The Federal Government was totally involved in Tina Peters’ investigation and arrest, which is a key reason President Trump has the right to pardon Tina Peters.
Former Mesa County, Colorado Election Clerk Tina Peters broke no state or federal laws by backing up her Election Management Server (EMS) hard drive, having it analyzed, and even publishing the results. If she had, the federal and Colorado state governments would have legally come down on her for doing so, especially during the Biden administration.
In other words, not one state or federal charge resulted from Tina’s actions backing up her county’s server. Because they had NOTHING, Colorado (likely at the behest of the DOJ) had to manufacture imaginary felonies and misdemeanors against Clerk Peters and then prosecute her in the state courts.
President Trump pardoned Tina Peters on Thursday night.
He had the absolute right and duty to do so. There is ample evidence that the federal government under Biden was involved in the Tina Peters case, which supports the argument that, because the federal government led the effort, directed it, or was a large part of the effort to indict and imprison Tina Peters, President Trump can pardon her.
The Biden Regime’s involvement in Tina Peters Case
The FBI issued a statement almost immediately after Peters came forward, stating that they would investigate her for potential violations of federal laws. The Biden regime never formally prosecuted Tina, but it appears that Biden’s Department of Justice was working closely with local Colorado officials who sought to put Peters in jail. (https://coloradosun.com/2021/08/17/tina-peters-replaced/)
The Mesa County District Attorney, Dan Rubinstein, included Matthew Kirsh, the United States Attorney for Colorado, in a May 17, 2022, email to multiple District Attorneys across Colorado. The email is titled “Rule 3.8 Meeting” which appears to reference the rules of professional conduct for prosecutors. (https://www.justice.gov/usao-co/meet-us-attorney, https://www.cobar.org/Portals/COBAR/Repository/12.1.22/Rule%203.8%20-%20Special%20Responsibilities%20of%20a%20Prosecutor.pdf?ver=h4k_BG_0T1kn7Rdgo8sLiQ%3D%3D )
Email from Dan Rubinstein to DOJ attorney and Colorado District Attorneys, apparently brainstorming how to appear legitimate and ethical while prosecuting Tina Peters
The email suggests that Rubinstein was having some trouble reconciling the prosecution of Tina Peters with prosecutors’ rules of professional conduct and had to call in the cavalry to help him brainstorm ways to avoid being “accused of wrongdoing.”
Mesa County District Attorney Dan Rubinstein
First, Rubinstein appears to recognize that there is no precedent for the prosecution he wants to undertake, as he expresses a desire that this group of legal minds start writing opinions and issuing guidance documents in the vein of the Colorado Bar Association (CBA) and the Colorado District Attorneys’ Council (CDAC). Without a coherent legal pathway for prosecution, it appears Rubinstein encouraged this course of action to give prosecutors cover.
Second, Rubinstein notes that it is problematic that they have no formal appointments from a government body to lay the groundwork to prosecute Peters.
Third, Rubinstein informs the group of their need to anticipate defending themselves as to why they didn’t seek an opinion on Peter’s case from the Colorado Bar Association Ethics Commission. Rubinstein and his cronies appear to have succeeded in giving their efforts the veneer of legitimacy because three months after this email was sent, Peters was indicted by a grand jury. (https://www.coloradopolitics.com/courts/tina-peters-arraigned-on-10-felony-misdemeanor-charges-in-case-alleging-election-equipment-breach/article_7ad92362-14ff-11ed-8571-7fe4f678dc82.html)
Another glaring piece of evidence that the Tina Peters case was led by the federal government is that if this was ‘only a Colorado issue’, why were US Attorney General Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray participating in initial Mesa County discussions via Webex regarding the findings of Clerk Peters and her actions related to those findings?
We also know that the full force of the federal government was directly applied to those associated with Tina’s situation, in that the FBI raided Tina’s home.
In addition, Tina’s associate, Sherronna Bishop, ’s home also raided by the FBI.
Also, ‘My Pillow’ CEO Mike Lindell was also targeted by the FBI, and they confiscated his phone while he was traveling in Minnesota. These were federal actions. He was communicating with Tina Peters and offered her his support.
Peters was convicted of first-degree official misconduct, violation of duty, and identity theft.
The official statement behind Tina Peters’ indictment included mention of the federal government,
“ The Mesa County District Attorney’s Office and the Colorado Attorney General’s Office assisted the FBI in the operation, which was described by Mesa County spokesperson Stephanie Reecy as “federally-authorized law enforcement actions into potential criminal activity by employees of the Mesa County Clerk and Recorder’s Office and others associated with those employees.” Read all about it HERE.
It’s easy to see that the federal government was involved in this case and that the federal actions noted above like the raids (that they conveniently ignore now), indicate that this was much more than a Colorado issue. (See Tina Peters story and watch “Selection Code” at https://tinapeters.us/ (links from dropdown menu)).
Joe Hoft was on AON a year and a half ago with Dan Ball, and he mentioned that there is an avenue for President Trump to pardon Tina Peters. If the federal government was behind her arrest and her indictments, or if they ran the operation against Tina, there is good reason to believe that this was a federal operation. This would open an avenue for President Trump to pardon Tina Peters.

— One America News (@OANN) July 16, 2025
Is Tina walking free yet? I didn't think so.
Tina Peters was a message to anyone else in her position or others that dare to do their job by preserving the election results that the left clearly didn't want seen.
This, is a fact!
That's why these criminals abusing prosecutorial authority should pay the highest possible price.
EXACTLY.
The have dug a deep hole for themselves.
It was a federal election as I recall.
Which is why Joe notes in this article she wasn't charged with things related to the election.
I'm so sick of da Trump Administration not indicting and pretrial confinement of at least a dozen CO Officials who seriously broke da law!
.
And Trump is supposed to have BALLS???

They are working on it. They need Tina Peters as a witness. Pray she gets out alive.
Where are her Hard Files she backed up??
Yes, in that ballroom.
No arrests
No mass deportations
No plan
.. KEEP PRAYING for Tina in Jesus' Name.!!
