BULLETINS:

 

1. University of New Hampshire agrees to consider its compliance with the state’s freedom of information (“Right to Know”) law

 

The University of New Hampshire has agreed to reconsider its patently fraudulent refusal to comply with New Hampshire’s freedom of information (“Right to Know”) law. UNH had claimed it had not polled on Republican senate primary candidates, when the results were actually listed on the school’s web site. UNH staff are retaliating against Andy Martin. Because UNH is a state university, the “Mt. Healthy Doctrine” applies, Mt. Healthy v. Doyle, 429 U. S. 274 (1977) which bars retaliation by state agencies. New Hampshire applies the federal precedent, Snelling v. Claremont, 931 A.2d 1272 (N.H. 2007). Andy has set forth a prima facie case of unconstitutional retaliation and harassment by a state agency in deliberately trying to rig polls against him.

 

2. New charges of debate discrimination against WMUR-TV in Second Congressional District

 

Andy’s charges of debate fraud are well-known. But now WMUR-TV is being accused of debate fraud in another GOP primary. Even senate candidate Don Bolduc appears to have protested the rigged second congressional district debate (though not protested in Bolduc’s own primary). “In trying to lock the door on me, WMUR is also discriminating against other candidates in other races to avoid obvious evidence of discriminatory behavior,” Andy says. “The second congressional district debate fraud is just another case of fake news and misinformation directed at New Hampshire voters by WMUR.”

 

3. New Hampshire candidate preparing to picket Hearst Family corporate headquarters on 8th Avenue in New York City

 

“WMUR’s goal in disrupting and discriminating against my campaign is to control who gets to run and be heard in New Hampshire, to protect Democrats from tough opponents” Andy says. “I am preparing to go to the Hearst Family corporate headquarters on 8th Avenue in New York City to picket the company for abusing its public responsibilities as trustee of a TV station license. Because WMUR has a local monopoly in New Hampshire, the Hearst Family’s discriminatory behavior is disgraceful and even more corrosive to democracy.”

 

4. FCC political discrimination case against Hearst Family TV station shows an 11-2 disparity against Republicans in debate participants, violating U. S. Constitution

 

“In 2018, WMUR accommodated eleven (11) Democratic candidates in its debate format,” Andy says. In 2020, WMUR is trying to limit Republicans to two (2) candidates debating. WMUR is blatantly biased in favor of accommodating Democrats and discriminating against Republicans. The 11-2 ratio is outrageous and indicative of just how arrogant and corrupt the station’s employees are. It is a violation of FCC principles to discriminate in favor of Democrats and against the Republicans. The 11-2 ratio is powerful evidence of subservience to Democrats and hostility against Republicans. President Trump take notice. We are drafting an emergency complaint to the FCC.”

 

5. St. Anselm College, a Benedictine Roman Catholic institution, is accused of polling fraud

 

Andy has learned that St. Anselm College’s polling center has conducted a second fraudulent poll in which his name was deliberately excluded. A “poll” from which a candidate’s name is deliberately excluded cannot be a valid poll under FCC practices. St. Anselm has until today to provide exculpatory evidence or the Benedictine facility will be sued. It appears that St Anselm’s is conspiring with WMUR to conduct rigged debates against Andy’s campaign.

 

6. The Hearst Family’s WMUR-TV discrimination against GOP candidates and senate candidate Andy Martin is unprecedented in recent American media history

 

Andy’s supporters have done research. There is no precedent for the Hearst Family’s efforts to destroy a U. S. Senate candidate such as those that Hearst employees are directing against Andy.

 

7. Pope Francis will be asked to intercede in St. Anselm College’s debate polling fraud as being against Catholic doctrine

 

Because St. Anselm is a Benedictine Catholic institution, it holds itself to a higher moral and ethical goal than the mere “morals of the marketplace.” Andy is preparing to ask Pope Francis to intervene to urge Benedictines to block any fraudulent polling or debate activity by St. Anselm’s. “I am sure the Holy Father will be as distressed as I am at the blatant politicization of the college, a tax-exempt institution, in furtherance of the nefarious agenda of WMUR-TV. Benedictines cannot allow the college to support corrupt activity. It is a violation of Catholic morality, as well as our tax laws,” Andy says.

 

8. Why is the Hearst Family TV station WMUR-TV corrupting New Hampshire’s elections with debates rigged in favor of Democrats?

