A judge has denied Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows’ request to move his Georgia election subversion case from state court to federal court.
by a Fulton County grand jury on charges they participated in a sprawling scheme to illegally try to overturn Trump’s 2020 presidential election loss in Georgia even though the state’s voters had selected Joe Biden.Meadows said his actions were taken as part of his role as chief of staff to the Republican president.
Prosecutors said the actions laid out in the indictment were meant to keep Trump in office after he lost to Biden, a Democrat. They said the acts were explicitly political in nature and are illegal under, which restricts partisan political activity by federal employees. As such, they said, the case should stay in Fulton County Superior Court.
Several other people charged in the indictment have also filed motions seeking to move their cases to federal court and have hearings before Jones later this month.