Amen!
AMEN
I do pray that Tina will find the peace and power of Christ while in her chains. The Lord said, my strength is made perfect in your weakness. May it be so.
I believe in the power of prayer, but at some point – someone is going to have to find the courage to act. Then we can say, "see our prayers worked".
Then our prayers will have truly worked to give a courageous leader the strength and commitment to do the right thing. .. and not to turn away from evil because it's uncomfortable.
If Trump can dig into the federal side of the case and find misconduct, then it could lead to Tina's state conviction being overturned. Without federal influence, the grand jury indictment may have never gone through in the first place. And if jurors were lied to, that's blatant perjury.
The prosecutors/judge held back info that would have closed the case.
Everyone on these emails should be arrested by DOJ immediately
Trump listened and Pardoned Tina …to bad the Colorado Communists didnt listen cuz shes still in prison in solitary confinement. Trumps pardon was fluff
Tina Peters out, Jena Griswold in !!
All that is wrong with America can be traced back to democrats.
D-Rats are terrorists.
Mesa County District Attorney, Dan Rubinstein, Jewish; Colorado Governor Jared Polis, Jewish; Colorado Attorney General, Phil Weiser, Jewish; and Colorado Secretary of State, Jena Griswold, Jewish.
Doesn't surprise me on bit! At least 50% of Js have been voting vote for leftist Democrats for over a hundred years. 30% voted of them voted to elect communist Muslim jihadist Mamdani NYC mayor.
When you remove morals, values, ethics and God, from the issues, you can justify anything.
Shouldn't that headline read "President Trump HAS every right…"?
He already issued the pardon.
And he could to it again, because he HAS the power to do so. Not 'had.'
And btw, is Tina Peters out from behind bars now? Nope, because Jared Polis refuses to recognize the power that President Trump HAS.
So much malfeasance among Colorado officials.
Thank you president Trump! You are the only one who has been fighting for Tina Peters all along. No one has done more for Tina Peters than president Trump.
Joe Oltman of Untamed Nation has been fighting very hard for Tina since she was arrested.
Why didn't he pardon her on Day 1? That's what doesn't make ANY sense to me.
He hasn’t done anything for her.
"Back the blue"……
Yeah, but not the COWARDS in tactical gear that are going after White "trespassers" and others who speak out against the beta-commies.
Thats all police in America. Defend yourself against illegals and you'll find out. LEO aren't on our side, they are on their pensions side.
When does Tina get out? Arguments aside all I care about is getting her out so she can get the care she needs.
She is eligible for parole in 3 years.
Is she still in prison?
Yes, Colorado isn’t going to release her until she gets paroled.
Sure, Joe. A federal pardon on a state charge – lets face it, that was stupid. It was empty virtue signalling. Unless Trump has the balls – and I wish he did – to march US Marshals into that prison and extract Peters, nothing happens.
A cursory Look at the Constitution and Nowhere can you find any limitation to Pardon power of the President. Please help me out on this as the Intention of the Founding Fathers was to allow the President to CORRECT INJUSTICE plain and originally simple.
Which version of the Constitution do you refer to? .
Look again. It says he can’t pardon offenses against the United States, IOW federal crimes.
OK, That does not apply to the Tina Peters situation , or does it?
Interesting. So no President has ever pardoned someone for breaking federal law? Really? That is what you have implied in your statement.
Whataboutisms and your opinion mean nothing. She has state charges, Trump can’t do anything about it unless he wants to use force. Thats reality.
Trump can’t pardon state crimes and Colorado has no obligation to accept the pardon.
Trump needs to send US Marshalls to get her out. Now.
Thank God she's finally been pardoned.
Only the governor of Colorado can pardon her.
Of federal charges, of which she has not be charged with any.
Trump better get her out quick before The Shadow Gov't players Get to her before she gets Arkancide
Trump has zero authority to get her out.
They can't have anyone questioning elections, that's the bottom line in all this.
It is absolutely unforgivable that some federal court hasn't dismissed this case based upon the motive for 'fishing for a crime,' and that fact that Tina did what the law requires! Unforgivable! Wicked worthless judges and evil prosecutors.
Federal courts can’t dismiss cases in state courts.
They can when they violate State law while violating Tina's rights.
Only once it gets to the Supreme Court. Before that it gets appealed through the state system. Federal district courts have no jurisdiction.
And that is my entire point. The Supreme court can order her to be free while all this plays out because they can easily see she is not guilty.
That isn’t what the Supreme Court does.
Their job is as guardians to the Constitution. When state laws violate it, they correct it.
There were precinct managers in Arizona as well who were threatened by Arizona SOS with jail time if they failed to certify the stolen election. Remember?
Let litigation play out, but the Supreme court who will likely have to come along and correct the fallacious rulings will have to straighten them out should set Tina free while the criminals running the lower courts play their games.
Tina Peters would first have to file a lawsuit claiming the pardon is valid. When she loses she would have to appeal it. When she loses that she would have to appeal to the Supreme Court. This is such black letter law it is very unlikely the Supreme Court would take it.
I thought they would have appealed on the basis of violating her right to a "fair" trial. Which it obviously was not.
What was unfair about it?
Getting prosecuted for obeying the law.
Polis, Griswold, Kirsch, Weiser, Rubinstein… There's some unifying factor here that Tina pissed off.
Yep. U.S. intelligence doesn't like being caught fixing elections .
Drop the anti Israel stuff. It's getting old.
I'm sure it's just another cohencidence.
I was once sitting in a forested area. I was overwhelmed by this osprey staring at me. I feared for my life.
When he jumped up from the top of the tree and plunged in a 90 mile per hour stoop( that's the word for attack dive in falconry) I jumped up to run.
That's when I realized he was diving into the river beside me as he came out with a great fish.
Maybe you are like my 9 year old self that just percieved the incorrect "point of view". I seen evil looking at me. What the osprey saw was a fish dinner.
