Update: Comment from Mr. Finchem was sought several times including publicly on social media. To this date, no reply or response was provided or received.
John Thaler today released a statement revealing the source of the “anonymous texts” delivered to Representative Joseph Chaplik of the AZ House Ethics Committee. These texts were used as a key Exhibit 5 for justification in the guilty verdict and subsequent expulsion of Liz Harris. In his letter, Thaler accuses Mark Finchem of arranging a meeting between Thaler and investigator Lyle Rapacki. Thaler claims he provided incomplete and out of context text screenshots under a confidentiality agreement saying “The documentation of text communications had been provided to Mr. Rapacki under a confidentiality agreement and only for his own consumption…”
Thaler asserts that the Ethics Committee should have dismissed the complaint and that through a representative, Finchem and Rapacki provided the text messages in an attempt to damage Harris’s reputation and saying “Mr. Chaplik’s statement that I anonymously provided them to his office is false.”
Thaler also alleges that “Mr. Chaplik and the Committee failed to provide the texts to Ms. Harris. Instead, Mr. Chaplik and the Committee shamelessly sought to ambush Ms. Harris. Moreover, despite knowing that the texts were incomplete and out of context, Mr. Chaplik intentionally sought to mislead the Legislature and the public by falsely claiming that the contents of the texts contradicted statements made by Ms. Harris in her written response to the Committee.”
This evidence should have been inadmissible.
Thaler also states that “The presentation that, once again, had only been completed two hours prior to delivery.” and “Chairman Chaplik ignored the (cease and desist) letter and then falsely claimed that he received it after deliberations had concluded. Yet again, Mr. Chaplik’s statement is false.”
Thaler ends the letter saying “The Committee’s actions will be forever tainted by Chairman Chaplik’s actions unless or until he corrects these errors.”
This was discussed in length in a video interview Liz Harris recently did with Jovan Pulitzer:

Update: It is confirmed that Chaplik is now doing this to multiple voters in his district. Neither of which mentioned his family or was harassing him at all. Joe is just playing victim and lying.
Below is a Cease and Desist letter to Representative Joseph Chaplik who is violating the First Amendment Constitutional Rights of a voter residing in his district by blocking that voter on social media.
Remember, when a Government Official does not know or understand the US Constitution like Representative Chaplik, you can notify them of the violation using the Arizona ACLU Social Media Blocking Toolkit.

UPDATE: More heavy-handed Tyranny and Gestapo-like behavior from from the AZGOP and Jeff Dewit at Tonight’s LD13 meeting as they barred the Maricopa County Chair and 1st Vice Chair from entry. The County chair is even part of the AZGOP Executive Committee! First Vice Chair Shelby Bush confirmed they were denied entry. When asked for a reason the response “No Guests” was simply given. They are not guests!
What further bullying and subjugation of PCs will the AZGOP and Jeff Dewit inflict behind closed doors in secret?
#ReinstateLizHarris
See event photos at bottom.
BONUS: Proof they Lied: “Liz Cant be nominated again” FALSE. You can’t reinstate ALSO A LIE:
Read the full adopted rules
ALERT: Jeff Dewit and AZGOP Improperly Seize Control of LD13 Meeting to vote on Liz Harris Replacement:
I have just learned (through first-hand information from an LD13 PC) that State GOP Chair @JeffDeWitAZ will be improperly taking over and running the LD13 meeting and has bullied the LD13 Chair completely out of the process. Further he will use law enforcement to prevent anyone from entering he doesn’t like. This is a gross overreach of the @AZGOP. Their reasoning is only the flimsy language of 41-1202. Vacancy in legislature; precinct committeemen; appointment; definition which states not that the State Chair will completely control and run everything, but rather “the state party chairman of the appropriate political party shall oversee the nominations“.
It DOES NOT say run the whole meeting and take everything over.
This is incredible Hypocrisy from Jeff Dewit and the AZGOP even as Jeff sends a letter citing that a District Committee is independent and a “sorvereign organization subject to its own governance“
Which is it Jeff? All signs point that Jeff Dewit and the AZGOP have improperly seized control and will make sure that a RINO replaces Liz Harris.

