An Arizona grand jury on Wednesday indicted former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, and five other former aides to former President Donald Trump on felony charges related to the Trump campaign’s objection to the 2020 election results. The indictment, which includes felony counts of conspiracy, fraud and forgery, also names Trump as an “unindicted co-conspirator.”
Eleven additional Arizona Republicans who served as alternate electors have also been indicted, including former Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward, state senators Jake Hoffman and Anthony Kern, and Arizona’s RNC committeeman Tyler Bowyer. Leftist prosecutors have routinely labeled alternate electors as “fake electors” before charging them with felony forgery and fraud crimes.

This has already been done in Michigan and Nevada, and will also be the case in Arizona, where defendants will face felony counts of conspiracy, fraud and forgery.
“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.
