➡ The World Economic Forum anticipates a major cyber catastrophe in 2023, likely targeting the US power grid. To prepare for potential long-term power outages, many are purchasing the Light Bug, a portable, solar-powered floodlight that also functions as a power bank.
➡ The Arizona Legislature committee, led by the speaker, conducted hearings that exposed significant issues with the election process, notably about the verification of signatures and discrepancies with ballots. Each strand of potential fraud is continuously pulled by the team to expose the truth. Despite the delay in the court proceedings involving a relevant lawsuit, they persistently seek justice. The value of truth and continuous effort is underscored, particularly in relation to a potential catastrophe predicted by the World Economic Forum involving a major cyber event that could leave the U.S. in a long-term blackout.
➡ Lightbug, a blackout device that uses solar power and includes life-saving features such as a built-in power bank for charging, is now 66% off with added benefits like express shipping and guaranteed replacements. Arizona is facing challenges with its election certification timeline and loopholes that potentially allow fraudulent activities. However, measures are being taken to solve these issues, such as a resolution to revert to paper ballots and increased vigilance to clean up voter rolls.
➡ Adrian Fontez, a reputed gangster and former lawyer for Mexican drug cartels, is now the Secretary of State, and Chris Mays, a relatively inexperienced lawyer, narrowly won the attorney general’s seat. Allegations of vote manipulation have surfaced with 9000 provisional ballots still uncounted, stemming from Abe Hamaday’s lawsuit for the recount of these ballots. Various administrative failures and delays have created significant roadblocks in the recounting process, leading to disillusionment among the electorate amidst concerns of significant manipulation in the electoral system.
➡ A woman in politics shares her experiences, highlighting an incident in which her life was threatened by a middle school music teacher, a proceeding that resulted in the perpetrator receiving a prison sentence. She also recounts instances of harassment from reporters at her home, pushing her to obtain a restraining order and publicizing her stand on social media to fight back.
➡ Senator Rogers, facing backlash from Gannett News and getting a judge’s ruling that she needed a “no trespassing” sign to keep reporters from her home, took matters into her own hands and, aided by her sharp lawyer, issued a direct order barring reporters from visiting her residences. The story highlights the importance of pushback in scenarios of perceived overreaching, with Rogers later thanking those who supported her through this experience.

Let’s talk about being prepared. Leaders of the World Economic Forum anticipate a cyber catastrophe for 2023. Between Emboldening Cybercriminals and Ransomware as a service thriving, the threat of cyberattack on U. S. Soil is getting worse. In fact, 86% of business leaders and 93% of cyber leaders believe we’re headed to a catastrophic cyber event soon, most likely one that attacks and shuts down the power grid, potentially leaving the US.

In a modern day Dark age for months. This is why tens of thousands of people are preparing for the worst with the Light Bug. The Light Bug is an ultra bright mini portable floodlight built for life threatening power outages that you can take with you anywhere. This savy solution to blackouts is so effective because it uses solar power instead of traditional energy, making it excellent in low or no light situations, including emergencies, cart repairs, fishing, camping, night markets, and many others.

It also includes life saving features like a built in power bank for charging, an adjustable bracket battery indicator, and more. The best part is that Light Bug is 66% off for the rest of this month, or until they sell out, whichever comes first. Plus, you’ll also receive several additional gifts, free with every order for a limited time, including express shipping, 100% lifetime guaranteed replacement. Get yours now by going to lightbug.

com that’s lightbug. com. You it. Hi, and welcome to the X 22 Report Spotlight. Today we have a returning guest, senator Wendy Rogers of Arizona. You can find her work on Wendyrogers. org, and I am very happy and honored to have Wendy on the X 22 Report Spotlight. Senator Rogers. Welcome to the spotlight. Great to be with you. Thanks so much. Greetings from finally cooling down Arizona. Yeah, it gets hot out there.

I remember when I was out there, it gets very, very warm. And actually, I think it was out there when there was, like, a monsoon or something going on that was crazy. But let me just start off I just wanted to get your take on what’s happening in the House right now with the speaker. Right now. They ousted McCarthy, and now they’re trying to find another speaker, and I think Scalise doesn’t have the votes.

I mean, what’s your take on this? What do you think is happening out there? Well, what I’m really glad to see now is that the vote by the US. Representatives has to be public. My own congressman is the stalwart, wonderful Navy Seal Eli Crane, and I have been a longtime supporter of his and encouraged President Trump to support him when he was running. And he was, of course, a holdout on not voting for McCarthy originally, and, of course, he was part of the hard eight, as Steve Bannon calls them, to get McCarthy out.

So I’m very interested in what happens. I come from a state that everyone you know, it’s turning purple. I don’t believe it is. I think our election was stolen and we’ll talk about that. But to your point, the US House is of keen interest to me, to my district, Eli Crane’s district, which of course is bigger than my state district, all of which is in Eli’s area. And we’re keenly watching this and there are so many things at play here, but right now the US House is our only real hope to hold the line.

