Pfffft! Do you hear it? Like the air leaving the tire of one of my bicycles, so it seems that Steve Lynch's campaign for Northampton County Exec is running on flat tires and more than a few broken spokes. On Sunday, he was threatening to bring 20 strong men and forcibly remove Northampton Area School Directors unless they reverse themselves on what appears to be a temporary mask mandate. By Monday, he transformed himself from an armor-wearing jack-booted thug to Mahatma Gandhi. Now he's all about peace and love and even posted the video you see above to "clarify" his Sunday sermon. I think we all know what's happening hear. He went too far, knows he went too far, got caught going too far and now is trying to blame the "left" for his own remarks.
In his Sunday video, which you can see for yourself, this is what he said: ""Forget going onto these school boards with freakin' data. You go into these school boards to remove them. I'm going in with 20 strong men and I'm gonna; give them an option - they can leave or they can be removed." It's abundantly clear he was calling for coercion. Why else would he need 20 strong men to accompany him?
This blog reported on his incitement to overthrow a legitimately elected school board, as it has been reporting on Lynch since January. But now, all the other news sources decided that it should report that a candidate for the county's highest office advocates the overthrow of the people's representatives on a school board. The story, which first appeared here, also appeared on conservative and liberal sites.
There was also considerable backlash on Lynch's Facebook page from people he has yet to block. He's been called an "[a]ngry coward", "violent wingnut" etc.
Lynch first complains he's been taken out of context. That is nonsense. He said what he said. Then he denies having threatened school board members with physical violence. This is also nonsense. He said what he said. His third objection is that people have added words to what he said. This blog added nothing. I checked the video and quoted him accurately. He tries to diminish his appeal for 20 strong men, but that's sheer horseshit. He said this as well. "Men, where are you? Men, wake up! Smell the coffee! Let's go! Make men great again, right? Make men men again, let's go!" It's abundantly clear that he wanted to use men as thugs to intimidate elected officials.
The man who wears flak jackets goes on to portray himself as a man of peace. His own words say differently.

The national media picked up this story, which is awesome. People need to know about this monster before voting begins. Thank you for doing your part, Bernie. Yes, you were on it from the beginning.
Lynch, Brown and the other goofs. Are they serious or is this just a huge episode of 'Pranked' being played on Northampton County. Tine to send a strong message of, "No thank you!"
Well, he's a politician. I've been lied to six times by my president in the last four days. Again, these are politicians. If they're not lying and backtracking, they're really not doing it right. This is a nothing burger of feigning shock at the lying pol you don't like. It's like renewing one's political credentials from from time to time. And it feels good.
You're getting more votes for Lynch than you know. Thanks.
"It was never about me," says Lynch. Dude, you are all about you. And nobody else.
That's what happens when you get blasted by the national press. (Huff post)
who cares he was right who are the school board people - they do not know much look what they did to the government schools--most school board people are liberal left wing idiots.
Lynch is a wing nut. Evidently his testosterone supplements kicked in and his Jack-boots clicked and he went off the tracks with his manly-men tirade and is now back-tracking. No one added words to his speech. No one needed to, he went over the cliff on his own.
Thank you, Bernie, for reporting this, since neither the MC or 69 would dare to.
Well, well, well. Steve, make sure you don’t hit anyone while you’re backpedaling. Your typical fat-right rhetoric finally punches you back and you get a taste of the consequences. You’re not fooling anyone and you meant what you said, and your only plan is to intimidate and bully anyone that disagrees with you. We didn’t take it out of context, and now you’re playing the victim. You bring nothing new to the table and America decided in 2020 that we don’t want politicians like you in office. Good riddance, and lay off the growth hormone will ya, you’re not scaring anyone.
Yes "words are key" you Fn Moron, You threatened elected officials with Harm, "either leave, or my 20 strong Men (are you gay) will make you leave" oh and also "Make Men Great Again" yes you are Gay, nothing wrong with that i mean you do spend an awful amount of time with guys in the gym sweating together, we can understand your transgressions, it's ok If you come out and let us know who you truly are
Hey you can give anyone the benefit of the doubt for a slip of the tongue the first time.
However when things escape your mouth or fingers it typically shows what you are thinking and keeping your self. Being able to keep thoughts and actins to yourself is part of life but when the regularly boil up and out for attention or effect they are signs of bigger and more ongoing problems.
Also when something like this happens once it is one things but when it happens multiple times even over an extended period there is more going on behind the scenes with the individual then not.
I wonder how he would react if someone in a prominent position said
"Forget the elections with freakin' data and real results. We are coming for you! You go into his political office to remove him. I'm going in with 20 strong men and I'm gonna; give him an option - He can leave or He can be removed." Your time is up you can either resign and never be in the publics eye or a public position again or ...... We the people have the power!. You are going to be removed and I am not going to stop fighting until you are removed. You will never ever again.!" The time is now to fight and go after him in every way.
