Georgia Opens Criminal Investigation Of Trump For Conspiracy To Commit Voter Fraud

This broke this morning on local cbs Atlanta news and can also be found in the WaPo and the NYT, neither of which I will provide links. You can look them up yourself if you wish. These are the facts, step by step:

The Georgia Secretary of State Brad Ratfricker has officially opened an investigation of Trump for conspiracy to commit voter fraud, stemming from the phone conversation between then President Trump and Georgia SoS Ratfricker, which Ratfricker then leaked to the media.

The results and recommendations of the Georgia SoS will then be delivered to Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr, who will make the decision on whether to file criminal charges for conspiracy to commit voter fraud against Trump.

A little background on the two Georgia Republican officials Ratfricker and Carr, who will determine whether criminal charges are filed against Trump:

Ratfricker is a well known GOPe NeverTrumper. I don’t think I need to spend any time on him.

Carr is your typical two faced political opportunist slimeball. He talks tough but his actions differ from his talk. He straddled the fence repeatedly over the past several months. He began a covert campaign of calling state AGs and rallying them not to join Texas AG Paxton’s lawsuit. When Trump discovered Carr’s actions, he called Carr and excoriated him, to which Carr denied his own actions and swore to Trump that he was on his side. Carr then later came out and voiced strong support for Ratfricker and Kemp and claimed repeatedly that the election was fair, accurate, and free of voter fraud.

Then, later, Carr’s campaign funded and operated calls informing and encouraging people to participate in “Stop The Steal” protests in DC. After the January Capitol riot, Carr’s participation in organizing the event was made known by the media. Carr responded by claiming he had no idea his organization was involved in the event and distanced himself.
