3
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,400
We are watching
things in Atlanta.

4
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,880
Former President Trump
expected to turn himself in

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,440
in the election interference
case in Georgia.

6
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,120
His plane has landed.

7
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,200
Now he's headed to the
Fulton County Courthouse,

8
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,400
where he will be booked on the allegations

9
00:00:35,480 --> 00:00:37,160
for the 2020 election.

10
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,360
Thank you very much.

11
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,400
The State of Georgia

12
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:45,520
has brought criminal proceedings

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,000
against former President Donald Trump

14
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,360
for one of the most audacious
crimes in American history.

15
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,920
He's charged with conspiracy

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,400
to overturn the 2020
presidential election.

17
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,560
The former president
is going inside the building right now.

18
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,560
We may see a mugshot at the end of this,
the first for a former American president.

19
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,280
This film follows the people
investigating Trump's alleged crimes

20
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,360
before he has another chance
to reach the White House.

21
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,440
A criminal conspiracy
to overturn the results

22
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,560
of the 2020 presidential
election in this state.

23
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:35,080
The indictment brings felony charges
against Donald John Trump,

24
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,600
Rudolph William Louis Giuliani,

25
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,320
Stephen Cliffgard Lee.

26
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,240
We hear from those accused
alongside Donald Trump.

27
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,160
Trevian C. Kutti.

28
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,680
I practised my mugshot
for like two hours

29
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,040
because I knew it was gonna be history.

30
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,800
All of the prisoners all
the way down the long hall,

31
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:05,680
they were like, "Trump!
Trump! Trump!"

32
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,560
And I was like, "Yeah!"

33
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,520
John Charles Eastman.

34
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,920
I'm indicted co-conspirator
number three in Georgia.

35
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,280
We did nothing wrong.

36
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,600
Did I act like a mafia boss?
Of course not.

37
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,880
Do I think that Donald Trump
acted like a mafia boss?

38
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,120
Absolutely not.

39
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,520
Donald Trump was and remains convinced
that the election was stolen from him.

40
00:02:34,920 --> 00:02:38,840
And we meet those clearing Trump's path
back to Washington D.C.

41
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,040
I believe that these cases were generated
to try to harm Donald Trump.

42
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,200
This is a political prosecution.

43
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:49,960
Judges,

44
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:52,600
jurors,

45
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:55,760
and witnesses.

46
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,080
It's a little intimidating

47
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,840
to take on the most powerful
person in the country

48
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:05,000
who makes no bones about
going after his enemies.

49
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,760
I got a text message that said,
"We're watching you. You better run."

50
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:17,440
{\an8}We
will make America glorious again!

51
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,360
With the State of Georgia
once again back in the limelight...

52
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,480
So, Georgia, it is so good to be back.

53
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,440
And I am very clear,

54
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,120
the path to the White House
runs right through this state.

55
00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:34,440
This is the inside story

56
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,720
of the prosecution of a president.

57
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,400
This is their last stop
before they'll go to archive.

58
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,880
We're using this.
We're running out of room.

59
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:23,320
{\an8}Fani Willis is the district attorney
of Fulton County, Georgia.

60
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,320
I have no interest in headlines
or making a name for myself.

61
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:27,960
I'm in my dream job.

62
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,000
All I ever wanted to be since
I was a child is a lawyer.

63
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,640
Once I became a prosecutor,

64
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,160
there was no other job
more appropriate for me.

65
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,480
I hate bullies. I love what I do.

66
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,480
I wanna be a part of
keeping our community safe.

67
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:47,120
She's investigating Donald Trump's alleged
efforts to overturn the election.

68
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,320
- Are you nervous?
- Not at all.

69
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,760
He's the president, former president.

70
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,920
Not at all.

71
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:02,840
Her findings lead her to believe
that the president and 18 others

72
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,440
were engaged in a criminal conspiracy.

73
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,120
The case against him begins
on election night, 2020.

74
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,800
Polls have just closed
in half a dozen states.

75
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,160
The most closely watched
state at this hour is Georgia,

76
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,680
which President Trump almost
certainly needs to win

77
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,520
if he's to secure a second term.

78
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,440
In the key swing states,

79
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,480
the vote margins are razor thin,
especially in the State of Georgia.

80
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,760
A few hours earlier,
Trump was leading in Georgia,

81
00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:55,880
but as results come in
from different districts,

82
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,640
it begins to look like
Trump might be in trouble.

83
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,080
{\an8}Georgia right now.

84
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,920
{\an8}President Trump's lead over Joe Biden

85
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,960
{\an8}is continuing to shrink.

86
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,240
{\an8}Democrats are dominating
the mail-in voting,

87
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:12,960
{\an8}dominating with a capital D.

88
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,000
Major news networks

89
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,920
are projecting that
Biden will secure Georgia

90
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:25,080
and therefore the presidency
of the United States.

91
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,120
Ladies and gentlemen,

92
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:33,920
the president of the United States,
Donald J Trump.

93
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:46,160
At 2:30 AM,
whilst ballots are still being counted,

94
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,840
Trump takes to the stage
at the White House.

95
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,480
Well, thank you very much.

96
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,280
Thank you.

97
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,480
We love you!

98
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:02,600
- We love you.
- Yeah!

99
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,240
Thank you. Thank you.

100
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,200
I appreciate it very much.

101
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:11,200
And I wanna thank the American people
for their tremendous support.

102
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,760
Millions and millions of
people voted for us tonight

103
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,320
and a very sad group of people

104
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,600
is trying to disenfranchise
that group of people,

105
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,880
and we won't stand for it.
We will not stand for it.

106
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:36,160
The results tonight have been phenomenal.
We have won Georgia.

107
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,320
We're up by 2.5%,

108
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,840
or 117,000 votes,

109
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,960
with only 7% left.

110
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:48,880
They're never gonna catch us.
They can't catch us.

111
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,160
We were winning everything

112
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,360
and all of a sudden it
was just called off.

113
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,720
This is a fraud on the American public.

114
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,400
This is an embarrassment to our country.

115
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,880
We were getting ready
to win this election.

116
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,520
Frankly, we did win this election.

117
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,080
How are
you feeling right now?

118
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,320
- Amazing!
- It's the best day of my life!

119
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,000
America has decided.

120
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,080
We did it. We did it, Joe.

121
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,640
You're gonna be the next president
of the United States.

122
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,880
Trump now
has just eight weeks

123
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,920
before he must hand over the presidency.

124
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,480
One two. One.
We good?

125
00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:48,520
He appoints former
New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani

126
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,400
as his lead lawyer to
challenge the election outcome.

127
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,880
What a beautiful day!
Thank you. Thank you for coming.

128
00:08:55,680 --> 00:08:58,680
Giuliani invites the press down
to an unlikely location

129
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,720
to deliver Trump's official response.

130
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,360
{\an8}Well, let me... First of all, obviously
he's not gonna concede

131
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,360
{\an8}when at least 600,000
ballots are in question.

132
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,880
{\an8}It's not my job to determine
if the ballots are right or not.

133
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:14,960
{\an8}It's their job.

134
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,040
They conducted themselves in a way that
suggests that there was fraud.

135
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:21,760
I voted for Donald Trump!

136
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,280
In Georgia,
Trump's claims are catching on.

137
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,760
Trump is the president!

138
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,600
- And will be for 4 more years.
- Yes!

139
00:09:32,680 --> 00:09:36,360
I won't accept the illegal votes.
I won't accept the dumping.

140
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,160
Come on, man.
You're gonna get all ballots

141
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,040
and all 100% of it is for Biden?
Come on, man.

142
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,640
Let's keep it peaceful, guys.
Please. Thank you.

143
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,280
Some supporters arrived armed

144
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,080
as they attempt to enter
a ballot counting centre.

145
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,080
My fears are they're gonna destroy
this nation.

146
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:55,480
Stop the elevator!

147
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,000
Meanwhile, America's next president
is waiting in the wings.

148
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,360
And it is now my great honour

149
00:10:05,560 --> 00:10:07,680
to introduce

150
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:12,480
the president-elect
of the United States of America,

151
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:13,960
Joe Biden.

152
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:16,880
Hello.

153
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,240
My fellow Americans,

154
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,800
we, the people,

155
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,920
we've won with the most votes

156
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,320
ever cast on a presidential ticket

157
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:30,680
in the history of the nation.

158
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,280
Hello, everybody.

159
00:10:36,680 --> 00:10:39,360
Mr. President, do you have any big plans
for your last Thanksgiving

160
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:40,760
at the White House?

161
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,320
Well, we don't know what is last
if you look at what's going on.

162
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,880
You have to really take
a look at what's going on.

163
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,480
They're finding tremendous
discrepancies in the votes

164
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:53,000
and nobody believes those numbers.

165
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:57,680
Those numbers are incorrect
numbers and people know it.

166
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,640
That's why you have people marching
all over the United States right now.

167
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,120
They know it was a rigged election.

168
00:11:02,680 --> 00:11:05,880
The people are very disappointed
that we were robbed.

169
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,360
We were robbed. I won that by hundreds
of thousands of votes.

170
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,200
Everybody knows it.
You go down to the streets,

171
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,000
there are Trump-Pence signs
all over the place.

172
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,160
This is Brad Raffensperger.
He's the secretary of state in Georgia

173
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,720
and the most senior
ranking election official.

174
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,120
President Trump
declared that he won Georgia.

175
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,240
And we just got a lot of, you know,
things that were alleged.

176
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,000
What were some of the allegations
that you were having to rebuff?

177
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,760
They said there was 2,400
non-registered voters. There were zero.

178
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,440
They said there were 66,000
underage voters. There were zero.

179
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,280
We did, actually, a 100% hand recount
of every single ballot.

180
00:11:56,680 --> 00:11:58,760
{\an8}We had five million paper ballots.

181
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,480
{\an8}And they pulled them all out
and they started counting every county

182
00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:06,240
and just added it all up to see
what the difference was.

183
00:12:06,680 --> 00:12:11,480
And actually, President Trump
did come up short by 11,800 votes.

184
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,920
The secretary of state,

185
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,920
and whether he's Republican or not,
this man, what he's done,

186
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,840
he's an enemy of the people.

187
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,760
It became apparent that he was committed
to, you know, what he had been told.

188
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,960
And I was just committed to
the facts and the rule of law.

189
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:41,480
And they diverged.

190
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,240
At the end of the day, it was
just stuff that was made up.

191
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,400
But not all Republicans agree.

192
00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:57,640
25 miles away, in a small
suburb in northern Atlanta,

193
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,440
lives Republican state
senator Brandon Beach.

