There is a Wisconsin connection to President Trump’s latest indictment. The special counsel’s office yesterday indicted the former president for how he and his team handled his loss in 2020.
The connection runs through a group of people in Wisconsin who signed-up to be alternate electors. The idea was to have a pro-Trump team ready to go if somehow the election was overturned. The special counsel says those electrons were part of a scheme to defraud the United States. The indictment refers to the idea as the ‘Wisconsin Memo.’ While the Trump indictment mentions the Wisconsin electors, no one in the state has been charged with any crimes related to the case.
