Very Important to remember the facts as Trump resurrects his 2020 Lie.
Kenneth Chesebro.
The MOST important figure in the Fulton case.
He was the lawyer who designed the scheme.
He was:
-deposed in Fulton
-pled guilty
-told ALL the details about Trump’s plots.
These DIRECTLY dispute Trump’s current Fulton claims:
Kenneth was responsible first and foremost for arranging the fake electorate scheme.
He admitted:
* He knew Trump did NOT win the election.
* Trump knew it.
* They planned to use it regardless of election outcome.
* He came up with the false claim that it was standard practice to cover-up this plot.
Legally for the fake elector scheme to work, there *HAD TO* be an active lawsuit in each of those states contesting the election.
Both Cheesebro admitted the Sidney Powell case was that filing for Georgia.
Sidney Powell confessed the Fulton Georgia case was fraudulent, and pled guilty.
Kenneth also knew there was a chance that Mike Pence would NOT go along with the plan.
So he:
* Ensured some of the certificates were not sent directly
* He arranged for them the be flown to the Capitol and handed to the staffer of a complicit member of Congress
It was covered in his emails.
He admitted to working with Mike Roman, and the offices of Scott Perry and Ron Johnson, to sneak the fake certificates onto the floor and hand them to Pence.
This way if Pence declined to certify the fake electorate ones sent directly, then they could still pass this off to him.
This was referred to in emails as their “back-up plan”
They knew the Electoral Count Act was constitutional and that their strategy would be struck down.
Admitting that during his deposition is what led to him seeking a plea deal.
Cheesebro, Powell and others flat out admitted:
* The only way in which there was any legal argument that Pence could adjudicate elector slates was IF that state had pending litigation.
* The litigation did not have to be valid.
* They admitted their Fulton County claims were fraudulent, as justification for Georgia.
* While they thought it *may* be legal for the VP to pick between two slates (and would be challenged to SCOTUS) they *KNEW* it was illegal to plan to create those slates.
* They admitted they KNEW Trump lost those states, and tried to put in new electors anyway.
* They KNEW the documents were legally forgeries, which is why they had to sneak them into the Capitol with complicit Congress members’ staffers.
* And they KNEW Pence would object to the disputed ones, so they tried to pass off other fakes to him last minute.
This is how we know Trump’s Fulton County case is bullsh!t
Because his own lawyers admitted it in court.
They admit it was cover for their forgery strategy, and that they know he lost the election.
This has already been investigated.
In Fulton County and by Jack Smith.
And his own lawyers aren’t even arguing against those outcomes.
