Dan Lipinski for Congress – 3rd Congressional District of Illinois
https://lipinskiforcongress.com/

JNS.org – A previously unseen 2018 campaign advertisement for an Illinois Democrat currently running for the US House of Representatives features attacks on her opponent for his support of AIPAC and his stance against the BDS movement.

Marie Newman, who is running in a primary against incumbent Democratic Rep. Dan Lipinski in the state’s 3rd Congressional District, which leans Democratic, narrowly lost to Lipinski by less than 3 percentage points in the 2018 Democratic primary.

Also in the ad, Shadin Maali, a mother, community advocate and small-business owner, stated that Newman “doesn’t pander to special interest groups like AIPAC.” (Maali also happens to be Newman’s campaign chair.)

Chicago Newspapers Split on Democratic Primary in Illinois’ Third District By Alexandra DeSanctis

DEMOCRAT INCUMBENT DAN LIPINSKI (ILLINOIS District 3) SHOULD BE RE-ELECTED EVEN THOUGH HE VOTED FOR IMPEACHMENT
www.lipinskiforcongress.com

Next month, U.S. representative Dan Lipinski (D., Ill.) will face a progressive challenger, Marie Newman, in the Democratic primary in Illinois’ third congressional district, which encompasses a large section of Chicago’s southwestern suburbs. Newman attempted to unseat Lipinski last election cycle and came very close to doing so, falling behind by only about 2 percent, or 2,000 votes.

Newman’s campaign in 2018 was backed in large part by left-wing activist groups, which were frustrated primarily with Lipinski’s continual refusal to support legal abortion. Since taking over his father’s congressional seat in 2005, Lipinski has remained one of the few Democratic politicians who espouses pro-life views and votes according to them. Though his progressive opponents refer to Lipinski as a “conservative,” the truth is he’s plenty liberal — but he’s not a liberal in the modern social-justice–activism mold, focusing instead on the policies that matter to blue-collar, working-class voters in his district. And, most abhorrent to today’s Left, he simply won’t cave on abortion.

The last time Lipinski faced Newman, he received endorsements from both of Chicago’s newspapers, the Tribune and the Sun-Times. This cycle, he has retained the support of only one of them. “Seeking his ninth term, Lipinski has been in sync with the district for a long time,” the Chicago Tribune editorial board writes, noting the congressman’s concerns about the divisive effects of radical progressivism on the Democratic Party. Newman, on the other hand, supports Obamcare “but ultimately sees Medicare for All as the best option” and favors the ultra-expensive Green New Deal.

“We’re concerned that such massive government spending programs are unworkable and unaffordable,” the Tribune concludes. “Lipinski’s outlook, which includes participation in the House bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus, is both more moderate and realistic. Lipinski is endorsed.”

The Bottom Tier Disappears. Biden and Warren Collapse. Bernie, Pete, and Amy Thrive. By Jim Geraghty

https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/new-hampshire-primary-joe-biden-elizabeth-warren-collapse-bernie-sanders-pete-buttigieg-amy-klobuchar-thrive/#slide-1

After having no discernible results the night of the Iowa caucuses and unclear results in the following days, the voters of New Hampshire brought some needed clarity to the Democratic presidential primary.

They began by clearing out the detritus. The Granite State electorate demonstrated that Andrew Yang, as fun, easygoing, amiable, and thoughtful as he was, was not going to be a factor at all. The Yang Gang was impassioned, but an “extremely online” phenomenon — loud and seemingly numerous on social media, not so numerous in offline life. That having been said, Yang can fairly ask whether having Iowa and New Hampshire go first puts such candidates as him at a deep disadvantage.

Michael Bennet also departed the race, after telling Time magazine Saturday: “We can surprise a lot of people — and it’s not going to take much to surprise them.” No. Shush. You were always in denial about your odds of victory. The media are not being mean, presumptuous, or closed-minded when they say certain long-shot candidates have no shot, and we are under no obligation to play along with lawmakers who are psychologically delusional about how their campaigns are doing.

Deval Patrick also will depart the race Wednesday. The theme of his rally yesterday was, “it’s never too late.” Actually, it was.

A U.S. Senate candidate from Maine uses a guillotine for its logo By Andrea Widburg

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/02/a_us_senate_candidate_from_maine_uses_a_guillotine_for_its_logo.html

“Democrat Bre Kidman, who’s challenging Susan Collins, wants people to think of a revolution when they think about this non-binary person’s candidacy.”

When most people think of a guillotine, they think of rivers of blood flowing during the French Revolution and during Hitler’s ascendancy in Germany (when he guillotined around 16,500 people). Civilized countries do not decapitate people to gain political power. Nevertheless, Bre Kidman, an attorney who is challenging Senator Susan Collins for her Senate seat in Maine, has decided that a stylized image of a guillotine is the perfect logo for its campaign.

