LANSING, Mich. (AP) A Michigan Republican accused of participating in a fake elector plot had all criminal charges dropped Thursday after he and the state Attorney Generals office reached a cooperation deal.

James Renner was one of 16 Republicans who acted as false electors for then-President Donald Trump in 2020, according to charges announced in July by Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel. President Joe Biden won Michigan by nearly 155,000 votes, a result confirmed by a GOP-led state Senate investigation in 2021.

Another one down. I wonder what Arizona is going to end up doing in their investigation.

I can't say it enough. Republicans are the most coddled morons on the PLANET.

Try to ruin free and fair elections and do unforeseeable damage to the future of democracy? Not even probation!

I know I know forest for the trees but unless Trump is behind bars until he's ash in the ground this will never feel like enough.

They can fundraise off it, garner support from those who believe the election is stolen, and will assuredly be rewarded by the party after the next electoral win.

I can't fucking stand "ring leader culture" in prosecution

They'll let so many fucking scumbags go free just so they can try to get one guy for two life sentences instead of just one.
And in this case, the ringleader is Trump, so no one's ever going to jail.

These fuckers never learn their lesson, either. (well, they do: "I can do whatever I want and avoid all consequences!")

Going soft on Watergate gave us Roger Stone
Going soft on Iran-Contra gave us NRA president Oliver North

Right now we're watching the justice system go soft on most of the Perdue Pharma family and all but SBF from FTX. I wonder how those bastards getting a free ride out of jail will fuck us over in the next few decades?

The thing about plea deals is they only offer them if the info you give them beforehand is worth it. To get a deal this good they mustve handed them a goldmine of info

No they can't. You cannot use crimes to make a profit. See: OJ Simpson

Is this just "we're letting you off scot free but with extra steps"?

There's no telling how high up the chain Michigan's investigation will go. They don't seem to be like other states where details get leaked along the way. They announced they were starting their investigation in January, then there was radio silence, then a bunch of indictments were announced. Then radio silence again, and then this plea deal is announced.

Hopefully they don't stop at the fake electors.

Hope it's worth it. Getting Trump is good, but I feel like getting the people that enabled his lunacy is almost more important.

The people who enabled his lunacy are a function of Trump. He started out with people who wouldn't enable him and kept firing them until he found people who would. It's not like he was Macbeth'd.

Exactly and those people need to be severely punished as warning to future enablers of a blatantly buffoonish despot.
