When Political Accountability Dies, Who’s Really Steering the Ship—and Why It Should Scare You More Than Your Worst Workout Nightmare

So, here we are again—watching the political circus unfold like it’s the latest viral workout craze, except way less inspiring and way more alarming. On Tuesday night, Andy Biggs snagged the Republican nod for Arizona governor, crushing David Schweikert in a race that apparently needed no drama—though knowing Biggs, drama’s kind of his default setting. Now, here’s a thought to chew on: how does a guy so deeply tangled up in the January 6 saga—yes, the one with all the “Stop the Steal” shenanigans and whispered pardon requests—slide right into the spotlight without so much as a sweat on his brow? It’s like prepping for a marathon, stumbling multiple times, then somehow getting handed the gold medal anyway. Accountability? Seems it’s the one thing that’s been benched in this political gym. And with conspiracies swirling thicker than a midday smoothie, well, let’s just say the stakes have never felt stranger—or more dangerously unfiltered. Ready to dive deeper and sweat out the details?

On Tuesday night, Representative Andy Biggs won the Republican nomination for governor of Arizona, easily defeating Representative David Schweikert, about whom I know nothing and now, alas, I have no need to know anything.

Here is something someone once said about Congressman Biggs: “Mr. Biggs did.”

That was former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, talking in a video testimony with members of the January 6 special committee regarding members of Congress who inquired about presidential pardons for their activities during the insurrection. Biggs has denied asking for the pardon, but he was a leader in the congressional move not to certify Joe Biden’s election in 2020. There was testimony that Biggs was involved in planning the “Stop the Steal” movement that included farcical plans to produce fake slates of “alternative electors” in crucial states.

Now Andy Biggs is even money to be the next governor of Arizona.

It is altogether remarkable how little accountability has been parceled out for an attempt to overthrow the government. The shock troops all got a blanket pardon. There have been passing few politicians who have paid any price at the polls; Matt Gaetz would still be in the House if the president hadn’t nominated him for attorney general. Back when we were pretty sure he was alive, Mitch McConnell could’ve ended the president’s political career if he’d only allowed his caucus to vote for the second impeachment resolution, which was centered on the insurrection.

Now we’ve got a congressional investigation into January 6 based on a fantastical theory that, somehow, the FBI was behind it with the help of Antifa. And we have conservatives tossing around the word insurrection in relation to their own fantasies about how the Democratic party “imported” millions of foreigners to vote for Biden.

We are in the hands of the madmen.
