From someone who knows about voter fraud, Meadows isn't 'above the law.'

Lanisha Bratcher Jones didn’t mean to do something wrong. She just didn’t know.

In 2019, Jones was one of four Hoke County residents charged with felony voter fraud from the 2016 election after ballots were cross-referenced with criminal records. Jones had served time in prison for a felony and was out on probation. Under North Carolina law, she wasn’t allowed to vote.

No one told her that when she registered.

“I know what I did was for a good cause,” Jones said over the phone this week, getting choked up explaining why she wanted to vote. “You want to see that change, especially in your neighborhood.”

but maybe DOJ needs an air tight case, and maybe DOJ is afraid of having to provide discovery to Meadow's lawyers?

Day 89 since the select committee sent DOJ the Meadows criminal referral. Mark Meadows is off base, he was a Trump cabinet member, indicting him would appear to be partisan.
