Mark Meadows testifies in bid to move Georgia election case to federal court

Trump's White House chief of staff argues he acted in capacity as federal officer and that case should be moved to federal court

The sprawling 41-count indictment of Donald Trump and 18 other defendants in Fulton county had its first test on Monday as Mark Meadows, the former White House chief of staff, took the stand before a federal judge over his request to move his Georgia election interference case from state to federal court.

Meadows testified for nearly three hours before the court broke for lunch, defending his actions as Trump's chief of staff while avoiding questions regarding whether he believed Trump won in 2020.
