Meadows has reportedly testified to a federal grand jury as part of Special Counsel Jack Smith's dual criminal investigations of Trump.
earlier on Tuesday that Meadows did testify before a federal grand jury as part of Smith's dual investigations of the former president, answering questions about Trump's ill-fated attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election outcome and issues related to his post-presidency handling of classified documents. It is unclear when Meadows testified.
Kirschner speculated that Meadows testified under one of two scenarios. Under the first scenario, Meadows would have testified as"a formal cooperating witness," having been given an ultimatum by Smith and pleading guilty to unknown and still-sealed charges. The second scenario, which Kirschner dubbed a"travesty," involves Meadows being granted immunity from prosecution in exchange for his testimony.
Former President Donald Trump and former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows are pictured outside the White House in Washington, D.C., on July 29, 2020. Meadows recently testified as part of Special Counsel Jack Smith's federal criminal investigation of the former president, according to multiple media reports that emerged on Tuesday.
"Mark Meadows would get a free pass for enabling Donald Trump on and around January 6," he added."Let's hope Jack Smith went hard and made Mark Meadows take responsibility for his crimes." Meadows lawyer George Terwilliger did not comment on whether his client did testify but said in a statement tothat Meadows"has maintained a commitment to tell the truth where he has a legal obligation to do so.
