Who is Mike Roman? If you think, "Just another of the long list of indicted people in Georgia" ... you need to read on. Both Canadian's AND Americans need to read on for sure. Some of this is news to me and I pay more attention than most.
Firstly, he is the slimeball who while sitting comfortably at home while white and privileged for his crimes, has been busy looking for anything salatious he could find on Fani Willis. If you find office romance salatious that is. That is what he found but when there was no there there, he just made it look worse than it was. He and his minions want his charge dropped and what better way than to have tRUMP and tRUMP judges and lawyers chime in? DARVO - deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender.
It has to be over. LOSER45 says it is...
And then of course, the "news." Yes it was untimely. However both have made affadavits swearing to dates and lack of conflict of interest and attached it to her latest filing, so hopefully there was no lying to back up any of the claims. Their careers would be toast. Please come back later and look at these after you read more about Roman. They may change your mind about how you "feel" about all this.
Trump’s plot to overturn 2020 election ‘crazier than anybody imagined’
ISIKOFF: It would be grievously damaged. I mean, look. Fani Willis and Nathan Wade and the team have been immersed in this case and the details of this case for close to two years now. If a whole new team had to come in and start from scratch, not being familiar with the witness testimony to - and what the evidence is, it would set back this case many, many months, if not, you know, more than that and certainly beyond the November election.
But one of the things we do report in the book is that Fani Willis had trouble finding anybody to take this job because of the threats that were so permeating in Georgia with anybody who touched it. She reached out to former governor of Georgia Roy Barnes, who turned her down, saying - and this is quoted in our book - hypothetically speaking, do you want to have a bodyguard follow you around for the rest of your life?
Fanni Willis and Nathan Wade respond and debunk all corruption allegations against them

Trump ally emerged from shadows to deal blow to Ga. case against former president
Roman's a ratfucker and a hacker. He's a criminal associate of criminal tRUMP, so yeah.. an ally... but more of an mob boss/asset relationship. Maybe someday the headlines will be free to go there...
“I show my wife this all the time when we go to a hotel,” Roman told the crowd in Harrisburg, Pa., according to an audio recording reviewed by The Washington Post. “She logs on to the Hilton WiFi, and I go on and I ‘tap, tap, tap,’ and I show her everybody else that’s on there and how we could get into their computer.”
Over a career as a political operative and investigator, including for the conservative Koch brothers’ network, he has been described as intensely private and driven in his work. He has hired former CIA analysts to train his staff, arranged for drones to surveil campaign rallies and used military terminology, according to former colleagues. While working for Trump in 2020, he recruited poll-watchers for what the campaign called the “Army for Trump,” oversaw election-day operations and played a key role in organizing the “alternate elector plan” that is central to the charges in Fulton County, records show.
WaPo has the story that outlines a few tidbits about Roman, but that URL may not work for long so here is Marcy Wheeler breaking it down.
Mike Roman, Donald Trump’s Spy and Vote Fraud Fraudster
https://www.emptywheel.net/tag/mike-roman/ (If you scroll down you can read more on how Roman is involved in this very important Georgia case)
But that's not all...
Mike Roman is a Roger Stone Clone
This person has been blogging about Mike Ronan for some time now...
Roman was paid by the RNC & the NRSC via their Recount Accounts during the time his indictment crimes; Mike Roman & his firm, MR&A LLC, was paid a total of $564k bet Nov 2018 & March 2021 for legal & compliance even though he is not a lawyer; ike Roman was treasurer & then assistant chair of the International Democrat Union, a conservative not-for-profit headed by Canada's former CONservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Roman's name was recently scrubbed from the IDU site (more on that next); When Mike Roman joined the Trump administration in 2017, his financial disclosure report showed he made more than $500k in the preceding year but his only assets was a bank account w $15k in cash *A forensic expert should be the next hire of the Georgia team); There is a reason that Pennsylvania was in the news at vote count time. Roman had "friends" working there to disrupt and lie and make "news.".

