In mid-February, we reported that Fulton County (Georgia) Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney ordered a limited release of excerpts from a special grand jury’s report on former President Donald Trump and his associates’ alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia:

Fast-forward to July. On Friday, Trump’s legal team petitioned both the Fulton County Superior and the state Supreme Court to block the District Attorney from continuing to prosecute the case, and to throw out the rest of the sealed grand jury report.

via The Associated Press:

    ATLANTA (AP) — Lawyers for former President Donald Trump are asking Georgia’s highest court to prevent the district attorney who has been investigating his actions in the wake of the 2020 election from prosecuting him and to throw out a special grand jury report that is part of the inquiry.

    Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has been investigating since early 2021 whether Trump and his allies broke any laws as they tried to overturn his narrow election loss in Georgia to Democrat Joe Biden. She has suggested that she is likely to seek charges in the case from a grand jury next month.

    Trump’s Georgia legal team on Friday filed similar petitions in the Georgia Supreme Court and Fulton County Superior Court naming Willis and Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney, who oversaw the special grand jury, as respondents.

Good grief.  All he has to do is to call Brad Raffensperger and Gabriel Sterling as witnesses, put them under oath, and then ask them about all the laws they broke.  Trump is an idiot.
