REPORT: Candidate for Republican State Committee Declares She "Loves Hitler"
Boston-area supporter of Jim Jones Lyons running against a Black woman.
Jim Jones Lyons continues to demonstrate an unmatched ability to find the absolute scummiest of the grifters for his slate of Republican State Committee candidates.
On Wednesday Contrarian Boston reported that a candidate on Jim’s team, Lori Kauffman, has spent the last several months on Twitter praising Adolf Hitler, minimizing the Holocaust, and generally being an all-around despicable human being. We’ll let some of the posts speak for themselves, as there’s no whataboutting this garbage.
Lori wasn’t interested in running for office until she was asked to be the running mate to Daniel Kelly, a local bar owner in South Boston. That ask was apparently made by Chris Ryan, a top deputy to Jim Jones who runs Project RINO Cutters, an effort to purge the Republican State Committee of its fragile sanity.
Ryan, Jim Jones’s number two, endorsed Kauffman and Kelly back in August.
With Kelly’s help, Ryan - who describes himself as the “theater commander” in Jim’s battalion - talked Kauffman into running against Elizabeth Hinds-Ferrick, the only Black woman on the Republican State Committee and who represents the most culturally diverse district in the entire state.
It’s a bold strategy to run an actual Hitler fangirl for office, but it’s even bolder not to rescind your endorsement when it’s brought to your attention.
According to the Boston Broadside, Ryan refused to pull his RINO Cutters endorsement of Kauffman and said it’s up to her to explain her… unique ideas… to the voters.
Jim, meanwhile, may be getting some interesting calls over the next few days asking why his two Boston candidates are running on a platform of gassing the Jews.
Jim Jones was keeping close tabs on his Hitler-loving lush for State Committee.
Assuming voters in the First Suffolk district get even a whiff of the stench coming from Jim’s candidates, he can say goodbye to another two seats on the State Committee next March.
The pressure must be weighing on Geoff Diehl as well, considering some outbursts he’s been having on Twitter since filing paperwork a few days ago announcing his intention to run for yet another public office (one he already lost once, for those keeping track). After finally achieving that long-sought “perennial candidate” descriptor in news stories, Diehl had enough, arguing with State Committee member Jaclyn Corriveau and pointing out that Jim has heroically filed another lawsuit about something or other.
We’re sure this won’t be the last lump of coal given to Jim and Geoff by their own candidates. Maybe they can pull a Yankee Swap and ask the Kauffman/Kelly team to drop out.
