Andy Martin for U S Senator/New Hampshire: July 2020

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin welcomes Senator Tom Cotton to New Hampshire with a brief synopsis of the state’s political status. Andy is New Hampshire’s leading political reformer and corruption fighter

Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin welcomes Senator Tom Cotton to New Hampshire Friday and gives the senator a bird’s eye view of the state. “The Hillsborough County Republican Committee did a great job in bringing the senator to New Hampshire,” says Andy. “Cotton is a bright star in our Republican future. Republicans need to work constantly to broaden our base. We face the proverbial ‘existential’ challenges of Chinese Communist Party diseases as well as criminality. The latest disclosures about NBA torture camps being run in China by American NBA officials are scary, a disgrace to pro basketball. China is the Nazi Germany of the 2020’s. If eternal vigilance is the price of freedom, I feel better knowing Tom Cotton is in the U. S. Senate, where I hope to join him.”

Sen. Tom Cotton

U. S. Senate

Washington, DC 20510

Dear Tom:

I want to be among the many who will welcome you to New Hampshire on Friday. The Hillsborough County Republicans are to be congratulated for bringing you to Nashua.

As I was writing this letter you popped up on Fox News exposing the so-called “1619 Project” boondoggle of the New York Times. That the trashy misrepresentation of our history, 1619, won a Pulitzer Prize shows how deeply our nation has been degraded. No tax dollars for the 1619 Project!

New Hampshire is evenly balanced between Republicans, Democrats and independents. In my opinion, the state is now trending Democratic although not everyone agrees with me. The Republican Party is a work in progress. I try especially hard to encourage and motivate Young Republicans to run for office.

Over the past decade I have worked to fight corruption and incompetence in the state GOP. I opposed the selection of the notorious Jennifer Horn as state chairman, but no one listened. Now her name is always associated with “former Republican Party Chairman.” Uggh. I was a prophet without honor in my own party. But Horn is consistent at least. She and her band of pirates who formed the Lincoln Project are as corrupt and malignant as she was in New Hampshire, where she destroyed the Republican Party. I predicted in 2011 she was a Democrat; her endorsement of Joe Biden comes as no surprise.

Nevertheless, New Hampshire is generally a sensible place. We have low taxes and limited government, although the D’s are always pressuring for more taxes and more government.

Because of your principled conservative stands you are one of my heroes in the Senate. But New Hampshire and Arkansas need to work hard to expand our political horizons to a national audience.

I hope you will decide soon enough to become part of the national conversation.

Politics, like warfare, is a pretty brutal business. Even as we strive to reelect our president, we are looking ahead to 2024.

Be brave. Be Bold.

Only a few of our fellow Republicans will be able to make it into the Hillsborough Dinner (sold out). I will be at the earlier reception. I know I speak confidently on behalf of almost all Republicans in joining as one voice to extend a heartfelt welcome as you visit New Hampshire.

Sincerely,

Andy

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin has asked Senator Mitch McConnell to support renewal of the full $600 Coronavirus unemployment benefit. Andy says in the long run federal and state governments will save more money by avoiding the social pathologies of unemployment than they will by reducing the benefit

Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin has asked Senator Mitch McConnell to renew the full emergency unemployment benefit. “If Republicans diddle around with 20-30 million people who have lost jobs through no fault of their own, the Republican Party will be decimated in November,” Andy says. “But good politics is also good government. The social costs of cutting off assistance to innocent victims of Chinese Communist treachery will dilute the rest of the GOP message from now to November. I still remember the trauma my brother and I felt when we were little boys and our mom lost her job. We were dependent on her unemployment check. We worried constantly about enough food, money for rent, gasoline. The injury of Coronavirus job losses is emotional and familial as well as financial. Under normal conditions I would be against expanding the deficit and national debt. But in an emergency, you take care of the American people first. Like, ‘America First.’ Are you listening President Trump? Do you want to be reelected?”

