Manchester News Conference: New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin will hold a Manchester News Conference Sunday, August 2nd to demand that Bryant “Corky” Messner withdraw as a candidate to avoid further embarrassment to the New Hampshire GOP; the Washington Post has exposed Messner’s bogus “Messner Foundation”

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin will hold a Manchester news conference Sunday, August 2nd to demand that Porky Messner withdraw as a U. S. Senate candidate. “Messner’s latest scandal, a bogus foundation that awarded one scholarship in ten (10) years, while donating to a school where Messner’s children attended, is probably a tax fraud but it is certainly a charity fraud,” Andy says. “During the past several months we have collected a series of scandals involving Messner, and we haven’t even started really digging yet. But Messner’s phony ‘scholarship’ foundation scandal is the worst, because at a minimum it skirts IRS law and at worst it reflects Messner’s contempt for inner city youth. Messner is a disgrace, and embarrassment to the New Hampshire GOP. He is a sitting duck for the Democrats.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (August 2, 2020) --- New Hampshire Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin will hold a Manchester news conference Sunday, August 2 to demand that Bryant “Porky” Messner withdraw as a senate candidate due to Messner’s latest financial scandal with his “Messner Foundation.”

“The Washington Post has done an exhaustive investigation of the so-called ‘Messner Foundation’” Andy says. “Messner’s foundation is a scam. (Please see link [1] below). Over the past several months we have accumulated a series of scandals about Messner, large and small, including his drunk driving conviction which I discussed several days ago (please see link [2] below).

“Why Messner thinks he can be a credible opponent for Jeanne Shaheen is beyond me. Perhaps because all of his financial trickery has made him a rich man, with a $45 million fortune, he thinks he can buy people in New Hampshire. But why did he come to New Hampshire to run when his business and home are in Colorado? Wyoming would have been a lot closer place for him to run.

“Is scandal-plagued Messner the candidate who New Hampshire Republicans really believe can defeat Shaheen? Shaheen has been wiping out Republican candidates for over 30 years. With all of his scams and scandals, Messner is simply not a credible candidate for U. S. Senate. Democrats are salivating at the prospect that a buffoon like Messner would be their senate opponent.

“Rather than go through the Washington Post story line by line, I think Republicans should click on the link below and read the facts for themselves.

“In closing, I have two major opponents, both of whom have shown they lack the experience to mount a serious campaign against Shaheen. Each has been found guilty of deceptive activity. They have no experience and they lack the ability to run against a well-entrenched incumbent. Bolduc and Messner are delusional.

“People know where I have been for the last decade, not in Colorado but right here in New Hampshire fighting corruption and working to enhance and Rebuild the Republican Party. I may not be everyone’s ‘favorite,’ but I do have the experience to run a serious campaign. The Chicago Tribune once called me an ‘absolutely brilliant campaigner,’ and I have only improved since then.

“Messner’s candidacy is a joke. Take away his $45 million and it would be laughable for him to run for senator from New Hampshire. Republicans say they want to defeat Shaheen. Then why are they encouraging a Colorado huckster to represent them? Why don’t they consider me, an experienced candidate whom everyone acknowledges as a hard-nosed campaigner with the tools to attack Shaheen relentlessly?

“Why is it that the most pertinent reporting about New Hampshire political scandals is coming out of Washington, DC? New Hampshire’s fake news media (Kevin Landrigan and John DiStaso) just print handouts from the candidates. They have not done any investigation of Bolduc or Messner.

“I can promise my GOP friends that August is going to be very ‘hot’ for my primary opponents. We have more scandals and investigations that even we can publish in five weeks. But we will bring the truth to the Granite State, even if the local media refuse to do so.

“After the latest embarrassment of the ‘Messner Foundation,’ how can any Republican in good faith and with a straight face continue to endorse Messner’s candidacy?” Andy asks.

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

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says one of his primary opponents, former General Don Bolduc, must withdraw as a candidate to save New Hampshire Republicans from further embarrassment. The Washington Post exposed on July 9^th that Bolduc’s “campaign” had created misleading video suggestions that Bolduc was one of the “Horse Soldiers” in Afghanistan, when that was not true. “Bolduc’s campaign has been a train wreck since he announced,” Andy says. “The finding that his ‘campaign’ deserves ‘two Pinocchios’ for misleading campaign videos that suggested Bolduc was part of a specific military operation, the Horse Soldiers, when he was not, is a campaign killer for the ailing general.” Andy says the Bolduc campaign fraud also exposes the corruption and incompetence of the Union Leader newspaper and the Hearst-owned WMUR-TV, who failed to report on Bolduc’s exaggerations.

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

New Hampshire U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin exposes how President Trump, who abhors alcohol, was induced to “endorse” a candidate in the September primary, “Porky” “Corky” Messner, despite the fact that Messner has a history of drunk driving. Andy explains how the corrupt “Fake News” media of New Hampshire have withheld the Messner story so they can use it to defeat Messner if he wins the primary. “The media in New Hampshire are Democratic Party stooges and pro-Jeanne Shaheen in November,” Andy says. “Using decades-old alcohol problems to tarnish Republicans is a tried and true Democratic strategy. Trump is endangering his reelection and doesn’t even know it. Someone should ask Trump on Saturday in Portsmouth why he would endorse a candidate with a drunk driving conviction.”