And there's more... The dirty-trickster has his claws everywhere.
Who Is Mike Roman? The Trump Indictee with Canadian Ties
I knew Art FINKelstein (May he rest on piss) had a team in Canada to keep our former CONservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper ensconced for 10 f'ing years with dirty tricks, asshole lies and fake robo calls to voters and disgusting smears... but I did not know Roman was part of that team. Roman was also involved with a another CONservative candidate, Sheer. (Un the US he has been on 4 president's campaigns and advisories)
Roman matters because in Canada, as well as the U.S. and many other countries today, third-party groups, often homegrown and emphatically authoritarian, pose a real threat to democracy. They are helping to elect governments that are subverting basic freedoms in the West.
Roman’s exposed role in the Georgia election scandal should act as a wake-up call to everyone who worries about what can only be called fascist-creep in democracies around the world.
Ar the same time as he was advising tRUMP, Roman was the IDU organization’s treasurer, than was assistant chairman at the same time he was ratf*ckng the USA election.
The chairman of the IDU was then, and is now, Stephen Harper.
Did IDU chairman Harper know what his assistant chairman was doing?Did Harper have any knowledge of Roman’s participation in the meeting with Andrew Scheer and others prior to the 2019 federal election in Canada?Harper has so far not commented on Mike Roman’s wide-ranging indictment.
That is strange, since Roman was promoted from treasurer to assistant chairman of the IDU while he was allegedly helping Trump to subvert the 2020 election.
It will not be surprising to you to learn that Harper calls himself a "christian" and that the mega Evangelical churches also worked with US Talibangelicals to keep Harper in power. My absolute proof of that is a video that was removed from YouTube...DAMMIT!!!
This is a must read as it shows how his deep digging has given him international clout and access to dark money that make him a power house ... https://thetyee.ca/Analysis/2023/09/06/Mike-Roman-Canadian-Ties/ (After reading this, Bannon and his Judeo/Christian nihilism must also be involved)
International Democracy Union
While Wiki is not a perfect source, I am too ill to do more digging today. (I am not even sure those who lurk here are reading or caring... but I hope what I write about is not in vain...)

"Mrs." Roman, Adrienne McAllister
His 'wife' is also a piece of work. He calls her his wife, and uses his surname when talking about the family with their 7 kids, but they do not seem to be married. Surely the party of law and order and family values would not be abusing their relationship or government assistance during a recession? I bet some sleuthing would turn up some pretty interesting anti-Obama, anti-welfare, anti-anything Dem in their past. As usual, the bootstraps on this couple are mighty loose...
As the global economy collapsed, Roman and his partner, Adrienne McAllister, fell behind on repaying their mortgage. In July 2009, their lender moved to foreclose on their modest Philadelphia house.

Two months later, McAllister filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which allows a filer to repay debts through monthly installments and can protect against foreclosure. McAllister reported in her bankruptcy filings that she and Roman owed more than $12,400 in overdue mortgage payments and that she owed thousands in other debts. She would file for bankruptcy four more times over the next decade, even as Roman in some years received six-figure incomes.
She worked for NAGSPA... as their Sergeant-at-Arms until the SHTF... and she is now replaced. Their motto is to "keep god's children safe." Safe from what and whom I wonder? Books, learning, science, real life? Drag queens? History and slavery talk?
Although this may seem repetitive, it is important to remember that there are a lot of Rat F*ckers like Michael Roman who are willing to subvert elections everywhere to achieve their fascist agendas. (Under the umbrella of global democracy of all names)
Trump ally emerged from shadows to deal blow to Ga. case against former president
Mike Roman,director of Election Day operations for Trump's 2020 reelection campaign, was in the spotlight after allegations of an improper relationship between Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and the lawyer she hired to help prosecute tRUMP.
Looking back on his past, this is exactly what he does. And it worked. The trial will be delayed 'til after the 2024 election ... many years after the crime was committed and giving tRUMP the possibility of giving pardons to all and making his trials disappear... https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2024/02/02/mike-roman-trump-georgia-election-case-fani-willis/

Mike Roman GOP Operative Working For Stephen Harper Named tRUMP Georgia Indictment
‘Mike Roman, charged alongside 18 others for attempting to overturn the 2020 election, is employed as an Assistant Chairman of the International Democrat Union (IDU). Pictures posted to his social media show him on the ground supporting the 2022 blockade protests in Ottawa. man, a longtime GOP operative, was listed as an Assistant Chairman on the IDU website as of August 1, according to the Internet Archive.
Other assistant chairmen include Peter Mac Manu of Ghana’s New Patriotic Party, UK Conservative Party member Alec Shelbrooke, Marco Solares from the Partido Unionista in Guatemala, and Erna Solberg of Norway’s Conservative Party. Roman’s name and picture have since been removed. ‘ https://www.antihate.ca/gop_operative_working_stephen_harper_trump_indictment_mike_roman
‘Roman matters because in Canada, as well as the U.S. and many other countries today, third-party groups, often homegrown and emphatically authoritarian, pose a real threat to democracy.

Roman’s exposed role in the Georgia election scandal should act as a wake-up call to everyone who worries about what can only be called fascist-creep in democracies around the world.’
‘…On behalf of the loser of that election, Republican Bruce Marks, Roman came up with the strategy of taking the case to court, alleging that the election was rife with voter fraud.
And that’s how the ostensible loser in the election became state senator via the courts. This was believed to be a first in American politics, and the GOP establishment took notice of a promising new way to turn losing into winning. Sometimes the courts could give you what the electorate did not — a tactic later tried on steroids by Trump. The key was never to concede defeat. https://thetyee.ca/Analysis/2023/09/06/Mike-Roman-Canadian-Ties/
