Who is Kathy Barnette?
Washington Examiner ^ | 5/11/2022 | Salena Zito

Posted on 05/11/2022 9:43:55 AM PDT by TexasGurl24

Barnette, in her bio on her webpage, says: "Appearing regularly on national TV and radio, Kathy Barnette is a veteran, former adjunct professor of corporate finance, sought-after conference speaker, and conservative political commentator. Next up — Kathy is taking on Washington D.C. and is running for the U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania."

The bio also reads: "Kathy served her country proudly for 10 years in the Armed Forces Reserves where she was accepted into Officer Candidacy School. She worked with two major financial firms in corporate America and sat on the board of a pregnancy crisis center for five years."

The questions to the campaign, which said it doubted whether she would have time for an interview because she was booked for interviews continuously until Election Day, were pretty straightforward and simple:

The name of her hometown Where was she an adjunct professor and when? When was she in officer candidate school? What financial institutions did she work at and when? When did she move from Virginia to Pennsylvania? (She says in her book bio from 2018 that she lived in Virginia, so what year did she move to Pennsylvania?) And a confirmation that the college she graduated from was Troy State University. The reply from the campaign manager noted, “Kathy keeps her early life as private as possible as I am sure you can understand why” — a reference one could surmise was to her life story, which she told compellingly in an ad this past week about being the child of rape.

She could be hiding nothing. She could be hiding everything. We don’t know because there are no answers. While people hold a strong distaste for the press, many level-headed conservatives who really want to win this seat in November...

Melania had nothing to do with it. Trump loves Oprah.

Does anyone here on FR know anything about her other than what she's presented in her campaign materials?

That's fair. Just be careful of accusing her of things that were done by others -- in this case, Wiki. I have no doubt that the Democrats will drag her through the mud if they can. She's the thing they hate the worst -- an intelligent, family-oriented black woman who has gone off the Democrat reservation.

Do you know anything about Dr. Oz? As a doctor he’s a charlatan. Maybe you should go back and watch him.

Also, there was supporting evidence that, at least, he loved America.

I think you can sey the same of someone who devoted several years of her life to military service adn went to Officers Candidates School.

My Liberal dad will not vote for Fetterman, he does not like him. Lamb would be much more dangerous to us.

I know that a lot of people whose judgment I trust are supporting her.

A friend of mine makes political ads. Tough ones. He works only for principled, consistent conservatives. He is one of those people who believes we need to play teh game against the left the way they play it against us.

He’s a strong barnette supporter. He’s usually right in terms of candidates.

No one is asking her to drop out stay in the race. But in my heart I don’t think she’s a good conservative. And if she is a good conservative and she happens to come and second behind Dr. Oz and she decides to fight alongside a doctor Oz that’s something other.

Nick calling Dr. Oz a charlatan is a little low even around here. If Kathy doesn’t win Nick I know for sure you’re gonna stay home and suck your thumb for about six months.

As Candace Owens has said, “Democrats believe they own blacks — still.”

Democrats view balcks as property — THEIR property. They view black Republicans, especially conservatives, as stolen property. Their view of blacks has not changed one iota since the day tehir party was founded. The only thing that has chnged is the color of the hoods.

Because Oz told you so?

Yeah, Trump said a lot of people were ok who certainly were not. He still says the covid vaccine is wonderful which it certainly is not. I live in Pa and I will take a chance and vote for this young woman. I love a lot of things about Trump, although his executive order banning bump stocks was stupid on his part. I will certainly vote for Trump in the election if Desantis doesn’t run, but honestly he talks out of his ass way too much.

That’s OK. I didn’t accuse her of anything. My point may have been misunderstood. When I saw that her Wikipedia page had been removed, my first thought was that it was taken down because it had previously contained false or unverifiable information (based on the subject of this thread).

Yes! It was scrubbed at least 3 days ago when I was googling her name.

I was going to start a thread about it but I didn’t. I wasn’t sure who to blame.

But in my heart I don’t think she’s a good conservative.

She's been on the board of a Crisis Pregnancy Center for five years. To me, pro-life is at the core of conservative values, and a CPC isn't the sort of thing you just fall into to be on the board of directors.

Exactly. We love President Trump and the things he did for this country, but we should not be blind Trumpkins who just automatically support anything he says or does just because he said it or did it.

Mehmet Oz is a case in point. The Trump administration included a lot of people who should not vhe been chosen, as well as many who were great. Trump has not had a great eye for personnel, and as Morton Blackwell always remoinded us, personnel is policy.

Look at hte candidates’ records. NBarnette is teh conservative in this race.

My guess is that she doesn’t trust Salena Zito, that she senses Zito is out to sabotage her.

LOL. I have not endorsed Barnette, I don't know that much about her, but I can't believe she's worse than Oz.

It's amazing you don't have a memory longer than 5 minutes. Dr. Oz was created by Oprah, and he had a show where he hypnotized women into doing what he told them, and he was widely recognized as a charlatan. Go back and look it up. He never decided he was a Republican until 2022.

So, you admit you are a pro-abortion extremist? And a transgender and child transgender extremist?

Compared to Dr. Oz, Mitt Romney is an ultraconservative.

Can you produce any evidence Dr. Oz was a conservative, or even a Republican before he started running for Senate?
