Former President Donald Trump has criticized his former Attorney General Bill Barr, despite Barr’s recent endorsement of Trump’s 2024 presidential bid. Trump, known for his vindictive nature, labeled Barr as “weak, slow moving, gutless, and lazy” on his Truth Social platform. This outburst highlights the toxic environment surrounding Trump, who has a history of alienating and attacking even those who express support for him. Meanwhile, the Arizona indictment in the fake elector scheme has indicted several of Trump’s lawyers and strategists, but notably omits attorney Kenneth Chesebro, a key architect of the scheme. Experts speculate that Chesebro’s exclusion may be due to his cooperation with prosecutors or his potential utility as a witness in the federal case against Trump. Additionally, Trump’s legal defense team has reportedly dropped Boris Epshteyn as a client due to the adversarial nature of the Arizona indictment, which charges Epshteyn with election subversion.

The Arizona indictment for the fake elector scheme led to charges against several key figures in Donald Trump’s inner circle, including Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, and others. However, Kenneth Chesebro, a central figure in the scheme, is conspicuously absent. Experts speculate that Chesebro may have cooperated with prosecutors in other states and provided assistance in the Arizona investigation. Meanwhile, Trump lawyer Todd Blanche has dropped Boris Epshteyn as a client due to the Arizona indictment, highlighting potential legal conflicts as Trump faces multiple criminal cases and the possibility of being unable to pardon his associates if he returns to office.
