Sad comment on the state of American journalism (especially local) that this wasn't discovered until now...

  You blame journalists of all people? How about him, does he have agency? How about the GOP (I suppose not, putting up con artists seems par for the course)? How about the NY Democratic party for doing zero opposition research? Not to mention there were quite prominent journalists like Josh Marshall raising red flags about this guy all last year. https://twitter.com/joshtpm https://twitter.com/joshtpm

    We should all expect candidates to be dishonest. And that's by far the most appropriate posture for journalists. I agree that the state party is crap, which is precisely how they lost so many House seats. https://www.democracynow.org/2022/11/10/congress_midterm_elections_republicans_flip_seats https://www.democracynow.org/2022/11/10/congress_midterm_ele...
