described Alexander's public comments as an exaggeration of Fitchham's role
and discussed their interactions.
These associations centered on election challenges and a January 6 events.

No credible evidence appears in public reporting of associations
with a different individual named Ali Akbar in this political context.
So that's interesting about the Texas thing in it.
There's also a grabbed a bunch of the stuff off the red phone
and then we also have O-Sent channel.
It has like 30 to 40 posts, something like that.
I want to take a peek in there as well.
If anybody wants to come up and just talk about it,
especially if you dug it up or you were posting it,
please come up and just speak on it while I'm still pulling some things together.

Everybody's changing out their profiles today.
Oh, delicious.
That's on the overhead.
So the overhead there is already like a channel that has a lot of information in it.
If anybody wants to come up, read, talk about it,
I'm about to grab some coffee.
We can go over this, discuss openly, receipts, interactions.
If anybody ever seen this guy,
I am really curious about if all his movements and texts.
So if you've been at rallies or anything like that or meetings,
any kind of public gatherings, personally, please drop them down
and that way we can research on them.
Or we can have another silent disco space.
That's not until the 17th, Jake.
Even if you don't have any information on Mark,
if you do want to come up and express how you feel about this piece of shit with what he did
to our friend, I'd like to hear that too.
Florida Gal just posted that at Tori, very interesting that Patrick Bern has donated to
Mark Fitchham, the sitting Arizona Senator who threatened to assault Tori at the storm summit.
Huh.
Anybody want to make connections with the whole like alley,
Fitchham, maybe like the going back to Ohio, the other spaces,
at all kind of connects.
But most of the stuff was years and years ago.
That's posted on the red channel.
So do look it up.
The links below, just re-familiarize yourself with it.
It might bring up some memories that maybe you all forgot.
But this was a pretty big deal back then.
Welcome. I guess she's the only one that wants to talk.
Did you ever go to any rallies with him there?
Because I was at that Arizona rally.
The one where I ran into plements at the Trump rally.
The, uh, there was a, um, I didn't go to it, but my friend went to it.
And I remember her telling me that she saw all the there.
She doesn't know anything about any of this.
She doesn't listen to Tori, none of that.
But, um, I remember her taking, you know, pictures and she brought a sign
home because he was handing out just like signs that said stop the steel in like a maroon color.
She put it up in her window.
She put it up in her window.
Um, but I don't, I just know that he was speaking there.
He showed up.
Um, are you in the Arizona State Group?
No, not since 2021.
We got any, do we have any admins or anybody over there or anybody that's in the
Arizona State Group?
Because you know of, they could raise, raise in the original Arizona room.
Um,
I'm interested.
I'm interested to see if there was any digging on him back then.
Um, hmm.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, let me text Ray and see.
Oh, what's up, what's up?
Sorry, I was just reading through all the posts trying to re familiarize myself with the stuff
that's been so long, but he's still a piece of shit.
Obviously, uh, Kim, can you post that?
Um, some read that you read a minute ago?
Oh, that was on a rock.
And I refreshed the story.
I'll, I'll redo it, but I'll post it.
Yeah.
I'm reading another one right now.
Um, about it said who did Mark Finch,
Fitchham circle with into 2021?
Um, he reported connections and interactions that you include, Ali Alexander,
Fitchham coordinated closely with him on messages.
So I guess this, this one I can post, uh, including planning around January six.
I remember Tori specifically mentioning all this.
Very, very close to January six.
I remember her talking about him during that time, like big time.
But she also mentioned ghosts are two.
Um, that's why I asked when she was in the space that are she was giving us a night recap
of what he did at the thing.
And I had said what about ghosts are because she said those names together,
but she says that he's a good man.
So I'm going to leave that alone for now.
Um, text messages shows ongoing contact.
Ali Alexander publicly called Fitchham a great friend and a brother.
Credit in him with starting the Arizona stop to steal effort and said the movement grew
significantly after Fitchham's involvement.

Fitchham thanked Ali Alexander in tweets and discuss strategy with him.

Thank him publicly alongside Alexander and linked him to the Arizona audit protest efforts.
Rudy Giuliani and Trump orbit.
Fitchham organized hosted an unofficial multi-hour hearing in Phoenix.
That was the one where I'll never forget it because of this.
When Rudy Giuliani his hair died was like he was like sweating down his face.
Um, in late November 2020 was spillover effects into 2021 featuring, featuring Giuliani and
others promoting election fraud claims. He received a $6,000 payment from the Trump campaign via
his business entity labeled as recount legal consulting or related to security costs for the hearing.
He also had contact with figures like Christina Bob,
then OANN Trump affiliated attorney who helped arrange the Giuliani appearance and later reference
conversations with people, people such as Peter Navarro.
