WTH: Far-Left Judge in Arizona Attorney General’s 2020 Electors Case Recuses Himself After Emails Show He Demanded That Other Judges Defend Kamala Harris, Compared Critics to Nazis

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes’ lawfare case against 2020 Trump electors is quickly falling apart as far-left judge Bruce Cohen, who oversaw the case, recused himself over a series of emails where he demanded that other judges stand up for Kamala Harris and minorities.

In April, Mayes indicted 18 individuals, including Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, RNC attorney Christina Bobb, conservative attorney John Eastman, and Trump campaign adviser Boris Epshteyn, for challenging the stolen 2020 election and casting an alternative slate of electors for President Trump.

The charges include nine counts of conspiracy, fraudulent schemes and artifices, fraudulent schemes and practices, and forgery. “Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizona’s voters,” Mayes’s indictment alleges. President Trump was named “Unindicted Coconspirator 1.”

The far-left Attorney General was previously installed after the rigged 2022 election, where 60% of machines failed on Election Day in conservative precincts across the state’s largest county. Notably, Mayes “won” her race by just 280 votes against Trump-Endorsed Abe Hamadeh. Now, she has a vendetta against Trump and the so-called election deniers who threaten the Democrat regime.

Recently, Mayes threatened an investigation into President Trump over his comments about RINO Liz Cheney, claiming he issued a “death threat” after he called her out for being a war hawk and supporting endless wars as long as she doesn’t have to be on the front lines. She later dropped the politically weaponized investigation following Trump’s landslide electoral victory.

In a slew of August emails recently obtained by Arizona House Speaker Pro Tempore Rep. Travis Grantham and reported by Arizona Daily Independent earlier this month, Judge Cohen lambasts white people, specifically white men, and loses it over people calling Kamala Harris a DEI hire after she was installed as the Democratic presidential nominee. He further urges his colleagues to no longer remain silent “merely because others are exercising their right to free speech.”

Clearly, those who exercised their First Amendment right to question the 2020 election wouldn’t stand a chance in front of this radical judge.

One email reads:

“It does matter if your chromosomes are made up of ‘XY.’ It matters even more if your skin color is characterized as ‘white’ or Caucasian. We must speak out. We must tell those within our circles of influence that this s**t must stop. NOW! We cannot allow our female colleagues to feel as if they stand alone when there are those who may intimate that their ascension was anything other than based upon exceptionalism. We cannot allow our colleagues who identify as being a ‘person of color’ to stand alone when there are those may claim that their ascension was an ‘equity hire’ rather than based solely upon exceptionalism. We no longer can stay silent merely because others are exercising their right to free speech — we, too, have that same right and must exercise it.”

In another email, Cohen compares Trump supporters to Nazis and accuses his fellow leftists of being complicit with modern-day Nazism. He cites Martin Niemoller’s essay about the people who stayed silent during the Holocaust:

“I have been reflecting on Martin Niemoller’s brilliant post-WWII essay known as ‘First they came for…’ While the subject matter of his commentary was one of the most horrific periods in world history, its instruction applies equally to present day events… When we cannot or do not stand with others, the words of Martin Niemoller are no longer a historic reference to the atrocities of WWII, those words describe the present.”

Cohen later apologized to his colleagues, noting improper use of the email system and a “lapse of judgment” in his unhinged rants about racism:

“Earlier this week I allowed my passion to cloud my judgment and sent an email using this as my forum. After reflection, I have come to realize that this was not proper use of this forum. I sincerely apologize to anyone put off or negatively impacted by my lapse of judgment.”

The judge recused himself a week after the emails were revealed and reportedly did not dispute sending these emails.

Prior to this, as The Gateway Pundit reported, Mayes and Governor Katie Hobbs admitted that the 18 defendants she is currently prosecuting for questioning the election did nothing wrong. Following the discovery of a statewide voter registration error that failed to verify the citizenship of 218,000 voters, Mayes admitted that the last two elections in Arizona “are challengeable” due to the state’s failure to verify the citizenship of voters over the last 20 years. Hobbs further admitted that the missing citizenship verification validates “theories about illegal voting in our elections.”

One legal expert with knowledge of the case told The Gateway Pundit that there are better odds that Mayes will be disbarred than that this case will lead to a conviction. However, the far-left Bar Association probably won't do anything to the leftist Attorney General.

The Gateway Pundit will continue to provide updates on Mayes' failing lawfare case.
