>>> THANK YOU SO PRUCH FOR
>>> THANK YOU SO PRUCH FOR
LETTING US INTO YOUR HOMES
DURING THESE TRULY EXTRAORDINARY
TIMES.
WE ARE GRATEFUL.
THE BEAT WITH ARI MELBER STARTS
RIGHT NOW.
>>> WELCOME TO "THE BEAT."
EVEN AS SOME CONVICTED TRUMP
AIDES ALSO THREATEN PUTIN-STYLE
ATTACKS ON OPPONENTS IF THEY
ACTUALLY GET TRUMP RE-ELECTED.
NOW, THIS BIG NEWS COMES AS A
CALIFORNIA JUDGE HAS RULED
AGAINST TRUMP LAWYER JOHN
EASTMAN TODAY WHO ALSO
SEPARATELY AWAITS A CRIMINAL
TRIAL IN GEORGIA.
AND THESE MOUNTING LEGAL
SETBACKS FOR EASTMAN ARE
SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE HE WAS THE
LEGAL MASTERMIND AND ARCHITECT
OF KEY PLANKS OF THE COUP PLOTS
AS THOSE JANUARY 6th HEARINGS
SHOWED.
>> ADOPT A SLATE OF ELECTORS
YOURSELVES.
>> HE STARTED TO ASK ME ABOUT
SOMETHING DEALING WITH GEORGIA,
PRESERVING SOMETHING POTENTIALLY
FOR APPEAL.
>> I DON'T THINK IT'S JUST YOUR
AUTHORITY TO DO THAT, BUT QUITE
FRANKLY I THINK YOU HAVE A DUTY
TO DO THAT.
>> DID EASTMAN ADMIT BEFORE THE
PRESIDENT IT WOULD VIOLATE THE
ELECTORAL COUNT ACT?
>> MR. EASTMAN ACKNOWLEDGED THAT
WAS THE CASE, EVEN WHAT HE
VIEWED AS AM MORE PALATABLE
OPTION WOULD VIOLATE SEVERAL
PROVISIONS.
>> I SAID TO HIM ARE YOU OUT OF
YOUR EFFING MIND.
I ONLY WANT TO HEAR TWO WORDS
COMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH FROM
NOW ON -- ORDERLY TRANSITION.
>> ORDERLY TRANSITION.
THOSE DAMNING ACCOUNTS CAME FROM
PEOPLE WHO GENERALLY BACKED
DONALD TRUMP'S POLICIES BUT DID
STOP SHORT OF THE COUP EASTMAN
WAS PLOTTING ON TRUMP'S BEHALF.
A JUDGE JUST RULED EASTMAN
SHOULD BE DISBARRED, DISPELLED
FROM HIS PROFESSION AS A
LIFELONG ATTORNEY OVER HIS
CONDUCT IN THOSE PLOTS.
THE JUDGE CITING EASTMAN'S LIES
AND NEGLIGENCE RARLDING THE 2020
ELECTION TRUMP LOST AND FINDING
THE STATE BAR INVESTIGATIVE UNIT
DID PROVE EASTMAN CONSPIRED WITH
TRUMP TO OBSTRUCT A LAWFUL
FUNCTION OF THE GOVERNMENT
THROUGH THE JANUARY 6th PLOT.
EASTMAN AND ANOTHER INDICTED
TRUMP PLOTTER, JEFFREY CLARK,
ARE BOTH AT RISK OF LOSING THEIR
LAW LICENSES, AND THAT'S HUGE.
THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN SEARCHED BY
AGENTS IN THE SEPARATE FEDERAL
CASE.
YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THAT PRETTY
DRAMATIC AND UNUSUAL FOOTAGE
HERE ON YOUR SCREEN.
BEING DISBARRED FORMS A WARNING
TO OTHER LAWYERS WHO MIGHT
PONDER SIMILAR ACTIONS ON BEHALF
OF, YES, DONALD TRUMP RIGHT NOW
BUT OTHER POLITICIANS IN THE
FUTURE.
IT'S AN IMPORTANT LINE IN THE
SAND BECAUSE SOME ANTI-DEMOCRACY
LAWYERS MIGHT ARGUE, WELL, IF
THEY CAN FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO
SOMETHING THAT'S NOT TECHNICALLY
A FELONY, MAYBE THEY CAN GO
RIGHT UP TO THAT LINE.
HERE WE SEE THE BAR PROCESS IN
SEVERAL STATES SHOWING EVEN IT
LAWYERS USE THEIR KNOWLEDGE TO
BE TRICKY IT CAN STOP THEM FROM
PRACTICING LAW EVER AGAIN.
