Lazy Lon Johnson steals MI-01 photos to doctor up his MI-01 credentials

March 21, 2016

Danger Fraud AlertDetroit resident and MI-01 candidate Lon Johnson is being very, very lazy.  To make it appear that he’s physically in the district where he is running for Congress, he’s been tweeting out photos of MI-01 sites.  But there’s a slight issue for Lazy Lonnie – he’s stealing the photos and trying to pass them off as his own.

For example – Lazy Lonnie’s tweet of Tahquamenon Falls is from Wikipedia.  And his tweet of the Mackinac Bridge is from the Michigan State Senate website.  But in Lazy Lonnie’s defense, maybe he was just too tired from shooting his flamboyant ice climbing tourism video last week to drive 300 miles from home just to send out some misleading tweets?

NRCC Comment:  “Lon Johnson is so desperate to hide his Detroit residency from the people of Northern Michigan that he is now tweeting out stock photos and playing them off as his own.  Johnson’s own spokesman said he lives in Detroit, so why doesn’t Johnson come clean about his carpetbagger status instead of insulting everyone’s intelligence?” –NRCC Spokesman Chris Pack
