Andrew Weissmann和Mary McCord分析了特朗普试图阻止1月6日案审判的策略，以及检方试图让审判按计划进行的回应。他们讨论了检方提出的上诉策略，该策略强调即使自动暂停生效，法官也有权处理已充分论证的动议，并且某些事项与上诉无关。他们还讨论了检方向最高法院提出的上诉请求，以及检方对特朗普广泛证据开示请求的回应。 Mary McCord详细阐述了威斯康星州十名虚假特朗普选举人达成的民事诉讼和解，以及剩余被告的合作情况。她解释了和解的条款，包括选举人公开承认他们的行为是推翻2020年大选努力的一部分，以及他们同意与检方合作的承诺。她还讨论了这些选举人可能面临刑事起诉的可能性，以及他们是否需要与其他州的检察官合作。

MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord break down Smith’s strategy and what this could mean for the former president’s other criminal cases. Plus, they discuss news out of Wisconsin where ten fake Donald Trump electors settled a civil lawsuit admitting their actions were part of an effort to overturn the 2020 election.
