The DC swamp supports it's own

by Carl Boyanton

Here in Mississippi, we had a couple of primaries that were important to us. Both primaries were against incumbent Republicans and both went to runoffs. Both incumbents were well funded. Congressman Steven Palazzo spent $793,000 in his campaign against the challengers for his seat. He also got endorsements from the Swamp. Steve Scalise and Jim Jordan. It makes you wonder why these Congressmen came to support another Congressman who was under investigation by a Congressional committee. Is Steven Palazzo that successful of a Congressman that they just had to help him get re-elected even if he was guilty? Does the swamp just not like to have to train new members in the way corruption works in the good old boy union? The DC swamp getting involved in a primary in Mississippi and injecting their wish. Shouldn’t this be decided by the people of Mississippi without the outside DC swamp? Luckily in this race, there were 6 challengers that stepped up to fight against a career corrupt politician and were successful in supporting the runner-up Mike Ezell beat Palazzo. Head to head would have been a tough challenge for any of the candidates but as a unified group going against the incumbent one challenger prevailed and we retired our career corrupt Congressman Steven Palazzo.
