A former Wisconsin judge, James Troupis, said during a Dec. 16 federal Senate hearing on election fraud that intimidation from the left has prevented lawyers and judges from receiving and hearing election fraud cases.
Troupis is currently representing the Trump team in election fraud legal matters in Wisconsin.
“We have to acknowledge that the court system has been threatened with Deeply Intimidated by the left, just as lawyers have been intimidated.” “It’s a sad, sad state of affairs,” Trumpis told lawmakers present at a Dec. 16 hearing of the federal Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
The Senate hearing was designed to hear about election “irregularities” in the 2020 election. During the hearing, several witnesses testified about a string of election fraud in several contested states.
Their allegations were supported by evidence from numerous other witnesses, whistleblowers and data experts that has emerged in recent weeks alleging irregularities and election fraud in these battleground states. Much of the evidence was presented through affidavits in lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign or third parties, as well as at Republican-hosted hearings in state legislatures.
At the Senate hearing, Trumpis explained as a witness why he decided to get on board and challenge the election results on behalf of the campaign when many lawyers refused to take over. He said he believes many prominent law firms did not want to get involved in the election litigation for fear of retaliation from the left.
“One of the reasons I was called in was because almost every major law firm in this country and in this city refused to represent the president. Not because his claims lack legal merit (we’ve certainly proven there is), but because the environment created by the left intimidates the lawyers so they can’t be here (to represent Trump). Those big law firm lawyers aren’t here precisely because they’ve been ordered by their governing boards and others to say, ‘You can’t take those cases. The reason is, our clients, or the Democratic Party, or the incoming administration will hold a grudge, and they will hold that against you.'” Trumpis said.
“As a former judge, I’m outraged by that.” He said.
Earlier, other attorneys representing the president and his campaign also revealed they were harassed or threatened after deciding to take on the election case.
One of those lawyers, Linda Kern, had to be placed under official protection after receiving “hurtful threats” and was forced to withdraw from a case in Pennsylvania. Kern revealed in November that she “has been subjected to ongoing harassment, including abusive emails, phone calls, physical and financial threats, and even charges of ‘treason’ … all because of her representation of the U.S. presidential campaign in this lawsuit.”
Jenna Ellis, legal counsel for the Trump campaign, revealed that she received numerous phone calls and threatening messages, some even threatening her personal safety.
In an exclusive interview with Breitbart News on Nov. 25, Ellis said she received hundreds of threatening private letters and messages. Some were overt, such as threats to disbar her and encouraging people to file complaints against her as a lawyer. Others were more direct and rude.
Despite the difficulties, many Trump campaign lawyers and attorneys for third-party lawsuits are moving forward with their legal challenges to election fraud until concerns about potential fraud are addressed transparently and independently.
However, many of these cases have been dismissed by judges on procedural grounds, such as lack of standing to bring the lawsuit.
In a recent interview with the English-language Epoch Times, Ellis said the battle is not over and that the president can still continue legal action.
