Description
Did Emily Kohrs just save Donald Trump from prosecution in Georgia?
Kohrs is the 30-year-old woman from the Atlanta area who was between
retail jobs last year when she was suddenly tasked with one of the most
sensitive jobs in America: forewoman of the special grand jury
investigating whether Trump and his allies committed any crimes in
trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election in Georgia.
The Kohrs-led jury listened to secret testimony for eight months last
year and issued its findings and recommendations in a mostly secret
report last week. The next step in the process is for FANI WILLIS, the
district attorney of Fulton County, Ga., to decide whether she wants to
indict anyone, which would require impaneling a new grand jury with the
power to issue criminal charges.

Nov. 23, 2021: Trump’s 2024 map: Because we’re POLITICO, Marc Caputo has a story up this morning on Donald Trump's potential 2024 map. Granted, it’s not terribly surprising, centering on the five states that Joe Biden flipped in 2020. But the level of engagement within Trumpworld this far out — that we didn’t necessarily expect. by POLITICO Playbook Daily Briefing
