Jenna Ellis, a lawyer who represented President Donald J. Trump after his loss in the 2020 election, admitted in a sworn statement released on Wednesday that she had knowingly misrepresented the facts in several of her public claims that widespread voting fraud led to Mr. Trump’s defeat.
The admissions by Ms. Ellis were part of an agreement to accept public censure and settle disciplinary measures brought against her by state bar officials in Colorado, her home state. Last year, the officials opened an investigation of Ms. Ellis after a complaint from the 65 Project, a bipartisan legal watchdog group.
The group accused her of professional misconduct in her efforts to help Mr. Trump promote his claims of voting fraud and undertake “a concerted effort to overturn the legitimate 2020 presidential election results.” An earlier complaint about Ms. Ellis had been filed by a lawyer, Benjamin Woods.
According to the sworn statement on Wednesday, some of Ms. Ellis’s lies about election fraud were made during appearances on Fox News, several of whose top hosts and executives were recently shown to have disparaged Mr. Trump’s fraud claims in private even though they supported them in public. The revelations about these discrepancies have emerged in a series of court filings by Dominion Voting Systems, a voting-machine company that filed a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox for promoting a conspiracy theory about its role in the election results.
Ms. Ellis, part of the so-called elite strike force of lawyers that took to the air and traveled across the country in support of Mr. Trump’s false claims of fraud, is also embroiled in the Justice Department’s investigation of the former president’s sprawling efforts to reverse his loss to Joseph R. Biden Jr. As part of the investigation — which was taken over in November

Sounds more like a plea bargain. She knew the case was cooked against her.
The release of the internal FOX News Corp texts of totally two faced liar Tucker Carlson, and all the others lying to us and full of bullcarp, which were discovered in the dominion case and released to the civil court (defamation) is also eye-opening… With a 2 1/2 your freaking nightmare.

60 Prominent Democrats, many of them lawyers, admitted to Mueller they publicly lied about Russia and Trump!
Many holding public office!
.
Nope she’s full of crap all right
President Brandon had a boat load of top secret classified documents going back to when he was a Senator.
A soviet style show trial one.

“60 Prominent Democrats, many of them lawyers, admitted to Mueller they publicly lied about Russia and Trump!
Many holding public office!”
And Biden ran out and rehired many of them, like Susan Rice!
.
So, you think the 2020 election was the “most secure election in history” too?
.
And tell me, what did John Durham do?
Zero Raids, Zero Pressure, Zero flips
Fraud!

“.....some of Ms. Ellis’s lies about election fraud were made during appearances on Fox News, several of whose top hosts and executives were recently shown to have disparaged Mr. Trump’s fraud claims in private even though they supported them in public.”
wow
Jenna, Jenna, Jenna
Plea deal?
Agree to this or else!
I will say that I do not think Trump’s attorney’s were up to
snuff after the 2020 election. It seemed that nothing that
was observed was targeted for being addressed.
I have seen published exposes on nursing home attendant
families being angry that their family that couldn’t even
recognize them were on record as having voted.
Was any of this checked out?
Forced confession.
To continue a lie the truth must be slain …..
Still think America can vote their way out of the mess?
Yep.
Our government (our rulers) are better at extortion than organized crime could ever be.

It might be instructive to know what “ fact she misrepresented”? Curious we never hear about any actual “evidence” in these kangaroo courts? And if the Ellis chick wasn’t willing to fight maybe she should stay in the kitchen?
Makes me think of this singing in Close encounters of the third kind, Richard Dreyfuss says “you can’t confuse us by agreeing with us” or something like that. Intentional misdirect.
That movie actually had a great “Covid applicable” scene too. When the Army Colonel said something about “What we need is something so scary it will scare the living hell out of every Christian soul in 200 miles”, or something like that.