So you mentioned election rigging in Arizona, and I know that Carrie, she’s been fighting this. Abe Hamade, he’s been fighting this. And it seems like they’re always hitting roadblocks every step of the way. I mean, I think the people, they see the fraud, they see the lies when she has the court, when there’s the trial and people see these people sitting up in court and people are putting two and two together and they’re starting to see, yeah, these people are lying.

How is this affecting Arizona and what are you doing to combat the election fraud that’s been going on there? Great question. It’s really a far ranging, broad question. I’ll try to sort of break it down. We have the Arizona legislature, which of course is one of three branches of government. We only lead by one vote in the Arizona Senate, 16 Republican, 14 Democrat. Similarly, in the Arizona House, 31 29.

We’re a part time legislature, so we typically adjourn around May or June. But this year we went until the 31 July in large part to sort of put the brakes on. He illegitimately installed so called Governor Hobbes. And so we adjourned very late, even though we had our budget done early, which is usually the reason we keep going into the summer. But we did that in May and she actually worked with us and the legislature.

And of course it’s the legislature’s job to put forward the budget. So we actually got a really conservative budget wrangled and put out in May, but we went until the 31 July in large part because our role as the Senate in particular is of advice and consent on nominations. And she has been making these just whackadoodle nominations for a lot of the positions. And so we have had to put the brakes on some of those.

We’ve approved some yesterday. We put out on social media, for example, a nomination that we had quelled of an out and out racist who had been a state senator. I actually served on committees with him and he would make the most outrageous statements of why he wouldn’t approve a nominee on a lesser position because the person wouldn’t be a person of color and that was the sole criterion.

But anyway, we quelled him when we talked about that yesterday as our role of the Arizona Senate advice and consent role. And he had been competing to be the registrar of contractors and of course, building and real estate is very big here. So to back up, to kind of ask you a question. The legislature here in Arizona has been performing a key role, especially now, to sort of put the brakes on and guardrails as much as possible on Hobbes.

And I’ll get to some court cases. Well, I’ll just say the Arizona Senate in particular has kind of acted like a state attorney general in this role, which is kind of OD, but required because she’s so crazy. And we have been a party now to numerous lawsuits to put the brakes on her and this overreach that she’s been exhibiting, as well as biden with the Grand Canyon, for example.

So to your question on election issues, I’m the chairman of the Senate Elections Committee, which has been a very much of a job in the spotlight. My hearing room is always full. I have to sort of rule with an iron hand in terms of keeping decorum and order in the room. People don’t really mess with me too much anymore. I told them that first day in January when I opened the committee.

I said I was the mother who took her two children to the store. And if they misbehaved, I don’t count to three. If I have to count to one, you’re out of this room and the whole audience in the room. I had the largest hearing room I had my committee moved to the largest hearing room at the Arizona Senate of about 250 people in the audience. And you could have heard a pin drop because they knew I meant business.

And I had to scold one of the Democrats on my committee twice, two different hearing dates because he kept interrupting and trying to run a roughshot over my committee. I don’t stand for that. And he is now going to be off that committee because this is a situation now where elections are so important. And as Carrie says, and as really all the folks who are watching it say, stolen elections have consequences, very dire consequences, now that we’re seeing.

So what we did was we put a lot of bills forward to correct and stop gap, a lot of where the fraud had been, and they were vetoed. And so you say to me, Well, Wendy, what use is it to put legislation forward only to have it vetoed? I’ll tell you what the efficacy of that is. Number one, it’s our obligation. I represent a district that actually doesn’t even include Maricopa County.

I represent four rural counties out of only 15 counties we have in Arizona. They’re big, huge, sprawling counties. And so my people tell me, you get down there to the Capitol, Rogers, and you need to represent us. You need to put forward legislation irrespective of what might happen at the end of the trail of legislative journey if the governor vetoes it or not. You need to do what we elected you to do.

And I was elected by 27 points in the general, and I won my primary against another sitting state senator by 20 points. So I feel that I have a mandate from my rural Arizonans to do the right thing. So people need to understand that, number one, a legislator has to do what’s right, irrespective of whether or not you think the governor is going to veto one’s legislation. And number two, by putting it out there in the public square, you are highlighting what the problem is and what needs to be done.

So one should never shy away from exposure. Now, number two, I conducted these hearings, as I’m talking about now, when I conducted those, a lot of truths came out. We the People Arizona Alliance, shelby Bush and her team of computer experts who’ve been working at this for, I think, six years, who have been fundamentally a foundation to the Kerry Lake lawsuit. They, shelby testified in my committee and showed the receipt, showed how these signatures were verified in milliseconds and how they were preposterously verified.

And so all of that went into the public record and then as such could be used in court. So the legislature doesn’t conduct criminal investigations, as I’ve been scolded by many to do. That’s not the role of the legislature, but the legislature can have hearings where evidence is shown for public discourse and to be able to craft legislation with. And so that’s what my committee did to great effect.

