Jenna Ellis, a senior legal adviser on President Donald Trump’s campaign team, took to Twitter on Friday night to disavow Wood’s claim that the vice president is guilty of “treason” and could be slapped with the death penalty, stating: “To be clear: I do not support the statements from Attorney Lin Wood. I support the rule of law and the US Constitution.”
Hours earlier, Wood posted a lengthy thread alleging that a shadowy cabal of “globalists” had plotted to steal the 2020 election from Trump, consisting of the Chinese Communist Party, Democrats, the CIA, Microsoft founder Bill Gates and progressive bankroller George Soros – as well as “the Republicans.”
“When arrests for treason begin, put Chief Justice John Roberts, VP Mike Pence [and] Mitch McConnell at [the] top of list,” he went on – apparently angry that Pence’s lawyers challenged a lawsuit seeking to allow the VP to disqualify electoral college votes when they are officially counted later this month, which has since been shot down in court.
Wood’s posts have grown more erratic in recent weeks, often combining his election-related commentary with religious references and claims resembling those of the QAnon community, which maintains that global elites oversee a massive pedophile ring and engage in Satanic rituals. In the aftermath of his “firing squad” remarks on Friday night, the attorney said he was receiving an “increased volume of death threats,” quipping: “Was it something I said?”
