Ginni Thomas Corresponded with ‘Coup Memo’ Author John Eastman: Report

Ginni Thomas, the far right-wing activist and lobbyist who is spouse to a sitting U.S. Supreme Court Justice, corresponded with John Eastman, a now-former law professor, far right-wing activist, author of the infamous “coup memo,” and the current chairman of the anti-LGBTQ group National Organization For Marriage.
The House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack has obtained that email correspondence, The Washington Post reveals Wednesday evening in an exclusive report, citing three people involved in the committee’s investigation.
“The emails show that Thomas’s efforts to overturn the election were more extensive than previously known, two of the people said,” The Post reports. They declined to provide further details, but the Committee is now “discussing whether to spend time during their public hearings exploring Ginni Thomas’s role in the attempt to overturn the outcome of the 2020 election.”
Thomas also emailed 29 Arizona state lawmakers, attempting to pressure them to help overturn the election by sending an “alternate slate” of electors. She also had a months-long text message conversation with then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.
Eastman is seen as instrumental in Donald Trump’s efforts to block Congress from certifying the Electoral College count of the states’ votes on January 6.
Thomas has worked to overturn a free and fair presidential election at both the state and federal levels, while her spouse voted to block the American public from learning about her involvement in those efforts.
