Perhaps you’ve noticed. For the past two nights Fox News and a host of corporate allies have been doing a full-frontal attack against Pennsylvania Senate Candidate Kathy Barnette. The club reaction appears to have been triggered by a GOP Trafalgar poll showing Kathy Barnette in a close second place (23.2%), surging ahead of David McCormick (21.6%) and right on the heels of Mehmet Oz (24.5%). [Bartos 7.2%, Sands 6.5%] In this outline I will explain the easily visible GOPe club moves without trying to support any particular candidate, that’s for Pennsylvania voters to decide. However, once you understand the background...

Kathy Barnette is in a statistical three-way tie with David McCormick and Dr. Oz who’ve largely ignored her campaign until new numbers show Kathy is now a contender. And just like that, everything but the kitchen sink is being thrown at the Barnette campaign beginning yesterday ahead of Tuesday’s primary day. Hear Barnette answer all the accusations and tough questions from Stigall here.

As the former CEO of the largest hedge fund in the world, Bridgewater Associates, McCormick boasted about his company’s inclusiveness, which extended to full paid coverage for gender transition surgery and earned a perfect score as an LGBTQ-friendly workplace. McCormick also wrote at length about Bridgewater’s diversity and inclusion programs more broadly, which he took credit for spearheading and nurturing. Bridgewater’s website, which lists “the ability to be who you are” as one of its three “core values,” also showcased its diversity and inclusion programs, including transgender affirming groups. A dedicated diversity and inclusion team reported “directly to CEO David...

PHILADELPHIA — Maybe money really can’t buy everything. Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Kathy Barnette now appears to be running neck-and-neck with the two big-spending front-runners, Mehmet Oz and David McCormick, just days before the May 17 primary, according to a new poll. Barnette, a conservative commentator who has run a tireless campaign on a shoestring budget, had the support of 23.2% of likely GOP voters in the survey released late Sunday by the Republican Trafalgar Group. That put her right alongside Oz (24.5%) and McCormick (21.6%). Factoring in a margin of error of 3 percentage points, the poll suggests the...

Ray Dalio's Bridgewater Associates is doing far better in China than in the rest of the world.The $148 billion money manager raised about 900 million yuan ($136 million) for its second China fund in September, doubling assets, according to people familiar with the matter. Investors were partly drawn to its All Weather China strategy fund that boasted an annualized return of about 22% for the 22 months from inception to the end of July they said, declining to be identified discussing private matters.While the size of the onshore business remains tiny, the latest fundraising lifted assets under management to about...

“The U.S.-China relationship will be the most defining bilateral relationship for our lifetime,” David McCormick, the co-CEO of hedge fund powerhouse Bridgewater Associates and a former White House official, told a room at the Bloomberg Invest New York Conference on Tuesday. Speaking on the ongoing and increasingly hostile trade war between the world’s two largest economies, McCormick, a former U.S. Treasury undersecretary for international affairs under George W. Bush, warned that both the U.S. and China have “a lot of incentives” to reach a reasonable trade deal, but the latest developments in the negotiation are pushing things in the wrong...

Pennsylvania Republican candidate for U.S. Senate David McCormick said he has no hard feelings against former President Trump after the president verbally attacked him during Friday night’s rally, and vowed to continue to fight for American First policies and give Trump all the credit he deserves for pointing America in the right direction.

Trump painted McCormick as a “liberal Wall Street Republican” during Friday night’s rally and mentioned that the businessman “fought hard” for his endorsement. (snip) Trump then attacked McCormick for his comments about Trump’s involvement in the January 6 Capitol riots, in which he said Trump “has some responsibility, a lot of responsibility.” “David came out very strongly against me on numerous occasions. This was before he was going to run all of a sudden, he said, ‘Boy, I like this guy a lot.’ Including with respect to the disinformation spread about January 6, total disinformation,” Trump said. Trump added McCormick...

Ten days after a Trafalgar Poll showed Kathy Barnette running an unusually close third in the Republican primary for U.S. senator from Pennsylvania, talk and support have been mounting for the TV commentator whom few — if any — had given a chance against two multimillionaire front-runners. Last week, Sen. Joni Ernst issued a surprise endorsement for Barnette — one of two women in the six-candidate primary for the seat of retiring GOP Sen. Pat Toomey and the only contender who is Black. Iowa Republican Ernst, vice-chairman of the Senate Republican Conference and a conservative stalwart, is considered a promising...

The reaction by some to Donald Trump’s endorsement of Dr. Mehmet Oz in the U.S. Senate race in Pennsylvania seems a bit over the top. I mean, I get it on some levels: Oz isn’t great on the issues, isn’t a conservative rockstar (as if Pennsylvania produces any), and is an unknown commodity in electoral politics (see Trump, Donald J., circa 2015). But everyone needs to take a deep breath and understand that Oz is 10 times better than former hedgefund CEO Dave McCormick. And in Trump’s mind, maybe 50 times better.

*** In a field of big names with tenuous connections to the Keystone State, Bartos calls himself “a lifelong Pennsylvanian” with pride. He’s fairly quick to criticize several of his higher profile opponents as “political tourists who have parachuted into Pennsylvania.” “While I’ve been fighting for Pennsylvania, they’ve been fighting each other.” His roots in the state gave the Bartos campaign an early leg-up in February when he won a series of regional straw polls by Republican committee members. A RealClear Politics poll released earlier this month showed Bartos fourth in the field of seven, with businessman and former George...

Joe Biden is lying about his 2011 dealings with Vladimir Putin in Moscow, and the Russian president isn’t putting up with it. I know this because I was an eyewitness to the events of that day. Events that Washington, D.C.’s media have failed to press Biden on – and that give an extraordinary insight into how our now-president was humiliated by his Russian counterparts.