 

WMUR’S attempts to block Andy from debating his primary election opponents are consuming an incredible amount of expense and energy on the part of colleges and media. Why are they acting in this gratuitously hostile and discriminatory manner? Recently, someone claiming to be “federal lawyer” (doubtful) verbally assaulted Andy and complained that he cost political opponents hundreds of thousands of dollars to defend against discrimination claims. “Then why not just conduct honest debates and save the money?” Andy responded. Steve Negron, a second congressional district primary candidate, has complained to WMUR and said the station’s practices excluding candidates from debates “do not represent New Hampshire values.” Well said, Steve.

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says that a TV ad being broadcast by U. S. Senate candidate General Don Bolduc in which Bolduc refers to “Pansies” is unacceptable and disqualifies Bolduc from leading New Hampshire Republicans in November

 

 

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin questions whether retired General Don Bolduc is a complete screwball or whether Bolduc just plays one on the campaign trail. Andy says that Bolduc’s use of the term “pansies” in a Bolduc TV ad is unacceptable in 2020. Bolduc cannot represent the Republican Party in November

Dear Granite Stater:

 

How we feel in private has no correlation to how we are expected to behave in public. Ordinary citizens are given a lot more freedom, though not unlimited, in comparison with candidates for public office and public officials.

 

The term “Pansy” has always referred to a homosexual man in my many decades as an adult. Not so long ago, references to homosexuality in politics were acceptable. And while the Republican Party has been slower than the Democratic Party to welcome homosexuals, our greatest and recent Director of National Intelligence (“DNI”) Rick Grenell was--. Well, you know what. (Only 8 years ago the Romney campaign had dumped Grenell because of his sexual orientation.)

 

Unlike some conservative regions, New Hampshire is an exceptionally tolerant state. The Log Cabin Republicans, a gay organization, is accepted in the GOP today, when it was less widely accepted a decade ago. Times change, sometimes slowly, sometimes overnight.

 

LGBT Republicans are welcome in my campaign. Even I have much to learn about human sexuality. But as a conservative Christian, I can state unequivocally that we are created by our Creator; we do not create ourselves. What we make of our lives is our responsibility; how we are born is not.

 

You don’t have to agree with everything the courts say, or your priest or pastor says, to accept the unyielding principle that homosexuals should not be demonized in public or politics. No American should live in fear of being verbally or physically attacked or discriminated against in a political campaign.

 

That is why Bolduc’s TV ad attacking “pansies” is so bizarre and outrageous.

 

Bolduc suffers from PTSD. He has my highest respect and, yes, love, for his unbelievable service to our nation. I have a personal sense of what he has endured on the battlefield. But neither PTSD nor military service are a blank check for bizarre behavior, especially as a candidate for the U. S. Senate. I will be analyzing PTSD at a later date. But PTSD is clearly not an excuse to act unhinged. Bolduc is free to believe what he believes in the privacy of his own home; he is not free to broadcast his beliefs on TV if he expects to lead the party in 2020.

 

During the campaign, Bolduc has made several strange statements. I have exposed some of them, and there are more exposés coming in the days before the primary election.

 

The total bad judgment Bolduc has exhibited by running a “pansy” TV ad disqualifies him to lead the Republican Party ticket in November. Whatever your personal views on homosexuality, and I fully accept that there is still a broad spectrum of opinion in our party, public attacks on homosexuals or the use of slurs such as “Pansy” are not acceptable. There is no way he can win in November. Period.

 

I hope you agree.

New York Senator Charles Schumer attacks New Hampshire GOP Senate candidate Andy Martin; Andy fires back at Schumer

Senator Charles Schumer
United States Senate
Washington, DC 20510

with copy to:

Senator Jeanne Shaheen
United States senate
Washington, DC 20510


Re: Your attack on New Hampshire GOP Senate candidates

Dear Senator Schumer:

I suppose it is an honor to be slammed by the biggest publicity hound in Washington – you. I had always considered you sleazy; but after your latest caper, supporting Jeanne Shaheen by attacking me, you are downright greasy. You are a prime example of why most Americans consider New Yorkers obnoxious and untrustworthy. When it comes to the low road you never disappoint.

I have watched Jeanne Shaheen’s steady decline over the past six years (I ran in the 2014 GOP primary to oppose her) but I did not know how desperate the poor thing was until she turned to you for support. You responded by smearing three (3) veterans and making a general ass of yourself in New Hampshire, where New York-style politics is most unwelcome.

I have an honorable discharge from the U. S. Air Force (you can see it on my web site, www.AndyMartin2020.com). Two other candidates are also veterans with significant service. The disrespect you reflect for men who answered the call to service, and have suffered greatly for it, is a disgrace to the Senate.

