PHOENIX — Attorney John Eastman pleaded not guilty in a Phoenix courthouse on Friday to state charges that he schemed to keep former President Donald Trump in power after he lost the 2020 presidential election, according to multiple reports.
Eastman, who advised Trump’s 2020 campaign, appeared briefly before a judge and later told reporters, “I’m confident that with the laws faithfully applied, I will be fully exonerated,” The New York Times reported.
“I had zero communications with the electors in Arizona (and) zero involvement in any of the election litigation in Arizona or legislative hearings,” he said, according to The Associated Press.
He faces conspiracy, fraud and forgery charges.
In April, an Arizona grand jury indicted Eastman and 17 others on charges that they tried to prevent the lawful transfer of power to President Joe Biden in November 2020.
Eastman is accused of spreading false claims of widespread election fraud and encouraging GOP electors to vote for Trump despite Biden’s win. He also pressured the Arizona Legislature and lawmakers in six other states to change the outcome of the election, according to the indictment.
Trump has not been indicted in the case. He is referred to in court documents as an unindicted co-conspirator.

The testimony from the judge in Wisconsin proves damn near everything.
Meaning What re: Judge in WI?
If lying is a felony, arrest and try every trans.
It isn’t law fare; it is a short circuiting around the constitution’s forbidden bill of attainder.
Can Someone please explain coherently?
These aren’t lawsuits.
They’re serious criminal charges that should never have been leveled. The juries that are handing down these indictments are either idiots or hyper partisan activists like Emily Kohr.
There were no “crimes” and the deranged dyke b***h known as “Mayes” is doing this out of her mad lust for revenge and punishment of anyone who opposes her.
There was a judge that did a thorough investigation into all the stuff that went on in Wisconsin. Illegal stuff. Testified on Eastman’s behalf in California, didn’t matter
