Evidence of Trump's motive and intent in Detroit election interference case: Special counsel Jack Smith plans to present text messages and other evidence at Trump's trial to prove knowledge, motive, and intent to subvert election results in Detroit.
Special counsel Jack Smith intends to present evidence at the upcoming March trial in the DC election interference case against Donald Trump to demonstrate Trump's motive, intent, preparation, knowledge, and common plan regarding efforts to stop the vote count in Detroit during the 2020 election. This evidence includes text messages between a campaign employee and an attorney, which the trial team believes will show the defendants' knowledge of unfavorable election results and their intent to subvert them. The team is required to provide advanced notice of this evidence under the federal rules of evidence 404 b, and it's particularly interesting that they're specifically mentioning the defendant and a coconspirator's knowledge and motive in this context. While the name Boris Epstein hasn't been explicitly mentioned in the filing, Michael Popak, a legal analyst, has identified him as a political consultant and operative for Trump who encouraged a riot to stop the vote count in Detroit after learning of Trump's election loss. This new information adds to the growing body of evidence against Trump and his associates in the election interference case.
Boris Epshteyn's Role in Trump's Election Interference: Boris Epshteyn, a Trump campaign employee, encouraged obstruction efforts and was listed as a coconspirator in the indictment for his role in Trump's election interference attempts, including the fake electors and pressure campaigns to delay the peaceful transfer of power.
Boris Epshteyn, a campaign employee of Donald Trump, encouraged rioting and other forms of obstruction when he learned that the vote count was trending in favor of Joe Biden. This information is revealed in messages from the special counsel, but a large, redacted section with potentially damaging details is currently hidden. Around the same time, untrained individuals flooded the TCF Center and made illegitimate challenges to the vote count. Trump and his team, including Epshteyn, falsely claimed problems in Detroit, but the real issue was Trump's own efforts to disrupt the election results. The special counsel's motion argues that this evidence demonstrates Trump, his coconspirators, and agents had knowledge that they had lost the election and the intent and motive to obstruct and overturn the legitimate results. Boris Epshteyn is listed as a coconspirator in the indictment, along with John Eastman, Ken Jezsepero, Sydney Powell, Jeffrey Clark, and Rudy Giuliani. All of them were involved in the fake electors and other pressure campaigns to delay the peaceful transfer of power.

Boris Epshteyn's Unique Role in Capitol Riots Indictment: Despite being identified in Capitol riots indictment, Boris Epshteyn, a Trump campaign employee, hasn't been indicted himself due to his close relationship with Trump and involvement in fraudulent elector certificates efforts.
Boris Epshteyn, a political consultant and campaign employee for the Trump campaign, found himself in a unique position in the January 6th Capitol riots indictment. Despite being identified as a campaign employee in the indictment, Epshteyn was also involved in efforts to submit fraudulent elector certificates in targeted states and attempted to use the chaos of the riots to delay the certification process. Epshteyn's name appeared in emails between Rudy Giuliani and other conspirators regarding attorneys who could assist in the fraudulent elector effort. However, it's unclear why Epshteyn has not been indicted himself, given his close relationship with Trump and his involvement in the events leading up to and during the riots. Epshteyn has been present at every major Trump event since the start of the football season and has even brought in the criminal lawyers currently representing Trump. The question remains, how has Boris Epshteyn managed to avoid being an actual indicted co-conspirator in the Georgia or District of Columbia cases?
Impact of elections on ongoing investigations: Elections can halt investigations and impact justice, so it's crucial to vote for candidates who support the rule of law
The ongoing investigation into the events leading up to the Capitol riot could lead to additional indictments, including for Boris Epshteyn, who has not been charged yet. The importance of elections was emphasized, as the outcome of the election can significantly impact ongoing investigations and prosecutions. If a person opposed to these investigations wins the election, the investigations could be halted, and those involved could potentially escape justice. Therefore, it's crucial to vote for candidates who support the rule of law and the pursuit of justice. The special counsel's office will continue to investigate and prosecute until the election in November, and the right person is elected to ensure that justice is served and investigations can continue.
