The political prosecution against Trump and his allies continues.
Pro-Trump lawyer Stefanie Lambert, who has not backed down from talking about election fraud, was arrested on Monday afternoon in Washington, D.C., due to a bench warrant.
A bench warrant was sent out for Lambert after she refused to be fingerprinted after being charged with four felonies by Special Prosecutor D.J. Hilson in Michigan; one felony included undue possession of a voting machine.
Due to her warrant in Michigan, Lambert was arrested by U.S. Marshals and charged in D.C. for being a fugitive from justice.
Her arrest came directly after attending a court hearing regarding leaked emails of private communications among Dominion Voting Machine’s employees.

Here’s what Detriot News reported:
Stefanie Lambert, a Michigan lawyer who has championed dubious claims of election fraud, was arrested in Washington, D.C., Monday afternoon because of a bench warrant, according to a spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service.
ADVERTISEMENTThe arrest ended an 11-day saga of uncertainty that played out after Oakland County Circuit Court Judge Jeffery Matis issued a warrant because Lambert failed to appear for a hearing related to four felony charges she’s facing in Michigan.
Lambert, who’s gained prominence among supporters of former President Donald Trump, refused to turn herself in and attempted to challenge the warrant in court filings. On Wednesday, Matis called on the attorney from South Lyon “to comply with that warrant.”
Meanwhile, Lambert has also been representing businessman Patrick Byrne, former chief executive officer of Overstock, in a defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems. There was a hearing in Byrne’s case in federal court in Washington, D.C., at 3 p.m. Monday. Lambert attended the hearing despite the warrant.
After the hearing concluded, all lawyers and observers, except for Lambert, exited the meeting room and U.S. marshals entered.

CNN reported the scoop in the most slanted way possible:
A pro-Trump lawyer who tried to overturn the 2020 election was arrested Monday after a court hearing about her recent leak of internal emails belonging to Dominion Voting Systems.
There was an existing arrest warrant for the attorney, Stefanie Lambert, stemming from her failure to appear at recent court hearings in her separate criminal case in Michigan, where she was charged with conspiring to seize voting machines after the 2020 election.
Lambert and a cadre of election deniers have disrupted one of Dominion’s many ongoing defamation lawsuits by publicly leaking thousands of the company’s internal emails in recent days, using the disclosures to resurrect false claims about voter fraud.
The controversy erupted when Lambert provided the confidential Dominion documents to Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf, who has embraced conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and has used his office to hunt for supposed voter fraud against Donald Trump. In the last 24 hours, Leaf has posted more than 2,000 internal Dominion documents on his social media account.
