00:05 Who paid for your jet down here?
00:07 No comment.
00:08 Sir, do you regret attaching your name to the board of presidents?
00:14 I am very, very honored to be involved in this case.
00:20 Because this case is a fight for our way of life.
00:25 This indictment is a travesty.
00:28 It's an attack on not just me, not just President Trump,
00:32 not just the people in this indictment, some of whom I don't even know.
00:37 This is an attack on the American people.
00:40 This can happen to me, who is probably the most prolific prosecutor,
00:46 maybe in American history, and the most effective mayor for sure.
00:50 It can happen to you.
00:52 And the reality is...
00:54 I'm sorry, don't interrupt me, I'm making a statement.
00:58 If they can do this to me, they can do this to you.
01:01 Remember, three years ago, the FBI raided my apartment and my law office.
01:06 And they investigated me for two and a half years.
01:10 Twenty years of my life they investigated.
01:13 And they wrote a letter to the grand jury that they couldn't find a single crime.
01:18 So that should have pretty much cleared me, huh, don't you think?
01:21 Except for this ridiculous case in which I'm being prosecuted for defending an American citizen,
01:32 who I do as a lawyer, and five other lawyers are indicted.
01:38 That should tell you right away that this is an assault on our Constitution.
01:44 Fannie Willis will go down in American history
01:48 as having conducted one of the worst attacks on the American Constitution ever.
01:52 When this case is dismissed, she has violated people's First Amendment right
01:57 to advocate the government, to petition the government for grievances.
02:01 Like an election they believe was poorly conducted or falsely conducted.
02:05 People have a right to believe that in America.
02:09 Biden and the Biden state doesn't have a right to tell you what the truth is.
02:14 And number two, number two, and I will tell you, if you need to know what this is all about,
02:23 the FBI stole my iCloud account.
02:27 And you know when they went and stole it?
02:29 The day that I began representing Donald Trump four years ago.
02:33 You know when they gave it back? The day after I represented Donald Trump.
02:37 So for all that time, the federal government was spying on Donald Trump and his lawyer.
02:46 I am being indicted because I'm a lawyer, as is Professor and everyone else.
02:52 [crowd shouting]
02:57 By the way, you're wrong. I didn't do that.
02:59 I entered into a stipulation for the purposes of that case to move on.
03:04 It specifically says I do not in any way admit the truth of those allegations.
03:09 Those allegations are totally false.
03:11 [crowd shouting]
03:14 That is absolutely wrong and you're lying, as you often do.
03:19 If you read it, it says it was only for the purposes of that case and it was not an admission.
03:23 [crowd shouting]