We showed that the signatures were preposterously and quickly verified. We showed that hundreds of thousands of ballots had no chain of custody on the final day of the election and that Runbeck the third party holding house, if you will, of ballots should not be where we trust our ballots to go. We also showed in hearings that this box three that it went into, had no tracking. So there were several facets of the fraud that we were able to highlight and put into the so called congressional record, I guess you could say, for the Arizona legislature, which then could be used in the Kerry Lake lawsuit.

Now you’re going to ask me, well, where are they now? Right? Her main lawsuit is in the Court of Appeals in the Tucson Division Two area, which is notoriously liberal. And you’re going to say, well, how long is that going to be strung out? We don’t know. I mean, there are probably dates. I’m just not familiar with the exact number of days, but it is being dragged out.

And yes, we have a real problem with the court, but we have to keep trying. And every day Carrie and I talk about this, every day we don’t try, we lose. You don’t know. And I listen to X 22 and I know, I think you’ll agree with this, Dave, and all of your listeners will, and a shout out to the Casperix down in Oracle who just texted me and said, we listen every this.

And Mark Matthews, my dear friend in Flagstaff, who listens to you very faithfully. So I go from Flagstaff to nearly Tucson in my coverage of Arizona, but we pull on every strand of the skiing of Wool. We pull on every strand. We don’t know what strand will unravel the skiing, but it’s our job to continue to pull. We don’t know if the Kerry Lake lawsuit that is now in the liberal appeals court area of Arizona, we don’t know if that will work out or not.

We don’t know yet if she launches a federal lawsuit, if that will end up hopefully at the US. Supreme Court, and then that will resolve this. We don’t know. Now, a year ago, we had done things where we had thought, yes, this will yield the desired result. Well, I’m at the point now where I’m a little more mature, I guess you could say a little more seasoned and realistic as a legislator to know that you just have to try everything.

And as we used to say in business, after I got out of the military, my husband and I owned a business for 23 years, and we had to market our business. We used to say, we will just throw a lot of spaghetti against the wall to see what sticks. Right. And so that’s kind of where we are. Yeah. I think people are starting to see the lies, the fraud, and what you’re doing.

I agree with you. If you don’t continually push them on all of this, they win. And it’s very easy for them to say, okay, there’s no fraud. But if you push them and you keep bringing out the evidence and this is documented evidence, this is not hearsay he said, she said. This is actually documented evidence that’s continually being presented to the courts. And what I notice throughout all of this is that the people that rigged the election, stephen Richer and all the others, it seems like they’re being backed into a corner because they have to keep covering up what they did.

And as you do this, the truth starts to slowly come out. Exactly. Yeah. And the COVID up is always worse than the lie. Yes. Stephen Richard is notorious for lying, and so is Bill Gates. And one of them, I guess Bill Gates, not the Arizona Bill Gates says, oh, I have I get just as a little sidebar here that really annoys me when a non military veteran throws around that term.

And I’m not going to say that military veterans have a corner on the market for PTSD, because I know first responders legitimately have it, and victims of violence have it. I get that. And I’m a psychiatric social worker by training and initial profession. Before I went to pilot training in the Air Force, I was a clinical social worker for three years. I have a master’s degree in It, and I treated individuals, families, couples, groups in the mental health system in the Air Force for three years before I went to pilot training.

So I understand what that term is, and I know it has broad applicability, but I really take umbrage, as some puny minded political operative using that, you know, I have PTSD, bill Gates says, and I just can’t handle it. You know, you created this for yourself. You promulgated the lie. You brought this on yourself. And I think these people who have been lying and cheating and trying to pull one over on us, the people these problems, visit themselves on these people, and they bring it upon themselves.

And you’re right. We have to keep pressing with the truth, because the truth shall set us free. And the truth is a harsh light, so that all the cockroaches run for the cracks. And so that’s why you have someone like Carrie Lake, who is absolutely unflappable, undeterred, undaunted. And she will press, press. And, oh, by the way, when we were all together two nights ago for her rollout of her U.

S. Senate bid, that in no way takes away from the fact that she is still pursuing this legal challenge to her denial of the win of the governorship. I myself think from everything I’ve seen, that she actually won that race by about eight to ten points. And it’s interesting, because, as you said, the people know my husband and I were in Phoenix shopping at an industrial flooring place to have epoxy applied to a couple surfaces in this house we have.

And we were at the counter checking out, and the guy who was helping my husband and me looked at my husband and said, oh, I see your wife is sort of making these decisions. Ha ha. And I looked at him and I said, give me a little bit of a break here. I’m on the road a lot, and I’m here for a week. I’m in the legislature. And so I have to be very assertive in making decisions here while I’m here.

I’m a senator in the legislature. And he stopped, and he said, oh, you’re a senator in the legislature? I don’t believe I’ve ever met anyone. I said, well, I don’t represent here. I’m out of flagstaff, but I’m on the road a lot. And everybody in the store got quiet, and he said, who are said, I’m Wendy Rogers. Well, the Phoenix press down here just excoriates me all the time.

