Uh-oh.
Let's start at The New York Times:
The legal pressures on Donald J. Trump and his closest allies intensified further on Monday, as prosecutors informed his former personal attorney, Rudolph W. Giuliani, that Mr. Giuliani was a target in a wide-ranging criminal investigation into election interference in Georgia.
By the time the story reached PBS, this had been added:
It has also become clear that the district attorney is interested in Georgia legislative committee hearings that were held in December 2020 where Giuliani appeared and spread false claims of election fraud in Atlanta’s Fulton County.
And:
In a petition seeking Giuliani’s testimony, [Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis] identified him as both a personal attorney for Trump and a lead attorney for his campaign. She wrote that he and others appeared at a state Senate committee meeting and presented a video that Giuliani said showed election workers producing “suitcases” of unlawful ballots from unknown sources, outside the view of election poll watchers.
Within 24 hours of that Dec. 3, 2020, hearing, Raffensperger’s office had debunked the video. But Giuliani continued to make statements to the public and in subsequent legislative hearings claiming widespread voter fraud using the debunked video, Willis wrote.
Evidence shows that Giuliani’s hearing appearance and testimony “was part of a multi-state, coordinated plan by the Trump Campaign to influence the results of the November 2020 election in Georgia and elsewhere,” the petition says.
And we all know that plan included Pennsylvania.
Specifically, State Senator (and now GOP cand. for PA Gov) Doug Mastriano's "hearing" on November 25, 2020.
Lancasteronline has a detailed rundown of the misinformation Rudy spread at that hearing.
I wonder if Senator Mastriano has a comment on Rudy's legal travails.
Maybe I should ask him.
