S2 Ep1018: Andrew Weissmann and Patrick Gaspard: Naked Corruption

Yeah, I think that's right. But I also feel like I think the law firms are a good example of this. Even if it goes nowhere... the chilling effect is huge. So I don't know what the University of Pennsylvania's reaction is going to be. If SentinelOne, the company that Chris works with, they, I assume, need their security clearance in order to do some of their work.

So this could have real consequences in the real world. And I think what the administration's counting on is the effect on other people. So like what the University of Pennsylvania will do, what companies will do, thinking, you know what? We want to keep our head down. We don't want to be on the radar screen. So it remains to be seen just how serious it is.

At the end of the day, I'm still an institutionalist, so I still think, you know what? Good luck making a criminal case on Chris Krebs. You want to have a trial on whether there was fraud in the election? Well, the last time the courts dealt with this, you lost 60 cases on that.

although it's not as many as you would hope, but I still think there are lots and lots of lawyers who are reputable and believe in the profession of law and the fact that you have to zealously advocate for people. Here's just another irony. You would think that a president who has been through four criminal cases would understand the importance and need for defense counsel.
