Mark Meadows has generally danced through the raindrops except in Fulton County; but Arizona is Fulton County II for him. His overall strategy may have run aground in the state prosecutions. And remember: he is the single best source about Trump's conduct.

What's better than being live on set w/ Stephanie Ruhle on 11th Hour ? well maybe nothing, but definitely a sweetener to be w/ my friend Glenn Kirschner (+ Mark Leibovich) to talk Arizona indictments and Trump trial at 11 pm ET.

A bit of a scramble behind the scenes to hit 30 Rock in time, but thanks very much Chris Hayes for having me on to discuss the breaking news, which is no less serious than other states, and maybe more so b/c many of the 7 in Trump circle running out of $.

All 11 phony electors sued Pence to, as Kelli Ward put it, 'ensure he understands that he has the power to do constitutional duty on January 6. And we expect him to do it.'

Not just the electors but a bunch of Trump insiders -- including Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, attorneys Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, John Eastman and Christina Bobb--will be indicted in Arizona

Arizona indicts 11 phony electors, and trump is an unindicted co-conspirator. Scheme is of a piece w/ other states, including Fulton County. looking forward to discussing on All In with Chris Hayes coming up.

I'll be curious to hear-prob Thursday-if something happened b/t Pecker and Trump around late 2015 such that he didn't want to be involved in the same way as w/ McDougal & Dino when Stormy Daniels came forward. But sure doesn't seem to be bad blood b/t them based on his testimony

Blanche needs badly to work hard to regain Merchan's trust, but he's between a rock and a hard place b/c he can't look weak in front of his crazy, unreasonable client.

A really bad day: when judge says “You’re losing all credibility with the court.” A worse day: when judge says that in front of your client. A yet worse day: when judge says that in front of your client, who is Donald Trump.

“Such testimony wd likely appall jurors who already have some notion of Trump’s sleaziness. It’s one of several reasons that we sh not expect him to testify.Trump’s more likely role in court over the coming weeks will be to sit still and seethe silently.” latimes.com/opinion/story/…

OK sports fans, the jury in the Trump trial will be hearing a lot more damning evidence then just the Stormy Daniels episode, and a virtual avalanche of it if Trump testifies.  Here’s why:

This was a great conversation with Marc E. Elias and Democracy Docket that very much got into the nitty gritty details of Thursday's argument. Thanks for having me!
