FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 25, 2020) --- New Hampshire Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin will hold a Manchester news conference Saturday, July 25th to disclose who he believes is “Q” of QAnon. Andy will also take the Digital Soldier Oath.

“I am not embracing 100% of QAnon,” Andy says. “But I am willing to look at issues on a case-by-case basis. I do believe there is a ‘Deep State,’ or whatever you want to call it. I believe a lot of information is being withheld from the public in an attempt to defeat President Trump for reelection. Only last week did we learn of damaging new data from the FBI. Why did it take 3-1/2 years for the public to learn of the Comey/Mueller conspiracy? What is still being concealed, 100 days before the election?

“I am a lifelong investigator; I want to know everything there is to know. I am perfectly capable of separating fact from fiction. As a senator, I would be a leading investigator in conducting congressional oversight.”

“In my earlier statement last week, I provided a detailed explanation of the QAnon belief system. No one has challenged my analysis. Saturday’s news conference is a follow-up.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 22, 2020)  

Dear Granite State Voter:

The QAnon movement is largely a mystery. Except that it is not. The Republican Party has been challenged by QAnon supporters. QAnon believers are clearly becoming part of the party “base,” but they are not acknowledged as a movement within the GOP.

The liberal media have taken notice. The New York Times ran an extensively-researched article. (Please see Link [1] below.) The Atlantic conducted an extensive investigation. (Please see Link [2} below.) And after a congressional candidate in Colorado toppled an incumbent, the QAnon link was noted. (Please see link [3] below.)

Liberal media call QAnon a “conspiracy theory.” In part it is. But it is also a rapidly organizing movement that could form the initial citizens’ resistance to the Democrats if President Trump is defeated for reelection.

While QAnon is not a conspiracy theory – it is much to elaborate and complex to be a simple theory – it is a coherent belief system. Belief systems have at least three levels. First, they usually have a factual basis for the beliefs. Second, there is conjecture and speculation surrounding the beliefs. Finally, there are myths that grow around and provide s surrounding layer for the facts and conjectures.

Republicans are of two minds. President Trump has retweeted QAnon postings. But QAnon-themed clothing is not allowed at his rallies. (Please see Link [4] below.)

I don’t think the Republican Party nationally has an official position on QAnon, but as congressional candidates win primaries and appear on the ballot, there is increasing media scrutiny.

QAnon involves a series of interlocking facts and conjectures, including the existence of the “Deep State” and an international pedophile ring among other allegations. QAnon is drawing international attention. Hollywood is under attack.(Please see link [6] below.)

And there is also an element of hokey, Boy Scouterism involved. Recently “Q” issued a “digital solder oath.” Candidates have taken the oath and General Michael Flynn recently “took the
oath” as well.

Because of my decades-long investigative background, and my exposure of Barack Obama’s lies, I am constantly asked, “Who is Q?” In a very loose sense, QAnon can be seen as an inevitable outgrowth of the Obama campaign and Obama’s enduring legacy. There were masses of “conspiracy theories” about Obama. Most were untrue. But some were true. I never published a false fact about Obama. Indeed, it was my fact-based investigation of the Illinois state senator, whom I first encountered in Springfield, that irritated him the most. He could not dismiss me as, of course, a “conspiracy theorist.”

When I began investigating Obama in 2004 almost nothing was known about the man. I issued a prophetic proclamation in August, 2004 exposing his lies. (Please see link [5] below.) My investigative work became the Rosetta Stone for other authors who looked into Obama’s murky truths. And so, the fact that QAnon evenly morphed out of the anti-Obama movement does not surprise me.

To be clear, I do not deal in or traffic in conspiracy theories. I am not a supporter of QAnon, although the digital soldier oath may be a different matter. But I have been exceptionally successful over the decades in separating fact from fiction, and I am doing a deep dive into QAnon. There are facts behind the QAnon movement and there is an underlying basis for the adherents to Q. But there are other aspects of the movement that are not fact-based. I will do my best to separate fact from fiction.

My current primary is bizarre. One of my primary opponents manifests unstable and irrational behavior. The other one is a phony and crook. So, I could end up as the Republican nominee for the U. S. Senate. Would I be a QAnon supporter? You’ll have to wait and see.

We have a follow-up event scheduled for this coming Saturday in Manchester. Stay tuned.

Sincerely,

Andy

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says that left-wing demands for a boycott of Goya Foods have prompted a backlash from Americans who are supporting the Latino foods company

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 20, 2020)  

Dear Granite State Voter:

When I signed on as a U. S. Senate candidate I never expected to be writing about beans, a hill of beans, pinto beans, garbanzo beans, kidney beans. But then I underestimated the stupidity of Sandy Cortez of Westchester County, a/k/a Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of the Bronx, and her fellow traveler former presidential candidate Julian Castro. They are dumb.

