TL;DR Summary

Former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows has "an argument to make" in moving his Georgia case, in which he's charged with racketeering alongside former President Trump, to federal court. Meadows seeks the advantages of a more politically friendly judge and jury, as well as the ability to assert immunity due to his time in the executive branch. Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie, a former federal prosecutor, acknowledges the argument but believes it won't change the outcome significantly. Meadows is the first of the co-defendants to request a venue switch, and a decision could impact other defendants.
