Trump Confused That Treason is Illegal
By: Interesting that the Trump team is going this route. Are they saying that he was ignorant of the law, and hence he didn't commit a crime? That he believed it was legal to direct his staff to disrupt the legal transfer of the office of Presidency of the USA because he didn't win the election?
Ellis, Chesboro, and Powell were charged alongside Trump and 15 others in connection with a vast racketeering scheme to undermine Georgia’s election results, and there was plenty for them to plead guilty to. Ellis pled guilty to one count of aiding and abetting false statements and writings for her attempts to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 win in the state. Ellis also admitted to the Colorado bar that she had repeatedly lied about the election. Chesboro accepted a guilty plea to one felony count of “conspiracy to commit filing false documents,” and Powell pled guilty to several misdemeanors in the state’s election interference case. As part of their deals, all three attorneys have agreed to testify truthfully for the prosecution as it brings its case against other defendants.