The chief executive of Goya Foods, the largest source for Latino cuisine in America (please see link [1] for details), visited the White House recently and praised President Trump. CEO Bob Unanue had previously visited President Obama without any outcry or even notice. But when Unanue extended a reciprocal courtesy to Trump, Ocasio-Cortez and Castro exploded with anger, calling for a boycott of Goya Foods (please see link [2] below). When the president, in response to the left’s boycott, displayed Goya Foods in the Oval Office, the media were quick to claim an “ethics violation” had occurred (please see link [3] below). The ethics attack was complete nonsense.

In my many writings I do not usually list or discuss my grocery purchases. But last week I bought Goya products as part of the “buy-cott” organized by supporters of the Goya Company. I do not believe I ever purchased Goya products before; I am not much of a cook and know little about Latino foods. I grew up in a Greek household and so I gravitate to Greek recipes with, of course, a healthy supply of regular American cuisine (roast beef was on the menu Sunday and occasional junk food). Not surprisingly, I am on a diet.

But I had to make a statement in support of Goya. Every time we have a business person make a few remarks about our president, we can’t have leftist crazies demand that the business executive’s firm be destroyed. It’s insane. Businesses should be welcome visitors at the White House.

Goya Foods is an incredible success story. It began with a small grocery started by immigrants (link [1]). It remains a family-owned firm. The success of Goya Foods should not be controversial or political in any rational universe. Visits by executives to the White House should also be nonpartisan.

But the “cancel culture” being spread by extreme leftists means that every incident, no matter how small, must be escalated into a war against President Trump. Every contact becomes a launching pad for vitriol against the president. Ocasio-Cortez and Castro and their supporters should be ashamed of themselves.

I don’t always agree with President Trump. But I usually ignore the “small stuff” and reflect on the fact he has done an incredible job for the nation. Ironically, on the way to an expected reelection, earlier this year he was betrayed by the Chinese Communist regime that spread its disease into the United States and around the world for the umpteenth time in the past half century. The left’s Goya attacks do not amount to a hill of beans.


Joe Biden actually says it best: Don’t compare him to the almighty; compare him to the alternative. Likewise, I would compare Trump to the alternative, but there isn’t any. Biden regrettably is a mere shadow of himself, and the Democratic Party he seeks to lead no longer exists. Polls which “support” Biden are a complete fraud. Those polled know virtually nothing about Biden. Biden is a chimera.

And so, we start where we began, with a hill of beans. Goya beans. They sell a lot of different varieties.

There probably won’t be any civility between now and November. Nancy Pelosi is becoming increasingly unhinged. The president is subject to the most relentless media attacks I have ever seen, and I will write more about them tomorrow.

But, by buying a few Goya products, and trying out those you like and maybe don’t like, you could respond to the cancel culture of the extreme left that won’t stop rest until it has completely undermined our common heritage and common social norms. How about it? “Go Goya!”

God bless the Goya company. I hope they are even more prosperous as a result of being unfairly pilloried by the “dumbsters” Ocasio-Cortez and Castro. Reasonable people can disagree about some of President Trump’s decisions; but his welcome of the Goya CEO to the White House, and the CEO’s response, is not one of them.

Sincerely,

Andy

After the Washington Post awards Don Bolduc’s campaign “two Pinocchios” for seeking to mislead and defraud the public, New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says it is time for Bolduc to withdraw as a candidate for Senator

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 15, 2020)  

Dear Granite State Voter:

It looks like Don Bolduc is the most incompetent, or devious, U. S. Senate candidate in New Hampshire history. When he announced his candidacy, I pointed out Bolduc used a convicted stock swindler to narrate his announcement. (Please see link [1] below.) Last year Bolduc suggested Senator Mitch McConnell’s operatives were supporting Bolduc. Where’s Mitch? Mitch dumped Bolduc like a hot potato. (More phony reporting form New Hampshire’s media.)

Earlier this year Bolduc showed a total lack of awareness of the Civil War, a fatal flaw for a retired soldier. (Please see link [2] blow.)

Now the Washington Post, using an exquisite distinction, has awarded two “Pinocchios” (liar’s points) to Bolduc’s “campaign” for using a video associating Bolduc with a military operation, the “Horse Soldiers,” when Bolduc never participated in that operation.

The “Horse Soldiers” were men who fought in northern Afghanistan; a movie was made about them. Bolduc was in southern Afghanistan. He was never part of the actual Horse Soldiers. Yet his campaign issued videos suggesting he was part of the group when he was not.

The Washington Post says Bolduc’s “campaign” has been trying to mislead voters about his service.