Just using his words and directing it at him.
7:36 - Read your post again and ask yourself, why does this read like I'm a Russian/Chinese troll?
"Why are most school board people liberal left wing idiots?" Are moderates or conservatives banned from running? Or has the stolen election filtered down to the schoolboard candidates? Get real, the candidates you love, like Lynch are filtered out and returned to the recycle bin.
Gary W Gorman:
In Lynch's explanation video: "By no means did I "intend" to threaten physical violence" against school board members. Ah, but you did.
That's like a drunk driver saying at his sentencing hearing, "I didn't 'intend' to run over and kill that pedestrian".
Also, Lynch justifies his comments by saying that it was parents who came to him for help after not getting their way and reportedly being told to "shut up" at a school board meeting. Assuming that this is true, Lynch's idiotic response is to offer 20 men to violently overthrow the board members if they don't resign "voluntarily"? That's rich.
Finally, Lynch states that he wants to "Make men, men again". If inciting a violent insurrection at a School Board meeting is his definition of being a man, he doesn't need to be our County Executive, he needs Anger Management Treatment.
Mr. Lynch obviously let his frustrations and fears get the best of him. He might have seriously hurt his chances of being elected. Although,I really do understand why these types of outbursts are happening and expect more.
Deny all you like, but many so-called ‘conspiracy’ theories and ‘fake news’ reports are proving to be true. America has been changing too rapidly . . . and NOT in a comforting way. A growing number of citizens are losing confidence in the future of their families. I am one who is quite concerned.
Steve, by “strong men” do you mean all those January 6th insurrectionist that stormed the capital and got their arses handed to them by law enforcement investigations? I hope the FBI come knocking on your door and puts an end to your failing campaign. No one important is supporting you, and you know it. End it today and stop wasting your own personal finances on a lost cause.
Here is all anyone needs to know about Lynch and every other passionate Anti Mask/Anti Vaccine "protestor". They are all weak little pussies who can't handle inconvenience in life and like to whine about things.
Sure, they'll wrap themselves in the flag and cry about their freedoms and liberties being taken away, but thats just to make themselves feel better because they're ashamed of themselves for being such delicate little flowers.
They'll reach for spurious "facts" or just make up shit to back up their positions all because they don't want to have to reach into their pocket or purse and put on a mask when they go into a building. "It's hard to breath!" "It makes me sweaty!" "It's hard to talk!" "I don't like it"...
These people are just soft and selfish, unwilling to help others if it means they have to do anything beyond pleasure themselves.
As Snopes now says frequently about Biden...
"He merely misspoke."
The Northampton County GOP Chairwoman's handpicked candidate..... Great job Snover.... McClure wins by 20 pts for sure. Yesterday must have felt like Christmas morning for Lamont... I'll be one of many registered Republicans voting for McClure this November.
This guy is a real life Mr Buzzcut from beavis and butthead (Google him if you don't know). "Make Men Great Again" lol what a joke!
8:21-- and that is a shame because look what your people did to this country in last 50 years--more and more left wing radicals and people vote for them -this is what we have a country that is losing on all fronts.
My kids wear masks; it's common sense in closed areas with multiple people.
I don't want the government telling my kids where and when to wear them.
I agree with Lynch.
You have a constitutional right to oppose masks or vaccines and to petition your government accordingly. That is not what this is about. Otis about a thug who wanted 20 string men to help him remove school board members over a temporary measure designed to keep your children alive. If you agree with Lynch on that, and some of you do, you’re no American
No one cares about your opinion. We are still going through a pandemic and science is leading the way attempting to get us through it. Mandates are needed because people are stupid and can’t understand the rules of transmission when it comes to this virus. It’s not about you, it’s about everyone else that comes in contact with you and THEIR health. Stop being so selfish and think of your community for once. It’s not about your rights, it’s about doing what’s right. If you think a piece of cloth is impeding on your personal rights, you have no idea what it means to be an American.
Republicans killing themselves with a preventable virus isn't much of a long-term strategy, BUT it has my complete support.
@ 0901
Thank you for your opinion about those who elect not to vaccinate or have issues with being told what to wear.
I ask that you compare these requirements from Government to that of other tyrannical regimes. Demanding people to show their vaccine card (NYC) is nothing different that Germans asking people to "SHOW YOUR PAPERS" to prove you were German and had permission to walk around and weren't Jewish.
Most look at a greater picture and are looking ahead to avoid a crash course in the dismantlement of the US Constitution.
You may not agree with this observation but how dare you demand and belittle others into trying to believe yours.
Seriously review Spark Notes Themes of Orwell's "1984" as well as reading A. Herlong 64 Communist Goals and look at the country as a whole and explain to me how it is not occurring.
Weird that the standard for CoViD seems to be zero deaths, while that same standard re: Afghanistan is 200-400.
