Russian Intern Applicant: Adam Kinzinger Dated Me, Asked For Photo ‘Without Underwear,’ Then I Got Intimidating Calls
by Patriot Editor March 16, 2021
Via National File.
https://conservativeplaylist.com/2021/0 ... ing-calls/
Republican Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger’s office offered an internship to a Russian immigrant beauty queen who met Kinzinger through her internship application. She then dated Kinzinger for about four months and sent Kinzinger racy photos at his request, according to extensive communications between the woman and a NATIONAL FILE source. The woman, Olga Kambod, provided sexually charged and volatile 2018 text messages between herself and a phone number that matches Kinzinger’s former phone number on publicly available records. Kambod also provided emails from Kinzinger’s congressional staff discussing internship duties.
Rep. Adam Kinzinger, a frequent critic of the America First movement, became angry at Olga Kambod after she accused him of suffering from “low levels of testosterone,” according to messages Kambod provided to our source. Kambod did not end up serving as an intern for Kinzinger. Olga Kambod was subjected to an over-the-phone intimidation campaign including from a caller who identified himself as “Capitol Police” to silence her about her relationship with the congressman after Kinzinger began dating his current wife, according to Kambod. “In my opinion he doesn’t respect women,” Olga Kambod confided to our source

Hearsay via a garbage newspaper must always be taken as gospel.

Idk if it's hearsay if they have plenty of evidence with texts and emails, but whatever.

I don't really see anything wrong in the texts, the phone call stuff is hearsay.
Here's Olga's LinkedIn profile .. awfully blank for someone looking for high powered work and internships:

Notice that now that Kinzinger voted to impeach Trump, he's an enemy and he's okay to go after. In2 rarely criticizes Republicans, but traitors against Trump are fair game.

I was trying to be an equal opportunity criticizer, haha. If a Rep does something that sucks, I will call them out too. Deal? Will you do the same?

Plenty of us have been piling on Cuomo. I don't think it's a problem calling something that sucks something that sucks, regardless of the Democrat or Republican affiliation of the person doing something that sucks.

Former Florida Senator Arrested For Violating Election Laws
BY ISABEL VAN BRUGEN March 19, 2021 Updated: March 19, 2021
https://www.theepochtimes.com/former-fl ... 21-03-19-1
Former Republican senator in Florida, Frank Artiles, was charged Thursday with campaign finance violations related to last year’s Miami-Dade state senate race, authorities said.
Artiles, 47, who resigned in 2017 after making racially inflammatory remarks toward colleagues, was charged with three criminal counts involving a sham candidate intended to siphon votes away from a Democratic incumbent.
Authorities said the former senator from the Miami area turned himself in a day after his Palmetto Bay house was raided and searched by Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office investigators.
According to an arrest warrant, Artiles gave nearly $45,000 to the shadow candidate in last year’s election. That candidate, 55-year-old Alex Rodriguez, has the same last name as the then-Democratic incumbent, Jose Javier Rodriguez.
The fake candidate, an auto-parts dealer who lives in Boca Raton, ran as an independent in the election which was narrowly secured by Republican Ileana Garcia by 32 votes, out of some 215,000 votes cast. Rodriguez was also charged with election law violations in connection with the scheme.
“Rodriguez would run as an independent with the same last name as the incumbent candidate (Jose Javier Rodriguez) in an attempt to confuse voters and siphon votes from the incumbent,” the affidavit says.
State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle told reporters at a press briefing that the scheme “violates everything that should be honest and straightforward about our elections.”
“What is a crime is making illegal campaign contributions to get a candidate to run,” she added. “Where it goes from here, we don’t know. We have not completed this investigation.”
Artiles and Rodriguez face the same charges: making or receiving two or more campaign contributions over or in excess of the limits; conspiracy to make or receive two or more campaign contributions over or in excess of the limits, and false swearing in connection with voting or elections.
William Barzee, attorney for Rodriguez, appeared to accuse Artiles of taking advantage of his client.
“Frank Artiles and his co-conspirators knew they couldn’t beat Jose Javier Rodriguez in a fair election, so they rigged it,” Barzee told WSVN. “Artiles cynically targeted and used a vulnerable ‘friend’ with a great name in order to confuse voters and steal the election. Alex Rodriguez deeply regrets allowing himself to be used in this way and hopes that by coming forth with the truth he can help to right these wrongs.”
Attorney for Artiles, Greg Chonillo, told CNN shortly before his client’s arrest that he “has been cooperative since the inception of this investigation as well as during the execution of the search warrant. Due to the nature of the charges and potential litigation, we will not comment on any information related to this matter. We fully intend to defend any charges in Court.”
Artiles, a Cuban-American, served three terms in the state House from a Miami-Dade district and then was elected to the Senate before his resignation. He also served in the Marine Corps.

How's this for a quote from ancient Rome - via a friends FB page. Those Romans knew a thing or two!
"Democracy destroys itself because it abuses its right to freedom and equality. Because it teaches its citizens to consider audacity as a right, lawlessness as a freedom, abrasive speech as equality, and anarchy as progress." Isocrates (436-338 BC)

Second hand info, always a risk.
The misattribution in full (although it's not entirely dissimilar):
A falsified quote invented during the 2010 financial crisis. [1]
Isocrates' actual, more nuanced, quote runs as follows:
Those who directed the state in the time of Solon and Cleisthenes did not establish a polity which … trained the citizens in such fashion that they looked upon insolence as democracy, lawlessness as liberty, impudence of speech as equality, and licence to do what they pleased as happiness, but rather a polity which detested and punished such men and by so doing made all the citizens better and wiser.

Wow. I hope she hasn't sent them a bunch of money! Or worse yet, that she's part of an ongoing giving campaign.
Poor trees. And that's only one person's propaganda.

I know she has given them money and yes, it’s next to impossible to get off their list. We have been reading about ways to stop it. If it isn’t first class mail and you put “Return to sender” on it they just throw it away. My wife started writing stuff on then and putting return to sender on them before we figured out that was a waste of time. A lot of them come with self addressed envelopes so you can send them money. My wife wrote a little paragraph and copied it that said something to the effect “We are on Social Security and cannot afford to give money. Please take us off your mailing list” She figured insulting them wouldn’t get the desired results. So far it hasn’t slowed down the mountain of propaganda she gets every day. I think she lives for that mail. If she isn’t reading that she is reading FOX News web site.

Didn't know where to put this, but former GOP Senator and Presidential candidate Bob Dole passed away today at the age of 98.
