Arizona grand jury indicts Meadows, Giuliani, other Trump allies for 2020 election interference

The former president is listed as an unindicted co-conspirator.

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.

The names of seven of the defendants, including Meadows, Giuliani and Epshteyn, are redacted, but the document makes clear who they are by describing their roles. Others include attorneys John Eastman, Jenna Ellis and Christina Bobb, as well as Trump 2020 campaign operative Mike Roman.

Ken Chesebro, an attorney who helped devise Trump’s post-election strategy, is described as “unindicted coconspirator 4.” The other three unindicted co-conspirators are state Sen. Kelly Townsend, former state Rep. Mark Finchem, and former Arizona GOP lawyer Jack Wilenchik.

The only defendants whose names are visible in the version of the indictment released by the Arizona attorney general’s office Wednesday evening are the 11 Republicans who falsely posed as the state’s presidential electors despite Joe Biden’s narrow victory there. Among them: former Arizona GOP Chairwoman Kelli Ward, state senators Jake Hoffman and Anthony Kern, and Arizona’s RNC committeeman Tyler Bowyer.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, a Democrat, has been helming the aggressive investigation. Though she initially appeared to be focused primarily on the false electors, in recent months it became clear that the scope of the probe was broader than previously understood and swept up prominent Trump allies at the national level.

Mayes is the fifth prosecutor to bring criminal charges over the sprawling, multi-state bid by Trump and his allies to upend the 2020 results. Special counsel Jack Smith has charged Trump with federal crimes for those efforts. Prosecutors in Georgia have charged Trump and many of his allies for their efforts to overturn the results in that state, including the fake electors plot. Prosecutors in Michigan and Nevada have also charged Republicans who posed as fake electors in those states.

Michigan prosecutors revealed Wednesday that Trump is an unindicted co-conspirator in their own investigation as well. And many of the newly charged defendants in Arizona, including Meadows, Giuliani, Eastman and Ellis, were charged in the Georgia case. Ellis pleaded guilty in Georgia and avoided jail time, while Meadows, Giuliani and Eastman have pleaded not guilty.

The charges against Bobb are notable because she was recently elevated to a senior position at the Republican National Committee focused on “election integrity.”

Mayes was elected as Arizona’s attorney general in 2022, replacing a Republican. As a result, her probe of the 2020 election plot got off to a later start than those of her counterparts in other states, but it recently appeared to be gathering momentum, with numerous witnesses receiving subpoenas to appear before the grand jury, including several of the false electors. Hoffman, one of the state lawmakers to face charges, appeared before the grand jury on April 8 and asserted his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.

Mayes also subpoenaed several figures in Trump’s national orbit, including two Republican members of Congress, Paul Gosar and Andy Biggs, who played vocal roles in Trump’s bid to overturn the election. Neither Gosar nor Biggs, however, were considered targets of the probe, and they were not charged in the indictment.

Mayes also spoke to Chesebro, a Trump attorney who helped craft the fake electors strategy and who appeared to be cooperating with the probe. And her team questioned Rusty Bowers, who was Arizona’s speaker of the house in 2020 and resisted intense pressure from Trump’s allies to move to overturn Biden’s victory in the state.

A witness who testified to the grand jury told POLITICO that grand jurors appeared to come from a mix of political backgrounds. Some asked questions that suggested they sympathized with Democrats, while others sounded more politically conservative and still others were inscrutable. The witness was granted anonymity to discuss the secret proceedings.

Regardless of the politics, the witness described the jurors, on the whole, as energetic and proactive, driving substantial lines of questioning, even while prosecutors seemed more focused on nuts-and-bolts efforts to substantiate discrete pieces of evidence.

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) - A Las Vegas woman was arrested and accused of being at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Christine Barrello was arrested May 9 in Las Vegas, according to court records. She faces charges of entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly or disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.

According to investigators, Barrello seen on surveillance video entering the Capitol at 2:23 p.m. Jan. 6, 2021, via the second floor window. Barrello was seen in several locations inside the Capitol, spending about 30 mins inside before exiting, investigators said.

During an interview with the FBI on March 22, 2021, Barrello confirmed she was in Washington D.C. on Jan. 6. A special agent surveilled Barrello in January of this year and confirmed she was the person in the images captured on Jan. 6.

Neighbors of Barrello were unable to identify Barrello in the same pictures, with one neighbor saying he didn’t recognize the person in the photos and another stating the person could have been Barrello or another family member. The neighbor said he couldn’t be certain because the family looks alike.

An arrest warrant shows she was arrested in Las Vegas on May 9.

'We are taking over': Bannon vows Republicans will reshape America in MAGA image​


steve-bannon.jpg


The segment on Bannon's "War Room" show, highlighted by the Biden campaign account, was discussing Project 2025, the controversial Heritage Foundation playbook to reshape the entire federal government's civil service into an army of far-right loyalists and Christian nationalists with the next Republican administration. Bannon was speaking to Julie Kelly, a right-wing writer who helped promote this week's conspiracy theory that the FBI was plotting to assassinate Trump.

"People realize exactly what's going on here, and we're not going to back off one inch," Bannon told Kelly. "And if you don’t like it then that’s your problem, because we are taking over this country and are going to set a new set of standards, which are the traditional standards, how things have be run."