You can read the Washington Post for yourself (link [3]). No reasonable person can deny that Bolduc has allowed his “campaign” to mislead the media. In the military, fine distinctions between operations mean everything when it comes to claiming credit for service in actual battles. The men who landed on Normandy Beach on D-Day were unique. If you landed on Normandy Beach two days later, you could not say you landed on D-Day.

To be clear, and as I have said before, I honor Don’s service to the nation and admire him. I have been shot at and targeted in various war zones. I know what Don went through. But his honorable service is not a blank check to be a senate candidate. And no one can hide behind military service to commit campaign fraud as Bolduc’s “campaign” did. The Washington Post distinguished between lies made by Bolduc’s “campaign,” and lies by Bolduc himself. Voters will not make the same fine separation.

Bolduc has no idea how to be a candidate, or run a campaign. In some sense, I feel sorry for him. He is being misused by his supporters and advisers. I warned this would happen, and it is.

Here’s the sad part. Or the shocking part. Neither the Union Leader nor WMUR took notice of the embarrassing national story in the Washington Post exposing their professional gullibility and incompetence because they failed to report on Bolduc’s misleading campaign. The effort by the Union Leader to cover-up the UL’s own journalistic incompetence about Bolduc’s exaggerations speaks for itself about that newspaper’s failure as media.

WMUR’s John DiStaso merely shuffles press releases on his desk and computer; he rarely does any original reporting. DiStaso fell for the Bolduc’s “Campaign” fraud hook, line and sinker.

Can you trust New Hampshire’s home-grown media liars? Hell no. They do more to hide the truth than report it.

As I have said so often. New Hampshire’s media are a disgrace. Over and over again national media have had to come in to New Hampshire to expose local media fraud. Likewise, the efforts by a Bolduc supporter in the Union Leader, Brendan Finn, to rouge up Bolduc’s campaign dishonesty was an ongoing effort to mislead New Hampshire voters. It will not succeed.

Can Bolduc continue his campaign as a retired military hero when his “campaign” has now been exposed as a political fraud? Doubtful. Bolduc has refused to make a full disclosure of how the misleading images in his campaign videos, suggesting he was a Horse Soldier, were photoshopped. Bolduc’s refusal to make the producer of his campaign videos available for searching examination is circumstantial evidence he knows he has been caught in a fraud. But then he also had a convicted stock swindler as a narrator when he announced his candidacy (link [1] below). Bolduc hopes the scandal will blow over. It won’t.

There is a military term for what Bolduc did: stolen valor. Bolduc has a distinguished military career. Why exaggerate his record by claiming credit for an operation where he never served? Because for Don Bolduc, too much is never enough. He can tap dance around the topic all he wants, but he never was a Horse Soldier; his campaign video efforts to suggest he was do an injustice to the many people of New Hampshire who are supporting him. His “defense” claim now that they also used horses in southern Afghanistan is pathetic. They also used asses.

Don Bolduc should apologize and withdraw before he further embarrasses himself. Bolduc’s “campaign” has made Bolduc a later day “Tail Gunner Joe,” another senate candidate who exaggerated his military career.

Is Don Bolduc a serious candidate for the senate? Don’t make me laugh. Are New Hampshire’s media crooked and incompetent? Don’t make me cry.

For shame.

Sincerely,

Andy

P.S. We have more research on Bolduc to come out in the days ahead; we are behind schedule on our promised “Bolduc Week” exposés. You may be surprised by what we know; Bolduc will be embarrassed.

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says that President Trump’s endorsement of “Porky” “Corky” Messner, a convicted drunk driver, indicates that once again Trump was betrayed by his own insiders

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (July 8, 2020)  

Dear Granite State Voter:

“Colorado Corky,” a/k/a “Porky” Messner is a drunk driver. The media have ignored and not reported Messner’s drinking problem, with one exception, Tony Schinella of Patch.com (please see Link [1] below).

Am I just airing dirty linen by writing these remarks? Not by a long shot. I will connect up the dots so you see where I am coming from and where I am going. Media corruption and political incompetence and corruption are endemic in New Hampshire.

First, I will show you how President Donald Trump was betrayed by his closest advisers in the White House.

Second, I will explain how the corrupt “Fake News” New Hampshire media will work in concert with the Democratic Party if Messner wins the primary. John DiStaso of WMUR and Kevin Landrigan of the Union leader are puppets of the New Hampshire Democratic Party.

Third, I will produce a list of questions for President Trump to ask Messner before Trump highlights Messner at next Saturday’s Trump rally. Tragically, Trump is almost certainly setting himself up to lose New Hampshire by ham-handedly intervening in the September primary, as I have suggested before.

Trump the non-drinker:

President Trump does not drink, not socially, not “just a little,” not just at all. So, for Trump, alcohol abuse is a serious matter, almost a phobia. A brother died from alcoholism. It left a lasting scar on the president.