FOR MOST PEOPLE IT IS THEIR
LIFE, A MAIN SOURCE OF REVENUE
AND A BIG DEAL AND THAT IS
SEPARATE FROM WHETHER THEY ARE
FOUND TO HAVE COMMITTED CRIMES.
BOTH OF THESE MEN ARE PRESUMED
TO BE INNOCENT LEGALLY AND ALSO
AWAIT CRIMINAL TRIALS.
GEORGIA WILL DETERMINE THEIR
CRIMINAL LIABILITY WHEN THEY GET
THEIR DAY IN COURT.
THE OTHER INDIVIDUAL, JEFFREY
CLARK, WHO WE'VE BEEN COVERING
WAS BACK IN COURT YESTERDAY IN A SEPARATE BUT OBVIOUSLY RELATED
SEPARATE BUT OBVIOUSLY RELATED
DISBARMENT HEARING WHERE HE JUST
STOPPED THE QUESTIONS.
>> THAT I WILL INVOKE THE FIFTH
AS TO, I WILL INVOKE EXECUTIVE
PRIVILEGE, LAW ENFORCEMENT
PRIVILEGE, DELIBERATE PROCESS
PRIVILEGE, AND ATTORNEY-CLIENT
PRIVILEGE.
THE FIFTH AMENDMENT, THE
EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE, LAW
ENFORCEMENT PRIVILEGE, DELIVERY
TO PROCESS PRIVILEGE.
EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE AND THE
OTHER THREE AND I'M TAKING THE
FIFTH.
>> AND THE OTHER THREE AND I'M
TAKING THE FIFTH.
IT'S ALMOST LIKE, HEY, I'VE GOT
SO MANY REASONS TO BE
PRIVILEGED.
AND LEGALLY HE MAY INDEED HAVE
THAT RIGHT.
FOR EXAMPLE, ONE OF THE RIGHTS
YOU'RE AFFORDED IN OUR
CONSTITUTION IS THAT IF YOU'RE
FACING POTENTIAL PROSECUTION AND
IMPRISONMENT, WHICH IS A VERY
BIG DEAL, YOU CANNOT BE FORCED
TO ANSWER QUESTIONS TO PROVIDE
TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE AGAINST
YOURSELF NOT ONLY IN THAT
PROSECUTION PROCEEDING BUT IN
OTHER RELATED JUDICIAL AND LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS.
SO HE HAS THAT RIGHT.
HERE'S THE BAD NEWS, THOUGH.
WHEN YOU CLAIM THAT RIGHT,
YOU'RE ONLY GETTING OUT OF
ANSWERING THE QUESTION.
YOU'RE NOT GETTING OUT OF BEING
DISBARRED IF THE EVIDENCE
SUPPORTS IT.
AND YOU'RE CERTAINLY NOT HELPING
YOUR DEFENSE BECAUSE IF YOU DID
HAVE WORDS TO EXPLAIN CLEARLY
WHY YOU DIDN'T COMMIT A CRIME OR
CONDUCT THAT YOU COULD BE
DISBARRED FOR, WELL, THIS WOULD
BE THE TIME TO SHARE IT.
SO THESE OFFICIALS IN THIS
PROCESS WILL DECIDE WHETHER IT
WARRANTS DISBARMENT.
BUT THERE'S A BROADER PATTERN
HERE THAT HOWEVER LONG IT TOOK
REALLY MATTERS.
AND YES, TRUMP HAS SHOWN HE
LIKES TO DELAY THINGS.
IT'S HIS FIRST AND FAVORITE
LEGAL TACTIC, AND SOMETIMES
WE'VE SHOWN WAYS IT HAS WORKED.
BUT THE DELAYS FOR THESE OTHER
CASES HAVE NOT WORKED.
THEY ARE FAILING.
CLARK AND EASTMAN JOIN FOUR
OTHER TRUMP LAWYERS FACING
DISCIPLINARY ACTION AND A LOT
MORE.
GIULIANI'S LAW LICENSE ALREADY
SUSPENDED IN NEW YORK.
HE ALSO FACES DISBARMENT IN D.C.
ELLIS, POWAL, AND CHESEBRO
CHARGED AND CONVICTED.
THEY'VE ALREADY PLED GUILTY IN
THE GEORGIA RICO CASE, AND THAT
ALSO PUTS PRESSURE ON THEIR
EFFORT TO EVER PRACTICE LAW
AGAIN.
