KARI LAKE (ARIZONA REPUBLICAN GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE): The news is propaganda. They're putting out what they want people to hear.

...

LAKE: We're looking forward to tonight. We're going to have our victory speech in Scottsdale and we are going to move on to take down Katie Hobbs and her plan to destroy Arizona and her socialist plan. We're not going to allow that in Arizona. We're not going to turn Arizona into California. We are going to keep what makes us uniquely wild west here in Arizona and I'm just so thrilled to be here with the people of this state in this fight.

STEVE BANNON (HOST): Girl of the golden west, Kari Lake. Kari, thank you very much. Honored to have you on here.

...

LAKE: And thank you, Steve. Thanks for your coverage. Could not have done this without you because these fake news organizations, they don't want to cover the truth, you do.

BANNON: Kari Lake, you're a fighter. From day one. The great Kari Lake and the great state of Arizona.
