"District Judge Matthew Barrett told former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters — after earlier sparring with her for continuing to press discredited claims about rigged voting machines — that she never took her job seriously.
“I am convinced you would do it all over again if you could. You’re as defiant as any defendant this court has ever seen,” Barrett told her in handing down the sentence. “You are no hero. You abused your position and you’re a charlatan.”
Jurors found Peters guilty in August for allowing a man to misuse a security card to access to the Mesa County election system and for being deceptive about that person’s identity.
The man was affiliated with My Pillow chief executive Mike Lindell, a prominent promoter of false claims that voting machines were manipulated to steal the election from former President Donald Trump. The discredited claims trace back to Trump himself, whose supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol because of them and who still hints at them in his third run for president."

Matt Shuham at HuffPost:
Tina Peters, the Republican former county clerk and right-wing folk hero, was found guilty Monday on four of seven felony counts against her, and guilty of all three misdemeanor counts. The charges related to one of the most significant election security breaches in recent years. Peters, who declined to testify at trial, is the former clerk and recorder of Mesa County, Colorado, which is home to Grand Junction and around 150,000 people. She became a cause célèbre for the nationwide election denial movement after she was indicted in relation to the security breach ― maintaining that the breach occurred while she was trying to investigate Dominion voting machines, and that her actions were legal.
The jury reached the verdict after about four hours of deliberation Monday. Peters was not taken into custody at the courthouse but rather instructed to report to a probation officer by noon Tuesday. She’ll face a sentencing hearing on Oct. 3. Based on the verdict, Peters could face anywhere from 7¾ to 22½ years in prison, according to Marshall Zelinger, a reporter at KUSA-TV in Denver. “Tina Peters willfully compromised her own election equipment trying to prove Trump’s Big Lie,” Jena Griswold, Colorado’s Democratic secretary of state, said in a statement reacting to the verdict. “She has been found guilty of 4 felonies and 3 misdemeanors by a jury of her peers and will now face the consequences of her actions. Today’s verdict sends a clear message: we will not tolerate any effort to threaten the security of our gold standard elections. I am proud that justice for Colorado voters has been served today.”
After the 2020 election, Peters secretly brought a computer analyst aligned with the election denial movement into a protected software update meeting for Dominion election machines in her county, wary of state officials erasing election information. The analyst attended the update under a disguise, using the name and access badge of a local Mesa County resident. Digital images from the software update soon leaked online ― published by Ron Watkins, a key QAnon figure ― and state officials quickly descended upon the Mesa County elections office to investigate. Peters was indicted in 2022, and pleaded not guilty ahead of trial to three counts of attempting to influence a public servant, two counts of conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, and one count each of criminal impersonation, identity theft, first-degree official misconduct, violation of duty, and failing to comply with the secretary of state. The first seven counts were felonies, the last three were misdemeanors. Peters was found guilty Monday of all felony counts except one of the counts of conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, criminal impersonation, and identity theft. She was found guilty of the three counts of attempting to influence a public servant and one of the counts of conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation.
[...]
A National Network
Though elections in the United States are largely run on the local level, Peters’ trial showed the truly national scope of the election conspiracy theory movement, which Donald Trump supercharged four years ago when he denied the facts of his own 2020 reelection loss ― ultimately leading to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on Congress, an attempt by Trump supporters to overturn Joe Biden’s win. For one thing, Sherronna Bishop, an ally of Peters’ and a key witness in the trial, is Rep. Lauren Boebert’s (R-Co.) former campaign manager. Bishop, a right-wing activist, introduced Peters to the national election conspiracy theory community ― among them Douglas Frank, a election conspiracy theorist who has toured the country claiming to have discovered mathematical proof of election rigging. In reality, as The Washington Post reported, Frank’s pitch involves “a bit of impressive-sounding chicanery that is light-years away from any proof of fraud.” It was Bishop who testified that Wood, the supposed victim of identity theft, had actually consented to the use of his Mesa County badge as part of the scheme ― a claim Wood and the prosecution denied.
Jurors in the Peters case heard a secretly-recorded meeting between Frank and Peters ― taped by a concerned member of Peters’ office ― in which Frank encouraged the then-county clerk to root out “phantom” ballots and acknowledged he was being paid by Mike Lindell, the CEO of MyPillow and a major funder of the election denial movement. The same concerned staff member, Stephanie Wenholz, Mesa County’s front-end elections manager, said Peters had mandated that staff attend a presentation by Frank, hosted by Bishop, at a Grand Junction hotel. Wenholz said the mood at the event was “kind of like a revival” and said she felt her safety was in jeopardy at the event. Lindell himself loomed large over the trial: The Mesa County story became national news as Peters spoke at a Lindell event, deemed the “Cyber Symposium,” in South Dakota. She reportedly traveled there via Lindell’s private jet. In 2022, Lindell claimed to have donated $800,000 to Peters’ defense fund. Lindell’s cell phone was seized by the FBI in 2022 (when he was in a Hardee’s drive-through) as part of a federal investigation of the Mesa County breach. Lindell sued, but the suit went nowhere, with the Supreme Court ultimately declining to hear an appeal.
Election-denying former Mesa County, Colorado County Clerk Tina Peters pleaded guilty in election machine breaches.

