Mark Meadows Takes Enormous Risk Testifying in Bid to Move Georgia Trump Case to Federal Court
Mark Meadows, former White House chief of staff, testified in federal court regarding his request to move his Georgia election interference case from state to federal court. Meadows faces two felony charges and argues that he acted as a federal officer and should be granted immunity. The indictment alleges that Meadows arranged a call between Trump and the Georgia secretary of state, where Trump asked to "find" enough votes to block Biden's victory. Meadows denied instructing a White House aide to draft a strategy memo for disrupting the electoral certification process. Fulton county district attorney argues that Meadows violated the Hatch Act. Trump and other defendants are set to be arraigned on September 6.
