Michigan: “Fake Electors” case thrown out

A Michigan judge has dismissed the case against 15 individuals accused of being "fake electors" for Donald Trump in the 2020 election. Judge Kristen Simmons on Tuesday said she found insufficient evidence to prove the defendants acted with criminal intent. "This is a fraud case, and we have to prove intent, and I don't believe that there's sufficient evidence to prove intent," she said during a hearing Tuesday.

Thrown out because these MAGAts were just too goddamn dumb to know what they were doing?
So, being an ignoramus is now a legitimate explanation to explain away for illegal behavior?
Gotta make critical adjustments to permit MAGAt behaviors.
Sorry bunch of sad sack, whiney fookahs.

#3 Well that is what Mueller determined when Stinky Jr met with Russian spies to get campaign dirt on Hilary. He said they were too stupid to know they were breaking the law.

This is why the appeal process exists. I think the judge took the blindfold off Lady Justice. Hopefully the prosecution will appeal.

The judge literally claimed this was NOT an election interference case.

Corruption squared.

These folks signed a form under penalty of perjury THEY WERE the legitimate electors, when they knew they weren't.

Their sole "proof" was they lost the election. That's it.
