Thank the Maricopa County attorney for not being a MAGA Republican

Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell will not prosecute two Phoenix police officers who shot and killed a man who was hurling rocks at them.

Arizona Republicans should pay heed to what happened this week at the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.

Rachel Mitchell, the Republican elected to the job in 2022, announced she would not prosecute two Phoenix police officers who shot and killed a man who was hurling rocks at a patrol car and later at them.

Mitchell was in charge of the case because she did not run for office as a MAGA Republican.

She did not kiss the Trump ring. She did not climb into the Stop-the-Steal barrel and ride it over Fantasy Falls to crushing defeat, as did so many other Arizona Republicans.
