GOP-controlled Arizona House votes to expel Republican Representative Liz Harris
CNN ^ | April 12, 2023 | Kyung Lah and Anna-Maja Rappar

(CNN)State Rep. Liz Harris was expelled Wednesday from the Arizona House of Representatives for ethics violations resulting from inviting a conspiracy theorist to publicly testify before lawmakers earlier this year.

The resolution to expel the first-term Republican, elected in November, stated that she had brought "disrepute and embarrassment to the House of Representatives," resulting in "disorderly behavior." Forty-six Arizona representatives in the GOP-controlled House voted to remove her from her elected position, meeting a two-thirds threshold to expel lawmakers. Thirteen members opposed her expulsion.

..... Snip.....

In February, Harris had invited Jacqueline Breger to present findings of what Breger and Harris claimed were an investigation. Breger spewed a number of lies and attacks against public officials, including Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs. One of those lies spread on social media and resulted in Hobbs responding with a joke before cameras saying, "No, I am not involved with the Sinaloa cartel. I'm not taking bribes from them and I'm not laundering their money."

Harris is a well-known conspiracy theorist and election denier in Arizona. She was a constant figure during the GOP-led review of Maricopa County's 2020 ballots. Election experts condemned the review calling it an attempt to overturn the state's election results.

The claim was that there was proof. Time to get that out there in the public.

And so it begins. Yes siree ladies and gentlemen, let us now all unite under the banner of non-thought and repel the evil of self ownership. How much better could it get?

Says the person who refused to even debate her opponent, yet somehow won? Total bull s**t.

I write pieces occasionally for American Thinker and often post them here. When Jaqueline Braeger did her presentation, I decided to write a piece on it. I spoke to her on the phone and she put me in touch with John Thaler, the lawyer she was working on this whole thing with.

I had an hour-long phone conversation with him. I found him to be very helpful and answered all my questions, even offered up some additional information. I also believed him in what he was saying, after he responded to some questions that had given me cause to doubt the story.

Ultimately, I did not write a piece on this subject, as I could not get my head around the depth of information I was provided and how to condense it into a 1200-word piece that made sense.

But, this is one aspect that should serve to confirm that what Braeger and Thayer are saying is true:

If the info presented was in fact not true, then Braeger committed a defamation of character against Hobbs. So why are the politicos going after Harris and not Braeger or Thaler?

Harris brought in a speaker who accused the majority of her fellow Republicans of taking bribes from Mexican cartels.

A bold move, but you have to expect some push back.

How much more dirty can it get. Expelling an elected member just because they don’t like her. And its those fake Rino’s. Make a list Arizona. never again vote for any of those who voted for this. They are turncoat traitors.

I am not surprised.

I also interviewed a member of the Board of Supervisors, who was at the presentation and was named as one of those receiving money. He is a Republican.

The information presented by Braeger as being corrupted, included: Republicans, Democrats, Judges, County Supervisors, police, a mayor (not in Phoenix) and the "Mormon Mafia" of Arizona. The information they had was extensive, named names and gave specifics.

I was also told that based, in part, on his information, there are investigations underway in five states and the DOJ is involved.

As I said in an earlier post, it was a lot, too much for me to fully get my head around. I decided writing it up, would not be productive.

This is nothing more than a CNN hit job filled with unsubstantiated innuendo and outright lies. I hope she brings suit against this filthy Leftist CNN propaganda machine.

So did Harris in 2020. I was so happy when she won in November, so it’s a shame to see this happening to her now. I’d like to see the final list of yeas and nays.
