Among the "petty" charges on Trump and the 18 others include the former POTUS's tweet encouraging voters to tune into televised broadcasts. Provided in Act 22, the Georgia indictment said that Trump encouraging voters to watch television is a conspiracy. "On or about December 3, 2020, DONALD JOHN TRUMP caused to be tweeted from the Twitter account @RealDonaldTrump, 'Georgia hearings now on @OANN [One America News Network]. Amazing!'" the 98-page paper included. Moreover, Act 100 of the indictment faulted the president for encouraging supporters to tune into Newsmax and Act 101 listed another tweet that encouraged supporters to tune into the Right Side Broadcasting Network as an act of conspiracy. Willis also charged Trump's last White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows for soliciting phone numbers from a pair of Pennsylvania lawmakers. "Meadows sent a text message to United States Representative Scott Perry from Pennsylvania and stated, 'Can you send me the number for the speaker and the leader of PA Legislature? POTUS wants to chat with them,'" the indictment reads. This was, apparently, an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy as per the DA decision. Trump's team's grassroots campaigning is also conspiratorial as per Act 38 of the criminal indictment. Attorney Rudy Giuliani Giuliani was indicted for retweeting a "Patriot Call to Action" that encouraged voters to call their members of Congress to advocate for their cause. "Today is the day we need you to call your state Senate & House Reps & ask them to sign the petition for a special session. We must have free & fair elections in GA & this is our only path to ensuring every legal vote is counted @realDonald Trump," Guiliani's tweet said. Act 32 stated that the former president's call on state leaders to ensure signature verification and call a special session is also conspirational. Additionally, Trump's calling President Pro Tempore of the Georgia Senate Butch Miller on Dec. 3 and Dec. 26, 2020, were overt acts in furtherance of the conspiracy as well as per Willis.The #GeorgiaIndictment is the most insane yet by the looniest prosecutor yet. Claims tweets are conspiracies, legal advice is a crime, Constitutional law is a criminal act, and demanding officials do their job criminal solicitation. It is an embarrassment to the state of Georgia.
