https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/15/politics ... index.html
John Fetterman, Pennsylvania lieutenant governor and Democratic US Senate candidate, announced Sunday that he had a stroke and went to the hospital on Friday, but said in a statement, "I'm feeling much better, and the doctors tell me I didn't suffer any cognitive damage. I'm well on my way to a full recovery."

Pennsylvania's primary is on Tuesday, and Fetterman is the favorite to win the Democratic Senate contest, with polls showing him holding a significant lead over Rep. Conor Lamb and state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta.
oh man.

I pray he is okay :pray: :pray: :pray:

Hope he is OK.

Very bad news for PA even if he is OK since the GOP will use this in attack ads and infinitum.

NEW: I believe I've found photos and video of GOP Senate candidate Kathy Barnette (
@Kathy4Truth
) marching alongside Proud Boys on their way to storm the Capitol on January 6th.

Barnette is wearing a gray knit hat with a gray jacket. I don't have her inside Capitol grounds yet.

She's just one of those from PA who were in DC that day. I think she organized a bus, as did Mastriano (running for governor), and Teddy Daniels, running for Lt. governor.

Here's a link to PA's elections, senate and gov. Oz is barely in 2nd, with Barnette right on his ass.

As of this post, McCormick is in the lead by about 5.6K but only 4% in.

Oz is still in 2nd place but Mastriano just took the lead in the guv race, so Oz could still pull it off.

Well, the only good thing about Mastriano winning is that DFO's anointed one, Oz, will have lost.

Mastriano is crazy nasty.

Tough to think of a better outcome to drive PA MAGA turnout down in Nov than to have Mehmet Oz win a closely contested election with mail-in ballots after election day. Rigged!

I've voted for Fetterman in every election I could and will vote for him in November. And he probably is as close as you can come in this country to a real Socialist. So what's the problem? :shrug:

https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/19/politics ... index.html
Ex-President Donald Trump is injecting his democracy-damaging fraud claims into a new election cycle, urging his friend Mehmet Oz to simply declare he won a too-close-to-call race for the Republican Senate nomination in Pennsylvania – a key state in Trump’s desperate bid to steal the 2020 election.

The cliffhanger contest between Oz and David McCormick, another claimant to Trump’s legacy, is the marquee race from Tuesday’s round of primaries – and carries calamitous echoes of 2020 election controversy and ill omens for 2024.

As does the runaway victor in the commonwealth’s GOP gubernatorial primary – state Sen. Doug Mastriano, who ran a campaign rooted in Trump’s falsehoods about the last presidential election being stolen and who could oversee the 2024 White House race in the state if he wins in November.

In a state that could be pivotal to control of the US Senate, top Republicans are raising concerns that Mastriano could drag the party’s Senate nominee down, while Democratic nominee Josh Shapiro is already shaping the race by warning the state could fall into the clutches of a dangerous extremist.

It’s Gab. Which is the most toxic social media around, worse than Telegram imo. Which is a feat.

Gab? He does not trust his Truth?

PS. while continenral France has the numbers quick the numbers from the overseas territories tend to come in later. The small numbers have little effect on the final outcome.

Truth is frankly unpleasant to navigate. And his feed there is full of stupid "retruths" of dumb stuff, much of which is pictures of him muscle bound as the "maga king." Which is annoying to wade through. His Gab sticks just to his actual statements, so you don't have to dig through other people's trash he is repeating. Interestingly enough though, Truth has a pretty heavy hand as far as censorship and completely crazy assed shit there gets removed. Unlike Gab.
