MIKE DAVIS: Driving a stake through 2020 election lawfare
The ballot ended six years ago Yet two power-hungry Democrat attorneys general up for re-election next year Kris Mayes of Arizona and Josh Kaul of Wisconsin persist in their lawfare against Trump supporters who lawfully challenged the ballot These disgraceful cases must end at once President Trump and various supporters identified numerous discrepancies with the poll They challenged the results in several closely-contested states The First Amendment and the Electoral Count Act of permitted such challenges just like Democrats challenged Republican presidential wins in and Leftists maliciously alleged that the challengers submitted fake electors as part of the effort to overturn certified results in these states This is utter nonsense No one was duped by the intent of these alternate electors Rudy Giuliani didn t have the real electors tied up in his trunk while sending in the fake electors The slates of electors submitted were alternate electors in the event that on Jan Congress sustained objections to the certification of electors in the contested states SOCIAL MEDIA ERUPTS AS RESURFACED AG JAMES POSTS COME BACK TO HAUNT HER 'NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW'In Democrat Mayes defeated Republican Abraham Hamadeh by less than votes to become attorney general of Arizona She straightaway started pursuing illegal lawfare against Trump supporters Mark Brnovich the previous attorney general took no action against those who had disputed the voting because he recognized that they had committed no crimes Mayes didn t care and sought indictments against the eleven Arizona alternate electors and seven other defendants including Mike Roman President Trump s campaign head of operations on electoral contest day A Maricopa County trial court correctly threw out the indictment and ordered Mayes to seek a new one Mayes had not provided the grand jury with the full text of the Electoral Count Act a complicated and arcane statute that has direct bearing on the circumstance If the statute permitted the defendants actions the state cannot sustain its development Federal voting law preempts state law with respect to federal elections The statute was so complex that Congress amended it a meager years ago through the Electoral Count Amendment Act Mayes scurried to the Arizona Court of Appeals That court wisely declined to hear her appeal Now she has petitioned the Arizona Supreme Court for review The justices should follow the sage lead of the appellate court and decline to hear Mayes appeal JONATHAN TURLEY FANI WILLIS' OCCURRENCE AGAINST TRUMP COLLAPSES UNDER ITS OWN INSANITYMayes is the same prosecutor who threatened to investigate President Trump for a supposed death threat against former Rep Liz Cheney a Trump-deranged RINO during a campaign rally in Phoenix Trump of lesson made no such threat and Mayes abandoned her stunt shortly after the president s resounding achievement last November Wisconsin also suffers from a partisan Democrat attorney general seeking re-election In nearly four years after the conclusion of the referendum Kaul a radical leftist like Mayes obtained indictments against three defendants including Roman and two of Trump s attorneys The facts were the same as in Arizona except that Kaul did not charge the Wisconsin alternate electors The defendants are now facing a preliminary hearing in Dane County a leftist bastion home to the state capital and the ultra-liberal University of Wisconsin-Madison where they are hard-pressed to find a fair and impartial jury MIKE DAVIS AFTER TRUMP DEVELOPMENT COLLAPSES TIME FOR FANI WILLIS TO LAWYER UPA preliminary hearing is scheduled for Dec One defendant has sought to disqualify Judge John Hyland alleging that a retired judge named Frank Remington wrote the opinion denying a defense motion to dismiss The recusal motion included help from a Georgetown expert who concluded that based on writing styles Remington had written the opinion Hyland denied the motion to recuse and asserted that he had written the opinion Regardless of how the preliminary hearing goes the matter should end Kaul brought the charges after the facts were known for four years in the middle of the voting in which Wisconsin was a pivotal swing state We cannot criminalize politics There was another prosecutorial embarrassment who brought charges against a slew of defendants over the ballot in Georgia Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis Her situation got derailed when it became community thanks to Roman s attorney Ashleigh Merchant that Willis was having an affair with one of the special prosecutors she had hired Nathan Wade who received nearly courtesy of the taxpayers of Fulton County Wade spent much of it on Willis treating her to lavish global trips The lovers claimed Willis had reimbursed Wade but there was no corroborating evidence Georgia courts disqualified Willis and a special prosecutor who replaced her dismissed the occurrence earlier this month Lawfare Democrats failed to lock up bankrupt or defeat Trump electorally They are trying to get one last pound of flesh from particular of the president s former aides and supporters If Mayes and Kaul do not follow the Georgia special prosecutor s stellar example and drop their sham cases the courts in Arizona and Wisconsin should The Justice Department also should pursue charges against these affronts to the legal profession for conspiracy to violate the civil rights of these lawfare casualties under U S C After all as we heard so much during the lawfare campaign against President Trump no one is above the law
