Michigan investigators get 'secret' source on Trump fans' plot to seize voting machines

Prosecutors in Michigan have obtained evidence from a "secret" source about a plot by Donald Trump supporters to seize voting machines in the state, reported MLive on Thursday.

According to Jordyn Hermani, new circuit court filings in Oakland County — a populous area that includes the northern suburbs of Detroit — reveal that the unidentified source gave prosecutors information on how a set of five tabulators were acquired “for the purposes of plea discussions, consideration of immunity, and in offer of compromise.”

This comes after a number of other criminal cases surrounding the breaching of election equipment by Trump supporters were brought.

In Mesa County, Colorado, far-right clerk Tina Peters has been accused of illegally allowing a copy of a drive during an update of election equipment to try to prove the election was rigged against Trump. She faces a bevy of charges for the alleged plot, and is currently suing both state and federal authorities to try to end the investigations into her.

Moreover, the breach of election equipment in Coffee County, Georgia was a key point of the election racketeering case filed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in that state. Pro-Trump attorney Sidney Powell was charged for her involvement in that scheme, and she went on to take a plea deal.

At the same time as the election equipment investigation is going on in Michigan, the state is also bringing felony charges against the fake electors who declared themselves for Trump.
