Election audit exposé: BoS chair Jack Sellers is linchpin

Once again, Gateway Pundit (GP) proves to be the go-to site for information on the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors which has fought tooth and nail against the election audit verifying the results of the 2020 county votes.

Now we know why. The first paragraph follows this lede:

“Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Chairman, Jack Sellers, has unique connections to China and American companies.”

“Jack Sellers is the Chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors. He has refused or delayed compliance with judge-ordered subpoenas related to the Senate’s audit. He’s supposedly a Republican…so what gives? A look into Sellers’ other roles and those organizations may shed some light. We know he participated in trade missions to China. Trump was tough on China and curbed much of the illegal immigration. Is it possible Jack Seller’s loyalties lie elsewhere?”

Read the entire, enlightening GP report by Joe Hoft, complete with a photo of Chairman Sellers being cordially greeted by the Vice Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party in China. It’s news you won’t find in the audit disdaining, increasingly radical local newspaper, which has been losing subscribers at an unsustainable rate.

Matt Salmon still chasing AZ governor dream…when not backing China

Though his political time has come and gone, Matt Salmon hasn’t gotten the message. After losing a gubernatorial race to Obama-connected, open-border leftist Janet Napolitano in 2002 and later announcing his retirement from politics, Salmon, a former U.S. Rep. who left congress twice, is once again running for governor. In the intervening years, he’s reportedly earned $336,090 yearly as the chief lobbyist for Arizona State University, notably supporting the Confucius Institute. He was aided in his duties as a fluent Mandarin Chinese speaker. He learned the language in preparation for his 1970’s church mission in Taiwan.

The Chinese Communist Party-linked Confucius Institutes are Beijing-run programs that ostensibly teach Chinese language and culture. Initially, more than 100 institutes simultaneously emerged at universities in the United States, plus Confucius Classrooms at the K-12 level. They’re directed by the Chinese Ministry of Education, employ teachers who are trained in China and teach government-approved versions of history, culture and current events to American students — few of whom have any relevant knowledge of either communism or China, as this disturbing Campus Reform article points out. This brief, but startling video provides an insight into the ignorance flourishing on liberal college campuses:

As of July 9, 2021, there are a total of 41 Confucius Institutes in the United States, down from over 100, as schools abandoned the propaganda programs thanks to pressure from the Trump administration amid growing concerns they have become indoctrination centers. This crucial report in the Washington Examiner reveals President Donald Trump’s proposed rule, “Establishing Requirement for Student and Exchange Visitor Program Certified Schools to Disclose Agreements with Confucius Institutes and Classrooms.” But before the rule made its way to the Federal Register or went into effect, the Biden administration withdrew it on Jan. 26, less than a week after Inauguration Day.

We’re all busy, but should never be too preoccupied to lose awareness of ubiquitous indoctrination programs intended to undermine our constitutional republic and using our younger generation to carry out the scheme.

Biden’s farcical double standard on immigration

Comparing Biden to Paul Revere: Biden comes up short

The tower of Boston’s Old North Church is immortalized for being where Paul Revere’s “One if by land, two if by sea” lantern signal was sent. The phrase is related to Revere’s midnight ride of April 18, 1775, alerting the colonists, preceding the Battles of Lexington and Concord during the American Revolutionary War. When American history was still taught, we learned these facts.

Things have changed dramatically in the intervening years. Today the leftist educrat members of the teacher’s unions are committed not to our history, but rather to instilling divisiveness — dedicated as they are to indoctrinating Critical Race Theory, where one group of Americans are victims and the other are victimizers, based solely on genetic characteristics over which we have no control.

The Biden administration is energized at the prospect of separating us and laying blame.  It’s their red meat. But there is now what at first blush appears to be an impossible to understand component.

Though the dismantling of the wall on our southern border has been prioritized by the democrats who welcome all comers breaching our southern border* from Central America and Mexico, there is a decidedly different approach to Cubans living under communism 90 miles south of Florida. This past week, they have been marching for freedom from the repressive regime that turned the once popular destination country to a dictatorship run by Fidel Castro and his brother Raul for more than six decades. Communist Miguel Mario Diaz-Canel Bermudez is currently in charge.

Alejandro Mayorkas, Biden’s Secretary of Homeland Security, is another slippery Obama administration cohort now reshuffled over to Biden. He helped implement the DACA program and will be responsible for strengthening it, along with other Biden immigration programs. He also has a short memory. Mayorkas’ own family fled Cuba in 1960 after Fidel Castro’s communist takeover of the country. This was his tweet on the topic.

