Republicans Unite: Investigate Arizona State Bar
The Executive Guidance Committee (EGC) of the Maricopa County Republican Committee unanimously passed a resolution Tuesday calling for the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to “[i]mmediately commence an [i]nvestigation of the State Bar of Arizona [SBA].”
The resolution, which was enacted by nearly 100 members present, comes after Reverend Al Sharpton’s National Action Network (NAN), Phoenix Metro chapter, also urged the DOJ to investigate the SBA due to its targeting of conservative, minority, and other attorneys.
The document focused on the SBA’s disbarment of former Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas, who “was the only Maricopa County Attorney who has ever fully enforced the state’s laws against illegal immigration, resulting in illegal immigrants leaving the state in droves while he and Sheriff Arpaio were in office.” It said “the State Bar of Arizona was weaponized for this purpose against Mr. Thomas and his deputies.” Thomas was elected to office in 2004 and served until April of 2010.
The EGC noted that “the disbarment of Mr. Thomas and the destruction of the legal careers of his deputies violated their civil rights, greatly damaged the rule of law in Arizona, and still shocks the conscience of all fair-minded people.” The MCRC issued a similar resolution in 2011 condemning the SBA’s disciplinary action against Thomas.

Chester Burton "Chet" Atkins, Mister Guitar (1924)June 20, 2026
Atkins got his first guitar by making a trade with his brother, and it was arguably the best deal he ever made. Although he struggled with shyness and suffered from severe asthma—he had to sleep sitting up and often fell asleep still holding his guitar—he became an accomplished guitarist and went on to release several hit records, develop a signature line of guitars, and help create country music's "Nashville sound." What did "Mr. Guitar," as he came to be known, trade to get that first guitar?

West Virginia Day is a state holiday in West Virginia to celebrate its joining the Union in 1863 as the 35th state. The creation of the state was a result of the Civil War. The settlers of western Virginia defied the state's vote to secede from the Union, and on June 20 West Virginia formally entered the Union as an anti-slave state. The day is marked with ceremonies at the state capitol in Charleston and at the West Virginia Independence Hall in Wheeling. It was there that the conventions were held to declare West Virginia's independence from Virginia.

Black TeaJune 20, 2026
Excluding water, tea is the most widely consumed drink on the planet, drunk either hot or cold by half the world's population. The vast majority of tea sold in the West is black tea, made from fermented leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. Generally stronger in flavor and more caffeinated than the green and oolong varieties, black tea retains its flavor for several years and has long been an article of trade, serving as a form of currency into the 19th century in what countries?
