Raffesnperger won his primary with 52% of the vote to prevent a runoff. Brian Kemp, who was booed at the state convention, surprisingly won his primary in Georgia after a rally with Mike Pence, by 74% to 22%. And on Tuesday, popular conservative and Trump supporter Vernon Jones — who just months ago would receive a rock star’s welcome at rallies — lost to his opponent Mike Collins. Vernon Jones lost his race 76% to 24%. So Georgia was a clean sweep against President Trump and his supporters. If we want to believe the numbers — Trump only has 24%...

@IAPolls2022 BREAKING: Mike Collins and Vernon Jones advance to primary runoff election in Georgia's 10th Congressional District: @AP_Politics

Former state Rep. Vernon Jones, a conservative Democrat-turned-Republican running for Congress in Georgia, labeled the Democratic Party “the most extreme organization in the world” as he recalled the party’s support for slavery and the Ku Klux Klan, as well as its current attacks on law enforcement and “independent think[ing].” In a video posted Thursday, Jones blasted the Democratic Party after President Joe Biden attacked MAGA — the acronym for former President Donald Trump’s campaign slogan “Make America Great Again.”

Former state Rep. Vernon Jones is narrowly leading his closest competitor, trucking company owner Mike Collins, in the Republican primary race for U.S. Congress in Georgia’s Tenth District, according to an internal poll obtained by Breitbart News. The poll, conducted by Remington Research Group from April 10 to 11, found Jones four points ahead of Collins. Jones received 20 percent support compared to Collins’ 16 percent, while a plurality of respondents, 25 percent, said they were undecided. Former Tenth District Rep. Paul Broun came in third at 15 percent, followed by state Rep. Tim Barr at seven percent and a...

During the segment, Jones discussed nominating President Trump for Speaker of the House after the red wave that is going to occur in the midterms this year. Vernon Jones: “When we take Congress in 2022 I will be nominating and voting for Donald Trump to be the Speaker. And once the Senate confirms impeachment and throws out Kamala Harris and Joe Biden then President Trump will be the President of the United States.” Once Trump is Speaker, he will introduce articles of impeachment for Joe Biden AND Kamala Harris which, if passed, would make DJT the President of the United...

Former Georgia state Rep. Vernon Jones (R) announced Monday he's dropping out of the race for Georgia governor, saying he will instead run for Congress, after former President Donald Trump reportedly offered to endorse Jones if he abandoned his bid for governor.

The Atlanta Jewish Times has removed an op-ed by a black conservative activist and former Georgia state legislator who has appeared at events also attended by controversial right-wing figures. The piece by Vernon Jones was titled “How one Jewish family shaped my views: Vernon Jones recalls the family that inspired him to speak up for Jewish Americans.” It was removed from the newspaper’s website on Wednesday night after a Jewish staffer for Stacey Abrams, the prominent voting rights activist in Georgia, called it “disgusting” on Twitter. “Literally during the Days of Awe, @AtlJewishTimes is platforming a far-right extremist who held...

Top Georgia Republicans fear infighting stoked by former President Donald Trump is poised to upend party efforts to defend the governor’s mansion and recapture a crucial Senate seat. As Trump ally Herschel Walker moves toward a Senate bid that would pair him with Gov. Brian Kemp, a foe of the former president, at the top of the ticket, Republicans worry that the party is on track to field a divided 2022 slate. Walker has publicly chastised Kemp over his handling of the 2020 election, echoing Trump’s complaints — criticism that the governor rejects. Those differences could make working together near...

VIDEOIt was an extremely dramatic and amazing encounter when gubernatorial candidate Vernon Jones turned the tables on a CNN reporter in Georgia on the subject of that state's election laws. However, just as amazing is the fact that the CNN reporter was holding a FOX mic. Specifically an Atlanta FOX 5 mic. WHY? I checked on the reporter whose name is Devon Sayers and he is indeed a CNN senior field producer based at the CNN headquarters in Atlanta. Okay but that still doesn't answer the question. WHY WAS HE HOLDING A FOX MIC???

