Email reveals Trump campaign told fake electors in Georgia to use 'complete secrecy'

[Beachnutt]

(CNN)
The Trump campaign directed a group of Georgia Republicans to meet in secret and obscure their objectives in an email obtained by federal prosecutors as part of their recent investigation into Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the election in several swing states.
The email is part of the intensifying Justice Department investigation focused on the Trump campaign's interactions with so-called alternate Republican electors in states Trump lost and whether a scheme to organize them could be charged as a crime.

4. Unsurprisingly, they all knew what they were doing was illegal from the very beginning.

It's just a question of how many of them are going to get away with it.

9. Anybody have code and section of federal law he's violated this time?

Also curious about his specific state crimes in Georgia.

Hoping the minimum penalty is being welded inside a sewer pipe, but I'll settle for a dungeon without ketchup.