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

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

(MANCHESTER, NH) (June 8, 2020) --- New Hampshire Republican U. S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says his primary opponents are treacherous, anti-Trump candidates and he promises to expose them in a series of news releases over the next three weeks. “As a young law student, I started in Illinois politics fighting the Crime Syndicate-influenced Democratic Party; I helped send many of them to federal prison. When it comes to fighting for public integrity, I have a long-established track record of being a tough corruption fighter (see www.andymartin.com for details).

“A few days ago, one of the GranuiteGrok.com editors posted a jibe at my claim of ‘experience’ to be a formidable senate candidate. I actually read the Grok, and often get ideas from their work, but their persistent support for losing candidates speaks for itself.

“Here are some undisputed facts from recent New Hampshire politics:

“In 2011, I exposed that Jennifer Horn, who had run for congress as a young conservative, was transitioning into a liberal Democrat. Horn supported Barack Obama and attacked my well-received book exposing Obama’s lies. I warned New Hampshire Republicans – this is 2011, mind you - that Horn was not to be trusted any longer as a conservative.

“In 2013 I opposed Horn’s election as state chairman because she had engaged in tax fraud during her own congressional primaries, by not paying withholding taxes. The IRS had a lien on her house. Horn refused to take a paying job to pay off her tax liens. Instead, Horn preferred to be an unpaid (?) Chairman of the state GOP. Very suspicious. I said Horn would be a disaster as chairman and would do incalculable damage to the party.

“In 2014 I opposed Horn’s recruitment of a Massachusetts resident to run for U. S. Senate. By reaching to Massachusetts, Horn sent a signal of weakness about New Hampshire Republicans. I exposed that Scott Brown had shamelessly inflated his military experiences. The few votes I cost Brown cost him the election. If he had not lied, Brown would be a senator today.

“In 2015 Jennifer Horn and Senator Kelly Ayotte attacked the only GOP congressman, Frank Guinta, because of Guinta’s possible violation of election law. Horn and Ayotte managed to destroy Guinta, but in the process Ayotte also destroyed her own reelection campaign as GOP voters rejected her. Horn and Ayotte fumbled away half the congressional delegation.

“In 2016 Horn began her latest anti-GOP travesty, becoming a leader of the ‘Never Trumpers.’ Today in 2020, as a ‘founder’ of the Lincoln Project Horn launches relentless attacks on the president. Is Trump perfect? Not by a New Hampshire country mile. But using Joe Biden’s own metric, ‘Compare me to the alternative, not the Almighty,’ there is no comparison between the enfeebled Biden and Trump. Yet Horn and her group of disgruntled Republicrats are determined to turn America over to extreme-left Democrats.

“My prediction in 2011 that Horn was becoming a Democrat was prophetic. Only New Hampshire Republican leaders were too dumb to see what was front of them, and made her state chairman. They have paid a horrible political price.

“In 2016, I exposed that the GraniteGrok-supported Jim Lawrence was a fraud. I reported that Lawrence was not a ‘small businessman’ because the state had shut down his business. Lawrence claimed to be a government expert but the government had banned him from bidding on contracts. And he had failed to pay taxes on his home. The Union Leader and WMUR used my research to defeat Lawrence and reelect an extreme Democrat to congress.

“In 2018, the party favorite was Andy Sanborn. Prior efforts by others to expose Sanborn had failed. After I entered the primary, I negotiated an agreement with the Attorney General, without even filing an RTK lawsuit, exposing secret state transcripts disclosing Sanborn’s sexual peccadilloes. Sanborn spent $1 million to be defeated. I did not spend a penny other than my filing fee to defeat him.

“So, to my friends at GraniteGrok, let me say, again, you have backed losing candidates who defrauded Republican voters. Why are you so opposed to me? Do you still ridicule my claim I am the most experienced candidate to run against Shaheen?

“If nominated, I will do to Shaheen what I have repeatedly done to my primary opponents. Expose her corruption and target her for defeat.

“All I have asked the Republican Party to do is stay neutral in primaries, as required by the party’s bylaws. In 2018, party leaders created endless roadblocks to hamstring my campaign and to deprive me of an honest election. They paid the price.

“I call my current opponents ‘Dumb’ and ‘Dumber,’ although on any given day it is difficult to decide who is the ‘Dumbest.’ They are worthless candidates propelled by vanity and little else.

“This month I launch a series of ‘weeks’ to expose the Republican Party’s leadership corruption and incompetence (see below). There is serious circumstantial evidence that my primary opponents are Democratic Party sympathizers and saboteurs. I will set forth my analysis and facts, and let GOP voters decide for themselves. But based on my track record of nailing fraudulent candidates, could anyone claim I lack the ‘experience’ to do so? Over to you, GraniteGrok.”

Projected list of campaign disclosures (these dates are aspirational and may slip by a day or two):

Week of June 15:

“Bolduc Week,” a series of five exposures on Bolduc

Week of June 25:

“Messner Week,” a series of four disclosures about “Porky” Messner

Week of July 2 (this may slip slightly because of the holiday):

“NHGOP week,” exposing the New Hampshire GOP leadership’s refusal to hold honest and impartial primaries. Does anyone really believe the GOP remains a serious statewide opponent for the New Hampshire Democrat ‘Machine’ today?”
