Jack Smith has 'steady stream of witnesses' giving him the goods on January 6: ex-prosecutor

While former President Donald Trump has already been indicted on Espionage Act and obstruction of justice charges for his stash of highly classified national defense information at Mar-a-Lago, another shoe is yet to drop: the investigation into January 6, which could also put him in legal jeopardy, which like the other case is being handled by special counsel Jack Smith.

Former federal prosecutor Kristy Greenberg joined MSNBC's Chris Hayes on Wednesday to walk through where that investigation currently stands.

"All of us are essentially flying blind, right?" said Hayes. "We don't know. We can just glean together from the public clues we have. But you said predictions, look for charges and special counsel Jack Smith January 6 probe against Trump and his former lawyers this summer. What sort of moved you to make that prediction?"

"Well, there's been some public reporting that prosecutors are nearing charging decisions, but you have seen a steady stream of witnesses for the federal grand jury in recent weeks," said Greenberg. "There's also reporting that the special counsel's office, which is really pressing attorneys not to have delays, they need to get into the grand jury before the end of June. Why is that the case? presumably they have a timetable here."

Specifically, Greenberg suggested, "I'm guessing at least part of that timetable is informed by what Fani Willis is doing in Georgia. She has already said her timetable is the end of July, early- to mid-August."

"I think you can also look at the fact that they have amassed evidence from, really, Donald Trump's inner circle," Greenberg continued. "We know that his campaign officials, Gary Michael Brown has been in the grand jury, Michael Roman apparently is cooperating. He was the director of Election Day operations. State officials in all the background states. You've got, potentially, Mark Meadows, White House counsel, Mike Pence. You know, if you have this inner circle, you're really, I think at that point, nearing the end of the investigation."
