Former Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers spoke to the FBI for hours about the post-election pressure he received from Donald Trump. As stevebenen writes, that's not good news for the former president.
It was against this backdrop that NBC Newsthat special counsel Jack Smith’s office has subpoenaed the Arizona secretary of state’s office.
[A spokesperson for the secretary of state’s office] said Smith sought information linked to a pair of lawsuits, one filed by former President Donald Trump’s campaign and the other by former Arizona Republican Party chair Kelli Ward, that claimed errors and fraud tainted the 2020 presidential election results.
What’s more, just as the public was learning about this aspect of the criminal investigation, a key figure in Arizona politics was making some news of his own. CNNA former top Republican official in Arizona, who rejected pressure from Donald Trump and his allies following the former president’s 2020 election defeat, told CNN Wednesday night that he has spoken with the FBI as part of the ongoing criminal probe related to efforts to overturn the vote.
, including an instance in which he recalled hearing Giuliani tell him, “We’ve got lots of theories. We just don’t have the evidence.”, as part of his description of his conversation with Giuliani and Trump, “I said, ‘Look, you are asking me to do something that is counter to my oath when I swore to the Constitution to uphold it, and I also swore to the Constitution and the laws of the state of Arizona.
All of which is to say, the fact that the FBI interviewed Bowers for four hours is not good news for a certain someone at Mar-a-Lago.