194
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,040
Welcome to my home.
Come on in.

195
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:10,680
Like many in his neighbourhood,
Beach voted for Trump, and in 2020,

196
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,240
became a key Trump ally.

197
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,880
You know, MAGA stands for
Make America Great Again.

198
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,000
{\an8}Who could be against
making America great again?

199
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,600
{\an8}Ronald Reagan used that.

200
00:13:23,680 --> 00:13:27,480
{\an8}And Trump, that's all he wants to do,
is make America great again.

201
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,160
How could you be against that?

202
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,680
And people say,
"Oh, we're against MAGA."

203
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,000
I don't get it. I wanna make America
great again for my grandkids.

204
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,120
You know, I know him, and so I have
a tie to him, a personal tie.

205
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,960
And I want him to win.

206
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,120
In 2020, I was working on the Trump
campaign, so I was a Trump supporter.

207
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,080
I woke up and I thought he had won.

208
00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:01,200
I went to bed and then I found out
he'd lost Georgia by 11,000 votes.

209
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,520
Well, I was shocked, number one,

210
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,000
and then I wanted to get to
the bottom of what happened.

211
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,040
That's my job as a state senator,
is to find out what happened.

212
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,000
So we said, "We're going
to have a committee.

213
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,120
We're going to look into
it ourselves as a senate."

214
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:28,080
{\an8}Brandon Beach teams up
with other Republicans to investigate.

215
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,560
I hope we dig into it
and have investigations

216
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,120
and make sure this was a fair election.

217
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,800
Mr. Giuliani, are you a crook?

218
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,680
Miss, stop!

219
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,200
Mr. Mayor, would you talk about...

220
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:52,040
Trump's team decides to hold an urgent
hearing in the Georgia Capitol building,

221
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:56,600
claiming to have crucial evidence
of election fraud, a smoking gun.

222
00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,680
Distinguished members
of the committee,

223
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,480
thank you very much for
giving us this hearing.

224
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,760
I represent President Trump.

225
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,880
I really appreciate the opportunity
to get these facts out.

226
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,120
We've had some difficulty
getting a hearing,

227
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,960
but I appreciate it very, very much.

228
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,440
Meanwhile,
Donald Trump is tweeting

229
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,640
that everybody should hear
this explosive evidence.

230
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,800
I would like to introduce Jacki Pick,

231
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,960
who is going to introduce our video.

232
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,240
If you would tell us your name
and your position, please.

233
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,400
So, I'm Jacki Pick,
and I'm here as a volunteer.

234
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,720
I am a lawyer, but I'm not acting
as a lawyer in this case.

235
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,640
I'm just helping out the legal team here.

236
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,800
A volunteer shows a surveillance tape
produced by Trump's team

237
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,760
that they claim shows election
fraud in Atlanta, Georgia.

238
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,640
We have the tape.
You're looking at one big room here.

239
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,400
This is where the absentee
ballots and military ballots

240
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,200
are being tabulated on Election Day.

241
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,320
And you have, back in that corner,

242
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,560
the press and the Republican observers.

243
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,120
So, according to the witnesses,
the Republican observers,

244
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,040
there is a lady who has blond braids

245
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,800
who comes out to announce,
"We're going to stop counting.

246
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,160
Everyone go home."
And in fact, we see that.

247
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,480
Everyone clears out,

248
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,360
including the Republican
observers and the press.

249
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,880
But four people stay behind.

250
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,280
Watch this table.

251
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:31,880
There you go.

252
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,800
So now they're gonna start pulling these
ballots out from under this table.

253
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,840
I'm gonna call it a suitcase,
containers for ballots.

254
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,800
You also have boxes.
Those are being moved around the room.

255
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,160
You'll see them move into action
and begin scanning ballots.

256
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:54,520
So, what are these ballots doing there,
separate from all the other ballots?

257
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:55,800
And why are they only counting them

258
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,720
whenever the place is cleared
out with no witnesses?

259
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,000
One of them had the name
Ruby across her shirt.

260
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,680
Two election
workers are singled out:

261
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,280
Ruby Freeman, a 62-year-old grandmother,

262
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,280
and her daughter Shaye Moss.

263
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,520
I was at that hearing.

264
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,040
A lawyer out of Texas got up.

265
00:17:20,120 --> 00:17:23,040
Never seen her before,
had no clue who she was.

266
00:17:23,120 --> 00:17:26,800
{\an8}She would describe in detail
exactly what it was they were doing,

267
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,080
{\an8}but she would always put a spin on it.

268
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,800
How many ballots
went through those machines

269
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,560
in those two hours when there was no one
there to supervise, to be present?

270
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,440
We believe that could easily be,

271
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,680
and probably is certainly beyond
the margin of victory in this race.

272
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,520
Do you have anything else that you'd want
to point out about the video?

273
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,840
- I think that's everything, right?
- That's everything for now, yes.

274
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,120
All right. Thank you.

275
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:57,080
Oh, I was disgusted, I was upset.
I said, "What's going on here?"

276
00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,040
In the middle of the night,
they're counting votes.

277
00:18:00,120 --> 00:18:01,720
Nobody's there to watch.

278
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,840
And everybody was supposed to go home.

279
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,480
And it's on video. They didn't know the
video was on from a previous concert.

280
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,600
Georgia election officials

281
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,000
immediately begin investigating
the claims that are being made.

282
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,840
{\an8}We looked through,
because we are a law enforcement agency,

283
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,640
{\an8}we had 48 hours of tape to look through.

284
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,920
{\an8}We looked through it.
We catalogued everything.

285
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,480
It was found that,
as the count dragged on,

286
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,360
some election workers decided to go home,

287
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,440
but before they left, they placed ballots
that had not yet been scanned

288
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,720
in purpose-built ballot carriers.

289
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,600
You can see, I think, like,
58 minutes earlier that night,

290
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,680
they had placed the ballot carriers under
the table just to get them out of the way,

291
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,000
and they did it in plain view
of the monitors

292
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,520
and of the press who were all there.

293
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,720
However, election officials
wanted the count to continue,

294
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,560
so Ruby and Shaye, along with their
colleagues who stayed behind,

295
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,080
retrieved the ballots
and continued the count.

296
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,520
The Secretary of State's Office,
Georgia's Bureau of Investigations,

297
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,640
and the FBI carried out
a thorough investigation

298
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,360
and later found no evidence of wrongdoing.

299
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,240
When they showed it,

300
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,280
they said factually incorrect
things of what was going on.

301
00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:20,600
They made claims that were not true.

302
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,200
That video and that kind of narration

303
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:29,680
probably was one of the single most
destructive things that happened.

304
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:34,120
{\an8}Rudy Giuliani told state senators
that this election night video

305
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,560
{\an8}shows people taking out
at least four boxes of ballots

306
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,760
{\an8}and counting them after hours.

307
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:44,400
{\an8}Still, at the time,
news networks broadcast the footage.

308
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,720
Trump supporters widely share videos

309
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,480
from Ruby Freeman's social media,
identifying her.

310
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,720
So, anyway, I'm going back to work now.

311
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,760
Hey, Renee. I love you all.
I love you all so much.

312
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,240
Thank you.
I'm glad you like my eyewear.

313
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,240
And Giuliani's
false claims continue.

314
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:08,840
Earlier in the day, these two were engaged
in another apparent voter fraud

315
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,720
in which they were
passing around USB ports

316
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,080
as if they're vials of heroin or cocaine.

317
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:22,560
I mean, it's obvious to anyone who's
a criminal investigator or prosecutor

318
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,280
they are engaged in surreptitious illegal
activity again that day.

319
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,360
And that's a week ago and they're
still walking around Georgia. Why?

320
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:36,960
Should have been, they should have been,
should have been questioned already.

321
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:38,480
Their places of work,

322
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,600
their homes should have been searched
for evidence of ballots.

323
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,880
It's available to 300
million Americans to watch.

324
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,960
Someday somebody is gonna say,
"What the hell did you do about it?"

325
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,120
Five days later,

326
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,320
Ruby Freeman phones the police.

327
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,000
An unknown man has been
knocking on her front door

328
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,640
and loitering on her street.

329
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,920
Half the night,
they've parked right up there.

330
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,000
Yes, ma'am.

331
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,120
And at seven o'clock this morning,
they was parked up there.

332
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,720
That's harassing.

333
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:16,520
Hey, what's going on?

334
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,720
Yeah, my name's Stephen Lee,
and I'm a pastor.

335
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:24,040
This is Reverend Stephen Lee,
a pastor who's travelled from Illinois.

336
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,440
So I'm part of law enforcement, sir,
out in California

337
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:29,680
Okay.

338
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:34,080
Yeah, she was calling about the vehicle.
She said a red Ford was acting suspicious.

339
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,320
- It's me.
- Okay.

340
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,760
I knocked on the door earlier.
And I've tried getting her messages.

341
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,040
You know, she's terribly spooked.
I'm not here to hurt her,

342
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:45,200
I'm not here to cause any problems
or anything like that.

343
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:49,880
I can verify who I am for you,
for your satisfaction,

344
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,280
but I also don't want to create
trouble either.

345
00:21:52,360 --> 00:21:55,360
But it would be nice
if I could talk to her

346
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,720
and also get some truth
on what's going on.

347
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:00,880
Okay.

348
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,880
Prosecutors claim that the pastor
isn't visiting to offer moral support,

349
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,000
but is instead attempting to extract
a confession from Ruby Freeman.

350
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,720
I'll go over there
and see what she wants to do, but...

351
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:18,400
And if she doesn't want to,
you may wanna let her know that, you know,

352
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,480
I've got some pro bono service for her

353
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,520
if she's interested.

354
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,480
- Okay. You got some ID with you?
- Absolutely.

355
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,720
So the gentleman that was knocking
on your door, he's, I guess, a pastor.

356
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,560
He was saying that he was just trying
to get you some help if you wanted it.

357
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,720
- Oh, so you all talked to him?
- Yes, ma'am.

358
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,880
- I don't trust nobody.
- Okay, so you don't wanna talk to him?

359
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:48,840
No? Okay.

360
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,800
Even in the
presence of the police officer,

361
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,320
Ruby Freeman refuses
to speak to the pastor.

362
00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,160
- I'm not interested. I have a pastor.
- Okay. Yes, ma'am.

363
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,880
I ain't no sinner.
I've got a pastor.

364
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,200
Prosecutors claim
that he then contacts an individual

365
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,320
in the Republican
campaign team in Georgia.

366
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,640
They dispatch Trevian Kutti,
a crisis manager.

367
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,680
She flies over 700 miles to make
direct contact with Ruby Freeman.