And so two people from behind another counter in the store who worked there said, Wendy Rogers. Oh. And they looked up at their TV in the corner, and they said, we see you on TV. I turned around and I looked at them, and I go, carrie Lake won. And the whole place just erupted. Yeah, there’s no way that gal in the basement won. She’s illegitimate. It was just something people know it all you have to say is, Carrie Lake one in Arizona.

And then just it’s like this lightning rot that goes off. Everybody knows it. Since you’re on the chair of Elections. You’re on a lot of other committees. You’re the vice chair, government, military affairs. Let’s talk about being prepared. Leaders of the World Economic Forum anticipate a cyber catastrophe for 2023. Between emboldening cybercriminals and ransomware as a service thriving, the threat of cyberattack on US. Soil is getting worse.

In fact, 86% of business leaders and 93% of cyber leaders believe we’re headed to a catastrophic cyber event soon, most likely one that attacks and shuts down the power grid, potentially leaving the US. In a modern day Dark Age for months. This is why tens of thousands of people are preparing for the worst with the Light Bug. The Light Bug is an ultra bright, mini portable floodlight built for life threatening power outages that you can take with you anywhere.

This savy solution to blackouts is so effective because it uses solar power instead of traditional energy, making it excellent in low or no light situations, including emergencies, cart repairs, fishing, camping, night markets, and many others. It also includes life saving features like a built in power bank for charging, an adjustable bracket battery indicator, and more. The best part is that Lightbug is 66% off for the rest of this month, or until they sell out, whichever comes first.

Plus, you’ll also receive several additional gifts, free with every order for a limited time, including express shipping, 100% lifetime guaranteed replacement. Get yours now by going to Lightbug. com. That’s Lightbug. com, public safety and border security, judiciary. So you run a lot of committees with the election. Since you’re the chair of the elections, have you gotten any bills through with Katie Hobbs? Maybe like mail in ballots, dropboxes or anything that could stop their cheating? Did anything get through? Not to speak of, but we are working on something that just came to the forefront this past week, and I can’t really speak to details yet, but the problem of it is the timeline right now.

And this was on public television yesterday, so I can say this. The timelines in Arizona are problematic. And just in a nutshell, what that means is the time to certify the vote, as it were, and certify the canvas, as they call it, and so forth, are sort of squinched in and not able to handle a recount because the recount threshold rose from 0. 2 to zero, 5. 2 to zero five.

And so now, ostensibly, there will be more challenges. There were more challenges before, but the way the calendar is now, in 2024, there’s a constraint. And so the counties realize this, the counties execute the elections. And so the counties came to us, the legislature, and said, we’re boxed in here. We didn’t really foresee this. Would you help us? And I’m working now with the counties in this off season, and we’re hopefully going to get how do I say this? Weigh in heavily to get a solution that will actually, I think, shore up a lot of some of these gaps where they can fraudulently execute the election.

The real problem, first of all, is the voter rolls. Secondly, and you got a lot of groups now, grassroots groups, getting involved, trying to clean up the voter rolls. The fact that we know it was stolen and the fact that there are eyes on the problem is huge. Those facts are huge. We didn’t have that. We got taken by surprise in 2020 and to a large extent and to 100% really in 2022.

So they know that we know how they cheated printing the 19 inch image on the 20 inch ballot paper in Maricopa County, which broke the whole process down on election Day for Kerry in precincts that Carrie would be leading in Republican precinct. So we know. And that’s the thing when the enemy knows that, you know, they have to be much more clever and secretive. And so there are a lot more eyes on.

And that’s in and of itself very helpful. And I’ll talk to Abe Hamaday’s case on that in a minute, too. But back to your question. No, we haven’t gotten anything through, but there’s been so much more exposure. And also this timeline issue with the counties is going to be a way that we’re going to hopefully make some progress on shoring up some gaps. One other thing that we did, by the way, was the Arizona Senate and the Arizona House passed a so called Senate concurrent Resolution, 100:37 SDR.

And you say, well, what is that? That didn’t actually require the governor’s signature. It was a concurrent resolution between the Senate and the House. And it’s stipulated in five very precisely written pages that back in 2017, the federal government, the Department of Homeland Security in particular, deemed elections and election machinery as critical infrastructure and as such had to ascribe to DoD standards whereby foreign nations couldn’t hack in and manipulate and so forth.

And so it says at the end of the resolution, you shall go back essentially to paper. If you can’t corroborate the fact that all these criteria are met in your machines, they can’t have foreign parts and so forth. Well, they can’t corroborate that. They can’t say our machines are hack proof and not able to be manipulated. They can’t. So really, the concurrent resolution says you need to go back to paper.

