Readers might recall that back in April, a grand jury in Maricopa County, Arizona, indicted nearly 20 Republicans and associates of Donald Trump, after Democrat state Attorney General Kris Mayes brought a case against 2020 “fake electors” on felony charges of fraud, forgery, and conspiracy:
A grand jury in Arizona has handed down indictments against 11 Arizona Republicans at the center of the “fake elector” controversy of 2020 – in which Republicans were attempting to nominate and send “alternate” electors to Washington D.C. – electors who supported the theory that the 2020 election was stolen.

He wrote:
“It does matter if your chromosomes are made up of ‘XY.’ It matters even more if your skin color is characterized as ‘white’ or Caucasian. We must speak out. We must tell those within our circles of influence that this s**t must stop. NOW!