368
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,080
Ruby rings the police again.

369
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,800
Yes, I'm Ruby Freeman.

370
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,400
I have different people coming
saying it's just a matter of time

371
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,080
that they are going to come
out for me and my family.

372
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,320
I need an officer to come out.

373
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,200
Okay.
Have they made threats tonight?

374
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,720
No, but they want to talk
with me.

375
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:58,120
They've gone to my mom house
at her address, saying that I need help.

376
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,880
This time, they saying they
came all the way from Chicago

377
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,280
because they heard about the incident.

378
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,320
Who would come all the way
from Chicago to talk to me?

379
00:24:15,360 --> 00:24:16,840
Cobb Police!

380
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,520
- You wanna come in?
- If you want me to, I can.

381
00:24:22,360 --> 00:24:23,440
Okay.

382
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,040
They were saying that they had flew in,
she had flew in.

383
00:24:28,120 --> 00:24:29,800
So somebody came to your door?

384
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,920
Yeah, these people
are coming to the...

385
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:41,880
{\an8}People who know me would describe me
as someone who's nonstop.

386
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,400
You can't take no for an answer
when you have to solve the problem.

387
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:55,000
I'm a fighter fighting
for the best outcome

388
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,600
for the entire whole of the world.

389
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,040
My name is Trevian Kutti,
I'm a crisis manager.

390
00:25:04,120 --> 00:25:07,600
I work for some of the biggest names
in the industry. I was given a call...

391
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:12,000
Trevian believes that the election is
stolen and that Ruby might be complicit.

392
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,640
She offers her services
as a crisis manager,

393
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,400
now that Ruby's identity
has been made public.

394
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,480
I got a call that a woman needed help.

395
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:27,320
And the person who I talked to said,
you know, "I can't go help her,

396
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:31,160
but there's just a situation going on.
But I know you can handle it."

397
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:35,520
So I went to see this woman.

398
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:37,800
Came to her home,

399
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,000
she didn't answer the door.

400
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,000
So, what I did was I said,

401
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,400
"Hey, this is who I am.
This is my number.

402
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,840
I'm leaving tomorrow.
I can meet today."

403
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,920
We don't have a lot of time,
but I'm here.

404
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,960
Let her know that we are not affiliated
with anything or anybody,

405
00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:00,240
but there's some things she should know
and she should know immediately...

406
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,640
You know, right about now,

407
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:07,880
I don't know if I need to talk to these
people, if they really can help me.

408
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,920
My flesh wants to say, "Yeah,
they could wanna come after me."

409
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:15,240
You know, I ain't dumb.

410
00:26:17,120 --> 00:26:20,360
So, what I wanted done was,

411
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,960
while you're here,
if you call them and say,

412
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:28,080
"Yes, she's willing to meet," you know,
"'cause the police is there.

413
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,720
And she'll meet with you
if the police is there."

414
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,560
Ruby is confused
by this series of unannounced visits.

415
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:38,120
She asks the police to oversee
her meeting with Trevian.

416
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,360
I get a call from a deputy

417
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,480
from the Cobb County
Police Department saying,

418
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,080
"Are you so and so and so and so?
Did you come to So-and-so?"

419
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:52,200
I said, "Yes, I did."

420
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,480
"Well, she'll meet you
at the police station.

421
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:58,280
So we all go to the police station,
and boom.

422
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,680
Thank you so much for
agreeing to meet with us.

423
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:17,280
We didn't wanna frighten you,
but we had to find you.

424
00:27:17,360 --> 00:27:19,280
You are a loose end

425
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:25,000
for a party that needs
to tidy up what's loose.

426
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:30,920
They feel that you are loose for them,
and that's really why I'm here.

427
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:33,480
According to the prosecution,

428
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,920
Trevian is attempting to coerce Ruby
into admitting election fraud.

429
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,640
The stakes couldn't be higher.

430
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,480
If Trevian succeeds,

431
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:48,080
she'll give Donald Trump a real chance
to overturn the election result.

432
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:55,960
We would like to let you know,
first and foremost,

433
00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:01,720
we have put in placement a way
to move you, to securing you,

434
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:06,840
taking you to a place to where you can see
what's on the table.

435
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:14,280
I would like to connect now
on the phone Harrison Floyd,

436
00:28:14,360 --> 00:28:18,560
who might be taking this situation

437
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,160
to a detailed level for you,

438
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,680
to let you know exactly what he's asking,
what choices you have.

439
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,160
But Harrison Floyd would be the person
to connect you with people

440
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,760
who could give you as much sovereignty
as we could find for you,

441
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,520
more safety than we could
find for you at this moment.

442
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,320
Trevian Kutti now asks to be left alone
with Ruby Freeman.

443
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:51,080
Officers, this is, at this moment,
a conversation between private citizens.

444
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:56,360
I'm hoping that you are trusting that
this information doesn't go any further.

445
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,720
I can step over here
if you're comfortable. Is that fine?

446
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,320
Yeah, I want her to be comfortable,
but I also wanna advise her

447
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,400
that there are federal people
who are involved here,

448
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,640
that I don't know who
is connected to who.

449
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,560
Miss Freeman, I can step right there,
if you're comfortable with that, okay?

450
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,200
And if you need me, holler.

451
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,400
I'll be down that hallway
right there.

452
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,720
- Okay. Thank you so much
- You're welcome.

453
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,280
Ruby Freeman was not afraid of me.

454
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:38,640
We had a great conversation.
It lasted the course of an hour plus.

455
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,960
She was very comfortable.
She told her story.

456
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,320
She told what happened that night.

457
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,040
But I wanted to try and get her a lawyer,
that's what I was doing.

458
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:49,200
Okay.

459
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,240
And that was
the end of the conversation.

460
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:55,800
All right, we're gonna go that way.
I'm gonna be right behind you, okay?

461
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:57,640
She gave me her email.

462
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,560
And so I emailed her, she didn't respond.

463
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,600
I emailed her again, she didn't respond.
I left Atlanta.

464
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,800
But I was charged with attempting
to intimidate a witness

465
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,680
to give a false statement.

466
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,920
I truly believe it was a global effort
to stop Donald Trump's candidacy.

467
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,200
I can't wait to bring her to justice.
That's my job.

468
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,240
I was completely,

469
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:35,320
completely and fully wholesome
with this woman for her best interest.

470
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,160
Now I have to prove her wrong.

471
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,920
And I, you know, at her age, normally,

472
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,360
I would have sympathy, but in this case,

473
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,720
for the sake of this country, I don't.

474
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,760
Trevian Kutti
leaves Georgia empty handed.

475
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,320
Trump's team turn their attention
to another part of the election process.

476
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,560
They focus on Dominion,

477
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,120
the company that makes
the vote counting machines.

478
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:07,640
Look at what's happening in Georgia.

479
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,160
A lot of things are
being found in Georgia.

480
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,240
{\an8}You have Dominion, which is very,
very suspect to start off with.

481
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,360
Those machines are fixed.
They're rigged.

482
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,920
You can press Trump
and the vote goes to Biden.

483
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,200
All you have to do is play with the chip.

484
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,720
And it's down, it's shown all the time.

485
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,440
All you have to do is play with the chip,
and they played with the chip.

486
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,720
They even name
an executive at Dominion.

487
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,120
One of the operators, Eric Coomer,

488
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:35,760
I believe his name is,

489
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,920
is on the web as being
recorded in a conversation

490
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:44,800
saying that he had the election
rigged for Mr. Biden.

491
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,600
His social media is filled
with hatred for the president

492
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,840
and for the United States
of America as a whole,

493
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,720
and they were going to f... Trump.

494
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,800
The man in question,
Eric Coomer,

495
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,120
has asked us not to disclose his location.

496
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,680
So we met him in an apartment
away from his hometown.

497
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,440
Hey, Eric, you
fucking piece of shit.

498
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,680
I hope you've picked out your cell
in Guantanamo Bay, you fucking faggot.

499
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:19,320
You were fully,

500
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:25,360
100% personally liable for acts of treason
against the people.

501
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,960
We will adjudicate you
and we will hang you for treason.

502
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,240
The November 2020 election was
one of the smoothest I've ever worked.

503
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,920
And I think it was about
six days after that,

504
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,200
{\an8}I realised that somebody
was accusing me

505
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,360
{\an8}of actually interfering with the election
and changing vote totals.

506
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:50,200
Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell went on
national television and I heard my name.

507
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,600
And I just, I left the
building, I went outside,

508
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,240
I think I chain smoked
a half pack of cigarettes

509
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,040
just trying to calm down,
and I really didn't know what to do.

510
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:05,280
Some private Facebook postings of mine
did express a certain political viewpoint.

511
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:12,640
But I was being accused of things
I didn't do that are provably false.

512
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,800
Fox News,
who ran with Trump's claims,

513
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,440
have since paid out over $700,000,000

514
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,520
to settle defamation
claims brought by Dominion.

515
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,200
All accusations that Dominion

516
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,360
or Eric Coomer tampered
with voting machines

517
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,880
have been proven false,
but the experience has changed his life.

518
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,360
I'm still afraid today, to be honest.

519
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,720
I was sitting there one
night and I literally,

520
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,720
I got a text message that said,
"We're watching you. You better run."

521
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,000
Take your time.

522
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,680
You know, I mean,
I jumped up out of my couch.

523
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,680
You know, all my blinds... I mean,
I haven't opened my blinds in years.

524
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:15,600
You know, at that moment, I really
thought, you know, I feared for my life.

525
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:19,920
Sorry.

526
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,200
I mean, it was devastating.

527
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:27,400
I was just doing my job.

528
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,240
Hello, America.
Welcome to "Life, Liberty and Levin."

529
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,160
{\an8}We have a great constitutional
scholar tonight.

530
00:34:38,240 --> 00:34:40,280
{\an8}- John Eastman, how are you?
- I'm well, Mark.

531
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:41,560
{\an8}Dr. John Eastman.

532
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,880
{\an8}It's at this point
that Trump decides

533
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:50,800
{\an8}he needs some constitutional advice,
and he turns to a little-known expert

534
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,040
{\an8}who sometimes appears on Fox News.

535
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,960
{\an8}The special prosecutor,
the Department of Justice itself,

536
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,440
{\an8}the attorney general have no
powers under our constitution

537
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,480
{\an8}that aren't derived from the president.

538
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,600
{\an8}Eastman is a professor
at Chapman University,

539
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,440
{\an8}a small private college
in Orange County.

540
00:35:10,720 --> 00:35:15,320
He remembers the first time
President Trump reached out to him.

