Quick Glance: 11 Republican 'Fake Electors' Charged in Arizona

Eleven Republicans were charged in Arizona for falsely claiming that Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election in Arizona against Joe Biden.

They met in Phoenix to sign a certificate declaring Trump had won the state. The document was sent to Congress and the National Archives but ignored.

The Arizona charges follow indictments against fake electors in Nevada, Michigan, and Georgia.

The charges allege conspiracy, fraud, and forgery as they falsely declared Trump as the winner in Arizona despite Biden's victory by over 10,000 votes.

Trump lawyers try to discredit key prosecution witness as hush money trial wraps first week

omaha.com/news/nation-world/government-politics/trump-trial-hush-money-david-pecker/article_442ed4ff-7fc1-5900-be08-c429be7441f5.html

Quick Glance: Trump's Disregard for Democratic Principles

Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity for criminal acts as president is an assault on common sense and a perversion of the fundamental principle of American democracy.

The Supreme Court's decision to take the case may delay the former president's trial and deprive the public of the right to know if he attempted to undermine the sacred process of presidential succession.

The Supreme Court's direct intervention in the 2024 presidential election deprives voters of critical information and could lead to a constitutional crisis if Trump is re-elected and convicted.

The notion that the president is above the law and can pardon himself is a radical contempt for republican government, revealing Trump's vision of unchecked royal power.
