Wherever a Republican Attorney General effectively targets the anti-American revolutionary left for righteous prosecution, the many NGOs that openly support this sedition rush in to fund campaigns to destroy them using bogus ethics violations claims. So far, more than half of the nation’s Republican Attorney Generals have been targeted by groups like the 65 Project, which is responsible for more than half of these filings.
In two instances, elected Attorney Generals from Montana and Indiana now face ethics violations charges because they disagreed with their state supreme court’s definition of abortion. Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita said of efforts to target him, “The goal is to chill me. The goal is to shut me up.”

Half of Republican state attorneys general and many of their immediate predecessors have faced ethics challenges to their law licenses since 2022, according to Federalist research. The majority were filed by The 65 Project in retaliation for joining the 2020 constitutional litigation Texas v. Pennsylvania, which demanded that Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin follow their election laws.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is battling multiple politicized ethics charges two years after those filed over Texas v. Pennsylvania. The elected attorneys general of Montana and Indiana, who weren’t in office to join Texas v. Pennsylvania, now also face ethics charges not for gross misconduct but for disagreeing with the state supreme court and accurately describing an abortionist, respectively.
“The goal is to chill me,” said Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita in a phone interview about ethics complaints against his law license. “The goal is to shut me up.”
