  1. Chesebro who flipped in the Georgia case is now probably flipping in the Nevada and Arizona cases.

    I will be interested to see if he cooperates with the Michigan case.

    > A Nevada state-level criminal investigation into the fake electors plot intended to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 election win is ramping up with prosecutors securing the cooperation of a key witness, even as some of those who served as pro-Trump electors remain politically active ahead of the 2024 election.
    >
    > Kenneth Chesebro, a lawyer who helped orchestrate the fake electors plot across multiple states, has agreed to sit down with Nevada investigators in hopes of avoiding prosecution there, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
    >
    > Chesebro’s cooperation with Nevada prosecutors covers his involvement in that state leading up to January 6, 2021 – when pro-Trump rioters stormed the US Capitol in an attempt to prevent Congress from certifying Biden’s legitimate electoral victory.

    …
    >
    > Chesebro also has been contacted by prosecutors in Arizona related to their investigation into fake electors, according to two sources familiar with the matter. The status of those talks is unclear. The Washington Post reported Thursday that **Chesebro plans to meet with investigators in Arizona and Nevada and that he is expected to testify in front of a Nevada grand jury.**

  2. Man. It’s almost as if Trump tried to steal the 2020 election – the exact thing he accuses literally *everyone* else of doing all the time including Ted Cruz.

  4. First, I wonder if his attorney is still trying to claim that Chesebro’s testimony isn’t going to help the prosecution.

    Second, while I understand Willis’ need to make a deal to get to trump, I was not happy that there were essentially no consequences for Chesebro in GA. This, however, would make me happy:

    >Special counsel prosecutors in the federal case against Trump could still seek Chesebro’s testimony or potentially bring separate charges against him in the future.

    And finally, in the elections have consequences category:

    >Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has launched an investigation into the fake elector scheme there.

  6. Just wondering, since Arizona and Nevada have access to the evidence he provided in Georgia, it’s likely that he gets a worse deal right? The deal should be based on what he can give them that they don’t already have I think. I would guess he was smart enough to hold evidence that was pertinent to each state individually to account for this, but anything he has for the at large case seems to be good only once.

    IANAL, so that’s conjecture on my part. Someone let me know if this is not right.

  8. GET FUCKED DONALD. Same goes for the entire GOP that’s supported this wannabe dictator.
