The Wheels of Justice for Tina Peters Are Turning Slowly in Court

The wheels of justice for Tina Peters are turning slowly in court.
Guest post by Martel Maxim.
On July 22nd, a Habeas Corpus hearing was held in the Denver Federal Courthouse. US District Court Chief Magistrate Judge Scott T. Varholak presided to determine if Judge Matthew Barrett committed reversible error by sentencing Tina Peters to prison because he, in essence, deemed her speech to be a danger to society.
Here’s exactly what Judge Barrett said during Tina’s sentencing:
“You are no hero. You abused your position – and you’re a charlatan who used, and is still using your prior position to peddle a snake oil that’s been proven to be junk time and time again. Your lies are well-documented and these convictions are serious. I’m convinced you’d do it all over again if you could. You’re as defiant as a defendant as this court has ever seen.”
In other words, at the root of Tina’s sentencing was the Deep State’s fear that her right to free speech would continue to jeopardize their overwhelming lie emphasizing our elections are safe, transparent and fully trustworthy. FOR THESE AND OTHER AGREGIOUS VIOLATIONS OF LAW, AT A MINIMUM, TINA PETERS SHOULD BE OUT ON BOND PENDING HER APPEAL.
Sadly, Tina wasn’t even allowed to participate in this hearing of hers electronically, from where she continues to languish at the LaVista Prison in Pueblo, Colorado, while the legal team who put her in prison walk free.
One shocking participant at Tuesday’s event was among the dirtiest of them all, Robert Shapiro. This Colorado AG Assistant who argued for the charges against Tina in her trial, had the audacity to show up outside the courtroom amongst the 60+ supporters of Tina, prior to the courtroom doors opening. Most supporters probably didn’t even recognize who he was, even though his DNA is all over everything that resulted in Tina’s conviction.
The collusion between Shapiro and Mesa County Dan Rubinstein didn’t provide Tina an avenue for defending herself, as they crafted despicable charges that prevented her from presenting exculpatory evidence and key witnesses in her case. The persecution and subsequent prosecution of Tina Peters continues to be among the most corrupt (and on par with the lawfare directed against President Trump) series of events in American history, making the legacy crimes of the mafia look like kindergarten.
The damage done by these two prosecutors who weaved the false charges to bring Tina down, seriously challenges the well known criminality of mafia kingpins like Al Capone and John Gotti. Actually, Shapiro and Rubinstein’s damage is orders of magnitude worse due to their treasonous nature, which practically destroyed our country via the stolen elections they attempted to cover-up.
Ultimately, there is additional evidence that this entire case started in DC in Biden’s Justice Department. Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray even participated in a conference call with Mesa County where Tina’s actions were discussed. This and other actions from the federal government indicate that this was a federal issue from the start.
EXCLUSIVE: Federal Actions Arguably Allow President Trump Ability to Step In and Pardon Tina Peters
The objective of all these people and entities in this case was to make an example out of Tina so no other Election Clerks would even think of questioning the 2024 Election. Thankfully, that plan backfired due to the “too big to rig” election results in 2024. However with their cover-up PSYOP in place, the Deep State figured they could resume their election manipulation and theft under the cover of darkness. They were wrong, as the findings of Tina Peters blew their cover wide open. (Visit https://tinapeters.us/ and be sure to watch the documentary “Selection Code” linked from the menu at the top of the Homepage to understand the truth behind the scenes.)
Tina’s Habeas claim involves whether her Constitutional Right of Free Speech was severely violated is a Federal issue. The complication arose during the proceeding. In addition, is the question whether the case was heard and dispositioned sufficiently at the Colorado State Court level. Since Tina is alleging that Colorado violated her Constitutional rights to begin with, this Constitutional violation should supersede any further involvement with the Colorado Court, and enable it to be immediately heard in the Federal Court.
That was the intent of the July 22nd hearing, led by Tina’s Attorney Peter Ticktin. Here’s a glimpse of Attorney Ticktin being interviewed by CBS upon conclusion of the proceedings:
While the Judge could have simply thrown out the case with the same malice and forethought demonstrated at all phases of Tina’s persecution and prosecution thus far, he instead fairly asked that Tina’s team refile their paperwork (by July 25th) to only address this First Amendment Habeas issue.
The original submission included 4 other areas of concern that at this juncture only serve to unnecessarily distract from the glaring issue of Habeas. If this Habeas is resolved, it will be the rising tide to lift all the other areas of concern. Given the associated filings that need to occur now, we’re looking at around 5 weeks to bring this situation to its next phase for a follow-on hearing. Unless a miracle occurs, Tina must continue to suffer through at least 5 more unjust weeks of prison time, so the real criminals won’t have to. Sadly we’re soon approaching the one year mark that Tina has been incarcerated.
This lawfare was specifically designed to keep Tina’s sentencing out of Federal jurisdiction, thus preventing President Trump from directly Pardoning her.
Election tampering is a treasonous offence because it only exists to cheat those selected into power, in order to subvert the will of “We The People”. We are once again reminded of the ramifications the rising tide of justice will soon bring when it reaches the shores of Shapiro, Rubinstein, Judge Barrett and many many others, as described in this article, and also in this Truth from President Trump:
The people who didn’t heed the below warning will now wish they did:
CEASE & DESIST: I, together with many Attorneys and Legal Scholars, am watching the Sanctity of the 2024 Presidential Election very closely because I know, better than most, the rampant Cheating and Skullduggery that has taken place by the Democrats in the 2020 Presidential…

Accountability is now on the horizon as the revelations about the Obama Administration continue to stream out. That accountability will soon reach the front door of those who maliciously put Tina Peters in Prison.

