This is about Vote Amy Drake: St. Joseph County Council’s “Indiana Call to Action” PAC which RNM wrote about earlier this year. FYI — INCTA is on EVERY SINGLE St. Joseph County GOP meeting agenda to give updates, push their agenda, etc. This is an illegal PAC and should be investigated by local, state and federal authorities.

As we hit the final stretch of election season, watch out where your money is going. A Hoosier who thought he was donating to political campaigns, wasn’t.

This is a massive scandal. The South Bend Tribune literally went back to change what a candidate said MONTHS earlier and gave ZERO disclaimers or notations. All of the proof is in this story. What credibility the SBT was holding onto is now gone.

FIVE of the six PHM School Board Candidates have agreed to participate in a townhall forum. ALL of them are Republicans. The only person dead set on avoiding answering questions about his character and platform is Mr. Doug Chaffee. Perhaps it's because he doesn't want to have to answer several questions about having s*x with his secretary when he was the Principal of Penn HS. Or, he doesn't want to face questions about his degenerate son, current school board member Matt Chaffee, who has been caught up in several scandals involving prostitution, illegal gambling and stalking and abusing women.

REAL News was founded to expose corruption AND extremism (which go hand-in-hand much of the time) — RNM does not care if you’re gay, straight, Muslim, Christian, Atheist, Democrat or Republican, rich or poor. We care about the truth.

And, while I personally believe there is a much larger problem with extremism on the Left, that does not mean I will ignore the radicals on my own, conservative, side. Here’s the blatant truth: radicalism on BOTH sides is BAD.

You can be anti-communist, anti-abortion, anti child grooming, anti-DEI, pro-2nd amendment and NOT be a radical. I for instance am married to a black woman and had a gay man as the best man in my wedding. I still don’t believe in DEI or radical LGBTQ theory, I am staunchly pro-life and I own MANY guns. I will also fight tooth and nail against the indoctrination of my children and the protection of my 2nd amendment rights. I will THEN defend my wife and children from actual racism and do anything to help out a gay friend. I’d also crawl over broken glass to cast my vote for Donald Trump.

On the flip side, you can be pro-union, anti-gun, pro-immigration reform, pro-universal healthcare and NOT be a radical (despite being wrong). And, you can have friends and associates on the other side of the aisle.

Here’s what you need to know: Be cautious of people who tell you what to think. You need to be suspicious of people who tell you who to support based on thin and veiled moral standards (especially in a primary). We literally have the SJC GOP supporting a Judge candidate who killed a Brother of Holy Cross and lied about it for decades. The GOP is also supporting a school board candidate who was fired from his job as a Principal at Penn HS for having s*x with his secretary. That unwavering support is radical behavior.

Want to know how an extremist operates? This video does a pretty good job of explaining.
