Jamaal Bowman loses primary race



So remember the moron New York congressman Jamaal Bowman who after he activated a fire alarm while Congress was in session, triggering an evacuation as Democrats were trying to stall a vote to avert a government shutdown and he knew better so it was done on purpose and than when questioned lied and said he was trying to enter a part of a building via an exit door, and longer way to his destination. Something MTG or Marjorie Taylor Greene exposed. Well the same idiot Jamaal lost a primary challenge, according to projections, in a closely watched race that exposed a bitter rift within the Democratic party over the Israel-Gaza war. George Latimer, 70, entered the race in December at the urging of local Jewish leaders who were angry with Mr Bowman over his vocal criticism of Israel.

Bowman, a former school principal which is another reason to not like him! LMAO... Sorry had too. But he has accused Israel of genocide, which it denies, and repeatedly questioned the Biden administration's support of Israel's government. One group, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or Aipac, spent nearly $15m (£12m) in the primary to unseat the left-wing representative in New York's 16th congressional district. Overall, $24.8m was spent by various groups in the race, making it the most expensive House of Representatives primary in history.

With 88% of votes counted on Tuesday evening, Mr Latimer had won more than 58% of the vote, compared with 42% for Mr Bowman. A long-time former county executive, Mr Latimer has portrayed himself as a steadfast defender of Israel and characterized Hamas as a terrorist organisation that won't negotiate. After his victory, he offered a unity message and took aim at extremist views. "We have to look at the arguments of the far right and the far left, and say you cannot destroy this country with your rhetoric and your arguments." Mr Bowman, who won office in 2020, had accused Aipac of trying to "buy" the race in the district, which spans Westchester Country and part of the New York City borough of the Bronx. But wait isn't this denying the results of an election and saying it's been rigged? Something they're currently trying to throw TRUMP in prison over? Hmmmm...

"We should be outraged when a Super PAC of dark money can spend $20 million to brainwash people into believing something that isn't true," he said. Why cause you lost? LOSER... Last year, US lawmakers formally censured Mr Bowman him for the above mentioned scandal with the Fire Alarm. Or ALARMGATE as some called it. Bowman was seen as a more recent addition to the House’s so-called “Squad”, a group of younger, progressive lawmakers that includes fellow New Yorker, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Another bunch of idiots, and thus makes sense why he's such a moron look who he's friends with! LOL He also was the first "Squad" member to lose an election. Defeated by the more centrist Mr Latimer, the incumbent was significantly behind earlier this month; an Emerson College poll showed Mr Latimer leading, 48% to 31%. Bowman's loss may be a sign of challenges ahead for other members of the left-wing group. Polls show Missouri Representative Cori Bush is neck-and-neck with her more moderate primary opponent.

While it's too early to declare a broader trend for the progressive movement. Other "Squad" members, including Representative Ocasio-Cortez and Michigan Representative Rashida Tlaib already have skated through the primaries with definitive victories. And Bowman's odds were likely hurt by a change soon after his election to his district's boundaries, which were extended north into more of New York City's affluent suburbs. Mr Latimer was supported by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, while this is cause for concern for conservatives it's not like this is someone who is right wing but at least this he isn't someone as mental unfit to hold office like Jamaal Bowman. Time to get these lunatics out of their seats I don't care who does it, and I HATE Hillary Clinton. Mr Bowman was backed by House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries, left-wing Ocasio-Cortez and independent Vermont senator Bernie Sanders. Primary races also took place on Tuesday in Utah and Colorado. In Colorado, headline-making Republican Lauren Boebert emerged victorious over five other rivals from her party in the state's fourth congressional district.

Ms Boebert, 37, opted to run in the heavily conservative district after leaving the state's third district in which she narrowly won re-election in 2022. The primary also marked her first electoral campaign since her personal life drew the attention of national media. In one incident, which took place last year, she apologized after being escorted out of a theater performance in Denver after complaints of vaping, singing and causing a disturbance.

Rep. Jamaal Bowman criminally charged with a misdemeanor for pulling a fire alarm


Remember we had Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) @repbowman pulling what now we jokingly call "ALARMGATE" as he pulled the fire alarm and his excuse was "He was running late and thought this would open the doors... To a direction which Marjorie Taylor Greene later proved would have seen him going the wrong way! But it looks like finally this man has been criminally charged with a misdemeanor for pulling the fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building, allegedly to prevent a vote on the House floor.

The charge carries a maximum sentence of six months in jail. NBC News’s Frank Thorp first reported the story. “We finished our investigation,” reads a statement from the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP). “Our agents gathered all the evidence, packaged it up, and sent the entire case with charges to prosecutors for their consideration.”

USCP presented a probable cause arrest warrant for 22DC1319A – False Fire Alarm – to the D.C. Attorney General, who is charging Bowman. Bowman has been ordered to appear in D.C. Superior Court Thursday morning at 9:30 a.m, EDT for his arraignment. The former middle school principal insisted that he pulled the fire alarm in order to open the door to make a government funding vote. Breitbart News first broke exclusively that Bowman threw emergency warning signs to the floor before pulling the alarm and running down a set of stairs before exiting the building from another floor, contradicting his claims.



