Two more of former President Donald Trump's allies, including his former chief of staff Mark Meadows, have struck deals with prosecutors in criminal cases against Trump. Meadows was granted immunity in a federal case involving the Jan. 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol and Trump's alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 election results. Meadows has reportedly informed federal investigators that he repeatedly told Trump that the allegations of significant voting fraud were baseless. This revelation raises the possibility that Meadows could testify against Trump in the federal case.

In addition to Meadows, attorney Jenna Ellis has pleaded guilty in the Fulton County case and becomes the fourth defendant to reach a plea deal with prosecutors. Ellis, who was a constant presence during Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 elections, expressed deep remorse for representing Trump in the post-election challenges.

Both Meadows and Ellis' cooperation with prosecutors highlight the growing legal problems for Trump. The cases against him are becoming increasingly challenging as more allies flip and potentially share damaging information about his alleged involvement in election interference. However, politically, Trump continues to gain support within the Republican Party, potentially using his ongoing legal battles as a basis for a future campaign.
