Recently a news story broke about Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake being asked to step down from politics for two years. She was pretty much offered anything she wanted. She recorded the conversation, fearing it would be a threat, and has recently released the tape.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, The Hill<\/a> reported:<\/p>\n The chair of the Arizona Republican Party\u00a0announced he will resign<\/a>\u00a0Wednesday after leaked audio appeared to show him attempting to pay Senate candidate Kari Lake not to run for office in 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n Jeff DeWit\u00a0<\/a><\/span>said that the audio was \u201cselectively edited.\u201d He explained, however, that he chose to resign because he was threatened by members of Lake\u2019s team that more tapes would be released if he did not step down. Lake\u2019s campaign has denied the allegation.<\/strong><\/p>\n Lake\u00a0publicly demanded<\/a>\u00a0DeWit resign over the audio Tuesday, calling him \u201ccorrupt\u201d and \u201ccompromised.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n The audio recording was first reported by The Daily Mail.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThere are very powerful people who want to keep you out,\u201d DeWit reportedly told the Senate hopeful in the recording, saying only that these figures were from the \u201ceast.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n I do not doubt that the tape is real and unedited. I also suspect that any well-informed American can make an educated guess as to who the person who put Mr. DeWitt up to this. Unfortunately this is where we are. The deep state uni-party in Washington is trying to protect their turf. President Trump is a threat, but a Congress that supports him would make him an even bigger threat to the status quo. Many Americans believe that the status quo needs to be gone.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Recently a news story broke about Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake being asked to step down from politics for two years.
