Look, I think she definitely reacted the way she did because she knew she was being recorded. And I'm not saying she wouldn't have had the same response had she not known, but it might not have been as polished up for mass consumption and patriotic sound bites.
However, he said what he said. There's no getting around it. And the fact they have more recordings tells me that she had to have been approached multiple times prior to that, which forced them to start recording in the first place.
Also add into the fact that he immediately resigned and hopes she doesn't release the rest of the recordings, speaks volumes.
Yes. I think the fact that she has been a journalist for 30+ years, she knows how things can be taken out of context and spun for sound bites. I know that for every on-camera interview or other appearance she did when campaigning for governor, she stated that she brought her own film crew to 'also' record and video the event so that she could refute any liberal media spin or misinformation claims, as they are so wont to do.
In this case, she rightly recorded this convo with the guy because he made her feel suspicious with his demand to speak to her in person only, while saying, 'This conversation can only be done in person, not on the phone...' statement.

That right there is enough for me. How dumb is this guy?
I would be very careful with my words around a known journo, cause you just don't know whose side they're on. And definitely wouldn't be offering fucking bribes to them. They KNOW other journos! DUH!
I have no problem with kari lake setting up the idiot. your dealing with a former news reporter and you don't stop to think she might record you? that's their bread and butter. FOOL!
He's got to be an idiot anyway. Before I talking to anyone on a subject so scandalous I would have the frisked for a wire. Either that or put a horse in their bed the day before.
Seveal years ago the infamous mayor of DC used the same defense when he got caught doing coke...no claims of innocence just 'Da bitch set me up". Phrase became famous and made it onto T-shirts in the area.
Gerald Ford, covered up the Warren Report, Jamie Gorlic Asst.AG under Clinton covered up the pre-911 surveillance in the 9-11 report both were given birbes, Ford was given the Presidency, Gorlic was given a seat on the New York FED, this is what the deep state does to reward their players.This is just a couple, I'm sure there are many, and many contributors in here know others who have been rewarded, either by money, positions, or both.
You could tell when Lake said they'll have to kill me that she has been getting death threats.
She had every right to try to get the names of those behind it. She was doing her best to get DeWit to cough up those names, and all he would give up that it was some big players back east.
She already knows someone else's name behind the threats and bribes. Which she indicated when she asked DeWit if this is our 'friend' behind the bribe offer.
When he refused to cough up the names, she burned him to the ground. She is playing hard ball with her enemies, and I like that. Someone that knows who wants you taken out, but refuses to identify them is not your friend.
Lake's hard-ass resolve to take them down is what every patriot has to show them. It will put the fear in their toadies. DeWit is just another toady that got exposed. The real fight is against those giving him his orders.
If the whitehats really have it all they know exactly who is giving the orders, and if they don't then they don't have it all. However, DeWit just gave them a good opportunity to find the hidden enemy in this instance. All they need to do is put the pressure on the toady until he cracks.
I doubt it. DeSantis is just another puppet. Our friend is likely some bankster that has been pressuring her to quit. I'd say the way he said no, its from back east, the friend is someone there in Arizona.
What he really means is: he's pissed she released the tape before he did.
What isn't he telling us? They both recorded the conversation. Lake didn't play along and "name a number", so he could use it to blackmail her down the road, when it looked like she was going to win.
I wonder how many other basically decent nascent citizen statesmen fell for the same trick?
Interesting question from Ann Vander Steel: if Kari had had the recordings for 10 mos., why release them now? Why did she "sit" on it until now? "Life insurance"?? Inquiring minds.....
I think that Lake delayed releasing until WHs (who probably have all of the recordings) had their conversation with dewitt to try to get him to flip on the 'back east' group. Offer was probably... we will release this one tape and you resign in return for us not releasing more damaging tapes which would lead to criminal charges on you.
She didn’t proposition anything, she didn’t bring the coke, propose a timeout, a corporate job, a “number”, he did all of that.
Is it possible there is more? Sure, let’s put him on the horns and find out first of all who the “they them” are that can provide any number or who presumably control Fortune 500 companies to the extent they can offer no show executive jobs at.

This. He's head of the party that protected noname and the Maricopa steal.
Oh she was definitely correct in doing what she did.
And he got caught big time.
Soon he'll be on Meet the Press opining how this was such a dirty trick, and the audio was edited. But I guarantee he'll never say what was edited.
He'll say he'd rather not get into the politics of it and he'd rather just move on
Book it
And then she’ll release the u redacted full version…
That right there is enough for me. How dumb is this guy?

f he flipped, this story could be cover for his deal (this "punishment" rather than jail for "other offenses" in return for intel).
He's got to be an idiot anyway. Before I talking to anyone on a subject so scandalous I would have the frisked for a wire. Either that or put a horse in their bed the day before.
get caught red handed bribing politicians. "I was set up" lol yes you were you retard
He wants to be the victim. kek

Saint Marion Barry aka Mayor for Life. He was reelected after serving jail time.
Yup. It is as I have seen suggested - "These people are STUPID!"
And didn't they vote him in again?
If he was set up then why did he resign?
Bingo
I wonder if other bribe attempts will come out.
Massive butt hurt. When a liberal rag is defending him, you have to go hmmmm.

The interesting part will be who else did she record?
Anyone that had a phone conversation with Kari is suffering from butt pucker right now. Kek
Indeed. At first I was skeptical of the timing as the recording was last March, but now thinking there may be more, a lot more.
You could tell when Lake said they'll have to kill me that she has been getting death threats.

I wonder if she might have been referring to Ron DeSantis?
I doubt it. DeSantis is just another puppet. Our friend is likely some bankster that has been pressuring her to quit. I'd say the way he said no, its from back east, the friend is someone there in Arizona.

"Whether she remains untouchable now is another question." And the MSM spin begins...
PS: Whoever downvoted you did not comprehend your article link.
What sort of BS is this? Only the main stream media could take an obvious bribe and corruption event and then blame the victim.
Interesting question from Ann Vander Steel: if Kari had had the recordings for 10 mos., why release them now? Why did she "sit" on it until now? "Life insurance"?? Inquiring minds.....
Because you don’t waste ammunition needlessly- it makes sense to keep it until deploying it would bring maximum tactical advantage
I think that Lake delayed releasing until WHs (who probably have all of the recordings) had their conversation with dewitt to try to get him to flip on the 'back east' group. Offer was probably... we will release this one tape and you resign in return for us not releasing more damaging tapes which would lead to criminal charges on you.
If it was he would have fought it and it could be proven. They got more in him than that. Pedo trafficker probably.
So he’s acknowledging that he said more damaging things on further recordings?
I thought they would eventually get around to claiming Kari actually set up the bribe so that she could make herself appear stronger.
Too bad these aren't the good all days... People back in the day wouldn't put up with this bullshit!
As another famous Democrat once claimed, "The bitch set me up!"
“Set Up”, for bribing someone?…laughable! 😂😂😂
What happened to all that money that deWit raised to fight voterfraud???
Oh, the irony!
Knowing what was about to happen so she recorded it is hardly a “set up”😂
She didn’t proposition anything, she didn’t bring the coke, propose a timeout, a corporate job, a “number”, he did all of that.
Is it possible there is more? Sure, let’s put him on the horns and find out first of all who the “they them” are that can provide any number or who presumably control Fortune 500 companies to the extent they can offer no show executive jobs at.
