January 6 Committee Struggles to Dig Up Dirt On Trump
In their never ending search to at least discredit or otherwise shut up Donald Trump, no stone will be left alone.
His ex-attorney, John Eastman, was forced to turn over 101 emails to the January 6 committee after being unable to prove attorney-client privilege.
Democrats have been screaming Trump was behind that attack and they’re determined to find evidence of intent to overturn the 2020 election.
Supposedly the emails talk of ways to keep Congress from certifying the election and, among other things, weaponizing the court. Judge David Carter wrote:
“This may have been the first time members of President Trump’s team transformed a legal interpretation of the Electoral Count Act into a day-by-day plan of action. In another email thread, Dr. Eastman’s colleagues discuss whether to publish a piece supporting his plan, and they touch on state lawsuits only to criticize how they are being handled by the Trump campaign. In a different email thread, Dr. Eastman and a colleague consider how to use a state court ruling to justify Vice President Pence enacting the plan. In another email, a colleague focuses on the ‘plan of action’ after the January 6 attacks.”
Carter is accusing Trump of trying to usurp the democratic process. He called it “a campaign to overturn a democratic election, an action unprecedented in American history.”
Eastman tried to help Trump with a strategy to pressure Vice President Mike Pence into not certifying the results of the 2020 election. He refused to turn over documents, saying it was attorney-client privilege.
The committee pressed forward
Carter said only ten documents qualified as attorney-client privilege so the rest needed to be turned over. Carter asserted, “Based on the evidence, the Court finds it more likely than not that President Trump corruptly attempted to obstruct the Joint Session of Congress on January 6, 2021.”
The Democrats want to build a criminal case. Carter continued to proclaim Trump must be found guilty.
