Noem Campaigning in Scottsdale for Election-Liar Extraordinaire Kari Lake

Speaking of travel, Governor Kristi Noem is heading for the border… of Trumpist insanity. While Noem canceled multiple East Coast campaign events due to her recovery from back surgery, Jacob Newton reports she’s headed to Arizona today to campaign with election-denying conspiracy theorist Kari Lake:

Say, does it look like Kari airbrushed her own photo more than she airbrushed Kristi’s? “The Kari Lake” campaign FB post, 2022.09.29.

On October 4, 2022, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is expected to be in Scottsdale, AZ, at the offices of Jetset Magazine (a publication which seeks to “define affluence with the best in luxury cars, travel, private jets, yachts, fine dining, fashion, and high-end living) for a campaign event for Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake.

The event, Coffee with Kristi & Kari, will be held at 9:00 a.m. Guests must RSVP to the event, which is being hosted by Moms For Kari [Jacob Newton, “Noem to Campaign for Election Denier in Arizona,” KELO-TV, 2022.10.03].

Campaigning at the office of Jetset Magazine—how tone deaf is the Noem campaign?

Noem will just miss Senator Ted Cruz, who’s coming to another Phoenix suburb to campaign for Lake and equally sleazy Trumpist Senate candidate Blake Masters tomorrow, October 5. Trump himself is returning to Arizona Sunday to campaign for Lake and “the entire Arizona Trump ticket“.

Like Noem, Lake is proud to hang out with blatant election liar Mike Lindell. Lake herself lies about elections, even when she’s winning:

Lake claimed she won 70 percent of votes cast on Tuesday but also insisted that even the midterm primaries were rife with election fraud.

“Our election system is messed up,” Lake said. “I wish our election officials had their act together. I wish they could count votes” [Elias Weiss, “Six Nutty Things We Saw at Kari Lake’s Election Night Party in Paradise Valley,” Phoenix New Times, 2022.08.04].

Lake is paying a convicted January 6 insurrectionist to work on her campaign:

First up on stage Tuesday night was social media influencer Brandon Straka, a self-described “former liberal” who founded the #WalkAway campaign and manages to be both alt-right and gay.

Straka, once a New York hairstylist, has more than half a million followers on Twitter. Now, he works for the campaign.

“We are going to take the country back from the liberal media,” he shouted to a roaring crowd.

Straka was on house arrest when he met Lake last year.

He spent three months in home detention, wearing a GPS tracker, after he was nabbed breaking into the U.S. Capitol alongside other insurrectionists on January 6, 2021. He pleaded guilty to charges of disorderly conduct, spending another 36 months on probation. He was also ordered to pay $500 in restitution and a $5,000 fine, and was sentenced to community service [Weiss, 2022.08.04].

Much like Noem, Lake dresses herself up in fake Christianity:

“You can call us whatever you want, Joe. You can call us extremists. You can call us domestic terrorists. You know who else was called a lot of names, his whole life? Jesus.”

— Kari Lake, MAGA Republican candidate for governor of Arizona

Lake was standing in front of a giant cross when she declared Arizona’s MAGA Republicans are persecuted just like their Christ, the Christ I saw on their blasphemous T-shirts and banners on Jan. 6, a Rambo-Galilean depicted brandishing a semi-automatic gun and sporting a MAGA cap.

I do not recognize this very American Jesus who calls on His followers to follow a remorseless, adulterous, false prophet, to persecute immigrants, to bear false witness, or to marginalize the least among us [David Fitzsimmons, “Candidate Kari Lake’s Christ Is Unfamiliar to This Heather Sinner,” Tucson Arizona Daily Star, 2022.09.24].

And very much like Noem, Lake lies about her Democratic opponent:

In a three-minute social media video, set to dramatic music and featuring patriotic visuals, Lake claims that if Hobbs is elected governor “your kindergartner wouldn’t learn the Pledge of Allegiance, but your precious 5-year-old would be taught about sex.”

But her suggestion is built on misrepresentations of Hobbs’ votes and the content of various Arizona education bills.

LAKE: “As a legislator, Hobbs actually voted to block the Pledge of Allegiance, our National Anthem, our Constitution, the Declaration of Independence and even the Mayflower Compact from being taught to the next generation of Americans right here in Arizona.”