(Kidman claims not to be either male or female and adopts the pronouns “they or them.” This is consistent with Progressive demands that individuals who call themselves non-binary should be accorded plural pronouns. That, however, is a grammatical bridge too far. The English language has a perfectly good singular pronoun for things – and people – that are neither male nor female: “it.”)

Of course, Kidman contends that the guillotine is merely symbolic. It’s not a call for actual blood; it’s just a suggestion that, if Kidman and the Left generally do not get the change they demand, there might be blood:

“The guillotine is an image which calls to mind what people have done for revolution before,” said Kidman, an attorney who’s running for the seat held by Republican Sen. Susan Collins. “If we can find a better path to revolution than that we owe it to ourselves and our country.”

ELECTIONS ARE COMING:JAMES SIMPSON FOR CONGRESS CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRAT- MARYLAND DISTRICT 2

https://www.jimsimpsonforcongress.com/

 State Sen. James C. Simpson, a fiscally conservative Democrat from Charles County,  is considering running against Representative Steny H. Hoyer, D-Md.-5th.

Why I’m Running

I have always had a public spirit — a passion for how public policy can affect our lives. That public spirit has grown to grave concern as I watch our nation being torn apart by a political system that tosses aside the fabric of our Constitution and the rule of law.As a student and instructor of economics in the 1980s, I was fascinated by the morbid attraction so many people have for socialism. Socialism’s fatal flaws can easily be identified by any half-decent, first year economics student. In my wildest dreams, I never thought that socialism would be mainstream in American politics… but here we are. 

James Simpson is an economist, investigative journalist, businessman and author. His most recent book is The Red Green Axis: Refugees, Immigration and the Agenda to Erase America. His articles and research work have been published in Accuracy in Media, American Thinker, Breitbart, Capital Research Center, Center for Security Policy, Daily Caller, PJ Media, Washington Times, and elsewhere. Mr. Simpson is also featured in the documentaries The Enemies Within, AGENDA: Grinding America Down, AGENDA II: Masters of Deceit, and most recently, Sabotage, How the Islamists, Marxists and Their “Useful Idiots” Are Destroying America from Within.

A Closer Look At The Iraqi Immigrant Woman Challenging Rep. Ilhan Omar by Erielle Davidson

https://thefederalist.com/2020/01/23/a-closer-look-at-the-iraqi-immigrant-woman-challenging-rep-ilhan-omar/
Baghdad-born Dalia al-Aqidi says Rep. Illhan Omar ‘supports Islamists and enemies of America and Israel, and there are no exceptions.’

In 2004, the Chicago Tribune referred to her as “the most watched TV reporter nobody in America has seen,” and this turn-of-phrase seemed stunningly apt. Baghdad-born Dalia al-Aqidi was 36, and a fixture of Middle East media. In sharp contrast to programming on Qatar’s popular Al-Jazeera, Dalia was a leading voice on Alhurra, an American-sponsored television channel broadcasting in the Middle East and delivering a strongly pro-America message.

Al-Aqidi was the only Iraqi covering the 2004 presidential campaign within the traveling White House press corps, providing news on Washington to millions in the Arabic-speaking world. Fifteen years later, the famed Iraqi reporter is running for Congress against the darling of the left, also an immigrant from a Muslim-majority country, a woman named Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn.

Omar was catapulted to leftist fame after being elected to represent Minnesota’s Fifth District in the 2018 midterms and espousing radically left-wing policies. She eventually joined forces with three other socialist-leaning, freshman voices in the House, the anti-Trump foursome collectively being referred to as the “Squad.” But Omar will have competition in the coming election from al-Aqidi. 

ELECTIONS ARE COMING: SEAN PARNELL FOR CONGRESS (R-PA-DISTRICT 17)

https://www.seanforcongress.co/

Who  is Sean Parnell?

Army Ranger, combat infantryman with the elite 10th Mountain Division, and veteran of 485 days of fierce fighting along the Afghan-Pakistan border, Captain Sean Parnell’s unique leadership skills welded his platoon into one of the most fierce and effective American fighting units in modern military history. Repeatedly outnumbered and outgunned by a foe whose avowed purpose was to overrun his platoon, Sean’s “Outlaws” battled furiously in the most rugged terrain on the planet—the towering Hindu Kush Mountains. Eighty-five percent of his platoon received Purple Hearts for wounds incurred in battle, but his men gave far more than they received. Outlaw Platoon killed over 350 enemy fighters in some of the biggest firefights of the Afghan War. His platoon remains one of the most decorated Army units since 9-11.

Since leaving the Army, Sean has penned the New York Times best-selling book, Outlaw Platoon, which is the story of his platoon’s crucible of combat in Eastern Afghanistan. He is a regular guest on Fox News and has appeared on dozens of national TV and radio shows. He is a subject matter expert on Afghanistan, the insurgency we face there, leadership and how to use it to inspire and motivate men and women to achieve common objectives.