541
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,800
I got a call from the White
House switchboard, it said,

542
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:21,480
"Please hold for the president."

543
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,920
{\an8}Quite frankly, I thought it
was an old classmate of mine

544
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,480
{\an8}pulling a prank on me, but no,
it was the president.

545
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:29,800
He just wanted to meet.

546
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,040
And we spent about an hour
and a half in the Oval Office

547
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,280
talking about a wide range of things.

548
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,120
Trump is intrigued
by Eastman's view

549
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,080
that the American constitution

550
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:45,120
gives the president more
power than people realise.

551
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,920
I've been attacked for just wanting
to be in the inner circle.

552
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:51,160
That's not true.
But it's a big deal.

553
00:35:51,240 --> 00:35:53,160
I mean, representing the
president of the United States

554
00:35:53,240 --> 00:35:55,320
in any case is a big deal.

555
00:35:56,440 --> 00:36:00,800
I was brought in to try
and look at the legal strategy

556
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,920
to challenge whether
something phoney was going on.

557
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:10,560
When the Georgia state legislator
meet to discuss election fraud...

558
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:13,320
There you go.
We can hear you now.

559
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:14,600
- Yeah.
- Okay. Very good.

560
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,440
Eastman appears via Zoom.

561
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,040
Professor Eastman,
I believe you're gonna talk to us today

562
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,640
about the Electoral College process

563
00:36:23,720 --> 00:36:26,520
and how that affects the legislature here.

564
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:28,800
Sure. Thanks very much.

565
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,560
And starts giving
them legal options.

566
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,360
Something is amiss here.

567
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:38,040
When you're convinced that the election
was conducted contrary to state law

568
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,640
and too fraught with the risk of fraud
to be properly certified,

569
00:36:41,720 --> 00:36:43,600
then you should exercise
your prerogative

570
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,640
to legislatively designate
a slate of electors.

571
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,960
Eastman tells them
if they think that the vote is fraudulent,

572
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,720
they could find their own way
to decide who won Georgia.

573
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,720
This starts a chain of events
that some will claim

574
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,040
is an attempt to overthrow democracy.

575
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,760
In America, to become president

576
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,800
you need to win the Electoral College.

577
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,280
It is the most unusual
college in the country.

578
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,040
It meets once every four years.

579
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,120
A system that
allows different states

580
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,720
to have different values
according to their size and population.

581
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:33,600
California is the biggest,
with 55 Electoral College votes.

582
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:41,080
Georgia has just 16 but can be
crucial in a tight election.

583
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,320
The Electoral College process
is normally just ceremonial.

584
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:56,520
Each state appoints a group of individuals
to act as electors.

585
00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:00,520
They represent the people
and certify who the state voted for.

586
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,720
And whoever receives the
most Electoral College votes

587
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,960
is declared the president.

588
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,760
I am so honoured to be
with this group today

589
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,240
as we officially cast Georgia's
16 Electoral College votes

590
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,360
for President-elect Joe Biden.

591
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:26,360
I was at the state senate

592
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,880
the day that the electors were
there and getting sworn in

593
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,920
and signing the official slate of electors

594
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,320
that would go up to Congress.

595
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,440
The electors
will take the documents

596
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,040
to a ceremony in Washington
D.C. on January 6th,

597
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,600
where the Vice President, Mike Pence,

598
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,600
has the role of confirming the winner.

599
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,800
While the official vote
is being signed off,

600
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,760
at the same time, on a floor below,

601
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,240
another meeting is taking place.

602
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:05,360
I saw Greg Bluestein,
who is the local political reporter here,

603
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,600
and I went up to him and I was like,
"Greg, what's happening?"

604
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:12,200
And he said, "I think something's,"

605
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:14,440
basically, "Something's up."

606
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:17,840
As I'm walking in,

607
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,440
I see a bunch of familiar
Republican faces,

608
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:27,040
{\an8}and they're all piling behind
this giant wooden door, Room 216.

609
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:33,040
And so I go up, go in the door,
peek my head in, like, look around.

610
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,480
And I was like, "What's going on here?"

611
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:39,560
And the guy at the door, a bigger dude,
said, "Educators' meeting.

612
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,520
You can't come in.
Close the door."

613
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,120
- Did you see any educators?
- No.

614
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:50,040
Senator Jen Jordan
decides to burst in.

615
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,280
People were not happy to see me.
I just barged in.

616
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,760
Camera crews now enter the room.

617
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,360
I looked at Greg and I was like,
"What's happening?"

618
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:07,200
He said, "They're doing their own slate
of electors that will support Trump."

619
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:12,440
This group of Republicans are creating
their own form of document

620
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:17,360
that declares Trump, not Biden,
the winner in Georgia.

621
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,360
I was in the room.

622
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:25,000
We were really under a quick timeline
because our attorneys were saying,

623
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,200
"You have to have the electors in place

624
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,560
to preserve our opportunity
to win the state."

625
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,760
16 have been cast
for President Trump.

626
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,680
I'm called the architect of what they call
the, quote, "fake elector scheme."

627
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,640
And I was far from the architect.

628
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:52,040
I had no discussion with electors
except on this one point,

629
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:55,440
and that was the importance of meeting
and voting on that day.

630
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,800
And that's all my involvement was.
That was it.

631
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,440
I immediately just jump into an interview
with the Republican Party chair.

632
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,960
I'm like, "What's going on?"
Like, "What?

633
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:10,600
You know, you guys lost. The vote was
certified. Why are you doing this now?"

634
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,200
And he's saying,
"Oh, I'm here to preserve legal options,

635
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,840
just in case they overturn the election."

636
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,080
I felt like we were
doing the right thing.

637
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:22,880
It was very public.
The news media was there.

638
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:27,400
There was no secret meeting
that some people, you know, have said.

639
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,400
So I don't think anything was done wrong.

640
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,160
Brandon Beach,
when we interviewed him,

641
00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:34,720
said you had, you know, the doors open,
this was a public event.

642
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,920
That's absolutely not true.

643
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:42,120
It absolutely was intended to be secret.

644
00:41:50,720 --> 00:41:53,080
Now Trump enters the fray.

645
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:57,440
He calls Brad Raffensperger,
the secretary of state for Georgia.

646
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:01,000
Trump doesn't know that their
call was being recorded,

647
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,240
and these are excerpts from
their hour-long conversation.

648
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,240
Look, Brad,
I have to find 12,000 votes.

649
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,840
And I have them times a lot

650
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:16,920
and therefore I won the state.

651
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,120
I need 11,000 votes.
Give me a break.

652
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,800
The day that President Trump
and I had our phone call,

653
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:28,520
Patricia and I were at home.

654
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:31,560
And she kind of looked at me
and I kind of looked at her.

655
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,760
And you gotta think that
her dad grew up very poor,

656
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,600
they would never think that I'd actually
have a phone call, you know,

657
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,240
with the President United States
of America, neither did I.

658
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,640
And so I wanted to make sure

659
00:42:44,720 --> 00:42:48,440
that I was respectful
to his position of authority.

660
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:53,040
Mr. Pres-uh,
you have people that submit information

661
00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:56,400
and we have our people
that submit information.

662
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,640
And we have to stand by our numbers.
We believe our numbers are right.

663
00:43:02,240 --> 00:43:05,720
You know, you don't care about anything.
Your numbers are right.

664
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,680
But your numbers aren't right,
they're really wrong.

665
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,320
So tell me, Brad,
what are we going to do?

666
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:16,360
We won the election and it's not fair
to take it away from us like this.

667
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:21,600
And you can re-examine it, but re-examine
it with people that wanna find answers,

668
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,840
not people that don't wanna find answers.

669
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:29,160
Well, Mr. President, the challenge that
you have is the data you have is wrong.

670
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,560
You should wanna
have an accurate election.

671
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,320
And you're a Republican.

672
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,040
We believe that we
do have an accurate election.

673
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,840
No, uh, no, you don't.
No, no, you don't.

674
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,320
You don't have, you don't,
not even close

675
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,400
Why wouldn't you want to find
the right answer, Brad,

676
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,520
instead of keep saying
that the numbers are right?

677
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:55,640
Why do you keep fighting this thing?
It just doesn't make sense.

678
00:43:55,720 --> 00:43:58,600
And you would be respected,

679
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,600
really respected if this thing
could be straightened out.

680
00:44:05,720 --> 00:44:08,680
Brad, we just want the truth.
It's simple.

681
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:10,400
Let the truth come out.

682
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,200
So I wanted to make sure it
is respectful conversation.

683
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,120
And then I was hoping that
as we had a conversation,

684
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,800
I could help understand
exactly those data points.

685
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:26,080
I didn't know what he knew and what he
didn't know, and so we had a conversation.

686
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,680
I believe you'll see
that I was respectful.

687
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,000
Someone in Raffensperger's office
records the call

688
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:37,920
and it's leaked to the press.

689
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,800
And how did it feel
to know it had been leaked?

690
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,600
I'm not altogether surprised.

691
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,160
I don't know how many copies of, you know,
that conversation were made.

692
00:44:48,240 --> 00:44:52,600
I would ask if we could kind of veer
to another topic

693
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,520
'cause that's something that
he's gonna be asked about

694
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,200
potentially in future proceedings.

695
00:44:58,280 --> 00:44:59,920
The recordings?

696
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,760
News of Trump's
phone call is going viral.

697
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:12,560
His focus turns to his vice president:
Mike Pence.

698
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:17,400
He's the person in charge
of the Electoral College ceremony

699
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,440
that chooses the next president.

700
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:26,280
And with just 2 days to go, he says this.

701
00:45:27,720 --> 00:45:31,640
You know, I'm here because I stand
with President Donald Trump.

702
00:45:40,720 --> 00:45:44,280
You know, I know we all, we all got
our doubts about the last election,

703
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,800
and I wanna assure you
I share the concerns

704
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,200
of millions of Americans
about voting irregularities.

705
00:45:53,240 --> 00:45:57,840
And I promise you, come this Wednesday,
we'll have our day in Congress.

706
00:45:58,800 --> 00:45:59,840
We'll hear the objections.

707
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,200
We'll hear the evidence.

708
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,280
Donald Trump invites Mike Pence

709
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,080
to spend some time with Eastman
in the White House.

710
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:15,480
According to the prosecution,

711
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:20,040
Eastman and Trump would pressure Pence
to not certify the election.

712
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:27,280
So, I get asked to
come to the White House.

713
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:31,760
Donald Trump was and remains convinced
that the election was stolen from him.

714
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:33,680
I think he's right about that.

715
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,600
It was clearly an illegal election.

