The Spin

Democratic narrative

First, it was bail bondsman Scott Hall, then Sidney Powell, and now Kenneth Chesebro — a key mastermind behind the fake elector scheme. Though a surge of plea deals remains unlikely, these agreements will push others to carefully choose their steps, especially as the three fallen dominoes will assist prosecutors in incriminating the most prominent names.

Pro-Trump narrative

It has become crystal clear that the playbook of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was to overcharge co-defendants in the case against Trump only to offer them very favorable last-minute plea deals and secure witnesses against her only real target. The justice system doesn't care about trying to hide that the Georgia election case is part of a lawfare campaign against the former president.
