8 Trump 'fake electors' have accepted immunity in Georgia election probe, attorney says

Eight of the so-called "fake electors" in Georgia who were allegedly involved in efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election in the state have accepted immunity in the Fulton County probe into the matter, according to their lawyer.

In a court filing in the case on Friday, an attorney who represents 10 of the fake electors said the Fulton County district attorney's office reached out in April to provide an immunity offer for eight of her clients.

"After reviewing the actual, written offers of immunity, each of those eight electors accepted their immunity offer," the filing by the attorney, Kimberly Debrow, said.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is probing former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn his election loss in the state, after Trump was heard in a January 2021 phone call pleading with Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to help him "find 11,780 votes," the exact number he needed to win Georgia.

Not "fake", but 'alternate' electors in the event Trump won the count.

Sheesh.

Has anyone  ever even HEARD of such a thing before as offering immunity to 8 people in order to try to convict ONE person?

And of course,we ALL know that no one would lie in order to avoid facing a stiff prison sentence.

The Left’s 2020 ‘Fake Electors’ Narrative Is Fake News

BY: MARGOT CLEVELAND
MAY 15, 2023

The 2020 Georgia situation mirrors events of 60 years ago in Hawaii, revealing that everything the media have said about ‘fake electors’ is wrong.

Headlines recently proclaimed that eight of Trump’s “fake” electors accepted immunity deals. Of course, in reporting the news, the corporate outlets all missed the real story — that the electors’ testimony failed to incriminate anyone, including Trump, and that the county prosecutors engaged in massive misconduct. Equally appalling, however, was the corrupt media’s continued peddling of the “fake electors” narrative.

There were no “fake” electors. There were contingent Republican electors named consistent with legal precedent to preserve the still ongoing legal challenges to the validity of Georgia’s certified vote.

Nor was appointing an alternative slate of electors some cockamamie plan devised by Trump lawyers. On the contrary, Trump’s election lawyers and the contingent electors followed the precise approach Democrats successfully used when the date Congress established for certifying an election came before the legal challenges John F. Kennedy had brought in Hawaii were decided. And that approach allowed Kennedy to be certified the winner of Hawaii’s three electoral votes on Jan. 6, 1961, even though the Aloha State had originally certified Richard Nixon the victor.

The Hawaii scenario in 1960 mirrors in every material respect the facts on the ground in Georgia on Dec. 14, 2020 — the date both the Democrat and Republican presidential electors met and cast their 16 electoral votes for Joe Biden and Donald Trump respectively.

Sheesh.

Note, the text of the article says, "so called 'fake electors'."  Scorn quotes around the phrase, and a preceding qualifier of "so called", precisely because the author does not accept the Left's characterization, but is stuck with it as common usage due to the Left's media dominance.

Who, precisely, does the Leftmedia dominate?

They don't have the most viewers.
We, on the Right, don't believe much of anything they say--in fact, we'd be inclined to believe the opposite first.

They may dominate the 'true believer' faction in the Leftist bubble, but I honestly do not think that is most of America by any means--at least I pray not.

Remember the Bolsheviks called themselves the "majority party" even though they were not.

Don't let 'em bamboozle you, kid. Just because they are louder and have more channels, doesn't mean they dominate anything outside their bubble.

It's not that the Left media dominate anything, it's that the Left is dominant in media. 

In case you hadn't noticed:  cable TV, broadcast TV, print journalism, both dailies and news weeklies,...  the vast majority of media properties have at least a center-left bias, if not a full on embrace of wokeness (the idiot mass culture version of cultural Marxism).

All of that dying on the vine, and not making a ripple compared to the internet.

If Fulton County wants to open this can of worms, then it would be a simple matter to bring up all the illegalities carried out by Fulton County officials.  There are a lot of folks in Georgia who should be doing serious prison time for all the election laws that were violated. 

If you want to clean up elections, then pursue illegal acts.  Unfortunately, there are those who don't care about working to fix the problem.  They just want some judge to declare Trump the winner.
