'Erroneous' Fox News report claimed Arizona gov 'mysteriously disappeared.' She was in DC for a meeting

On Thursday, September 28, Fox News reported that Arizona Treasurer Kimberly Yee would be serving as acting governor because of the "mysterious disappearance of Gov. Katie Hobbs."

But according to Arizona Central, Fox News' report — which had been headlined "Arizona governor mysteriously steps down for one day" — was "erroneous." And there was no "mysterious disappearance."

Hobbs, Arizona Central reports, was in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, September 27 "for a meeting about border issues with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas following a week-long visit to Taiwan, an important Arizona trade ally."

Arizona Central notes that Hobbs "flew back to Arizona" on September 28 to "meet with President Joe Biden."

That day in Arizona, Biden was joined by GOP activist Cindy McCain — the late conservative Sen. John McCain's widow — before giving a speech about the threat U.S. democracy is facing from former President Donald Trump and others in the far-right MAGA movement. Biden's tone was not anti-conservative; he honored Sen. McCain and fondly recalled working with him during their decades in the U.S. Senate. And Biden was careful to draw a distinction between traditional conservatives and far-right "MAGA Republicans."
