3,465 11,509 | Trump lashed out after a federal judge wrote that he knowingly pushed false claims of voter fraud while he was fighting his 2020 election loss. Judge Carter ordered John Eastman, a pro-Trump attorney who tried to challenge Biden’s win, to turn over dozens of documents to the committee investigating the Capitol riot. |
Among those 33 documents were emails that “demonstrate an effort by President Trump and his attorneys to press false claims in federal court for the purpose of delaying the January 6 vote,” Carter wrote. Trump signed a verification, under oath, in Dec 2020, which claimed that in Fulton County, Georgia, over 15,000 voters were improperly counted because they were cast by dead people, felons or unregistered voters. The problem for Trump is that is a lie. “The emails show that President Trump knew that the specific numbers of voter fraud were wrong but continued to tout those numbers, both in court and to the public,” the judge wrote. |