Mayorkas is not all that concerned about our nation’s security as he welcomes uneducated, unvaccinated and often known criminal invaders from Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador.  However, his and Biden’s message to Cubans hungering for freedom among increasing domestic turmoil along with food and medical shortages is, “Let me be clear. If you take to the sea, you will not come to the United States.”

Why the different treatment? There’s no mystery involved. Cubans are reliably Republicans. Mexicans and Central Americans most often walk lock-step with the democrats.

Between February and March 2021, after newly installed Joe Biden assumed the presidency, 1,076,242 illegals entered the United States. The numbers have not abated.

Jeff Flake: Biden picks turkey as ambassador to Turkey

Appointment is reward for Flake’s support of Biden’s presidential campaign

In what is surely one of the most appropriate appointments to come out of the Harris/Biden administration Arizonan Jeff Flake has been nominated as ambassador to Turkey. Cindy McCain, who also campaigned for the democrat ticket, was similarly rewarded with an ambassadorship.

Flake, a former congressman and single term U.S. Senator, perfected his role as show-boater extraordinaire, colluding with democrats, though elected as a Republican. He posted photos of himself writing checks to democrat candidates, and was avidly anti-Trump,* to the point that his relatives who make up a majority of the conservative LDS town of Snowflake, AZ named in part for his great-great-grandfather, refused to support his candidacy according to a report in the local newspaper. Flake, who was born and raised in Snowflake, opportunistically moved to Mesa to launch his single issue, opposition to “earmarks,” congressional campaign.

Flake’s unprecedentedly low 18 percent approval ratings in his home state, convinced him not to seek a second senate term. Not only was Flake John McCain’s protégé, he was also Barack Obama’s weekly basketball teammate and traveling buddy, accompanying Obama and the democrat black caucus on a junket to Kenya.

A man of unparalleled deception, Flake’s pre-political past, which he tried to obscure, included working as a registered foreign agent lobbying on behalf of Iranian uranium mining interests in Africa. There was no room for this disclosure or his open border positions on Flake’s resume.

* The Washington Times’ Cheryl K. Chumley exposed this 2019 anti-Constitutional secret voting scheme to remove President Trump from office, topped by a photo of the lead instigator, Jeff the Flake.

Biden’s border crisis even worse than we thought

Dems view invasion of unvaccinated and uneducated as future democrat voters

With the Biden administration’s weakness evident to those from Central America, Mexico and Special Interest Aliens who continually breach our southern border, it’s worth paying attention to the criminal aspect of who is entering.

As bizarre as it sounds, recent “guidance” from Biden’s acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement  Director Tae Johnson instructs agents not to pursue illegal aliens for arrest and deportation until they have been convicted of aggravated felonies against Americans — crimes such as rape, murder, child pornography, sexual abuse of a minor, trafficking firearms, and theft.

On its heels came this “Policy Alert” from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services carrying the subject line: “Bona Fide Determination Process for Victims of Qualifying Crimes, and Employment Authorization and Deferred Action for Certain Petitioners.”

In plain English, our government is prioritizing illegals who claim they are crime victims…rather than perpetrators.

The victims Pres. Joe Biden and his disinterested, perpetually  cackling “border czar” VP Kamala Harris should focus on are Americans.

FAIR (Federation for American Immigration Reform) has actively monitored the Biden Administration’s inaction and the criminal invaders who are being welcomed without any consideration for the well-being of Americans.

This datelined list of Examples of Serious Crimes By Illegal Aliens is well worth your time. It exposes the fallacy that these are “just good folks, trying to make a better life for themselves.”

Preston Huennekens, FAIR’s Government Relations Manager, highlights the border policy differences between the Trump and Biden border administrations, headlining his June report, “May Border Apprehensions Reach 21-Year High.”

This Center for Immigration Studies report, “MS-13 Resurgence: Immigration Enforcement Needed to Take Back Our Streets,” details horrific crimes committed at an alarming rate by violent gang members. The numbers have obviously increased since this was written in 2018.

Sanctuary cites, counties and states providing safe havens to criminal aliens have proliferated across our nation.

Biden admin.’s stunning hypocrisy on Mideast air strikes

Arizonans looking for facts regarding the Biden-ordered air strikes against Iran-backed militia in Iraq and Syria on Sunday evening will have to locate the information somewhere other than on the pages of the radically left-wing local newspaper which focuses on sports and diversity.

