MSNBC

Veteran prosecutors Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord discuss and dissect the cases against former President Donald Trump, including the historic indictments from the Manhattan D.A., Special Counsel Jack Smith and Fulton County D.A. Fani Willis.

Prosecuting Donald Trump

How do you build a legal case when the defendant is a former president? MSNBC legal contributors Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord have an idea. They’re two of the most well-respected and storied prosecutors in the country – and have prosecuted historic cases from Enron to the Benghazi attack. So, they’re the perfect people to tell us how a prosecutor -- from Alvin Bragg to Fani Willis to Jack Smith – might think about prosecuting a former president.

Prosecuting Donald Trump: A Primer

A Manhattan grand jury has voted to indict Donald Trump – setting a new precedent for holding American leaders accountable. But how does a prosecutor like Alvin Bragg actually convince a jury to convict a former president? MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord tell us how prosecutors think about building a case against a former president.

The First Indictment

Donald Trump became the first ex-president to be arraigned on criminal charges Tuesday. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord tell us what happened inside that Manhattan courtroom, what stood out to them in the pages of the indictment and what it all tells us about how District Attorney Alvin Bragg plans to build his case.

The Manhattan Arraignment

"Now that Donald Trump has been indicted by the Manhattan D.A., attention is shifting to his other legal problems -- including Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigations. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord discuss Smith’s recent legal wins, how he could be building his cases against Trump – and how the GA election investigation plays into all of that."

All Eyes on Jack Smith

Donald Trump and his allies are escalating their attacks on Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis and Jack Smith. Would any other defendant get away with this? MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord weigh in on how the prosecutors and NYC judge should handle this – and what it could mean for their cases.

The Trump Offensive

Trump’s legal woes deepening with a civil rape case getting underway in New York and a big development in Fani Willis’ Georgia investigation. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord dig into what all of that means for the former president. Plus, former House General Counsel Doug Letter joins to talk about the ex-prosecutor set to testify before Congress about Alvin Bragg’s Trump case. He has 4 decades of experience as a top DOJ attorney and several years as the top lawyer for the U.S. House of Representatives.

E. Jean Carroll v. Trump

Despite Donald Trump’s objections, Mike Pence testified before the Jan. 6th grand jury for several hours last week. But if you strip away the insurrection and the attempt to overturn the election, did Trump also try to solicit a crime of violence against Pence himself? MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord get into that and what it could all mean for Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation.

Mike Pence Testifies

At least 8 of Georgia’s “fake electors” have received immunity deals as part of Fulton County DA Fani Willis’ 2020 election probe. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord tell us what that could mean for Donald Trump and a possible second indictment. Plus, Trump will not testify in the E. Jean Carroll civil rape case as closing arguments begin. We’ll get into what could be behind his decision.

Fani Willis’ Immunity Deals

Donald Trump has made history yet again, becoming the first former president to be found liable for sexual abuse and defamation. The jury rejected E. Jean Carroll’s rape claim but ordered Trump to pay $5 million in damages. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord tell us what this unprecedented verdict means for the ex-president.

$5 million In damages

Did Donald Trump’s comments at last week’s town hall put him in even greater legal jeopardy? MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord weigh in on what he said that could hurt him.

An Incriminating Town Hall

Donald Trump has become the first former president to face federal prosecution. A grand jury in Miami has charged him with 37 criminal counts in special counsel Jack Smith’s documents probe. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord take a closer look at what we know so far and why these charges are so important.
