    Let’s hope this is the case. As of today, Ellis is blaming more senior attorneys for misleading her and Powell is reverting to saying that she still believes the election was stolen. Don’t sound too convincing as strong witnesses. That leaves Chesebro who deployed fake electors. Perhaps his testimony is the one that can make the difference. 🤞

      I’m no lawyer or legal analyst, but them making excuses probably won’t mean much when it comes time to testify. Taking a plea deal requires waiving fifth amendment rights, so there’s no option to not answer a question during cross examination. I think all these theatrics are more trying to save face than anything else, personally. I guess we’ll see what happens when the former guy has to show up.
