NRCC Weekly Rundown: DCCC chicanery screws vulnerable Dems

January 31, 2020

Here’s this week’s edition of the NRCC Weekly Rundown:

(National) In case you missed it, vulnerable House Democrats are lashing out at the DCCC for leaving them out to dry following their disastrous votes to remove President Trump from office. According to POLITICO, Reps. Joe Cunningham and Anthony Brindisi, “are spending precious resources on TV ads to defend themselves.” Yikes! Not a good sign for November…

(National) In a shocking move, 86 House Democrats voted AGAINST a bipartisan bill to extend a ban on fentanyl this week, which kills over 32,000 Americans a year. Apparently, these 86 Democrats opposed the legislation because it was too tough on drug dealers and would “send more people to prison.” I guess drug dealers and deadly terrorists are two groups House Democrats refuse to get tough on…

(National) Thanks to Cheri Bustos’ meddling, incumbents Henry Cuellar, Tom O’Halleran and Dan Lipinski are in a fight for their political careers. De facto Speaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez released another eye-popping round of fundraising, and due to the DCCC’s blacklisting of progressive candidates, AOC has promised to ensure the progressive challengers taking on her Democrat colleagues will have the money they need to win. The NRCC’s excited to sit back and watch the socialist House Democrats destroy each other in expensive primary races to the left!

(AK-AL) The DCCC is desperately pushing retread recruitment fail Alyse Galvin as a real candidate in Alaska. Despite outraising Don Young in 2018 – a banner year for Democrats – Galvin still lost to Young by SEVEN points. Galvin won’t fare any better in 2020 with President Trump at the top of the ticket considering he won Alaska by 14.7 percent! How embarrassing.

(CA-25) Christy Smith wants you to know her campaign for Congress doesn’t accept corporate PAC money. But, as Christy explained on Twitter this week, she’s perfectly fine taking corporate PAC and lobbyist money when running for State Assembly because it’s a state race NOT a federal race. What a lame excuse, and what a hypocrite!

(FL-16) Margaret Good’s campaign is failing miserably with a new fundraising email showing her begging campaign staff for money. This after Good was outraised last quarter, her top donor jumped ship, and a poll showed her losing badly. No wonder the press thinks she should drop out… 

(GA-06) Lyin’ Lucy McBath just can’t stop lying to Georgians! She recently decried dark money and Citizens United, butconveniently left out that she worked for Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund, a 501(c)4 dark money group that spent over a million dollars on her behalf. REMINDER: This isn’t the first time Lucy has lied about her dark money ties. The AJC noted McBath lied repeatedly during a debate, claiming the fund was not a dark money group.

(IA-01, IA-03) Democrat Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller is preparing to let serial child molester Joseph Matthew Smith (a man who molested as many as 15 victims ranging from 1 to 13 years of age) go free because Smith now identifies as a woman. It might be worth asking Abby Finkenauer and Cindy Axne their thoughts on the case considering they both favor legislation that allowed the placement of biological men in women’s prisons if they identify as such. Will Finkenauer and Axne side with their fellow Democrats or with the children Miller is about to let a serial sex offender prey on?

(IL-06) This week, Sean Casten voted AGAINST a bipartisan measure to extend a federal ban on fentanyl – a synthetic opioid that in one year killed over 32,000 Americans. His reason? The bill was apparently too tough on drug dealers. In Illinois, fentanyl has taken 1,300 lives. In Cook County alone, 202 lives were lost to fentanyl. But Sean Casten is more worried about…drug dealers.

(IL-14) Fake Nurse Lauren Underwood alsovoted AGAINST the bipartisan bill extending a federal ban on fentanyl because it was too tough on drug dealers. Nationally, death rates from these drugs have increased by 1,125% between 2011 and 2017 and in Illinois, 1,300 families have lost a loved one to fentanyl. The Fake Nurse feigns outrage over the opioid crisis, but her concern is as fake as her nursing career! She’d rather protect drug dealers than Illinois families.

(MI-06) Socialist Jon Hoadley is inexplicably touting his endorsement from the socialist Progressive Change Campaign Committee. Hoadley is betting his support for socialist policies like the Green New Deal, eliminating private insurance and impeachment will lead him to victory in a district President Trump won by 9 points. Good luck with that, Jon!

