The Gateway Pundit received exclusive access to “The Teneo Digest” on Teneo Network‘s invite-only substack page.
We previously reported on the shocking photograph of Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer hanging out in somebody’s backyard with Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich.
This gathering took place at Teneo affiliate and Arizona State University law Professor Ilan Wurman‘s home. The Gateway Pundit previously reported on the Marxist indoctrination camp called ASU. It appears that another ASU Professor and Foundation for Defense of Democracies advisor, David Kilcullen is in attendance. Both are to the left of Mark Brnovich.
According to the Teneo webpage,
Teneo is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that educates, connects and equips a network of outstanding leaders working to develop practical solutions to pressing global issues. Through events and retreats with top business leaders and leading policy experts, Teneo provides opportunities for members to learn about and discuss both key issues facing our country and world as well as five pillar ideas: (1) limited, constitutional government; (2) individual liberty and free enterprise; (3) robust civic society; (4) a strong national defense; and (5) belief in a transcendent order, whether founded in tradition, philosophy, or theology.
Teneo takes no positions on legislation or candidates.
Teneo calls itself a Civic and Social Organization based in Austin, Texas, on its LinkedIn. It appears to be quite an exclusive group.
On their substack page, Teneo advertises and encourages members to apply for the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) Media Fellows Program.
News articles on The Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ website refer to the historic January 6 rally and march on our nation’s capital, “The Jan. 6 mob assault on the Congress and the stain on the image of American democracy… The Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of former President Trump”, and “The Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol insurrection“.
Another FDD article says, “Trump’s term in office will forever be defined by the terrible events of January 6. Nothing will change that.”
These RINO leftists are anti-election integrity.
As a matter of Fact, Never-Trumper Bill Kristol sits on the board of advisors for FDD. TGP reported that Kristol is leading an effort to stop election integrity efforts and cover up the fraudulent 2020 election with RINOs in Maricopa County.
Vocal never-Trumper Ben Shapiro is also part of this secretive group.
The Teneo Digest on November 20th contains a photo of a private backyard meeting between Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich and others. This could be a campaign stop, but a closer look at the bottom right of the image will show what appears to be the unmistakable clown hair of Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer.
There is an open criminal investigation into the stolen 2020 election and the 2020 elections officials. Or at least we think there is.
Although Stephen Richer was not the acting County Recorder until January 2021, the coverup is worse than the crime, and Richer was fully committed to covering it up.
Mark Brnovich is supposed to be investigating these people, not drinking beers and winning their votes!
The Gateway Pundit reported that Stephen Richer ran on exposing former Recorder Adrian Fontes’ “criminal” actions. Once elected, he told Maricopa County Recorder Steve Chucri that he does not trust Dominion enough to use it again in the next election. Chucri later resigned after TGP broke this damning news.
Richer has since fallen in step with the coverup scheme, and it is too late to turn back.
Is Attorney General Brnovich taking this investigation seriously?
Why is Brnovich hanging out with anti-election integrity Never-Trumper RINOs?!
After multiple attempts to reach the office and media contacts of Brnovich and Richer and multiple direct messages on Twitter, TGP correspondent Jordan Conradson tweeted at the two for comment on this backyard meetup.
Still no answers…

7. 🤝 THE LAST WORD
Lauren Spohn wrote about her visit to Lviv, Ukraine, last month in a newspaper edited by Tenean Joe Lindsley.
In it she writes:
“What, then, have American expats found in Lviv? In a word, rootedness. They’ve found connection to a people, a place, and a past – a village in a city. They’ve found a reason to bless the tie that binds.”
What exactly is this?
Why is Mark Brnovich hanging out with his perps?
We don’t know because they refuse to comment.
Arizona is watching their every move.
