Shirkey Jan. 6 committee deposition reveals details of Trump calls, White House visit.
.
"By now, Michiganders know Republican state legislative leaders rebuffed former President Donald Trump's overtures to interfere in the 2020 election. We know Trump invited them to the White House, tweeted about them and eventually threw them under the bus with his followers. ...
.
"'Spam risk Egypt': When the call came, Chatfield reportedly explained, the phone would indicate it was "spam risk Egypt." That means it's the president, Shirkey remembers Chatfield explaining. The speaker said Trump wanted the legislative leaders to join him at the White House. They didn't know exactly why, Shirkey said.
.
" "Spam risk Egypt" popped up on Shirkey's phone a little after 6 p.m. on Nov. 18, 2020. It was a Wednesday, about two weeks after the election, in which Biden received about 154,000 more votes in Michigan than Trump. ...
.
[Very long, detailed article] [Typical Trump pressure campaign about fraud, etc.]
.
" "I was tired of hearing all of these loosely calculated claims and allegations but *****no substance to back them up,"***** Shirkey elaborated. "Something as serious as this, *****it was my strong personal feeling that we were destroying the country***** by talking like this *****without having something to follow it up with***** [i.e., evidence] and creating unnecessary doubt across the country." ...
.
" "It was a pretty high pressure process, having these gentlemen come to our offices or invite us into one of their homes and pressing pretty hard for — you heard the phrase 'do the right thing,' " Shirkey told investigators. ...
.
"The third call from Trump came in the early evening on Nov. 25, 2020, as Shirkey sat at the dining room table. He told his wife Trump was on the phone again, and she came over to sit with him. At some point, Shirkey mentioned to Trump that his wife was also with him, and the president asked to speak with her. ...
.
"Trump called Shirkey one last time. It was on Dec. 14, the same day Electoral College delegates met at the Michigan State Capitol to certify Biden's victory in the state over Trump. ...
.
"Within an hour of sending these tweets, Trump's assistant emailed Shirkey a copy of the so-called forensic investigation into alleged voter fraud in Antrim County. A human error temporarily showed Biden won the heavily conservative northern Michigan county, but a subsequent lawsuit served as a vessel to peddle a wide array of misinformation about election results nationwide. "I absolutely recall not looking at (the report)," Shirkey told investigators, about the document sent to him by the president. ...
.
[More Trump pressure; more Sharkey tweets about the election being fair and accurate]
.
"Shortly thereafter, *****Trump shared Shirkey's personal cellphone number in a public social media post.***** Shirkey said it was Jan. 3. He was on vacation in Florida at the time and didn't directly see the president's message. But a staff member told him what happened, and soon the messages started streaming in. Eventually, he says he received more than 4,000 text messages.
.
"By Jan. 6, Shirkey says he and his wife were back home. In the days immediately after the attack, Shirkey was recorded multiple times suggesting some aspects of the assault on the Capitol were a "hoax" and "staged." He didn't mention that to the congressional investigators. Instead, *****Shirkey said as he and his wife watched the riot at the U.S. Capitol unfold, they held hands and cried.***** "
What’s your bottom line here, Imp?
Trump's use of BURNER PHONE to secretly try to overthrow the 2020 election has not come up on P&R before. The reports of that did come out a few years ago (but not posted to P&R). The recent release of court filings in the DC case afforded another opportunity to remind MAGAs and others of Trump's attempts to HIDE and DISGUISE his attempts to steal the election in 2020 ... and his willingness to "throw you under the bus" if you do not obey his commands or grovel at his feet.

Thanks for the summary. I know you like to post long form with lots of citations, but a short bottom line up front would be appreciated in future posts.
imp - “Trump's use of BURNER PHONE to secretly try to overthrow the 2020 election has not come up on P&R before.”
It has come up on the P&R board and not only that it was you imp the woke wimp who brought it up.
Yes the proof is linked.
Now let’s see you try to get out of this lie. Lie about lying? Cover it up?
We all would like to watch you wiggle, twist and squirm trying to get out of this one.

Yes, I did previously post about Trump LYING about his use of burner phones. I should have been more specific about THIS SPECIFIC example of a burner phone and the use of a pre-agreed upon code to display "Spam risk Egypt" on the recipient's phone. "Spam risk Egypt" was not posted about previously.
.
And then there is the CONTENT of the conversations and pressure campaign on Republican officials in Michigan to change the result from Biden to Trump. That was not previously posted to P&R.
.
In re: the DC case, if these phone calls were "official acts" as POTUS, why did Trump use BURNER PHONES to talk with election officials? ... Because they were NOT "official acts" of POTUS.
You clearly posted that it did not come up on the P&R board and in the next sentence said not posted to P&R. I proved you lied. It is that simple.
You are humiliating yourself in an attempt to divert distort and distract from the fact you lied
Your specific this and specific that is pure bullshit in a dishonest attempt to save face. You failed.
You are just not man enough to have the courage, honor and integrity to admit you got caught lying
Learn how to read:
.
I acknowledged the error when I wrote: "Yes, I did previously post about Trump LYING about his use of burner phones."
.
Would you have preferred, "Yes, followme is correct in that I did previously post about Trump LYING about his use of burner phones."
.
I searched "Spam risk Egypt" and "Egypt." My OP is the first post about "Spam risk Egypt" secret burner phones on P&R.
SwallowMeat and his righty clown posse NEVER admit a mistake despite continually lying and fucking up. But if YOU admit error they'll never let you forget it.
What hypocrites.
Imp is a textbook cultist. No normal person posts or talks like he does. Unless they're a cult leader. I'm telling you, this guy is NOT right. AT......ALL!!!!
His obsession with Trump is disturbing. I mean that quite literally. Completely obsessed.
It has just come out in the past week in its full details. And the bottom line is only hard to see if you're a dyed-in-the-wool political hack: Trump is guilty as sin of election fraud.
And what does "Cut & Pasted" have to do with it? Is the story accurate? Oh, right. A political hack wouldn't care.
That article is from December 2022. That is just a couple of months shy of two years. He didn’t cite any new info.
Protip Nicky, if you’re going to shoot at among the most accurate posters on the P&R forum, don’t miss! 😝

I simply said there was new information that's just come out. Which is quite correct. I was referring to the huge trove of data released barely a week ago by Judge Chutkan. And there is quite a bit of new information in it, some of it apparently relating to the Michigan election officials. Why should I limit my comments to imp's link when the subject is actually broader? Also, my only reference to imp's article was about your calling it "cut and pasted."
Protip for ChicKenShit: if you're going to come after me, do try and read and comprehend what I actually wrote. And please stop referring to yourself as "among the most accurate posters" here when you can't get your story straight
PS: In that vein why did you pull your post and correct it? Were there even more errors in it than the above, Goofy?
often ends up biting him in the ass. Imp made no reference at all to the recent info release from the judge in Trump’s DC case. Nicky’s said it was new info, but only brought up the judge’s action in his weak rebuttal.
Since when does ChicKie decide the rules here about what references can be made? Unless you have the intellect of a rutabaga, you should be able to know that what I posted related quite closely to the OP. Go play board cop somewhere else. But you're more suiting to playing our Most Prominent Political Hack.