Sen. Mitch McConnell

U. S. Senate

Washington, DC 20510

Dear Mitch:

I am writing to you from the front lines of the battle to save America and save President Trump. I urge you to renew the $600 Covid unemployment benefit. That program has saved our New Hampshire economy.

Republicans nationally can’t brag about an economic recovery, while cutting themselves off by canceling the benefit that caused the upturn.

I know there has been controversy over whether some people did not go back to work. Reality check: there are always some people who will abuse a government program. In NH, full indoor dining has not recovered; many shops are still closed. Across the nation indoor dining has been blocked. Government has usurped the authority of small business owners by ordering a “greater good” closure of their establishments. In my book, that’s a “taking” under the Constitution. So, don’t be cheap with the “giving.”

The reason the special payments are a boon to citizens is that they create massive spending velocity. I am opposed to a “state aid” relief bill. Guess what? The Covid benefit benefits states and localities through the back door. Everyone benefits. The money is distributed; then it moves at “warp speed” to landlords, who pay taxes to local governments. That’s indirect state aid. The money also goes to utilities, grocery stores and other institutions that have maintained the spending that gave us the good economic news last month. If the economy recovers, the benefits become taxable! It’s a win-win situation.

Right now, the virus is challenging us again. Spending is slowing. If you cut the Covid benefit, I suspect you can kiss the senate majority away. People who are being evicted will tear at the heartstrings of the nation, and motivate people to vote against the president and GOP senate candidates.

I am a balanced budget guy and if I come to Washington, I will vote for spending restraint. But not now. We are in a national emergency that was caused by China. The government-ordered shutdowns of major parts of the economy disrupted tens of millions of Americans. How can leaders complain when the generous benefits they approved limited the stress of economic losses?

Do you know how much stress will be triggered if the benefits are ended? A lot. It’s a losing approach. Society will not recoup the unemployment money in savings because there will be other societal breakdowns that cost more, not less, than continuing the generous benefits in this desperate time .

Here's a tactic for you: stick it to the Democrats. Pass a simple bill which only renews the Covid unemployment benefit. Nothing else in the bill. It will be very popular with all Americans. The president will be a winner and the D’s will be stumped. It’s good politics.

Good luck.

Sincerely,

Andy

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 25, 2020) --- New Hampshire Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin will hold a Manchester news conference Saturday, July 25^th to disclose who he believes is “Q” of QAnon. Andy will also take the Digital Soldier Oath.

“I am not embracing 100% of QAnon,” Andy says. “But I am willing to look at issues on a case-by-case basis. I do believe there is a ‘Deep State,’ or whatever you want to call it. I believe a lot of information is being withheld from the public in an attempt to defeat President Trump for reelection. Only last week did we learn of damaging new data from the FBI. Why did it take 3-1/2 years for the public to learn of the Comey/Mueller conspiracy? What is still being concealed, 100 days before the election?

“I am a lifelong investigator; I want to know everything there is to know. I am perfectly capable of separating fact from fiction. As a senator, I would be a leading investigator in conducting congressional oversight.”

“In my earlier statement last week, I provided a detailed explanation of the QAnon belief system. No one has challenged my analysis. Saturday’s news conference is a follow-up.”

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says the QAnon movement is spreading widely and, like a similar virus, displays few visible signs to the naked eye. Andy explains how the QAnon movement may have originated, and explains why QAnon may be a citizens-opposition-in-waiting if Democrats prevail in November.

Andy will hold a special news conference in Manchester, NH Saturday, July 25^th to disclose who he believes is “Q” and also to take the digital soldier pledge.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 22, 2020)

Dear Granite State Voter:

The QAnon movement is largely a mystery. Except that it is not. The Republican Party has been challenged by QAnon supporters. QAnon believers are clearly becoming part of the party “base,” but they are not acknowledged as a movement within the GOP.