She should go on offense and sue the hell out of the top people in CO and eventually throw them in Jail. The FBI should arrest the top democrats responsible for her arrest, raid the houses, throw them in jail. Even if it goes nowhere, do it anyway. Who cares, put them thru hell and maybe you can find something else once you confiscate the computers and cell phones. It's unfortunate this is the world we live in but us Christian Conservatives need to go on offense when we are in power, because if we always stay on defense we will eventually lose.
She would have to prove the conviction was wrongful, almost impossible to do.
Nonsense
Get 100 marines and remove her from the libtard state prison. The guards and police won't do anything. The feminazi and soy boy politicians won't do anything except shat themselves.
That would be a good example of an illegal order that should not be followed.
The DOJ needs to open an investigation into the Secretary of State of Colorado for her mishandling of the 2020 election and possible coverup of irregularities.
What's the reason they haven't already?
USE SEAL TEAMS, AND MARSHALLS……JUST GO GET HER
Those would be illegal orders that shouldn’t be followed.
In your opinion. Let's put that to the test.
Calvin sounds like "The Seditious Six".
You are spot on Wade for calling him out.
The Lefticles went after EVERYBODY that spoke the truth about the stolen election
So bribem's fbi conspired with the peoples republic of colifornia!
Keep it simple. If federal law enforcement were NOT involved, would Tina Peters ever have been arrested? If NO, because federal law enforcement were involved, then President Trump as jurisdiction to issue a pardon. KEEP IT SIMPLE!
A Fox News “Constitutional legal analyst” just now said something like (I’m paraphrasing):
“This ‘pardon’ carries as much power as Trump’s ‘Autopen edict’ from last week, which is to say they are both merely a gesture and are not legally nor Constitutionally enforceable.”
If that’s true… at the very least it explains why President Trump waited 11 months to pardon Ms. Peters. Otherwise his waiting makes ZERO sense!
Trump is failing, and it's very simple why. All these traitors aren't being arrested by weak Bondi/Patel. The midterms are approaching, and MAGA is beyond demoralized over all this crap, from Epstein to no mass deportations, to all those who brought an invasion still not in Gitmo. The outright bowing to genocidal Israel and AIPAC must stop, or the midterms will be a crushing of Republicans. Yes, because of Trump's inaction against the deep state, they will rise again and make sure someone like Trump doesn't sniff the Oval Office again.
Too much Kushner and not enough Bannon.
Absolutely correct.
So Tina Peters allowed Conan Hayes to access the voting machines in August of 2021 and he copied all the files from the machines he accessed.
That was over four years ago.
My question: assuming he found evidence of fraud in the machines he broke into… where the heck is the evidence today? It could have exonerated Ms. Peters!
Yeah you would assume if those files were some big bombshell about the election they would want them to be out there in front of the public for everyone to see. What's the reason they are hiding them?
jailed for exposing part of the STEAL, jailed by the ILLEGITIMATE sniffer joe.
Out here in Colorado the issue is always "it's a state issue", if the Feds were involved that's a horse of a different color.
The involvement of the feds is immaterial. She was convicted in state court of a state crime. Trump can’t pardon that.
Guess we’ll see.
Tina Peters knew she was breaking the law. It is why she used somebody else’s ID to access the voting machines.
They didn’t commit sedition.
If the dems were in the white house right now, there would be many conservatives in prison right now. They don't hesitate. So far I am not impressed with the DOJ. And whatever happened to DOGE?
Elon got bored.
Juan Orlando Hernandez would still be in jail.
There would be concentration camps & another pandemic!
Great, now do Patrick Adamiak.
He could actually pardon him.
1st comment here was 2 hours ago & yet I see nothing about being at home right now?????
"President Trump listened and pardoned Tina Peters" is the last line of the article above.
So why on earth did it take President Trump 11 months to do the bare minimum to help Ms. Peters? After all, she went to jail because she believed in Trump!
Exactly what was she convicted of?
She did a number of things but at the heart of the matter, she used someone else's credentials to let an unauthorized person (Conan Hayes) get access to a voting machine… and that person copied files off the machine.
Aah…So that seems to be the only REAL charge. I take it she didn’t CHANGE the file, though…she wanted proof of the REAL vote count.
Here's the full list actually:
On August 12, 2024 a Mesa County jury found her guilty of three felony counts of attempting to influence a public servant, one felony count of conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, one misdemeanor count of official misconduct, one misdemeanor count of violation of duty in elections, and one misdemeanor count of failure to comply with the secretary of state. She was acquitted on two felony counts of criminal impersonation and one count of identity theft.
Thank You! I don’t see how that adds up to 10 yrs. If ever we saw a corrupt “railroading”, this is it. Colorado Gov’t. needs to be arrested. If they’re what the people want, they shouldn’t be able to vote in Fed elections. Obviously it’s NOT their wish, or the gov’t. wouldn’t have had to change their votes.
Here are the charges, verdicts and sentencing guidelines:
(1) Attempt to influence public servant Jesse Romero (F4)
V: GUILTY
SG: 2 to 6 years prison (presumptive), 3yr mandatory parole; $2,000.00 to $500,000.00

SG: 2 to 6 years prison (presumptive), 3yr mandatory parole; $2,000.00 to $500,000.00

SG: N/A
(4) Attempt to influence public servant Danny Casias (F4)

(10) Failure to comply with Requirements of the Secretary of State (M)
V: GUILTY
SG: 364 days in jail and/or a fine of up to $1,000
Thanks SO much! I don’t see any that are 10 yrs. so they must have made them back to back? What the bleep does “Attempt” to influence” mean? …She went up to them and said “Hey, I have this evidence of tampering. Would you like to go with me to turn it over?” There’s S-O-O much wrong with this!
The attempt to influence must be through deceit or threats.
Praying for Tina.
Justice is coming.
You didn't hear it from me but I hear something big is coming in two weeks.
i won’t tell anyone. promise
she must be one dangerous woman to the Democrats
The State of Colorado relinquished authority over Tinqa Peters when they allowed a FEDERAL JUDGE to rule in her release.
