Opinion: The Republican Party’s rebuke of Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell for seeking sanctions against Kari Lake is stunning. Did the party learn nothing in 2022?

The far-right contingent that controls the Arizona Republican Party continues its steady diet of eating its own.
Now on the menu: Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell.
This, for the high crime of daring to seek sanctions against Kari Lake — for trying to hold the failed gubernatorial candidate accountable for using the courts to further a false narrative that the election was stolen.
As a result, the Maricopa County Republican Committee is hoping to knock off Mitchell in next year’s election.
No, really.
Mitchell is only the latest Republican to face the wrath of the party.
