Republican state Attorneys General have a public advocacy organization which includes as its fund raising arm, The Rule of Law Defense Fund. Interesting name, huh? Turns out the this organization did some serious fund raising based on its sponsorship of President Trump fascist rally that preceded the insurrectionist mobs assault on the United States Capitol. The group sent out a robocall encouraging participation in Trump's rally and touting their sponsorship of the event.
The fundraising arm of a group led by Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr called on supporters of President Donald Trump to march to the U.S. Capitol Wednesday to “stop the steal” following the “Save America” rally that preceded the deadly riots in Washington.
The recorded call encouraged Trump supporters to go to the Capitol Wednesday to demand that Congress block certification of the 2020 election, which Joe Biden won, including the results in Georgia.
“At 1 p.m., we will march to the Capitol building and call on Congress to stop the steal,” the robocall said. “We are hoping patriots like you will join us to continue to fight to protect the integrity of our elections.”
The call concludes, “This call is paid for and authorized by the Rule of Law Defense Fund.”
So, the group formed by Republican leaders responsible for the rule of law was advocating a seditionist event that resulted in an attack on a Constitutionally mandated event in the United State Capitol. An attack that was intended to overturn the results of a national election with the goal of leaving Trump in power.
