I just want to know how many Private Conversations John Eastman had with Ginni Thomas and his LONGTIME Associate Clarence Thomas between Nov 2020 and Jan 6 . After all they Eastman worked as Clerk for Clarence for many years

[DaveK]

Eastman says he will "share his Constitutional expertise with the other defendants". Considering they are mostly where they are at because of Eastman, that could be a problem.

Many strong men, yuge men came up behind me, tears on their cheeks, their voice were trembling and say "Sir, you just dropped your soap"

I recommend that we allow the criminals to implicate themselves.
Saves time!

I remember when Walter Cronkite was the news person everyone trusted. I don't know if Mr. Cronkite would have ever quoted hip-hop in making a point (As a musician that can actually play an instrument I don't care for it, but when you use its examples it's always relevant). For me, you are that news person. Your knowledge as a lawyer is perfect for these times. Beyond that your honesty and ability to explain complex issues in a way that lay-people like myself can understand and trust makes you my modern-day Cronkite. Thank you for your great work.

Roger Stone is someone my grandmother would have called “odd.” Straight out of a comic book.

[Mclaren]

Stone actually Documenting his "back door dealings" shows an astounding amount of hubris...

[kidcopernicus]

Ari Melber is a National Treasure. and a Hip Hop legend!! Literally the best news show and the best on-air presentation of any show out there. I can feel myself growing smarter as I watch. Melber/Wiley

🎶"That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang."🎶-Sam Oooo...please, please, say Georgia still has them🙏 Please🥺

[patbrennan]

Three words sums it all up, " GUILTY AS CHARGED" Now lock them all up, for life.

[shiddykiddy]

Electoral College better not even THINK about picking trump again. 😡

[sambabisky]

I would say anything other than a straight up answer "the client is paying of course" indicates Eastman is being kept in line with the payment of the fees by a third party.

[Qikk-kqyo]

If they broke rules, that's evidence of a crime and guilt.

I find this comment interesting: "It is inconceivable how a huge chunk of the population have gone all in, no matter what for Trump. A failed reality tv star, failed casino owner, banned from running a charity." We in Latin America have been plagued by such irrational nonsense in our politics for almost 200 years now. It's called populism. Populism is quite a nasty thing to behold. That the United States escaped this scourge for roughly 225 years is nothing short of a miracle. Welcome to the club! :D

" I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
Source: Shelley’s Poetry and Prose (1977)

[jannanijland]

I learn so much about the law from your show, Ari!

[DCell]

The source a lawyer receives their compensation from should definitely be a matter of public record. It shows just who the lawyer is working for and shines a light on conflict of interest and potential intimidation tactics.

[Derguz]

As a dane.. This must be the first time I've heard of danish misinformation. Stone can argue that there's some context missing, but to claim that a US ally, a democracy with far sterner laws regulating media than the US - keeping news honest, is honestly so stupid that I can't really be offended.

[jkvelasquez]

For Trump, loyalty is a ONE WAY street.

[meDonnygang]

Lock him up, lock him up, lock Him/Them up!😊