This Department of Defense statement notes the U.S. military targeted operational and weapons storage facilities at two locations in Syria and one location in Iraq.

The strikes came at the direction of Pres. Joe Biden‘s handlers, the second time his surrogates have ordered retaliatory strikes against Iran-backed militia since taking office five months ago. Biden last ordered strikes against a target in Syria in February, that time in response to rocket attacks in Iraq.

Military action is often necessary to secure our troops and aid our allies. It’s the predictable hypocrisy that warrants scrutiny.

The U.K.’s Daily Mail provides this exposé, reporting that the views were decidedly different when President Trump authorized military action.

Four years ago, Biden’s mouthpiece Jen Psaki — formerly Obama’s Communications Director — tweeted her dismay at Trump-sanctioned air strikes on the very same country which her boss approved a bombing raid last night.

“What is the legal authority for strikes? Assad is a brutal dictator. But Syria is a sovereign country,” Psaki wrote in April, 2017.

In June 2019, Biden referred to President Trump as “erratic” and “impulsive” for taking the same actions his administration is now taking.

Brain eroding Trump Derangement Syndrome still exists & UPDATE

Fraudulent RINOs reveal themselves as closeted dems

UPDATE: This morning the national news picked up on the fact that Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer, a Republican, referred to former President Donald Trump as “unhinged.” That irrational comment has dominated SRAZ’s comment section, though it was not today’s intended topic.

RINOcrats are not content with former President Trump being out of office, They want his head on a platter and continue to demonize his supporters.

As the far left Biden administration has brought us failing job numbers, increased inflation, $trillions in debt, soaring prices on everything from food to gasoline, students losing a year of schooling and hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens given sanctuary in the United States, the myriad calamities affecting our country continue to increase.

Rational Americans are reeling in the wake of the calculated destruction foisted on us and worsening during the COVID pandemic, as record-breaking border-crossers, nearly a tenfold increase from 2020, untested for the virus, are given safe passage as they fan out to settle across the United States. As Hamas has lobbed rockets at Israel, our Middle East ally, the radical leftist members of the so-called Squad, have backed the violent bomb-lobbing Palestinians and denounced the only democracy in the region.

The contrast to the Trump administration where employment soared to historic highs and the effective border wall was under construction appears irrelevant.  Anti-Trumper Republicrats have signed a letter threatening to leave the GOP.  Proof that liberalism is indeed a mental disorder a skewed NORAC/AP poll originating at the University of Chicago, suspiciously indicating Americans are growing more optimistic about the direction of the country, with 54% saying things in the country are heading in the right direction and 44% saying they are headed in the wrong direction. While the vast majority of Democrats (84%) think things are heading in the right direction, only 20% of Republicans agree. The Associated Press (AP) is dishonestly described as an “independent global news organization dedicated to factual reporting.” Another poll, however, showed “few are satisfied” with Biden’s approach to immigration, border security, and particularly toward the recent surge of unaccompanied children at the southern border.”

With these facts as background, check out the following website of opportunistic extremist Republicrats who grandly denounce the “political extremism” in which they are engaging.

“When in our democratic republic, forces of conspiracy, division, and despotism arise, it is the patriotic duty of citizens to act collectively in defense of liberty and justice,” reads the preamble to the full statement, fallaciously titled, “When in our democratic republic, forces of conspiracy, division, and despotism arise, it is the patriotic duty of citizens to act collectively in defense of liberty and justice,” reads the preamble to the full statement, fallaciously titled, “A Call for American Renewal.”

It’s rife with malcontents and former office holders. Stirred in among the mostly unknown signers are a few democrat collaborators who benefited from their alliances with the Republican Party who will be recognizable to Arizonans, including Mary Peters and former U.S. Rep. Jim Kolbe who was involved in the cover-up of the sexual scandal involving congressional male pages that took down U.S. Rep. Mark Foley. Another that leaped off the list is former East Valley state legislator (LD-25) Bob Worsley, who campaigned on open borders.

Mega McCain puts coarseness, ignorance on display

It came as a surprise to read that vacuous motor-mouth Mega McCain got something right. She is quoted as slamming a family as “old, archaic, and deeply irrelevant.” The description fit her late father who opportunistically ran as a Republican but colluded with democrats throughout his career. It is also an apt description of her Joe Biden-endorsing mother, beer heiress Cindy Lou Hensley McCain.

It turns out, however, the family she was describing wasn’t her own, but the British royal family. Her timing epitomizes her lack of class and empathy coming on the heels of the recent death of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, husband of 95-year-old Queen Elizabeth II.

