The indictment against the slate of fake electors in Arizona and the Trump allies who advanced the scheme there includes a host of public statements and private exchanges that show how the group intended to overturn the state’s electoral votes for Joe Biden in 2020.
Arizona’s Democratic attorney general, Kris Mayes, announced on Wednesday that a state grand jury charged the 11 false electors and seven others with nine felony counts of fraud, forgery and conspiracy. The indictment from Mayes’s office is sure to be a talking point in this year’s elections, nearly four years after the acts themselves occurred.
The case’s net spans more broadly than the slate of fake electors itself, entangling Trump associates who perpetrated the theory that this “alternative” slate could be used by Congress and then vice-president Mike Pence instead of the state’s rightful electors who signed off that Biden won the state.
The documents detail the steps taken behind the scenes to push the concept of using electors for Trump to pressure Pence on 6 January 2021. Trump allies, both those charged in Arizona and those who weren’t, were exchanging messages, pressuring elected officials and arranging court cases to benefit the fake electors idea, the indictment shows.
Low hanging fruit. It’s great that I’m living rent free in your head 24/7
Your parents should be ashamed of themselves for raising you to be the way you are.
Absolutely emberassing.
The only embarrassment would be from those believing bullshit from politicians, red or blue
But ill bet youre dumbass will happily vote for the reds siding with russia and attempting to dismantle democracy at home.
Fuck off.
And you would lose that bet. Red fascist or blue fascist is still fascism. The ridiculous part is Democrats believe that they are saving democracy by voting for a party that is suing to keep other parties off the ballot, that are hand picked their preferred candidates and refused to primary a candidate that swore he would only serve one term with a 33% approval rating. While ignoring the needs of the working class and the poor as they cater to the donor class.
Define fascism