In essence. Well, let me just talk to that for a minute. So Senator Sonny Borelli, who’s the only other retired military, 20 years plus retired military senator like me, there are two of us marine, Air Force, he and ISOR went on this circuit writing tour earlier this summer. We went to four counties out of the 15, three of which are mine, one of which is his, and presented to the Board of Supervisors.

In some states you call it commissioners. In our state, they’re called supervisors. And either there are five or three, depending on the size of the county, and they meet once a month so he and I went to these four different boards of supervisors and we sort of tried to sell the idea of this concurrent resolution. And all we asked was for them to consider going to paper in April for the presidential preference primary.

That’s not our regular primary, which is very late, is in August in Arizona, but in April for the presidential. So it’s just one race. So we’re working with one county, I think, where they may go ahead and do this and why ask for that? Because we want to prove that going back to paper day of tallying it in the precinct, not commingling everything and sending it to the vote centers where all the mischief occurs, but doing it at the precinct on paper, that’s actually cheaper than machines.

And it’s obviously, to me anyway, to you, to the audience, much more trustworthy and accurate. So we’re saying, hey, county boards of supervisors, just humor us, okay? Just do it in April for the one race on the ballot to show that it can be done. I think they’re so afraid of rocking the boat. And they also, by the way, everybody, I know you’re going to say, well, obviously, but didn’t occur to Borrelli and me until we actually saw it.

But you know, who runs these counties, really, in large part are these unelected bureaucrats. And I know you’re all going to say, well, of course, but you have to go in the room and see the body language. So you’ll see either the three or the five supervisors up on the dyess. And usually Borelli and I are up on the dyess, but here we are in the audience looking up at these supervisors.

And then on the outrigger seats of the dyess are the staffers, the county attorney, the manager, the county manager, and all these people. And you look at how they have eye contact back and forth between the elected officials, the supervisors, and you can see who really wears the pants in the family. You can see who is listened to. It’s these corporatists bureaucrats who are there forever and who have knowledge since Christ was a corporal.

And then you have these elected officials deferring to them and being sort of unwilling to rock the boat and do what we, the people, elected them to do. Because it’s the counties who execute the elections. So, long story longer, sorry, but this is what we’ve been trying to do for Ellie and I on the county level. And then, of course, we have Carrie running point in the judicial branch with her lawsuits and then at the pure state legislative level, we’ve been trying to expose all of this in the public venue.

In my committee, you said something very interesting, that for the primary, you want to go back to paper to show that it works. But if we go back in time, we used to use paper ballots. I know we used to use paper ballots. And I remember when I was younger, we went to I think the school was closed. We went to the gym, we did paper ballots. I remember going with my parents, and they counted everything right there.

So we used to do it that way. And actually, if you do it on one day, they don’t have the two, three, four days to see how many ballots they need, and they can’t cheat. I don’t know. Maybe, you know, because you go around speaking to everyone. What’s the consensus of the people in Arizona with the 2020 election now the 2022 election? Now we’re heading to 2024. Are the people saying, enough with these dominion machines or whatever machines you’re using where you feed in the Balts? Are they saying, enough with this already? Oh, of course, but we can’t legislate our way out of it with the illegitimately installed governor and the illegitimately installed secretary of state.

Bear in mind, we don’t have a lieutenant governor position. I think we’re one of six states that don’t we actually did vote to do this, but it doesn’t go into effect until, I think, 2026. So right now, the top three positions, as it were, consist of the governor, the Secretary of State, who is Adrian Fontez, who’s a reputed gangster sort of guy, cartel lawyer. He was a lawyer for the Mexican drug cartels.

And then we have this woman, Chris Mays, who’s in the attorney general’s slot, who’s never really, as I understand it, practiced as a lawyer, and she supposedly won by 200 votes. Oh my gosh. 200 votes out of millions of votes. And so let me sort of digress to that for a minute. Abe Hamaday, of course, is the great candidate who we think won and sued to have 9000 provisional ballots counted.

What? Wait a minute. Everybody says, hold the phone. You mean some ballots still have not been counted? You would be correct. 9000 provisional ballots. And you say, how does that happen? I’ll tell you how it happened. It happened to a family member of mine. What happened was he said, I don’t want to be on the mail in ballot list anymore. I want to go in and vote. So I’m going to write in and say, I don’t want to be on the mail in ballot list anymore.

He did, and they changed a two homeowner, a member of the family, they changed his voter registration without his permission to the other home and told him, this is like six weeks before the election. And he said, I don’t vote at that other home. That’s not what I asked for. I asked to be taken off the list of my home for mail in ballot so that I will go in to vote.

And Stephen Richard himself wrote back a nasty when this family member inquired about this, stephen Richard wrote back a nasty email saying, if you think wrongdoing occurred, contact law enforcement. Goodbye. So this was a. Very annoying response to get from an elected official. So the family member sort of cast it aside, waited so many weeks, went in on election day to vote. Well, when he went in to vote at his real home, the elections officials said, you’re not in the computer anymore.

