podcast, the sisters in law podcast. and joined by jennifer horn. barbara, sam nunberg says there s less than 10% prosecutors could get to trump through weisselberg. if he doesn t flip, are the charges worth it in the end? well, first, i think the charges that have already been alleged are significant. i know that president trump and lawyers have tried to minimize them as no big deal but a 15-year scheme to evade taxes, weisselberg alone to the tune of $1.7 million, is already a significant charge. but even if allen weisselberg doesn t flip i think there s still some approaches here. number one, we heard attorney general leticia james continues. bank fraud and insurance fraud are also things on their radar. but there s also an other option which is to take the weisselberg case to the end.
