DETROIT (AP) — A federal judge considering whether to order sanctions against some of former President Donald Trump’s lawyers spent hours Monday drilling into details about an unsuccessful lawsuit that challenged Michigan’s 2020 election results. The lawsuit alleging widespread fraud was eventually dropped after the judge found nothing but “speculation and conjecture” that votes for Trump somehow were destroyed or switched to votes for Joe Biden, who won Michigan by 2.8 percentage points. Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and the city of Detroit now want the plaintiffs and a raft of attorneys, including Trump allies Sidney Powell and L. Lin Wood, to face the consequences of pursuing what they call frivolous claims, the first effort to wrench fines or other penalties.More Related News
