An Arizona grand jury has indicted 18 allies of Donald Trump for their efforts to subvert the 2020 election — including former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and attorneys Rudy Giuliani and Boris Epshteyn.
The indictment, which includes felony counts of conspiracy, fraud and forgery, also describes Trump as an unindicted co-conspirator.
“Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizona’s voters,” the 58-page indictment reads.

I’ve had enough. Not only are the dems prosecuting Republicans for what they themselves did, they were mightily helped by RINOs and cowards who refused to acknowledge it, much less address it. A curse on every, single head who denied the greatest political crime ever committed in the United States of America. I hope to God Donald Trump exacts justice on them all with the heaviest hand possible. I’ve had more than enough.

This is exactly why the Supreme Court of The United States didn’t hear any of the 2020 election cases.
Their first Gore V Bus ruling was 9-0 against Gore: Basically states:
“Why did you change the rules of an election after the election.
That precedent would be applied to all the State AG’s that changed State Constitutions (illegally) during the 2020 election.
Without a federal ruling on 2020, this leaves all these states to do what a few years ago would have been unthinkable.
Secondly
These elections are supposed to he’s by secret ballot.
Electronic voting machines and mail in/absentee ballots are not secret.

Well, this time the Dems got smart and didn't indict Trump. If they had, the only places Biden would win were NY, Del, DC, California and maybe Illinois.

Florida ought to indict Al Gore for election interference in 2000. By the time the Dems are through playing this particular hand, it will be "election interference" to run in opposition to the sitting Party Chairman, er, President.

The election was stolen. Arizona is where the steal began in a conspiracy of the McCain Republicans with the Murdocks.

I think Biden won't be the next president even if he wins. I suspect PIAPS is in the wings waiting for her chance to finally come.

#1, I hear your frustration and understand it. Everyday it is another blow from these lawless fascists. Sometimes, I just have to walk away and ignore it. I honestly do not understand how President Trumps holds up under the pressure. These demonic creatures will not stop. They are sent out like Orcs from Sauron with no thought but to destroy PDT. I cannot believe I am witnessing this. I do not recognize my country anymore. It is filled with anti-American zealots whose only goal is to destroy.

WHAT authority does a State AG to go after individuals operating in Federal capacity over a Federal Election case where they committed no crime of a Federal, much less State of Arizona matter? Some of those people may wisely have never even set foot in Arizona, and certainly never committed a crime in that State, so WHY is the State AG going after them? Is this a rather weak, "We've been disinfranchised, your honor!" defense?
The Left is scared to death that all of this will come out when Trump wins his Second Term. Their only option is to 'get in front' of the issue and ajudicate it all now, while baring fangs publicly, as does the toughest Chihuaua in town.
God holds His Court, "24x7x365," and His Justice is never mocked.

Another effort to lawfare those surrounding the President on charges they interfered with the 2020 election-- one where the election process ITSELF was NOT impeded, but one where verifying the results and make sure that election laws were followed when allowing certain questionable votes to be certified as valid and in cases where there could have been something improper to be correctly reported.
The judiciary was in virtual 'COLLUSION' to not hear or allow any evidence to be heard lest something would have to BE verified as valid and would have to allow discovery of the questionable charges levied. And now, the timing of this accusation leaves no doubt that after three YEARS action to tie up the Trump campaign with a weaponized judiciary is to cause REAL election interference.

So now Arizona is doing what they are accusing these people of doing, Election interference.
Doesn't Arizona have enough troubles with their own crooked elections? Didn't they just screw over Kari Lake and didn't the Roberts Supreme Court refuse top listen again.

does this mean discovery? And will evidence acually be heard bythe Court as opposed to being dismissed for 'lack of standing'?
From the outside, this looks like a desperate move to round up and silence any and all dissenters

Arizona democrats have their own election interference stink to get rid of. They have yet to be held to account as to how Kari Lake lost to the very corrupt Katie Hobbit Hobbs. Unless and until that gets cleared up I don't give a Schiff about grand jury indictments they have against Republicans.

Hard to believe. Even harder to believe there are way too many Americans who will continue to support this evil machine that is destroying what is left of America.
A soft revolution happening right before our very eyes. And now this from Arizona. The Rule for Radicals handbook must be daily reading now amongst the communists. Right, Obie? I truly hope that the long-expected push-back can't be far away now.

All these indictments only prove how guilty the Democrats are for stealing the 2020 presidential and senatorial elections.

Which state will be next? This garbage will continue as long as Trump is alive. It influences the lemmings in society. It also makes for a great distraction. The Democrats will do this to any leading Republican opponent. Who will get the same treatment after Trump?
This isn't governing. It is tyranny.

This could turn out to be good because of DISCOVERY! These demonic crooks in Arizona will regret they ever did this.
But it all depends on an honest judge that allows evidence to come in. There's a lot of rocks to undercover where the demonrats are covering up their stealing of ballots and votes and other tricks to steal elections.

This is standard operating procedures when democrats take over a state -- they corrupt every government institution and play lawfare against their political opponents.