And he told me, this family member told me, oh, my gosh, I wasn’t sure what to do. So I stood there kind of speechless. And then the elections people said, would you like to vote with a provisional ballot? And of course he said yes. So we went and voted with a provisional ballot, which is sort of this generic vanilla ballot that they give you. And then you vote and turn it in, and you’re done.

Well, then he told me that he kept checking, gee, did my ballot get tallied? Because each county has a site you can go to to see if your ballot got tallied. Kept not being tallied. Kept not being tallied has never to this day, been tallied. So he’s very frustrated. He was very steamed. He told me about it weeks later, months later. And I said, Gosh, I don’t know what to say.

So I sort of filed that in the back of my mind. Well, Abe Hamaday is an old friend. I’ve known him since he was a college student. For those of you in the audience. He is an army officer. He is of Middle Eastern descent, of course, A-U-S. Citizen lawyer, a great conservative. President Trump endorsed him, and he’s a very close friend of Carrie’s. He did the warm up the other night at Launch Know.

We’re part of this super intense group here in Arizona. And anyway, so he and I were talking months ago. I was in the legislative session, and I happened to mention this. He said what? I said, yeah, this is what happened. Then I explained what happened. He said, Wendy, that family member of yours is one of the 9000 provisional ballot casters who never had their ballots counted, their votes counted.

He said, that’s the quintessential linchpin of my lawsuit that we need to count the 9000 provisional ballot voters because they were never counted. I said, Well, I have a person like that. And he said, okay, good. We will utilize that example. But that’s what’s happened. And you say to me, well, of the 9000 provisional ballots that Abe Hamaday wants counted, and that’s all he wants. It’s a horse of a different color kind of lawsuit from Carrie’s, which is equally impactful, but much more multifaceted.

Abes is one single facet which is, please, judicial system insist that the 9000 provisional ballots be counted. And so what happened on that little journey was that Abe went to court. He went to another county, Mojave County, which is where Borrelli’s from way out on the border of California, the reddest county in Arizona, maybe in the country. I mean, it’s very Republican, but irrespective of that he went to a Superior Court at the State Court, the first big level of court in Mojave County.

And I was there this was in May, I think, and Borrelli and I were there, and a bunch of supporters, and the judge said, okay, I’ll rule on this. Well, he didn’t rule, and he didn’t rule, and he didn’t rule. And finally he signed out the paperwork, but it wasn’t complete, so he administratively kind of flubbed up. So that delayed are you seeing a pattern here? Yeah, that delayed things.

And then Abe appealed. Well, it was premature because the man hadn’t done his administrative obligatory paperwork properly. And then Abe went to the Supreme Court, I think I had this right, and said, will you please scold the Superior Court into doing its job? And the Supreme Court said no. That’s the appeals court job to scold the Superior Court. Oh, my gosh, it’s just like kindergarten, right? It really is.

And so finally, the Superior Court of Mojave County signed his paperwork, the judge properly and so forth, and said no retrial. So he wasted about, I don’t know, four or five months to say no. Now, Abe is appealing that final decision at that level to the Appeals Court. So they’re dragging this out, dragging this out. Dragging this out, because they think and you know how it is. Possession is nine tenths of a law.

They think probably that the longer this illegitimately installed attorney General, Chris Mays Gal is in the job, the harder it is going to be to pry her loose. We can’t let that stop us. I talked to Abe at Carrie’s event privately, as I said, two nights ago, and I was awestruck by how kind of infused with the spirit of the Lord that he was endowed with. I’ve known Abe, as I said, for years and years, but he is so strong and so convicted and of the mindset, he says, Wendy, this is a privilege to be where I am right.

Know the verse from Esther, but for such a time as this, he said that to and I have to tell you, you’re the first audience I’ve said this to. I haven’t even told my husband this, but the look in his eyes was amazing. He is very inspired and very driven and full of the Holy Spirit. I have to tell you, at this juncture in his life, I was quite struck by that.

And I think that that is happening with a lot of us who are sort of in the crucible. We know that coming up here in the next twelve to 15 months, it’s going to be a very tumultuous time. We’re seeing events every day, unfold, that we never could have predicted. And I’m a grandma. We’re awaiting the birth of our 7th grandchild. And I tell our grandchildren this, I say, Grandma Wendy was a pilot in the Air Force and did all these adventuresome things in life and then had your dad and then had your aunt.

We have two adult kids, and Grandpa and I have done all these things. We’ve been married for 45 years and we’ve had this really adventuresome existence. But now I feel that the Lord has prepared me for this moment and these moments coming up and I really don’t know what will unfold. But just to have spoken to Abe last night and seen the way he comported himself and presented sort of where he was to me, the fact that he’s fighting every day, that he has a very deep seated conviction for the direction that his lawsuit is going and that we are doing the right thing and we are in this special place on purpose, for the purpose.

