After the US Attorney for Arizona was dismissed by the Bush administration in December 2006 as part of a purge of multiple US Attorneys, the two Republican senators from that state quickly recommended that a Hopi attorney, Diane Humetewa, be nominated as his replacement.

Assistants to then-Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove, however, were less enthusiastic about Humetewa than Senators John McCain and Jon Kyl. Rove himself agreed that the appointment should be blocked, writing in a recently-revealed email, “Replace Blanquita.”