(MN-02) As states across the country legalize abortion up until the moment of birth, abortion extremist Angie Craig claimed the opposite, saying “there is no such thing as an abortion up until birth.” Click HERE to see just how well Angie’s lies went over with her constituents.

(MN-07) The ol’ retirement speculation machine is spinning again after Cranky Collin Peterson reportedly raised a mere $157,000 in the last quarter of 2019. Peterson, who chairs the House Agriculture Committee, was also a no show at the White House signing ceremony of the USMCA this week. Obviously Cranky Collin thinks he’s too good to represent Minnesota farmers. Maybe it’s time for him to pack his things and go.

(NV-04) You can’t see it, smell it or taste it. It is 20 times to 40 times more potent than heroin, and 100 times more potent than morphine. Ingesting even the smallest amount can be enough to kill the average adult. What substance am I talking about? Fentanyl. And this week Steven Horford joined his socialist colleagues in voting AGAINST a bipartisan measure banning it. The reason? The legislation was too tough on drug dealers. I wonder if the families of Nevadans who lost loved ones to fentanyl see it the same way, Steven. 

(NY-02) Now that national Democrats are proudly touting Jackie Gordon as their savior in NY-02, it’s time she let Long Island voters know where she stands on the issues that matter. Does she agree with New York’s disastrous bail reform policy that allows dangerous criminals, drug dealers and drunk drivers back on the streets? What about New York’s law allowing illegal immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses? We look forward to hearing where you stand, Jackie!

(NY-24) Dana Balter, Francis Conole and Roger Misso have refused to speak out on New York Dems’ disastrous bail reform policy that’s putting dangerous criminals, drug dealers and drunk drivers back on the streets. Do Balter, Conole and Misso believe these violent criminals belong behind bars? Or will they continue to dodge the question and whine about subject lines of NRCC press releases? Central New York residents deserve to know if these [CENSORED] Democrats support this disastrous bail policy that is putting communities at risk.

(NY-27) Last night Western New York Democrats endorsed Socialist Loser* Nate McMurray in the race for New York’s 27th Congressional District. It’s important to note McMurray is a proud supporter of his party’s radical socialist agenda, including:

REMINDER: NY-27 is an R+11 district that President Trump won handily in 2016. McMurray’s deranged if he thinks he won’t be rejected by Western New York voters again.

(PA-01) At a recent Democrat forum, Christina Finello admitted she’s “been called a progressive on a lot of issues.” But what issues exactly? PA-01 voters deserve to know: Does Finello support the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, free college and the rest of the Democrats’ socialist agenda? It’s time to come clean! And while you’re at it, Christina, can you explain why you touted an endorsement from Fred Weiss, who implied Levittown residents aren’t “sensible” and Upper Bucks residents aren’t “smart”?

(PA-17) Over the weekend, Conor Lamb took issue with voters questioning his absolute commitment to Speaker Nancy Pelosi, but the numbers don’t lie! In Washington, Lamb has voted with Pelosi 98% of the time, backing her baseless efforts to remove President Trump from office along with the rest of the Democrats’ socialist, job-killing agenda. And what’s Lamb’s reward for selling out PA-17 voters? A high-dollar fundraiser headlined by Pelosi to line his campaign coffers, of course!

(SC-01) On the campaign trail, Joe Cunningham hated lobbyists (HERE, HERE, and HERE). But, as soon as he got to the swamp, Joe hired THREE DC lobbyists, including his Chief of Staff. Now it turns out Cunningham promoted one of those DC lobbyists to Deputy Chief of Staff! Odd way of showing you despise lobbyists, Joe.

(Texas) National Democrats went all in on Texas’ HD-28, an open seat located in the fastest growing sections of TX-22. And boy did they get embarrassed! Despite campaign stops by Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Mike Bloomberg and Beto O’Rourke while lighting piles of cash on fire, the Democrat candidate lost HD-28 by 16 points. The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee even went so far as to call the race “a key bellwether for the 2020 elections in the newly-minted swing state.” So, next time the DCCC tries to sell you on their prospects in solidly Republican districts in the Lone Star State, remember the HD-28 debacle.

(TX-07) At a town hall last weekend Lizzie Fletcher attempted to give the illusion of being responsive to constituents. But, when voters arrived, they were shocked to discover a tightly choreographed event where Fletcher’s staff hand-picked the questions she would answer.At the end of the town hall one man even shouted, “Why didn’t the invitation indicate that this was a Democrats-only meeting? I didn’t hear from any Republicans. My question wasn’t available!” Click HERE to read the full story from The Texan.

