OUTRAGEOUS: Pro-Trump Georgia State Senator Who Previously Tried to Impeach Fani Willis Assaulted and Arrested While Trying to Enter Georgia House Chambers (VIDEO)
Gateway Pundit, ^ | Jan. 16, 2025 | Cullen Linebarger

An unjustified assault has happened on a state legislator for simply trying to perform his state constitutional duties.

On Thursday, Georgia Republican State Senator Colton Moore, a huge Trump supporter, was attempting to enter the State of the State session in the House Chambers before suddenly getting roughly forced to the ground by an unknown male. There are reports that the person responsible is a staffer for Georgia Speaker of the House Jon Burns, though this has not been confirmed.

Authorities do absolutely nothing to the individual who unjustly shoves Moore to the ground.

WATCH:

...

Following the initial incident, Moore was arrested and taken into custody by law enforcement. Interestingly, he is being held at Fulton County jail, the same jail as President Trump when he was booked back in August 2023.

...

According to reports, Speaker Burns ordered his arrest. Moore revealed yesterday that Burns previously vowed to arrest him and prevent him from attending the State of the State joint session.

Moore, though, sent a letter defying Burns and said he would attend anyway, calling Burns’ action unconstitutional.

As TGP readers may know, Moore, back in August 2023, moved to impeach disgraced Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. This followed Willis hitting Trump and 18 others with RICO and conspiracy charges for daring to challenge the 2020 election.

A Fulton County grand jury that same month returned a 41-count indictment which included RICO and conspiracy charges against Trump.

But instead of throwing Willis out of office, State Senate Republicans kicked Moore out of their caucus for daring to make this bold move. The Georgia GOP was pleased to risk Trump spending years behind bars.

Sounds like a Civil Rights violation for Kash Patel to investigate and hand over to Pam Bondi.

This is EXACTLY like some Mississippi or Alabama Sheriff arresting someone registering black voters in the 50s.
It is literally the same. A corrupt cop, violating his civil rights because his political camp is disfavored.

To be a contrarian, certainly this was assault by the guy who did the shoving. But. Unpopularly, each house gets to make its own rules. I think it was a stupid hill for the Speaker to die on, but he makes the rules for his body. He went looking for a fight and got it.

DOJ is ours at noon on Monday.

This is nothing but a state government using force to violate the civil rights of an elected official. This is a layup for a 1960s style civil rights investigation and federal prosecution.

It’s no different than a KKK infested city government falsely arresting a campaign worker.
The cops and the man who gave the orders need some J6 treatment and 5am FBI raids.

Apparently Moore criticized a deceased politician, and that’s why he gets arrested when he shows up for work.

Unbelievable.

Necessary details lacking. What did the police charge him with? What was the claimed basis for his ban?

Senator Colton Moore, who exposed and defeated corrupt District Attorney Fani Willis last year, has been arrested by the Anti-Trump Speaker of the Georgia House.

Colton is being held in the same Atlanta jail as President Trump.

We are working to ensure his expedient release.

Please pray for all those standing up for freedom and peace for all Georgians.”

In February 2019, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and WSB-TV reported that Ralston regularly used his position as speaker to benefit his Blue Ridge-based private law practice.[15] A 1905 state law (O.C.G.A. § 17-8-26)[16] requires judges and prosecutors to defer to the schedules of any member of the general assembly who is also a practicing lawyer, and as speaker, Ralston was able to claim scheduling conflicts any time of year. By delaying court cases in this manner, Ralston was able to keep his clients free on bond for months or even years, while weakening court cases over time by letting memories fade and evidence expire. Some of Ralston’s clients retained him specifically for these reasons.[17]

Journalists found that over the course of 21 cases, Ralston requested delays 57 times, and that on 76 of the 93 conflicting days, the legislature was not in session; he would commonly delay individual cases over a dozen times each. Charges against Ralston’s clients who benefited from this include drunk driving, child molestation, and assault.[18]

In April 2019, an independent researcher reviewed Ralston’s court cases across eight counties and found that from 2010 through 2019, Ralston delayed 226 cases a total of 966 times. Multiple attorneys wrote formal complaints to various judges regarding Ralston’s delays. In response, Ralston said that the researcher “does not understand the legal system or the criminal justice system... [and] didn’t have anything critical to say about my performance as speaker.”[19]

The original law allowing this was amended over a century later in 2006 by SB 503. Previously, the law allowed representatives to delay court hearings only during the legislative session and for the following three weeks. A committee was formed to reconcile differences between the house and senate versions of SB 503, and Ralston himself was named a member. His exact role in crafting the current law’s language is unknown.[20]

Little to no pushback from judges has been found. Ralston had been known to seek revenge on political opponents and, as speaker, controlled two seats on the investigative panel of the state judicial qualifications commission. Further, the Georgia legislature made itself exempt from the Georgia Open Records Act.

Liberals around me are talking and acting crazy.

I think I do, but you're free to assume.