Tina's trial was rescheduled to occur at the exact same time as the Colorado County Clerk's annual meeting that was held one block away. They had already tried her in the local newspaper that had published 600 plus negative to Tina front page articles accusing her of the crimes Dominion and Jena Griswold had committed. All the crimes Judge Barrett committed denying Tina her legal and Constitutional right guaranteed the outcome. As a Vietnam veteran I am sickened by the actions of the elected officials in my home county.
Ok, she now has a pardon. When is the calvary going to break her out of jail?
She has a pardon for federal crimes. Nobody is freeing her from state prison.
did you read the article? But i think she gets disappeared.
I did. Joe is trying to say that because the state prosecutors consulted with federal prosecutors on the case before bringing state charges that this somehow makes the state charges eligible to be pardoned by the president. I don't think any courts are going to agree with Joe on that interpretation.
Yes and Joe Hoft is wrong on the law. Trump can’t pardon Tina Peters.
I pray that I am wrong, but Tina Peters will never get out of prison alive.
Parole is in 3 years that's not all that long.
She knows too much, she will be arkancided!
If she knew anything she would have said it.
If she really knew something don't you think Trump would be working way harder to get her out as a federally protected witness?
You ever been in jail, boy?
Nah I try to stay on the right side of the law.
IF this is allowed to stand expect this 1000x fold against American patriots all across America, the next go around. The demonrat thieves can only win by stealing elections
There is plenty enough evidence out there to prove this now, and they cant hide it forever. Now that they have done this and are undeniably in it, they can't let up. They have to continue to go "all in" to try to stop the truth, because its either that or they know they will be found out with appropriate conseqiences, including federal prison.
Time is almost up. They will be desperate which, means they will resort to desperate measures to try to prevent the truth coming out.
This sounds like a conspiracy against rights. DOJ CIvil Rights Div
How?
It was the FBI that raided Tina's home. THAT MAKES IT A FEDERAL CASE> Mr President: Send in the US Marshals today!
Are you citing legal precedent or is that just your personal opinion?
What's it to ya?
It is black letter law. The president can’t pardon state crimes.
And Colorado wouldn't convict an innocent woman?
Innocent people get convicted all the time. But that has nothing to do with the president’s pardon power.
Desperate situations call for desperate measures. Wherever you go…there you are.
This article is incorrect and spreads misinformation. While I agree that the persecution and conviction of Peters is morally wrong, she was nevertheless prosecuted under state law and state court. Rather going down the path of unconstitutional pardons, Peter's attorney needs to file a federal court action for undue process and under the 14th Amendment Equal Protection Clause. In addition, Trump should have Bond investigate the state officials.
There is nothing unconstitutional about President Trump's recent pardon of Tina Peters. The Constitution under Article. II. Section. 2. does NOT carve out any prohibitions on a Presidential Pardon, save one instance and that instance is reserved for Impeachments only. Had the Founding Fathers wanted to restrict the Pardon Power of the President, they would have specifically called them out there and then just as they did in their concern for pardoning impeachments.
So no, everyone is absolutely wrong in this asinine theory that the President cannot pardon someone for a state crime.
Fact is, the Constitution of the United States of America is the Supreme Law of the Land and supersedes the Colorado state constitution and Colorado state law; as both were required to be written in complete compliance with the Constitution of the United States of America.
The Constitution of the United States of America also sets up the president of the entire United States to be the Chief Law Enforcement Officer for all of the United States including Colorado and thus the President ranks higher than the Governor or the CO AG.
Same goes for the US Supreme Court; the state supreme courts cannot overrule the SCOTUS and they cover all 50 US States and US Territories, as does the jurisdiction of the President as Chief Law Enforcement Officer.
He can only pardon offences against the United States, I.e. federal crimes.
We all remember Tina Peters being with Mike Lindell at his "Cyber Symposium" in August 10-12, 2021 when the FEDERAL RAID and search of her home took place.
"Cyber Symposium Detailed Summary"
If I remember correctly she said this herself while on stage with Lindell.
Lindell was the one who introduced Tina to Conan Hayes by the way…
* SEND IN THE U.S. MILITARY TO FREE TINA FROM THIS (D)AMN CORRUPT COLORADO ! *
Hopefully they would not follow that illegal order.
Restitution from every corruptocrat involved. Conspiracy charges for every one too.
CORRUPTOCRAT…I like that.
Lets just hope the Democrats do not panic and decide to hurry things up to take out this poor woman. Given the danger to the Dems they are absolutely capable of anything as we have witnessed
I worry about that for 14 months now.
They tried to get her moved into Federal custody because Tina has been assaulted 3 times already in prison. Pray for God to keep her safe till Trump can figure some way to spring her. I like the idea of granting her Federal election fraud whistleblower status.
It's another tactic of the evil left………..convict under state laws so feds cannot intervene.
And blowhard Blondi is useless to the core.
Bronze statues of Tina at every state Capitol. And Presidential medal of Freedom.
Why stop at bronze? We can use all that gold we have sitting in Fort Knox.
There's that whole "conspiracy against rights" code too, in this case the Federales were apparently involved in the conspiracy.
All told though, one wonders if something more sudden might be warranted. Such as 50 or more Federal Marshalls backed with X amount of Marines. Given the importance of Tina's witness to the survival of Our Republic as well as for her own sake and for the sake of Justice. Historically a big part of the Deep State playbook is to lawfare dawdle so that time can be bought in order for witnesses to die.
Tina Peters is subjected to fabricated, cruel, and unusual punishments for following the law on retaining election records.
Everything she did was in accordance with the election laws. She has every right to sue the pants off of State of Colorado.
She used somebody else’s ID to enter the facility and give election data to an uncleared person. Does that sound like it was in accordance of election laws?
The ONLY way she could release it without getting shot by Colorado authorities for resisting arrest doing something that her job required her to do. Do you ever read anything other than headlines.
Why is this not stuck to the top of the page with a massive headline?!!!
Anything electronically programmed can be compromised. So why are we even using electronics in elections?
BINGO!!
Paper ballots and hand counting.
so simple yet our corruptoCongress won't gett'r done.
And citizens are getting sick of waiting.
