#JudgeKaplan: "Mr. Trump, keep your voice down."

Asked if #Trump would say anything other than #proffer, #Habba said she doesn't have a "crystal ball."

Trump again interjected.

Kaplan: “Sorry Mr. Trump, you’re interrupting these proceedings by talking loudly while your counsel is talking.”

When Habba began talking about what her client has a right to do, Kaplan responded: "Ms. Habba, I will decide what he has the right to do. That’s my job, not yours."

Jenna Ellis, Sidney Powell describe plan to overturn 2020 Election - Political IQ

In video of proffer interviews, Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell describe to prosecutors plans to overturn the 2020 Presidential election.

Political IQ

Former Donald Trump campaign official #Mike #Roman is cooperating with prosecutors from #special #counsel Jack Smith’s team in the ongoing #criminal #probe related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election, two sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

One of the sources said that the agreement, known as a #proffer #agreement, means that Roman may not have to appear before the grand jury but could instead speak to prosecutors in a more informal setting. Under such an agreement, prosecutors generally agree not to use those statements against them in future criminal proceedings.
