Crazy Fraudster Rebekah Jones RAN FOR CONGRESS????
And the Democratic National Committee didn't detect her serial lies and crimes???
Sometimes - OK, rarely, OK this is a first - I get something valuable from Twitter. Today I saw someone moaning that Rep. Matt Gaetz of south Florida beat Rebekah Jones, the Democrat candidate. What blew me away was twofold. One, she is not in prison already. Two, she won 40% of the vote!!!
How is that remotely possible?
Other people have their examples of the destruction of America. It’s a fun hobby, pointing out something or someone in the culture and muttering about how everything is going to Hell in a handbasket. This crazy grifter is my canary in civilization’s coal mine.
We all owe a great debt to Charles Cooke at National Review who covered her mad lying grift comprehensively in May 2021: Rebekah Jones's Florida COVID Data Conspiracy -- Not a Word of It Is True. The article header sums it up perfectly, although the details make for jaw-dropping, fascinating reading. “The former dashboard manager alleges a vast data conspiracy in Florida; not a word of it is true.”
Fast forward to a day or two after the election when I saw the news that she had lost the election to Matt Gaetz, which telescoped the time from May 2021 when I recorded a podcast about this nutcase criminal liar right into November 2022. It felt like the scene in Men in Black 3 when Agent J. goes back in time and the whole world zooms around kaleidoscopically.
I went to her campaign website. Holy Lord on rye toast - this is the height of insanity. Straight out the gate she leads with the thoroughly debunked lie about her being a ‘whistleblower,’ which madness is endorsed and given credence by publications like Forbes magazine and Fortune magazine who should be ashamed of themselves for supporting such a fraud. Then again, both of them had the Theranos Sociopath on their front covers, too…
She is keen on the beach, which is nice to know. Following her trial beginning in January 2023, it may be a long while before she sees one again.
This next bit of her platform is either the work of a truly damaged, sociopathic mind OR the work of the most talented troll in political history.
This grifter got the benefit of a gullible media, including total chumps like Chris Cuomo when he was at CNN, all of whom hated Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis so much they did no research into her absurd lies. They gave her a platform and express endorsement when all objective evidence pointed to her being a complete liar and con artist. The “fake news media” sure did a lot of damage - look at the people on Twitter and all the Democrat organizations who formally endorsed her for Congress! How did the Democrat National Committee fail to do basic due diligence when basic research showed that she has lied about everything she has ever claimed?
I tried to engage with Eric Blum, who at least according to Twitter was somehow involved with her campaign. I didn’t get a reply. Maybe it was my approach. People tell me I can come off a little abrasive when I talking about a serial fraudster trying to represent Florida in Congress. I myself don’t see it, but feel free to leave comments below.
She even LOOKS crazy on her campaign website. I mean, it looks like she is trying out for the psycho nanny who wants to kill the mommy and replace her in the family in a Lifetime holiday special.
She has - or manufactured - a slew of positive comments:
Here are the insane people and organizations who endorsed this pathological liar.
I would love to believe that none of these people or organizations actually endorsed her and that she posted all these “endorsements” without their knowledge. Sadly, I checked many of them and it’s all for real. I reached out to noted climate church bishop and Nobel Prize Winner Michael Mann for a comment and clarification and all I got was a “deleted without being read” notification, thereby demonstrating the same rigor with facts as he shows in his climate work - glad to see the consistency!
Our hyperactive former Commissioner of Agriculture, Nikki Fried, embraced Crazy Eyes Jones wholeheartedly and has stuck by her despite the overwhelming and crystal-clear proof that she made up the whole thing. This long list who publicly affirmed their belief in this grifter is even more depressing than the sad but unsurprising grift of Florida Woman Extraordinaire Rebekah.
At least she is not in Congress.
Yet.