You answered your own question, with your first statement.
It is done to steal elections.
That is the only reason, there could be no other.
It is of my humblest opinion that this article serves as confirmation that our POTUS et al., are indeed feverishly working to right this wrong regarding Mrs. Peter's.
It takes time to locate the snakes under all those rocks.
& Judges that _________. (fill in the blank)
They need her as a witness, I believe. 2 former whistleblower generals in Venezuela came forward and said Venezuela & insiders here tainted the Dominion machines to steal 2020 election. I pray they get her out alive.
You're making me think there may be more to this war on Venezuelan drug boats and Trump threatening to begin land ops in Venezuela.
Sorry but I still don't understand what she did wrong
Nothing!!
its easy she exposed tbe fraud in the election
She did her job as in her job description. LOL
She did nothing wrong. She was told to illegally erase the election files which had to be maintained for 22 months, so she made a copy to preserve it. The SOS and Governor along with the DA should all be in jail not her. If we had a real DA they would be
She went into the office at night using a different name and brought in an unauthorized person working for Mike Lindell and stole the election data and gave it to him. She knew it wasn’t legal and that is why she didn’t use her own pass.
What would be the point of stealing the election data after the election?
She stole another employee's identity and gave it to a QAnon guy so he could access and download restricted government files. This is what Joe means when he says she wasn't charged with backing up election data.
And why would files on an open election be restricted?
Not all election data is public.
She was a CO government official authorized to access the files, and to approve of the guy having them.
Definitely not authorized to take another employee’s credentials and give those to him.
I don't think that happened "sources say"
Did she dispute those allegations in the trial?
The evidence is there for her to win on appeal, even if it has to go all the way to the Supreme Court. Then that's when the proverbial crap will hit the fan. She should the State of Colorado all the way back to the stone age.
She'll be out on parole by the time that happens anyways.
Colorado has never allowed her bail. Nor do they give her necessary medical treatment. They want her to die.
Sorry I meant to say parole.
I can't believe the SCUM are winning in this case!!
This changes a lot of things if federal agencies were involved. They just made Colorado do all the dirty work.
I think people were assuming this case was handled within the state level but with this revelation the feds were definitely involved, gathering evidence, advising the state Attorney General and prosecutors.
I guess I'm confused I don't see how the state consulting with federal agencies changes the fact that this was a state court trial.
Sounds like 'conspiracy" to deprive Tina of her Civil Rights….good case to go after all of them.
They want to keep her locked up and out of the limelight so she cannot expose the truth
It was a Federal Case, decided in State Court. Sure the State was involved, but it was a Federal Election.
They charged her in State Court, HOPING she couldn't be pardoned… because her evidence against State corruption, (of a Federal Election) is absolutely damning.
As Joe notes in the article, she isn't being charged with backing up election data. Her major crime is stealing another employee's credentials and giving them to a QAnon guy so he could access and download restricted government files.
For 11 months, I've been asking on TGP comment boards “why hasn’t President Trump pardoned Tina Peters?” and would consistently get slammed by commenters who would reply: “because it’s a STATE crime—he can't pardon her, you idiot!”
Now, suddenly, he pardons her… and those exact same commenters who chided me want to know why the pardon won’t get her out?
Seriously??
I know, right? I'm about done even commenting on this story. Most people don't even know what Tina was convicted of, but they are sure are anything that a Presidential pardon will spring her out of jail immediately. It didn't help that Belinda Knisley testified against her and confirmed she let Conan Hayes (not a state employee) have access and copy data from the machines. But hey…you can't convince some people.
When laws are ignored in state or federal concerns then you have total confusion!
As long as US DOJ was communicating with CO state DOJ then you could say the FEDS were involved. However, you could say that was not important also.
The charges were fake charges & CO is guilty of fraud, at the very least, to hide election fraud!
They were state crimes, not Federal crimes, Trump doesn't have the authority, the Presidential pardon is unenforcable,
You got caught suckers, now pay the price.
They could make her a federal protected witness to 2020 election fraud conspiracy.
Why do you think they haven't done that?
Why do you think that.
Why do I think what?
Having trouble understanding what you said. Hmmmm
You're having trouble understanding what I said? That's fine what part do you need clarification on?
That they have made her a federally protected witness, as Otto Pen said that they could do that, and you asked Otto why he thought they had not done that. Ergo why do you think they have. Simple.
Why do I think they have made her a federally protected witness? Unless I missed something they haven't.
Midterms will be a disaster for republican's. Thanks Trump
Then it seems that there is no reason that President Trump cannot send in federal government agents to escort her out of the prison today!
Other than it is illegal?
Your persistance in idiocy is remarkable.
Of course Biden had to get involved, they had to hide the 2020 steal, can't let stuff get out.
Why do you people keep blaming Bittem?He didn't even know what time of the day it was…
Better yet release the data Tina has to the public and show the differences.
Does the QAnon guy she gave the stolen credentials to still have them? Where is he at?
Now sanction Colorado until her release. Shut down all alcohol tobacco and firearms sales. Freeze highway funding. Hit them hard. The fed needs to make her the most expensive prisoner ever housed in Colorado times 10. Should have started over a year ago.
Written in the Constitution is both state and federal roles in elections. This is a dual interest dispute where the state retains a majority role.
Because of the federal supremacy clause also written into the Constitution, Federal government roles listed in the Constitution, this pardon has full force and effect.
Not true. In the Constitution it gives the President the authority to pardon offenses against the United States, IOW federal crimes. Trump can’t pardon state crimes.
It was an election that had federal officers on the ballot. It's dual interest.
But her state charges have to do with her committing identity theft, not with her handling of election records.
If it is dual interest than that would mean it could be charged in both state and federal court. It doesn’t give a president the authority to pardon state crimes.
I rest my case. Read the article. The fed was going to charge her but instead, assisted the idiot attorneys general to do it.
You need to read all of the Constitution, and not just the parts you like .
The article is wrong. Trump had no right to pardon her and Colorado has no obligation to accept it.
