Arizona senate candidate Kari Lake on Wednesday said her campaign was 'a good-versus-evil battle', lashing out against the 'corruption' of the political establishment which tried to convince her to leave politics. Lake, a staunchly pro-Trump former TV news anchor, held a live social media Q&A after a tumultuous few days. On Tuesday, DailyMail.com published audio of the head of Arizona's Republican party, Jeff DeWit, offering her money to get out of politics. The clip was recorded in March 2023 - four months after her unsuccessful bid to become governor of Arizona, and when she was weighing her political future. On Wednesday, DeWit resigned, and accused Lake's team of attempting to blackmail him. Lake on Wednesday night said DeWit's behavior was evidence of the 'corruption' plaguing the United States, and trashed his resignation letter - pointing out he did not apologize to the people of Arizona.

You’ll have to assume that most of them are bought, until proven innocent.

We can see that Trump and Kari Lake are innocent, since the corrupt ones are attacking them with lawfare.

It’s even on CNN. Giving Lake major ammunition. I bet it’s McConnell.

It's not really either. It's called trying to buy someone off. If a person isn't in public office, it's not a bribe. However, trying to buy someone off frequently comes before violence when that fails.

One doesn’t need to be in public office for a bribe to be legitimate.

Kari needs out prayers.

The article says that someone on her team attempted to blackmail DeWit.
Note that the title includes the word “blackmail” presuming that she, or her team was guilty!

I sent her campaign the best donation I could give yesterday after seeing the video.

Just curious.
Anyone think she might get asked to run as VP on the President Trump ticket?

This story about attempting to bribe Lake should galvanize everyone to the main idea that what the MAGA/Trump movement is all about is this:
Evil and corruption VS Good and the American way of life.
We have to look across ALL those political faces and ask ourselves, are they one of those co-opted by some corrupted other entity?
Because THAT is what it’s all about. This is a battle for our rights to self determination.
I hope we all make the right decisions.

This incident just provides a peek behind the scenes into a disgusting reality that we already knew: That the parties pre-determine which candidates we the people will be allowed to “select” from. And they apparently will spare no corrupt practice in pushing their preferences over ours.
Trump was the one exception, and that’s why they burn with hatred toward him.
