As the months wear on, the diligence of the Georgia grand jury that’s investigating whether former President Donald Trump tried to overturn the state’s 2020 election results has become very clear, Newsweek reports.

In an interview with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, five members of the grand jury spoke on conditions of anonymity, filling a background of eight months of testimony, yet not offering much insight into whether the former president could actually be found guilty.

Of course, a portion of the grand jury’s report was revealed in February. And this includes dozens of high-profile witnesses who testified under oath. Some members of the jury are concerned that they may have lied under oath.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis opened the investigation after it was discovered that Trump made a phone call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in 2021, imploring him to “find” the 11,780 votes that would be needed for him to beat Joe Biden in Georgia.

South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham (R) was one of the bigger fish to testify. Newsweek reports that while he was under oath, Graham tried to figure out Trump’s psyche following his huge loss to Joe Biden.

“[Graham] said that during that time, if somebody had told Trump that aliens came down and stole Trump ballots, that Trump would’ve believed it,” one juror told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Well, Trump is not the brightest bulb in the socket and by this time he’d reached a level of frantic desperation, so yeah, I can see that happening.

But jury foreperson Emily Kohrs, who wasn’t interviewed for the article this time has previously told the publication that “it’s not a short list” for suggested indictments. In the meantime, Kohrs has been subjected to a fair amount of flack following a media blitz in February. This included statements and interviews given to the Associated Press and the New York Times, as well as appearances on CNN and NBC News.

One could say Kohrs has been busy. Enough so that it even caught Trump’s attention. He has described her as “an extremely energetic young woman” who was giving away the jury’s inner workings.

Even so, Kohrs has openly mocked Trump after his ridiculous comments about “total exoneration” and describing this as “fantastic.”

“I just felt like we, as a group, were portrayed as not serious,” said one juror to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “That really bothered me because that’s not how I felt. I took it very seriously. I showed up, did what I was supposed to do, did not do what I was asked not to do, you know?”

Anthony Michael Kreis, an assistant law professor at Georgia State University told Newsweek that despite Kohrs public remarks, the grand jury displayed thoughtfulness “as evidenced by the breadth of matters they looked into and the extraordinary number of witnesses they interviewed.”

“It would be very wrong to pretend otherwise because of either the scant information released from the jury’s report or because of impressions folks came away with after the jury foreperson hit the media circuit,” Kreis said. “Time will tell what happens, but sleeping on the Fulton County investigation is a mistake.”

And the jurors have been appreciative of the fact that they have been a part of an investigation of this significance, involving a former president. They noted they weren’t concerned about the outcome for Trump but were instead, more concerned about doing their duties as Americans.

“I can honestly give a damn of whoever goes to jail, you know, like personally,” one juror noted. “I care more about there being more respect in the system for the work that people do to make sure elections are free and fair.”

“I tell my wife if every person in America knew every single word of information we knew, this country would not be divided as it is right now,” another juror added.

Hopefully, Trump will be indicted soon in this case and if that happens we have this grand jury to thank for their due diligence and hard work.

Maybe Trump will have some aliens to talk to if he winds up in prison.
