There is no legitimate prosecutorial reason for Fani Willis to have struck these particular plea deals. They’re a means to an end.In the past week, the office of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis finalized “plea agreements” with three significant members of the group of 18 co-defendants indicted in Willis’ rambling Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (“RICO”) case filed this past August against former President Donald Trump and others. The pleas were with three prominent lawyers in the post-2020 election challenges: Sidney Powell, Kenneth Chesebro, and Jenna Ellis. Each was charged with multiple felonies, including the lead RICO count, carrying...

The image most of us had of former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis was a remarkably cheerful mugshot after her arrest in the RICO case brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. But Ellis made a very different appearance today in state court pleaded guilty to intentionally interfering in the election process in the state of Georgia. While the impact of earlier pleas by figures like Sidney Powell is hard to judge at this stage, this plea has more ominous implications for the former president.Ellis offered a sobbing apology for her role in challenging the 2020 election and stated that“as...

Mark Meadows' latest court flop increases the pressure facing the co-defendants charged alongside Donald Trump in the Georgia election interference case to flip on the former President and cooperate with the prosecution, one former federal prosecutor told Insider. In a Friday ruling, US District Court Judge Steve Jones denied Meadows' bid to move the prosecution against him to federal court. In his ruling, Jones argued that when Meadows urged Georgia's secretary of state to "find" enough votes to declare Trump the winner of the state in the 2020 election, his behavior fell outside the scope of his official duties of...

Wednesday on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle,” Trump co-defendant John Eastman argued efforts to focus on alleged wrongdoing during the 2020 election were justified. Eastman told host Laura Ingraham those aligned with former President Donald Trump had to fight back or face the possibility of never having a “fair election” again. “The answer is not to just, you know, take a powder and concede because then it will get worse on the next go around,” he said. “The answer is to fight it with everything we’ve got because what’s at stake here is too important. People keep asking me, why don’t...

Testimony this week in federal court by Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger reportedly contradicted claims that former President Donald Trump insisted he violate his oath of office by fabricating enough votes to win the state. As Breitbart News has long noted, the media have misrepresented the January 2021 phone call between Trump and Raffensperger, quoting Trump as telling Raffensperger that he should “find” the votes necessary for him to win. In fact, Trump said “I just want to find” the votes, referring to his own state of mind. Moreover, the context was that Trump believed he actually had won...

In court papers filed in federal court for the Northern District of Georgia on Tuesday, Mark Meadows asked a judge for an immediate ruling on his effort to move his Fulton County case to federal court or an order that would prevent Fulton County's district attorney from arresting him. “Granting removal immediately and notifying the state court is the most efficient way to effectuate relief,” they wrote. “Alternatively, the Court can effectuate relief by issuing an order to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis — who is a party to the matter before the Court—prohibiting her from arresting or causing...

ATLANTA — The purported names and addresses of members of the grand jury that indicted Donald Trump and 18 of his co-defendants on state racketeering charges this week have been posted on a fringe website that often features violent rhetoric, NBC News has learned. NBC News is choosing not to name the website featuring the addresses to avoid further spreading the information. The Fulton County District Attorney’s Office declined to comment. District Attorney Fani Willis faced racist threats ahead of the return of the indictment, and additional security measures were put in place, with some employees being allowed to work...

To get a handle on the indictment and stay current with the various developments, it is helpful to put the charges into one of six buckets.Late Monday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis charged former President Donald Trump and 18 other defendants in a 98-page indictment that included a total of 41 different counts. The defendants are already fighting back, with Trump’s former chief of staff, Mark Meadows, seeking to remove the case to federal court based on a statute that protects federal officials from state court prosecution for official conduct. More counteroffensives will likely follow, with other former federal...

Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said Monday that District Attorney Fani Willis had indicted former President Donald Trump and 18 others for a “conspiracy” that was exactly what Democrats did in challenging the 2000 election. The tactics of the Trump team, including claims of fraud, were neither more nor less than what Democrats had done in claiming that the election had been stolen from then-Vice President Al Gore by Republicans pushing for then-Governor George W. Bush. Fox News reported: Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz, speaking to Fox News Digital, criticized the pending indictment, calling Trump’s actions “very similar” to...

The official court website of Fulton County, Georgia, published an indictment against former President Donald Trump on Monday before deleting it, a bizarre, unexplained act that at least one critic says violated Trump’s constitutional rights to due process of law. Reuters first reported that the indictment had been filed, then had to update its report when the indictment was removed from the court website and the office of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis denied that an indictment had yet been issued. Yet Reuters preserved the initial document, which lists 39 charges against Trump, including the “serious felony” of racketeering....
