 So I stumbled across this case study QB clip on my Twitter timeline that I wanted to show you it cut my attention because it made Me very very angry irrationally so perhaps but it features shantel brown senator Nina Turner's opponent Just straight up lying about Nina Turner casually So just telling a gigantic lie about senator Nina Turner and to make matters worse the MSNBC anchor Disrespectfully referred to senator Nina Turner as Tina Turner. Now. I get it. Maybe she misspoke it happens from time to time But do you not know who Nina Turner is? This is a national American progressive political figure and you're calling her Tina Turner again Maybe she just misspoke, but I feel like this entire clip was just so Disrespectful to Nina Turner and it made me mad especially the lies that shantel brown told so let's go ahead and watch and see if you Didn't point out the lie here. Let me talk to you a little bit about your upcoming primary challenge You got a rematch with Bernie Sanders as ally Tina turn Nina Turner, I should say take a listen to her on with my colleague Jonathan Capehart, excuse me for saying Tina Turner. It isn't Nina Turner. Take a listen It's a new district it is new people and it is absolutely a new time It is my sincere hope that the issues are pushed forward and that that dark money That really does not care about the destiny of the people in greater Cleveland that they do not come in and try to Delute and also pollute the election process this time So two things there we heard First and foremost is the interference of dark money here Do you agree with her of the involvement in dark money in the process and also are you confident that you can defeat her once again? Let me say this dark money did play a role and let me also point out that that dark money was on the other side of this race I was out raised three to one and people seem to forget there were 11 other Candidates in this race and while it came down to me and her I won by not a plurality, but the majority So let's be clear the lines have not been drawn. So we don't know what the district will look like However, I was able to make it to the halls of Congress and deliver on the promises that I campaign on Which was delivering jobs to the people here in Northeast, Ohio by voting on the largest and most Historic bipartisan infrastructure bill we in Northeast, Ohio We'll have we'll receive millions and billions of dollars in fact $1.8 billion to be exact to deal with roads $96 million to deal with bridges hundreds of hundred million dollars to deal with the lead pipe situation So I've been doing the work and I'm as a consistent nine-year legislator who has lived here my entire life If the lines are redrawn where it should be Inclusive of all of Cuyahoga County I'm confident that I have the best advantage to retain this seat and I hope the people of the 11th Congressional Congressional District will trust me to continue doing the work that I promise to do Okay, before we get to her lie about dark money I just got to address what she said here about all the things that she's accomplished She said I was able to make it to the halls of Congress and deliver on the promises that I campaigned on What did she do specifically? She simply voted yes on the bipartisan infrastructure deal Congratulations, you did it you did it, you know, you weren't there for negotiations You showed up and you just voted yes, but I guess you can brag about that But I wouldn't personally brag about that had I just been elected to Congress because I would have voted no on the bipartisan Infrastructure deal because in voting before that piece of legislation before the Senate votes on build back better You give away your leverage and you essentially got half of the infrastructure proposal the human infrastructure part So I don't actually think that's as big of a win for you as you think it is But nonetheless, I mean what else does she have she just got there? So of course she's gonna brag about that, but let's get to her claim about Nina Turner So Nina Turner rightfully pointed out that dark money played a role in the last election Yes, it is the case that Nina Turner did outray Chantel round three to one But she didn't do that by begging and pleading with corporate America to give her money She did that by canvassing by organizing by actually getting people from around the country to send in small Individual donations, but what does Chantel Brown do? She hits Nina Turner with a no you which isn't an argument Nina Turner did not take dark money now Perhaps she's referring to organizations that may or may not have contributed to Nina Turner like the Sunrise Movement This is what Elizabeth Warren said back in 2020 about Bernie Sanders She claimed that Bernie Sanders had super PACs, but the organizations she was referring to Sunrise Movement, which is a bit disingenuous So I don't know what Chantel Brown is talking about here But to kind of obfuscate from the fact that she has taken lots of money From super PACs and in dark money. She just hits Nina Turner with a no you That's not an argument specifically cite a single Dark money contribution that Nina Turner took if so we can look into it Maybe there's an organization, you know a particular progressive organization that we don't have all the details About that perhaps Nina Turner took money from okay, let's talk about this But she doesn't do that. You want to know why because she's lying she's lying through her teeth and Dark money isn't the only problem with Chantel Brown Dark money is bad because you can't trace it But even when there are instances where we know who donated to you those donations can be bad For example Chantel Brown took lots and lots of money from Republicans and that's not hyperbole She literally did this as the intercept reports in race against Nina Turner GOP donors fund Chantel Brown Now we're not gonna read the article here But as you can see by casually scrolling through the article she took a lot of money from GOP donors This includes the former chair of the Cuyahoga County Republican Party Leonard Feinstein who contributed to the National Republicans senatorial campaign David Heller Contributed to Republicans in Ohio and Texas Neil Kadisha who contributed to Trump's re-election campaign in 2020 and the list goes on so the question is why is Chantel Brown taking money from Donors who are also contributing to this extremist right-wing party if Chantel Brown had any principles She would reject that money. She'd see okay. Well, you know what Neil Kadisha you donated to Trump's campaign I do not support Donald Trump. I'm gonna reject this contribution. Here's your money back, but she didn't do that She took all of that money. Why? Because she has no principles. She doesn't care who gives her money if somebody gives her money It doesn't matter if it says in himself. She's gonna accept that why because she is unethical She has no principles or moral values whatsoever when it comes to politics now That's not the only thing that she did so also reported in the intercept Chantel Brown practically begged super PACs for money Oh, and let's not forget about the very serious ethics probe that she's also facing I mean, this is an individual who's so craven. She will do anything to get elected and that also includes lying So to kind of deflect from her own Corruption and just morally bankrupt contributions from Republicans. What does she say in response to Nina Turner? Who's calling this out? No, you you're taking dark money. Not me It's just it's so it's so shameless. It's it's raising So I don't know how this race is going to turn out I am absolutely unquestionably rooting for Nina Turner But already like a week or two within the race Chantel Brown is already spreading lies about Nina Turner. It's just truly Gross, but I think that this is kind of something that we all expected given what we know About Chantel Brown. She lacks moral character and she has no principles She will take money from anyone anyone doesn't matter Donald Trump himself can send a $5,000 contribution to one of her super PACs And she would graciously accept that why because she doesn't care she cares about her career She has no concern whatsoever about her constituents or the American people. She's just going along to get along She doesn't care and that's embarrassing. You know, you think that if you run for Congress You'd actually want to do something to help the American people, but she's just gonna be a seat warmer She's gonna sit there and do nothing for people until somebody like Nina Turner comes along and successfully primaries her and actually puts up a fight For the American people for good policies in this country not gets their caves to corporate Democrats immediately and then brags about it I mean imagine so yeah Chantel Brown already lying about Nina Turner, but I don't think this is surprising to anyone
