    State Republicans shun lawmakers critical of Trump and his big lie

    excerpt:

    "Moore argued that the involvement of officials in Trump’s efforts to undermine his opponents could actually undermine the state parties.

    “I would argue it actually weakens the party in the long term. It reduces the credibility of chairs, especially when they endorse crackpot candidates against serious US senators,” Moore said. “The big success of the party in the past decade is improved infrastructure, so when sitting US senators don’t play ball with the party it reduces the quality of the infrastructure – like field programs, data, etc.”

    Even more unusual, these internal Republican party conflicts have little to do with a broad swath of policy disagreements.Instead they are often about whether a candidate supported Trump’s false claims that the 2020 election was fraudulent.

    “What’s happened is historically odd,” Moore said. “We’ve seen senators over the years attacked by party chairs or the party in general, but never over one vote. It’s very strange.”"

    Barrack is a longtime friend of Trump's.

    A spokeswoman for Trump did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment on the arrest.

    Former Trump inaugural chairman Thomas Barrack arrested on federal charges in Los Angeles

    excerpt:

    "Former Trump Inaugural Chairman Thomas Barrack has been arrested on federal charges in Los Angeles.

    In a news release, the Justice Department confirmed that the longtime Trump ally was arrested in California on Tuesday morning. He has been accused of acting and conspiring to act as agents of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) between April of 2016 and April of 2018.

    Federal officials believe that Barrack and two others made efforts to advance the interest of the UAE by influencing the foreign policy positions of then-U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump's campaign during the 2016 election, and subsequently, of the incoming administration.

    Matthew Grimes, 27, of Aspen, Colorado, and UAE national Rashid Sultan Rashid Al Malik Alshahhi, 43, were also charged in the seven-count indictment.

    Only Barrack and Grimes have been arrested. Alshahhi remains at large."

    Off-duty DEA agent arrested on Capitol riot charges

    excerpt:

    "An off-duty Drug Enforcement Administration agent posed for photographs in which he flashed his DEA badge and firearm outside the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 riot, according to a court filing Tuesday following the agent’s arrest.

    A video posted on the internet also showed Mark Sami Ibrahim carrying a flag bearing the words “Liberty or Death” outside the Capitol, about 12 minutes before a mob of people pulled apart a nearby set of barricades, authorities said.

    Ibrahim, 32, of Orange County, California, was a probationary employee of the DEA and was on personal leave from the agency when he traveled to Washington on Jan. 6. Several weeks before the riot, he had given notice of his intention to resign.

    Ibrahim wasn’t working as a law-enforcement officer at the Capitol on Jan. 6, but he told investigators after the riot that he was there to help a friend who had been asked to document the event for the FBI.

    The friend denied that, however, and told investigators that Ibrahim had concocted the false story to “cover his ass,” according to a case summary signed by senior special agent with the Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General."

    Democrat unveils bill to allow only House members to be speaker after Trump said post would be ‘interesting’

    excerpt:

    "Congressman Brendan Boyle of Pennsylvania introduced the bill, which addresses what is essentially a loophole in the constitution when it comes to naming a speaker of the House. The constitution does not require the speaker to be a member of the House, meaning someone who is not a current congressional lawmaker – like Mr Trump – could be appointed to the position by Republicans, should they take back the chamber following the midterms."

    Rand Paul accused Fauci of lying before Congress on May 11, 2021.

    Paul also essentially blamed Fauci for creating the coronavirus, citing what he thinks was gain of function research partially funded by NIH that he thinks created the coronavirus.

    Paul claimed without support that all of the evidence is pointing to the Wuhan lab (Trump's explanation) as the source of the coronavirus.



    ‘If anybody is lying here, senator, it is you,’ Dr. Anthony Fauci, Sen. Rand Paul clash on virus origins, trade charges of lying

    excerpt:

    "“Senator Paul, you do not know what you’re talking about, quite frankly,” Dr. Fauci said. “And I want to say that officially. You do not know what you’re talking about.”

    He added, “If anybody is lying here, senator, it is you.”