The liberal media have taken notice. The New York Times ran an extensively-researched article. (Please see Link [1] below.) The Atlantic conducted an extensive investigation. (Please see Link [2} below.) And after a congressional candidate in Colorado toppled an incumbent, the QAnon link was noted. (Please see link [3] below.)

Liberal media call QAnon a “conspiracy theory.” In part it is. But it is also a rapidly organizing movement that could form the initial citizens’ resistance to the Democrats if President Trump is defeated for reelection.

While QAnon is not a conspiracy theory – it is much to elaborate and complex to be a simple theory – it is a coherent belief system. Belief systems have at least three levels. First, they usually have a factual basis for the beliefs. Second, there is conjecture and speculation surrounding the beliefs. Finally, there are myths that grow around and provide s surrounding layer for the facts and conjectures.

Republicans are of two minds. President Trump has retweeted QAnon postings. But QAnon-themed clothing is not allowed at his rallies. (Please see Link [4] below.)

I don’t think the Republican Party nationally has an official position on QAnon, but as congressional candidates win primaries and appear on the ballot, there is increasing media scrutiny.

QAnon involves a series of interlocking facts and conjectures, including the existence of the “Deep State” and an international pedophile ring among other allegations. QAnon is drawing international attention. Hollywood is under attack.(Please see link [6] below.)

And there is also an element of hokey, Boy Scouterism involved. Recently “Q” issued a “digital solder oath.” Candidates have taken the oath and General Michael Flynn recently “took the

oath” as well.

Because of my decades-long investigative background, and my exposure of Barack Obama’s lies, I am constantly asked, “Who is Q?” In a very loose sense, QAnon can be seen as an inevitable outgrowth of the Obama campaign and Obama’s enduring legacy. There were masses of “conspiracy theories” about Obama. Most were untrue. But some were true. I never published a false fact about Obama. Indeed, it was my fact-based investigation of the Illinois state senator, whom I first encountered in Springfield, that irritated him the most. He could not dismiss me as, of course, a “conspiracy theorist.”

When I began investigating Obama in 2004 almost nothing was known about the man. I issued a prophetic proclamation in August, 2004 exposing his lies. (Please see link [5] below.) My investigative work became the Rosetta Stone for other authors who looked into Obama’s murky truths. And so, the fact that QAnon evenly morphed out of the anti-Obama movement does not surprise me.

To be clear, I do not deal in or traffic in conspiracy theories. I am not a supporter of QAnon, although the digital soldier oath may be a different matter. But I have been exceptionally successful over the decades in separating fact from fiction, and I am doing a deep dive into QAnon. There are facts behind the QAnon movement and there is an underlying basis for the adherents to Q. But there are other aspects of the movement that are not fact-based. I will do my best to separate fact from fiction.

My current primary is bizarre. One of my primary opponents manifests unstable and irrational behavior. The other one is a phony and crook. So, I could end up as the Republican nominee for the U. S. Senate. Would I be a QAnon supporter? You’ll have to wait and see.

We have a follow-up event scheduled for this coming Saturday in Manchester. Stay tuned.

Sincerely,

Andy

After the Washington Post awards Don Bolduc’s campaign “two Pinocchios” for seeking to mislead and defraud the public, New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says it is time for Bolduc to withdraw as a candidate for Senator

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says one of his primary opponents, former General Don Bolduc, must withdraw as a candidate to save New Hampshire Republicans from further embarrassment. The Washington Post exposed on July 9^th that Bolduc’s “campaign” had created misleading video suggestions that Bolduc was one of the “Horse Soldiers” in Afghanistan, when that was not true. “Bolduc’s campaign has been a train wreck since he announced,” Andy says. “The finding that his ‘campaign’ deserves ‘two Pinocchios’ for misleading campaign videos that suggested Bolduc was part of a specific military operation, the Horse Soldiers, when he was not, is a campaign killer for the ailing general.” Andy says the Bolduc campaign fraud also exposes the corruption and incompetence of the Union Leader newspaper and the Hearst-owned WMUR-TV, who failed to report on Bolduc’s exaggerations.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 15, 2020)

