Indicted evangelical lawyer Jenna Ellis has established crowdfunding page to help pay for her legal fees. She has already raised over $7000. It appears that Donald Trump’s PAC won’t pay her legal fees because she supports Ron DeSantis.
Lance Wallnau is still invoking the Dinesh D’Souza film “2000 Mules”:
Charlie Kirk is ready to indict:
In a piece at The Federalist, Kirk is calling for the indictment of “the Left.” Here is a taste:
The goal of all these indictments is simple: rig the 2024 election in the court system before a single ballot can even be cast, and criminalize the MAGA political movement Trump has built.
As our founders knew, and as Ben Franklin famously warned, maintaining a republic is not easy. The temptation is always there for tyrants to abuse their powers to nullify elections and make their hold on power permanent. One of the crucial checks on that abuse of power is that when there is overreach, other branches of government can push back. We understand this intuitively at the federal level. A president who grows too ambitious can be checked by Congress or by the courts.
But that is not the only balancing force in the American system. There is another: When politicians are tempted to prosecute their political enemies, for political reasons, they must fear the same thing happening to them.
Right now, the left does not have that fear, because conservatives have sat idle, refusing to act. That must change.
Of the four indictments brought against Trump, three are completely legally unprecedented in nature. Jack Smith’s J6 indictment and the new Fulton County case are both attempts to criminalize previously completely legal efforts to contest disputed elections through the courts and legislative bodies. Alvin Bragg’s case in New York, meanwhile, is a surreal effort to prosecute Trump for “covering up” a federal crime he has never even been charged with.
For the sake of rigging an election and imprisoning its enemies, the left got creative. For the sake of defending our system of government from this outlandish attack, we may have to get creative too. I offer the following examples as a starting point, but by no means an endpoint.
Trump court journalist David Brody doesn’t like the RICO charge. Sorry David, this was more than just “questioning an election”:
Gary Bauer responds by sharing a piece from Breitbart:
Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council vouches for indicted Mark Meadows:
But what about Stacey?:
Albert Mohler here. Seems to agree with Ruth Marcus.
Stay tuned. We may have more in Thursday’s evangelical roundup.
Aah whataboutism. “I’m sure Fani Willis will be staging a raid on Stacey’s home and taking her away in cuffs & shackles! .” It’s so easy to play that game. Why not call for a raid on the Dukes of Hazard family compound? That Georgia crime family is just as pertinent to the Trump indictment as Stacey Abrams or anyone else suspected of corruption in Georgia history.
