Kari Lake's Furious Reaction On Twitter To Her Election Loss Is An Instant Self-Own

Kari Lake was defeated by Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs—and she's not taking it well.

Kari Lake—a QAnon adherent and election denier who was the Republican nominee in Arizona's gubernatorial race—is not taking her election loss well, and a recent tweet she wrote is only adding to her troubles.

News outlets reported this week that Lake officially lost the gubernatorial race to Katie Hobbs, the Arizona Secretary of State whom Lake threatened with imprisonment on baseless and unspecified allegations of criminality related to the 2020 election.


Shortly after the election was called, a bitter Lake issued the following tweet:

"Arizonans know BS when they see it."

You can see the tweet below.

The tweet is ironic given that the results show that Arizonans had had enough of Lake and her own brand of BS, which made Arizona a hotbed for election fraud conspiracies, many of them furthered by Lake herself.

Lake's loss was yet another sign that those who've backed former Republican President Donald Trump's "Big Lie" that the 2020 general election was stolen were being repudiated at the ballot box.

The overwhelming majority of Trump's chosen candidates failed to make traction on Election Night, which did not result in the "red wave" Republican legislators and pollsters had counted on and were seen as a referendum on how much sway Trump and his rhetoric still have over the American electorate.

Lake and her supporters, for their part, alleged wrongdoing right to the bitter end, even going so far as to demand the military step in and redo what they alleged is a "false" election as she continued to fall behind Hobbs.

But Hobbs prevaled and as far as Twitter users were concerned, Lake's tweet was an instant self-own.



Although Lake continued to attack the electoral process, calling Arizona’s elections system a “laughingstock” and accusing Arizona's election officials of intentionally slowing down the process of tallying votes, she was shut down by Maricopa County's head of elections, who called her claims "offensive."

According to The New York Times, Lake is currently weighing whether to concede or launch a legal challenge, which has "set off a high-stakes tug of war within the Republican Party," which is currently torn between Trumpist election deniers and established leaders who have urged her to accept her loss.

MAGA Throws Unhinged Tantrum After Trump Doesn't Win Nobel Peace Prize—But There's One Major Issue

President Donald Trump's supporters are crying foul after he lost the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize while overlooking the simple fact that the early deadline for submission meant Trump was barely eligible for the award in the first place.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the prize to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado “for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.”

Jesse Watters' Fox News Cohosts Call Out His 'Creepy' Rant About 'High-Value Man' Stephen Miller

Fox News personality Jesse Watters weirded out his own co-hosts after he claimed that New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez secretly wants to sleep with White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller after she "short-shamed" him.

In an Instagram livestream earlier this week, Ocasio-Cortez said “one of the best ways that you can dismantle a movement of insecure men is by making fun of them." She called Miller "a clown" and suggested he—the architect of President Donald Trump's immigration policies—takes out his anger on others because he's "like, 4 feet 10 inches."

Gavin Newsom Hilariously Trolls Trump For Struggling To Stay Awake During Antifa Roundtable

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked President Donald Trump for appearing to fall asleep during a White House roundtable about Antifa, which the administration recently designated a "domestic terror organization" even though it's not an organization at all.

Antifa is a loose network of anti-fascist activists with no central structure, no funding, no membership roster, and no offices or leadership hierarchy for prosecutors to target.

Remote Worker Speaks Out After Job Uses 'Dystopian' Software To Track His Productivity

There are a few vital truths to every office-based job. First, there are going to be "busy work" moments, from meetings to admin tasks to minor side-quest-style projects that add to the company in some small way but otherwise feel like a waste of time.

Second, as human beings, we all need breaks to restore our mental focus, so a person who occasionally scrolls through their personal email, sends a few texts to a friend, or even scrolls Instagram for a few minutes, will likely be more productive than those who attempt to lock in and do nothing but their job throughout their entire shift.
