Kari 'Fake' Lake Is Not Having A Good Week

Now she's calling her own state a "banana republic." Can you say meltdown?

By John Amato — November 11, 2022

How it went: On Election Day, far-right Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake attacked reporters covering her press gaggle, vowing to reform the media as is presently constructed.

"I'm going to be your worst freaking nightmare for eight years. We will reform the media as well," Lake said. "We're going to make you guys into journalists again."

Fox News then cut away from her gaggle to the studio and John Roberts was particularly perturbed with her comments.

Hey Fix Noise.....do you even comprehend that just maybe you and other RW cabal media have a hand in this .......I personally think all of the sports advertisers should leave your organization because your boss and his heir and that business' model are dangerous to this country and others....

If so, she just had to read whatever was put in front of her on the teleprompter screen.

Perfect, now all she has to do is read and regurgitate the shit the Republican Party puts in front of her.

She got her required, fake female Republican "Rack" and headed into politics.

When I was young and ignorant, I used to think that those in the presidency, House Members, Senate Members, governors, etc were the smartest and best we had in the U.S. Then came the 60's, Vietnam, the military draft, etc etc etc and most of us figured out just how disillusioned we all were about the top people in political office and their knowledge which was far lower than ours.......

as Bang Bang Boebert and Green............

Republican women watched the likes of Kelly Anne Conway, Sarah Palin, Sarah Huckapig, etc and figured they also could launch themselves into national politics.

She was never really interested in doing the work of governing the state l.

IMO she would fit him perfectly. Watch this space

was asked by a BBC reporter how she could report evidence-based news on TV for years and then run for public office repeatedly making claims not supported by any evidence.
