Trump-linked lawyer John Eastman pushed Republican lawmakers in Pennsylvania to recalculate the state's 2020 popular vote to “help provide some cover” to advance pro-Trump electors, according to newly released emails.

Eastman presented a plan to a Pennsylvania state lawmaker to toss tens of thousands of absentee ballots in the state that arrived after the statutory deadline and had signature verification violations in an attempt to put then-President Donald Trump in the lead in the state, the newly released emails revealed.

In the email to Diamond, Eastman argued that Republican legislatures could reference their concerns with the state's absentee ballot processes. The retabulation would be used to defend replacing then-candidate Joe Biden's electors with pro-Trump electors. Here's John Eastman straight-up saying PA should send Trump electors by not actually counting votes, but pro-rating them after excluding a bunch. pic.twitter.com/UVpJJQ9iLyDiamond said the email exchange came while the two were bouncing ideas around but noted that not every idea was pursued.“Professor Eastman was but one of many individuals I interacted with in the aftermath of the 2020 general election,” Diamond told the Washington Examiner.