THE FACTS: Lake is distorting Hobbs’ voting record. When Hobbs was a state senator, she voted against Senate Bill 1289, which amended an existing law listing materials that teachers and school administrators are allowed to read or post in school facilities. That list includes the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem, among other documents. The bill added the Arizona state motto, “Ditat Deus,” which means God enriches, to the list. It also spelled out the wording of the national motto, adding “In God we trust,” to the list. No other changes were made.

The bill, which was approved by lawmakers and signed into law, did not affect the portion of the law that permits school staff to read or post the Pledge of Allegiance, the National Anthem, or the other documents Lake identified, experts say [Josh Kelety and Ali Swenson, “Fact Check: Kari Lake Distorts Katie Hobbs’ Education Votes,” AP via AZ Central, 2022.09.22].

You’d think a trip to see and be seen with such a political huckster would be bad for one’s health. But hanging out with one of Trump’s biggest liars is apparently just what Kristi’s doctor has ordered.

    Well done, Cory!!!

    Lake did have a great airbrushed job while Noem looks half airbrushed only on her right side. She is not symmetrical.

    Headed out of state for ANOTHER campaign. Of course she is. Bless her heart… @#$%^&*!

    How dare she!

    :)

    I believe Trump won, but that the election fraud could create a much bigger backlash that will make things much worse for the uniparty.

    Is everyone here beyond looking into the evidence?

    If you look around, you can find this book for purchase in Belle Fourche and Sturgis, but the retail price is $55:

    There is a well worn path from SD to AZ, even more well worn, now.

    I’m skeptical of women in leadership because of some evidence I’ve uncovered regarding OES and Christian Charities, but I’m also willing to look at the performance.

    Noem’s performance earned my vote and endorsement, for what that’s worth.

    Lake talks a good game, but we’ll see what happens on the border if she can overcome Pima County and Maricopa County’s vote fraud ops (Tempe and Scottsdale are CIA/Mossad territory where you can most certainly smell the sex ops).

    I think all her out-of-state campaigning is just an excuse for a hookup with Corey Lewandowsky.

    That manufactured controversy in Arizona about the Pledge Allegiance and such is pretty typical of the nonsense we see from the modern Republican Party.

    Also, the crime theme they’ve adopted is really strange. Crime rates have gradually decreased over the last 25 years. with blips up and down on a one or two year basis. Some of the insurrectionist crime may be affecting the statistics. Of course, Trump’s massive crime wave has not yet entered the statistics, yet.

    Speaking of Lewandowski and crime, he is his own crime wave.

    As always, when Noemb points the finger like she did at Representative Smith because he attended a BLM march, she is the one hanging out with vandals and insurrectionists. She gallivants with terrorists and slavers (her daughter). She is a crime wave surfer. With the drug needles on her smear ad towards Rep. Smith, the question needs to be: What kind of drugs does she use?

    Kristi frequently doubles up on her stupid pills, especially before speaking.

  8. John Dale 2022-10-04 12:37

    We live in a Democratic republic with elections. That means you have to campaign. This is campaigning. :D

    “Debating a conspiracy theorist like Kari Lake – who’s entire campaign platform is to cause enormous chaos and make Arizona the subject of national ridicule – would only lead to constant interruptions, pointless distractions, and childish name-calling.” – Nicolle DeMont ~ Hobbs campaign manager.
    Write this down. It describes your Governor in every campaign she’s lied her way through in a state so red lying is only needed if your compulsive.

    John Dale’s wife must be slave in her own home. Spearditch has an anonymous tip line, right?

  11. P. Aitch 2022-10-04 13:10

    *you’re” compulsively lying …

  12. buckobear 2022-10-04 13:14

    How is she getting to these events? Should we be docking her pay ??

  13. Arlo Blundt 2022-10-04 14:13

    Jet Set Magazine??? Yachts and Luxury cars?? John Dale and a gay hairdresser, on house arrest for being a Capitol Insurrectionist…Jesus and Brie. Our Governor’s true aspirations are showing. She’s too too big, too hot for just an elected position. She’s shooting to be the next Kardashian.

  14. Bonnie B Fairbank 2022-10-04 19:59

    Oh, buckobear, how does she get to these events and who pays for her travel? As much as this revelation truly grieves me, SHE’S A PUBLICITY AND MONEY WHORE, and not exacting about her wedding vows, either. Cory has pointed out dozens of times she should not be eligible for her salary while she’s campaigning (whoring) elsewhere, but we’re just little people. Ain’t nobody got time to listen to little people.
