Insurrections have consequences – and they are catching up with certain prominent Arizona Republican ELECTION DENIERS. It couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of people.
We all know that Arizona is a critical swing state in 2024. But things are not going well for its clownish Republican party. Here’s one more example.
Arizona State Attorney General Mayes has been quietly working behind the scenes to assemble ironclad cases against Arizona’s slate of fake electors and their enablers, including two Arizona Republican Congressmen. She may soon be ready to make her move. My favorite part of the article below is one of the headlines.
Fake elector says Mayes ‘weaponizing our justice system’
So sad!
(azcentral) Attorney General Kris Mayes again said her investigation of the Republican electors who falsely claimed Donald Trump won Arizona in 2020 would wrap up “very soon” as new details came to light about the broadening reach of the probe.
“As I’ve said all along, we are engaged in a very serious, very professional investigation into what happened with the fake electors,” Mayes told reporters on Thursday following a news conference on a different topic. “I’m not ready to stand before you here today and announce anything, but we will have something for you on that front very soon.”
Odious Congressman Andy Bigg and Paul Gosar are also in the AG’s crosshairs for their role in the state’s fake elector scheme. AG Mayes subpoenaed both Congressmen to testify before the grand jury, although that doesn’t necessarily mean she will bring charges against them. Yet.
I hope Paul Gosar is as distressed about that as he looks in this photo. That probably makes me a bad person. :: shrug ::
Both congressmen were closely tied to the plan to create slates of alternate electors — so-called fake electors — to keep Trump in the White House over the will of voters.
Gosar was outlining his argument for challenging Arizona’s election result when rioters overtook the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Biggs, in text messages to Trump aide Mark Meadows three days after the election, said in “states where there’s been shenanigans” he should submit alternate electors for Trump and have Republican-led legislatures formally support him.