@11:43 "Warrior" - Don't compare it to Nazi Germany, because its not even remotely close. YOU are CHOOSING not to vaccinate and YOU are unable to wear a mask because it makes you a little sweaty and its just uncomfortable. You are simply attempting to justify your weakness as some noble and patriotic cause to make yourself feel better - just admit it.
I've read 1984, multiple times actually - very little parallels or intersects to what is happening today. Crying "Communism!" or "Socialism!" is just a political scare tactic used by the right to stir up dimwits.
11:43 - I agree, Our nation has been overthrown. But, many have no idea just how far. We didn’t just change the Administration in Washington, we’ve changed our way of life.
PROUD Lynch Mobber here, the tree of liberty is indeed withering and desperately desiccated much like the Peruvian mummies of the Nazca plateau the sensible prescription is a slow drip of something high and iron and other minerals to restore the vision of our founder's! Do not let fear of a woke mob deter you into mealy mouthed explanations brother Steve we are counting on you to lead as the tip of the spear not equivocatate like a cuckold soy boy offering context to comments that were indeed appropriate.
UHURU!
He's headed for the Norristown Psych Ward.
Tool. There are a lot of great people on Northampton's school board. Mostly conservative. Guys like David Gogel, who selflessly loves NASD and has served with dignity for years.
What does this guy propose to do that will make the world a better place?
@10:10 Both repubs and Dems were in the office during the past 50 years so either give up your wife so Trump can grab her in the crotch or your teenager so he can wolk in her while she is in a changing room, or give him you bank accounts and house so he can keep it. or go to work for him so he won't pay you. All things that he has done. Keep drinking the koolaid.
The dems are no better. The clintons both should have been jailed and more.
Bush did more to hurt retirees during both their times while in office. And sent many military to their deaths because Daddy was threatened. And they both padded the bank accounts of the big bucks defense department suppliers and people like Cheney who should have been hammered for being the chairman and CEO of Halliburton Company from 1995 to 2000 and has received stock options from Halliburton. In the run-up to the Iraq War, Halliburton was awarded a $7 billion contract for which only Halliburton was allowed to bid. Coincidentally right before he became VP
So simple put get you whining sniveling cry baby head out of your ars and realize that it is both side and start blaming your cult leadership just as much as the other side.
LT Dan as with most coolaide drinking pathetic individuals You are crying and whining because you are fearful that you life will come to a quick change when people truely understand how much you really do not matter to society or even anybody that you consider close.
Steve is in perfect health probably part of the reason he doesn't cave into the Beta Male fear narrative being regurgitated by weaklings like Anderson "Silver Fox" Cooper and Don Lemon sized brain.
If Lamonster McMutt contracted the KungFlu he would be in deep caca just like his party after Sleepy Joe tucked tail and was bathed in the blood of 13 brave patriots!
U-HU-RU? Or maybe UH-U-RU? WTF?
Lynch, Brown and their band of whacks are no in the best interest of the county. Lets get real!
If elections continue to be rigged there will be bloodshed in this country
Your boy Lynch peddles snake oil by day and conspiracy theories, lies and facism the rest of the day. He's nothing more than a paper patriot pussy, really.
It is our battle cry translation: Freedom! The idea of a battle cry is probably foreign to limp wristed soy machiato sipping Rachel Maddow acolytes whose notion of combat is robust Twitter exchanges!
Love the headset PuffingtonRoast used for their hatchet piece on Brother Steve, his bronzed skin glowing under a perfectly faded and geled head of salt n pepper hair framed by a chiseled furry jaw that would make Charlton Heston jelly.
Also for the record having trained with Steve off and on for the past 5 years he really doesn't need 20 beefcakes to get er done he is a one man wrecking crew all natural by the way lots of good supplements available, thanks Joe Rogan!
"@ LT Dan 4:06
Brother Steve? LMAO - You might as well have ended your post with the Seig Heil salute!
Your post is dripping with white supremacy vibes and you’re not fooling anyone with your hegemonic chicanery.
But alas, we will all be glad when your archaic dogma dies with you and your kind.
Peace and love."
This comment is deleted and reposted bc there is a huge gap at the end. I hate those kinds of comments.
As for Lt. Dan, he is an imposter who gets his rocks off by pretending to be gay (NorCo Twink) or a Mezzacappa defender or now, a Steve Lynch supporter. He is none of those things. He is, in fact, a troll who is unhappy unless everything is about him.
Oh, cool, another tough guy
Are you one of the twenty that Steve mentioned?
This is all so confusing and crazy. Bernie, I am a mostly moderate person. This local election is turning into a food fight. With mail-in voting soon we need to focus now. Do you have any thoughts beyond Lynch on the county council, would want people with some smarts an d lot so common sense. As my family has received services I do not want people who don't have a clue.
@1451
Not sure who this "Warrior" you are referencing.
I am sorry you are unable or unwilling to draw the parallels. However, you made no mention of reading A. Herlong's Communist Goals:
