It’s time for the conservatives to stop being the ones who always compromise for “unity”. There can only be true unity under conservative, constitutional principles. Everything else is uniparty corruption & it’s destroying our country.
"The natural progress of things is for the government to gain ground and for liberty to yield." - Thomas Jefferson
This is an instructive quote given the current Speaker fight in DC. The Democrats are unified in their desire for government to gain ground.

The county lobbyist testified yesterday that signature verifiers look up your voting history & identify your party affiliation before they “verify” your signature. Now I have even LESS confidence in elections than I did before. What a corrupt, clearly partisan, biased process!
I’ve asked Hobbs to provide me with all records & correspondence between her office and this organization regarding her secret elections task force. Seems like a conflict of interest for an outside group that has represented Hobbs in elections contests to assist the task force.
Everyone should be aware, that Katie Hobbs wrote that language. 👇It’s her language & her guidelines that she just vetoed… I wonder if she even knows that. We specifically put that language through as a test to see if she’s even reading these bills. What a clueless idiot! 🤣🤦🏻♀️

The vote was bipartisan in house (47-13), but party line in Senate (16-14).
I am ashamed to say I would not give this fellow a second thought if I passed him in the street. Having watched this speech, however, I am now in awe of his eloquence and patriotism.
Maricopa County is the new Zimbabwe.
In AZ, Recorder Richer & SOS Fontes are actually training poll workers to allow ballot harvesting in violation of state law. They are actively training people to allow everyone to drop off as many ballots as they want & never stop them or say anything. 🤦🏻♀️

Great point. This is what people need to understand: Illegal aliens are not being imported to vote themselves.
They are here to provide Democrat operatives with the opportunity to ballot harvest and to drop the ballots off at inner city drop boxes in swing states.
You can tell
Bennett, Fontes, & Maricopa County tried slipping poison pill language into 3 different bills that will legally allow counties to NOT verify signatures. Very sneaky. Not sneaky enough though. They plan to bring it back.🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️Warn your reps!

is Arizona's very own Ron Burgundy.
She's wedded to the teleprompter and she'll VETO anything that's put in front of her. Even when it's language that she herself (supposedly) wrote.
She's not even reading these bills.
Hobbs isn't a Governor. She's a clown.
Did Hobbs even watch the hearing? Cullen was a complete embarrassment & it would be highly suspect if she’s ever hired for anything again after that performance. 🤦🏻♀️🤣 thank you Senator Hoffman & the Republicans in the committee for sparing Arizonans from such a disaster.

Because of Hobbs being complicit with & a product of the problems, we are not going to be able to change the law until she’s out or R’s have a supermajority. County officials are going to have to do the right thing on their own, or the people are going to have to make them do it.

We actually had language ready to go last summer for an AZ border protection force that would now be in law protecting Arizonans if we had a legitimate governor.
The Freedom Caucus consists of Republicans most committed to upholding the Constitution & preserving personal freedom. For years this was just a federal congressional organization, but now it’s spreading to the states! I’m proud to be a founding member of the AZ Freedom Caucus!
Hobbs hasn’t bothered to respond to my request for more information yet. Safe to say that her task force is not interested in transparency & the House Elections Committee will swiftly reject any election-related recommendations of this biased, corrupt, & secretive “task force”.
I’ve asked Hobbs to provide me with all records & correspondence between her office and this organization regarding her secret elections task force. Seems like a conflict of interest for an outside group that has represented Hobbs in elections contests to assist the task force.
Except we’re not really doing the people’s work in the legislature are we… the people want: sweeping, significant election reform/ secure borders/ smaller government/ lower taxes/ transparency (esp in education spending). We’re doing NONE of that.
We can definitely do that. It just requires CUTTING spending & shrinking government, eliminating unnecessary programs, & a dedicated commitment to giving the people’s money back to the people. I’m in.
"I want to eventually get rid of the income tax if we can do that, I haven’t made that promise because I don’t want to make a promise that I can’t keep.
But I want to get it down to as close to zero as possible so we can compete with some of these other states.”

Lol, you were there… it was during the 1st bill & she was talking about signature verification & she said that. I asked a clarifying question “are you saying the signature verification employee can look up a person’s voting record while verifying a signature?” She said yes.
@DavidCaltabiano
For her reference
@stahlhamilton
: separation of church & state simply means there should be no official, state-sanctioned religion (like the Church of England). Maybe try reading idk… any founding document if you need proof that church & state were never intended to be separate.

I could not endorse Gina Swoboda enthusiastically enough for AZGOP Chair. If there’s any hope of saving our state & our party, it starts with Gina taking the reins.

My voters elected me knowing I’m “100% pro-life”. That’s NOT 95% or anything else & that standard doesn’t change with the tide. This is the easiest decision I’ve ever had to make as an elected official: the court ruling &the pre-Roe law should absolutely stand & hallelujah for it
YOUR TAXPAYER DOLLARS AT WORK: this is apparently the new logo for Maricopa County. Looks like they are officially flipping off the state they just thoroughly screwed over & embarrassed in front of the entire county. 🤔 Subtle guys…
This attempt to blame Republicans for the border crisis WHILE Democrats are in power is the most pathetic & absurd attempt at gaslighting we’ve seen yet. Democrats must think the people are truly clueless. 🤦🏻♀️🤯
Democrats in Congress have shifted to blame the border crisis on Republicans.
Title 8 allows Joe Biden to close the border whenever he deems it necessary.
This rogue Administration refuses to enforce our laws.
Women in AZ have always been free to decide what we want to do with our bodies (except during the covid mandate period where we were forced to wear masks & get injections). We should never be allowed to violently kill babies & rip THEIR bodies apart for our own convenience.
FYI, this ruling likely would NOT have happened, had the legislature passed Bennett’s SB1518 earlier this year. It had poison pill language that would have allowed counties to avoid signature verification all together. The House MOE committee killed that language 3 times! 🤔
.
@KariLake
has been right this whole time
"A judge has found that Arizona's signature matching process for mail-in ballots is unlawful, delivering what the plaintiffs in the lawsuit called a "massive win" for election integrity."
This level of overreach & disregard for human life constitutes an impeachable offense.

It’s amazing how unqualified politicians are to make so many decisions that affect our lives. I’m convinced the only solution is to shrink the size & power of gov’t to such a small extent, that the ONLY topic of conversation is security & then maybe a legit solution will arise.🤦🏻♀️
The Senate border bill is the worst idea on border “security”— EVER.
Frankly, it makes matters worse than they already are. It is a disaster.
Hard to believe, but this is even more terrible than the old Gang of Eight legislation.

We must put an end to the hyper politicization of the Recorder’s office.

That’s what just a few principled representatives can do. Now back to see if the AZ State legislature has the same gumption! The dangerously radical Hobble will need to be stopped at every turn.

Eliminating and/or lifting the Aggregate Expenditure Limit (AEL) is a betrayal of our duty to every taxpayer in the state. Lifting taxpayer protections so government schools can spend endlessly without transparency is unacceptable.
The unrestricted abortion ballot initiative is completely unconstitutional. It not only contradicts the Dobbs decision, but it turns the entire concept on its head by eliminating any chance for legislative protection of the unborn baby’s own fundamental rights.

Why would an insecure border, which promotes rampant crime, drug & sex trafficking, be a partisan issue? 🤔 Do democrats support sex trafficking? Are they funded by drug cartels? Perhaps these are the questions the media should investigate. 🤯
