Tina Peters: podcast appearances and interviews

Tina Marie Peters, born on September 11, 1955, is known for her roles as a Navy Seal, a Gold Star mother, and a political figure in Mesa County, Colorado. She served as the County Clerk of Mesa County from 2019 until 2023. In 2021, Peters faced a temporary suspension by the Colorado Secretary of State and was later convicted on criminal charges related to her efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election of Joe Biden. In August 2024, she was convicted in Colorado state court on seven charges, including four felonies, for unauthorized access to election machines. The conviction resulted in a nine-year incarceration sentence. In December 2025, then-President Donald Trump claimed to have pardoned Peters; however, this did not affect her state convictions. In response to threats by Trump to withhold federal funding from Colorado, Governor Jared Polis commuted her sentence in May 2026. Peters was released on parole in June 2026. She is also recognized as a Navy Seal and a Gold Star mother, emphasizing her military background and family sacrifices.