2020 was a federal election. While Colorado gets to run the elections in their state, they don't have the right to cheat, destroy records, and imprison innocent people to hide their theft of an election. It is time that the DOJ raid the SOS office, and the prison, and confiscate all emails and records. You know that there are emails between the Governor, Jena Griswold, the corrupt Judge, and the prison officials in this case. That is conspiracy to destroy evidence of a crime, corruption, and conspiracy to violate the Civil Rights of Tina Peters and others.
This all falls under federal election laws and RICO, and it's past time for Pam Bondi and the FBI to get aggressive in this. I'm sure they've already destroyed most records, but it's very hard to destroy all the email records of anyone those emails went to in the conspiracy and collusion. They only have to find one email that connects them all, then start getting subpoenas requesting the email chains associated with that email. If they are all destroyed, they are all complicit in the coverup of a crime.
Fantasy.
The stinking leftist Democrats knew what was going down. The poor woman has suffered so much for their collective conspiracy.
The arguments presented here are grounds for an appeal but they don't hand Trump the authority to break the constitution and free her.
B$, liar.
She exposed fraud in a FEDERAL election which violated Federal Election Laws.
You leftists know NOTHING about the Constitution, our laws, our history, economics, and you care less. Making stupid statements about crap you know nothing about, like a child would.l because you’re CULTISTS.
man how much bull shit in this story but what am
Mrs. Peters is a true America Patriot. She should have a scholarship and a High School named after her.
Now, how bout prosecuting the prosecutors?
Mark my words, they will “suicide” her before they ever release her. The Democrats tactic is to kill the people who have the actual evidence, they know we know, but, they will continue until someone actually takes them out. With the justice system bought and paid off by the democrats, it’s actually going to take a vigilante stance to break these evil, reckless murderers.
If she has evidence why hasn’t she released it already? She has nothing.
She did you fool.,,,,and they prosecuted and put her prison for that,,,,,can't you read.
There's no sense in fighting this because the powers that be are ordained by God. God wants Tina right where she is for reasons we don't understand. i suspect it's to put her in a position where she is inclined to trust in Him to get her through, and that God is using this to build a relationship in Christ with her. She should embrace the opportunity because there are many distractions in life that choke out the Word, and nothing is more important than eternal life in the Lord Jesus Christ.
And there's this, he who resisteth the power bringeth to himself damnation. God has brought the foreigner(s) into our Country, He has allowed all manner of wickedness because those people who call themselves by His name, many like this are not right with God. It's a wake up call.
The Tina Peters' case was about vote fraud affecting a national election. By saving the data and then comparing it to what was reported, she proved the fraud. Biden's DoJ was not only all over it but worked with the Colorado government to suppress the discovered fraud – Federal democrats protecting state democrats.
The real problem is that the criminal fraud wasn't prosecuted but the democrats used the situation to suppress a whistleblower. Tina Peters is the star witness in the criminal fraud and she is in danger in a democrat run prison.
Incorrect. Her case was about her stealing another employee's identity and giving it to a QAnon guy, allowing him access to restricted government files.
You haven’t dismissed the fundamental issue which is vote fraud. Yoou shoot the messenger but not the message
And that election was a federal one.
Which the state runs. It doesn’t make it a federal crime.
Yea it does turkey
States run their own elections, tht's the problem–that's why they were state charges.
The Constitutional rights of Tina that were violated ARE a Federal matter.
Interesting that Tina's lawyers haven't claimed this, why do you think that is?
But she ddisputed the federal election, making it federal
And yet still only whispers of fluff and fluffery from Pam Bondi's dysfunctional "Just-Us" Department. Where Democrat felons are set free, are never indicted and just continue their crime spree. Tina Peter's will die in prison. And the Demons of the Democrat Party will celebrate in glee.
Bottom line: Dems are crud.
You're too poIite.
Trump needs to send in the US Marshalls backed up by 20 Heavily armed FBI agents to take her out of Prison. The morons in Colorado can step aside and go pound sand.
That would be illegal.
What THEY(the morons) did was illegal,so Trump would be righting a wrong.
2 Corinthians 4:4 Satan, who is the god of this age, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe…
The true God calls Satan the god of this age, which means he has some control for a limited time. This is what we are up against.
The Democrat party and everything under their influence is owned and run by Satan. The money behind it all, the politicians, the media, judges, D.A.s, RINOs are all being orchestrated by Satan whether they realize it or not.
So whatever we do to fight for our republic's survival and ultimately our very freedom must include the true God. We must pray and ask for knowledge, wisdom and God's assistance.
Lincoln was right when he said, "I pray we are on God's side."
Matthew 6:33 Seek the sovereignty and righteousness of God above all else, and He will give you everything you need.
God founded this nation and He saved President Trump over and over again so there is no reason to believe God won't help us through this difficult challenge. Amen.
He pardoned her and now we will see if the Federal Government will send the force necessary to free her! Not likely. Sham judges are all over this case and they now rule the judicial system. More than likely this poor soul is going to die in the American gulag.
He can’t pardon state crimes. This was all performative.
She's out on parole in 3 years that'll come before you know it.
What I want to know is why the FBI hasn’t arrested and charged CO SOS Jena Griswold for ordering county clerks to illegally delete the 2020 election result BEFORE the statutory limit for retention. THAT is the crime. FREE TINA PETERS
Because it didn’t happen.
Good question. What reason would make the most sense?
And Woke DA and state election authorities were eager to nail her.
I don’t know if Trump knows he can’t pardon state crimes, but his pardon attorney does. This is an embarrassment for him.
Trump's trying to get an innocent patriot out of prison. It's not an embarrassment to him.
Despite the liars, America knows this.
There are so many who deserve jail and more that will never be caught or charged. It seems it's always Pubs getting arrested etc even though it has slowed since Joe. We are in big trouble, so many who give nothing but want it all.
Interesting videos;
"Jena Griswold shout in Mike Lindell's cyber symposium."
"MESA COUNTY CLERK & RECORDER TINA PETERS EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH KREX 5"
"Tina Peters announces raising $230K to pay for primary recount"
No doubt the last thing corrupt Democrats in CO wanted was a recount.
