Right-Wingers Are Calling For Military Intervention, Violence to Free Tina Peters [View all]

Prominent right-wing figures are calling for the military to free Tina Peters, the Colorado election-denier-turned-MAGA-folk-hero who’s currently serving a nine-year prison sentence for her role in a 2021 voting system data breach, in a failed attempt to find voter fraud.

The escalating rhetoric comes as the Trump administration aims to pressure Colorado officials to transfer Peters to federal custody — and underscores how springing Peters from prison has become a cause celebre among conspiracy-driven far-right activists.

During a Nov. 24 interview with Steve Bannon, Peters’ attorney Peter Ticktin suggested that the president send in the military to free Peters from state prison in Colorado.

“Do I think that it should be done?” Ticktin asked. “Yeah. I would love to see that happen.”
