explain. again, i don t think they re providing, we ll, first of all, the overstock person, i don t know who this guy was. at times there is people shouting at each other, throwing insults at each other. both challenge which is saying and she says, well, the judges are corrupt. i was like, everyone? every single case that you ve done in the country has lost, every one of them is, kropyvnytsky pointed? and i m being nice, i was much more harsh to her. what do you make of this new reporting, glenn? what does this tell you about the stage of this investigation? are you at all surprised that it s emerging now about jack smith looking into that december 18th meeting? i would be surprised if jack smith was only getting around to investigating this now. we don t know how long he s been talking with people are putting people before the grand jury regarding this meeting. if we take one aspect of the
separate alleged crimes. a hush money scheme and the classified documents saga. now he is potentially facing yet another. special counsel jack smith s investigation into trump s efforts to overturn the election, it s clearly escalating this week. cnn has learned that smith is focused on a chaotic shouting match that you might remember unfolded at the white house six weeks aftethe election. now, that is where these baseless ideas were floated, to block president biden s victory, including martial law and seizing voting machines. here are some of those who were in attendance at that meeting in their own words. i walked in, i saw general flynn, i saw sidney powell sitting there. i was not happy to see the people in the oval office explain why. well, again, i don t think they were providing first of all, the overstock person, i
