Remember that a subpoena to Kathy Berden is what got Liz Cheney censured (she's very close to Ronna McDaniel).

Now she has been charged with a felony (by MI's badass AG).

These people all face jail bc Trump fucked them over.

@GottaLaff I think it’s very odd that the fake elector who’s playing dumb and claiming not to even know what an elector is, once ran in a state election.
