Is This How We Get Tina Peters Out Of Colorado State Prison?
Yesterday, we brought you the big news that Tina Peters had been issued a full pardon from President Trump.
In case you missed it, that report here:
BREAKING: President Trump Pardons Election Fraud Whistleblower Tina Peters
But now come the big questions....
The Pardon is on the federal level only and does not apply to State charges.
The problem is Tina Peters is in a State Prison on State Charges/Conviction.
So...why would President Trump bother to issue the Pardon if it's not effective?
Is there an actual path forward to get Tina out of Prison?
Is there more going on here behind the scenes?
I think so and I want to show you a few theories.
From my friend MJ:
A Few days ago, President Trump said the 2020 election IS NOT OVER.
He said it’s alllll going to come out over the next few months “Loud and Clear”, because “we have all the information”.
Today, he Pardoned Tin Peters ?
He knew it was coming….https://t.co/2CEhSXh4lw https://t.co/0aQiI1LPDV pic.twitter.com/Xaz5hrsUnF

And here:
DEEP-STATE PANIC
This is actually pretty freaking significant…
Tina Peters charges were state, not Federal… so how can President Trump Pardon her? The U.S. Constitution grants the president pardon power only for federal offenses, not state crimes
If Peters' case is… https://t.co/tEKAdp6P9O pic.twitter.com/sXTaAPprhl

DEEP-STATE PANIC
This is actually pretty freaking significant…
Tina Peters charges were state, not Federal… so how can President Trump Pardon her? The U.S. Constitution grants the president pardon power only for federal offenses, not state crimes
If Peters' case is escalated to say… federal jurisdiction, possibly through a grand jury probe into election fraud.
Again… What happened a few days ago?
Several Days ago, Attorney Peter Ticktin, representing Tina Peters, sent President Trump an urgent letter stating Tina Peters is a CRITICAL WITNESS against Dominion and its employees, who operated an ILLEGAL OPERATION, supported and controlled by foreign actors, to STEAL the 2020 Election.
If she has become a federal witness in a federal case — the U.S. Marshalls could assume custody.
But as you know, we don't write entire articles just based on a post on X, even if I do like MJ and know that he does excellent work.
So that's where I want to advance the discussion right now.
First, I went to Grok to Fact-Check whether the theory posted above could hold water.
Here's what it told me:
U.S. Marshals can take custody of material witnesses under 18 U.S.C. § 3144 if their testimony is "essential" and flight risk exists, often via federal protective custody. But Peters isn't designated as such—no grand jury or indictment names her as a witness. Prior federal efforts (e.g., DOJ's November transfer request) failed, and her habeas corpus bid was denied December 8.
X posts amplify this speculation (e.g., linking to "national emergency" executive orders), but it's unsubstantiated hype.
Also:
Ticktin's December 7 letter (9 pages) does call Peters a "critical material witness" with the "only surviving forensic copy" of Colorado's 2020 Dominion data, alleging a conspiracy involving Dominion, Venezuelan actors, Sec. Griswold (for a "Trusted Build" software update that allegedly deleted evidence), and foreign control to "steal the presidency." It demands an immediate pardon for her to testify.
However, these echo long-debunked 2020 conspiracy theories: Multiple audits, hand recounts, and 60+ court cases found no widespread fraud; Dominion won defamation suits against proponents (e.g., Fox News settled for $787M). Peters' "evidence" from the 2021 breach produced no proof of fraud, leading to her conviction by a Republican-led prosecution in a Republican county. No federal probe has validated these claims.
Ok so maybe there's something there, but honestly it's a bit of a longshot.
So what else can be done?
That's what I wanted. to investigate next...
So I went to Grok again and asked it to give me any/all legally-sound avenues for the Trump Administration getting Tina Peters out of prison.
And here's what we got:
From first principles, let's reason step-by-step without assuming outcomes or conspiracies.
Start with core legal realities:
(1) Federal power is limited by the Constitution (e.g., no direct override of state criminal judgments per the 10th Amendment and federalism);
(2) Executive authority (e.g., pardons, DOJ investigations) must respect due process and separation of powers;
(3) Success requires evidence-based actions to avoid court reversals or political backlash.
The goal: Secure Peters' release from Colorado's custody (where she's held at a women's prison in Pueblo) while upholding legality.
Step 1: Acknowledge Barriers.
Peters' 9-year sentence (effective October 2024) is purely state-level, upheld by a Mesa County jury and judge.
Trump's pardon (December 11, 2025) is ineffective here—it's like forgiving a debt you don't own.
Direct federal seizure would violate the Anti-Commandeering Doctrine (Printz v. United States, 1997).
Colorado's rejection of prior transfer requests reinforces state sovereignty.
Step 2: Identify Legal Levers.
Build from constitutional tools: Executive (DOJ enforcement), judicial (habeas or appeals), and political (pressure).
Prioritize paths with precedent.
Step 3: Plausible Strategies, Ranked by Feasibility (High to Low).
High Feasibility: Exhaust State Appeals + Political Pressure (Non-Legal Extraction).
Support Peters' ongoing appeal in the Colorado Court of Appeals (filed post-conviction). If successful, her sentence could be vacated without federal involvement.
Simultaneously, amplify public/DOJ pressure: Trump's August 2025 threats of "harsh measures" and the December 10 DOJ prison probe (citing civil rights violations like threats to Peters) could indirectly force better conditions or a state commutation.
Gov. Polis (a moderate Democrat) has resisted but might negotiate if tied to bipartisan issues (e.g., prison reform).
Why legal? Appeals are her right; pressure is protected speech.
Timeline: 6-18 months.
Success odds: Medium (her habeas was denied December 8, but new evidence could sway).
Medium Feasibility: Designate as Federal Witness and Seek Custody Transfer.
Launch a legitimate federal probe into 2020 election security (e.g., via grand jury under 52 U.S.C. § 10307 for voting rights violations).
If Peters' data is deemed "material" (per Ticktin's claims), subpoena her as a witness and request transfer under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (habeas for federal custody).
U.S. Marshals could then hold her in protective custody during testimony.
The pardon would shield her from any resulting federal charges.
Why legal? Witness protection is routine (e.g., in mob cases); no fraud evidence needed upfront—just probable cause for the probe.
Precedent: DOJ has transferred state inmates for federal trials (e.g., in RICO cases).
Timeline: 3-12 months (probe initiation).
Success odds: Medium-low (requires credible predicate; past Dominion probes fizzled).
Low Feasibility: Federalize the Underlying Crime.
Indict co-conspirators (e.g., if evidence emerges of interstate fraud involving Dominion) under federal election laws (18 U.S.C. § 245).
Argue Peters' actions were federally protected whistleblowing, seeking removal to federal court via 28 U.S.C. § 1442 (federal officer defense).
If granted, pardon applies, and release follows.
Why legal? Removal jurisdiction exists for federal questions.
Timeline: 6-24 months.
Success odds: Low (her conviction was for state tampering, not federal fraud; courts demand strong evidence).
Unlikely/Illegal Paths to Avoid:
Direct executive order overriding state custody (violates federalism);
fabricating charges to "rescue" her (abuse of power, impeachable).
These fail first principles of rule of law.
So honestly folks?
There are some options but all of them feel "long shot" to me.
Let's hope President Trump truly has a rabbit up his sleeve, because I'm not seeing great options available to us right now without a miracle.
