Mark Meadows Testimony: STANDS BY Attempting to have the Case Transferred to Federal Court
During a three-hour testimony on Monday in front of an Atlanta federal judge, Mark Meadows’s testimony and his actions in Georgia during the 2020 election were necessary as part of his responsibilities as Donald Trump’s chief of staff.
Mark Meadows’s testimony in support of his request to transfer his racketeering case from Fulton County to federal court to obtain a more representative jury.
He is one of 19 defendants, along with Donald Trump, accused of attempting to void Joe Biden’s victory in the state. In the first significant court proceeding related to the prosecution brought by Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis, Mark Meadows’s testimony defended his actions.

Later, in Mark Meadows’s testimony, “I just didn’t ask Johnny McEntee for this kind of a memo.”
