With quite a few people asking me for details on the disagreement within the AZGOP as it relates to its bylaws and an audit of the January 23rd party election, I thought it would be simpler to put it into writing and leave it on this blog so that anyone could access it at their own convenience. Years from now, it may also be beneficial to have some sort of a written record, should history repeat itself in some way.
No issue has been weaponized by the left and the Democratic Party like the issue of race. Their goal has not been to bring Americans together or to make progress where racial harmony or equality is concerned, but to divide us and pit us against one another, more often than not at the expense of racial harmony and equality.
The Jussie Smollett hoax will still be some time working itself out as additional facts are brought to light, but what we know so far is that the gay actor who says he “comes really really hard at 45 (Trump)” appears to have tried to make a martyr of himself by staging an attack that was supposed to be a homophobic violent assault by Trump-supporting, MAGA hat-wearing villains. His calculus was simple – the left wants to believe that Trump and his supporters are homophobic bigots (Smollett is black as well which feeds the racist narrative as a bonus, since initial reports were that his attackers were white) and the media won’t question the story before running with it.
In the rush to claim victory for Democrats, many pundits are missing that the most likely effect of the House takeover will not be any major policy victories for the left, but rather a long-term benefit to President Trump and his 2020 re-election effort.
Arizona is in the minority when it comes to our Corporation Commission. Most states do not have an elected Commission like Arizona does, and the last several elections have made it clear that real change needs to come to the Commission soon. I’m not talking about changing who gets elected, but changing from an elected commission to an appointed commission.