    It was the latest in a series of clashes between Mr. Paul and Dr. Fauci about the origins of the virus that caused the global pandemic."

    Fauci is correct... Rand Paul never knows what he's talking about.

    Most Arizona Republicans say election audit will show Trump won: poll

    excerpt:

    "Sixty-two percent of Arizona Republicans said in a new OH Predictive Insights poll that Trump will receive more votes in the state after the GOP audit is completed. Another 21 percent of Republicans say Biden’s victory will stand, while another 16 percent are unsure.

    The poll underscores the extent to which Arizona Republicans have been swayed by unsubstantiated claims from Trump and his allies that alleged electoral misconduct and irregularities swung the election to Biden in key swing states like Arizona."

    Arizona election auditors say they don't have enough information to finish report

    excerpt:

    "Leaders of the GOP audit told the state Senate in a livestreamed meeting Thursday that their review is taking months longer than the 60 days initially planned because of issues including confusion about damaged ballots and a lack of access to some data.

    For instance, Doug Logan, the CEO of Cyber Ninjas, the small cybersecurity consulting firm leading the audit, said, "We have 74,243 mail-in ballots where there is no clear record of their being sent."

    "He added, "We can tie them to a specific individual that it was mailed to, so we have 74,000 where we have and came back from individuals where we don't have a clear indication that they were ever sent out to them. That could be something where documentation wasn't done right — there was a clerical issue, there's not proper things there — but I think when we've got 74,000, it merits, you know, knocking on a door and validating some of this information."

    Senate Republicans had already planned to canvass homes and ask people about their voting patterns, but in May dropped the idea under pressure from the U.S. Department of Justice, which warned the effort could violate laws against voter intimidation. Senate President Karen Fann said Thursday she would consult with lawyers before deciding whether to proceed.

    Maricopa County responded to Logan's claim on Twitter: "In Maricopa County, we allow people to vote early in two ways: 1) by mail and 2) in-person at Vote Centers. These are all considered early votes.""

    Arizona election auditors say they don't have enough information to finish report

    excerpt:

    "The county explained, "The people who vote in-person use ballots provided at a Vote Center. This is not a new practice, so it's not unusual that we would have more early votes than mail-in ballots sent." The county also said that that Logan's method of tallying the early ballots that had been sent and received was incorrect.

    The review calls for hand counting 2.1 million ballots and forensically evaluating voting machines, servers and other data. Cyber Ninjas had no prior experience in elections, and experts in election administration have warned it's not following reliable procedures.

    Before Logan was contracted by the Arizona Senate to conduct the audit, he spread conspiracy theories backing former President Trump's false claims of fraud, including one linking Dominion voting machines to the late Venezuelan dictator, Hugo Chavez.

    A hand count of a statistical sample of ballots matched the machine count, and two post-election audits found no manipulation of the machines. Mr. Trump lost Arizona by 10,457 votes. After the hearing, he issued a statement highlighting several misleading claims."

    excerpt:

    "Fann says no audit findings will be released until a full report is completed. But Logan and Cotton made several claims in their plea for more information before they can complete it. Among the records they're seeking are images of mail-in ballot envelopes, security keys for administrator-level access to voting machines, copies of internet routers, a diagram of the county's network and a copy of the county's voter-registration database."

    Logan and Cotton now want all of that plus canvassing door-to-door to try to track down what they (mistakenly) believe are 74,243 suspicious early voting ballots that weren't mailed (that in reality are due to people voting early at voting centers that provided the ballots that weren't mailed).

    The partisan GOP audit wants all types of information released to it based on misunderstandings that it has about how elections work which (in their minds) makes the election seem suspicious.

    At the same time, the AZ GOP senators have been trying to obstruct transparency of the how the audit is being conducted. A judge didn't agree with them last week.


    Arizona election auditors say they don't have enough information to finish report

    excerpt:

    "Meanwhile, a Maricopa County judge ruled Thursday that records about the audit are public documents under the state's open records law, rejecting an argument by lawyers for the Senate that records maintained by Cyber Ninjas and other private firms do not need to be publicly released."