Fun Fact: The last time an Arizona House Representative (R Don Shooter) was expelled was 5 years ago over allegations of sexual misconduct. Representative Liz Harris’s alleged disorderly behavior is hardly an equivalent crime.
Hopefully you have read my other post: In Astonishing CYA AZ House Votes to Permanently Expel Liz Harris For Bogus Disorderly Behavior While Democrats Elsewhere Bring Bull Horns and Without Bothering Looking Into Allegations
The move was widely condemned as the wrong one and setting a dangerous precedent which will be misused against Republicans in future:
Ethics Committee Chair Allowed Inadmissible Questionably Obtained Screenshots Texts Between Harris and Thaler as Key Piece of Evidence
Page 4 of the Ethics Committee Report states:
“Additionally the Committee considered a series of screenshots of apparent text-message conversation between Representative Harris, Breger, and another individual, John Thaler, and marked these messages as Exhibit 5. Although the screenshots were left anonymously on the House Majority General Counsel’s desk in an envelope, the Chairman determined that the messages were relevant and could be considered by the Committee, despite the unusual circumstances under which the Committee received the evidence.”
Thaler sent a Cease and Desist to Joseph Chaplik on April 3rd saying that “I did not provide the messages to you or your committee, nor did I authorize anyone to provide them to you or to your office or to any department in the State Capitol.”
Thaler goes on to say “During this time, computer hacking to hinder our work and destroy our files has been constant. And I have stated the same in multiple filings with the courts. That appears to be the case currently.” This suggests that the text were obtained by illegal means through computer hacking!
Does this mean that prior to issuing the Committee Report on April 11th, Ethics Committee Chair Joseph Chaplik knew that Exhibit 5 was questionably obtained and should not have been admissible? If so, then why did he not call that fact out in the report or move to strike that evidence from the report or even note that it should be disregarded? The actions of the Kangaroo Court and Joseph Chaplik are unethical behavior for an Ethics Committee Chair and Committee.
UPDATE: In an ironic twist of fate, a screenshot of a text message from Representative Joseph Chaplik catches him lying to other AZ House of Representative members and consituents, saying incorrectly that Thaler provided the text screenshots:
The Arizona House vote on 4/12/2023 is null and void and should be vacated immediately.
BONUS FUN FACT: Is this Representative Chaplik texting for a full 50 seconds during the opening invocation/prayer between 1:00 and 1:50 in this video here? That is not the proper respect for God or your fellow house member who is speaking.
Please contact the AZ House representatives and ask that they vote to vacate this questionable vote and instead look into the allegations:

In an astonishing CYA moment, the Arizona House of Representatives voted to permanently expel Representative Liz Harris over a bogus Disorderly Behavior judgement from a Kangaroo Court ethics committee( watch the hearing) chaired by Joseph Chaplik. This was done while in other states Democrats are NOT permanently expelled for Disorderly Behavior while joining riots and bringing bullhorns to votes.
Please note that Joseph Chaplik waited until the final moments when it was clear the vote to expel would pass before changing his vote to No. (Clarification: a “change” in this case means voting No as it could have been left as NV as indeed Rep Gutierrez did)
It is stunning that neither the committee or the house would look into ANY of the allegations of fraudulent deeds of trust, corruption, RICO violations, bribery, or cartel involvement; particularly when this analysis of some of the fraudulent signature allegations appear to be true and warrant further investigation.
This was despite Rule 1 seeming to require a vote be in progress at the time (which was not).
This is very suspicious behavior by the Arizona House of Representatives. Please contact them and ask that they vote to rescind this questionable decision and look into the allegations:

Signature Fraud (fast forward to 4:20)

Below are screenshots showing evidence of coordinated efforts by Establishment Republicans including Candace Czarny LD3 (who recently lost an election and was replaced) and Merissa Hamilton LD2, both close allies of Dan Farley LD4 (who has already instituted a type of “Chinese Social Credit Score” in his LD as he plays victim against “bullying”) to maintain total secrecy, censor, and punish anyone they don’t agree with. This is clearly stomping on Free Speech and the 1st Amendment, much like Democrats working with Pfizer have done to censor truth and life-saving information against the Covid-19 killshot that they don’t agree with on social media.
