MAGA lawyer named as state's witness in Georgia case swears he hasn't flipped on Trump: "Zero truth"
Election fraud conspiracy theorist Lin Wood was listed as one of the people serving as "witnesses" in a GA filing

PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 20, 2023 2:02PM (EDT)

 

Wood, however, denies any suggestion he has flipped on the former president. 

 

"There's zero truth to that," Wood told The Hill on Wednesday. "I'm always willing to go in under subpoena, I'll go testify and answer their questions, honestly, like I did in the grand jury."

In an interview with The Hill, Wood said he’s simply responding to a subpoena.

 

“There’s zero truth to that,” Wood said when asked if he had turned against Trump.

 

A special purpose grand jury that heard evidence in the probe for months had recommended Wood be indicted, but prosecutors ultimately opted against charging him with Trump and 18 others last month. Wood previously indicated that he had been subpoenaed to appear before the special grand jury.

Wood is cooperating with the prosecutor in exchange for not being indicted. That's called "flipping". 

 

He has told them what he will testify about, it doesn't matter how he sugarcoats it for gullible MAGA types.

 

This guy is a grifter, but the MAGiots don't understand he is grifting *them*.

Lin Wood: ‘I didn’t flip on President Trump’

5 hours ago

 

Former Atlanta attorney Lin Wood pushed back Wednesday on the notion that he would testify against Donald Trump in Fulton County’s racketeering case.

 

Wood’s name turned up in a new filing by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis naming him as a potential witness in the case, leading to speculation he would testify against the former president.

“I didn’t flip on President Trump. That’s just pure nonsense,” Wood told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “I wouldn’t have any knowledge to flip on him.”

 

Wood said he has been told he will be subpoenaed by the prosecution, but he has not had any conversations with Willis about what questions he will be asked.

Of course he's flipped no matter how much he denies it:

 

Georgia Has a New Witness Against Trump—and It’s a Big One

One of Donald Trump’s former lawyers on Wednesday denied flipping against him in the Georgia indictment, despite new court documents revealing otherwise.

 

"I did not have Lin Wood flipping on my bingo card," prominent national security attorney Bradley Moss reacted on X, the social media website formerly known as Twitter.

[jerrymahoney]

The actual court filing involves Lin Wood as a potential witness in the Powell case when he had also previously represented Powell in several ill-fated lawsuits.

 

*****************

The DA's office said it identified six attorneys who are representing various defendants but have also had previous involvement in the case or related matters, including by previously representing witnesses for the state -- a situation they say could result in those witnesses being subject to cross examination by their former attorneys.

 

"The state has worked diligently to identify any potential conflicts of interest concerning attorneys who currently represent Defendants in this case and who previously represented material witnesses or parties before the special purpose grand jury and other prost-election proceedings," the filing states.

And this would maybe come up if Lin Wood was called as a prosecution witness:

 

At the end of December 2020, Wood launched a series of baseless allegations on Twitter: he implied that Chief Justice John Roberts was involved in the death of Justice Antonin Scalia, suggested that Roberts was a child trafficker, declared that the deceased Jeffrey Epstein was actually alive, and that Epstein could reveal the truth about Roberts. At the start of January 2021, Wood declared his belief that Vice President Mike Pence would "face execution by firing squad" for "treason", after Pence's lawyers fought a lawsuit which was aimed at making Pence refuse to count electoral votes for Joe Biden. Wood also called for Roberts and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to be arrested for treason. Wood was criticized for these comments, and responded by insisting that he is not insane.

Well he’s named in the court filing as a prosecutor witness.

 

Maybe he’s concerned Trump’s extremist supporters might be directed to his home or family.

OK you win. He's flipped. BTW here's your witness:

 

On January 11, 2021, Delaware Superior Court Judge Craig A. Karsnitz gave Wood's social media postings in his published reasons for an order revoking Wood's right to appear before the court.

 

Karsnitz described the allegations about (CJ) Roberts as "too disgusting and outrageous to repeat," and stated that he had "no doubt" that Wood's tweets (along with "many other things") played a role in inciting the attack on the Capitol that occurred a few days before.

He is a potential witness. He is not a witness until he has been sworn in in court to testify as a witness.

 

And that might never happen as his credibility could easily be called in question.

 

And "here's your witness" was just court lingo for when one attorney turns a witness over to the opposing attorney for cross-examination.

L. Lin Wood is on record of being out of his mind.

 

He had to be listed in the filing because he was co-counsel or attorney-of-record for Sidney Powell.

"After Avila’s performance, Trump walked over to congratulate him, but then said to Milley, within earshot of several witnesses, 'Why do you bring people like that here?

'Who revels in such cruelty?' Conservatives flatten Trump after reports of wounded vet comment (msn.com)

July 15, 2015

 

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump took an ongoing feud with Sen. John McCain to a new level today, mocking the former GOP nominee for having been a prisoner of war and calling him a "loser" for failing to win the White House in 2008.

 

"He was a war hero because he was captured," Trump said at the 2015 Family Leadership Summit in Ames, Iowa.

 

"I like people who weren't captured," the current Republican front-runner told political consultant Frank Luntz, who hosted the event.

If the above comments on McCain didn't turn off the would-be faithful pre-election 2016, I don't see how the current brouhaha will.

 

I wish it were that easy.
