Michigan’s attorney general filed forgery and other felony charges Tuesday against 16 Republican activists who signed papers after the 2020 election falsely indicating they were the duly appointed presidential electors for the state.
The case filed by Attorney General Dana Nessel, a Democrat, represents the first criminal charges related to efforts by allies of former President Donald Trump to designate alternate slates of electors. The scheme would ultimately become the basis for Trump’s last-ditch bid to remain in power, an effort to create a contest or crisis when Congress met to tally up the Electoral College votes and certify Joe Biden’s victory on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump used the existence of those “competing” slates of electors to pressure his vice president, Mike Pence, to block Biden’s election.
Some would-be electors and their allies have said the alternate slates were part of a contingency plan intended to buttress other legal moves by Trump to challenge the 2020 election results. However, those legal challenges famously fizzled in court, leaving those who signed the documents and others who organized the efforts facing investigation and potential legal jeopardy.
As the Traitor and Rapist is facing yet another Federal Indictment and Fulton County D.A. Fani Willis about to lower the boom as well things will only continue to get worse. Word has it that the Rapist and Traitor as a "
Leader" in 010-06 Insurrection.
And just for shits and giggles, it seems after Ghouli's sit down with Special Prosecutor Smith, will be spared a target letter. Maybe good old Ghouli spilled on the Rapist and Traitor.
