Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee on Tuesday signed off on two requests from prosecutors to call Republican National Committee (RNC) Chair Ronna McDaniel and radio show host Alex Jones as witnesses in the upcoming trial against Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell.

Mr. Chesebro and Ms. Powell were indicted alongside former President Donald Trump and 16 others for challenging the results of the 2020 election in Georgia. All 19 defendants were charged with violating the state’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act; 18 have pleaded not guilty, with co-defendant Scott Hall accepting a plea bargain from the prosecutors.
