Andrew Weisman-DOJ policy suggests that Mark Meadows means he is not a target of grand jury

8. Joyce Vance said the opposite on Stephanie Ruhle

...said he could very well be a target.

That targets are sometimes compelled to come before grand juries.

a sample target letter taken right from the U.S. Attorneys’ Criminal Resource Manual:

This letter is supplied to a witness scheduled to appear before the federal Grand Jury in order to provide helpful background information about the Grand Jury. The Grand Jury consists of from sixteen to twenty-three persons from the District of ___. It is their responsibility to inquire into federal crimes which may have been committed in this District.

As a Grand Jury witness you will be asked to testify and answer questions, and to produce records and documents. Only the members of the Grand Jury, attorneys for the United States and a stenographer are permitted in the Grand Jury room while you testify.

We advise you that the Grand Jury is conducting an investigation of possible violations of federal criminal laws involving, but not necessarily limited to _______*. You are advised that the destruction or alteration of any document required to be produced before the grand jury constitutes serious violation of federal law, including but not limited to Obstruction of Justice.

You are advised that you are a target of the Grand Jury’s investigation. You may refuse to answer any question if a truthful answer to the question would tend to incriminate you. Anything that you do or say may be used against you in a subsequent legal proceeding. If you have retained counsel, who represents you personally, the Grand Jury will permit you a reasonable opportunity to step outside the Grand Jury room and confer with counsel if you desire.

Weissman, with all of his experience, has been loose with the facts of this investigation in several instances. Old enough to remember when he claimed there wasn't an investigation into the Trump WH at all, at a time when there were open moves from Lisa Monaco when she came onboard to secure evidence like cell phones and other communications, not to mention the DOJ's financial probe that began in 2021.

Grain of salt with these tv pundits who feel the need to cover their mistaken characterizations of the mostly secret Garland probe with suggestions DOJ has been too slow or unfocused.
