About to go vote and I’m looking at this card from the pack. Fleming is a fraud, but digging into their statements it looks like it’s a hack together hatchet job.

Letlow is a far left commies.


The bus is an AI hit piece.

Why are all of her ads outrageous stories about Fleming instead of her accomplishments since she was given a congressional seat???

Letlo only used part of what the man said, which both of them did in their ads and which I think is b*******.I don't wanna vote for either 1 ro tell you the truth, because they've been so nasty, but he just talked about busing people in to pick crops, keeping control of them, and bringing them back across the border without letting them stay here for any longer than it took to do the jobs that Americans won.'t do.

“We don’t have enough illegal aliens…. Why not provide a transportation program where they’re bussed across the border?”

The way that’s written, has my Spidey sense up. Like they cut off his first sentence specifically

The second sentence he could just as easily be talking about posting them from the US back to Mexico as opposed to the implied Mexico into the US.

Something like that is what I generally expected his statement to be about, but they clipped it in such a way to make it look damning. I had not seen the candidate forum speech they lifted it from, so wasn’t sure.

Letlow’s shadowy hit ads against Fleming appear to be fantastically false. All anonymous claims.

It’s always a pain in the arse to try to pick out these parsings….

“Nobody should ever say ‘I shot the sheriff’’“ gets turned into “I shot the sheriff”

It was from sometime around 2008 - 2010 when he was first elected to the House. He was giving a speech about migrant workers AND illegals.

He was making a point that a big driver for illegals coming in was the lack of domestic workers and that because of that we needed to push for the allowance of more migrant (read: legal) workers. He got his words mixed up, and right after the commercial's clip ends he corrects himself and everyone snickers at his faux pas.

But then the full context of the statement wouldn't allow for outrage votes from the blind followers. FB link to the full context video

Fleming did say this. Then immediately corrected himself in the next sentence and clarified that he meant migrant farm worker, not illegal aliens.

That’s perfect thanks. I figured it had to be a clipped up hit job, but had not ever seen the original.

My question is can Letlow talk?

After watching all her ads, I have yet to hear her speak,

Anyone who looks at political campaign ads as anything but propaganda is either extremely naive or extremely dumb, to be blunt. I believe less than half, at best, of what these ads present as the truth.

Don’t fall for the Letlow Derangement Syndrome. She is my representative and has always been responsive when I called on her office. Don’t understand the hate and viciousness in this runoff. I voted for Julia but I’m not mad at anyone voting for Fleming.

I’ll take either as they’re getting Cassidy out of there which is number one.

But for the life of me, I don’t understand why you pull shite like those flyers I got when they’re almost complete fabrications.

I mean, why even feel like you have to do that sort of thing?

Fleming isn’t for illegal immigration. It’s a lie from the DEI Queen and the Landry machine.

It was also from 20 years ago- way before the open borders policy of the left
