Barnette Campaign Manager Hangs Up on Reporter After Request for Military Records
Free Beacon ^ | 5/11/22 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 05/11/2022 4:14:10 PM PDT by conservative98

Pennsylvania GOP Senate candidate Kathy Barnette is touting her military service on the campaign trail—but asked on Wednesday to provide basic details about that record, Barnette's campaign manager abruptly ended a phone call.

The incident is the latest in a series in which Barnette's campaign has rebuffed requests for her DD214, a standard form issued to service members when they leave the military. The form would show when Barnette served, under which branch, and the terms of her discharge.

Her failure to provide the form has raised questions from military veterans, including former Republican candidate and decorated combat veteran Sean Parnell, who dropped out of the Pennsylvania race in November.

Another WEIRD discrepancy: In those documents Kathy Barnett sent to Jack, the years of "service" don't add up to TEN, as she claims on her PAPER THIN résumé. Something is UP. pic.twitter.com/p5Mj07XI92— Greg Kelly (@gregkellyusa) May 11, 2022

This shows 7 years. Was she in ROTC for the other 3 years? I could look up her bio on wikipedia but they canceled her.

I’m concerned about pretty much everything about him.
He’s obviously intelligent as a cardiothoracic surgeon. (Cue the Alec Baldwin Malice speech)

What a big nothing to fight about. So what if she was just in the reserves, at least she did that. Mountain out of a Mole Hill. She didn’t lie about service, so what is the big deal??????????????? If she is a Conservative and can win then support her, otherwise stay home and sulk.

I hope someone else wrote her biographical profile.

Anyone with a military background who claims she was accepted into Officer CANDIDACY School (its called Officer Candidate School) really comes across as a dope.

Barnette’s whole campaign is starting to look like an amateurish joke.

Any lines of attack used against her in the primary will be repeated in the general, should she be the nominee. Her team needs to have some very effective answers in place.

When you promote yourself has having Military Service.....you kinda assume some kind of active duty....not a desk job for 7 years. She did it and good for her....just not what I expected.

Whether or not she was a paratrooper or a paper pusher doesn’t matter to me. As long as she served honorably is what’s important to me.

For the record I’m a strictly civilian citizen.

She has never held office before and lost her last election by 19% and has never really been tested.

Richard Grenell just dug up a bunch of her anti-Muslim and anti-homosexual tweets from a few years ago. Whether you agree with her or not, this will be used against her. And. She. Will. Lose. The. General.

We need to trust president Trump and continue to vote in his candidates. He did the vetting for us.

Enough with this circular firing squad crap.

I like what she has to say and I like her spirit. She doesn’t seem like a person who will go to DC and turn into a RINO.

Oz screams of RINOism.

This reminds me of the time when Rubio campaign spread false rumors that Ben Carson had dropped out of the race the day of the the Iowa caucuses.

She is SERIOUSLY over the target. Wave after wave of hit pieces. In just a couple of days.

This says to me that she's winning on the internal polls, to the extent that the Oz-bots are freaking out. Sad.

Yet again, we get to witness a GOPe goon-squad attempt to knee-cap a solid conservative candidate at the 11th hour. Whose side are they on anyway?

You’re spreading false info.

That was not Rubio.

Ted Cruz spread a rumor in Iowa that Ben Carson was dropping out.

Ted Cruz also supports Dave McCormick who spread a rumor that Oz was dropping out.

Ben Carson is supporting Oz. Along with Trump. Rick Perry. Hannity. Ted Nugent. That’s the greatest President ever, a brain surgeon, a Texas governor, a conservative talkshow legend, and a musician/2A enthusiast. They wouldn’t be supporting a RINO in a primary like this.