Dear Granite State Voter:

It looks like Don Bolduc is the most incompetent, or devious, U. S. Senate candidate in New Hampshire history. When he announced his candidacy, I pointed out Bolduc used a convicted stock swindler to narrate his announcement. (Please see link [1] below.) Last year Bolduc suggested Senator Mitch McConnell’s operatives were supporting Bolduc. Where’s Mitch? Mitch dumped Bolduc like a hot potato. (More phony reporting form New Hampshire’s media.)

Earlier this year Bolduc showed a total lack of awareness of the Civil War, a fatal flaw for a retired soldier. (Please see link [2] blow.)

Now the Washington Post, using an exquisite distinction, has awarded two “Pinocchios” (liar’s points) to Bolduc’s “campaign” for using a video associating Bolduc with a military operation, the “Horse Soldiers,” when Bolduc never participated in that operation.

The “Horse Soldiers” were men who fought in northern Afghanistan; a movie was made about them. Bolduc was in southern Afghanistan. He was never part of the actual Horse Soldiers. Yet his campaign issued videos suggesting he was part of the group when he was not.

The Washington Post says Bolduc’s “campaign” has been trying to mislead voters about his service.

You can read the Washington Post for yourself (link [3]). No reasonable person can deny that Bolduc has allowed his “campaign” to mislead the media. In the military, fine distinctions between operations mean everything when it comes to claiming credit for service in actual battles. The men who landed on Normandy Beach on D-Day were unique. If you landed on Normandy Beach two days later, you could not say you landed on D-Day.

To be clear, and as I have said before, I honor Don’s service to the nation and admire him. I have been shot at and targeted in various war zones. I know what Don went through. But his honorable service is not a blank check to be a senate candidate. And no one can hide behind military service to commit campaign fraud as Bolduc’s “campaign” did. The Washington Post distinguished between lies made by Bolduc’s “campaign,” and lies by Bolduc himself. Voters will not make the same fine separation.

Bolduc has no idea how to be a candidate, or run a campaign. In some sense, I feel sorry for him. He is being misused by his supporters and advisers. I warned this would happen, and it is.

Here’s the sad part. Or the shocking part. Neither the Union Leader nor WMUR took notice of the embarrassing national story in the Washington Post exposing their professional gullibility and incompetence because they failed to report on Bolduc’s misleading campaign. The effort by the Union Leader to cover-up the UL’s own journalistic incompetence about Bolduc’s exaggerations speaks for itself about that newspaper’s failure as media.

WMUR’s John DiStaso merely shuffles press releases on his desk and computer; he rarely does any original reporting. DiStaso fell for the Bolduc’s “Campaign” fraud hook, line and sinker.

Can you trust New Hampshire’s home-grown media liars? Hell no. They do more to hide the truth than report it.

As I have said so often. New Hampshire’s media are a disgrace. Over and over again national media have had to come in to New Hampshire to expose local media fraud. Likewise, the efforts by a Bolduc supporter in the Union Leader, Brendan Finn, to rouge up Bolduc’s campaign dishonesty was an ongoing effort to mislead New Hampshire voters. It will not succeed.

Can Bolduc continue his campaign as a retired military hero when his “campaign” has now been exposed as a political fraud? Doubtful. Bolduc has refused to make a full disclosure of how the misleading images in his campaign videos, suggesting he was a Horse Soldier, were photoshopped. Bolduc’s refusal to make the producer of his campaign videos available for searching examination is circumstantial evidence he knows he has been caught in a fraud. But then he also had a convicted stock swindler as a narrator when he announced his candidacy (link [1] below). Bolduc hopes the scandal will blow over. It won’t.

