Trump is charged again!

[acbytesla]

Today, AZ just charged Trump, Meadows, Giuliani and others for election interference in the 2020 election.

I thought Trump was only an unindicted co-conspirator. Has that changed?

Do you have a link? I don't see Trump charged anywhere, just Meadows, Giuliani and Epshteyn.

I’m seeing 11 Republicans charged, but Trump is not named.

Just saw on news that he's unindicted...for now.

 

[acbytesla]

My mistake. The article says Trump associates.

My understanding is they have to serve each individual first before they can announce it.

Not sure if that means Trump has or hasn't been indicted.

Wow, that's quite the list of top GOPers at the bottom of the article.

Wow, that's quite the list of top GOPers at the bottom of the article.

For posterity/searchability:

“The Republicans facing charges are Kelli Ward, the state GOP’s chair from 2019 until early 2023; state Sen. Jake Hoffman; Tyler Bowyer, an executive of the conservative youth organization Turning Point USA who serves on the Republican National Committee; state Sen. Anthony Kern, who was photographed in restricted areas outside the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 attack and is now a candidate in Arizona’s 8th Congressional District; Greg Safsten, a former executive director of the Arizona Republican Party; energy industry executive James Lamon, who lost a 2022 Republican primary for a U.S. Senate seat; Robert Montgomery, chairman of the Cochise County Republican Committee in 2020; Samuel Moorhead, a Republican precinct committee member in Gila County; Nancy Cottle, who in 2020 was the first vice president of the Arizona Federation of Republican Women; Loraine Pellegrino, president of the Ahwatukee Republican Women; and Michael Ward, an osteopathic physician who is married to Kelli Ward.”

I'm sure we'll be hearing from Trump any minute claiming WITCH HUNT! Biden instigated!
PERSECUTION like we've never seen before! Everyone is saying it! Everyone knows! Trump hating grand jury!

 

[alfaniner]

I'm surprised -- it's Arizona. I think most will skate.

If, God forbid, Trump ever gets back in the White House, he'll spend his first 24 hours pardoning every single person charged with and/or convicted of anything related to Jan. 6 or his Big Lie of a stolen, rigged election. POS.

But the President can't pardon for state charges. Not that he won't try.

But it's only a fringe group that is so crazy... Yeah right.

 

[The Great Zaganza]

Looks like an invitation for those indicted to put all the blame on Trump in exchange for a lesser sentence.

 

[Segnosaur]

Perhaps. But then it may depend on where exactly the trial is held and where the jury pool is drawn from.

There was at least one district where biden won almost 3/4s of the votes in 2020, and the mayor of Phoenix is a democrat, so perhaps they may be able to find enough jurors who are not MAGAchud to give a fair trial.

Yes, I realize that. The Jan. 6 convictions/charges are all federal. They'll be gone. He'll pressure any GOP governor to pardon the state cases. And they'll cave like a sink hole in Florida.

Well unplug him before he overheats and burns the place down.
