Former Trump attorney and god-fearing Christian warrior Jenna Ellis made headlines back in August when she posed for her mugshot at the Fulton County jailhouse in Atlanta, Georgia wearing a defiant smile on her heavily made-up face.
She was one of the 19 co-defendants, along with Donald Trump, in the election interference case brought on by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
But she’s not smiling anymore.
This morning, the 38-year-old delivered a tear-eyed confession in Fulton County Superior Court, pleading guilty to one count of aiding and abetting false statements and writings.
“As an attorney who is also a Christian, I take my responsibilities as a lawyer very seriously and I endeavor to be a person of sound moral and ethical character in all of my dealings,” Ellis read from a prepared statement.
“I believed that challenging the results on behalf of President Trump should be pursued in a just and legal way,” she added, but “I failed to do my due diligence.”
“If I knew then what I know now, I would have declined to represent Donald Trump in these post-election challenges,” she said. “I look back on this whole experience with deep remorse.”
Ellis first started working for Trump in 2019 as a senior legal adviser for his re-election campaign then stayed around to challenge the legitimacy of the 2020 election results after he lost, often tagging alongside Rudy Giuliani at press conferences, who, BTW, she also threw under the bus during her confession today.
Prior to landing a deal with prosecutors, Ellis was broke and crowdfunding online to pay for her legal defense as she stared down two very scary felony charges–one of solicitation of violation of oath by public officer and the other of violating Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO)–which carried a potential sentence of 20 years in prison.

Trump denies Sidney Powell was ever his lawyer… but the internet remembers forever
Powell pleaded guilty last week to charges she faced in the election interference case in Georgia.
Ellis is the latest one of the ex-president’s co-defendants to take a plea deal with prosecutors in the case, following Sidney Powell and two others. She was sentenced to five years of probation plus 100 hours of community service and ordered to pay $5,000 in restitution as well as write a letter of apology to the citizens of Georgia.
Oh, and she’ll have to testify against Trump and any of the other co-defendants who still haven’t made plea deals when they go to trial next year. 😬 😬 😬

Prior to today’s guilty plea in Georgia, Ellis, who has called LGBTQ+ people (who she sometimes refers to as “LGBTQIAAblahblahblah”) “sinners”, “vile”, and “abominable”, was censured by legal officials in Colorado after she admitted to making 10 “misrepresentations” during Trump’s attempts to stay in power after losing to Joe Biden in 2020.
Trump has yet to comment on yet another of his lawyers pleading guilty and agreeing to testify against him in court, but we’re sure his complete denial of ever meeting/knowing/hearing of/talking to/being in the same room as Ellis will come in due time.

All these people need to lose their law licenses, lose their right to vote, lose all their financial holdings, and forever live in the gutter never being allowed one iota of redemption.

Agreed

Instead they’re being leveraged to testify against Failure 45. But I still think that probation + fine is WAY too lenient for felonies of this magnitude. They ALL should get jail time.
Regardless, I’m still in awe of the masterful prosecutorial work by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis!!! Whatever you say, Fani! Make it work, girl!

I love her too, Bachy. Of course, when ever I hear her name, I hear this!
Fanny (Be Tender With My Love)
First I rise, then I fall
Seems like you don’t want the love
Of this man at all
And it’s sure been a lonely time
Right up to the time I met you
So if you take a love like mine (ooh)
Be tender with my love
You know how easy it is to hurt me
Fanny, be tender with my love
‘Cause it’s all that I’ve got
And my love won’t desert me
So you say to yourself, boy
You’re out of your brain
Do you think I’m gonna stand here
All night in the rain?
And it’s the start of a love affair
The moment when I first met you
And if you want I’ll take you there (ooh)
Be tender with my love
You know how easy it is to break me
Fanny, be tender with my love
‘Cause it’s all that I’ve got
And my love won’t forsake me (ooh)
With my love
Our love will seal it together
Oh, with our love
……….and so on and so forth, it goes on forever, like the stench of Donald.

Crystal Morgan continues to be sentenced to 5 years in prison for casting a provisional ballot that was not counted in Texas. Probation is too good for these people that created this situation.

Thank you for mentioning Crystal Morgan. She is an actual political prisoner being held in a federal prison, but gets minimal coverage from our media.

It’s hard to figure out if she is still out on bond while this new appeal is going through. It’s amazing that they continue to try to justify her prosecution. Texas will never admit they’re wrong, even if an innocent person is sent to the electric chair –

You forgot to add blonde CHUD. Here, I’ll do it:

TRUMP:
Yes, it is a Witch Hunt and it appears that the Witch got caught. Being dropped off Fortune’s list was just the beginning. I remember those full pages that you put in New York newspapers about the Central Park 5 back in 1989 and how you NEVER retracted your statements after all were EXONERATED. Karma is a Bitch, isn’t it?

Yet another member of the MAGA coup gang folds like a wet napkin! After you wipe those fake tears away, sing like a bluebird about your corrupt, treasonous cult leader Don the Con, Jenna. Tell the full story, so he ends up where he belongs, behind prison bars!
BTW, is Queerty going to report on racist MAGA porn actor Sergeant Miles pleading guilty to January 6 attempted coup charges?

Sydney Powell, days after pleading guilty, is back on social media promoting “rigged” election BS and all sorts of conspiracy theories. I don’t know what her plea agreement says exactly, but she may be jeopardizing it; what are the terms of her probation? I think they should haul her a*s back into court.
Let’s see if Jenna Ellis follows Powell’s lead. If so, the next round of sentences should be much more severe!

Lock them up!!!
