"Comey played along with the Obama fix for HRC. 1 of 2." @AndrewCMcCarthy @ThadMcCotter https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/04/comey-confirms-in-clinton-emails-caper-the-fix-was-in/

That was fast. Top Michigan Republicans decided to support former state Sen. Nancy Cassis (R) as their consensus write-in candidate for the 11th district GOP ballot. A cadre of top local GOP leaders met again this morning to discuss potential candidates and settled on Cassis out of a handful of write-in hopefuls who expressed interest. The decision follows a hectic couple of days for the local GOP since Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich.) dropped his own write-in bid Saturday after failing to make the Aug. 7 primary ballot. There’s one Republican on the primary ballot, reindeer rancher Kerry Bentivolio, but GOP...

Michigan's attorney general has charged four of former U.S. Rep. Thaddeus McCotter's campaign staffers in an investigation into fake and duplicate signatures on nominating petitions. Attorney General Bill Schuette announced charges Thursday ranging from forgery and conspiracy to falsely signing election documents.

(Bill Clark/CQ Roll Call File Photo) Michigan Republican Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, who ran a quixotic presidential bid and then failed to get enough signatures to appear on the GOP ballot for his 6th term, announced late today he had resigned from office. “Today I have resigned from the office of United States Representative for Michigan’s 11th Congressional District,” he said in a statement sent out by his campaign. “After nearly 26 years in elected office, this past nightmarish month and a half have, for the first time, severed the necessary harmony between the needs of my constituency and of my...

GOP Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (Mich.) resigned on Friday, citing the effects a “nightmarish” month and half has had on his family. “After nearly 26 years in elected office, this past nightmarish month and a half have, for the first time, severed the necessary harmony between the needs of my constituency and of my family,” McCotter wrote in a statement. “As this harmony is required to serve, its absence requires I leave.”

Folks, Link only @ YouTube as Kerry Bentivolio addresses the Rattle With Us Tea Party Group in Plymouth Michigan. The word I hear on the street is he went over bigger than his EGOP opponent, ( Whose video is also on You-Tube ). Note, this is the district of Thaddeus McCotter and post his registration to run mess-up, this will need to be a write-in vote.

Folks, Link only...http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20120612/METRO/206120375/1409/metro/Bentivolio-wows-Cassis-woos-tea-party-crowdRead the article. It was talked about as well yesterday on "Thayrone X's" program ( 1600 am WAAM ), and the flavor is Cassis seems to be an establishment plug-in as noted in the article.If so, and Bentivolio is the real deal, is this someone "Sarah" can get behind?

Rep. Thaddeus McCotter will run a write-in campaign for the GOP nomination after botching the signature requirement to make the Congressional ballot in Michigan.

LANSING, MI -- Michigan Congressman Thaddeus McCotter said late Friday he has been told that he may not have turned in enough valid voter signatures to qualify for the August primary ballot. "I have been apprised my campaign may have submitted insufficient petition signatures to appear on the August primary ballot as a candidate for the 11th Congressional District's Republican nomination."

On September 12, the pioneering Rep. Thaddeus McCotter introduced trailblazing legislation providing workers the freedom to choose personal savings and investment accounts to finance half of their future Social Security benefits. This legislation would completely solve the future Social Security financing problem, without cutting benefits or raising taxes, as officially scored by the Chief Actuary of Social Security. Indeed, because standard, long-term market investment returns are so much higher than what Social Security even promises, workers with personal accounts will enjoy higher rather than lower benefits. Moreover, the legislation would result in the greatest reduction in government spending in world...

What you missed because of the Media's exclusion of Thad McCotter

Thursday that he is dropping out of the 2012 presidential race. McCotter, who struggled to gain traction against better-financed rivals and failed to achieve the necessary support to be invited to Republican debates, announced that he would now support former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney in the Republican primary.

One of the deans of Conservative columnists says Thad McCotter SHOULD be in the debates.

Suppose a Republican Presidential Candidate introduces legislation to REFORM SOCIAL SECURITY and the media didn't cover it.

Thad McCotter unveiled his SAVE SOCIAL SECURITY plan today at the Heritage Foundation.

The Great DeflationWe must address the clear and present threat to our economy. Our prosperity stands on the precipice. Concerned Americans demand an explanation of how this happened and leadership that will walk us back from the cliff. But in the White House and along the campaign trail, the purported leaders fail to recognize or refuse to acknowledge the clear and present threat to our economy: the Great Deflation. The failure to differentiate between an economic recession and this Great Deflation will cause an economically doomed generation. But this need not happen. The strength of our economy — its capacity...

Former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) slammed his competitors for the GOP presidential nomination Thursday evening, accusing them of mishandling the debt-ceiling debate. Santorum singled out Reps. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), Ron Paul (R-Texas) and Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich.), three House members also running for president. "They didn't do what needed to be done; we needed to balance the budget. We need to limit the size and scale of government. They kicked the can down the road," he said on Fox News. "We've got three members of Congress who want to run for president, who are out there talking about how they're going...

Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (Mich.), a Republican presidential candidate, called Saturday morning for Republicans and the Tea Party to stop fighting and work together to help save the country, presumably from Democratic policies, although he was not specific. "On the right, take note," McCotter said on the House floor. "It is as unwarranted and injurious for a Republican to call a Tea Partier a hobbit as it is for a Tea Partier to call a Republican a RINO."McCotter was referring to a comment earlier this month from Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), who compared Tea Partiers to hobbits. That sparked rebukes from...
