Andrew Weissmann: 本期节目讨论了特朗普律师团队利用最高法院豁免权案件来拖延纽约和佛罗里达州案件审判的策略。Weissmann 指出，此策略在法律上站不住脚，因为两起案件的性质与1月6日事件的案件不同。在佛罗里达州案件中，特朗普声称其行为是在其总统职权范围内进行的，但这发生在其卸任之后，因此该论点站不住脚。在纽约州案件中，特朗普试图阻止某些证据的使用，理由是这些证据是在其总统任期内产生的，但这与指控无关。Weissmann 认为，特朗普的行为与其声称的清白和寻求公正审判不相符，他试图不惜一切代价避免任何事实和法律约束的审判。 Mary McCord: McCord 同意 Weissmann 的观点，并补充说，特朗普在纽约州案件中提出的动议的真正目的是拖延审判，而不是阻止证据的使用。她还讨论了特朗普被判赔偿E. Jean Carroll 8300万美元诽谤损害赔偿，并已为此提供9100万美元的保释金，这引发了对其财务状况和潜在利益冲突的担忧。McCord 指出，特朗普继续诽谤E. Jean Carroll，尽管陪审团已经裁定他犯有诽谤罪。她认为，金钱赔偿不足以阻止特朗普继续诽谤行为。 Mary McCord: McCord 进一步分析了特别检察官Robert Hur 对拜登处理机密文件的调查报告。报告得出结论，证据不足以对拜登提起指控，并与特朗普的情况形成对比。McCord 指出，Hur 的报告区分了拜登和特朗普处理机密文件的方式，并强调了拜登的配合程度。她还讨论了亚利桑那州大陪审团已向2020年虚假选举人发出传票，这表明对虚假选举人计划的调查仍在继续。

Trump's legal team seeks delays in multiple trials using immunity claims, focusing on the Mar-a-Lago and Manhattan cases.

Shownotes Transcript

In a last-ditch effort to delay, delay, delay- Donald Trump’s legal team submitted a motion on Monday to pause the New York trial on election interference (a.k.a. the ‘hush money’ case) until the Supreme Court decides on immunity. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord break that down, and how it differs from the motion to dismiss the Florida classified documents case. Then, they highlight the $91 million bond posted by the former president in the E. Jean Carroll case, as he appeals that decision. And a look behind the curtain as Special Counsel Robert Hur testifies before the House Judiciary Committee about his report on Biden’s handling of classified documents. Lastly, on the radar: an Arizona grand jury issues subpoenas in that states’ fake elector scheme.
