NEW: Ohio GOP congressional nominee JR Majewski has repeatedly claimed to not have been a Qanon follower but a review of finds he repeatedly shared Qanon material himself, including this deleted-video he made painting Qs on his lawn.
Between July 2020 and January 2021 on his now-deleted personal Twitter account, Majewski tweeted the QAnon hashtag #WWG1WGA -- which stands for "Where we go one, we go all" -- more than 50 times.
Tweets, some since removed show Majewski throughout the day in various places outside the Capitol -- including a video in which a member of the group leads them in repeating the slogan of QAnon.

NEW: During his 2006 congressional run, Tim Walz’s campaign falsely claimed he wasn’t drinking during his 1995 arrest and the DUI charge was dismissed. They even said he drove to the station.
In 2018, during his campaign for Minnesota governor, Tim Walz finally admitted to the facts of his 1995 arrest, acknowledging that he had been drinking and driving. He said it had been a life-changing moment.
He did not explain the discrepancies and how it was described in 2006.
NEW: JD Vance repeatedly indicated in 2016 that he believed Trump committed repeated sexual assault, questioned Trump’s credibility over his accusers and even tweeted, “What percentage of the American population has @realDonaldTrump sexually assaulted?”
Another post liked in 2016 by Vance said, “I wish there was a 2nd Vice Presidential debate just to see @GovPenceIN deny that Trump said he grabbed p*ssy.”
NEW: Ed Martin, a top leader on the RNC’s platform committee has entertained jailing women who get abortions and has advocated for a national ban without exceptions for rape.
He has pushed back on claims Trump is watering down the platform on abortion.
Martin, the deputy policy director for the convention’s platform committee, is one of threepeople the Republican National Committee selected in May to help craft the party’s platform, which serves as a blueprint for the Republican Party’s agenda by detailing policy positions and how Republicans and former President Donald Trump would govern if elected.
Martin has questioned the safety of a birth control and has also said there are no instances in which an abortion needs to be performed to save the life of a mother.
“It’s an absolute scientific fact that no abortion is ever performed to save the life of the mother. None, zero, zilch,” he said in June 2022.
NEW from me: JD Vance, a top candidate to be Trump's VP liked tweets in 2016 and 2017 that harshly criticized Trump and his policies — including one speculating that he'd serve in a Clinton administration.
Other tweets liked by Vance said Trump committed “serial sexual assault,” called him “one of USA’s most hated, villainous, douchey celebs." A since-removed set of tweets, also harshly criticized Trump’s response to the White nationalist rally in Charlottesville – something he now defends Trump over.
Vance liked a series of tweets calling then-candidate Trump a “monster” and a “nemesis of the GOP.” He also liked a tweet acknowledging “threats and derogatory terms Trump supporters hurl at Jews.” He even liked a tweet from CNN anchor Jake Tapper criticizing Trump’s tweet about a woman’s appearance amidst then-first lady Melania Trump’s campaign against cyberbullying.
He also liked a tweet that read, “Does any dad (or future dad) want to look his daughter in the eye and explain why he voted for Trump instead of 1st woman president?”
Among the harshest tweets Vance liked was one that called out Trump after the “Access Hollywood” tape surfaced, capturing previously unaired lewd and sexually aggressive remarks by the presidential nominee. “Maybe the Central Park 5 could take out a full-page ad to condemn the coddling of thug real estate barons who commit serial sexual assault,” the tweet read.
Other tweets Vance engaged with criticized signature Trump policies, including Trump’s hardline position on immigration and the tax cuts from 2017.
NEW: Michele Marrow, the GOP nominee to run North Carolina’s public schools and its $11 billion budget has repeatedly called for executing Democrats including Joe Biden and Barack Obama (who she said she wanted executed PPV on TV).
The Biden execution comment was because Biden suggested Americans were masks at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
She also suggested executing Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Hillary Clinton, Sen. Chuck Schumer and other prominent people such as Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates.
Morrow also promoted QAnon slogans and tweeted that the actor Jim Carrey was “… likely searching for adrenochrome” – a reference to a conspiracy theory shared by QAnon believers that celebrities harvest and drink the blood of children to prolong their own lives.

Exclusive: Kenneth Chesebro, who helped devise the Trump campaign’s fake electors plot, concealed a secret Twitter account from Michigan prosecutors, hiding dozens of posts that undercut his statements to investigators about his role in the scheme. cnn.com/2024/02/26/pol…
Chesebro told Michigan investigators GOP electors served as a backup plan if Trump prevailed in election lawsuits. He dismissed the notion of legislatures intervening if Trump lost in court as "absurd."
But as BadgerPundit on Twitter that's exactly what he advocated.
“We should have asked for clarity, and that was our screw-up,” Chesebro attorney Manny Arora told CNN about Chesebro denying to Michigan prosecutors that he used Twitter.
Arora said he has since provided “all the information on BadgerPundit” to investigations in “all the different states that are involved,” where Chesebro sat for interviews.
