Journalist Dan Merica, a co-anchor of the Early Brief at The Washington Post, has picked up on some of the more outrageous and Trumpesque social media posts that Pa. 07 Congressional candidate Bob Brooks posted before he announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination. Of course, before Brooks announced, he gave his Facebook page a good scrubbing.
Although WaPo is kind enough to credit this blog for at least some of what I found, I got a lot of my material from Rich Wilkins' Apocalypse Vibes. He has a pretty good summary of his and my previous stories, which are now being picked up by more mainstream outlets after months of hesitation.
They didn't want to piss off Governor Josh Shapiro, who handpicked Brooks so he could get his hands on firefighter union campaign donations.
I don't know about you, but I tend to resent it when a Governor or the DCCC powerbrokers attempt to inject themselves in a primary.
Let us make our own mistakes.