If these efforts are allowed to continue and succeed, the Republican Party and the United States will soon lose all Free Speech and be relegated to socialist countries like France where a Woman Faces $13,000 Fine For Calling French President ‘Filth’ On Facebook.
If the endless injuries and deaths from the jab have shown us anything, it is that we must act to protect the 1st Amendment and Free Speech from any attempts at censorship.
When asked about these efforts by Candace Czarny’s “shadow board” private club, the newly elected LD3 Chair Bob Gomez had this to say:
“For those who are wanting to implement punishments for those who are speaking freely exercising their First Amendment rights–I cannot support doing anything that would hinder their ability to speak. I would certainly ask those that conduct themselves in a hurtful and disrespectful manner to reconsider what they say or write so that it maintains a considerate and respectful tone. For those individuals that refuse to do that, I think a simple coming together for a one on one conversation is the appropriate way for any two people who have a dispute to try to work it out in a more professional manner. We are not children for those who, like to punish their children. A more positive way of teaching children is to teach them how to do things properly in a positive way. For those receiving the criticism, one might look within themselves to try to understand what is causing the strong reactions from others. I cannot support penalties and punishment for those who choose to speak out, even if it is against me. It is incumbent upon me to reach out to them to see if I can work things out. Everyone involved should take a moment to try to look through God’s loving eyes and evaluate how God would conduct himself.”
– LD3 Chair Bob Gomez
Update: Candace has also created a special “Conduct Violation Complaint Form” (seen at the bottom) and encourages members to turn each other in. The parallels to what the Nazis did is stunning:
As the Nazis worked to consolidate their power and build a cohesive “national community,” suppression of dissent played a key role. In 1933, the Nazis issued a decree that required Germans to turn in anyone who spoke against the party, its leaders, or the government (see reading, Outlawing the Opposition in Chapter 5). That decree, “For the Defense against Malicious Attacks against the Government,” stated:
- Whoever purposely makes or circulates a statement of a factual nature which is untrue or grossly exaggerated or which may seriously harm the welfare of the Reich or of a state, or the reputation of the National government or of a state government or of parties or organizations supporting these governments, is to be punished, provided that no more severe punishment is decreed in other regulations, with imprisonment of up to two years and, if he makes or spreads the statement publicly, with imprisonment of not less than three months.
- If serious damage to the Reich or a state has resulted from this deed, penal servitude may be imposed.
- Whoever commits an act through negligence will be punished with imprisonment of up to three months, or by a fine.
To enforce the decree, the Nazis set up special courts to try people who were accused of “malicious attacks.” In December 1934, the government replaced the decree with the “Law against Malicious Attacks on State and Party,” adding a clause that criminalized “malicious, rabble-rousing remarks or those indicating a base mentality” against the Nazi Party or high-ranking government or party officials.

Update: The MCRC has released an official press release about the Election results.
On Thursday March 30th, 2023 One hundred and ninety- six (196) credentialed Legislative District 3 PCs met and voted in a new Board which were sworn in the same night by the Maricopa County Republican Committee Chairman. Even more PCs would have attended, if not for the EXTREME intimidation, lies, and deception of illegitimate chair Candace Czarny and even the AZGOP Chair Jeff Dewit sending communications telling PCs not to attend. Czarny even went so far as to use lawfare and file an injunction as reported by The Gateway Pundit, which was not granted, signed or served. The PCs were not fooled by the Democrat-like tactics and truth, justice, and the will of the PCs and the people prevailed! The night was filled with prayer, positive energy and a spirit of cooperation to win in 2024, a major change from the disastrous prior meetings, haphazardly run by the Tyrannical “Czar” who was not qualified or able to run them. Praise God that the truth was revealed!
