Another day, another corrupt act by Democratic Party-aligned government lawyers—this time in Arizona.
Former Trump campaign lawyer Jenna Ellis had all nine felony charges dismissed against her in the Arizona electors case Tuesday, supposedly “in exchange for” her promise to testify, according to the prosecutor’s press release.
There is no exchange here. Prosecutors in Democratic circles are now more concerned with feeding MSNBC’s nightly narrative machine than they are even pretending to care about justice.
This “cooperation agreement,” released gleefully in a Monday press release, fails to do what all cooperation agreements are supposed to do—help prove the case.
The case the Arizona AG is trying to make essentially boils down to: When Republicans in Arizona attempted to file an alternate slate of electors in the 2020 Electoral College, they were committing felony-level “fraudulent schemes” and forgery.
That is a difficult case to make, as Fulton County DA Fani Willis is also learning. //
In a just world, no judge would accept this plea deal. Prosecutors are extorting it out of her by charging her with near-treasonous crimes. //
Leftist lawfare prosecutors have been able to extort some plea deals in some jurisdictions by threatening big crimes and offering tiny punishments to different, tiny crimes. The Georgia and New York cases are both examples of this. Now add Arizona to the list.
It is a sad state of affairs for America. Prosecution has been flipped on its head. In a just world, facts backed by evidence are used to build charging decisions. In today’s deep blue court jurisdictions, charging decisions backed by agendized media are used to build public narratives.
