Trump requests new review of intel. docs; “The Devil’s Advocate” turns 25 as Trump tests how far real-life lawyers will go

MSNBC's Ari Melber hosts "The Beat" on Monday, August 22, 2022 and reports on Donald Trump’s legal team filing a motion to appoint a special master for an extra layer of review over seized documents from Mar-A-Lago. Plus, how recent Trump controversies, including the DOJ reviewing whether his lawyers illegally lied and Rudy Giuliani being formally “targeted” for charges in Georgia, echo some of the themes in the classic legal film “The Devil’s Advocate,” such as “how far” lawyers will go for their client and when do they become part of potential crimes they are supposed to defend. “The Devil’s Advocate” author Andrew Neiderman joins “The Beat” on the 25th anniversary of the film, along with Chai Komanduri, NYU law professor Melissa Murray and Fmr. Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal. To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
