Earlier today, Jeff DeWit, chairman of the Arizona GOP, resigned after audio leaked that was recorded about a year ago showing him passing along an offer designed to convince Kari Lake to not run for Senate in that state. DeWit is heard on the recording explaining to Lake that she could profit from powerful people "back east" by backing away from politics for a couple of years.
