Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, one of the Official Rbd Rbd El Paso Event Shirt But I will love this defendants charged with racketeering in the Georgia 2020 election probe, took the witness stand for five hours Monday in an attempt to bolster his bid to move the Fulton County case to federal court. Former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants, including Meadows, were booked at the Fulton County Jail last week in connection with efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia, a battleground state. Testifying before U.S. District Judge Steve C. Jones, Meadows portrayed the conduct he’s charged with as part and parcel of his work as Trump’s chief of staff, which he described as a “24/7 kind of job.” Asked by his attorney George Terwilliger whether his duties ever intersected with political matters, Meadows said almost everything the president does has a political reaction. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ office contended in court filings that Meadows crossed a line, including by arranging and joining a call on which Trump pressured Georgia Secretary
of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” votes that would change the Official Rbd Rbd El Paso Event Shirt But I will love this state’s election results. “Federal law prohibits employees of the executive branch from engaging in political activity in the course of their work,” they noted, pointing to the Hatch Act, a law Meadows once told Politico “nobody outside of the Beltway really cares” about. The law “bars a federal employee from ‘us[ing] his official authority or influence for the purpose of interfering with or affecting the result of an election,’” prosecutors noted. Anna Green Cross, a lawyer for the district attorney’s office, asked Meadows on cross-examination what, if any, federal goal he was furthering by taking part in meetings and calls challenging the election results. Meadows said he believed the federal purpose was to ensure that there were free and fair elections in the U.S. She asked him about the purpose of the Raffensperger call, and he said it was to come to a less litigious resolution of the Trump campaign’s then-pending lawsuit against the state. Cross asked whether settling a private lawsuit served any federal purpose, and Meadows replied that his duties were broad. Asked what he thought would be crossing a line, Meadows said it would be if he’d been asked to speak at a campaign rally. Cross then pressed him about whether solely advancing the interests of the campaign would be outside the scope of his responsibilities. “I would not agree with that,” Meadows said. Taking the witness stand for the DA’s office was Raffensperger, who testified for about an hour Monday. Jennifer Little, who is a member of Trump’s legal team, and an attorney for former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark, who is a co-defendant in the case, were watching the testimony from a courthouse overflow room. In court documents this month, Meadows’ lawyers argued that the charges all pertain to official actions he took while he worked for the president. “Mr. Meadows has the right to remove this matter.
