Cowboys for Trump co-founder charged with campaign violations. New Mexico resident Couy Griffin is accused of not filing his group as political committee to the state election board. Griffin claims if he had to do this, he would have to disclose all of their doing and contributions. (Well no shit). He appealed his case to a federal court and they upheld the lower courts ruling. He faces a misdemeanor charge?
Oh, the irony! The GOPers accuses everyone else with fraud and BOOM, another Trump case falls flat on its face, because they tried to defraud the the election and how they conduct business!
Story from the Associated Press.

He won his seat in Congress by perpetrating fraud and then as Trump's CoC he helped perpetuate the stop the steal myth.
What hypocritical pieces of shit all of these assholes are.

(51,129 posts)SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) A New Mexico elected official was charged Friday with a misdemeanor campaign finance violation for refusing to register his political group Cowboys for Trump, the state's attorney general announced.
Couy Griffin, a Republican county commissioner from Tularosa in southern New Mexico, has been facing off with state election regulators for more than a year over whether he needs to register the group as a political committee.
