Summary

Megyn Kelly begins the show addressing the latest indictment of former President Donald Trump, this time related to running a "criminal conspiracy" in Georgia. Then lawyers Dave Aronberg and Mike Davis join the show to talk about the Georgia indictment of Trump and 18 others, the details of the "RICO" case, who Georgia DA Fani Willis is, the comparisons to Jack Smith’s case, whether the trial can happen before the 2024 election, options for appeal and potentially overturning a conviction, and more. And then Comfortably Smug, Josh Holmes, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook, host of the Ruthless podcast, join to discuss whether the indictments help or hurt Trump politically, Rachel Maddow's embarrassing interview of Hillary Clinton, what will happen in next week's GOP debate without Trump, the importance of Iowa, what that crazy plane lady cursing about the "not real" person was talking about, people in America who believe in lizard people, how institutions have deservedly lost the trust of Americans, the ways people end up going down rabbit holes due to this lack of trust, and more.

and it is largely based on a Georgia state law against racketeering, a law typically

used to target mobsters, prosecutor Fanny Willis alleges that Trump's comments, public

0:36.5

and private, that he had actually won Georgia's electoral votes that ballots were fraudulently

0:41.8

cast for Joe Biden, that election officials had allegedly manipulated votes in favor of

0:47.0

Joe Biden and more were all part of a criminal scheme by Trump and his cronies to steal

the election.

She also zeroes in on Trump's efforts to get Vice President Mike Pence to go along with

a proposal devised by Trump's attorneys to swing the election in his favor after

the vote.

1:06.4

The plan laid out in a memo written by Attorney John Eastman and another lawyer, both

of whom, are now indicted, suggests that Team Trump could get Mike Pence to disregard

1:17.1

the electoral votes in several swing states and to instead recognize so-called fake or

1:23.0

alternate slates of electors from such states that would then cast their electoral votes

1:28.3

for Trump instead of Biden, the rationale being that the actual votes coming out of those

1:34.1

states were allegedly not to be trusted and therefore the real winner Trump was entitled

1:39.9

to the support of the electors.

1:43.2

This is also part of Jack Smith's January 6th indictment that came down earlier this month.

1:49.2

As expected, Willis casts certain phone calls as criminal as well, including one on January
