Eastman is believed to be one of the six co-conspirators named in the recent federal indictment against Donald Trump.
to charges of conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, conspiracy against rights, and obstruction of an official proceeding.
While it remains to be seen if charges will be brought against Eastman and the other alleged co-conspirators, he has continued to speak out in defense of Trump's efforts to fight the results of the 2020 election.
John Eastman speaks at a committee hearing. Eastman on Thursday cited a passage of the Declaration of Independence to support Donald Trump's effort to overturn the 2020 election."There's actually a provision in the Declaration of Independence that a people will suffer abuses while they remain sufferable, tolerable while they remain tolerable," Eastman said.
He continued:"So that's the question: have the abuses or the threat of abuses become so intolerable that we have to be willing to push back?"The degree to which Trump might have had reason to push back against the 2020 election results is widely disputed. Despite his own repeated insistence, no evidence has ever been produced to support the idea that there was widespread voter fraud in 2020 sufficient to swing the results of the election in favor of Biden.