An LD2 Board member, assisting as a volunteer for the election had this to say:
“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice” – Proverbs 29:2
Tonight I had the opportunity to help the MCRC as they conducted a new election in LD3. It was a joyful and positive night as they finally were able to hold transparent elections. 196 PCs were represented either in person or by proxy. They elected their Chairman ( Bob Gomez), 1st Vice Chairman (Michelle Rugloski), Secretary (Carol Torkko) and Treasurer (Kevin Maldonado) by unanimous acclamation. The 2nd Vice Chairman slot was a 3-way race and David Genge was elected on the first ballot with 146 of the 196 votes cast.
What does this mean for LD2? First, just watching the establishment attempt (and fail) to stop the election by bombarding LD3 PCs with misinformation and ultimately engaging in lawfare to attempt to stop them from choosing their leaders, made it apparent we still have work to do in rooting out those who crave power. Being a leader in the GOP means being a servant. I think of Solomon testing the two women by threatening to split the baby, and the true mother, willing to give up her child so that it might live. A true leader will sacrifice for the health of the body. The disputed Chair chose (and continues to choose) to damage LD3 and now the MCRC in an attempt to hold on to power. I understand that feelings are hurt and it’s a shame things devolved as they did when they didn’t have to. What I witnessed tonight, though, was true Liberty and it was inspirational! I would like our takeaway to be that even in the GOP, we have to remain vigilant about demanding transparency. I believe our Chairman has modeled this in an exceptional way and its is my honor to serve with him!
Over the next few weeks, we will be holding our PC’s to standards set forth in our bylaws. 50 of them have missed the last 3 meetings of the district (our first 3 of the new LD2). They will be contacted and asked for an explanation of those absences. Being a PC is not an emeritus position. It’s a commitment to the voters of their precinct and to the party. We may lose some, but hopefully, most will take this as a challenge to do better. We owe nothing less to all of you who work hard.
Cheers!
Mark Beach, LD2 First-VC

Update: Additional Response from another PC and The email From Jeff Dewitt sent to a larger audience is found below:
Jeff Dewitt is a LIAR and Here is the Proof:
In an secret email to a small number of LD3 PCs (I and many were not deemed worthy to receive it despite being elected State Committeemen), Jeff Dewitt is proven a LIAR. He claims:
“I have spent 100+ hours of my first month at the AZGOP involved in trying to mediate a solution for LD3”.
One of the common definitions of mediate is: to interpose between parties in order to reconcile (see RECONCILE sense 1a) them.
Tell me Jeff, how is it you “mediated” without meeting or talking to the opposite side? It seems like you spent 100 hours with the establishment hearing lies and zero hours meeting with anyone who witnessed the indisputable, hard, documented proxy fraud and election fraud in LD3.
Then Jeff goes on to say falsely: “…at a meeting of the LD3 PCs on January 12, 2023, where the PCs of LD3 voted in favor of upholding the previous election.” Yet you can CLEARLY hear that the motion in question was to accept the results of the STATE COMMITTEEMEN only an NOT THE OFFICERS in this video here:
Jeff Dewitt is a LIAR!
Additional Response from another PC:
“Election Integrity in Arizona elections, including our own intra-party elections, is among our utmost concerns at the AZGOP. ”
~~ It certainly wasn’t the concern 12/1/22. The amount of ballot harvesting, ballot completion at the door and allowance of questionable proxies was rampant. I was stationed at the entry door and witnessed this with my own eyes.
“To have the MCRC now go rogue and blindside everyone by circumventing all the great work people were doing to resolve this issue in a congenial manner is destructive to any solutions that could amicably mend the rift in LD3, which is troublesome and disappointing.”
~~ What great work are you referring to? The 12/1/22 vote was compromised by illegitimate proxies and PC’s recognized immediately that a revote was needed. Chairman Czarny tried to remove (DID remove temporarily) the ballots and refused to have an immediate recount. Efforts made at following meetings were ignored by telling PC’s they were “Out of Order” in anything BUT a congenial manner. Video recorded at the time will confirm this.