There is a military term for what Bolduc did: stolen valor. Bolduc has a distinguished military career. Why exaggerate his record by claiming credit for an operation where he never served? Because for Don Bolduc, too much is never enough. He can tap dance around the topic all he wants, but he never was a Horse Soldier; his campaign video efforts to suggest he was do an injustice to the many people of New Hampshire who are supporting him. His “defense” claim now that they also used horses in southern Afghanistan is pathetic. They also used asses.

Don Bolduc should apologize and withdraw before he further embarrasses himself. Bolduc’s “campaign” has made Bolduc a later day “Tail Gunner Joe,” another senate candidate who exaggerated his military career.

Is Don Bolduc a serious candidate for the senate? Don’t make me laugh. Are New Hampshire’s media crooked and incompetent? Don’t make me cry.

For shame.

Sincerely,

Andy

P.S. We have more research on Bolduc to come out in the days ahead; we are behind schedule on our promised “Bolduc Week” exposés. You may be surprised by what we know; Bolduc will be embarrassed.

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says that President Trump’s endorsement of “Porky” “Corky” Messner, a convicted drunk driver, indicates that once again Trump was betrayed by his own insiders

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin exposes how President Trump, who abhors alcohol, was induced to “endorse” a candidate in the September primary, “Porky” “Corky” Messner, despite the fact that Messner has a history of drunk driving. Andy explains how the corrupt “Fake News” media of New Hampshire have withheld the Messner story so they can use it to defeat Messner if he wins the primary. “The media in New Hampshire are Democratic Party stooges and pro-Jeanne Shaheen in November,” Andy says. “Using decades-old alcohol problems to tarnish Republicans is a tried and true Democratic strategy. Trump is endangering his reelection and doesn’t even know it. Someone should ask Trump on Saturday in Portsmouth why he would endorse a candidate with a drunk driving conviction.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 8, 2020)

Dear Granite State Voter:

“Colorado Corky,” a/k/a “Porky” Messner is a drunk driver. The media have ignored and not reported Messner’s drinking problem, with one exception, Tony Schinella of Patch.com (please see Link [1] below).

Am I just airing dirty linen by writing these remarks? Not by a long shot. I will connect up the dots so you see where I am coming from and where I am going. Media corruption and political incompetence and corruption are endemic in New Hampshire.

First, I will show you how President Donald Trump was betrayed by his closest advisers in the White House.

Second, I will explain how the corrupt “Fake News” New Hampshire media will work in concert with the Democratic Party if Messner wins the primary. John DiStaso of WMUR and Kevin Landrigan of the Union leader are puppets of the New Hampshire Democratic Party.

Third, I will produce a list of questions for President Trump to ask Messner before Trump highlights Messner at next Saturday’s Trump rally. Tragically, Trump is almost certainly setting himself up to lose New Hampshire by ham-handedly intervening in the September primary, as I have suggested before.

Trump the non-drinker:

President Trump does not drink, not socially, not “just a little,” not just at all. So, for Trump, alcohol abuse is a serious matter, almost a phobia. A brother died from alcoholism. It left a lasting scar on the president.

1. President Trump the dupe and Messner the Drunk Driver

a. Trump was betrayed by his own staff

If someone had walked into the president’s office and asked if he was willing to endorse a wealthy candidate he didn’t know, in a state he had to win, but the candidate had a drunk driving conviction in his past, what would Trump have said? Probably “Hell No.”

But Trump’s staff maneuvered and engineered the fateful endorsement of Messner because Trump is easily and often fooled by his “advisers” where political matters are concerned. Trump has the weakest political operation of any president in recent history. That is why he regularly makes decisions and issues tweets that jeopardize his own reelection. So, Trump was played by his insiders, and now he is stuck with a drunk driver as a candidate he has endorsed and who can only cost him votes in New Hampshire if Porky Corky wins the primary. Sad. My guess: someone somewhere along the pipeline got paid off to get Trump’s endorsement.

b. Messner’s drunk driving is a legitimate issue

Almost no one who is arrested for drunk driving has had only “one too many” on only one occasion. By the time you are driving drunk outside the white lines on a street, the way Messner was, you have a serious alcohol problem. Drunk drivers do not suddenly appear, and then disappear after a single arrest. They usually get smarter and may insulate themselves from their alcohol abuse by using chauffeurs, designated drivers and car services. But they are doing so because they drink too much to be safe on the road.

