Nevada just became the third state (after Georgia and Michigan) to criminally indict fake electors. Arizona should be number four. It's time. via

Just an FYI from a one-time Catholic school boy. The good Sisters of St. Joseph who taught at St. Titus Elementary used to say: "If you brag about it, it's not charity."
While the press doesn’t like writing about it, nor do I need them to, I donate my yearly Presidential salary of $400,000.00 to different agencies throughout the year, this to Homeland Security. If I didn’t do it there would be hell to pay from the FAKE NEWS MEDIA!
READER: A co-worker told me he's against Garcia because he wants to abolish ICE. I told him a governor can't abolish a federal agency. He didn't believe me. ME: Proof that education is the most important issue in the election. via

READER: I have no trouble with Trump coming to town. That’s politics. But churches shouldn’t be hosting politicians. Unless they pay taxes. Congress should act. Are they afraid of the churches, the congregations, Trump? ME: Yes x 3. via

If you graduated at the top of your journalism class, yet do not understand the role of a columnist, then what happened to YOU was an education scam, and you should demand your money back.

How about reporting the news and letting the reader draw the conclusion? I graduated at the top of my J class. What happened to you?
READER: When wealthy parents who are already paying for private school have the option to take taxpayer money they don’t need from middle class parents, that’s not school choice. That’s legalized larceny. ME: Robin Hood in reverse. via

READER: It's crazy to me that Gosar had no opponent last time around. Please tell me there is someone running against him this time. ME: There is. His name is Quacy Smith, a lawyer, retired Marine and former police officer. Google him. via

Actually, they ruled that you “misrepresented” to the Court that you had sought appellate relief and nailed you with attorneys’ fees. So, which is your excuse, dishonesty or incompetence?
The
@azcentral
is doing a tremendous disservice to the people of Arizona by letting

lie like this.
This is not journalism. This is regime propaganda.
The Supreme Court ruled on process. Not merit.

's case is still alive.
He was a legal U.S. resident and a Washington Post columnist, and he was murdered by operatives of a foreign government. If that doesn't mean anything to us, then what we supposedly stand for doesn't mean anything.
READER: We have to recognize that these people did not submit "fake" electoral documents, they submitted "fraudulent" electoral documents. They committed "fraud" against the people of Arizona ME: Excellent point. via
@azcentral
READER: It’s not rhetorical. It’s understatement. My daughter lives in (the state of) Victoria, Australia. It is similar to Arizona (in size and population). They lost 1,858. We lost 21,525. That is not ineptitude. That is criminal.

Arizonan Republicans elected a woman who posts this on the anniversary of the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, that left 26 people dead, including 20 first graders. It would be sick from anyone, let alone an elected official.
Rep. Ruben Gallego is now asking the U.S. Attorney General to investigate. Says in a letter to the AG that the Republic's report raises 'serious legal concern under both federal and Arizona state election law.' via
@azcentral
READER: Would it be too much to ask this woman to take off her MAGA hat, put on a thinking cap (as they say in kindergarten) and discuss what she'd do about the water crisis, education and other, you know, ACTUAL issues? ME: Yes, it would. via
@azcentral
READER: I moved to Arizona ten years ago and there has never not been a border crisis or politicians blaming each other for it and then doing nothing to solve it. ME: I've lived here FORTY years. Same. via
@azcentral
X is a private entity. Barring a man who lied about the massacre of children and defamed their mourning parents – for profit – is not censorship. It’s common decency. Supporting and enabling such a vile person is a disgrace. via

You're correct, Abe. I'm deeply troubled…by cultists who put Trump over country, put conspiracy theories over truth and put personal ambition over everything.
The propagandists at

READER: In her op-ed she claims she's independent because that is what Arizona voted for. Actually it is not. We voted you in as a Democrat. If you wanted to be an "independent" you should have ran as one. ME: Good point. via

@azcentral
READER: This slays me. So much good can be done with $100 million. How many teachers? Civic improvements. Hunger abatement. Health care for the poor. It's difficult to imagine something that kind of money CAN'T buy. ME: Outrage, maybe. via

READER: Did you notice Ducey ignoring his own advice about masks at Trump's superspreader event in Prescott? Why would he do that? ME: Politics over people. Seems to be a campaign theme.

READER: Judges are at the end of what will be a very long the ballot and there are so many names I worry people won't remember, won't care and won't vote for a change. ME: In this instance I believe they will, they will and they will. via
@azcentral
READER: Arizona can be a horrible political place, the way GOP lawmakers try to run our lives. But it’s also a wonderful place, where a brave woman like Burch is willing to speak up for herself and for the rest of us. ME: True and true. via
@azcentral
READER: If voters heard only that a native Arizonan, family man, Army vet with a doctorate, was running for governor, they'd love him. Ducey's people are using fear, misinformation and Garcia's ethnicity to scare us. ME: Is it working? via

Trick or Treaters are arriving in our neighborhood by way of parent-driven CARAVANS. Alert the President Trump! They are sweet, grateful, beautiful kids, but he may want to send troops to ward off the super heros, Star Wars storm troopers and Little Mermaids.
READER: He was 16 and said something stupid. Why punish him? ME: Not punishment. Competition. Thousands apply to Harvard. Universities check social media. Harvard could find an equally qualified student who did NOT post racist slurs. via
