Mark Meadows loses bid to have Georgia case removed to federal court

Raw Story  

In a huge blow to former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, a federal judge has denied his request to have his trial in the Georgia election racketeering case removed to federal court, reported POLITICO's Kyle Cheney. The ruling ensures that Meadows will have his trial held in the same venue as former President Donald Trump and the rest of his co-defendants in the case, brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Had the case been removed to federal court, the charges would not have changed, although the judge and jury pool in the case would have. Meadows is not the only defendant in the Georgia case who sought to get their charges removed to federal court; former DOJ official Jeff Clark and the false electors also moved for the same relief.
