Like her mentor, the Grifter-in-chief, Lake raised money off her defamatory lies, now she will raise money from the same gullible rubes off her courtroom loss.
(The Hill)Attorneys for Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake moved to forfeit a defamation case against her Tuesday, choosing not to contest the allegations that she defamed a state election worker after the 2022 election.
Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer (R) sued Lake last year in his personal capacity, claiming Lake defamed him after she refused to concede her 2022 Arizona gubernatorial defeat and alleged election fraud.
Richer held up the filing as an admission of guilt.
“Won’t defend / can’t defend,” he wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter. “I’ll get my due. But not the millions of people she lied to.”
“Not the thousands of people who donated ‘to continue the fight.’ Not the people who have gone to jail because they so strongly believed Kari’s lies,” he continued. “Those people won’t get their due.”
