John Eastman, a onetime attorney to former President Trump, said he and his co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case “did nothing wrong” in an interview with Fox News that aired Tuesday evening.
“We did nothing wrong. We were challenging the election for what even Vice President [Mike] Pence described as serious allegations of fraud and numerous instances of officials violating state law,” Eastman told Fox News’s Laura Ingraham. “And if we can’t speak out about that, then our freedom of speech, our right to petition the government for redress of grievances are gone.”
In the Fox News interview Tuesday, Eastman doubled down on his election fraud claims – claims which Ingraham pushed back against numerous times.
“I had lots of evidence of fraud,” Eastman said.
“I haven’t seen that evidence, and I’m always wanting to see everything…I’d love to see that evidence,” Ingraham said.
People died. Something went wrong.
And if you’re that positive that they did nothing wrong, then be glad that it’s doing through the legal system, where the charges will be dropped if you’re correct.
You have much more trust in our legal system than I do.