716
00:46:38,720 --> 00:46:41,520
We had this meeting, it lasted an hour,
hour and a half.

717
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:46,440
And the vice president had his chief
of staff and his general counsel.

718
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,240
And the conversation
began by talking about:

719
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,080
Did the vice president
just have the authority

720
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:56,240
to unilaterally reject the Biden electors
because they were suspicious or contested?

721
00:46:56,720 --> 00:46:58,960
And the president asked me just to explain

722
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:03,480
the underlying constitutional analysis
to him and to the vice president.

723
00:47:05,240 --> 00:47:09,720
Trump argues that Pence has the power
to reject Electoral College votes,

724
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,760
but Pence seems to have concerns.

725
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:18,040
The vice president turned to me
at that point and said,

726
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,560
"Do you, like, think
I have such authority?"

727
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,280
And I... And, you know,
this is seared into my memory.

728
00:47:24,240 --> 00:47:28,600
"Mr. Vice President, it's an open
question. It's never been resolved.

729
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,000
But that's why we think
you should accede

730
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,520
to the requests from
hundreds of state legislators

731
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:38,800
to give them a little bit time
to assess the impact of the illegality."

732
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:42,160
And that was the advice given
in that in that meeting.

733
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,280
Pence played this close to his vest.

734
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:54,280
He was actively suggesting
that he was gonna exercise some authority.

735
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:02,320
People were talking about the various
scenarios, which is why I was asked

736
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,880
to kinda put everything
that's being talked about

737
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:07,840
down on paper so that we kind
of know what the universe

738
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,800
of things we ought to be considering is.
And that was the extent of it.

739
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,960
CCTV captures
what happens next.

740
00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:34,400
Two men can be seen
arriving in Washington.

741
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:41,680
They're Trump's men
arriving with documents

742
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,680
certifying fake Electoral
College votes for Trump

743
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:49,800
to be given to Mike Pence.

744
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:08,160
Text message exchanges reveal
that they've successfully hand delivered

745
00:49:08,240 --> 00:49:11,600
the fake elector documents
to a congressman's aid

746
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,360
who's agreed to pass them up the chain.

747
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,840
And what becomes clear
is that Trump's team

748
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:29,200
has been trying alternate
Electoral College schemes

749
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:33,320
not just in Georgia,
but in almost all the swing states:

750
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,200
Arizona, Michigan,

751
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,400
Nevada, Wisconsin,

752
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,240
all states that Trump lost.

753
00:49:56,840 --> 00:50:00,960
In Washington, Trump has spent the morning
on the phone to Mike Pence

754
00:50:02,240 --> 00:50:04,600
to persuade him to stop the certification.

755
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:10,280
He's also called on his followers,
who are now gathering in their thousands.

756
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:15,960
Americans were coming in
from every part of the country

757
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:20,360
by plane, by bus, by motorcycle, by
skateboard, however they could get here.

758
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,680
Lee Greenwood was playing
"God Bless the USA,"

759
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:28,840
but you can only listen to that soundtrack
so many times in the same rotation.

760
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:33,000
And so the rally organisers
called over to Rudy

761
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,640
and asked if he could
come say a few words,

762
00:50:35,720 --> 00:50:38,200
and he asked me to go along with him.

763
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:39,920
Hello, everyone.

764
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:42,840
We're here just very briefly

765
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:46,720
to make a very important two points.

766
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:51,040
Number one, every single thing

767
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:53,240
that has been outlined

768
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,640
as the plan for today is perfectly legal;

769
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,560
that the vice president can decide

770
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:03,280
on the validity of these crooked ballots.

771
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:08,640
It is perfectly appropriate
that the vice president

772
00:51:08,720 --> 00:51:10,200
can cast it aside,

773
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:16,760
and he can do what a president called
Jefferson did when he was vice president.

774
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:23,320
Let me ask Professor Eastman
to explain.

775
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,040
Eastman steps up
to make his case to the people.

776
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,000
America's Mayor. Wonderful.

777
00:51:31,720 --> 00:51:33,920
Hello, America!

778
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:36,520
Sorry, I had to say that.

779
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,640
Look, we know there was fraud,
traditional fraud that occurred.

780
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:43,840
The machines contributed to that fraud.

781
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,640
And all we are demanding
of Vice President Pence

782
00:51:48,720 --> 00:51:51,320
is this afternoon, at 1:00,

783
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:55,040
he let the legislatures
of the state look into this

784
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:56,760
so we get to the bottom of it

785
00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,400
and the American people
know whether we have control

786
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:02,000
of the direction of our government or not.

787
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:13,840
We no longer live in
a self-governing republic

788
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:16,720
if we can't get the
answer to this question.

789
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:18,400
This is bigger than President Trump.

790
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:23,720
It is the very essence of our republican
form of government, and it has to be done.

791
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,440
And anybody that is not
willing to stand up to do it

792
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:30,560
does not deserve to be in the office.
It is that simple.

793
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,800
Is it still the land of the free
and the home of the brave?

794
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,520
Or is it becoming the land of the coward
and the home of the slave?

795
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,360
Let's have trial by combat!

796
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,760
My three minutes was
a little bit before 11:00 AM,

797
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:55,800
and then we sat there
in the kind of reserve section

798
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,120
right at the front until
the president came out.

799
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:05,840
That's a tough act to follow,
those two.

800
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:09,920
John is one of the most brilliant
lawyers in the country,

801
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,400
and he looked at this and he said,

802
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:16,760
"What an absolute disgrace that this can
be happening to our constitution."

803
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:19,040
And he looked at Mike Pence...

804
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:20,840
And I hope Mike is gonna
do the right thing.

805
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,800
I hope so. I hope so.

806
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,640
Because if Mike Pence
does the right thing,

807
00:53:26,720 --> 00:53:27,720
we win the election.

808
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:33,080
We're gonna walk down,
and I'll be there with you,

809
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:36,440
we're gonna walk down to the Capitol

810
00:53:39,240 --> 00:53:42,880
and we're gonna cheer
on our brave senators

811
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,400
and congressmen and women.

812
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:50,400
Something's wrong here. Something's
really wrong. Can't have happened.

813
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,240
And we fight. We fight like hell.

814
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,880
And if you don't fight like hell,
you're not gonna have a country anymore.

815
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,360
As the crowd marches
towards the Capitol,

816
00:54:03,240 --> 00:54:06,520
Eastman and Giuliani head down the road
to the Willard Hotel.

817
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:12,920
Rudy and I wanted to be back at the office
that we had set up at the Willard Hotel,

818
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,520
which is only a block and a half away.

819
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:26,160
Inside the Capitol, electoral documents
are on their way to the main hall.

820
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:30,160
In just a few moments,

821
00:54:30,240 --> 00:54:33,760
Vice President Pence will
be given a set of boxes

822
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:37,560
containing the electoral votes
from across the country.

823
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:41,240
Madam Speaker,
the Vice President,

824
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,920
and the United States Senate.

825
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:56,560
There is all this pomp and circumstance
and procedure

826
00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:01,640
that goes around the vice
president finally saying,

827
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,800
"This is the winner
of the presidential election."

828
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,720
The states will announce their votes
in alphabetical order

829
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,960
and Pence will have to decide what to do.

830
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,920
Let's go. Let's just start.

831
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:17,720
Okay.

832
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,160
Madam speaker and members of Congress,
pursuant to the Constitution

833
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:26,640
and the laws of the United States,

834
00:55:26,720 --> 00:55:30,040
the Senate and House of Representatives
are meeting in joint session.

835
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,840
The tellers will count
and make a list of the votes

836
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,360
cast by the electors
of the several states.

837
00:55:36,720 --> 00:55:39,920
As the crowd continues its march
towards the Capitol,

838
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:43,880
Eastman and Giuliani are
in their hotel operations room.

839
00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:49,120
We were at the Willard
to field questions

840
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:51,640
from any members of
Congress about the evidence

841
00:55:51,720 --> 00:55:56,000
because they were going to be objecting
to what we thought were illegal votes.

842
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,600
The first swing state
to declare is Arizona.

843
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,920
The certificate
of the electoral vote

844
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:11,920
of the State of Arizona seems to be
regular in form and authentic,

845
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:17,360
and it appears therefrom
that Joseph R. Biden Jr.

846
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:22,000
of the State of Delaware
received 11 votes for president.

847
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,400
Are there any objections
to counting the certificate of vote

848
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,600
of the State of Arizona
that the teller has verified

849
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:30,720
appears to be regular
in form and authentic?

850
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,400
Mr. Vice President, I, Paul Gosar,
from Arizona's...

851
00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:36,080
For what purpose does the gentleman
from Arizona rise?

852
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:39,480
I rise for myself
and 60 of my colleagues

853
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:44,000
to object to the counting
of the electoral ballots from Arizona.

854
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,920
Is the objection in writing
and signed by a senator?

855
00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:51,040
- Yes, it is.
- It is.

856
00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:58,440
With Republicans backing Trump's plan
to not accept Biden's victory,

857
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:02,640
Pence pauses the ceremony
to give time for deliberation.

858
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:08,200
Each house will deliberate separately
on the pending objection

859
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,120
and report its decision
back to the joint session.

860
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,480
Trump and Eastman are waiting on Pence
to side with the objections

861
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:19,200
and acknowledge the alternate electors.

862
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:24,200
And at that point,

863
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:28,360
news of a crowd assembling
around the Capitol had started.

864
00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:33,960
As Trump's team waits to see
if Pence will certify,

865
00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:37,120
the crowd outside refuses to wait.

866
00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:53,600
This way!

867
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:56,000
This way! This way!

868
00:57:57,480 --> 00:57:58,480
This way!

869
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:03,000
My challenge today is not about
the good people of Arizona...

870
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,760
And it will stand in recess
until the call of the chair.

871
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:12,400
- We'll pause.
- Protestors are in the building.

872
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,120
Certification is stopped.

873
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,320
Everybody stay down!
Get down!

874
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,160
And security rushes
to evacuate Mike Pence.

875
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:28,040
Trump won! Trump won!

876
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,920
Lawmakers barricade themselves
in offices and hide.

877
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:32,000
Where are we going?

878
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:35,280
- Where are we going?
- Underground.

879
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:40,920
It takes four hours for riot police

880
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:42,920
to clear the Capitol building.

881
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:46,840
Four people die in the crowd.

882
00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:49,280
One person is shot by a police officer

883
00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:53,640
and an officer defending Congress dies

884
00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:55,400
after being attacked by a mob.

885
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:03,840
A shaken Congress returns to the Electoral
College to complete the ceremony.

886
00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:07,440
To those who wreaked
havoc in our Capitol today,

887
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:10,120
you did not win.

