Will Mark Meadows use part of the $1M Trump gave him to support his 'motion to dismiss' in GA [1]

BREAKING— Mark Meadows files Motion to Dismiss RICO case in federal court, claiming he is totally immune from state-level prosecution as Trump’s former chief of staff.

Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows has long been suspected by both outside observers and members of Trump's inner circle to be cooperating with prosecutors over the plot to overturn the 2020 presidential election — and Trump's associates in particular are privately raging and branding him a "rat," said Rolling Stone politics reporter Nikki McCann Ramirez on Friday's edition of MSNBC's "All In."
This comes as Meadows, who managed to avoid charges in the federal Jack Smith probe, was indicted as part of the Georgia racketeering case into election interference in that state — and fights to have that case removed to federal court.
"Several advisers in Trump's inner circle viewed Meadows as a potential fall guy for the investigations into the former president," Ramirez told anchor Chris Hayes. "Of course, as you said, he wasn't indicted by Smith. Then in this Georgia case, compared to his co-defendants, some people think he got off a little lightly, when you compare the charges. Of course, for the Trump team, this is just fueling suspicion that Meadows is cooperating with prosecutors."
