Shocking testimony from an Arizona Senate Committee on Elections and House Committee on Municipal Oversight and Elections meeting claims that Arizona elections have been rigged since at least 2004 and corruption is widespread.
The full video testimony is available below, but if you prefer to read the submitted written testimony, you can do so here. (There’s also a little more information in the written report that’s skipped over in the video)
This testimony comes from Jacqueline Breger, Lead Investigator at the Thaler/Harris Law Corporation, which specializes in forensic investigations of documents, document review, litigation strategy — that sort of thing.
The company was hired in 2014 to investigate money laundering by the drug cartels via purchases (or fake purchases) of single-family homes across the Midwest.
Authorities were concerned that proceeds from this laundering operation in Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa had made it down to Arizona, where a similar operation was being established. Investigations showed that not only was there a similar laundering operation in Arizona, but it was often run by the very same people who were convicted in those other states.
Breger claimed that what was presented to the committee was only the tip of the iceberg, and that her firm stands ready to assist authorities with any investigations. She then hinted that such investigations are already ongoing in other states.
Fake mortgages weren’t the only way to launder cash, according to Breger. Fake construction companies and fake charities made real donations — $7.5 BILLION — to bribe public officials and further the cartel’s goals. (Ever seen Ozark? It’s kind of like that!)
We even have a list of names……….
Berger goes on to state that the databases used by Arizona and other states feature backdoors that allow unauthorized changes to the machines (allowing them to falsify documents or delete legitimate ones), AND that investigators found piles of ballots and cash tied to Runbeck Election Services. (The company was also involved in Georgia during the 2020 race……)
Berger also alleges that at least 50 “phantoms” — people who don’t actually exist — have been appointed to election-related positions in the state. These and other “phantoms” are sometimes given degrees or professional licenses to further the cartel’s goals.
However, the story here isn’t without some question marks as well. To begin with, John Thaler (the original investigator) alleges the crime ring was run by Dawna Rae Chavez (58), and her daughter, Brittany Rae Chavez. Brittany Chavez just happens to be Thaler’s ex-wife — and the two seem to be going through a nasty custody dispute.
In addition, many of the documents provided in the report are of questionable value by themselves — namely the “close matches” fake trusts for Katie Hobbs and her husband. But as Matt Taibbi said the other day, you very rarely get all of the story from one person. Hopefully now a slew of people pick up the pieces of this investigation and uncover the truth, little by little.
I hit most of the main points here, but one more comment before I wrap this up — this report was given to then-Governor Doug Ducey (and the FBI) in May 2022. It would be extremely interesting to find out what Ducey did with this information. Supposedly he shared it with Arizona’s Attorney General, but obviously we didn’t hear about it until this week.
I don’t yet know exactly what to make of all of this, but it certainly is interesting!
I was wondering when someone would finally write a Substack about this. I shown of known you’d be the first hero on this story, of how we lost America!
