Was the million dollars Trump gave Meadows not enough. There are too many people with which Trump could tamper, but how much could he scrape up.
Mark Meadows previously represented North Carolina's 11th Congressional District from 2013 to 2020, chairing the far-right Freedom Caucus in his later years. Considered a close ally to former President Donald Trump, he was brought in to serve as his chief of staff in March 2020 replacing acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, who took over following the departure of John Kelly from the role.
During his time in the role, Meadows was accused of participating in Trump's attempts to overturn or circumvent his loss to Joe Biden in the 2020 election. He was previously ordered to testify before a grand jury investigating Trump and his allies' attempts to allegedly commit election fraud in Georgia, and was most recently subpoenaed by Jack Smith, the Department of Justice's (DOJ) special counsel handling various investigations into the former president.
During an appearance on MSNBC's The Katie Phang Show on Saturday morning, Joyce Vance, an outspoken critic of Trump, said that Meadows' recent behavior indicates that he might be cooperating with the DOJ. Host Katie Phang expressed such suspicions due to the fact that "he's been so darn quiet." Vance also highlighted the fact that Meadows' past behavior related to other Trump investigations might indicate that his cooperation is not a certainty.

Hope along with Cassidy's lawyer changing means Weisselberg could give Previous Guy up
Sources are telling WNBC that Allen Weisselberg, the former CFO of the Trump Organization, has fired his Trump Org lawyers.
Weisselberg is not the first one to do something like this. Michael Cohen did it just before he flipped on Trump. Cassidy Hutchinson had a Trump-funded lawyer before she fired him and got another lawyer so she could tell the Jan. 6 investigatory committee the truth about what she learned working for former chief of staff Mark Meadows. Each time a Trump-funded lawyer was fired, it has been an indication that those previous allies were about to turn.
Weisselberg is serving a five-month sentence in a Rikers Island jail, known for being one of the most violent in America. MSNBC's Ali Velshi noted that if someone was trying to get Weisselberg to flip, now would be the time. Last month, the New York Times reported that the Manhattan prosecutor's office was pondering whether to file new charges against Weisselberg for fraud.

"Trump insisting on the election being stolen and convincing 25% of Americans was a huge disservice to the country. Pretty much a crime. Inevitable it blew up Jan 6th." --Rupert Murdoch
