🚨 Trump’s Pardon Gambit Backfires: The Colorado Criminal Case Threatening “Political Havoc”
A seemingly minor criminal case in Colorado is escalating into a national political crisis, with Donald Trump’s unprecedented demands for a pardon being flatly rejected by state officials. Sources suggest the former President’s intense involvement may stem from a fear of damaging information held by the convicted individual, Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters.
This is being dubbed “the smallest little biggest little criminal case” you’ve likely never heard of, yet the implications, according to observers, are large enough to “plunge us into civil war.” At the center of the storm is Tina Peters, the former Mesa County Clerk who was jailed and convicted for giving unauthorized access to sensitive voting machine software to Trump allies in 2021.
The State Crime Trump Can’t Pardon
Peters’ guilt, demonstrated by her order to shut off monitoring video cameras, resulted in her conviction and a scathing judicial rebuke. The sentencing judge stated clearly: “You are no hero. You abused your position. And you’re a charlatan who used and is still using your prior position in office to pedal a snake oil that’s been proven to be junk time and time again.”
Crucially, Peters’ crimes were violations of Colorado state law, meaning they fall outside the jurisdiction of a presidential pardon.

Despite this clear legal barrier, Trump launched a sustained pressure campaign, initially via social media rants, hoping to galvanize support for Peters’ release. When the public failed to take up the call, Trump upped the ante this week by issuing an official pardon for Peters—a gesture that is legally null and void.
Both the Attorney General and the Governor of Colorado swiftly and publicly dismissed Trump’s action, confirming they would not “cave to Trump.” When asked about the scenario of Trump’s representatives attempting to physically remove Peters from the state prison, Colorado authorities were unequivocal: “No. There’s no legal authority for any federal government action to take a prisoner who’s in state custody lawfully…”
The 101st Airborne Suggestion
The desperation reached a new peak when Peters’ legal team appeared on Steve Bannon’s War Room, sending what analysts are calling a “trial balloon” to gauge public reaction. The exchange escalated dramatically with a suggestion that the President should call out the 101st Airborne Division to forcibly remove Peters from the Colorado prison.
This dramatic, highly charged rhetoric is viewed as more than mere bluster. It signals a desperate, high-pressure tactic aimed squarely at Donald Trump.
The Real Reason for Trump’s Panic
Why is Donald Trump—who “doesn’t worry about anyone other than him”—so obsessed with a convicted county clerk? The most likely explanation is that Tina Peters possesses information that could damage Trump.
Peters, who facilitated access to voting machine software for the Trump team, is suspected of holding critical information about how that software may have been intended to be used or tampered with. This leads to the most explosive speculation: could Peters possess evidence that reveals a larger plot, potentially even “a trail of evidence that proves Harris won the 2024 election”?
The article concludes that if such evidence were to emerge, it would “prove that the Trump administration is illegitimate and rip this country in two,” creating political havoc. For this reason, all eyes must remain on Tina Peters, because “as far as Trump is concerned, she’s a dangerous woman.”
