The DOJ has reportedly gotten a former Trump campaign official to cooperate with them in their phony January 6th investigation regarding the so-called ‘fake electors plot’.
Here’s more from Newsmax:
The New York Times is reporting that a former President Donald Trump 2020 campaign official may cooperate with Department of Justice special counsel Jack Smith’s probe of Jan. 6, 2021, election interference.
According to the report, Michael Roman, Trump’s director of Election Day operations, is talking with Smith’s office about giving an interview called a “proffer” to prosecutors working for Smith. Should he do so, according to The Times, it would be the first known instance of cooperation by a key player in the “fake electors” plan at the heart of Smith’s investigation.
The fake electors plan involved creating pro-Trump slates of electors in key swing states that Joe Biden narrowly won in 2020 to give then-Vice President Mike Pence a reason to challenge the certification of the 2020 Electoral College vote count during a joint session of Congress on Jan. 6, 2021, the day Trump supporters rioted at the U.S. Capitol.
Several people involved testified before a grand jury last week…
The report said that several people involved in the fake electors’ plot testified in front of a federal grand jury in Washington, D.C., including Roman’s deputy, Gary Michael Brown, who testified Thursday.
The Times said it has reviewed emails it obtained last summer that show Roman doing much of the “legwork” for the scheme and assembling a team of lawyers and aides to assist that effort.
“We would just be sending in ‘fake’ electoral votes to Pence so that ‘someone’ in Congress can make an objection when they start counting votes and start arguing that the ‘fake’ votes should be counted,” The Times reported Jack Wilenchik, a Phoenix-based lawyer who was helping to organize the pro-Trump electors in Arizona, writing in a December 2020 email reviewed by the publication.
As has been pointed out by Mark Levin and others, there is nothing illegal with having alternate state electors. It is up to Congress to decide whether to accept or reject these electors. And if there’s nothing illegal about it, then Team Trump did nothing wrong. Just another reason why this phony investigation is a farce.
