🧵 of Arizona politicians & candidates grifting off the lie of “decertification” after the results Maricopa “audit."

Two things to note: 1. The audit report didn’t allege fraud or call for decertification, Doug Logan doesn’t even agree with it 2. Decertification is not a thing.
(Obviously) First is Sen. Wendy Rogers, queen of the decertification grift.

Wendy been non-stop calling to decertify the 2020 election (not her race though) and fundraising off of it. Her “petition to decertify”even kicks you to a donation page, lul.
Wendy built her celebrity off this audit so she ain’t stopping now.
She’ll also be at the Vegas Qcon later this month talking about decertification with a bunch of Q influencers, Ron Watkins, & fellow AZ republicans Rep. Mark Finchem, Sen. Sonny Borrelli, & Rep. Leo Biasiucci.
There's also a site selling ugly "Decertify AZ" merch (including masks) that links you to Wendy's petition.
Rep. Finchem and SOS candidate is simultaneously campaigning and fundraising to "audit Pima County" and also "decertify Arizona." (?)

Probably significant that the person who wants to run the Arizona elections is running with this grift.

Rep. Finchem also been publicly supporting Tina Peters and her definitely illegal actions in Colorado after they both appeared at Mike Lindell's Cyber Symposium.

Top republican gubernatorial candidate and local clown, Kari Lake, has also been campaigning and grifting off the lie of “decertification” usually alongside Steve Bannon. She's appeared on his show promoting "decertification" and co-hosted the Cyber Symposium with him.
IMO, Kari truly highlights the “decertify” grift. Months into the audit, she admitted in a Steve Bannon interview she even didn’t know anything about the audit. After his disappointment in her answer, she’s changed her tune and has been riding the scam ever since.
Senate candidate, president of the Thiel Foundation, and noted ghoul Blake Masters is also by calling for "decertification" on (surprise surprise) Steve Bannon’s show.
A list of Arizona republicans also signed on to Wendy Roger’s letter to decertify. Almost everyone on this list also called for the Maricopa elections to be decertified back in December 2020. Full list of includes 3 AZ state senators and 9 representatives.
Sen. Townsend signed her name onto Wendy's list and has also called for "decertification" but seems to have hurt herself in confusion after she FINALLY Googled that decertification might not even be a thing 😱.

This woman has a career in politics, smfh.
We also have Kelli Ward, chairman of the entire @AZGOP calling for decertification, as well as the main funders of the audit, including Patrick Byrne, Lin Wood, Michael Flynn.

The other main outlets that have been promoting the lie of "decertification" are The Gateway Pundit & OAN aka the same disinformation rags that spread a bunch of BS during the election & audit. And of course, Jordan Conradson & Christina Bobb are the loudest voices.

Well, Liz Harris and her rogue canvassers aren’t stopping any time soon. Their newest email says “we are not done canvassing."

Instead, they're expanding the door knocking nationwide and “awaiting more details” to canvass Pima & Santa Cruz County and “the entire Navajo Nation."
"Are you aware of what we're doing?"
Unfortunately.
Interesting in this Gateway Pundit interview with “audit” volunteers where several also admit to being involved in the canvassing.

Audit halted from doing canvassing? They did it anyway. Audits/canvassing aren’t being approved nationwide like they want? They're trying it anyway.

Oh great, Biggs. 🙄
Watch here - Reps. Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar are on the Oversight Committee so this should go well.
Throwback to when Biggs was hanging out at the audit site with Ken Bennett, who is a witness today.

Well, that was weird. Here's some notes for the day. This was essentially a small meetup on the Senate lawn of about 50 people, mostly Proud Boys. Some politicians backed out but @BlackmanForAZ still spoke and even gave a shoutout to the AZ Proud Boys for being ""patriots."" 😐
Other speakers included: former representative Anthony Kern, Proud Boy associate Micajah Jackson, congressional candidate Jeff Zink, Cowboy's for Trump founder Couy Griffin, and... former NFL running back Jerone Davison for some reason?
Look Ahead America's local chapter (Look Ahead Arizona) organized today's small mostly-Proud Boy rally. Julie Fisher was the host today. Fisher and former Secretary of State Ken Bennett are both involved with Look Ahead's leadership team.

Here we go, Maricopa “audit” report day thread. I will be sharing anything of note at the capitol today, mute if you DGAF.

I’m worthless with data and numbers so follow @JerodMacEvoy, @Garrett_Archer, @get_innocuous, @JenAFifield, @jeremyduda, etc. for all that.
The draft report may have been leaked, but this thing is going to be 3-hours with another hour of “debriefing” on the Senate lawn w/ a bunch of the AZGOP, so who knows how they’re going to try to spin this. Seeya later! Image
At the Crazy Towns Carnival, I mean AZ state capitol & the "anti-vax" rally is going on. They're also setting up chairs to watch the hearing later.

Already saw a small accident in the parking lot & walked up to Kari Lake arguing with someone on stage so it's already going well. ImageImageImage
