The Fulton County Grand Jury considering evidence against former Pres. Trump and associates is voting at this moment. And it is now confirmed they are voting on indictments connected to the scheme(s) to overturn the results of the 2020 election to benefit ex-Pres. Trump. [as opposed to voting to break for the evening]

When @merissahamilton went out of her way to claim her org, EZAZ, is non-partisan, I thought it odd timing. So I looked into it.

I have some questions. 🧵 Image If you read this account with regularity, first, 'thank you.' And, dear readers, you know how puzzled I am about the relationship between Ms. Hamilton and Bigly Loser @karilake. At one point Sam Stone said Hamilton's EZAZ was running Ms. Lake's new "ballot chase" scam. ⤵️

A few weeks back @kariLake held a presser to announce her new plan to "chase ballots," in upcoming elections, or as she described it, "Bringing a gun to a knife fight." She introduced @merissahamilton as the person who would be in charge. 🧵 The way Ms. Hamilton & Ms. Lake described the project left me with more questions than answers but some of my questions are becoming clearer. I wanted to know if Hamilton was going to be a new hire into Lake's "Saving Arizona Fund," or a new organization.
Neither, apparently. ⤵️ Image

Two things:
1. Uganda just passed an anti-LGBTQ bill that amounts to genocide.
2. And @SpenceRogers runs AZ Sen. @WendyRogersAZ campaign.

When @tedcruz tweeted this... ImageImageImage @SpenceRogers & @WendyRogersAZ (with her own long history w/ anti-LGBTQ extremism) are now on the record as for the death penalty for LGBTQ persons.

I mentioned yesterday the @AZFreedomCaucus is a front for a Washington DC group. There's one more piece of info I want to share. The person the DC crowd picked to handle the Arizona Legislature. (and it's someone with zero ties to AZ) ⤵️ Image It's NOT this dude, but many of the bios for the DC office have weirdly vague CV deets. ⤵️ Image

Since 1990 the PAC operated by Target has given more $$ to Republicans in all but 3 election cycles.⤵️

opensecrets.org/political-acti… The PAC may have a policy to appear non-partisan in their donations but we are very early in this cycle and they've already put $2K in @JuanCiscomani's account.

Hey, @JuanCiscomani, got a comment about the current Target debate? You seem to have skin in the game.⤵️ Image

Between the rants and when she wasn't attempting to settle scores, yesterday @KariLake announced she's setting up an organization to, as she described it, "chase ballots."
Chasing ballots is a term from a broader effort I have always called 'GOTV' or Get Out The Vote. 🧵 Since Lake lost a statewide race, called 191 days ago, I will frame my remarks here on statewide campaigns.

Campaigns chase ballots. They always have. "Chasing ballots" in the Lake wording isn't an invention. And more importantly, it isn't an example of a lesson learned.⤵️

I don't know why Bowyer is complaining. Sinema is an indy who has yet to announce if she's running again. Lankford doesn't have a race in '24.
Bowyer is another super-genius who decided "chasing ballots" is the fix to what happened to them in 2022 and they invented it. Image Sinema and Lankford were in Cochise County talking about a fix to our immigration system. That's going to require 60 votes in the Senate. Image

"We're going to show up to a knife fight with a gun, not a knife." --- @KariLake promising to cheat at a knife fight. @merissahamilton is announced by @KariLake as the leader of her effort to run GOTV the way everybody already knew how to run GOTV.
Hamilton is, btw, a whack job with many public statements from multiple extremist positions.

This 👇🏽veto👇🏽is significant to so many families in AZ but it also brings to the surface so much stealthy conservative politics.
I'm that old gay guy who's been watching & doing AZ politics for over 30 years and I'm going to share some things w/ you some things in this thread. 🧵 1⃣ Having a Democrat who cares about all families doesn't just mean shitty bills get vetoed. It means some of the worst parts of a shitty bill, like SB1001, get left out because 'CONS' know it will get vetoed. If Kari Lake had won there would be a deeply disturbing bill, ...⤵️

Alleged wife-beater @SonnyBorrelli sent a letter to AZ County Boards of Supervisors. In his best Joe Pesci impersonation, Borrelli falsely claims the legislature rescinded ARS 16-443.

I'm not an academic. I'll never be the brightest bulb on the Xmas tree.

But...

But I've watched power. I've seen how Conservatives demand power, insisting they possess the values to utilize that power to improve the lives of others. 🧵 I've seen how when those outside Conservatism get power it's *always* conservatives who say that power is too dangerous in those hands. That *FREEDOM* is at stake.
