Pro-Trump lawyer and conspiracy monger L. Lin Wood called for Vice President Mike Pence to “face execution by firing squad” for “treason” after Pence’s attorneys challenged a lawsuit from Texas Rep. Louie Gohmert to force the vice president to block the counting of electoral votes for presidential elect Joe Biden when Congress met to ratify the results of the election.

Wood’s quote was so outrageous it was by denounced by Jenna Ellis, an attorney for the Trump campaign, who tweeted: “I do not support the statements from Attorney Lin Wood. I support the rule of law and the U.S. Constitution.”

Ellis’s comment, while admirable, is ironic given that she was indicted and faces trial for her role in attempting to overturn Georgia’s 2020 presidential election results.
After Biden won the presidential election, Wood claimed, without evidence that Trump had won the state with 70 percent of the vote. In addition, he said that Democrats, China, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, George Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, and Dominion Voting Systems, the company that manufactured voting machines, had conspired to steal the election from Trump.
Did I mention he did not provide evidence – any evidence?
No evidence at all.
None.
Nada.
Wood, often working with attorney Sidney Powell brought a number of lawsuits on behalf of Trump challenging the validity of the presidential election.

This accomplished little other than giving judges some much-need laughter.
Twitter suspended Wood’s account after he incited his 800 thousand followers to storm the capitol on Wednesday, January 6. Wood’s Twitter has since permanently suspended him.

Wood charged that Biden won the presidential election because of fraudulent voting but couldn’t actually identify anyone who voting illegally.
But there were those who were investigated for voting illegally – and, this is going to shock you …
Lin Wood.
Goergia’s GOP Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office confirmed that it was investigating Wood after an Atlanta television station found that Wood had voted in Georgia even though he was living in South Carolina.
In July 2023, Wood relinquished his law license in July 2023 — in order to avoid the public humiliation of being disbarred, CBS News reported.
