@sosofly said in AZ Lawmaker tells Garland that he BETTER NOT touch AZ ballots.:
Garland ought to Arrest the whole lot of everyone involved in this sham Recount. They all are breaking federal law blatantly. Just another gimmick and distraction from a failed political party with no platform and no direction other then attempting to take away the rights of Americans to vote. Anyone involved in this Trump Big Lie inspired fraud of a recount needs a lifetime ban from holding public office.
These poor souls (realize, for one, the TONS of cash these people - the company behind this, not the actual people "counting") are not breaking any Federal Law - I'm sorry, I attack specious arguments on both sides of the political spectrum.
The laws governing the counting of ballots are all, 100% State (and territory) laws - in this case, AZ law - which the US AG has absolutely no authority to enforce.
The news story here is a Straw Man one... no different than if I said "If @sosofly thinks he can come here and rape my daughter, he should know I'll shoot to kill" - even though you don't have any idea where I live, you probably don't know if I have any daughters, and you're gay - you wouldn't even be attracted (sexually) to any of them... But it sure grabs headlines!
The threat that the US AG was planning to interrupt the AZ vote recount farce was wrong: he has no jurisdiction over it. Further, he had never said there were plans to do anything about it. And, finally, the assertion that an AZ lawmaker could have the US AG arrested for coming to AZ is wrong on so many fronts as to be laughable!
