The former president and several co-defendants face racketeering charges in Georgia over their attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Colton Moore, outlined his “foolproof plan” for the bill during an appearance on Steve Bannon’s podcast back in November, claiming “all we need is 29 votes of 33 Republicans and we could get this done and we would set Trump free.” In September, Colton was ousted from the state GOP caucus for his attempt to defund Fani Willis’s office. In August, he predicted civil war if Trump goes to trial.
