I’m live from the Jackson Lahmeyer event with Wendy whoever from Arizona and a Republican primary challenger for @GovStitt

I’m currently undercover in a United States Deputy Sheriff Association Supporter shirt I found at a thrift store today /1

“We aren’t going to 2022 or 2024 until we fix 2020!” The crowd stood with roaring applause. /2

Current speaker is discussing @SenatorLankford and people in the crowd are piping up with “he’s a rhino” /3

The crowd is getting angrier and angrier being prodded by the speaker about Afghan refugees & “child brides” “James Lankford is importing terrorists” /4

“You guys like Margorie Taylor Green?” Crowd roaring with applause /5

The organizers said they were sold out but I’m sitting in the back of the room with plenty of empty seats /6

James Lankford official flip flops, super weak, made in China, he says /7

Jackson is on stage and he’s flanked at least by anti-mask regulars. He’s talking about how he was told he couldn’t beat Lankford because he had a beard and old ladies don’t like men with facial hair lol /8

Says all of his money in the first quarter was raised by individual donors from Oklahoma.

Mocking Lankford for taking pac money from Pfizer and black stone

/9

Saying he hasn’t ever met hills try Clinton and he has proof because he’s still alive. /10

Apparently president Trumps pastor will be in Oklahoma soon /11

Saying @POTUS is the former Vice President and is illegally occupying the Oval Office /12

“We need strong men and strong women to stand up and fight.” /13

On my seat, took this picture right when Jackson was saying “election integrity matters”. /14

Talking about how Lankford apologized to the Black community for questioning the integrity of the election and everyone is sneering
/15

Jackson says he was THE delegation from the State of Oklahoma to Arizona to oversee “fraud” says we are going to love the results coming out of Maricopa County /16

Wendy Rogers (state Senator from Arizona) BIG big lie supporter.

Side note, a lady behind me is cutting her nails and it’s making my skin crawl /17

Jackson says he’s sick of playing defense, it’s time for us all to start playing offense. Also we need to support Mike Lindell and my pillow /18

Jackson just asked if there are any fighters in Tulsa, met with round of applause. Now clay walker is receiving standing round of applause for reasons I don’t understand /19

Clay just announced that there will be a standing Q&A townhall style portion of the night. I might ask her a question lol. Gotta Google her /20

This is so gross, Clay Walker just made a sex joke about Mariah Carey. Very homophobic tone from this guy as well. Says we need more “table flipping pastors” /21

Standing ovation for Wendy Rogers. Her entire purpose here is to plant seeds of fear and paranoia. This is a purely anti-“RINO” speech. /22

Rogers says it took months to find a competent organization to conduct the audit - the ninja people auditing the Arizona election has never audited an election before. /23

“Cyber ninjas. They are an app security company and they’re the best. The best of the best.” Again, cyber ninjas has never audited an election. /24

Sci-fer, Rogers says, is a group used by the federal government and they discovered widespread breaches across every application used by folks with security clearances/25

Not covering Wendy anymore because she’s boring. One fun note, her daughter is an RN who apparently told their family not to take the vaccine /26

Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Sherwood should be up next which I’m sure will be interesting. Going to try and get an interview with him afterwards. 👀
/27

Actually one more on her, there’s been a really disturbing/veiled anti-military anti-government sentiment led by Rogers. /28

From @TheOklahoman_ “A licensed minister, motivational speaker and former bodybuilder, Sherwood spent 24 years with the Tulsa Police Department, retiring in 2013 as a lieutenant. Sherwood and his wife have co-authored several books about wellness and host a weekly tv program” /29

Mark Sherwood was a registered independent until Sept. 1.

Side note - Wendy Rogers just called people “invalids or whatever” *not verbatim but just as gross /30

Rogers is still going on about ballots. She’s channeling the grandma vibe and the room loves it.

Now Clay Walker is going to host a Q&A BUT FIRST he’s going to sell some James Lankford inspired flip flops /31

Omg. Clay walker just said if there’s anyone out there who needs to lose 10lbs or so just don’t eat one day a week and use that money you save to support Jackson. This is an odd approach /32

This is a straight up church, pass the donation bowl around thing. Music playing. What the fuck lol. /33

This is really something. They are doing this straight up like donating at church /34

Chants of USA have broken out. /35

Time for rapid fire Q&A lol. People from the crowd can raise hands for questions. First guy asks about the watermarks on the Arizona ballots. Cool cool. /36

Clay asks Jackson if he would be willing to debate @SenatorLankford and he says Lankford refused to debate him and this October he will debate a cardboard cut out if Lankford won’t show for it /37

Sherwood is a “naturopathic doctor” who he says has treated thousands of covid patients and healed them /38

Oklahoma State Rep. Sean Roberts is here and joining up with the Arizona stop the steal effort apparently/39

In the lobby. Lots of loud chatted that makes the political comms person in me cringe. But it feels nice and I can social distance /35

I got a long interview with Sherwood. Stopped to ask Jackson on the way out to recent reporting on social media about his marriage to a minor and he was not amused and told me to leave lol