Now we know who really are.

I came to the Senate as an unpaid intern in 1965, writing a thesis on the conference committee. In 1966 I returned as both a paid intern and paid campaign operative. So, I know the senate up close. You are not fit to shine the shoes of most senators from that era. Your principal claim to fame is that you are the political godfather of disgraced pedophile Congressman Anthony Wiener. What a legacy.

Enough of talking about your disgraceful record.

Let me address the specific concerns you raised about me.

1. “Serial litigant”

Next month I will attend a special dinner for members of my law school class. Even as a law student I became a public interest lawyer, exposing local corruption. Over the decade I have won landmark court victories. My record of successful litigation can be found, in part, at my web site www.AndyMartin.com. For the past fifteen years I have served our men and women in uniform when they called on me for assistance, www.FirstRespondersonline.us.

I won a landmark victory for a U. S. Marine in the Pennsylvania Supreme Court (see same link).

I understand you went to law school. I seriously doubt you could find the door to the courthouse, prepare a motion or present a trial. But you slander those, such as me, who have labored mightily and at great personal cost to improve our judiciary. My senator, Paul H. Douglas, was always proud of my efforts. I helped send crooked politicians to federal prison; I only wish you had been one of them.

2. “King of the birthers”

In 2004 I wrote an expose of then senate candidate Barack Obama.

I exposed that Obama was a liar and a fraud, http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1189687/posts

Every accusation I made, long before the truth about Obama was generally known, turned out to be substantially true. I was the first independent author to do real research in Hawai’i. I carefully separated my own beliefs from the facts I found. None of my facts were ever impeached.

The media labelled the anti-Obama movement “Birthers.” Initially, the Birther movement focused on my research, which was carefully documented. Later, political hucksters such as yourself (and Hillary Clinton) took my research and distorted it.

My accusations against Obama have stood the test of time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgjQhnDEGSk

Last year Adam Sexton at WMUR-TV, Channel 9, Manchester, falsely accused me on live TV or having accused Obama of being born outside Hawai’i. I corrected Mr. Sexton that I have never made such an accusation. I slammed back at Sexton’s lies, which are routine at his television station. https://www.wmur.com/article/granite-state-debate-martin-answers-question-about-birther-movement/23015892

On the contrary, I did file a lawsuit in Hawai’i to force the release of Obama’s birth certificate, which he steadfastly refused to disclose voluntarily. I filed in Hawai’i because I believed (and have always believed) he was born there. My lawsuit was the opening set in what became efforts to pry loose his original document. So please don’t lie about me, Schumer. It may be hard for you to tell the truth, but at least try. I did not, as you accuse me, “make a hobby of suing… Hawai’i.” And why did Obama fight efforts to secure his birth certificate? What did he think he had to hide? We still don’t know.

3. Is Obama a Muslim?

I will respond to one often-made accusation which for some reason your sliming overlooked. In my original release exposing Obama (link above), I said he could be a Muslim (his father and grandfather and all of his relatives in Kenya were/are Muslims, how was he the odd man out?) and he was probably hiding his past because he might be accused of anti-Semitism. I had intelligence sources not available to the general public and my research turned out to be 100% correct. Well, well, what a surprise.

I knew in 2004 what the nation came to be painfully aware over eight years. Obama has been accused of being the most anti-Semitic president in recent political history, a worthy precursor to Representatives Talib and Omar of today.

I think that Obama is and always was a Muslim sympathizer. Interestingly, he never joined a Christian church in Washington and since being reelected I doubt that he has attended services at any church where he was not the featured guest. Obama’s God, however, was always himself, not the guy/gal up in the heavens. I think reasonable people could disagree about Obama’s religion, but no one could dispute his pro-Muslim sympathies.

President Trump is still cleaning up the mess Obama left behind in Washington.

Conclusion

I knew Jeanne Shaheen was in decline, and increasingly has to be propped up by the Democratic Party machine in New Hampshire. But I didn’t realize she was so enfeebled she needed to import mud merchants such as yourself to attack legitimate candidates in the GOP primary (I will let the other candidates you attacked defend themselves).

I won’t ask for an apology. Having been shot at in Viet-Nam and elsewhere, I have a pretty thick skin.

But I will ask for an apology on behalf of the People of New Hampshire, Democrats, Republicans and Independents. We don’t want your cesspool-style politics in New Hampshire; keep it for yourself in New York.


Sincerely yours,

Andy Martin