(TX-24) Democrats in Washington are growing concerned about the prospect of nominating disgraced war profiteer Kim Olson in TX-24. So instead, they’ve decided to rally around lefty local school board member, Candace Valenzuela. Valenzuela’s latest backer is Elizabeth Warren, who shares Valenzuela’s enthusiasm for gun bans, taxpayer-funded abortion and destroying oil and gas jobs. Valenzuela has also been endorsed by Emily’s List and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. While these endorsements may go a long way in a Democrat primary, they’ll be a kiss of death in November!

(TX-28) I’m just going to leave this right here: Henry Cuellar is screwed.

(UT-04) Ben McAdams just endorsed billionaire Michael Bloomberg. The same Michael Bloomberg who just donated $10 million to House Majority Forward, a dark money group that’s promised to spend millions in Utah in 2020. In fact, House Majority Forward has already spent $326,091 this cycle propping up McAdams with TV ads. Utahns deserve better than a corrupt congressman who will sell his endorsement to the highest bidder

(Virginia) This weekend marks the beginning of Black History month and the 1-year anniversary of Ralph Northam’s blackface scandal. But:

  • Northam is still in office.
  • AG Mark Herring, who also wore blackface is still in office.
  • Alleged serial rapist LG Justin Fairfax is still around too.
  • And Elaine Luria and Abigail Spanberger believe Fairfax is a serial rapist but still won’t return his donations.

Happy Anniversary!

(VA-10) Before Jennifer Wexton came to Washington she mourned those who lost their lives to drug addiction. But this week she forgot all about that and voted AGAINST a bipartisan measure banning fentanyl, a synthetic opioid more than 20 times more potent than heroin. Liberals, like Wexton, say the legislation was too tough on drug dealers. Clearly Washington has changed Jennifer Wexton!

(WA-03) It’s hard to believe Carolyn Long is worried about our country’s deficit when she supports Medicare for All. Especially since Long claims she supports tax cuts, too! Experts have found a deficit-neutral Medicare for All plan would result in 72% of American families paying higher taxes. So, what’s Long’s plan to lower the deficit while supporting Medicare for All WITHOUT raising taxes? HINT: She doesn’t have a plan. She’s a desperate retread candidate willing to say anything to get elected.


News & Notes


Impeachment already becoming political weapon in 2020 congressional races

Despite having members in 31 congressional districts that President Trump carried in 2016, House Democrats showed surprising party unity in the December vote to impeach him — but the saga that has gripped Washington could carry a big political risk come November.

On the Senate side, moderate GOP senators essentially face the prospect of political backlash no matter what they do. But on the House side, Republicans already are gearing up to use impeachment as a cudgel against the swing-district Democrats who supported it.

For instance, Democratic Rep. Matt Cartwright is in Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District, which Trump carried by 53-44 percent in 2016. After Cartwright voted for both articles of impeachment, the Cook Political Report moved his seat from “lean Democrat” to a “toss-up.”

Where the Democratic majority could face real challenges is in the dozen districts where Trump won an actual majority of votes in a year when third-party candidates pulled in more than 1 percent of the vote — and about a half-dozen districts where he won by, or nearly by, double digits.

“Democrats hold more seats in Republican areas than vice versa. Impeachment is unpopular in battleground districts,” Michael McAdams, the national press secretary for the National Republican Congressional Committee, told Fox News. READ.



Record-Shattering Numbers Of Republican Women Are Running For Office Under Trump: ‘Our Voices Are Not Being Heard’

Record-shattering numbers of Republican women are running for office under President Donald Trump, saying that they believe their voices are not being represented and that they must stand up to Democratic socialism.

The number of Republican women who have filed for 2020 “shatters all previous records,” National Republican Congressional Committee communications director Chris Pack told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Two hundred women, 164 minorities, and 214 veterans have filed to run as Republicans in 2020 House races – and Pack says they expect more to file in states where filing is still open.

“Chairman Tom Emmer has placed a strong emphasis on recruiting a diverse slate of candidates that reflects the Republican Party at the grassroots level,” Pack explained. “These candidates see the extreme socialist agenda of the Democrat Party and are stepping up to the plate to do something about it.” READ.
