Arizona Republican leaders such as Gov. Doug Ducey and Chair Kelli
Ward had opposing reactions to the insurrection at the U.S.
Capitol. Ducey initially condemned the riots on Twitter and
then again addressed it in Monday's State of the State address. "In
the United States of America, violence and vandalism have no
place in the people’s house. Perpetrators should be prosecuted
to the full extent of the law. Let us condemn it and resolve that
it never happens again," said Ducey. On the day of the
attack, Ward attended a Protect the Vote rally, where she continued
to question the validity of the election results. The riots
at the U.S. Capitol highlight a growing fissure within the party.
It’s at a crossroads, caught between moderate and extremists. With
Ward likely to maintain power, the tone for the party is being set
by the far-right. Is it possible for moderates to regain control?
In this week's episode of The Gaggle: An Arizona politics podcast,
hosts Yvonne Wingett Sanchez and Ronald J. Hansen speak with
Kirk Adams. Adams is a former Republican member of the Arizona
House of Representatives. He also served as the chief of staff for
Ducey from 2014 to 2018. Listen now to hear as
Adams breaks down how the Arizona GOP save itself from the
