Trump Drafted Two Handwritten Notes in Effort to Overturn Election Results
Source: Newsweek via MSN
New court documents have revealed that former President Donald Trump had a direct role in the legal strategy used by his team in their efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.
A Thursday brief filed by John Eastman's attorneys in a lawsuit against the House committee investigating the January 6 Capitol attack argued that Eastmana Trump attorney who implored Vice President Mike Pence to block the congressional certification of states' electoral voteshas attorney-client privilege covering more than 100 documents because he worked on Trump's legal team.
While most of the documents were email communications or digital attachments, "two include hand-written notes from former President Trump about information that he thought might be useful for the anticipated litigation," according to the brief. Eastman said he also spoke with Trump on the phone during the legal challenges.
The late-night court filing is the latest development in Eastman's efforts to block the House panel's access to a trove of communications pertaining to its investigation. The filing comes just weeks after Eastman withdrew privilege claims over a third of the documents amid pressure from U.S. District Court Judge David Carter.

If it's the latter, trump's in serious trouble.
If it's the former, it's sounds quite similar to the 7 Democratic Representatives who challenged the Electoral Vote for trump on Jan 6, 2017, forcing then VP Biden to shut them down? Don't think we will get very far if that is the case.