888
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:17,360
And when the count resumes,
there's a very different atmosphere.

889
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:21,520
To count the electoral vote will resume.

890
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:26,680
This certificate from Georgia,
the parliamentarians advise me,

891
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,240
is the only certificate
of vote from that state

892
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:32,760
that purports to be a return from
the state and that has annexed to it...

893
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:36,720
Pence refused to accept
the Trump electors' certificates.

894
00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:41,360
As I understand it,
they were all there with the archivist

895
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:42,880
and they just never got presented.

896
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:45,880
He refused to open any of those, saying,

897
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:51,320
"Because they didn't have a Governor's
certificate, then they're not valid."

898
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:52,960
He knew they were there.

899
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:55,440
He knew they were there.

900
00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:59,120
Thank God he did the right thing.

901
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,960
That actually may have helped save
our democracy at the end of the day.

902
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:09,160
They dismiss
the Republican challengers

903
01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:14,800
and Joe Biden is certified as the winner
of the 2020 presidential election.

904
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,400
The votes for president of
the United States are as follows:

905
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,880
Joseph R. Biden Junior
of the State of Delaware

906
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:24,520
has received 306 votes.

907
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:26,680
Donald J. Trump of the State of Florida

908
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:29,320
has received 232 votes.

909
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:37,840
The report we make is that Joe Biden

910
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:39,800
and Kamala Harris

911
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:42,640
will be the president
and the vice president,

912
01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:46,480
according to the ballots
that have been given to us.

913
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:57,120
Donald Trump is leaving the White House
with his family.

914
01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:03,480
He makes it clear that
this is not the end.

915
01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,640
So just a goodbye.

916
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:14,480
We love you.
We will be back in some form.

917
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,600
We will see you soon. Thank you.
Thank you very much.

918
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:31,600
January 6th will
come to be seen as the day

919
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:35,560
that Donald Trump attempted
to overthrow American democracy.

920
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:41,560
What Trump doesn't know yet
is that a district attorney from Georgia

921
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:44,560
has been keeping an eye on him.

922
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:56,480
Fani Willis is
the most senior prosecutor

923
01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:58,640
in Fulton County, Georgia.

924
01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:01,840
The cases that she's going through now.

925
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:04,080
So what I've had them
do from all the floors

926
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:06,600
is bring all of the cases down.

927
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:11,920
I am going to look at anyone
that attempted to influence

928
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:13,720
the November 2020 election.

929
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,520
Willis has taken on
the biggest case of her career.

930
01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:20,480
We need to have free and fair elections.

931
01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:24,360
And so I think it's a grave
responsibility of mine

932
01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:28,560
to make sure that we are patient,
that we take our time,

933
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,600
that we kind of ignore the public,

934
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:35,200
whatever side of the aisle you're on,
and that we just really look at the facts

935
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:38,240
and what the law is.
And so we're gonna slowly do that.

936
01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,040
She calls a
special purpose grand jury,

937
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:46,040
a legal tool used by
prosecutors to gather evidence

938
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:47,880
and summon witnesses.

939
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:51,840
What charges
could Trump face here?

940
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:53,480
Should he be worried?

941
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,080
He should
definitely be worried.

942
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:59,240
I mean, there are a host of charges
surrounding fraud, election fraud.

943
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:03,760
She'll present her investigation
to a jury of regular Georgians

944
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:06,400
who will meet and deliberate in secret.

945
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:09,480
Good morning. Please be seated.

946
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:11,800
Okay.

947
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,480
Ladies and gentlemen,
I'm Judge Robert McBurney.

948
01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:18,680
We are here today to select a grand jury

949
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:23,640
that will investigate whether
there were unlawful attempts

950
01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:29,520
to disrupt the administration
of the 2020 elections here in Georgia.

951
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:34,240
Judge Robert McBurney is the man
in charge of the jury selection process.

952
01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:38,840
I had an armed escort to work.

953
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,440
{\an8}200 people were brought
into the courthouse.

954
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:42,800
Big production.

955
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:46,680
And the special purpose grand jury
was selected from that group.

956
01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:49,280
The jury
will be asked to determine

957
01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:52,480
if there's enough evidence
to bring criminal proceedings

958
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,760
against Trump and those
working on his behalf.

959
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,640
My concern was someone
would have already decided:

960
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:03,240
"That person is a crook," or,
"This is all a political investigation."

961
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:05,320
And we didn't run into that.

962
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:07,200
There were people who
were willing to serve

963
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:09,360
who were very open-minded about it.

964
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:12,720
And so that grand jury selection
process went very, very quickly.

965
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:16,480
You'll be deciding:
Did something happen?

966
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:18,400
And if so, in your opinion,

967
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:20,760
was it unlawful such
as you might recommend

968
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:24,080
to the district attorney that
she pursue criminal charges?

969
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:29,120
We tracked down
one of those jurors who,

970
01:04:29,200 --> 01:04:33,160
under the condition of anonymity
due to fears for his life,

971
01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:37,280
speaks for the first time on camera
about what happened in that room.

972
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:41,640
They were going
to present evidence to us

973
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:44,240
and we were going to be
the ones who recommended

974
01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:45,800
and came up with that final report.

975
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:50,680
I think it being a former president

976
01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:52,520
that we're investigating,

977
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,640
that's never happened
in the United States.

978
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:01,080
The jury hears gripping testimony
from Ruby Freeman,

979
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:02,800
the Georgia election worker

980
01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:05,400
who was filmed counting
ballots on election night.

981
01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:10,120
They accused me of committing crimes,

982
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:13,640
of helping to steal the election.

983
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:15,560
None of this is true, none of it.

984
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:21,880
I had to move out of my house
because the FBI said it wasn't safe.

985
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:24,400
Friends and members of my community

986
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:27,800
were afraid to even be
associated with me

987
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:32,880
because they didn't wanna get
caught up in the harassment.

988
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:38,160
There is nowhere I feel safe, nowhere.

989
01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:43,320
I've lost my name
and I've lost my reputation.

990
01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:46,200
I've lost my sense of security.

991
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:51,160
The jury is played Donald Trump's call
to Brad Raffensperger

992
01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:55,280
where Trump mentions Ruby
Freeman's name 18 times.

993
01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:59,520
Ruby Freeman, known scammer.

994
01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:02,480
You know the internet? You know
what was trending on the internet?

995
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:06,320
"Where's Ruby?"
Because they thought she'd be in jail.

996
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:07,640
"Where's Ruby?"

997
01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:10,640
She stuffed the ballot boxes.

998
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,600
You know that every single ballot
she did went to Biden?

999
01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:15,200
You know that, right?

1000
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:19,200
Do you know how it feels

1001
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:24,240
to have the president
of the United States target you?

1002
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:30,560
The president of the United States
is supposed to represent every American,

1003
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,080
not to target one.

1004
01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:39,760
The president of
the United States made up lies

1005
01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:44,960
about two ordinary Americans
for his own personal gain.

1006
01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:55,000
Mr. Giuliani, when you met with Georgia
lawmakers, did you lie to them?

1007
01:06:56,680 --> 01:06:58,800
We will not talk about
this until it's over.

1008
01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:02,760
It's a grand jury and grand juries,
as I recall, are secret.

1009
01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:05,800
Do you believe President Trump is
the ultimate target of this investigation?

1010
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:07,800
I'm not gonna talk about
the grand jury investigation...

1011
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:09,640
- What do you think their goal is here?
- Until I know more about it.

1012
01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:12,960
Rudy Giuliani is summoned
to Georgia to testify.

1013
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:17,520
Rudy Giuliani came in smiling
and in a really good mood,

1014
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,520
and waved to everybody and said
good morning, those kind of things.

1015
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,520
Then he just, for the most part,
proceeded to plead the Fifth,

1016
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,400
essentially no comment.

1017
01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:29,320
He was kind of one of
the ones that bothered me

1018
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:31,560
because there's a lot of the people

1019
01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:33,640
who were out there saying
all of these things,

1020
01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:35,320
making all these allegations,

1021
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:38,640
and when they was asked for
evidence or anything else,

1022
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:40,440
there was no evidence to back it up.

1023
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:43,760
You go into those senate hearings

1024
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:46,680
knowing the impact that it's
going to have on these people,

1025
01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:49,240
or you know and you just don't care.

1026
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,440
They're just throwing
whatever they can at a wall:

1027
01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:53,280
"Let's see which one of these stick."

1028
01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:59,480
The deeper Fani Willis
gets into her investigation,

1029
01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:05,640
the more she's asked about her decision
to take on such a high-profile case.

1030
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:08,960
Are you worried that
former President Trump

1031
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,680
could somehow be able to avoid,
delay, you know,

1032
01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:13,520
what's going on with your investigation?

1033
01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:14,600
- No.
- Why is that?

1034
01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:17,440
- What gives you that confidence?
- This is a criminal investigation.

1035
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:21,880
We're not here playing a game.
I plan to use the power of the law.

1036
01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:26,280
And my job is to make sure that we get
the evidence that gives us the truth.

1037
01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:31,280
I'm not concerned at all
about games to delay this.

1038
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:36,000
Next, jurors
are shown CCTV images

1039
01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:40,200
from inside an elections office
in Coffee County, Southeast Georgia.

1040
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:46,760
In the footage, it seems
that a bail bondsman

1041
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:49,000
with family ties to the Trump campaign

1042
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:52,560
is giving instructions to computer experts

1043
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:55,960
who appear to be hacking
into the Dominion software.

1044
01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:02,080
They use their own USB drives to access
sensitive voting data in Georgia.

1045
01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:06,160
That part was infuriating too.

1046
01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:10,080
All they're looking at is votes
and who voted for who.

1047
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:15,320
That's private information,
and they just were able to go in there.

1048
01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:18,280
They could have looked up me personally

1049
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:20,840
if I'd voted in Coffee County
and who I voted for.

1050
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:26,240
I started realising that the criminality
was kind of there.

1051
01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:30,840
All the people, everything that happened
in Georgia kinda spiralled out

1052
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:34,640
and had these tentacles going into,
you know, the White House.

1053
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:42,160
Next, Dominion workers are called in,
including Eric Coomer.

1054
01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:47,400
We took the secret entrance
into the courthouse,

1055
01:09:47,480 --> 01:09:49,600
had an armed escort.

1056
01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:52,400
They just asked me questions.

1057
01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:56,320
I felt it was really important
to participate in this

1058
01:09:56,400 --> 01:09:59,880
and to try to bring to light
what are some of the outcomes

1059
01:09:59,960 --> 01:10:02,360
and sort of the ripple effects

1060
01:10:02,440 --> 01:10:04,560
of all of these lies and accusations.

