Trump's Legal Troubles Deepen as Powell and Chesebro Plead Guilty

Guilty pleas from Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell, two key allies in Donald Trump's Georgia election interference case, raise the stakes for the former president and potentially put pressure on other defendants to flip. Chesebro pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit filing false documents, providing an inside account of the scheme to recruit fake electors for Trump. Powell pleaded guilty to misdemeanors associated with tampering with election equipment. Their testimonies could bolster the government's evidence in the federal election meddling case against Trump. The trial date for Trump in Georgia remains uncertain, but the pleas may expedite the process.
