Peter Thiel, Losing Arizona

If Republicans lose a tantalizingly close Arizona Senate race, don’t place the blame entirely at the feet of nominee Blake Masters. Look to his AWOL booster club.

In the Republican push to retake the Senate, the Grand Canyon State ought to be a prime pickup. Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly only narrowly won his 2020 special election. Republican and unaffiliated voters make up the vast majority of the electorate, and most are angry over inflation, border chaos and rising crime. Polls are tightening and suggest Mr. Masters has cut the Kelly lead in half over the past month. He trails by about 4 points in the RealClearPolitics average.

The problem is money, or rather Mr. Masters’ lack of it. Only six weeks ago the nominee emerged from a brutal, expensive five-way primary. Spending even more heavily to ensure a Masters victory was billionaire donor Peter Thiel, who backed his former employee to the tune of $12 million. The Thiel support influenced Donald Trump to endorse Mr. Masters and to hold a rally for him in the run-up to the primary. The New York Times in February described Mr. Thiel as the new “would-be kingmaker” of the GOP.

Only where’s the would-be kingmaker now? Sitting in his counting house, the doors firmly locked. Mr. Thiel has abandoned the Arizona race, as well as the Ohio Senate candidate he spent $15 million to nominate, J.D. Vance.

Criticism is landing on Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s Senate Leadership Fund, which recently announced it was canceling $8 million in Arizona ad reservations. But spare a thought for the outfit that has been left holding the Thiel-Trump bag. Resources aren’t infinite, and Mr. McConnell’s super PAC suddenly finds itself having to shovel unexpected millions into defending an Ohio seat that ought to be a breeze but in which (Thiel-less) Mr. Vance is struggling. It’s also defending seats in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and North Carolina. One Nation (affiliated with the Senate Leadership Fund) spent some $13 million in Arizona through Labor Day, and the fund will be playing on television again in October.

But it may prove too late. Mr. Kelly continues to coast on a bio that depicts him as a tough-guy former astronaut as well as a bold moderate who puts Arizona first. “I’m pushing for solutions today, even if it means taking on my own party,” brags a recent ad, in which he says he’s “bringing down gas prices by allowing more domestic oil production.” Another has him declaring his party’s defund-the-police movement “wrong,” and palling around with cops.

I think that Florida paid for the planes to take them from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard. Apparently Florida is flooded with illegals,though Florida is neither a border state nor a sanctuary state.

Watch for the disinformation media to spin the “refugees” time in Martha’s Vineyard as having been one of being treated with compassion and love. They will say nothing of using the military to get the migrants off of their island in less than 48 hours.

Send them ONLY to sanctuary states.

Biden has been sending them all over the country for his entire administration. The optics of more than a million illegal immigrants waiting at the border would not be good for the Dems. Disinformation media might even have to cover it

Venezuela to the nearest US city is more than 4000 miles. How did these people WALK that in 6 weeks? 4000 divided by 42 is almost 100 miles per day. They may have walked from time to time but most of the trip was probably in trucks, busses, cars or trains. It is all a fraud. I despise the America-last Dem party.

Yes Florida is packed with illegals. Biden was flying them in, and NGOs transport them there.

“These idiot lib drones need to see live drone shots of our TX border!!“

It is time for the governors of the border states to put up drones and traffic cameras all along the border which can be looked on a website for 24 hours a day online. Many cities have such traffic cameras. That way the mayors like DC’a Bowser will not be able to say that the Texas towns have the infrastructure to care for the “migrants”.

No city should have adequate infrastructure for an invasion.

Trump is telling it like it is. Painting a bleak picture of America & laying it at the Dim’s feet.
