Arizona AG seeks new indictment in Trump 2020 election case

... "The Arizona Attorney General's Office will return this case to the grand jury," Mayes spokesperson Richie Taylor said. "We decline to comment further at this time."

The announcement by Mayes, a Democrat, came moments after the Arizona Supreme Court publicly revealed a June 2 decision to deny Mayes' bid to revive the case against some of Trump's top allies, which was dismissed over a judge's finding that there was a defect in the grand jury indictment.

The brief, unexplained decision closed the book on a two-year-old case that threatened some of Trump's closest allies, including former chief of staff Mark Meadows, attorneys Rudy Giuliani and John Eastman and nearly a dozen GOP activists who falsely claimed to be legitimate presidential electors despite Trump's defeat in the state.

According to the indictment, Clark suggested deploying the military to suppress political unrest in the event that the coup proved successful.

Eastman appears to have been comfortable with that plan as well."

It's always seems so... surreal, that the Cult ignores the Fact that there was a REAL Coup Plot and plotters, people from Project25 and such, that REALLY DID hatch a plan for DJT to OVERTURN THE ELECTION.... and that it almost werked.

Had the DOJ not threatened to quit en masse, it would have. And the planners are still running around free, and their Point Con Man is back in the WH.