1061
01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:09,600
You know, this isn't
about a specific crime.

1062
01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:13,720
This is about an all-out
assault on our democracy.

1063
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:17,320
You know, a democracy
that's almost 250 years old

1064
01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,160
is really on the brink of being lost.

1065
01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:24,560
John Eastman is summoned.

1066
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:31,120
The grand jurors themselves
were kind of seated auditorium style.

1067
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:34,000
You know, there were tables upfront
and there were kind of auditorium seats.

1068
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:38,680
Eastman is also being investigated
in other states.

1069
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,280
Dr. Eastman, did you advise
the president of the United States

1070
01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:47,040
that the vice president could reject
electorates from seven states

1071
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:49,000
and declare that the president
had been re-elected?

1072
01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:50,320
Fifth.

1073
01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:54,920
He also pleads the Fifth
or no comment to the special grand jury.

1074
01:10:57,600 --> 01:10:59,360
Most of these
people are attorneys,

1075
01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:03,280
devoted their life to the law,
and just to be that arrogant

1076
01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:07,760
to where you just think, "I can
just do what I want. It'll be fine."

1077
01:11:08,440 --> 01:11:12,280
I never was convinced that
Eastman and all of them

1078
01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:14,520
actually thought there was a conspiracy.

1079
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:19,360
I think they were just saying it
to try and get to their end results.

1080
01:11:20,480 --> 01:11:24,960
I don't think any of those people
ever really believed most of it.

1081
01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:29,960
I don't think Trump ever believed
that the election was stolen from him.

1082
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:32,840
I think they just say it
to get the impact they want

1083
01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:35,600
from the people who vote for him.

1084
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:39,680
Once all these legal battles failed,

1085
01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:43,960
all you had left was January 6th,
where you could go and say,

1086
01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:48,840
"Let's put this on Mike Pence
to overturn this for us."

1087
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:50,320
And he refused.

1088
01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:55,920
Without Mike Pence, I think you have
democracy overturned in United States.

1089
01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:03,960
While the special grand jury
deliberate the evidence before them,

1090
01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:09,120
Trump makes an announcement
from his Florida mansion.

1091
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:13,720
Please welcome
President Donald J. Trump,

1092
01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:16,320
accompanied by Mrs. Melania Trump.

1093
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:21,040
USA! USA!

1094
01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:24,880
Ladies and gentlemen,

1095
01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:28,680
{\an8}in order to make America
great and glorious again,

1096
01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:33,520
{\an8}I am tonight announcing my candidacy
for president of the United States.

1097
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:45,960
And we will make America great again!

1098
01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:49,840
Thank you very much.
God bless you all. Thank you.

1099
01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:04,400
At the Fulton County Courthouse,
anticipation is in the air.

1100
01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:13,960
Ma'am, are
these the Trump indictments?

1101
01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:16,680
- Is Trump listed on these files?
- I haven't looked at them.

1102
01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:18,320
Okay.

1103
01:13:35,280 --> 01:13:37,680
Thank you for joining us.

1104
01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:44,240
Today, a Fulton County grand jury
returned a true bill of indictment

1105
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:47,160
charging 19 individuals

1106
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:50,200
with violations of Georgia law

1107
01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:54,800
arising from a criminal conspiracy

1108
01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:56,960
to overturn the results

1109
01:13:57,040 --> 01:14:01,080
of the 2020 presidential
election in this state.

1110
01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:07,400
Fani Willis now prepares
for a full criminal trial

1111
01:14:07,480 --> 01:14:09,120
and summons the key defendants.

1112
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:11,520
Mr. Giuliani!

1113
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:13,000
Mr. Giuliani!

1114
01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:17,760
Fani Willis will go down
in American history

1115
01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:19,840
as having conducted one
of the worst attacks

1116
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:23,120
on the American constitution ever
when this case is dismissed.

1117
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:27,360
We did nothing wrong.
This is a political witch hunt.

1118
01:14:27,440 --> 01:14:30,480
And I'm gonna stand high
and hold my head up high.

1119
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:32,760
And I went in with a suit and tie

1120
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:35,880
and I went through the booking process,
fingerprinted and mugshotted.

1121
01:14:36,440 --> 01:14:39,160
The attempt to criminalize
our rights to such redress

1122
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:41,880
with this indictment will have

1123
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:45,240
and is already having
profound consequences

1124
01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:46,720
for our system of justice.

1125
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:51,160
All of my co-defendants
and I will be fully vindicated.

1126
01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:53,320
Thank you all, ladies
and gentlemen, very much.

1127
01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:57,120
Everything I said in that statement was
true and I remain committed to it.

1128
01:14:57,200 --> 01:14:59,360
I think this case should
never have been brought.

1129
01:14:59,440 --> 01:15:00,800
It's a travesty.

1130
01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:04,240
It's quite obviously a political attempt

1131
01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,640
to handicap the leading contender

1132
01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:09,200
for the office of president
in the 2024 election.

1133
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:16,000
Do you plan to comply with the Judge's
order regarding the latest indictment?

1134
01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:17,920
Well, I'll have
to take a look at the order.

1135
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,960
The whole thing is a fake.
It was put out by Biden,

1136
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:24,040
and they put it out because they can't win
an election in the fair way.

1137
01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:26,440
It's all called election interference.

1138
01:15:29,480 --> 01:15:33,000
And now the ex-president himself
is summoned to the jail.

1139
01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:44,400
I was out here by myself,
literally pacing around out here.

1140
01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:49,720
{\an8}I still, at this point, had not decided
if I was gonna take his mugshot.

1141
01:15:49,800 --> 01:15:53,040
{\an8}And so there was a lot
going through my mind:

1142
01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:58,960
"Do you fingerprint, do you take a mugshot
of a former sitting president?"

1143
01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:04,360
How are you doing?
Good morning.

1144
01:16:04,440 --> 01:16:06,200
"Highest office in the free world.

1145
01:16:06,880 --> 01:16:08,920
Do you treat him differently?"

1146
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:15,760
And, of course, I landed
on the side of: "You don't.

1147
01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:19,480
You treat him like everybody else."

1148
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:23,040
He came here.

1149
01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:27,640
And at this point,
all that you see on TV,

1150
01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:31,320
all the bravado that comes along
with that, there was none of that.

1151
01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:33,840
It was a solemn moment.

1152
01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:41,000
The highest-ranking official in the free
world having to go through this.

1153
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:48,520
And I've received some interesting
feedback. I had my life threatened,

1154
01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:52,200
I had my family's life
threatened for taking a mugshot.

1155
01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:55,840
So it's a lot of opportunities

1156
01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:59,680
to see both the best and the worst
of what society has to offer.

1157
01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:05,320
Fani Willis
is also becoming a target,

1158
01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:07,920
and the attention is getting more intense.

1159
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:14,200
Why is there so much murder,
I mean murder, in Atlanta?

1160
01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:17,560
Failed District Attorney Fani Willis,

1161
01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:20,160
who is campaigning and
fundraising off:

1162
01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:23,960
"Get Trump. We're gonna get Trump," not
the murderers, "We're gonna get Trump,"

1163
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:27,400
she is a disaster for Atlanta.

1164
01:17:27,480 --> 01:17:30,640
She's a disaster
for the great State of Georgia.

1165
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:33,600
After facing
attempts on her life,

1166
01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:36,520
Fani Willis has been
forced to take secret exits

1167
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:38,880
from the courthouse dressed in disguise.

1168
01:17:43,360 --> 01:17:48,160
I hope your nigger cunt fucking DA
has a mugshot too.

1169
01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:51,680
You should be hung like
a good nigger should be hung.

1170
01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:54,120
You worthless fucking bitch.

1171
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:56,560
You commie motherfuckers.

1172
01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:03,160
So we constantly work with Fani Willis
to make sure she's secure.

1173
01:18:03,440 --> 01:18:06,920
This world has become
a much different place.

1174
01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:09,880
And understanding the magnitude

1175
01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:12,120
and the gravity of where we are,

1176
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:16,120
safety and security for her,
for me, for my family, her family,

1177
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:17,880
and the like is paramount.

1178
01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:21,320
The last couple of years
have been really hard for me.

1179
01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:23,880
This police department will keep me safe,

1180
01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:26,560
and so many of y'all did.

1181
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:31,000
So many of y'all walked around my house,
so many of y'all showed up.

1182
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:32,440
That dog showed up daily

1183
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:35,520
to just make sure that me
and my family were okay.

1184
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,560
And I can be Madam DA,
but at the end of the day,

1185
01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:40,920
I'm just a single mum
trying to raise my children,

1186
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:42,640
and it's because of you I'm safe.

1187
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:51,560
Despite the threats,
Fani Willis sets a trial date.

1188
01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:56,440
Denying all charges, Trump assembles
his legal team in Georgia

1189
01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:01,640
and they prepare for the unprecedented
criminal trial of a former president.

1190
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:06,160
So, Judge, here for the state is myself,
Nathan Wade.

1191
01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:07,840
Donald Wakeford is here as well.

1192
01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:11,760
As the prospect
of jail time becomes a reality,

1193
01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:14,760
some of Trump's co-defendants
are pleading guilty.

1194
01:19:16,440 --> 01:19:19,840
Five counts of conspiracy
to commit intentional interference

1195
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:21,880
with performance of election duty.

1196
01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:23,120
Guilty.

1197
01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:26,120
Hall pleaded guilty
to five misdemeanour charges,

1198
01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:30,120
and first of the 19 co-defendants
in this Georgia election subversion case

1199
01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:32,400
to cut a deal with the
district attorney's office.

1200
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,880
This is potentially a devastating
development for Donald Trump.

1201
01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:39,760
Sidney Powell is going
to testify for prosecutors.

1202
01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:44,320
Sidney Powell, the pro-Trump lawyer
who targeted Eric Coomer.

1203
01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:46,480
How do you plead to the
six counts of conspiracy

1204
01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:50,320
to commit intentional interference
with performance of election duties?

1205
01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,200
Guilty.

1206
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:55,560
Ken Chesebro,
the man who hand delivered

1207
01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:57,720
the fake elector documents to Washington.

1208
01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:00,760
And is it your
decision to waive these rights

1209
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,880
and enter into this guilty plea
because you are in fact guilty?

1210
01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:05,040
Yes.

1211
01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:10,160
Jenna Ellis, also on the Trump legal team,
makes a statement.

1212
01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:12,440
I failed to do my due diligence.

1213
01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,160
I believe in and I value
election integrity.

