Last Updated on August 19, 2022 America First congressional candidate Laura Loomer crushed U.S. Rep. David Webster (R-FL) in a Villagers for Trump straw poll. Loomer ultimately received 89.07 percent of the vote from the key demographic, compared to just 10.2 percent for Webster.
“Villagers for Trump is the largest and most impactful club in The Villages, the largest voting block in my district,” Loomer said after the massive victory.
Loomer has been running an America First campaign and has hit Webster hard over key missed votes. The Florida congressman most notably missed a Trump impeachment trial despite overwhelming support for acquittal from his constituents. Webster has claimed that he had a family emergency that day and was unable to make the vote.
The congressional hopeful has referred to the six-time congressman as one of the most absent members of Congress” and accuses him of not “showing up for them in times when it matters most.”
The two are set to square off in the August 23 Republican Primary. Since there is no Democrat in the race, the primary will be winner-take-all.
In addition to the massive straw poll victory, Laura Loomer has gained a significant edge in fundraising. According to the most recent FEC report, Loomer has raised $665,021 while incumbent Webster brought in $552,103 through June 30.
FEC reports show that Loomer had 1,029 donors while Webster had 282 donors. Websters donors, while fewer in number, tend to donate larger amounts. A large portion of Webster’s funds have come from political action committees (PAC’s).
Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
