The Daily Mail is reporting on a story where Arizona Republican Chairman Jeff DeWit is caught on tape offering a bribe to Kari Lake on behalf of “people back east.” {Direct Rumble Link}
The voices “back east” surrounding republican Senate races are not exactly a surprise. Yeah, it’s obviously Mitch McConnell and the multinational corporate benefactors from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce who fund the UniParty construct. Apparently, the conversation was Jeff DeWit, 51, chair of the Arizona Republican Party, asking Kari Lake, a close ally of Donald Trump, to name her price to stay out of politics for two years.
LISTEN:
(Via Daily Mail) – […] ‘So the ask I got today from back east was: “Is there any companies out there or something that could just put her on the payroll to keep her out?’
Lake reacts with indignation.
‘This is about defeating Trump and I think that’s a bad, bad thing for our country,’ she said.
Later, DeWit, who was chief operating officer on the Trump’s 2020 campaign frames it differently.
‘Just say, is there a number at which….’ he begins.
Lake cut in: ‘I can be bought? That’s what it’s about.’
‘You can take a pause for a couple of years. You can go right back to what you’re doing.’
Lake repeatedly rebuffs him and says she wouldn’t do it for a billion dollars.
‘This is not about money, it’s about our country,’ she says. (MORE)
Quit pretending this is a surprise….
This is just Mitch McConnell crap.
Most casual political observers have absolutely no idea how McConnell works. However, for over a decade CTH has been trying –mostly failing– to awaken the base of common sense voters. In 2010, 2011 and 2012 the #1 priority for McConnell was to destroy the threat represented by the Tea Party. In 2022 we were seeing an exact replay of the same McConnell intents and purposes, only this time the target was President Trump’s MAGA movement.
It is a motive and agenda all wrapped up in the senate power structure. McConnell does not fear being in the minority; the color of the flag atop the spire of the UniParty senate does not matter to those underneath it. McConnell maneuvers with just as much power in the minority as he does in the majority; factually, he makes more money selling his DeceptiCon caucus votes to Chuck Schumer (on behalf of Wall Street) than he does in the majority where he is forced to purchase them. The entire thing is a rigged-game.
To remind ourselves how Minority and Majority Senator McConnell took down the threat of the Tea Party revisit these old articles: CNN Part I and CNN Part II both showcase how McConnell works. Then do some research on how McConnell worked with Haley Barbour in Mississippi [SEE HERE].
For those who follow the deep weeds of politics, McConnnell’s schemes are brutally transparent.
Good for Kari Lake to stand firm and tell them to get stuffed.
Well, no one was imprisoned (or better, executed) for stealing the 2020 election, so they will definitely try again. No amount of talking or “sternly worded statements” will stop the rampant corruption and tyranny in this country. Yet so many just don’t want to admit where we are on the road map to oblivion, and what it will actually take to repel the traitors. Because we refused to acknowledge reality for so long, we have now bypassed all of the relatively easy off-ramps, leaving us only with the final option that our nation’s founders reminded us would be necessary from time to time if we were to preserve our freedom and our republic. Those with their heads planted firmly in the sand fantasize that we’ve “evolved” beyond the need for that, but universal principles, such as the need to kinetically excise the tyrants in our midst once in a while, never change.
May the standoff between Texas and the feds over the federal government’s despotic refusal to protect this nation become the spark for a long overdue confrontation between the remaining truly American states and the globalist/Marxist enemy in Washington. The way that Texas immediately ignored the Supreme Court’s absurd decision, something that until now only leftists did, speaks volumes about how serious the situation has become. It was a clear signal that the Supreme Court, as for most of the federal government, has lost its legitimacy, leaving the states, which are the true sovereign entities under our system, to take the reigns of power back from the feds and do what is necessary to protect their citizens. How “kinetic” things get from here is entirely up to the reactions of the Feds, but under no circumstance should Texas budge one inch.
The federal government only exerts the authority that the states voluntarily delegate to it, beyond the very narrow set of responsibilities assigned to it by the Constitution. It is time for the states to take back their authority and teach the Feds who the real boss is. And if the Feds have to get a severe “spanking” in the process to learn their lesson, all the better.
Allow me to give a very brief synopsis of Dewit:
Country Club/RINO/Establishment/Chamber of Commerce/UNIPARTY/POS....in other words - a person who associates with other like minded folks to undermine anything and everything, as long as they can get rich off of whatever their scheme is. They do not care about any of the people they say they would like to represent. People like him and his ilk, do far more damage to this country than the Democrats, AOC, Tlaib, Omar or any of the rest could dream of doing.
Exactly why I believe DeSantis jumped into the 2024 race. Kari Lake's spectre changed the calculus of him waiting till 2028.
true: so many great candidates destroyed by the gope wing of the uniparty. they have a lot of plays in their corrupt book. this is the one to see who will play ball for the ‘carrot.’ if they don’t fall for a carrot, well, then there’s the various ‘sticks.’
“People back east” = “Rich men north of Richmond”
Who are the big people back east and why is he ‘in’ with them?
“In 2014, he sought the office of Treasurer for the state of Arizona”
Reminds me of Judas, who carried the disciples’ money bag. A betrayal from inside.
Mtch is garbage, always has been.
Bkmk
“...very powerful people...”
I do NOT consider Cocaine Mitch so powerful. He can barely give a speech to reporters. He is on his last days and will certainly not seek reelection.
In 12 months, the retribution train goes full steam ahead. Pain and punishment is coming for these “very powerful” people. /spit
Excellent, noiseman. Excellent commentary.
Shocking - and from John McKook’s home state. Who could have guessed.
“We’re being played again”
Yep TRUST NO ONE.
Look at me, I was bribed and I didn’t take it.
Trump 2024!
BUMP
DeWit is probably hiding right now. Dont piss off the people back east.

they say “after what came out last week”...
WHAT came out last week??
Dan Bolles didn’t think it was funny, either.
Dan = Don...oops!
“ If she recorded it without his knowledge? Then what?”
Arizona is a one party consent state, so she can record any conversation she takes part in with no consent required of anyone else.