” …our Executive Board voted unanimously to request that LD3 postpone their March meeting until April,…”
~~~ Why does this can continually get kicked down the road? This could’ve been solved immediately (12/1/22).
“… Do we allow a county party to go rogue…”
~~ I attended the last two ECG meetings which were conducted quite well. Opposite of what LD3 Chairman Czarny’s leadership tactics.
Evidence was brought to light that could not be refuted. Chairman Czarny tried to pack the agenda with her cronies, use up the allowed Audience Speaking time by arriving and signing in 1+ hours early and refused to accept the MCRC vote (19-7) for an LD3 revote.
“There is no language in the ARS, MCRC or LD3 bylaws that permit an Organizational Meeting outside of the above timeline. As such, there is no method, course, or process for a re-vote for LD3 Officers by MCRC.”
~~ We wouldn’t have to ask for one if we revoted on 12/1/22 as we asked, but the request was refused by Chairman Czarny.
We already had met with our legal counsel for hours about this issue”
~~ A waste of time and money just like paying for PHXPD to attend our LD meetings. No one was violent. No one was threatened, but some used their anger at not getting their way as FEAR to sway the future decisions. They’ve been successful judging from your letter. Just watch the daily news and you’ll see the same tactics being used by the Left.
WHY is the AZGOP stepping into this just when we are on the verge of solving the issue by holding another vote 3/30/23?
Chairman DeWitt, you’ve stated that ” I am on neither side of this,…” however you are clearly ignoring the voices of the LD3 PC who want ELECTION INTEGRITY that starts at the grassroots level.
Look at the 2020 election please. Many Republicans won their offices, however Pres. Trump was defeated by a basement dweller?
You accept that?
The same situation occurred in LD3 where 3 candidate from the same slate won, BUT the top position(s) were won by members of the opposing slate? C’mon now….you really think that happened without some sort of credentialling/proxy/ballot misconduct?
I was witness to it! I picked up a handful of blank voting cards laying on a table! I say PC Captains running in and out of the entry door handing out paperwork. For God’s sake, a woman was filling out a proxy right outside the entry door as I stood there. Did I question it? CERTAINLY, but the vote was accepted anyway.
Now, Sir, please tell me why I shouldn’t want a revote under those circumstances?
Here is the forwarded email from Jeff Dewitt.

UPDATE: The Maricopa County Republican Committee has responded to Candace’s false email, saying: “In the event you have heard information to the contrary, please be assured this meeting will take place at the time and location specified…” and “We look forward to seeing you on March 30th! Thank you, Craig Berland MCRC Chairman.”
As predicted, Candace Czarny has tried a desperate tyrant gambit to cancel the March 30th LD3 Meeting saying “Please disregard the Maricopa County Republican Committee’s (MCRC) call letter calling for a new election for Executive Officers for LD3 on March 30, 2023”. Her email also stated “There will be no meeting.” Candace claims that the challenge did not challenge the officers which is a lie. See the original challenge at the bottom AND a SECOND challenge which ALSO mentions the officers!
She falsely claims “the MCRC is statutorily required to provide 10 days-notice in calling for a special meeting. The MCRC missed the deadline with the call letter in question.” That is also a lie. Letters were postmarked Monday, March 20th. Lets count shall we: 20=1, 21=2, 22=3, 23=4, 24=5, 25=6, 26=7, 27=8, 28=9, 29=10. 10 Days+ notice for a meeting on the 30th.
She then claims “This meeting that the MCRC is trying to call will not happen. There is no meeting on March 30, 2023, & there is no new election”.
She followed that up with a threat to involve the Arizona Republican Party of Arizona which has no authority over the Maricopa County Republican Committee, and of course a lawfare threat to the entire MCRC saying “I will be speaking to my legal counsel this week. Any further illegal interference in LD3 will be met in court.”
Candace is in a fantasy land of lies all design for the Tyrant to try and hold onto power.
If it walks like a DEMOCRAT and quacks like a DEMOCRAT, what is it?
LD3 WILL meet on March 30th and Elect a New Board–a REPUBLICAN one that honors the US Constitution and the values of a Republic.