It’s very palpable. I think that people need to see all of this play out because, yes, people, they heard, oh, this election didn’t go well. There might be a little bit of manipulation here, but I don’t think the people of this country realized how manipulated the election system really is for a long time now, for a very long time. And I think the people now are seeing, just like you mentioned on the Deus, when you have all the unelected people looking at each other, I don’t think they realized how deep and wide this is and how many players are involved in this, in controlling the elections.

And I think this fight with you, with Abe and Kerry and President Trump, I think people are starting to realize this. And I think this is very important that they see all of this play out. Because if you don’t know, then you can’t fight it. And you have to see the crimes. You have to see what they’re doing so you can actually push back. And I see a lot of pushback now, and I see a lot of people saying enough is enough, because now I see it.

I didn’t believe it before, but now I see it. And I’m very angry with what’s going on. So I think it’s working. I do too. And a lot of it is owning firearms. These countries know australia, Israel My husband and I visited Israel extensively right when COVID was breaking out three years ago. And we went on our own. We had gone on a tour 30 years earlier when we were in the military.

We went with a military chapel group, which was a very special tour. But we went back on our own. We rented a car, we stayed at Airbnbs, we talked to the Israelis, of course, I was in politics at this point, so kind of had a different perspective and we really dove deeply. We were there for almost three weeks, driving around and know, we’re looking at all of this with very keen interest and nothing is as it seems.

And I know you know this, Dave, you speak to this on your show a lot, so that’s important background. But in the near term, front and center. It’s important to be extremely vigilant, to be armed, in my opinion, to have provisions, to have those discussions with your family. I recently, I’ll speak to this sort of quickly had my security and privacy kind of infringed in two different ways.

A year ago, July 4, eli Crane and I were up in Show Low, Arizona for the largest Independence Day, July 4 parade that we have in Arizona. And the Trump Store owners, Karen and Steve Slayton are dear friends of Eli’s and mine, and they kind of hosted an after the parade event for Eli and Wendy to meet with constituents there at the Trump Store in Sholo. And about an hour into it, I was told, get out of here quickly.

There’s an email that came in over the Trump Store website that says, from some unknown emailer who says you’re in his Target gun site. He’s got an AR 15 trained on you next door from the Sonic Burger. Get the heck out of here now. Oh, my God. So I got out and went back to Flagstaff, ultimately, and then the Department of Public Safety spent six weeks through cyber forensic analysis to determine who he was.

He was a middle school music teacher from the Tucson Unified School District, visiting his mother ten minutes away in northern Arizona, sending this email out under an alias. So he was summarily arrested in Tucson, but the county attorney down there let him go after a few days. So there was a grand jury, again at our request in the county where the crime occurred, and he then went to trial.

Well, we were in the legislative session all through this, and the Slayton, whose store I was in when it happened, so they’re sort of the victims also, they went to all the proceedings, and then finally in about June, I think, so this was almost a year later, the court let me know. They said, Senator, if you can come, this would be the court hearing to come too, because this is when he’ll be sentenced.

This is very interesting. So I drove over there, everything’s a two or three hour drive for me when I don’t fly my own airplane. So I drove over from Flagstaff to Holbrook, which is where the Petrified Forest National Park is, where the county seat is of Navajo County. And I was met in the hallway by the county attorney and the court advocate, and the Slateants were already inside, and the judge was already inside, and they said, what sentence do you think this perpetrator should receive from the judge? We want to know.

And I said, well, what’s the range of sentence? And they said, anything from probation to two and a half years in prison, the crime being threatening the life of an elected official. Right. So I went in and Mr. Slayton, Mrs. Slayton, and then I each spoke, and I knew the judge was prior military, I had asked that question, which is always sort of a bond, a transcendent bond between him and me.

And I looked at the judge, and I said, judge, you? And I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution. I said, Certainly, this threat on my life. And I looked at the guy. He’s this kind of wimpy teacher guy. First offense. I said certainly. His threat was aggravating to me, my spouse, my children, my grandchildren, and in large part to my colleagues at the Capitol, because it could have been one of them, too, right? I said, but the bottom line is, I represent a district with all of these hard, scrabble little towns.

I said, I don’t represent any major metropolitan cities. And then I listed, like, 18 names of all the little towns that I represent. And I said, they don’t have anyone to fight for them except for me, and they know that I fight for them. And so when he comes after me, he’s coming after my people, and that’s what I have to say about it. So I sat down, and then the judge began to opine, and he said, I’ve taken in all of what each attorney has told me, and I understand it’s the first offense, and I understand all this.

And then he looked at the perpetrator, and he said, but three things you need to know. Number one, you cost the state of Arizona a lot of money to figure out who you were and so forth, because this was weeks of cyber forensic research and so forth. And number two, you threatened by the use of an AR 15, which is really rich because the left hates the AR 15.

And number three, you threatened in the most heinous, graphic, despicable, life threatening way. And his threat was full of profanity and just horrible graphic language. And he said, So we’re not doing probation here. You’re going to prison for two and a half years. Wow. Do you have anything you essentially want to say to the audience or to the court before I remand you to the Department of Corrections? And he said, well, my mom and my brother couldn’t be here.