Messner has apologized and said he only got arrested once. Good for him. But we are not concerned with his alcohol “bust;” rather, we are concerned with whether he is a candidate whom the Fake News media, DiStaso and Landrigan, will blow up just before the election to reelect Jeanne Shaheen.

2. Media whores in New Hampshire are Democratic Party puppets

a. Am I exaggerating? Hell no!

In 2000, just before the presidential election, the media ginned up an old drunk driving charge against Governor George W. Bush, please see Link [2] below. The Bush drunk driving matter was 25 years old. Messner’s drunk driving conviction? Almost twenty-five years ago. The Bush drunk driving kerfuffle is almost a template for 2020.

Do New Hampshire Democrats use old mud to smear candidates in 2020? You betcha. Please see Link [3] below. They are already doing it. They are masters of the craft.

b. Local New Hampshire media corruption

In 2016, I exposed before the September primary that a Republican candidate for congress in the Second District was a fraud. DiStaso and Landrigan held back my information until just before the November election, when they suddenly “discovered” my research and exposed/defeated the GOP candidate.

While the Union Leader pretends to be a “conservative” newspaper, it hasn’t been conservative since the end of Loeb family ownership. The current owners have to exist in an increasingly liberal, if not leftist, New Hampshire and so the owners and writers at the Union Leader accommodate the needs of the state Democratic Party.

WMUR is owned by the liberal descendants of the original “Fake News” publisher, William Randolph Hearst, and they are a bunch of liberal trust fund babies. WMUR is immensely profitable, unlike the Union Leader. WMUR’s Manchester employees follow diktats from their liberal midtown-New York bosses.

The state Republican Party’s leadership has been living in the past, when Republicans really ran the state; often leaders are not aware they are being “played” by the local media. But Democrats keep winning and Republicans keep losing and on and on it goes.

New Hampshire’s print media are either dead or dying; in such a state corruption always seeps in to prolong the survival of a newspaper.

DiStaso and Landrigan are obviously aware of Schinella’s story. But they are pretending the Patch story does not exist. Then, when Democrats unveil Messner’s drunk driving charge in October, WMUR and the Union Leader will report Messner’s conviction as “news.”

3. What questions should President Trump ask Messner before showcasing his toxic “endorsement” next Saturday?

Trump questions to Messner:

a. What is your current level of alcohol consumption?

b. Did you ever attend or seek assistance for an alcohol or substance abuse problem?

c. Did you ever attend Alcoholics Anonymous?

d. Have you ever used a car service or “designated driver” (not yourself) when you were attending an event where alcohol is served?

e. Are there people in Colorado, where you live, who are potential witnesses to your drinking habits? (Andy Martin will be investigating.)

The Bottom Line:

If Messner wins the primary, he will be exposed by the Fake News media, and he will in all probability take President Trump’s campaign down with Messner’s own loss. Messner is a ticking time bomb, and he will be exploded when the Democrats want him to explode. It is as straightforward as that.

Because Trump’s ill-advised endorsement of Messner undermined Don Bolduc’s campaign and credibility, I have said Bolduc is a “carcass, not a candidate.” But with his drunk driving conviction, Messner is also a dead man walking in the days before the November election.

I am the only candidate with the political experience to smash back at the Democrats and take on Shaheen. That is why DiStaso and Landrigan follow their Democratic marching orders to constantly undermine my campaign. DiStaso and Landrigan will try their darndest to nominate a Republican loser and reelect Shaheen. Wait and see.

Sincerely,

Andy