1. President Trump the dupe and Messner the Drunk Driver

     a. Trump was betrayed by his own staff

          If someone had walked into the president’s office and asked if he was willing to endorse a wealthy candidate he didn’t know, in a state he had to win, but the candidate had a drunk driving conviction in his past, what would Trump have said? Probably “Hell No.”

But Trump’s staff maneuvered and engineered the fateful endorsement of Messner because Trump is easily and often fooled by his “advisers” where political matters are concerned. Trump has the weakest political operation of any president in recent history. That is why he regularly makes decisions and issues tweets that jeopardize his own reelection. So, Trump was played by his insiders, and now he is stuck with a drunk driver as a candidate he has endorsed and who can only cost him votes in New Hampshire if Porky Corky wins the primary. Sad. My guess: someone somewhere along the pipeline got paid off to get Trump’s endorsement.

     b. Messner’s drunk driving is a legitimate issue

          Almost no one who is arrested for drunk driving has had only “one too many” on only one occasion. By the time you are driving drunk outside the white lines on a street, the way Messner was, you have a serious alcohol problem. Drunk drivers do not suddenly appear, and then disappear after a single arrest. They usually get smarter and may insulate themselves from their alcohol abuse by using chauffeurs, designated drivers and car services. But they are doing so because they drink too much to be safe on the road.

Messner has apologized and said he only got arrested once. Good for him. But we are not concerned with his alcohol “bust;” rather, we are concerned with whether he is a candidate whom the Fake News media, DiStaso and Landrigan, will blow up just before the election to reelect Jeanne Shaheen.

2. Media whores in New Hampshire are Democratic Party puppets
         
     a. Am I exaggerating? Hell no!

          In 2000, just before the presidential election, the media ginned up an old drunk driving charge against Governor George W. Bush, please see Link [2] below. The Bush drunk driving matter was 25 years old. Messner’s drunk driving conviction? Almost twenty-five years ago. The Bush drunk driving kerfuffle is almost a template for 2020.

Do New Hampshire Democrats use old mud to smear candidates in 2020? You betcha. Please see Link [3] below. They are already doing it. They are masters of the craft.

     b. Local New Hampshire media corruption

          In 2016, I exposed before the September primary that a Republican candidate for congress in the Second District was a fraud. DiStaso and Landrigan held back my information until just before the November election, when they suddenly “discovered” my research and exposed/defeated the GOP candidate.

While the Union Leader pretends to be a “conservative” newspaper, it hasn’t been conservative since the end of Loeb family ownership. The current owners have to exist in an increasingly liberal, if not leftist, New Hampshire and so the owners and writers at the Union Leader accommodate the needs of the state Democratic Party.

WMUR is owned by the liberal descendants of the original “Fake News” publisher, William Randolph Hearst, and they are a bunch of liberal trust fund babies. WMUR is immensely profitable, unlike the Union Leader. WMUR’s Manchester employees follow diktats from their liberal midtown-New York bosses.

The state Republican Party’s leadership has been living in the past, when Republicans really ran the state; often leaders are not aware they are being “played” by the local media. But Democrats keep winning and Republicans keep losing and on and on it goes.

New Hampshire’s print media are either dead or dying; in such a state corruption always seeps in to prolong the survival of a newspaper.

DiStaso and Landrigan are obviously aware of Schinella’s story. But they are pretending the Patch story does not exist. Then, when Democrats unveil Messner’s drunk driving charge in October, WMUR and the Union Leader will report Messner’s conviction as “news.”

3. What questions should President Trump ask Messner before showcasing his toxic “endorsement” next Saturday?

Trump questions to Messner:

     a. What is your current level of alcohol consumption?

     b. Did you ever attend or seek assistance for an alcohol or substance abuse problem?

     c. Did you ever attend Alcoholics Anonymous?

     d. Have you ever used a car service or “designated driver” (not yourself) when you were attending an event where alcohol is served?

     e. Are there people in Colorado, where you live, who are potential witnesses to your drinking habits? (Andy Martin will be investigating.)

The Bottom Line:

If Messner wins the primary, he will be exposed by the Fake News media, and he will in all probability take President Trump’s campaign down with Messner’s own loss. Messner is a ticking time bomb, and he will be exploded when the Democrats want him to explode. It is as straightforward as that.

Because Trump’s ill-advised endorsement of Messner undermined Don Bolduc’s campaign and credibility, I have said Bolduc is a “carcass, not a candidate.” But with his drunk driving conviction, Messner is also a dead man walking in the days before the November election.

I am the only candidate with the political experience to smash back at the Democrats and take on Shaheen. That is why DiStaso and Landrigan follow their Democratic marching orders to constantly undermine my campaign. DiStaso and Landrigan will try their darndest to nominate a Republican loser and reelect Shaheen. Wait and see.

Sincerely,

Andy
