Being our (belated) semi-regular survey of what’s goin’ down in the several states, where, as we know, the real work of governmentin’ gets done, and where the sun comes shining on that little Minnesota town.

We begin with the good news from Arizona, where they apparently have indicted everybody in Arizona except the roster of the Phoenix Coyotes in the fake-electors scam. From NBC News:

Trump is described as “Unindicted Coconspirator 1” in the indictment, which includes charges of conspiracy, fraud and forgery. The document also describes people who have been charged in the case but have not yet been served and whose names are redacted: Meadows, Trump’s former White House chief of staff; Giuliani, the former New York City mayor and Trump attorney; Epshteyn, a Trump campaign official and attorney; former Trump campaign and White House official Mike Roman; former Trump attorney Jenna Ellis; former Trump attorney Christina Bobb; and John Eastman, another attorney and Trump legal adviser in the aftermath of the 2020 election.

Whoo, doggies, that’s a whole troop of buffoons right there. For example, you will note that among them is Mike Roman, the guy who tried to derail Fani Willis’s prosecution in Georgia over a distraction about her love life. Three other Arizona indictees are also indicted in that prosecution, not that it was a national conspiracy or anything. Also, the grand jury reaped a rich harvest among Arizona Republicans.

Also among those charged in Arizona is Kelli Ward, who served as chair of the Arizona GOP during the 2020 election and the immediate aftermath. She tweeted on Jan. 6, 2021, after the attack on the U.S. Capitol: “Congress is adjourned. Send the elector choice back to the legislatures.”

Ward was a Trump elector and a consistent propagator of false claims that Arizona’s election results were rigged. Others charged along with Ward as “fake electors” were: state legislators Anthony Kern and Jake Hoffman; Michael Ward, Kelli Ward’s husband; Tyler Bowyer, the Republican National Committee’s Arizona committeeman and the chief operating officer of the Trump-aligned Turning Point USA; Greg Safsten, the former Arizona GOP executive director; former U.S. Senate candidate Jim Lamon; Robert Montgomery, the former head of the Cochise County GOP; and Republican Party activists Samuel Moorhead, Nancy Cottle and Loraine Pellegrino.
