Raids And Subpoenas Fly


Attorney General Garland's Justice Department is going after Republican officials involved in the bogus electors conspiracy:

Nevada

FBI agents served a search warrant Wednesday on Nevada’s top GOP official, sources told the 8 News Now I-Team’s George Knapp.

Agents seized the cell phone of state Republican chairman Michael McDonald, reportedly as part of an investigation into the fake elector scheme initiated at the end of the 2020 presidential election.

A second search warrant was issued for state party secretary James DeGraffenreid, who also signed the document, but FBI agents could not locate him Wednesday, sources told Knapp.

Georgia

Federal investigators subpoenaed the Georgia Republican Party chairman for information related to the fake elector scheme there -- as the Justice Department has issued a fresh round of subpoenas to people from several states who acted as rogue electors after the 2020 presidential election, multiple sources familiar with the situation told CNN.

The subpoena for the chairman, David Shafer, represents a significant step because he played a central role in organizing the fake slate of electors from Georgia and coordinated the effort with the Trump campaign.

Kelli Ward, the head of the Arizona Republican Party, and her husband, Michael, received grand jury subpoenas from the Department of Justice regarding their involvement in a scheme to send fake electors to Congress on Jan. 6, 2021.

The subpoena for the Wards first was reported by the website Politico, which cited an unnamed source it said was familiar with the matter.

There have been reports that subpoenas have also been issued for Republicans involved in the bogus elector plot in Michigan and Pennsylvania as well.

Incompetent Malignant Loser sycophant Jeffrey Clark was also the target of an FBI raid in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, where they confiscated his "electronic devices."  

Let's pause again for a moment to note that the much- maligned Garland Justice Department had a Grand Jury empaneled when nearly everyone was going batshit thinking that they weren't doing anything.  Well, for anyone who's not familiar with major Federal racketeering prosecutions, the DOJ doesn't inform the media and the public of the existence of a special Grand Jury or of its plans and progress.  That's how they run effective and successful prosecutions.  Everyone take a breath.
