Cline’s friend pleads guilty

Shortly after the November 2020 election, in which Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump, Congressman Cline posted this on his campaign Facebook page:

Strangely, it disappeared from Cline’s Facebook feed, but thanks to the magic of screen capture, it’s part of the permanent record.

So here is the latest on Ben Cline’s friend whom he was proud to support:

Former Trump attorney Sidney Powell pleaded guilty Thursday morning in the Georgia election interference case just a day before jury selection in her trial alongside co-defendant Kenneth Chesebro was set to begin.

Powell pleaded guilty to six misdemeanor counts of conspiracy to commit election interference in Fulton County Superior Court as part of a deal reached with prosecutors.

Powell agreed to serve six years of probation and pay a $6,000 fine and $2,700 in restitution to the state of Georgia. She also agreed to submit an apology letter to the citizens of Georgia and to testify at related court proceedings.

Perhaps Cline should choose his friends more wisely.

  1. I would also like to ask him how he can support Jim Jordan, knowing as the world knows, that he didn’t follow up with his athletes’ complaints about the doctor. When you have or had children in athletics, you trust the coaches. This trust was broken and as the athletes testified, he knew. In a normal world, that would have disqualified Jordan from being a congressman, much less a speaker of the house. I do not understand how these people think. ________________________________