The chunky McCain also gave an insight into her diet choices, declaring she’d “rather eat a muddy tire” than watch Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla. Mega looks as though she’s been binging on them for years, likely with a heavy coating of calorie-rich dark chocolate.

Far left AZ Republic manufactures news to fit its agenda

Today’s edition of the Republican loathing local newspaper headlines a Page One story with an intended to be incendiary account of campaign donations to two GOP members of the Arizona Congressional delegation by U.S. Rep. Matt Goetz, in what is an absurd attempt to smear them with guilt by association. The newspaper accuses them of “remaining silent” regarding the non-issue.

Florida Congressman Matt Goetz is a Republican, which is the first strike against him as coverage in the hard left media goes. This survey of reporters, reported in Politico, was taken prior to the sweeping election of President Donald Trump, so the 7% who identified as Republicans has no doubt dropped since then.

Goetz has been accused of crimes involving underage girls, which he vociferously denies. The double standard is clear as it relates to democrats such as New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez, who survived despite a DOJ investigation alleging he used underage prostitutes on numerous trips to the Dominican Republic which were “specific and corroborated.” He remains in the U.S. Senate.

A hard-core leftist originally appointed to the senate seat, Menendez also survived an ethics complaint and then voted to permit legal status to illegal aliens convicted of domestic violence, crimes against children and crimes relating to the illegal purchase or sale of firearms.

As president, democrat Bill Clinton engaged in a sexual relationship with a 22-year-old White House intern, survived a cursory impeachment for suborning perjury and remained in office. The newspaper lavished him with praise and endorsed his wife, Hillary, for president in 2016.

Recently freshman California Congressman Eric Swalwell was exposed for engaging in a romantic relationship with a Chinese spy. But the democrat cemented his valuable asset status as he joined the unified democrats in passing the disastrous overreach H.R. 1, the nearly 800-page bill deceptively titled, For the People Act,  that received not a single Republican vote according to the Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Freshman Arizona U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly, a democrat who has $multi-million business connections in China, and received campaign funding from Socialist billionaire George Soros, which was never a problem for the radically left Arizona Republic, that worked double time to see this charlatan elected.

Biden’s open border policy not a winning issue with US voters

“A nation without borders is not a nation.”

 – President Donald Trump…whose southern border wall construction has been halted by Joe Biden’s handlers

A newly released Rasmussen Reports poll reveals that 73% of Likely U.S. voters are concerned about the Biden administration’s ability to handle the growing number of illegal aliens at the border while meeting COVID-19 protocols. That includes 48% who say they are Very Concerned.

Border crossings have surged since Joe Biden’s Jan. 20th inauguration, and officials in Texas last week expressed alarm at the number of illegals who test positive for the coronavirus and are being released into the United States, where they fan out around our nation. Sick, well, or infecting like Typhoid Mary, they are future democrats, who will faithfully vote though they are not proficient in English and have no knowledge of ballot issues.  Some nice person from the democrat party will assist with ballot marketing and even transporting Jose and Juanita’s ballots to democrat headquarters for safe keeping until they are taken to the elections department.

Delineations between America’s two political parties are unmistakably  obvious. The democrat party has made it abundantly clear that it is the party of immigration lawlessness, mass illegal immigration and remains stridently unconcerned about the impact of imported low wage labor on Americans — many of whom have been out of work for the past year, when the pandemic brought on widespread business closures.

Mexican President Lopez-Obrador, who had a respectful interaction with President Trump, was one of the last foreign leaders to congratulate Biden following his inauguration.

Today marks 57 days since Biden, obviously in cognitive decline, has been in office and is continuing to dodge the still swooning radical, left-dominated media. His guarded spokesperson, Jen “Circle Back” Psaki, speaks for him without revealing much. On his first week in office, Biden acknowledged he was “a dictator” by circumventing congress as he signed stacks of prepared, leather-bound executive orders.

How long will the media swoon continue before they remove the kid gloves and demand answers? It’s past time for Arizona’s far-left U.S. Senators Mark Kelly and Kyrsten Sinema, along with the acquiescently silent and deceitfully complacent democrat congressional delegation of Tom O’Halleran (CD-1), Ann Kirkpatrick (CD-2), Raul Grijalva (CD-3), Ruben Gallego (CD-7) and Greg Stanton (CD-9) to remove the socks from their mouths. They all need to face strong Republican challengers.
