The funniest pleading so far is Mark Meadlow’s petition lst night to have the case against him moved to federal court. He claims that traveling down to Atlanta to “observe” the vote counts, twice attempting to gain access to counting rooms where NO entry is allowed except authorized elections staff, multiple telephone calls related to approving a phony slate of electors etc. etc. all in connection with a STATE election process where Trump’s own Attorney General and FBI director found no evidence of widespread fraud, were nonetheless all done “under the color of his duties as a federal official” rather than as an agent of a political candidate seeking to overturn legitimate election results. Transferring a case to federal court requires that the actions were undertaken pursuant to his duties as a federal official; engaging in private “investigative” work on behalf of a losing candidate and aiding and abetting a conspiracy is NOT part of his job description.
