Former President Donald Trump signed legal documents describing evidence of election fraud that he knew were false, a federal judge indicated on Wednesday.
U.S. District Court Judge David Carter wrote in an 18-page opinion that emails from attorney John Eastman, an architect of Trump’s last-ditch effort to subvert the 2020 election, needed to be turned over to the Jan. 6 select committee. Those emails, Carter wrote, “show that President Trump knew that the specific numbers of voter fraud were wrong but continued to tout those numbers, both in court and to the public.”
The emails are among the files that Eastman had been declining to turn over to the committee, citing attorney-client privilege. While Carter concluded that some of the materials fell under that privilege, he ruled that Eastman must disclose four emails to congressional investigators because they are evidence of a likely crime.
“The Court finds that these four documents are sufficiently related to and in furtherance of the obstruction crime,” wrote Carter, who is based in California.
According to Carter, Trump and his attorneys alleged in a Dec. 4 filing in Georgia state court that Fulton County had improperly counted more than 10,000 votes of dead people, felons and unregistered voters. They then moved that proceeding to federal court and discussed whether to use the same statistics in that filing. In private correspondence, Trump’s lawyers noted that the then-president had resisted signing documents containing “specific numbers.” On Dec. 31, Eastman emailed other Trump lawyers that the numbers filed in state court were not accurate.

Serving isn’t a guarantee of being a patriot. Nor is combat.
Didn’t Fidel Castro, Mao , Hitler , Pol Pot, Stalin and IDi Amin all serve with combat experience for their evil sides ?
Good point!
How do they know the number were fraudulent, since no one investigated any claims?
Doesn’t mean he knew and believed they were false numbers only that he wasn’t trying to be in a gotcha game where he swears to 101 and then the court finds it was really 99 instead. Nothing wrong with caution after what he’d been put through.
The lawyers have a duty to the truth before the court. If they had reason to disbelieve the numbers they should’ve said NO even to Trump. How can a man trying to get his day in court be under stricter scrutiny than any of the cabal who involved themselves in the Russia hoax fraud? Trump is no lawyer unlike many of those involved in the greatest American hoax of our time.
Because it’s been deemed so lol
Precisely! Could it be that Carter just allowed Trump to do a forensic audit on the election results?
So he’s a faggot groomer too.
Geez, you’d think someone would moonlight a Clinton bagman to take care of the crumb.
From Wikipedia: "The military career of John Kerry occurred during the Vietnam War. Kerry served as a Lieutenant in the United States Navy during the period from 1966 to 1970. His only tour in Vietnam was four months as officer in charge of a Swift boat in 1969. Kerry received several combat medals during this tour, including the Silver Star, Bronze Star, and three Purple Hearts."
Federal Judges are liars. The whole system is broken and needs to be cleared out from top to bottom.
BS.
Well thats one. 😅👍
The FBI signed off on a warrant containing information it knew was false to obtain a FISA warrant.
Mark Levin just played fifteen minutes or so of rat politicians screeching that pubbies from 2000 to 2016 stole the presidency.
The rule of law is dead. Enjoy FreeRepublic while we can.
I doubt that about Eastman. His neck is on the line too and he seems like a straight shooter.
He’s from freaky CA.

So the judge knows what Trump knows that Trump doesn’t know that the judge knows Trump doesn’t know.
I get it.
Most people in the truther community are saying look for Trump to be indicted. If you read Trump’s letter in response to the Jan 6 committee subpoena it reads more like a warning to me. Like go ahead and do it and see what happens.
