Former President Donald Trump, his former chief of staff Mark Meadows, and Rudy Giuliani are unindicted co-conspirators in the Michigan attorney general's case against the state's so-called "fake electors" in the 2020 election, a state investigator revealed in court on Wednesday.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel charged 16 Republicans last year with forgery and conspiracy to commit election forgery for allegedly attempting to replace Michigan's electoral votes for Joe Biden with electoral votes for Trump at the certification of the vote on Jan. 6, 2021.
During Wednesday's hearing, which was part of preliminary examinations for the so-called fake electors, Howard Shock, a special agent for the attorney general's office, also testified that former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis is also an unindicted co-conspirator.
Shock's revelation was in response to questions from Duane Silverthorn, an attorney for Michele Lundgren, one of the so-called fake electors.
"Finally, former President Donald Trump?" asked Silverthorn.
"Yes," Shock testified.
Ted Goodman, Giuliani's political adviser, said in a statement that the former New York City mayor is "proud to stand up for the countless Americans who raised legitimate concerns surrounding the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election."
"He won't be bullied or pressured into silence by highly partisan actors," the statement said.
Nessel dismissed the charges against one of the alleged fake electors in October in exchange for cooperating with the case. The state is still pursuing charges against the other 15 defendants.
All the defendants have pleaded not guilty.

Today, Attorney General Dana Nessel read the charges against Lee Chatfield and his wife in Lansing. Both are charged with misusing social welfare account contributions and stealing from taxpayers. Happy crooked Republican…

Meanwhile In Michigan ... Justice!
Political “good” news is rare these days, so when we find some, we seize it!  (We’ve learned to redefine “good” over the last decade, but that’s a story for another day) Some good news came out of Michigan this week, as Heather Cox Richardson notes in part of her daily newsletter yesterday … Then, today, Michigan’s attorney general Dana Nessel charged sixteen fake electors who signed fake…

Michigan's first openly gay attorney general says there should be ''a drag queen for every school.''
Speaking at a civil rights summit Wednesday in Lansing, the state capital, Attorney General Dana Nessel said, according to reporting from The Detroit News' Craig Mauger, that ''drag queens make everything better. Drag queens are fun.''
She added that there should be a ''drag queen for every school.''
Matt DePerno, the Republican candidate for attorney general, decried Nessel's comments.
''Dana Nessel continues to show just how completely out of touch she is with Michiganders,'' DePerno said in a statement.
''Students in the third grade are behind on their reading, our test scores are some of the worst in the country thanks to these disastrous COVID lockdowns and she calls for drag shows for kindergartners,'' DePerno added.

Gary Eisen was the old 81st State House district rep in 2020. He signed the amicus brief for the dead-in-the-water Texas lawsuit that…
