Allies of Turning Point USA blocked two people with sexual misconduct allegations against a Trump-backed Arizona congressional candidate from speaking at a Republican district meeting. Turning Point USA allies helped kill a motion to let the pair speak at the July 7 meeting of Legislative District 15 in the East Valley. The report said that Arizona state Sen. Jake Hoffman (R-AZ), a former Turning Point USA spokesperson, helped lead the effort to shut down discussion at the meeting. Precinct committee member Melinda Yarbro, who had pushed to give Stannard and Hilsabeck time to speak, said Turning Point USA has reshaped how the district operates. The Arizona Republican primary is scheduled for July 21.