1214
01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:17,040
If I knew then what I know now,

1215
01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:21,320
I would have declined to represent Donald
Trump in these post-election challenges.

1216
01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:26,160
She then speaks to Trump's state of mind
in the aftermath of the election.

1217
01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:30,240
{\an8}He said, "The boss is not going to leave
under any circumstances.

1218
01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:31,960
{\an8}We are just going to stay in power."

1219
01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:35,320
{\an8}And I said to him, "Well, it doesn't quite
work that way, you realise?"

1220
01:20:35,480 --> 01:20:36,960
{\an8}And he said, "We don't care."

1221
01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:41,440
Now Mike
Pence publicly reveals

1222
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:44,440
what happened between
him and Donald Trump.

1223
01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:48,480
{\an8}The president specifically asked me,

1224
01:20:48,600 --> 01:20:54,000
{\an8}and his gaggle of crackpot lawyers
asked me to literally reject votes.

1225
01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:56,560
{\an8}The American people deserve to know

1226
01:20:56,720 --> 01:21:02,800
{\an8}that President Trump and his advisers
didn't just ask me to pause,

1227
01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:05,440
{\an8}they asked me to reject votes,
return votes,

1228
01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:07,600
{\an8}essentially to overturn the election.

1229
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:09,600
{\an8}And to keep faith with the oath

1230
01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:12,440
{\an8}that I made to the American
people and to almighty God,

1231
01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:15,400
{\an8}I rejected that out of hand
and I did my duty that day.

1232
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:27,960
Back in Georgia, a local attorney,
Ashleigh Merchant, enters the fray.

1233
01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:30,800
She's representing a Trump co-defendant.

1234
01:21:32,440 --> 01:21:35,720
I was gonna pull the case file and
alphabetize it like I normally would

1235
01:21:35,800 --> 01:21:37,280
and tab it so it's easier to pull.

1236
01:21:37,360 --> 01:21:38,760
Perfect.

1237
01:21:39,360 --> 01:21:43,640
I believe that these cases were generated
to try to harm Donald Trump.

1238
01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:47,120
{\an8}I think that a lot of people
who are sort of moderate

1239
01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:50,480
{\an8}are upset by the manipulation
of the criminal justice system.

1240
01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:52,640
They wanna convict just
because they don't like him

1241
01:21:52,720 --> 01:21:54,960
and they don't like
anybody that supports him.

1242
01:21:55,480 --> 01:21:57,600
Ashleigh has
discovered information

1243
01:21:57,680 --> 01:22:01,000
that could completely derail
the prosecution of Trump.

1244
01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:04,320
There are rumours going around

1245
01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:08,400
that Fani Willis may be having a secret
relationship with Nathan Wade,

1246
01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:12,080
the next most senior
prosecutor on the case.

1247
01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:16,840
Ashleigh and Fani Willis have history.

1248
01:22:18,480 --> 01:22:22,240
There had been a lot of rumours
that there was a relationship.

1249
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:24,640
Nathan Wade is an attorney.

1250
01:22:24,720 --> 01:22:29,640
Fani Willis hired him and paid him
government money to prosecute this case.

1251
01:22:30,120 --> 01:22:31,840
Why are they hiring an outside lawyer

1252
01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:34,240
to do all of this work and paying him
this much money?

1253
01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:36,480
It was just, it was unheard of.

1254
01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:40,800
So we filed a motion to disqualify.

1255
01:22:40,880 --> 01:22:42,320
I mean, I was very nervous filing it

1256
01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:44,760
because I knew that it was
going to be a bombshell,

1257
01:22:44,840 --> 01:22:46,640
and I also knew, you know,
I would be attacked.

1258
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:51,000
Fulton County DA fighting allegations
that she personally benefited

1259
01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:54,080
from a romantic relationship
she had with Nathan Wade.

1260
01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:59,360
A judge allows Ashleigh
to have her argument heard in court.

1261
01:23:00,200 --> 01:23:02,040
After Nathan Wade gives evidence,

1262
01:23:02,120 --> 01:23:06,280
Fani Willis' lawyer argues that
she shouldn't have to take the stand.

1263
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:08,640
I don't believe that
there can be a showing

1264
01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:11,200
for the need for the district
attorney to testify as well.

1265
01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:15,320
Fani Willis decides that she,
and not her lawyer,

1266
01:23:15,400 --> 01:23:17,400
will defend her actions in court.

1267
01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:22,840
I was surprised to see
Fani Willis in court,

1268
01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:25,000
because as her lawyer is arguing

1269
01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:26,960
that I should not be
allowed to question her,

1270
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:29,000
she walks in and says,
"I wanna take the stand."

1271
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:36,880
The two women, former friends,
now come face to face.

1272
01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,840
Fani Willis is no longer
the hunter but the hunted.

1273
01:23:45,560 --> 01:23:48,160
Miss Willis, how did you know to come
into the courtroom right then?

1274
01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:50,920
I heard someone yell,
"His testimony is done."

1275
01:23:51,320 --> 01:23:55,280
It only made sense to me that
I would be your next witness.

1276
01:23:55,360 --> 01:23:58,440
And I've been very anxious to have
this conversation with you today,

1277
01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:00,440
so I ran to the courtroom.

1278
01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:05,160
If Willis' relationship
is proven to be inappropriate,

1279
01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:07,560
her prosecution of Trump could be over.

1280
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:11,480
Miss Merchant.

1281
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:13,520
Okay.

1282
01:24:13,600 --> 01:24:17,680
You and Mr. Wade met in
October 2019 at a conference?

1283
01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:18,760
That is correct.

1284
01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:20,840
I think in one of your motions
you tried to implicate

1285
01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:24,520
I slept with him at that conference,
which I find to be extremely offensive.

1286
01:24:26,200 --> 01:24:29,080
All right. Keep things moving.
Next question please.

1287
01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:32,360
When was the first time
you went on vacation with Mr. Wade?

1288
01:24:33,720 --> 01:24:37,160
I took him to, like, Tennessee for
the day. I think we went to a museum.

1289
01:24:38,640 --> 01:24:41,320
And you all went to Florida
on vacation as well?

1290
01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:45,880
I don't recall going to Florida
on vacation with him.

1291
01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:51,720
Just having an affair, that's fine.
But that's not what they did.

1292
01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:53,240
So they didn't just have an affair.

1293
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:56,920
It's paying him and then
going on vacations with him

1294
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:00,360
and not keeping records
of who paid for what.

1295
01:25:00,440 --> 01:25:03,880
So your office objected
to us getting Delta records

1296
01:25:03,960 --> 01:25:06,560
for flights that you may
have taken with Mr. Wade.

1297
01:25:06,640 --> 01:25:09,920
Well, no, no, no. Look.
I object to you getting records.

1298
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:12,760
You've been intrusive into
people's personal lives.

1299
01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:14,960
You're confused.
You think I'm on trial.

1300
01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:18,160
These people are on trial
for trying to steal an election in 2020.

1301
01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:21,800
I'm not on trial, no matter how hard
you try to put me on trial.

1302
01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:28,680
The Judge rules that Willis can stay on
the case but Nathan Wade has to step down.

1303
01:25:29,640 --> 01:25:32,800
But this decision is escalated
to the Court of Appeals.

1304
01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,720
Fani Willis' case is
brought to a standstill.

1305
01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:41,920
It means that Donald Trump has
the chance to become President again

1306
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,720
without having to face
his charges in Georgia.

1307
01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:53,840
Well, I think that case
has been totally discredited.

1308
01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:59,120
It was a money-making scheme
on behalf of her and her lover, Wade,

1309
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:00,760
Mr. and Mrs. Wade.

1310
01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:04,400
And I think the case has
been totally discredited, I would hope.

1311
01:26:04,480 --> 01:26:05,480
It seems to be.

1312
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:07,840
The grandfathers,
the uncles and aunts...

1313
01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:10,720
Some of Trump's
co-defendants remain loyal.

1314
01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:15,040
I know I have to destroy an enemy.

1315
01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:20,240
I am gonna throw my hat in
the ring as press secretary

1316
01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:23,560
to speak to the world on
behalf of Donald Trump.

1317
01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:28,000
If I got that call from
the president today,

1318
01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:32,280
knowing what was going to happen,
I would absolutely do it again.

1319
01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:36,640
President Trump thinks
the country is in trouble,

1320
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:39,240
it's going the wrong direction,
and he wants to reverse that.

1321
01:26:40,560 --> 01:26:42,160
I am your warrior.

1322
01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:45,000
I am your retribution.
I am your retribution.

1323
01:26:48,480 --> 01:26:51,040
When he talks about
his retribution tour,

1324
01:26:51,680 --> 01:26:53,600
I feel like he's talking directly to me.

1325
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:56,560
I've actually been planning my getaway.

1326
01:26:56,640 --> 01:26:59,520
I will say that I won't be in the country.

1327
01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:02,120
{\an8}It's an extraordinary time
in American politics.

1328
01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:05,880
{\an8}The total initiative
relative to what we're gonna do

1329
01:27:05,960 --> 01:27:09,680
{\an8}with more Border Patrol
and more asylum officers.

1330
01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:11,160
{\an8}President Trump.

1331
01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:13,600
{\an8}I really don't know what he said
at the end of that sentence.

1332
01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:15,680
{\an8}I don't think he knows
what he said either.

1333
01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:18,720
With a presidential
candidate dropping out...

1334
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:20,080
{\an8}Take a look at what happened.

1335
01:27:21,280 --> 01:27:22,320
{\an8}Get down! Get down!

1336
01:27:22,400 --> 01:27:24,520
{\an8}Assassination attempts...

1337
01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:28,040
Go, go, go!

1338
01:27:31,480 --> 01:27:34,000
And now
there's a new candidate

1339
01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:36,640
who won't let him forget his
criminal case in Georgia.

1340
01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:39,400
Before I was elected vice president,

1341
01:27:39,480 --> 01:27:41,280
I was a courtroom prosecutor.

1342
01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:45,960
I took on perpetrators of all kinds.

1343
01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:47,920
so hear me when I say

1344
01:27:49,440 --> 01:27:51,840
I know Donald Trump's type.

1345
01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:56,360
{\an8}Kamala Harris.
Let's have a good debate.

1346
01:27:56,440 --> 01:27:58,240
{\an8}- Nice to see you. Have fun.
- Thank you.

1347
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,040
{\an8}And Georgia is
again split down the middle,

1348
01:28:02,080 --> 01:28:05,400
{\an8}with polls showing the two
candidates tied once more.

1349
01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:11,920
For Donald Trump, the judge and jury
will be the American people.
