A TPM EXCLUSIVE SERIES
THE MEADOWS TEXTS
Mark Meadows Exchanged Texts With 34 Members Of Congress About Plans To Overturn The 2020 Election
The Messages Included Battle Cries, Crackpot Legal Theories, And ‘Invoking Marshall Law!!’


Based on TPM’s analysis, Meadows received at least 364 messages from Republican members of Congress who discussed attempts to reverse the election results with him. He sent at least 95 messages of his own. The committee did not respond to requests for comment. Some of Meadows’ texts — notably with Fox News personalities and a couple members of Congress — have already been made public by the committee, media outlets, and in the book “The Breach.” However, the full scope of his engagement with congressional Republicans as they worked to overturn the election has not previously been revealed.

Meadows’ text log shows what the scheme to reverse the election results looked like behind the scenes, revealing new details about which members of Congress helped spearhead the efforts and the strategies they deployed. The members who messaged Meadows about challenging the election included some of the highest-profile figures on the right flank in Congress, such as Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL), all of whom are identified as playing leading roles in the effort to undo Trump’s defeat.

The meltdown from MTG and others is because shit just got real and Target Letters may be in their inboxes.

How does that not qualify them for removal via the 14th Amendment?

The 14th Amendment is not self-executing; it requires (ultimately) convincing a judge (several, really).

Who is filing the lawsuit?

With the news that Mark Meadows' original book draft contained references (to trump leaving the Iran war plan classified doc on a couch in his Bedford office) being removed by Meadows after realizing that revelation could cause trump problems....

https://abcnews.go.com/US/meadows-told- ... =102396159
ABC News has also reviewed an early draft of the prologue to Meadows' book, "The Chief's Chief," about his time serving as Trump's chief of staff for the final months of the Trump White House, which includes a description of Trump having a classified war plan "on the couch" at his office in Bedminster, New Jersey, at a meeting attended by Meadows' ghostwriter and publicist, but not by Meadows himself. The reference to that document being in Trump's possession was removed before the book was published.

Multiple sources tell ABC News Meadows acknowledged to investigators that he asked that the paragraph be changed, and that it would be "problematic" had Trump had such a document in his possession. Sources tell ABC News that Meadows told special counsel investigators that he did not discuss making those edits with Trump.
here's a question from someone whose legal expertise consists of binge watching Murder In Paradise on BBC:

IF Meadows is cooperating with Smith, as many suspect, could his request to remove the GA charges to federal court be helped along by Smith?

Bedminster. Bedford is the community next door to mine. Dat's (almost) mah hood.
Some things are simply too fast, or too relentless to avoid. Like the North Carolina rain.

Or the future.

Not sure if that's a boast or a complaint.
