Mark Meadows Pleads Not Guilty To Georgia Charges

USA Today reports:

Mark Meadows, the former White House chief of staff, pleaded not guilty in a court filing Tuesday to Georgia racketeering charges alleging he tried to help Trump steal the 2020 election.

Meadows and 18 co-defendants were indicted in Fulton County on Aug. 14 on a combined 41 charges. By entering a plea through a court filing, he avoided needing to appear Sept. 6 at a scheduled arraignment hearing. Meadows remains free on $100,000 bond pending trial.

Meadows acknowledged he has discussed the charges with his lawyer, James Durham, and waived his right to an arraignment hearing. Meadows continues to fight in federal court to move his case from Fulton County Superior Court by arguing his former federal job should protect him from state level charges.