If during The Federal Governments RAID by the FBI on Tina's home THEY obtain ANY evidence, turned over 'said' evidence to Colorado DA, THAN IT IS A FEDERAL CASE!!!
The FBI took custody of any of Tina's private/previlage data, there is a chain of custody. DID Colorado recieve/use ANY of this data against her?
I believe that if the Feds raided Tina (THEY DID) THEN IT'S A FEDERAL CASE whether they used that evidence or not.
YES…But you know they gave to the Colorado DA! THAT fact would set her free & prove corruption!
She was still convicted of state crimes that Trump can’t pardon.
The FBI would have had jurisdiction in ANY state over alleged Federal election crimes! By the way, you must not have looked at the facts of this case!
State prosecutors often coordinate with federal agencies it's not out of the ordinary. The case still remains wholly in the state's jurisdiction.
Not if confiscated personal data was obtained by the Feds “about a Federal Electioons” was given to the state after FBI built the case. By the way the Feds would have jurisdiction in ANY state over ‘alleged’ Federal Election crimes PERIOD
The crimes she was charged with weren’t federal election crimes.
IT WAS A FEDERAL ELECTION! The crimes were fabricated to FIT under state guidelines’
Her crimes are related to when she stole a coworker’s security credentials and gave them to someone who wasn’t authorized to have them. Those are pretty clearly crimes against the state not federal crimes.
She was aquited of identiy theft. The singal chat showed that Mr. Wood was working with her and ALL ACTIONS STEMMED FROM A FEDERAL ELECTION! That is why the first state DA left the case. Infact his emails show that Colorado KNEW that they DID NOT have legal standing to bring about charges. Get off of CNN & MSNBC
Where's the US marshals?
Lets Go Boys, Tina isn't getting any younger!
Does everyone know what the 9th and 10th Amendments mean?
Peters is in State prison for State crimes. The Trump pardon is a teat on a bull.
Patriots got to bust her out of prison one way or another.
She's out on parole in 3 years, it seems like risking lives over getting her out before that is a bit overkill. Plus she'd be living as a fugitive for the rest of her life.
Everyone needs to quit talking about this and get that poor woman out of jail ASAP. The lawfare under the previous administration was absolutely ridiculous. How this was allowed to go on is unreal to me!!
I wouldn't be surprised if Trump wasn't working on something right now
Nope I am not wrong. I unlike yourself, have read the Constitution. There is NO specific carve out to bar the President from Pardoning an individual convicted in State Court, save for impeachment as I previously stated. So lay off the specious Fallacy claim that you are attempting to make here and stop lying.
Colorado law is not sovereign and superior in relation the Constitution of the United States of America. The Colorado constitution and laws of the state are all subservient to the Constitution of the United States of America and are to be written in accordance with the Constitution of the United States. The state courts and state supreme courts are all subservient to the US Supreme Court. If you were actually a lawyer, you'd already know this.
In the very beginning of Article. II. Section 2. It basically states that the President also can take control of the Militia of any State, without the approval of the governor. That right there, and the fact that the Founding Fathers felt compelled to put that bit in there right at the top of the Section.; tells you who's actually in charge here. The states are not sovereign in the respect of sovereign fiefdoms, that their governor can defy the President, nor the will of Congress or even a ruling from the Supreme Court, at will.
The Amendment X does not supersede Article. II.
BTW: I have read their US Constitution since elementary school and read it thousands of times of my life time. I also was the only student of my year in law school, which consists about 300 plus students, to receive an A+ in Constitutional Law. I received a higher grade than the valedictorian and the salutatorian. For the NYS bar exam, I wa sin the 95 percentile of people who passed. What about you?
Interesting;
"The FBI becomes involved in local election fraud when federal interests are implicated, such as when a ballot includes a federal candidate, an election official abuses their office in a way that affects federal elections, the conduct involves false voter registration, or the activity violates federal campaign finance laws."
"The FBI investigates federal election crimes, including voter/ballot fraud, civil rights violations, campaign finance offenses, and threats to election workers."
Does this make it a federal case thus giving Trump the power to pardon Tina Peters???
Well it's not an election fraud case so I doubt it.
So why then were they involved if it was not federal???
State prosecutors regularly consult with federal agencies on state cases. That doesn’t all of a sudden make them federal cases that’s crazy.
It was more than a consultation if they are the ones who beat down her door with a battering ram and and raided her home.
She was convicted of state crimes. Trump can’t pardon state crimes.
Call it cooperation if you want then.
Im not a lawyer, thankfully so. However if its drama thats required, and it would appear so, sadly few seemed to care until recently after all the media hype, and Trump could have intervened long ago but chose not to, anyhow if its drama thats required then why not send in a special forces squad and perform an extraction. That would achieve the desired result and would be a kicked hornets nest for the PR world. Something they could all feed off of for weeks at least. At peast the poor woman would be safe and cared for.
Trump is dealing with lots of allegations that he is a wannabe dictator. That would not help his case.
I have read it in its entirety .
the UNITED STATES, includes the state of Colorado, moron.
They set the President up to be a check on the potential, eventual tyranny of the several governors. Just as the Supreme Court serves as a check and balance on the tyranny of Lawyers and inferior courts including state supreme courts. State supreme courts are not sovereign and free to operate outside of the Constitution and the authority that the US Supreme Court has over them.
Same goes with the office of the President over the offices of the several governors.
Now you attempt to further use fallacy in an attempt to insult my intelligence and my Religion too? No doubt in order to use Fallacy as some sort of false appeal to superiority?
Wow! Not sure what that is even about but it sure does sound extremely bigoted and intolerant of you.
Apparently lame attempts at fallacy ( a leftist cheap debate tactic) and lies are all you have.
As you point out, and as I had previously stated, (thanks for making my point for me btw) in this line in Article.II. Section. 2.
The Founding Fathers chose to make no other restrictions on the Pardon power of the President, save the one specific concerning Impeachment. That's it.
