#JackSmith #FinalReport pg 24:

"[On Dec 16] Co-Conspirator 5 traveled to Washington [to inform Mr. Trump about the #FakeElector scheme.

[3 days after that, Trump issued his 'Be there. It'll be wild' tweet.] That same day, Co-Conspirator 5 notified another attendee of the Dec 16 Oval Office meeting of Mr. Trump's Tweet, and he
indicated that Mr. Trump had privately foreshadowed his plans for January 6, writing, "Wow. Based on 3 days ago, I think we have unique understanding of this." 😵

Former #Michigan #Republican Party co-chair #MeshawnMaddock was called out over the weekend for using a #HomophobicSlur to describe an openly #gay political opponent in her state.

Maddock, who last year pleaded not guilty to accusations related to posing as #FakeElector for #Trump, was put on the spot by a reporter in January after she attacked his reporting as "fake news."

Last night's #TRMS highlights:

a) T****'s dwindling crowds must be agonizing for him.

b) Across the country, #RNC is running carpetbaggers with fake origin stories to appeal to locals.

c) The #AZGOP sent two 🦇 💩 😜 conspiracy theorists to represent the state in the #RNC (one of whom was just indicted as a #FakeElector).

...and since it is highly likely that we will see more state & national Republican officials get arrested as part of the various #FakeElector conspiracies around the country in the coming months, it would be a tragic mistake if Democrats didn't prepare the public for what they are witnessing, so that it can't be dismissed or manipulated by the Republicans for political gain.

A grand jury in #Arizona has indicted 18 of #Trump's closest advisors — including fmr WH Chief of Staff #MarkMeadows & fmr NYC Mayor Rudy #Giuliani. The defendants are accused of being involved in a #FakeElector scheme that sought to keep Trump in office despite his loss in the 2020 election. The indictment alleges that after President Biden won the #2020election, Trump's allies conspired to give AZ's 11 electoral votes to Trump anyway.

I don't know for sure, but if my pick for President of the United States in 2024 was a 4 time indicted candidate, I rather he was an unindicted co-conspirator in the #Arizona #FakeElector scheme instead of the indicted #conspirator.

Fortunately, I am a #Democrat and I don't have to worry myself over that type of thing. My #MAGArepublican neighbors don't agree with me. They want more indictments.

It's almost like they don't understand how serious it is to be criminally #indicted.

THIS IS INTERESTING.

On yesterday's "#Countdown" podcast, Keith Olbermann points out that in 2022 Congress "clarified" what constituted a "#FakeElector", which includes language from the 14th Amendment.

If #Democrats retake the House, even if (by some disaster), #TheOrangeMenace gets re-elected, thanks to the #SCotUS, we now have a remedy. 👍 omny.fm/shows/countdown-with-k

omny.fmSCOTUS CREATES WAY TO DISQUALIFY TRUMP AFTER THE ELECTION - 3.6.24 - Countdown with Keith OlbermannSERIES 2 EPISODE 135: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN Haley was winning Vermont, Uncommitted was doing ok but Biden’s worst margin was about 60 points, and once again Super Tuesday is just a brand name. But the HEADLINE is: the Supreme Court actually HAS left the door open to disqualify Trump from becoming president again. Seriously. Turns out that many Constitutional Scholars and even some sitting members of the House, think that in its haste to make sure their pimp Trump got on to the ballot yesterday in Colorado, the Court ALSO left the door open to Democrats and disaffected Republicans challenging the validity of a Trump election if god forbid it plays out like that. There is now a debate over the consequences of the court ruling that the Constitution gives ENFORCEMENT of the 14th Amendment “to Congress.” Practically speaking: Trump wins the electoral college, the Democrats hold the Senate (slightly unlikely) and take the House (very likely), and they are suddenly going to pass new legislation saying Trump is ineligible because he engaged in insurrection in 2021? Well they don’t HAVE to pass new legislation. They already did that, according to this reading, in 2022. It was “The Electoral Count Reform And Presidential Transition Act” designed to clarify the 1887 legislation through whose loopholes Trump tried to run his coup. The 2022 clarification closed nearly all of those loopholes, limiting what kinds of challenges lawmakers could make to electoral slates already certified by the states. But they left two grounds for objections challenges and one of them reads “the vote of one or more electors has not been regularly given.” THAT phrase was in the 19th Century legislation and it means, any suspicion that an elector was BRIBED to vote, or was like kidnapped and the guy casting the vote wasn’t the REAL elector, or voted on the wrong day, or… the elector voted for somebody who wasn’t eligible. Oops. Voted… for somebody who wasn’t elllllligggggggible, you say? It’s not just a can of worms. It’s a FAMILY SIZED can of worms. Thank you Sam Alito! ALSO: Trump just publicly contradicted his court filing in New York that he didn’t have the $465 million he owes. Asked about coming up with it on Fox, he answered: “I have a lot of money. I can do what I want to do…I don’t worry about money.” MEANWHILE: It’s mortifying but it may be a quick fix. A Democratic pollster has analyzed the field of potential Biden voters in three swing states and figured out that only 31% of them had even heard Trump’s top ten worst statements about vermin and deportation and dictatorship, because voters are not immersed in politics and people do move on with their lives. The good news is that the moment they HEAR all of them, Trump’s unfavorable score jumps by five points and individual deficits grow from five to nine points. Solution? More ads reminding people Trump is an anti-dictatorial son of a bitch. Like, you know, one in every commercial break on every television channel and streamer every day until the election. Oh – and emphasizing it in tomorrow’s State of the Union wouldn’t hurt. Did I mention I’ll be on, live, after it, for our Countdown post-game show, on YouTube and Twitch? B-Block (23:14) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Roger Stone thinks Facebook conspired to stop his astroturf. Axios still hasn’t fixed its LOLworthy story about Trump pivoting. And the appointment of a Hong Kong native here legally on a pre-citizenship visa to the San Francisco Election Commission to help with translating voting materials into other languages has deranged a bunch of fascists who are treating this as if Mao Tse Dong was just named to the Supreme Court. Maria Bartiromo thinks the San Francisco Election Commission is also the Federal Election Commission. And Michigan House candidate Anthony Hudson says we must have laws saying if you don’t speak English you can’t vote. Which’ll be a problem for Anthony because he can barely SPELL English. C-Block (33:10) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: We had a president of MSNBC, he had been the president of CNN, and among other things he didn’t have cable in his home and apparently hadn’t watched any night-time show on MSNBC for at least a year. He also lied about his height, and he was – legitimately – 6’4”. Who the hell DOES that?

That #Republican expressed skepticism about the #FakeElectors plan but told others he was going along w/it in part because he feared he would face blowback from #Trump supporters if he didn’t.

The lawsuit, filed last yr by 2 of the state’s rightful electors, alleged #Republicans had taken part in a #conspiracy to #defraud #voters & sought up to $200k from each Trump #FakeElector. No money is being exchanged as part of the #settlement.
