Good day all. This blew up a couple of weeks ago, but due to other things, I haven’t been able to comment on it, until now. The now former chairman of the Arizona State Republican Party waas forced to resign after it came out that he tried to bribe Senate Candidate Kari Lake to not run for office.
Kari Lake ran for governor in 2022 and lost under questionable circumstances. She has been talking about the disaster that is Maricopa County’s election system, as well as other problems with the 2022 elections. Now that former Democrat Kyrsten Sinema up for reelection, (Sinema left the party about a year ago), Kari Lake threw her hat into the ring.
This led to the old Firebug McCain Republicans to throw a fit. The last thing they want is another supporter of the Greatest President of the 21st Century, Donald Trump, making it into the Senate. This led to the Chairman of the State GOP to try and pressure Lake to drop out. Unfortunately for Jeff DeWit, Kari Lake recorded the conversation. Now he has resigned. Here are the details from Arizona’s Family:
The Chairman of the Arizona Republican Party has resigned amid a growing number of calls to step down after a British tabloid released clips of him reportedly trying to “bribe” former gubernatorial candidate and television news anchor Kari Lake to not run for Senate.
The verified audio recording obtained by the Daily Mail reveals party chair Jeff DeWit asking Lake to “Just say, is there a number at which,” that appears to signify Lake to essentially “name her price.” Lake is heard in the audio tape taking offense to the remark, stating, “I can be bought? That’s what it’s about.” The clip continues with DeWit saying: “You can take a pause for a couple of years. You can go right back to what you’re doing.” To which Lake replies, “This is not about money, it’s about our country.”
At the time of the recording last March, Lake was waging an unsuccessful court fight challenging her loss in the 2022 race for Arizona governor and gearing up for a U.S. Senate campaign. Meanwhile, Republicans in Washington, bruised by a disappointing showing in the midterms, were talking openly about plans to seek GOP Senate nominees who would be more viable in general elections.
I mentioned that Kari Lake was challenging the results of the 2022 election. The mess that is Maricopa County is well known. What wasn’t talked a lot about was another county reporting that they had some issues with their vote count and the election officials asking for time to verify everything. They were threatened with arrest by the secretary of states office if they didn’t announce that Katie Hobbs had won.
As for the GOP wanting more RINO’s to run, this was all due to the RNC and Cocaine Mitch “Brainfeeze” McConnell pulling the rug out from under a number of viable candidates at the last minute. The reason for this? None of them were going to support McConnell and all of them support President Trump and the idea of Making America Great Again.
DeWit said in a statement announcing his exit that the tape was “selectively edited” and used in a “deceptive” way. He claims that despite the conversation appearing against Lake, she was actually employed by him in DeWit’s private company. DeWit claims since that conversation, that Lake has been on a “mission to destroy” him.
Well, the answer to “Selectively editing” the recording is to release the entire recording. I will state that I have not heard the recording and make no claims regarding it being edited or not.
“I said things I regret, but I realize when hearing Lake’s recording that I was set up. I believe she orchestrated this entire situation to have control over the state party,” the statement read in part. The decision to step down on Wednesday was part of an “ultimatum,” DeWit said, adding that the Lake campaign threatened the release of a “more damaging” recording. “I am truly unsure of its contents, but considering our numerous past open conversations as friends, I have decided not to take the risk,” DeWit said.
“I am resigning as Lake requested, in the hope that she will honor her commitment to cease her attacks, allowing me to return to the business sector-—a field I find much more logical and prefer over politics,” DeWit continued in the letter, explaining his decision and his plans for the future.
Did she set him up or did Kari lake simply let DeWit run off at the mouth? Kari Lake is a journalist/reporter and knows when to simply sit back and let someone hang themselves. James O’Keefe has built a business on this. DeWit is simply trying to climb out of the hole he dug for himself.
One of the things I’ve read regarding this was that DeWit said that “Higher ups” or “Other people” wanted Lake to drop out and that they were aware of what he, DeWit was doing and supported it.
If that is accurate, then the problem is with the entirety of the Arizona state GOP and potentially others high in the Republican National Committee. It’s well known that the Establishment GOP hates President Trump and has nothing but contempt for his supporters. They would rather lose gracefully and be thrown a financial bone by the Democrats then win elections if it means ceding power and privilege to people they consider yokels.
I don’t know how all this will play out. Senator Sinema is running as an independent and is being challenged on the left by the Democrats and on the Right by Kari Lake. With the invasion of illegal aliens thanks to the Democrat’s throwing open the border, it’s probably going to come down to KarI Lake and Krysten Sinema. Who will win? We will find out in November. I suspect I know who is going to lose, and it’s going to the the Arizona RINO’s.

I knew Arizona was messed up when they called the state for China Joe before the polls closed