Could I phone them? And he goes, you can do that from jail. So they handcuffed him and took him was I’ve had a lot of life experiences, but I’ve never really witnessed that before, so that was interesting. Now, break, break. Different subject. I had a reporter, Capitol Times reporter Cameron Sanchez, a little newspaper that comes out of the Phoenix Capitol stalk me. This was sort of happening right after that.

Went to my new home down here by the Capitol that we moved to. Went to the old home. We were vacating, was on the door step, our little ring doorbell camera, got a snapshot of her. I was at home in Flagstaff, in the district. My husband was down here by the Capitol, and he had three ring doorbell snapshots of this pushy reporter who kept stalking me. And he said, who is this? I said, this is a reporter that won’t leave me alone.

She’s been scolded at the Senate for being pushy and asking me questions on the floor when I’ve said I don’t want to talk to her, and now she’s coming to my home. And then another Fox Ten reporter where Carrie Lake used to report did the same thing and actually drove 3 hours to Flagstaff and appeared on that doorstep too. So I won’t kid my husband anymore about having a ring doorbell camera on the doorstep.

I used to dog him about actually, it turned out well because he had the footage. So I called my colleagues at the Senate, I called the lawyers at the Senate. I said, I’m not putting up with this. I’m being stalked at my home. I’m sick of it. What should I do? And they said, well, one option is to get a restraining order. So I said, say no more.

So I go to the court in Flagstaff. I’m in Flagstaff the whole time. So I go to the court, I get a restraining order. Well, the leftist media, they’re not ready for that. And I had the three little pictures of her. One was at night, very spooky, and then I had the restraining order. So I had this tweet ready to go with four little components, three pictures of her.

And the restraining order. Well, I put that out on Twitter. It’s had over a half a million views. And this is where we fight back. This is where we expose. This is where we say, I’m not putting up with it anymore. I am going to do a restraining order on you, and I am going to expose you on my social media, which is way bigger than yours. Okay? And then we had this little joke because people were saying, oh, you’re going to be on the bad girl list for the Capitol Times.

I go the Capitol Times. I’ve got people like Cat Turd reposting my stuff so I have way more exposure. The Capitol times. Cat Turd, right? And then we went to court because, of course, her paper challenged this. Now you say, oh, well, you’re in good stead. The Capitol times is little. You have big exposure. Remember this. The Capitol Times is a subsidiary of Ganette News. So I’m now this little pokey senator in Arizona getting live streamed on TV in Phoenix against Ganette News.

So they flew in this reporter or sorry, lawyer from, you know, badgering me on the stand right and left. And the bottom line is, right at the end, the woke judge in Flagstaff said, oh, you know, I’m going to lift this restraining order because if Senator Rogers doesn’t want someone visiting her home, she should put up a no trespassing sign, or she should send a letter to someone.

If she doesn’t want that, someone visiting her at her home. At which point, my lawyer, who’s this combat veteran army officer, jag officer lawyer who’s won war crimes trials. I mean, I know how to pick them. Okay, this guy is Will Fishbach, and he’s a tiger triathlete. And so he shot up from the table, and he looks at the judge and he says, glad you mentioned that, judge.

And he looked over at the reporter. He says, she is hereby directed to never, ever go back to Senator Rogers Tombs again. And oh, all of you in the press box, none of you are allowed to ever go to Senator Rogers residences again, ever. And the judge was sort of quivering. He said, Well, I didn’t mean and then my lawyer said, no, you said that. He said It per the statute.

I want that part of the record, the court record, right now. And you could have heard a pin drop. So we may have sort of lost that battle, but we kind of won the war because the room, by the way, was so full and they were alleging, oh, you’re not from Flagstaff and all this? Oh, no, all my people were there. That room was full. They needed a spillover room for all my Flagstaff friends who were watching it on closed circuit TV.

It was epic. And then we go to dinner. The Slaytons were over from Sholo. And then Jordan Conradson, the great young reporter for the Gateway Pundit, and three of my senator colleagues came up to support me. We were up till 530 that morning doing the budget. It was in May. And they all drove up to support me on 3 hours of sleep. And so anyway, we were all talking later at dinner, on phone at dinner, and sort of going over what we learned from the hearing.

And my colleagues were saying, well, they’re going to put up no trespassing signs. And then we hung up with them. And Jordan Conradson, this great young reporter from the Gateway Pundit, looked at me and said, well, I’ve got to get going. It’s dusk, and I got to get back to Phoenix, and I got to make a stop first. And I said, oh, where are you stopping? He said, at the judge’s house.

He went to the judge’s house. He wasn’t home. But he talked to the neighbors, just like these reporters did to my neighbors, right? These people aren’t immune. You’re going to pass judgment on how I’m supposed to be able to be stalked by reporters? You’re going to see what that’s like, too, Judge? Yeah, I agree with that. Got to push back, everybody. You have to push back. We always have to push back.
