A review of dozens of tax and real estate records concerning Rep. James Comer (R-KY) and his “legitimate” shell company turns up more and more questions—like about when it got shut down (twice) by the state.

This is who the NY GOP picked to run for George Santos’s seat. 😆😬
“At the height of the campaign for Long Island’s 3rd Congressional District, Republican Mazi Melesa Pilip will be dealing with a subpoena in a lawsuit against her husband over alleged unpaid rent. Before her election to the Nassau County Legislature, Pilip worked as the operations manager for her husband’s medical practice, and as Politico New York previously reported, the medical practice was sued by its landlord in 2020 for $70,000 in back rent and an additional $500,000 to cover the rest of the lease. Although Pilip was not named as a party in the lawsuit, court documents show that on Dec. 19 – just days after receiving the Republican nomination for the special election – she received a subpoena to give a deposition in the case. She’s required to provide that testimony to attorneys for the landlord on Jan. 22.” https://www.cityandstateny.com/politics/2024/01/mazi-melesa-pilip-subpoenaed-testify-rent-lawsuit-over-husbands-business/393263/ |
Michigan State House Republican Leader Rep. Matt Hall “was accused in 2019 of domestic assault and interfering in a 911 call.”
According to police reports, Matt Hall and his then-girlfriend were driving to Indiana to bet on sports when he realized he had left his money behind and became angry. “He was driving fast and scaring her” the police report states as he returned home to find his bankroll. When his behavior escalated, the woman took out her phone. The police report says, “He told her to stop recording him and then he forcefully grabbed her phone out of her hand... He used enough force to break the screen... He then told her she was not going to record him.” This is not the first time police investigated Hall for violent or threatening behavior. Last September, American Journal News revealed that Hall made death threats and racist remarks to another student as an undergraduate. Matt Hall dismissed this incident as something he did when he was young and naive. But this 2019 police report shows instead that this is a pattern of concerning behavior that continued into his time as a state legislator. As former MIGOP Executive Director Jeff Timmer told the Daily Beast “This happened when this guy was in the Legislature. It’s recent, and it shows a problem with judgment and anger and behavior that I think is definitely something that is legitimate to be examined." https://www.thedailybeast.com/maga-michigan-lawmaker-matt-hall-was-investigated-by-police-for-domestic-violence https://americanjournalnews.com/matt-hall-michigan-death-threats-gun-safety-laws/ |
Mark Robinson, the Republican frontrunner to be North Carolina’s next governor, used campaign donations to pay off personal debt, among other alleged violations of campaign finance law.

He’s even faced eviction from his home, after he failed to make payments. https://www.wral.com/story/robinson-s-financial-woes-become-central-to-gop-primary-will-nc-voters-care/21001862/ |

Pilip also owes between $100,000 and $250,000 to the IRS. https://disclosures-clerk.house.gov/public_disc/financial-pdfs/2023/10056565.pdf |
Depressed. The GOP just keeps churning along. |
He also made his girlfriend, now wife, have an abortion. Sounds like NC shouldn't hand their state budget to this loser. He's terrible with money. |
Article about anti-abortion Mark Robinson and the abortion he caused. Republicans are hypocrites.
