Trump's Chief of Staff Granted Immunity
Mark Meadows joins a growing list of Trump's inner circle and attorneys that are cooperating with state and federal prosecutors to save themselves.
ABC News reports that Trump's former Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, has been cooperating with federal prosecutors and was granted immunity to testify under oath. Meadows helped Trump spread the Big Lie of election fraud and was with Trump during the January 6 Attack on the Capitol. Although not charged in federal court, Meadows has been indicted as Trump's co-conspirator for violating the Georgia RICO act and Solicitation of Violation of Oath by a Public Officer.
