  1. Kenneth #Chesebro, the lawyer behind Trump’s fake elector plot, lost his New York law license after pleading guilty to conspiracy. His immediate disbarment highlights the legal reckoning over the 2020 election lies. www.rawstory.com/ken...

  2. New security footage from the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot have revealed possible new crimes in Donald Trump’s plot to overturn the 2020 election results.

    Former Trump attorney Kenneth #Chesebro and a Trump campaign staffer, G. Michael #Brown, were caught on camera handing fake elector documents from Washington and Michigan to aides of Republican Representative Mike #Kelly of Pennsylvania on January 5.

    The video corroborates what Chesebro admitted in a text message on January 6:
    that he dropped off fake elector documents to Kelly’s aides a day prior.

    The documents ultimately didn’t get to Vice President Mike Pence,
    who was in charge of certifying the election results,
    thanks to the Senate parliamentarian refusing to accept the documents from Kelly’s aides.

    Bizarrely, after the documents were rejected, the aides wandered the halls on the second floor of the Capitol for a half-hour, waiting for instructions.

    It’s bad news for Kelly
    —and even worse news for Chesebro,
    who is already in trouble in Michigan for his involvement in the fake elector scheme in that state.

    Chesebro was charged with felony fraud for his efforts to overturn Wisconsin’s presidential election results in June.

    He was named as a co-conspirator in Georgia’s fake elector charges,
    where he is cooperating with the state and has pleaded guilty to planning the scheme there.

    He is reportedly also cooperating with prosecutors in Michigan and Wisconsin.

    This new set of evidence could lead to new charges,
    as it apparently wasn’t previously uncovered by the House January 6 committee, according to journalist Jamie Dupree.

    And while Kelly’s role was known, the extent of his involvement in the fake electors plot was not.

    Aside from that, however, the footage shows how close Trump’s cronies got to overturning two key states’ elections,
    as only the Senate parliamentarian and Vice President Mike Pence stood in their way.

  5. Kenneth #Chesebro got smacked with a ♦️felony fraud charge ♦️by #Wisconsin prosecutors on Tuesday.
    Largely considered🔸 the architect of the fake electors plot to flip the 2020 election to Trump, 🔸
    Chesebro was charged alongside
    Michael #Roman, 🔸head of Trump’s 2020 Election Day operations, 🔸
    and fellow Trump lawyer
    James #Troupis.

    All were charged with one count of #forgery in the case brought by Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Paul, according to court records.
    The statute listed for the Trump trio’s charges,
    💥“forgery-uttering,” 💥is a Class H felony in Wisconsin,
    essentially defined as touting bogus official statements or fake legal documents or public records as true while knowing they’re fraudulent.

    Chesebro, as part of the fake elector scheme,
    attempted to send fake certified elector documents
    —which falsely claimed Wisconsin and Michigan electors chose Trump
    —to Washington, D.C., ahead of 2020’s presidential electoral certification process.

    The plot was spoiled when the documents infamously got stuck in the mail,
    leading to a last-minute scramble by the schemers to get the phony paperwork into the hands of then–Vice President Mike Pence
    in time to certify election results on January 6, 2021.
    Chesebro is also named as a
    co-conspirator in Georgia’s fake elector charges,
    where he is cooperating with the state and has pleaded guilty to planning the goofily villainous scheme.
    Chesebro is reportedly also cooperating with prosecutors in Michigan and Wisconsin.
    Tuesday’s charges are a first for Troupis and Roman, who join the vaunted ranks of at least a dozen other Trump lawyers and toadies who conspired to submit fake electors to certify the 2020 election for Trump.
    Troupis and Chesebro are also being sued by Biden electors in Wisconsin for the plot,
    where 10 other Republican electors settled a lawsuit in December 2023 forcing them to admit Biden won the 2020 election.

  16. @w7voa is this perjury?

    “In addition to concealing his secret Twitter account, Chesebro told investigators that he didn’t use social media applications to send and receive private messages.

    “That denial is undercut by the materials X gave to investigators, which contain more than 160 sent messages and more than 25 received messages between 2014 and 2021, with most of them amid the 2020 election fallout.”

