BREAKING: Indicted Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows files a desperate legal motion begging a Georgia court to “prohibit” Atalanta Fulton County District Attorney from “arresting or causing” his arrest and to throw out his case and move it to federal court.
But it gets WORSE…
His legal motion has to be read to be believed…
It reads, “Defendant Mark R. Meadows hereby moves for the Court “promptly” to permit removal and “so notify the State court,” 28 U.S.C. § 1455(b)(5), without a hearing and before Noon on Friday, August 25, 2023, in order to protect Mr. Meadows from arrest prior to this Court’s upcoming hearing on removal. Granting removal immediately and notifying the state court is the most efficient way to effectuate relief. Federal courts have permitted removal without first holding the evidentiary hearing contemplated by § 1455(b)(5) where, as here, the defendant’s entitlement to removal can be determined without one.
Alternatively, the Court can effectuate relief by issuing an order to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis—who is a party to the matter before the Court—prohibiting her from arresting or causing the arrest of Mr. Meadows before the Monday hearing.”
Unbelievable. Because Trump thinks that he is king of the United States, apparently Meadows, his co-defendant, also thinks that he is entitled to special treatment under the law.
Meadows is shamelessly trying to get his Georgia case moved over to federal court — where he obviously thinks he will get a better outcome with a different judge and jury.
Also, Meadows knows that he can’t be pardoned by a Republican president for crimes that he committed in Georgia — because presidents can only pardon federal convictions — so this is hard prison time that he will HAVE to serve if and when he is convicted by a Georgia court.
Unfortunately for him, he committed serious felonies against Georgia voters — and it’s very likely that the judge will laugh off his desperate demand.
