2nd Trump Coup Attorney Pleads Guilty
The architect of Trump's fake elector plot pleads guilty to a felony "Conspiracy to Commit Filing False Documents" and agrees to testify against Trump and his co-conspirators.
Trump's co-defendants are starting to fall like dominos in Fulton County. Kenneth Chesebro is the second Trump coup attorney to accept a plea deal that requires him to testify against Trump and the other RICO co-conspirators charged in the Georgia election fraud trial. Chesebro admitted that he conspired with Donald Trump and his attorneys Rudy Giuliani and John Eastman to put forward "fake electors" in an illegal attempt to overturn the 2020 election.
