Exclusive: Trump's Lawyers Think Mark Meadows Is Going Down
As she opened the House Jan. 6 committee hearing Tuesday, Republican Rep. Liz Cheney ticked through a list of names of people Donald Trump’s legal team have attempted to pin the blame for the Capitol attack, naming the president’s lawyers, MAGA-friend lawmakers, and others.
Mark Meadows, Trump’s former White House chief of staff, didn’t make the list — yet.
Trump’s inner circle increasingly views Meadows as a likely fall guy for the former president’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election. Members of Trump’s legal team are actively planning planning certain strategies around Meadows’ downfall — including possible criminal charges. Trump has himself begun the process of distancing himself from some of his onetime senior aide’s alleged actions around Jan. 6.
Meadows’ already bleak legal prospects could get even worse. Rolling Stone has learned that the Jan. 6 committee has been quietly probing his financial dealings, and any new revelations would add to an already long list of unethical and potential illegal actions he’s accused of taking on behalf of Donald Trump.
“Everyone is strategizing around the likelihood that Mark is in a lot of trouble,” says a lawyer close to the former president. “Everyone who knows what they’re doing, anyway.”

The way we'll know if this is what tfg thinks? Look for him to start publicly testing Meadows... He'll put out statements, or make them in interviews, along the lines of 'Mark needs to hold steady' or 'Mark should remain loyal', crap like that. We've seen it before. Meadows has been steadfastly silent and will remain so and that will not please Dear Leader... He'll start really lashing out before long. The magats will follow the leader and start attacking and threatening Meadows. Again... We've seen this play out before... With how much Meadows knows, I'm very interested to see how that plays out