  26. I write a lot about the reality that fascism itself, is a legalist, top-down political formulation that is very much about seizing control of the law, and then using that to install and maintain a fascist order. This runs entirely contrary to popular conceptions of fascism, which often portray the rise of a fascist movement or dictatorship, as a sort of "popular madness," where a majority of people support a fascist doctrine because of ignorance, or being deceived into doing so; or worse, the result of a "chud rush" where a bunch of "guys with guns" physically seize the halls of power and declare "it's fascism now." The reality that actually the best weapons to subvert democratic will that a fascist order has at its disposal are judges, lawyers and lawmakers, not an army of street nazis, was true in pre-war Germany, and it's true today.

    Finally, it would appear that some folks are starting to notice:

    talkingpointsmemo.com/feature/

    A lot of this article by Josh Kovensky, over at Talking Points Memo (a Dem-aligned blog run by Josh Marshall) is about the particulars of Trump's Jan 6th, 2021 attempted autogolpe and how it was planned. It's a worthwhile read, but I'd just like to highlight the section that demonstrates exactly what I'm talking about in terms of the legalist nature of a fascist takeover, and how that sort of thing actually happens in reality, rather than popular imagination:

    "The trove provides a definitive account of how a small group of attorneys, dedicated to Trump, designed and tried to implement the portion of the coup attempt which unfolded via legal arguments. They burnished the former president’s efforts with a veneer of respectability that at times masked their radicalism: This portion of the effort to reverse Trump’s loss did not proceed via loud claims of voter fraud or through Sidney Powell’s promise of a “Kraken” lawsuit that would wipe her enemies away, nor did it move forward through the actions of mobs and street thugs primed to seize the Capitol on Jan. 6.

    Rather, the attorneys involved all had extensive experience in the practice of law. Chesebro is a Harvard Law graduate who spent much of his early career working on appellate cases with liberal commentator and Harvard Law professor Larry Tribe. John Eastman was a longtime conservative movement attorney who had been dean of Chapman University Law School. Others, like Pennsylvania attorney Bruce Marks, had built careers out of an extensive civil practice."

    And I mean, yeah, yeah "not all lawyers" but that isn't the point here. The point is that when fascism comes to your door, it's going to be there because a bunch of guys with law degrees have twisted the rules to make fascism not only legal, but the only law of the land. That's how it always works. That's why Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. himself said "we should never forget that everything Adolph Hitler did in Germany was "legal"... What you saw on January 6th, was merely the public facing of a plot to abuse the law, for the purposes of overturning an election; and it's a pretty good preview of just how Trump, his cronies, and the folks behind Project 2025, mean to bring overt fascist rule to America after this next election.

    hiding dozens of #damning posts that undercut his statements to investigators about his role in the election subversion scheme, a CNN KFile investigation has found.

    Chesebro denied using Twitter, now known as the platform X, or having any “alternate IDs” when directly asked by Michigan investigators last year during his cooperation session, according to recordings of his interview obtained by CNN.

    But CNN linked Chesebro to the secret account based on numerous matching details — including biographical information regarding his work, family, travels and investments.
    The anonymous account, #BadgerPundit, also showed a keen interest in the Electoral College process and lined up with Chesebro’s private activities at the time.

    The Twitter posts reveal that even before the 2020 election, and then just two days after polls closed, Chesebro promoted a far more aggressive election subversion strategy than he later let on in his Michigan interview.

  38. The full #Insurrection #plan never came to fruition, in large part because the conspirators didn't get enough buy-in from then-Vice President Mike Pence and other key Republican leaders.

    But the newly revealed #Chesebro #documents are a chilling reminder that the violence of the Capitol insurrection was just a small part of what was a vast, sweeping #conspiracy to steal the 2020 election from President Joe Biden and the voters who elected him.

    This matters, because "January 6" has become a shorthand for an attempted #coup that, in actuality, lasted for two months and across multiple states.

    There's a real danger that the #violence on January 6 is eclipsing the public's understanding of all the events — and crimes — that led up to QAnon idiots storming the Capitol.
