Wow... an actual, literal "Republicans in disarray" headline. (From the BBC.)
Hobbs, Fontes, and Mayes have been sworn in as, respectively, governor, secretary of state, and attorney general of Arizona.
Defeated Big Lie promoters Lake, Finchem, and Hamadeh are still flailing in court demanding to have the results voided and themselves installed in office on the grounds that they say they won.
They should be careful with this headline. George Santos will claim he's Pele before you know it.
So the only year the orange maniac's tax returns show significant income, it was almost all from selling a property his father bought.
He's still coasting on what he inherited. Otherwise, he fails.

BREAKING: Former President Trump's federal tax returns released by a Democratic-led US House committee

Two years ago Santos claimed he was half African American.
You seriously couldn't make this guy up.

So the only substantial error revealed in the AZ recount (not enough to change the AG race outcome, but it narrowed the margin) was in very red Pinal county.
Rs are screaming that the error proves all their conspiracy theories.
They think a very red county suppressed R votes intentionally?
Most of them will probably just pretend it was Maricopa's error, since they lie about everything anyway.
So Tesla's stock is rallying, despite more bad news about the company's profitability and overall standing.
Investors often seem like another species. Their thought processes make no sense to me.
Important new data continues to show the bivalent booster enhances the immune response against *all* known variants, including XBB. (Chise is a vaccine scientist at Moderna.)
Anyone who hasn't gotten the bivalent booster, should.

Jan. 6 response would have been 'vastly different' if rioters were Black, House sergeant at arms told investigators
Lordy. Even Tulsi Gabbard in her Fox role wasn't taking Santos's BS or his pathetic attempts to whatabout his lies with "Biden! Hunter!"

Musk has personally lost something like $140 billion in the Tesla plunge. Though with the company always grossly overvalued, much of his fortune was built on sand anyway.
He admitted many of the lies, and dismissed them with "everyone lies." He's refusing to resign, and he can't be forced. The district he won is swingy, but Biden won it by 10. Rs will fear losing the seat in a special election, so they'll likely protect him until '24.
After the sanctions motion was filed, Lake's tweet spewing conspiracy theories against the judge was deleted.
Someone realized that wasn't the best way to win over the judge, huh?