President Trump praised Hulk Hogan for his “absolutely electric” speech at last year’s RNC convention.
“We lost a great friend today, the “Hulkster.” Hulk Hogan was MAGA all the way — Strong, tough, smart, but with the biggest heart. He gave an absolutely electric speech at the Republican National Convention, that was one of the highlights of the entire week. He entertained fans from all over the World, and the cultural impact he had was massive. To his wife, Sky, and family, we give our warmest best wishes and love. Hulk Hogan will be greatly missed!”
Hulk Hogan and his wife were baptized in December 2023.
“Total surrender and dedication to Jesus is the greatest day of my life. No worries, no hate, no judgment… only love!” Hulk Hogan said.

In a bold and fiery statement that has made waves across social media and major news outlets, commentator Stephen A. Smith unleashed a scathing rebuke of the radical left’s takeover of the Democratic Party. Targeting the likes of New York State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Senator Bernie Sanders, Smith warned of the existential threat their socialist ideas pose to the future of the United States.
Smith reacted to a recent statement by Mamdani, who argued that “no

Trump Gets Backlash Over RNC Chair Endorsement: An LGBT ‘Ally’ Who ‘Just Tried to Pass Amnesty’

Get ready for the next clash of conservatives.
When Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley announced Thursday he is entering the race for Senate in North Carolina, he did more than put a second high-profile name in the running in the Tar Heel State.
He set up what could be a bruising battle for leadership of the GOP on a nationwide scale.
In a July 24 post on the social media platform Truth Social, President Donald Trump, the hands-down heavyweight of party politics, heartily endorsed Whatley in the North Carolina race, and at the same time endorsed Florida state Sen. Joe Gruters, the party’s current national treasurer, to step into Whatley’s place.
But there’s already a groundswell of opposition to Gruters. And one of his most vocal opponents is Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
As the Sunshine State news website Florida Politics noted in a July 16 report, DeSantis slammed Gruters in a news conference where DeSantis appointed Florida state Sen. Blaise Ingoglia to the post of Florida chief financial officer.
It’s a job Gruters has been running for since May of last year.
While appointing a rival to the vacant post, DeSantis made his distaste for Gruters painfully clear.
“If George Washington rose from the dead and came back and tapped me on the shoulder and said, ‘Will you appoint Joe Gruters CFO?’ my response would be, no, I can’t do that without betraying the voters that elected me,” DeSantis said, according to Florida Politics.
He accused Gruters of siding with teachers’ unions in battles with the state government, as well as supporting the marijuana industry (a constitutional amendment to legalize recreational use failed in November).
According to the Tampa Bay Times, DeSantis and Gruters clashed over a bill Gruters supported that would have put the job of chief immigration officer in the state in the hands of the state’s agriculture commissioner.
In a post on the social media platform X, DeSantis called the bill “truly contemptible” and described it as “amnesty.”
This successful operation under Operation Vigilant Sentry would have been illegal under the Perez/Gruters amnesty bill that I vetoed earlier this year.
It was a truly contemptible piece of legislation that would have allowed these illegals to pour in on our shores with impunity. https://t.co/bj5MBwQjww

And as the Sarasota Herald-Tribune reported in January 2020, Gruters had a history of sponsoring pro-gay legislation in the state before appearing to reverse course.
“I’m an ally of the LGBTQ community,” he told the newspaper.
More recently, in April, Gruters made the wrong kind of headlines when the U.K.’s Daily Mail, a British outlet with a major North American presence, revealed he was a follower of 60 accounts on the adult-themed OnlyFans site.
(“I typically engage accounts that are recommended or interact with my account,” Gruters told the Daily Mail. “That said, I will review my follows and remove any content that may be considered questionable.”)
Conservative media users aren’t letting that past go.
“Perfect for San Francisco, nightmare for Florida,” one pro-DeSantis account on the social media platform X declared.

“Gruters just tried to pass amnesty for illegal aliens in Florida,” wrote another user.

The conservative pro-life website LifeSiteNews made its view clear in its headline and summary head about Trump’s endorsement.
“Trump endorses LGBT ‘ally’ Joe Gruters to be next RNC chair,” the headline declared.
The summary headline?
“Donald Trump has endorsed Joe Gruters to lead the Republican National Committee despite the Florida lawmaker’s liberal stances on LGBT ‘discrimination,’ immigration, teachers’ unions, and marijuana.”
According to Florida Politics, Gruters was the first Florida lawmaker to make an official endorsement of Trump in the Republican 2024 primary — snubbing DeSantis’ short-lived, mistake-in-hindsight primary challenge to the 45th president.
That no doubt plays a role in both Trump’s support for Gruters and DeSantis’ opposition, but there appear to be deeper factors at play here.
In a job as crucial as the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee, having anything less than sterling, unblemished bona fides is going to be a problem with a voter base with a limited trust in establishment politicians, even if they have an “R” next to their name.
Questionable positions on “trans” issues, illegal immigration, and drugs — not to mention raising eyebrows by following OnlyFans models — are serious red flags for any contender for the job.
Trump has proven over and over again what he can accomplish with sheer force of will, and he’s almost single-handedly responsible for revising the ideological power of the Republican Party after the dormancy of the post-Mitt Romney world.
As the titular head of the party, as well as probably the single most influential human being in the world, much less the American GOP, he could almost certainly install any chairman of the party he chooses.
However, the situation now is the midterms are approaching next year, and the magic “Trump” name is not on the ballot — which means the energy of the party faithful is going to be at a premium for all of the Republican Party.
The question for Trump is, is a clash with conservatives worth it?
