For Star subscribers: Sen. Justine Wadsack came out fast in the Legislature, passing hot-button bills while sharing conspiracies and insults online. She's already facing a possible recall, though.
Tim Steller A March 8 incident encapsulated Sen. Justine Wadsack’s short, eventful time in the Legislature so far.
People are also reading… She told a big story, she got pushback from opponents, she flashed disdain at them, and she went on to win. For that day at least. “#J6 is a lie” she proclaimed on Twitter March 7. She was responding to Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s attempt at showing that the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol was not how it has been portrayed — an act by Trump supporters to stop the transfer of power.
Her combative engagement wins her fans among conservative Republicans. Dave Smith, the chair of the Pima County GOP told me, “I think she’s done an outstanding job.” He succeeded in helping create the district with a Republican advantage of 5 percentage points only to lose the primary to Wadsack. Democrats, of course, don’t appreciate the disdain that Wadsack sometimes treats them with. The episode with Ortiz certainly rankled. In the exchange, Ortiz was composed, but Wadsack lashed out at being questioned.
Wadsack’s Jan. 23 response: “Do not contact me. You are a opinion journalist who write hit pieces, but you don’t disclose your intent. Your past communications have been out of line. Please stop.”Wadsack’s contempt toward Democrats and critics is likely to be her Achilles heel. Already, Democrats in LD 17 are preparing a recall campaign against her.
