Kari Lake, a former journalist now running for the Republican Party’s nomination to be the next Governor of Arizona, has promised to complete unfinished portions of border wall in her state, even if it means building on federal lands in defiance of Joe Biden.
Lake made the remarks during an appearance on Tim Pool’s podcast, and later uploaded an excerpt to her Twitter account. “Is Joe Biden going to send officials in to arrest a sitting Governor,” wrote Lake. “Try me.”
“Now we’re seeing a crisis,” Lake said in the interview. “First of all, we need to sue the federal government for failing to protect us, and while that lawsuit is working its way through the system, let’s go down and start building the wall,” she explained. “We have many, many miles of Arizona state land we can be building it on, and let’s finish these little gaps.”
“They’re coming through a funnel where there’s a gap in the President’s wall,” said Lake, “And it is on federal land, but let’s build the wall anyway, what’s Joe Biden going to do? Arrest a sitting governor? I mean honestly.”
Pool asked if Lake thought Biden would, and Pool’s cohost suggested that it was possible. Lake said she would welcome such a development if elected.
“I would welcome that challenge, because he’s failing at his duty,” said Lake. “The federal government is failing us in Arizona.”

“Kari Lake has donated to Obama, supported Merrick (sp) Garland , been a Dem, Independent and now Republican.”
All true. She’s been on War Room a few times and I keep hoping Bannon will ask her about that. As far as I know, he hasn’t. At least I’ve never heard it.
i don’t trust that she is sincere in anything but just to get elected herself.
She spewed lies to the public way too many years on tv news. now she wakes up and wants to be governor???
what about 2008? she helpedvote for barry O.
I agree, I really have reservations about Lake ...she talks a good line. I have the fear that she will say ANYTHING to get elected. She comes off as maybe too smooth.