INDEED BEING CONVICTED IS WORSE
THAN BEING DISBARRED.
SO THOSE ARE THE LAWYERS.
I'M SHOWING THAT TO YOU AND I'M
ABOUT TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING
ELSE, BUT THE LAWYERS MATTER
EXTRA BECAUSE I CAN TELL YOU
BEFORE THE LAWYERS HATCHED THE
JAN 6 PLOT, TEN YEARS AGO
JANUARY 6th WAS NOT A DATE IN
AMERICAN POLITICS OR HISTORY.
IT WAS NOT SOMETHING THE NEWS
COVERED A LOT.
IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE
LOOKED AT SOME EXTRA TIME TO DO
ANYTHING ANYTHING BECAUSE OF
COURSE BY JANUARY 6th EVERYTHING
HAS BEEN FINISHED.
IT'S BEEN REVIEW AT THE STATE
LEVEL, THE COURT LEVEL.
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO DO.
WHICH IS WHAT THEY DID AND THE
VIOLENCE IS ALSO
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
YOU DON'T HAVE THE VICE
PRESIDENT COME IN AND REVERSE
THE OUTCOME OF AN ENTIRE
NATIONAL ELECTION ON JANUARY
6th.
NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE, DIDN'T
WORK THIS TIME, NOT SUPPOSED TO
HEMIIN THE FUTURE.
SHOW HOW DID THAT GET SO
POPULARIZED THAT DONALD TRUMP
LEARNED ABOUT IT AND CARED ABOUT
IT?
BECAUSE HE AIN'T NO
CONSTITUTIONAL SCHOLAR.
HOW DID ALL THOSE PEOPLE COME
THAT DAY?
ALL OF THIS STUFF STARTED WITH
THOSE LAWYERS.
AND THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE AROUND
POLITICS WHO KNOW ABOUT POLITIC
AND MANY PEOPLE AROUND DONALD
TRUMP WHO KNOW ABOUT LYING.
BUT IT TOOK A RELATIVELY
SMALLINABLE OF LAWYERS TO ABUSE
THEIR KNOWLEDGE, TO GO BEYOND
ZEALOUS ADVOCACY FOR A CLIENT,
WHICH ISD, AND GO
INTO SOMETHING ELSE.
SO THAT'S THE LAWYERS.
THEY STARTED IT.
THEY MASTERMINDED IT.
THEY MADE JANUARY 6th A THING AT
LEAST FOR MAGA CONSPIRACY
THEORISTS.
BUT THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF OTHER
FOLKS, KEY PLAYERS IN TRUMP'S
ORBED FACING ACCOUNTABILITY.
WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF ROOM AND
STAMPS ON THE CHART, BUT WE'RE
USING THE CHART ACCURATELY SO
I'LL WALK YOU THROUGH SOME
HIGHLIGHTS.
PETER NAVARRO IS THE FIRST TRUMP
WHITE HOUSE OFFICIAL TO ACTUALLY
REPORT TO PRISON AS WE DISCUSS
THIS NEWS TONIGHT.
HE HAS NOW BEEN INCARCERATED
SINCE LAST WEEK OVER DEFYING JAN
6 INVESTIGATORS.
STEVE BANNON WAS CONVICTED ON
THE SAME CHARGES.
IF HE DOES NOT GET A JUDGE TO
INTERVENE, HE'LL ALSO REPORT TO
PRISON LIKE NAVARRO.
THERE'S AN UNKNOWN AND
UNINDICTED COCONSPIRATORTER JACK
SMITH REFERENCED TO THE JANUARY
6th CASE ALTHOUGH SO FAR THE
NAME IS NOT PUBLIC.
YOU SEE THAT IN THE LOWER RIGHT.
THERE WAS THE NUMBER ONE
OFFICIAL DURING ALL THIS, ALL
THE WAY UP AND THROUGH JANUARY
6th IN THE TRUMP WHITE HOUSE,
MARK MEADOWS.
HE IS A WITNESS IN WASHINGTON
AND HE'S BEEN INDICTED FOR RICO
IN GEORGIA.
THE DOMINO'S FALLEN ALL AROUND
TRUMP WHO HIMSELF WE REVEAL HERE
FACES HIS OWN CRIMINAL TRIALS.
JUST IF YOU LOOK AT THE COUP,
PUT ASIDE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS,
PUT ASIDE THE NEW YORK BUSINESS
ISSUES OR THE CIVIL FRAUD CASE.