Vernon Jones addressed a CNN reporter who was trying to harass President Trump’s attorney Rudy Giuliani in Georgia. This was total destruction. Jones said to the CNN reporter: Jones: I’ll ask you, was the drop off boxes used in 2020 elections? Was it? Was it used in the 2020 election? Now be as bold as you were bold asking Giuliani a question. I’m asking you now – did – were the drop off boxes used? Let’s put the camera on him. Let’s put the camera on him. (puts his arm around reporter) Now was the drop off boxes used? (silence)...

Donald Trump is celebrating following news that one of the swampiest Republicans in the country will not be seeking re-election. "He was the one who, along with Governor Brian Kemp, stopped the Georgia State Senate from doing the job they wanted to do on the 2020 Presidential Election Fraud. Duncan's fight against Election Fraud made him unelectable. His former top aide, Chip Lake, said that the Lieutenant Governor would not win another term in office. Lake said, 'I think he was an accident, and this is what happens when accidents happen in politics. They become one and done,'" he added....

Vernon Jones is closing the gap with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp in the nascent Republican gubernatorial primary ahead of next year's elections, according to polling obtained by The Hill. An internal poll commissioned by Jones’s campaign and conducted by the GOP firm Remington Research Group shows Kemp with a narrow 39 percent to 35 percent lead over Jones among likely Republican primary voters, putting him just slightly outside the survey’s 3 percentage point margin of error. There are signs that Jones has room to grow his support further. Twenty-six percent of respondents said they are still undecided in the race,...

Former Georgia State Representative and lifelong Democrat who made national headlines last year when he had declared his support for President Donald Trump’s re-election, announced on Twitter Monday that he is “looking closely at Georgia’s race for Governor” to oust Governor Brian Kemp. “I’m looking closely at Georgia’s race for Governor. If it weren’t for Brian Kemp, Donald Trump would still be President of these United States. We need courageous conservatives leading our state, not those afraid to stand up to the Radical Left,” Mr. Jones, the founder of Waking Up America expressed.. Most recently, Vernon Jones hinted at the...

Vernon Jones, a black former Democrat and supporter of President Trump, published an op-ed in which he explains why he switched to the Republican party. Jones officially announced his party switch in early January, stating that the Democrat party had changed, not him. “I am no longer a Democrat,” he said. “I cannot stand for the defunding of the police, higher taxes on working families, and job-killing socialist policies that will devastate Americans of all walks of life.” Jones accused his former party of dragging Americans down through “a false narrative based on race-baiting, identity politics, and widespread propaganda fed...

Vernon Jones @RepVernonJones Moments ago, I announced that I am officially joining the Republican Party. Now more than ever, the Republican Party is in desperate need of leaders that know how to fight. I know how to fight. 10:09 AM · Jan 6, 2021·Twitter for iPhone

President Trump's commitment to the African-American community is "unparalleled to any other president, Democrat or Republican, in the past 50 years," Georgia Democratic lawmaker Vernon Jones told "Special Report" Friday. "Four years ago he [Trump] talked about what he wanted to do for the Black community and he brought about results," Jones told host Bret Baier. "Opportunity zone districts, support of historically Black colleges, and prison reform with the First Step Act." "President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden did not have a plan for African-Americans," Jones said later. "President Obama meant a lot to Black people but he didn't...

Black Lives Matter protesters accosted Georgia State Rep. Vernon Jones, a Democrat, as he left the White House to walk to his hotel after President Donald Trump’s acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention (RNC) Thursday night. The group of protesters shouted obscenities at Jones and the woman accompanying him. Some recognized him from his speech at the RNC and demanded that he say the name of Breonna Taylor, who was killed by police in Louisville.

Last week, we watched as Joe Biden and his increasingly radical party outlined their dark perception of the country. They offered few policies and no solutions. Their message boiled down to America is evil and rotten to the core, and Trump is a fascist who represents an existential “threat to our democracy.” The Democrats also called Trump a racist, accused him of culpability for every single COVID-19 death in the country, and for the economic contraction that has led to a 10 percent unemployment rate. As if the well-documented failures of the Postal Service over the last several decades have...
