Settlement in Wisconsin 2020 fake elector case offers new details on the strategy by Trump lawyers


MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Two attorneys for then-President Donald Trump orchestrated a plan for fake electors to file paperwork falsely saying the Republican won Wisconsin in a strategy to overturn Joe Biden’s 2020 victory there and in other swing states, according to a lawsuit settlement reached Monday that makes public months of texts and emails.

Under their agreements, Kenneth Chesebro and Jim Troupis turned over more than 1,400 pages of documents, emails and text messages, along with photos and video, offering a detailed account of the scheme’s origins in Wisconsin. The communications show how they, with coordination from Trump campaign officials, replicated the strategy in six other states including Georgia, where Chesebro has already pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the 2020 election.

The agreements settle a civil lawsuit brought by Democrats in 2022 against the two attorneys and 10 Republicans in Wisconsin who posed as fake electors. The Republicans settled in December.

“Our democracy demands better than this,” said Scott Thompson, one of the plaintiffs’ attorneys who helped negotiate the agreements. “That is why this lawsuit … consistently sought transparency, accountability and deterrence. We can’t let this happen again.”

TYT is only going to be watched by people in their own bubble, what I doubt is if independents or independently minded republican voters know about this stuff.

There are always MAGAtt trolls in the TYT YouTube chat. so some of them definitely know about it. Though they will probably think it's "fake news" because the Orange Messiah tells them so.

When they took the 20 million from Clinton backer, Katzenberg, I practically ignored them. It is funny every now and then watching Ana Kasparian have a complete meltdown, shitting all over feckless Democrats (rightly so) then walk it all back the next day. Money does in fact talk.
