    Gotta go with the last tweet.

    Let's see the proof.

    Right now I'm betting they're just trying to drum up interest in a book....but who knows.

    That's what the tweets imply. The allegations, however, are second-hand:

    https://www.rawstory.com/arizona-republicans-2659474520/

    The Arizona Republic reports that Jacqueline Breger, the witness who
    last week accused multiple state officials of taking bribes in exchange
    for manipulating statewide elections, was actually relaying the theories
    of a man named John Thaler, a one-time lawyer from Scottsdale whose law
    license has been suspended.

    The Republic reached out to Thaler to ask him to elaborate on his claims
    about Arizona officials taking bribes, and he said that indicated that
    Arizona State Sens. Wendy Rogers and Ken Bennett both possessed
    "documents that meet the characteristics of those documents used in the
    money laundering and bribery schemes."

    Thaler offered no concrete proof of his claims when asked by the
    newspaper, however.

    Yeah....this ones almost as far out as the theory that Covid was leaked from a lab and all those testimonials from scientists and WHO etc. was
    really a bunch of Chinese propaganda.
    That one had zero chance of ever being proven true....

    The Slovenly Sackster tries to bob and weave, but ends up
    falling on his face.

    I am a recovering social worker

    I can attest to the failure of your "recovery". You're still dumb as dirt.

    BTW, I have instructed you several times to remediate Shmoo scottw's
    habit of abusing apostrophes. It is your responsibility as his enabler.
    So far, I've seen zero progress on that front. Get on the stick already.
