John Eastman advised Pennsylvania state Rep. Russ Diamond on challenging that state’s results
It was during that visit to Philadelphia that Eastman’s role in advising Trump on how to remain in office began, The New York Times reported last year. Eastman was in town for an academic conference, the newspaper reported, when he met with Trump’s team at a hotel as they were putting together a legal brief to challenge the election results in Pennsylvania.
Eastman could not be reached by The Denver Post for comment Monday. He previously has defended his actions in advising Trump, and has threatened to sue CU for what he characterizes as retaliation “for constitutionally protected First Amendment activities.” Eastman, who spoke at Trump’s rally before the attack on the Capitol, was relieved of his public-facing duties following Jan. 6 and is no longer affiliated with the university.
Some of the emails from Eastman’s CU Boulder account were turned over to the Jan. 6 committee, including exchanges in which Eastman advised Diamond on how to challenge his state’s presidential electors. In the emails, Eastman offered edits to legislative resolutions and suggested ways in which Pennsylvania lawmakers could seat an alternate set of electors after Joe Biden won the state — and with it, the presidency — in the 2020 election.
