EXCLUSIVE: Fani Willis Possesses Evidence Exonerating Georgia’s Alternate Electors
The Federalist ^ | SEPTEMBER 01, 2023 | SHAWN FLEETWOOD

Posted on 09/01/2023 8:26:54 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis possesses evidence that exonerates several Republicans she’s targeting in her legal crusade against former President Donald Trump and other Republicans for their lawful contesting of Georgia’s flawed 2020 election.

In her Aug. 14 indictment, Willis alleged the existence of Republican electors for Trump constituted an unlawful “conspiracy” to overturn the Peach State’s 2020 election results. Among those charged for partaking in this so-called “conspiracy” are David Shafer, one of Georgia’s 2020 Republican electors, and Ray Smith, who served as one of Trump’s lawyers at the time of the contest.

Specifically, Willis claimed Shafer and the other alternate electors “unlawfully falsely held themselves out” as Georgia’s “duly elected and qualified” presidential electors. She further insisted these electors — with Smith’s assistance — intentionally attempted to “mislead” figures such as then-Vice President Mike Pence and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger “into believing that they actually were such officers.”

However, among the documents Willis obtained during her years-long investigation of Republicans was a meeting transcript refuting her allegations.

A transcript of the Georgia Republican electors’ Dec. 14, 2020, meeting, obtained by The Federalist, explicitly shows the intent behind casting alternate electors was not to impersonate public officers, as Willis alleged, but to lawfully preserve Trump’s legal challenge to the state’s election results. At the meeting’s outset, Shafer specifically noted how he and his fellow Republicans were acting as “Republican nominees for Presidential Elector,” not as “duly elected and qualified” presidential electors.

“[President Trump] has filed a contest to the certified returns. That contest — is pending [and has] not been decided or even heard by any judge with the authority to hear it,” Shafer said. “And so in order to preserve his rights, it’s important that the Republican nominees for Presidential Elector meet here today and...”

Will evidence exonerating these people matter to her? The goal is to destroy Trump and his allies at all cost.

We don’t have a justice system.
We don’t have elections.

Don’t worry the Judge will overlook this deliberate fraud upon the court and blatant deprivation of rights under the color of law by the Black Panther prosecutor.

the entire basis for the charges and the nature of the complaint don’t make a bit of sense and never did.
If such a legal action has never been taken in the entire history of our nation.
This is why when you hear people like bill Barr or that idiot creep governor of Georgia pretending that this is just business as usual, you know that real evil is afoot.
Dave Dunn things like arrest the lawyers who merely represented Trump on his election challenge period this is really frightening and outrageous and a direct assault against our Freedoms.

The same facts asserted in this Georgia case are applicable to those charged for a similar offense in Michigan.

People forget (or never knew) that Hawaii sent two sets of electors to DC in the 1960 race, which was undecided when they left Hawaii for DC.

Recall what Obama hack advisor Jonathon Gruber said:

"And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical for the thing to pass.”

Democrats thrive where stupidity lives.

She is just following the example of the FBI and DOJ excluding exculpatory information.

Just how things work now.

This makes no difference.The verdict will be “guilty” on all counts. Then it’s on to the appeals courts.

She spent 16 years as a prosecutor in the Fulton County district attorney’s office. Her most prominent case was her prosecution of the Atlanta Public Schools cheating scandal. Willis, an assistant district attorney at the time, served as lead prosecutor in the 2014 to 2015 trial of twelve educators accused of correcting answers entered by students to inflate the scores of state administered standardized tests. Eleven of the twelve were convicted of racketeering under Georgia’s RICO statute in April 2015.

Willis was born in Inglewood, California. Her father was a member of the Black Panthers and a criminal defense attorney.

Amen......

Nifong was disbarred and even went to jail for
inventing crimes via the fraudulent Lacrosse rape case.......

One of his more notorious moves was to withhold exculpatory evidence.
