Ex-Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis has just flipped on him by accepting a plea deal in the Arizona ‘Fake Electors’ case. In exchange for charges being dropped against her, she has agreed to fully cooperate with the prosecutors. In the past, Ellis worked together with Rudy Giuliani. She had been charged with fraud, forgery and conspiracy as part of the Arizona case and had plead not guilty. The ‘Fake Electors’ case alleges that eleven Republicans falsely signed a document, calling themselves the real electors and saying Trump won Arizona in the 2020 election (which, he did, but I digress.) Take a look for yourself: JUST IN: Arizona AG announces that Jenna Ellis has agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in the fake electors criminal case. pic.twitter.com/HdJDDOVjDN — Kyle Cheney (@kyledcheney) August 5, 2024 AP reported: Former President Donald Trump’s campaign attorney Jenna Ellis, who worked closely with his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, will cooperate with Arizona prosecutors in exchange for charges being dropped against her in a fake electors case, the state attorney general’s office announced Monday. Ellis has previously pleaded not guilty to fraud, forgery and conspiracy charges in the Arizona case. Seventeen other people charged in the case have pleaded not guilty to the felony charges — including Giuliani, Trump presidential chief of staff Mark Meadows and 11 Republicans who submitted a document to Congress falsely declaring Trump had won Arizona. “Her insights are invaluable and will greatly aid the State in proving its case in court,” Attorney General Kris Mayes said in a statement. “As I stated when the initial charges were announced, I will not allow American democracy to be undermined — it is far too important. Today’s announcement is a win for the rule of law.” Eleven people who had been nominated to be Arizona’s Republican electors had met in Phoenix on Dec. 14, 2020, to sign a certificate saying they were “duly elected and qualified” electors and claimed Trump had carried the state in the 2020 election. President Joe Biden won Arizona by 10,457 votes. Newsweek added: Donald Trump’s supporters are publicly tearing into Jenna Ellis, after it was announced that the former Trump campaign lawyer had taken a plea deal in the Arizona “fake electors” case. The agreement, which will see Ellis cooperate with prosecutors in exchange for the charges against her being dropped, was announced by the Arizona attorney general, Kris Mayes, on August 5. Ellis previously pleaded not guilty to nine felony charges against her. In the case, prosecutors accused Ellis and 17 others of conspiring to overturn the 2020 Arizona election results in Trump’s favor. “This agreement represents a significant step forward in our case,” read Mayes’ statement. “I am grateful to Ms Ellis for her cooperation with our investigation and prosecution. Her insights are invaluable and will greatly aid the state in proving its case in court.” Ellis then posted a statement, written by her lawyers, to her X account. “We are grateful the Arizona Attorney General’s Office completely dismissed the indictment against Jenna Ellis as she was not involved in the so-called ‘fake elector’ scheme. Jenna was originally told she was not a target and her cooperation is her continued willingness to tell the truth.” Ellis’ own Tweets suggest her cooperation is VOLUNTARY and not part of a plea deal: https://t.co/4sP3QHJ0Gy pic.twitter.com/5iK3mg6wfj — Jenna Ellis (@realJennaEllis) August 6, 2024 Hope it’s worth it, Jenna. I say this is a bad move. What do you make of this?

J.D. Vance and Kamala Harris landed at the same airport today in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Vance and his team walked over to the reporters covering the arrival of Air Force Two. “Hopefully, it’s going to be my plane in a few months,” Vance said. “I also thought you guys might get lonely, because the vice president doesn’t answer questions from reporters,” he added.

She pretends to be a tough-on-crime prosecutor and yet here she is wanting to defund the police. She’s the border czar, yet she’s opened up the American southern border.” Vance concluded, “This is a person who has to answer questions from the media and it’s disgraceful that she runs from you guys, and it’s also insulting to the American people.” Although Harris has given few on-record answers to reporters since President Biden dropped his re-election bid on July 21 and endorsed her as his successor, she has frequently gaggled off the record with reporters on Air Force Two — answering questions about various topics but not permitting those answers to be reported. Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, held their first joint rally in the battleground midwestern states. “The crowd was heard chanting: ‘This is what democracy looks like.’ It’s unclear what exactly they were referring to considering Kamala Harris was *not* democratically nominated and received no votes in the primary,” Collin Rugg wrote.

Harris told the crowd that Wisconsin will play a pivotal role in this year’s presidential election. “The path to the White House runs right through this state, and with your help, we will win in November,” Harris said. “We are going to win.” Their outdoor rally held in the farm country of Eau Claire was the second since Harris announced Walz as her running mate. A Harris-Walz rally in Philadelphia on Tuesday night drew 10,000 inside the venue and 4,000 outside. Harris and Walz are in the midst of a jam-packed schedule of stops in competitive battleground states. It was Harris’ second stop in Wisconsin since President Joe Biden left the race. Trump’s vice-presidential running mate, Ohio U.S. Sen. JD Vance, also traveled to Eau Claire on Wednesday to counter the Democrats’ messaging.