JUST ON THE COUP, HE HAS TWO
INDICTMENTS AND THE DAJ CASE
COULD STILL GO TO TRIAL BEFORE
THE ELECTION DEPENDING ON WHAT
THE SUPREME COURT DOES AND OTHER
THINGS.
PROSECUTORS WANT THOSE TRIALS
EVEN AMIDST THE PACKED ELECTION
YEAR, THE ARGUMENT BEING THE
FURTHER TO THE RIGHT THESE
TRIALS GO IS NOT BECAUSE OF
PROSECUTORS, IT'S BECAUSE OF
TRUMP AND THE DELAY TACTIC, SO
YOU CAN'T SIMULTANEOUSLY DELAY
THINGS AND DRAG THEM OUT FOR A
YEAR AND COMPLAIN THEY ARE CLOSE
TO ELECTION WHEN YOU OR THE
DEFENDANT MADE THEM CLOSE TO
ELECTION, THAT AT LEAST IS THE
LEGAL ARGUMENT.
I WILL RESTATE AGAIN TRUMP LIKE
THOSE OTHER DEFENDANTS I
MENTION, THOUGH, IN EACH OF
THOSE TRIALS IS LEGALLY PRESUMED
HE COULD EASILY BE ON TRUMP'S
SHORT LIST FOR A VERY POWERFUL
ROLE IN ANY NEW ADMINISTRATION
AFTER ALL HE HAD THE NUMBER ONE
ROLE OF CAMPAIGN CHAIR IN '16.
HE SERVED IN THE WHITE HOUSE AT
A HIGH LEVEL.
HE AND TRUMP HAD FALLING OUT BUT
GOT BACK TOGETHER BECAUSE TRUMP
ULTIMATELY USED PARDONING POWERS
FOR HIM.
MR. BANNON IS VERY PUBLICLY
TELLING HIS VIEWERS HE PLANS IF
HE CAN TO BE A PART OF A TRUMP
SECOND TERM WHERE POLITICAL
PROSECUTIONS AGAINST DEMOCRATS
ARE ON THE TABLE, WHERE A
PUTIN-STYLE EFFORT OF GOING
AFTER OPPONENTS FOR WHAT THEY
MIGHT HAVE DONE AN HONEST
INVESTIGATION BUT JUST WHO THEY
ARE AND A POLITICAL ATTACK.
MEANING HE BASICALLY SAYS
DEMOCRATS WILL BE IMPRISONED IN
ANY SECOND TRUMP TERM.
>> THE EVENING AFTER WE'VE WON,
THE ACCOUNTABILITY PROJECT'S
GOING TO START, AND IT'S GOING
TO BE THOROUGH THIS TIME.
IT'S GOING TO BE THEY'RE GOING
TO BE IN PRISON.
YES, PRISON. >> QUOTE, THEY'RE GOING TO BE IN
>> QUOTE, THEY'RE GOING TO BE IN
PRISON, YES, PRISON.
THAT IS A SIGN TO SEND A MESSAGE
TO WAKE PEOPLE UP, TO SCARE
PEOPLE, TO INSTILL FEAR.
IT'S ALL IN PUBLIC, RIGHT?
IF IT WERE JUST A PRIVATE PLAN,
YOU MIGHT SEND PRIVATE MESSAGES
AND WRITE UP PRIVATE BLUE
PRINTS.
THAT'S A SECRETIVE APPROACH.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT LOOKS
MORE LIKE AT LEAST AN ATTEMPT AT
AN ASPECT OF THE PUTIN PLAY BOOK
WHERE THE USE IN SINGLING OUT OF
GOVERNMENT POWER AGAINST YOUR
OPPONENTS DOESN'T JUST TAKE THEM
OFF THE TABLE OR AS IT SOMETIMES
HAS BEEN IN RUSSIA, WORSE, BUT
IT ALSO SENDS A MESSAGE TO
EVERYBODY ELSE MAYBE YOU DON'T
WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED IN THAT,
YOU DON'T WANT TO BE INVOLVED IN
THAT.
YOU WANT TO GO BACK AND LIVE
YOUR LIFE AND AVOID BEING
GROUPED IN WITH THIS GROUP OF
PEOPLE MR. BANNON SAYS ARE GOING
TO BE IN, QUOTE, YES, PRISON.
USUALLY, TRADITIONALLY IN
AMERICAN POLITICS IN EITHER
PARTY IF PEOPLE WHO WORKED AT
THE WHITE HOUSE AT THAT LEVEL,
I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE RANDOM
LOUD GADFLIES, BUD RANDOM PEOPLE
IF YOUR BOSS SAID TO THEM ARE
