MSNBC’s Jill Wine-Banks: ‘We Now Live in an Authoritarian Dictatorship’

JACKSON We don t ░░░░░░░░ What if he s ░░░░░░░░ and then ignores it ░░░░░░░░ WINE BANKS Well that ░░░░░░░░ the trickiest one is ░░░░░░░░ fourth option Because it ░░░░░░░░ something we debated during ░░░░░░░░ In in Watergate of ░░░░░░░░ we issued and I ░░░░░░░░ going to use legal ░░░░░░░░ for the first time ░░░░░░░░ air maybe just because ░░░░░░░░ want to use them ░░░░░░░░ we had JACKSON I ░░░░░░░░ ask you to translate ░░░░░░░░ but OK WINE BANKS ░░░░░░░░ We we had a ░░░░░░░░ for documents is the ░░░░░░░░ technical term JACKSON OK ░░░░░░░░ BANKS as opposed to ░░░░░░░░ subpoena testificandum for his ░░░░░░░░ which is a slightly ░░░░░░░░ type of thing And ░░░░░░░░ president did fight us ░░░░░░░░ we ended up in ░░░░░░░░ Supreme Court with them ░░░░░░░░ yes you have a ░░░░░░░░ to these documents And ░░░░░░░░ had to produce the ░░░░░░░░ Then you have the ░░░░░░░░ of how do you ░░░░░░░░ get them Who do ░░░░░░░░ send in If he ░░░░░░░░ decided I will not ░░░░░░░░ I don t care ░░░░░░░░ the Supreme Court says ░░░░░░░░ what do you do ░░░░░░░░ can t just knock ░░░░░░░░ the door and say ░░░░░░░░ m coming in unlike ░░░░░░░░ president who sent his ░░░░░░░░ to get medical records ░░░░░░░░ any warning crosstalk JACKSON ░░░░░░░░ that we ll be ░░░░░░░░ about that later in ░░░░░░░░ show but that s ░░░░░░░░ crosstalk WINE BANKS Right ░░░░░░░░ JACKSON So but here ░░░░░░░░ the is the bigger ░░░░░░░░ related to and again ░░░░░░░░ are a lot of ░░░░░░░░ would have to go ░░░░░░░░ place but about whether ░░░░░░░░ president a sitting president ░░░░░░░░ be indicted WINE BANKS ░░░░░░░░ is a question about ░░░░░░░░ he can be indicted ░░░░░░░░ that I believe would ░░░░░░░░ answered yes he can ░░░░░░░░ Obviously this is JACKSON ░░░░░░░░ WINE BANKS inconsistent with ░░░░░░░░ Office of Legal Counsel ░░░░░░░░ that is not the ░░░░░░░░ question as whether he ░░░░░░░░ be subpoenaed And the ░░░░░░░░ to that seems to ░░░░░░░░ is a clear yes ░░░░░░░░ can be He is ░░░░░░░░ not above that rule ░░░░░░░░ he would have to ░░░░░░░░ And if he doesn ░░░░░░░░ I think America should ░░░░░░░░ that we are now ░░░░░░░░ an authoritarian dictatorship that ░░░░░░░░ must rise up against ░░░░░░░░ would be unthinkable to ░░░░░░░░ that he wouldn t ░░░░░░░░ with the valid subpoena.”
