Axios - The scope of the Georgia case contrasts sharply with federal indictments by special counsel Jack Smith, Axios' Erin Doherty writes. Smith's case narrowly charged former President Trump as a sole defendant, with six unidentified co-conspirators. Fulton County D.A. Fani Willis' case ties together 161 acts, with 19 defendants and 30 unindicted co-conspirators, across 7 states + D.C.
Trump's tweets were the play-by-play to the alleged conspiracy: 12 of the 161 acts were simply citing Trump statements made on Twitter. The indictment alleges that members of the "criminal enterprise" unlawfully accessed voting equipment and voter data in Georgia — and then distributed that stolen data to members in other states.
Act 19 from the indictment cites a meeting where Trump and White House chief of staff Mark Meadows requested a strategy for "delaying and disrupting" the Jan. 6 congressional certification of electoral ballots
