Washington CNN Special counsel Jack Smith is still pursuing his investigation into efforts to overturn the 2020 election a month after indicting Donald Trump for orchestrating a broad conspiracy to remain in power, a widening of the probe that raises the possibility others could still face legal peril.
Questions asked of two recent witnesses indicate Smith is focusing on how money raised off baseless claims of voter fraud was used to fund attempts to breach voting equipment in several states won by Joe Biden, according to multiple sources familiar with the ongoing investigation. In both interviews, prosecutors have focused their questions on the role of former Trump lawyer Sidney Powell.
According to invoices obtained by CNN, Powells non-profit, Defending the Republic, hired forensics firms that ultimately accessed voting equipment in four swing states won by Biden: Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Arizona.
Powell faces criminal charges in Georgia after she was indicted last month by Atlanta-area district attorney Fani Willis, who alleges that Powell helped coordinate and fund a multi-state plot to illegally access voting systems after the 2020 election.

So Trump and company were using fraud (that Trump was the real winner meme) to raise money from the rubes
and they then used that money to illegally break into voting machines so they could find evidence of a rigged
election?
In the words of the great Fani Willis, "Jack Smith don't come to play." see Radovan Karadić.

(7,839 posts)for willingness to do,this level of crime without remorse.
A lawyer without evidence is like a fish without gills
drowning is inevitable
only on social media can you still swim in the murk
similar to Biden evidence free screaming
before social media would have required 48 hour detention for psych exam
now ot all passes for news.

(7,839 posts)Amounting to nothing more than feed for the big lie that must not die.
To me courts are where lies come to die
all of these election lies died quickly there
the funerals for the lawyers who didnt understand that, is coming
eternal faith and vigilance for and in the rule of law should be a democratic citizens solemn duty.
And dont forget about the evidence free Italian servers, the convoluted election mathematics by not experts
the attempt to manufacture evidence by harassing election workers
the psychosis is combined with the sugar of grandiose fame.
Trump knows psychosis well.. and how to recognize and manipulate the sick
it really is a talent.

(77,863 posts).... had hired from Porter Wright quit because they wanted to keep their law licenses because
Team Trump wanted them to suborn perjury. And this is all part of the biggest crime in America's
history and it started when Putin/Russia targeted Trump all those years ago, up to his 2013 pee pee
show tapes, Russia/Trump/GOP rat fucking the 2016 elections, to the grift and law breaking in the
White House, and then in the end Team Trump had to scramble to stay in power to avoid all the
criminal and civil penalties they knew were coming their way.
Fun fact the real # of dead from C-19 world wide is 14 million and Donald J Trump is more than
responsible for a large % of those deaths. The mother fucker had to pull us out of the global
pandemic task force, ship our PPE to China (see pee pee tapes aka Steele dossier Trump and
Kush-turd owed lots of money to China) and get rid of the epidemiologist from the C.D.C. who
was on the ground in Wuhan, China prior to the outbreak of the C-19 virus.
I hope Jack Smith is all over this shit. And you can see the architecture of Fani "I don't come to play"
Willis' "Rico Roll Up" in Georgia too.

(77,863 posts).... longer after that TFG and Kush-Turd invested into their own C-19 test kits instead of the German one
that the W.H.O was behind and hydroxycholoroquine and neither of those things worked. Jared had
federal officials take the PPE for local and state personal and then he sold it to the highest bid or some
connected mother fucker.

(12,786 posts)The GOP complaining about vote rigging when they were vote rigging. The GOP has been vote rigging since W was selected for president by the Supremes. And if you add negotiating with terrorists and war enemies to get into office, you can add Raygun and Nixon to that list
I guess the GOP has just gotten really bad at vote rigging. I think they are just so use to winning by fraud, they got sloppy. They didn't use Mike Connell like when Rove rigged Ohio. Oh wait, they couldn't use him, he died in a suspicious plane crash.
