Two Arizona Republicans recruited by allies of former President Donald J. Trump to join an effort to keep him in office after he lost the 2020 election grew so concerned about the plan that they told lawyers working on it that they feared their actions could be seen as treason, according to emails reviewed by The New York Times.

The use of the word underscored how well aware at least some of Mr. Trump’s allies were that they were undertaking truly extraordinary steps to keep him in office, so much so that they risked being seen as betraying their country.

One person working on the plan, the Arizona-based lawyer Jack Wilenchik, conceded in emails that the Electoral College votes the campaign was working to organize “aren’t legal under federal law” and repeatedly referred to them as “fake,” The Times has reported.
Seems as though convicting Wilenchick of conspiracy to overthrow the government and filing false official documents should be a relative walk in the park.
A whole lot of these people, if there is any justice in this country, should end up doing time in a Federal slammer.

Some of the soldiers are being marched off to jail, but it remains to be seen if the "general" himself will pay.
