GOP’s 'Election Integrity' Lawyer Says U.S. Needs 'Cleansing'

A top election lawyer for the Republican Party said on a podcast Tuesday that she’s hoping for a “cleansing in our nation” and that “we can clean out the filth.” 

“I think there’s a lot of weird, weird things going on behind the scenes that we probably can’t see,” said Christina Bobb, a former right-wing media personality who is now the Republican National Convention’s senior counsel for “election integrity.”

“I hope they all break the surface so that we just get this cleansing in our nation and we can clean out the filth.” 

The comments on the “Steak for Breakfast” podcast, which were first flagged by liberal watchdog group Media Matters, were in line with an increasingly fascistic tone from the Trump campaign and Republican Party in general. Former president and GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump, for example, has said immigrants are bringing “bad genes” into the United States and “poisoning the blood” of the country — echoing Adolf Hitler’s rhetoric — and has called for the mass deportation of millions of people. Trump also recently said he expects a “problem” on Election Day from the “enemy from within.” 

Bobb’s remarks came during a longer comment in which she said the left was “evil” and “demonic”, and accused liberals of wanting to “normalize pedophilia” and protect “pedophile rights” because of “all of the weird transgender stuff.” 

She began talking about Sean “Diddy” Combs — who last month was indicted on sex trafficking and other charges — and Jeffrey Epstein, who died in jail after being charged with sex trafficking and other charges himself. Bobb accused Democrats of “protecting” documents related to Combs and Epstein, and said celebrities who wanted to show they weren’t pedophiles could demonstrate that by calling themselves conservatives. (Alex Acosta, the federal prosecutor who gave Epstein an immunity deal in 2007, protecting him from federal prosecution, later became Trump’s labor secretary.)

At that point, Bobb made her comment about “cleansing” the nation. 

Earlier during the show, she also said she believed Trump would win the election, and that Democrats would try to create “turmoil and chaos” after his victory. 

“Americans really need to be prepared to stand their ground and not give up any ground to the fact that no, we just won this election outright. Just because you couldn’t get enough people to cheat on your behalf, you can’t steal our victory,” Bobb said. 

Bobb has a long history in the MAGA movement. She was a key player in the 2020 attempt to overturn President Joe Biden’s electoral victory, and during the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol, she pressured then-Vice President Mike Pence to hand the election results “back to the legislators.” As Trump’s personal lawyer, she signed a document claiming that all classified material at Mar-a-Lago had been returned to the government — which was untrue. 

She also appeared on the white nationalist Stew Peters’ show last year. At one point, Peters said to her, “You’re a lawyer. You know that for treason, one of the, you know, potential punishments for that is death. Are we ever going to see any trials for these people that, you know, these traitors that have stolen our country?”

“I certainly hope we do,” Bobb replied.

After she was named the RNC “election integrity” counsel, Bobb was criminally charged in Arizona in relation to the Trump campaign’s 2020 efforts to overturn the election results there. Separately, she’s a defendant in a defamation suit from Dominion, the voting machine manufacturer.
