President Donald Trump on Thursday renewed his call for freedom for “Patriot” Tina Peters, a former Colorado county elections official jailed by the leftists in the state on their charges of election interference.
She was indicted, convicted, and jailed for allegedly releasing one inactive password to an elections system several years ago.
However, the Democrat government there handed a free pass to Jena Griswold, the Democrat secretary of state in the one-party government after she oversaw her office’s publication online of hundreds of current passwords.
Griswold earned the backing of the Democrat political machine in her failed attempt to remove President Donald Trump from the 2024 presidential ballot, a move that was approved by her own all-Democrat state Supreme Court but reversed by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Continuing the “torture” of Peters will bring bad things to Colorado, Trump promised.
“FREE TINA PETERS, a brave and innocent Patriot who has been tortured by Crooked Colorado politicians, including the big Mail-In Ballot supporting the governor of the State. Let Tina Peters out of jail, RIGHT NOW. She did nothing wrong, except catching the Democrats cheat in the Election. She is an old woman, and very sick. If she is not released, I am going to take harsh measures!!!”
While Peters was convicted under state law, and Trump cannot pardon her in that case, the president does have the power, through the executive branch control of the federal government’s grants, allocations of federal resources and much more, to make her jailors uncomfortable.
The Gateway Pundit noted she was sentenced to nine years in prison last October after she was accused of breaching the Mesa County election systems and leaking Dominion voting machine passwords.
The report said, “But Peters contends that her office had the Dominion machine passwords, which is what Maricopa County successfully argued when they were subpoenaed for Dominion passwords during the Arizona Election audit in 2021.”
During her sentencing, Matthew Barrett, the judge handling her state case, attacked her political speech, and denied her bond.
Peters’ legal team has appealed her case to federal court, challenging the First Amendment violations and asking them to decide whether Tina Peters is being unlawfully imprisoned for her political speech.
Trump recently has added to his agenda of making America great again the discontinuation of “Highly Inaccurate, Very Expensive, and Seriously Controversial VOTING MACHINES, which cost Ten Times more than accurate and sophisticated Watermark Paper.”
The Post Millennial reported what Peters actually was accused of was providing someone with a security pass to review her county’s elections system after she developed suspicions about the veracity of the voting system’s conclusions.
Colorado Attorney General Philip Weiser, another activist Democrat, has asked the judge to dismiss Peters’ petition to be released on bond pending the appeals process. Weiser, while claiming “No one is above the law,” also has been completely inactive regarding any charges against Griswold for her involvement in released passwords.
KREX television in Colorado said Trump already demanded Peters’ release in May, writing, “Tina is an innocent Political Prisoner being horribly and unjustly punished in the form of Cruel and Unusual Punishment.”
The Department of Justice already has warned Colorado it is examining its prosecution, because there are “reasonable concerns” with the state’s attack on Peters.
WND previously reported that Peters “was a conservative in the far-left state, where the all-Democrat state Supreme Court partisanly tried to remove Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot. Where virtually all of the top state leaders in the governor’s office and legislature are virulently anti-Trump.”
Further, it’s where “leftists in population centers like Denver and Boulder openly advocate for Americans’ rights to be violated in order to protect illegal alien criminals. Where abortion was made a state constitutional “right” and the state constitution’s protection for voters against massive overtaxing plans routinely is undermined. For example, Democrat lawmakers, faced with constitutional limits on raising ‘taxes,’ routinely hike them anyway and then simply call them ‘fees.’ For example, state residents who license vehicles and pay taxes have to pay a ‘fee’ for roads and bridges. Visitors to the state using the same roads and bridges don’t pay that ‘fee.’”
Complete Colorado noted at the time there are multiple “missteps” by Griswold that now could come under review.
Colorado Republican Party Chairwoman Brita Horn said, “Our secretary of state gaslights voters with her ‘Gold Standard’ narrative while she oversees leaked passwords. She has no one to blame but herself and her irresponsible team for the investigation. We need the truth about what happens in her department, and in our elections.”
Previously, Griswold earned infamy among elections officials by sending postcards to some 30,000 non-residents, telling them how to register to vote.
In what may end up being related, Judicial Watch said Griswold’s office gave out incorrect numbers for those removed from the state’s registration lists due to address changes. The watchdog organization wanted its lawsuit over the dispute reopened because of the wrong numbers, but a leftist judge in the left-leaning federal court system in Colorado refused permission.
Even earlier, Trump pointed out, “Radical Left Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser ignores illegals committing Violent Crimes like Rape and Murder in his State and, instead, jailed Tina Peters, a 69-year-old Gold Star mother who worked to expose and document Democrat Election Fraud. Tina is an innocent Political Prisoner being horribly and unjustly punished in the form of Cruel and Unusual Punishment. This is a Communist persecution by the Radical Left Democrats to cover up their Election crimes and misdeeds in 2020. The same Democrat Party that flies to El Salvador to try to free an MS-13 Terrorist, is cruelly imprisoning, perhaps for life, a grandmother whose brave and heroic son gave his life for America. Colorado must end this unjust incarceration of an innocent American. I am hereby directing the Department of Justice to take all necessary action to help secure the release of this ‘hostage’ being held in a Colorado prison by the Democrats, for political reasons. FREE TINA PETERS, NOW!”
