Alan Grayson is running for an open state Senate seat in the Orlando area, mostly Osceola County with a slice of Orange County as well. It’s a pretty blue area— at least it is when demoralized Democrats bother to vote— and there’s not really any reason for Marjorie Traitor Greene to get involved in a Democratic primary there. But a Greene Alpharetta operative, Jason Toilet Boles, of Greene’s crooked Saving America From Socialism PAC, has inserted himself into the campaign, sending gratuitously nasty mailers denouncing Grayson.
Greene has funneled several hundred thousand dollars into Boles’ opaque and legally dubious operation which uses the catchphrase “You don’t know what you can get away with until you try” as a motto. Although Greene, the QAnon conspiracy theorist and gossip monger from backwoods Georgia, and Grayson, a staunch no-nonsense defender of honesty and integrity in government, are polar opposites, they never served in Congress at the same time. The last she had Boles working on anything was his role in pushing RFK, Jr’s campaign as a Democratic challenger to Biden. Greene and her pal, now former-Congressman George Santos, were hoist on their own petards when Jr. decided to run as an independent candidate instead, freaking out the Trump campaign which had directed several million dollars into his now-rival’s campaign.
No one knows why Greene would be spending money on attacking Grayson in a Democratic primary. But… a few months ago he did ask his Twitter followers to vote in a poll asking who was the stupidest member of Congress. She won the poll. He’s also tweeted at her several times, like this one and this one. And this may have pissed her off. She likely didn’t appreciate this either. The primary is August 20, less than a month away. Please consider contributing to Grayson's campaign here.
