Trump, Done with Democracy, Calls on Kari Lake to Be 'Installed' as Arizona's Governor

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-calls-for-kari-lake-to-be-installed-governor-of-arizona-1234637436/

DONALD TRUMP ON Monday declared the Arizona midterm election “yet another criminal voting operation” and demanded that defeated gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake be “installed Governor of Arizona.”

Much of Lake’s Trump-backed campaign was centered around bolstering unfounded claims of electoral fraud in the 2020 election, and the former TV anchor has lived up to her commitment to only accept election results if she won.

Lake, who lost her bid for governor to Democrat Katie Hobbs, has refused to acknowledge the election results, instead filing a lawsuit requesting public records from Maricopa County that would detail which voters experienced issues casting their ballots, and information regarding errors in ballot counting.

“We know we won this election,” Lake said in a weekend interview with far-right streaming service Real America’s Voice. “We are going to do everything in our power to make sure that every single Arizonans vote that was disenfranchised is counted.”

Founder of group that fought drag shows resigned as a teacher after allegations of inappropriate and overly familiar relationships with students

https://www.sltrib.com/news/politics/2022/11/20/founder-group-that-fought-drag/

Patricia Kent resigned from her teaching job in 1996 after her “relationship with her young female students became a matter of public knowledge in the school community.”

Patricia Kent, a write-in candidate who lost her bid for the Washington County clerk/auditor’s position last week, ignited a firestorm of criticism for her comments about how drag shows were grooming children for immoral purposes.

Kent is the founder of the Liberty Action Coalition, which the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights recently listed as a far-right extremist organization. During her remarks at a Liberty Action Coalition meeting last month, Kent displayed pictures of youth at a pride event in St. George.
