GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - President Trump is calling for former Mesa County Clerk and Recorder Tina Peters to be released.

In a Truth Social post made Thursday, August 22, President Trump said Peters was “a brave and innocent Patriot who has been tortured by Crooked Colorado politicians.”

He goes on to say she is an old woman and is very sick.

President Trump says, “If she is not released, I am going to take harsh measures!!!”

Tina Peters is a 70-year-old grandmother and gold star mom, who has no criminal record. She was sentenced for 9 years and jailed even while appealing convictions for nonviolent crimes that involve observing a Dominion voting system upgrade.That was her job. Her imprisonment is believed to be unprecedented in modern U.S. history. Judge Matthew Barrett stated she should be imprisoned because her speech was a danger to the community. Free Tina Peters now!
See her donate link at the end of this video.

What a F'ing crook. The evidence found her guilty, just like your Jan 6'ers. There is no system of justice left in the US. Thanks a lot John Roberts.
