One of the longest-serving members in the state House of Representatives announced Friday he is challenging Sen. Wendy Rogers in the 2024 primary election for her seat after Rogers shared sexually explicit images of President Joe Biden’s son.
In a now-deleted Twitter post from Wednesday, Rogers, R-Flagstaff, shared a video about Hunter Biden which contained sexually explicit images of Biden, who many Republicans want to be investigated for alleged Illegal foreign activities. The photos originally came from a laptop used by Hunter Biden that the FBI seized for an investigation of the president’s son.
“It’s all here in black and white. Oh and apparently in NBC living color,” Rogers wrote in the post where she shared the video.
Upon realization that the video contained a picture of Hunter Biden’s genitalia, Rogers deleted the post. Arizona’s Family 3TV/CBS5 reported the incident and the following statement from Senate President Warren Petersen, R-Gilbert.
“(Rogers) didn’t realize those images were in that video until it was brought to her attention, and she immediately removed the video from her feed,” Petersen said in the statement.
But the incident was “completely unacceptable” for one representative who also represents Legislative District 7, Rogers’ district.
