GEORGIA ELECTION INTERFERENCE CASE UPDATE
Mastodon Post

Headlines right now say two or in one case three Georgia election interference charges against Trump have been dismissed by the judge. Evidently the art of headline writing has been paused today. Check to see what those headlines missed.

A judge has dismissed three more counts in the Georgia election interference case against former President Donald Trump and his allies.

But in a separate ruling, the judge upheld the bedrock charge in the indictment — racketeering.

-- NPR News

Racketeering charge upheld is a pretty big omission.

Appeals Court Makes STRANGE MOVES in Trump RICO Case

YouTube

Monday I want to see arrests of people who've been threatening witnesses, judges, prosecutors & their families on behalf of #Trump.
I want to see mugshots & read indictments for true threats made via voicemail, email, & on ANY social media, TS, Gab, Patriot. Win, X, or Rumble.

This should be done to punish the offenders & to act as a deterrent for other #MAGA people making #threats of #violence.

Trump's team cites First Amendment in contesting charges in Georgia election interference case

A lawyer for former President Donald Trump has argued that the charges against Donald Trump in the Georgia election interference case seek to criminalize political speech that the First Amendment protects. The hearing Thursday before a Georgia judge was on a filing from Trump and on two pretrial motions by a co-defendant and centered on technical legal arguments. Trump lawyer Steve Sadow said a sitting president expressing concerns about an election is “the height of political speech” and that's protected even if what was said ended up being false. A prosecutor contended that Trump’s statements aren't protected by the First Amendment because they were integral to criminal activity.

Georgia cops should've anticipated those threats! Where are the arrests?

Inside Trump’s campaign to demonize two Georgia election workers

Desperate to overturn his election loss, the Trump team spun a sprawling voter-fraud fiction with two rank-and-file election workers, a mother and her daughter, as the main villains.

Thanks for posting here @JillWineBanks!
I hate to go to Xitter. I just listened to the latest #SistersInLaw podcast (without you!)
They discussed #JudgeMcAfee 's order on Willis & Wade. But they didn't discuss that he delayed the order because he had been receiving threats & waited for proper security for him & his family.

#BarbMcQuade talks about law enforcement's reluctance to investigate & prosecute threats in her book. How do push for action?
