Arizona GOP lawmaker calls for violence

[left-of-center2012]

Midway through a white nationalist’s conference in Orlando last month, one speaker drew applause calling for gruesome violence against “traitors” ...
“We need to build more gallows,” the speaker said, adding that such a deadly fate would
“make an example of these traitors who’ve betrayed our country.” The speech ... was delivered by Arizona state Sen. Wendy Rogers, a Republican lawmaker who represents tens of thousands of constituents and has found a rising national profile as a face of the radicalized wing of the GOP.

Rogers’s trajectory shows the political and financial incentives of going to extremes. She raised nearly $2.5 million in 2021, outraising even statewide candidates for governor, attorney general and secretary of state, according to campaign finance records. Nearly $2 million of that money came from small donations from outside Arizona ... Rogers has moved unapologetically farther to the edges of American politics: Calling for jailing and executing her political opponents, identifying herself as a member of the Oath Keepers militia group, and attending a conference organized by a group linked to QAnon, the violent anti-government ideology.

Rogers is the prime sponsor of about a dozen voting-related bills, including some that experts say would make statewide elections virtually impossible. She has proposed eliminating electronic vote-tabulating machines and requiring hand counts in a state that cast more than 3.3 million ballots in 2020. Rogers has echoed Trump’s baseless assertions that mail-in voting is a major source of fraud, and backed another bill that would do away with early voting ...

Rogers posts constantly on six social media accounts, ranging from mainstream platforms like Twitter to sites favored on the right, including Telegram and Gab. She has more than 700,000 followers between the six accounts.

8. Have the Republicans seriously not considered how many Republicans they will

disenfranchise with their repressive, anti-American voting laws? They act like Democrats are the only voters who use mail-in ballots or who vote early.