If every disadvantage has its advantage, we rejoice that The Donald is the Republican nominee.
Mike Lindell no longer needs to REINSTATE him. He can just VOTE for him in November.

Earlier today, I forget what the impetus, I was wondering what happened to Crazy Mike. And, golly, there he is. Sorry bout that. If anybody even listens to him, and even tries to do this shit, it will be marvelous for the Democratic Party. Sitting down? It's God's plan to confuse the electronics people by requesting a mail ballot, and then not using it. Ha. Ha. Then send a picture of the mail ballot to his website. The Lindell Offense Fund Website [link provided]. I guess they try to suck some coins out of you there. Side quest. San Antonio Tx. Bexar County elections dept will only accept hand delivered mail ballots at one downtown office. With photo ID. Usually they count a vote when the USPS delivers a filled mail ballot [already gots my name & address] & check the sig. Waving the form around at a polling site is pointless. They will demand photo ID, scan it in to the laptop, and check the records. The mail ballot that was not received prior is not there. You can do normal vote and keep your mail ballot as a souvenir.

It's basically just Trump's name in the middle, with the names of every single person from the right they could think of, pointing to Trump with arrows.
I'm awed by all the unnecessary work involved.

"In the lawsuit filed in Hennepin County District Court in Minneapolis on Monday, the DHL eCommerce unit alleges that MyPillow is in violation of a contract that requires the Minnesota-based company to pay for all parcel delivery services within 15 days of being billed. The lawsuit says they reached a settlement in May 2023 that required MyPillow to pay $775,000 in 24 monthly installments starting in April of this year.
But the lawsuit alleges that MyPillow has made only partial payments on that settlement, totaling $64,583.34, with the last one received on June 6. DHL says it notified MyPillow that it was in default on July 2. The lawsuit seeks $799,925.59, plus interest and attorney fees."

Mike Lindell’s recent claw machine interview on Jimmy Kimmel was weird, and not just because of the ridiculous format. He appeared to incriminate himself in the Dominion lawsuit at many points.
He laughed when Jimmy pointed out that the whole election fraud/stolen election thing was a farce. Seemed to acknowledge Jimmy was right about him being deranged.
Come on, dude. You are being sued for literally a billion dollars. You might lose everything. And you are not taking this at all seriously.
His lawyers let him do that interview? He needs better lawyers.

Lydia O'Connor at HuffPost:
Former Fox Business host Lou Dobbs has died. He was 78. Former President Donald Trump was the first to reveal the news, posting a tribute to his ally on social media. “The Great Lou Dobbs has just passed away — A friend, and truly incredible Journalist, Reporter, and Talent,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “He understood the World, and what was ‘happening,’ better than others.” “Lou was unique in so many ways, and loved our Country,” Trump continued. “Our warmest condolences to his wonderful wife, Debi, and family. He will be greatly missed!” Fox News Media confirmed the news, saying in a statement: “We are deeply saddened by the passing of Lou Dobbs. An incredible business mind with a gift for broadcasting, Lou helped pioneer cable news into a successful and influential industry.”
Former CNN and Fox Business host Lou Dobbs died at 78. Earlier this year, he joined Lindell TV, owned by serial election denier Mike Lindell.
Dobbs started at CNN at its launch in 1980, and was known for straight-laced economic news reporting during that time. He left CNN to create Space.com in 1999. He was replaced by Willow Bay and future FBN colleague Stuart Varney.
In 2000, he returned to CNN, and this is where his turn towards right-wing populism started, obsessively criticizing immigration and championing the loony conspiracies about Barack Obama’s birth certificate. Dobbs left CNN in 2009.
In 2010 until February 2021, Dobbs went to Fox Business to serve up more of the same that he was known for during his 2nd CNN stint. Once Donald Trump’s 2016 run for President began, he became a massive pro-Trump propaganda pusher.
Dobbs left FBN in February 2021 after being named in Smartmatic’s lawsuit against Fox “News” over the channel’s role in promoting election denialism in the aftermath of the 2020 elections.
