Think they're worried about Barnette winning?
Ric Grennell torched his credibility and essentially signed his resignation papers from the conservative movement by launching this fake, paid attack on Kathy Barnette:

Until you realize that sometimes people use hashtags to get people to click on their post, and then they hit them with a counter-message that the person clicking wasn't expecting.
Is that what happened here?
Um, yes.
Here's the video that is linked by those hashtags: a video in which she says-- yells, actually --
"DEFUNDING THE POLICE IS STUPID, PEOPLE! ABOLISHING THE POLICE IS STUPID, PEOPLE! BLACK PEOPLE, DO NOT FALL FOR THE OKEY-DOKE! DO NOT FALL FOR THESE WHITE LIBERALS COMING INTO OUR COMMUNITIES AND TELLING YOU TO DEFUND THE POLICE!"
"THEY ARE DESTROYING OUR LIVES!" ("The okey-doke" is slang for the juke, the fake-out, the con, etc.)
And she talks about "law and order falling to the mob," and tells the story of a one-year-old baby being shot and killed by gang-bangers who are out-of-control and empowered due to police having withdrawn from the streets due to BLM and Defund the police.
Don't believe me? Well, don't take my word for it, and don't take Ric Grennell's word for it, either.
Just watch. About two minutes should do it:

People keep telling Ric Grennell to withdraw this ugly and stupid lie, but he won't:
grennellwithdrawyourlie.jpg Now why would a man introduce such a stupid and ugly and easily-disproven lie, and then, when the lie is shown to be so ugly and stupid and easily-disproven, stand behind it?
Well, the answer is obvious: When you're being paid cash-money to spread the lie.
Deb Heine, Dissident @NiceDeb Dumb-- @Kathy4Truth was using popular hashtags to draw attention to a video in which she literally says: "abolishing the police is stupid, people."
Why would a man burn so much of his credibility for such a stupid lie? Easy -- when he's selling his credibility to a client. It's a commodity he's selling like firewood.
Dozens and dozens of people keep saying "Watch the video" but Grennell won't acknowledge them. He makes no arguments that the video really says this or that. He doesn't want to even get into it.
He knows what the video says. He doesn't care. Because he's being paid to lie on behalf of a client.
Screenshot (2169).png Now, you may say, that was cheap, Ace.
And you may say: You can't prove he's being paid. Maybe he really just (giggle) believes in (snarf) Mehmet Oz. Maybe he just (laugh) has Mehmet Oz Fever.
Okay, then explain the following.
Having watched the first video, you can see this woman is very strongly opposed to the Black Victimhood/Blame Whitey agenda and BLM.
So someone cut up a bunch of her videos in which she mentions "white privilege" and "racism" -- almost surely arguing against the standard Black Victimhood narrative on these topics -- and just edits them together to show her saying these words, to imply she's a black radical.
Is it plausible that she's a black radical, given that she just blasted BLM and said they were effectively killing black people by cowing the police?
No, it's not.
But someone chopped up one-second soundbites and stitched together a Frankenvideo of Kathy Barnette saying words like "white privilege" and "racism" and "I have slave blood in my veins." (The latter, no doubt, to establish that she has authority to speak on these issues and is not an "Uncle (Aunt) Tom.")
And guess who links this?
That's right, Noted Totally-Not-Being-Paid-For-This Completely-Authentic Mehmet Oz SuperFan, Ric Grennell.
This is so embarrassing that I suspect Ben Howe was involved. (Not really.)
Screenshot (2170).png Maybe Ric Grennell really is a Mehmet Oz SuperFan -- maybe he just really loves Oz's support of gender-bending children.
I agree that Obama et al. made it much, much worse. (The ‘beer summit’ was transparent, ridiculous pandering and manipulation; I felt very sorry for the cop who had to endure that.)
This….wiki removing her page…her excellent debate….should ALL have a positive effect.
You posted to a clickbait link defaming Ms. Barnette.
If you had said: “this is a clickbait link purporting to show that she is a full-on blm/anti-cop fanatic that was taken from a longer clip showing Ms. Barnette opposed to rioting and destroying businesses, etc.,” and then posted the full clip, that would not have been defaming at all.
Instead, you just re-posted, with no clarifying comment, the defaming link from a jackass on twitter defaming this woman.
You are a defamer. Live with it.
bump
Wrong, troll.
I posted what Kelly (and, Grenell) might have tried to be referring to. I also agreed it was a smear.
Yeah, I’ve got a track record of “defaming” Kathy.
🙄
You obviously DON’T look, before you leap into that 💩 of yours.
Now, buzz off, troll.
Watch the entire clip. Greg Kelly is tweeting only a portion.
Several have posted entire clip link, upthread.
See right above your post. Another poster finds your lack of context suggesting that you are posting against her, and that the link legitimately calls into question her conservatism and her character.
Perhaps you didn’t intend to defame her with your bare post. But that is the net effect. If tahat wasn’t your intention, then request that your defamatory post be removed.
Jeez. You’ve been proved to be incorrect in your knee-jerk assumptions about the clip, and now you’re trying deflection as a way out.
Dude/ette, give it a rest, eh?.
JL is one of the good ‘guys’ and we all post inadvertently on rare occasions.
😂😂
80% is great!!
Agree. I don’t like taking a short clip, like that.
Tweet the entire vid/segment link, and, question that, if there are doubts. The way they went about this is low.
Will there be another poll before the 17th? It would be helpful if she went into election day as the front runner.
It’s a bad post. If it wasn’t intentional, she can ask to have it removed. I’ve done it myself in 24 years here.
Saw this….

Good pics, at link.
Keep the scotch - it’s probably Irish or American.
I’m glad you’ve apologized. (I still don’t see the point of bringing up ‘stolen valor’. It made you look like you were flailing - if you weren’t actually trying to insert suspicion.)
