Trump Threatens 'harsh Measures' If Tina Peters Not Freed

Thursday, August 21, 2025

President Trump on Thursday re-upped his call for Colorado to free Tina Peters, a state election official who was convicted of multiple felonies after breaching voting equipment in the 2020 election, warning he would take "harsh measures" if she is not released.

When Trump doesn't get his way, everything is on the table. His vague threats of "harsh" could be anything from cutting federal funding for pet projects in Colorado to a smut campaign to viciously destroy somebody's life and career. (Trump's favorite)

Revenge is never far from Trump's mind, like an undisciplined 2-year old who has never been taught that "no" means "no."

More lawfare from a lawless administration.

Hey MAGA morons, when will you realize you support the antithesis of what you claimed to believe my entire adult life? Or was that all bulls*&^?

Nine years for exposing voter fraud in Colorado is pretty harsh, but then Diebold or whatever it's called now insisted. Easy hacking, vote switching, and miscounting were proprietary features not bugs.

It was all BS. 'Law and order' was just a cudgel to beat hippies and Black people up with.

No one is above the law!

Colorado also went to Kamala, so I'm sure that's part of it.

If that's the case, capitulation will only delay the inevitable, and Trump will retaliate again later.

He'll send in troops and cut off funding anywhere he can, which is about all he can really do. And flap is loud two-faced mouth.

With that in mind, Colorado pays more in Federal taxes than they receive; A common attribute of blue states but very few red states. Most red states are parasites who let their citizens scrape by on the government dole while the rich get richer.

Any evidence? Did Peters even offer any evidence? No? Good enough for me!

I'm gonna go rob a bank because I believe it's involved in fraud.

I'm pretty sure Tina's Peter did not conjure up those 20 million votes that never appeared again either before or after the rigger's field day.
She is just being gangraped by leftists. Go after that cork sucker leftist that plugged in the USB drive DURING the election. Go after the gay leftists that locked out the official observers and blocked the windows and the ones who faked the water leak then circled back to cheat some more. Go after that partisan gap in cobb county who shredded the evidence on the eve of the investigation.

The actual conspiracy theory is the official story, like always.

Daddysfist, your child-raping hero admitted Leon stole the election for him.

"She is just being gangraped by leftists."

Always. A. Victim.

More lies and obfuscations, same sleazy source.

AI Overview

While election fraud does occasionally occur in US elections, extensive research and studies have consistently shown it is not widespread and rarely affects election outcomes.
Here's what the evidence suggests:

Impact is minimal:
Even when instances of fraud are found, they are typically isolated incidents and do not affect the election's final results.

For example, an investigation found fewer than 475 potential instances of fraud in the 2020 election out of more than 25 million votes cast in battleground states

See a common connection?

This is a nod to corrupt MAGA election officials that there won't consequences for tampering with election results in their favor.

Used to be presidents actually worked at the job.
This pathetic creature can't shake TV, internet posting, and an incurable need for attention.
The US will not recover from this, the vaunted "guardrails" having failed to live up to advance billing.

As Mattis and Kelly said, Trump is fascist to his core, and that means he has no regard for the rule of law, for the Constitutional protections regarding freedom of speech and of assembly. Should make the midterms and then the 2028 elections terrifying, if fascinating.
We are turning into Russia right before our eyes and ears...a land run by an authoritarian with the courts as his puppets and the media either sucking up to him, or in jail.