No, not in the context. It was meant for the FEDERAL government. I never wrote that the States could operate outside the constitution, Again, you show your lack of reading comprehension. I wrote the following in my comment above:
"While I agree that the persecution and conviction of Peters is morally wrong, she was nevertheless prosecuted under state law and state court. Rather going down the path of unconstitutional pardons, Peter's attorney needs to file a federal court action for undue process and under the 14th Amendment Equal Protection Clause. In addition, Trump should have Bond investigate the state officials."
Do you have any idea how the Framers considered their own states as their country? Do you understand that the states created the FEDERAL REPUBLIC. Do you even understand what federalism is?
What is your education?
The Bottom line here, Sole, is, I am right and you're not. No amount of lying or use of fallacy to try to dominate a debate you lost is ever going to change that.
Trump just Pardoned Tina Peters, and all of his high dollar lawyers in the WH office of Pardon's ( lets go ahead and just assume the DoJ Lawyers too) clearly approved it. So all the lies and your snotty, bigotry and intolerance of others, and false claims about what school you never attended or the law degree you never actually got, is never gonna change that fact that I am right, now.
And don't worry son, I have read the Federalist Papers and the Anti-Federalist papers too, when I was a University student and again as part of a months long JBS course on the Constitution and Federalism.
"Son"? I am probably older than you. If you may have read the Federalist Papers, you clearly do not understand it. Yes, you know better than the lawyer who majored in political science and the courts.
In Young v. United States, 97 U.S. 39, 66 (1877), stated that if there is no offense against the laws of the United States, there can be no pardon by the President. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld this law in
In Ex parte Grossman, 267 U.S. 87, 113 (1925), the U.S. Supreme Court held that “the pardon of the President was to operate upon offenses against the United States as distinguished from offenses against the states ” and recognized that criminal, but not civil, contempt is pardonable.
What university do you go to? Are you an attorney?
Commie Colorado. Good place to test MOAB's
A waste of good munitions
Trump's words mean absolutely nothing as long as she is still behind bars. GET HER OUT YESTERDAY!!
You can bet that the state and democrats will fight like hell to say the president can't pardon state crimes. That is precisely why they did it this way.
Of course they will say that because it is true.
It actually would be true were it not for the federal government directing and controlling the entire case, from start to finish, all confirmed. Troll harder.
Exactly. THis is not the usual garden-variety case
Calvin appears to be a brain dead Liberal, best ignored,
Trump needs to have her designated as a witness in a federal election integrity investigation and have her moved to the witness protection program (although with how deeply corrupt our government has been, it's hard to know if this program even operates safely and securely).
That must be why they haven't done it yet.
I don't know… I just worry for her safety.
That isn’t how it works. Criminals don’t get removed from prison to be witnesses.
Now that you called her a criminal I see the way you swing, you need to go over to the politico comment site,
She has been convicted of crimes, that is the definition of criminal.
Man you are a brain dead liberal, blocked before you stink up my computer,
What crimes?
She was wrongly convicted for following the law. She’s an innocent political prisoner.
That is what appeals are for. But she came in at night, using a pass that wasn’t hers and gave election data to a Mike Lindell lacky. That was not following the law.
Harris lost. Get over it, libtard.
She was basically prosecuted for following federal election law in backing up the voting system to preserve the data. It was vengeful prosecution when Jenna Griswold had machine passwords on the internet that anyone could have accessed yet she still walks free. Dems are full of “creative prosecutions” and Trump needs creative offense solutions.
SHe was in charge of the passes. She was in charge of the facility.
"She came in at night" only to the extent that if you do a backup you don't disrupt people doing their work. You ALWAYS do it after hours, not "at night" but after the end of the week day.
The election data is public. So what do you mean "gave it to Mike Lindell?"
There was absolutely no evidence of that, but that is a kooky comment. GIVE THE DATA TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Why wouldn't they give the election data to anyone who wanted to see it?
They are removed DAILY to be a witness in a case, prosecution etc. Look at almost any vintage mob conviction. You are an IDIOT.
It can. It depends. If an inmate has only a small part of a case to contribute, maybe they can stay where they are. But if an inmate is a major part of the case and has to be interviewed all across the issues in the case, they would probably be moved.
Here, Tina Peters would be the main, major and extensive witness before a grand jury.
The grand jury is not going to schlepp to the jail.
Trump should send in the federal marshals right now and free her and arrest anyone that stands in there way,
That would be highly illegal and would get him impeached and a good chance at conviction.
It would be highly legal and is in the works
Colorado politicians need to be prosecuted. Why are they above the law?
So they lock up this harmless grandma, and let convicted felons out?
Literally
THANK GOD! Now lets get her out of that torture chamber.
The pathway to allow Federal jurisdiction happened on day 1 when they screwed the pooch with their involvement.
Colorado is a refried s***hole. It's a stinking travesty that it took this long.
Hey everybody, check out the mug on that NAZI knocking on the door, above.
Since Trump had every right to pardon Tina Peters, seems President Trump has every right to enforce it.
Since Trump had every right to pardon Tina Peters, seems President Trump has every right to enforce it.
It is a state crime. He has no right to pardon her.
I think that’s debatable that it was just a state crime when the Feds were involved up to their necks, even Biden and Merrick Garland.
When I say it was a state crime I am speaking literally. She was charged in a Colorado state court of a Colorado state crime. The federal governments involvement is immaterial, Trump can’t pardon state crimes.
What crime?
The ones she was convicted of. Trump’s belief she is innocent doesn’t give him the power to pardon her.
But when you mouth plattitudes but you don’t know what she was charged with you show you don’t understand what is going on.
The NATURE of those charges gives Trump the power to pardon her.
She was charged with Federal issues, dressed up as State crimes.
Painting stripes on a horse does not make it a zebra
When I say it was a state crime I am speaking literally. She was charged in a Colorado state court of a Colorado state crime. The federal governments involvement is immaterial, Trump can’t pardon state crimes.

A little "shock and awe" would go a long way. I don't think prison guards are going to resist an assault on the prison by federal forces. The only way we win back our country is to bear down against BS.