Republicans have drafted a resolution to expel Bowman from Congress. We do know that Bowman reached an agreement with the Attorney General to pay a $1000 fine and issue a formal apology in exchange for having his charge dropped after three months, according to Axios. The congressman will avoid serving any jail time if adhering to the agreement. “I am responsible for activating a fire alarm, I will be paying the fine issued, and look forward to these charges being ultimately dropped,” a Bowman statement read. Bowman is still subject to additional actions from Congress, including censure and even expulsion.

Pics & Video kill excuses for "Alarmgate" by Jamaal Bowman



This idiot "Jamaal Bowman" and his b/s excuses are going up in smoke so might need to pull another fire alarm soon! See new images of the fire alarm that Rep. Jamaal Bowman pulled in a House office building as his fellow Democrats were trying to delay a key vote to fund the government appear to douse cold water on his claims that the move was just a boneheaded mistake. Well his clear breaking of the law is explained by a boneheaded mistake? Yet they're charging TRUMP for a riot he was NOT in, and for saying to "Peacefully and Patriotic let's be heard!" Which breaks ZERO laws yet they're trying to throw him in prison for life over words. Here on video, and pictures we have Jamaal Bowman breaking the law and the fix to save him is in. Well let's be honest this isn't a fix tho he was probably told to do this by the people who run the show.The bright red alarm is clearly marked with the word “FIRE” and is right next to two signs that provide explicit details on how to open the emergency door at the Cannon House Office Building, photos show. “Emergency Exit Only!” the signs read. “Push until alarm sounds (3 seconds). Door will unlock in 30 seconds.” The strident socialist New York lawmaker, whose gaffe was caught on surveillance video, simply needed to turn his head to the right to see the blaring signs.

But Bowman claimed he thought pulling the alarm would open the door. So he's lying, can't read or is well downright stupid. I think he's both lying, and downright Stupid. But these are the only options. OR a combination like the one I've made. He said that “Today, as I was rushing to make a vote, I came to a door that is usually open for votes but today would not open,” Bowman said in a statement posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. “I am embarrassed to admit that I activated the fire alarm, mistakenly thinking it would open the door. I regret this and sincerely apologize for any confusion this caused.” 

Sarah Iddrissu, his chief of staff, added in a statement on social media that, “Congressman Bowman did not realize he would trigger a building alarm as he was rushing to make an urgent vote.” Well he said it was a "mistake" so guess they will not charge him right? Well again things don't add up with his excuse and it's not like Sarah Iddrissu would lie to cover his idiotic pulling of the FIRE ALARM would she?

Many lawmakers and political observers weren’t buying it with a growing chorus of Republicans on Sunday accusing Bowman of pulling the alarm as a tactic to delay the House vote on a GOP stopgap spending bill. “This is not confusing at all,” former Michigan Republican congressman Justin Amash wrote on X. “There’s a push bar on the door below the sign. Members of Congress see these signs all the time and know exactly what they mean.



“I can’t even imagine thinking it has something to do with a fire alarm pull on the wall,” Amash added. “Stop excusing his recklessness.” The wild fire-alarm incident, which triggered an evacuation of the Cannon Building at around noon Saturday, took place as Democrats were scrambling over the GOP’s last-minute offer to avert a government shutdown.




Some Bowman critics, including former President Donald Trump, said he should be arrested and charged for allegedly trying to obstruct an official government proceeding. “Will Congressman [Jamaal] Bowman be prosecuted and imprisoned for very dangerously pulling and setting off the main fire alarm system in order to stop a Congressional vote that was going on in D.C.,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.


“It was a very dangerous ‘Obstruction of an Official Proceeding,’ the same as used against our J-6 prisoners. Actually, his act may have been worse,’’ said Trump, referencing the Jan. 6 riot in 2021.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) conveyed a similar sentiment also bringing up the defendants charged with trying to stop the certification of President Biden’s 2020 election victory during the rioting at the US Capitol when calling out Bowman.

“Jamaal Bowman must be treated exactly the same as Jan 6 defendants. He was a school principal,” Greene posted on X. “He knows exactly what pulling a fire alarm means. He did it while the Dems were trying to stall for time for the Senate and the Dem whip had just called for a motion to adjourn.”



Obstructing an official government proceeding is illegal under federal law punishable by fines and “not more than 20 years.” Bowman on Saturday insisted to reporters that he wasn’t trying to stall anything – and just goofed. “I was rushing to make a vote. I was trying to get through the door,” he said. “I thought the alarm would open the door. I didn’t mean to cause confusion.


"I want to be very clear, this was not me, in any way, trying to delay the vote,” he added. “It was the exact opposite — I was trying urgently to get to a vote, which I ultimately did.” Capitol Police said they were probing the incident, and on Saturday released a still image of Bowman pulling the alarm.


The Republican-controlled House Administration Committee has also launched an investigation.





Why does it seem like they have bad blood? Well it's because they do... Check out how much of an A-HOLE Bowman is.





Jamaal Bowman is a racist, race baiting moron and MTG busted him, and this is why there is bad blood between them. This guy belongs in prison. People who pull this racist crap, and are always crying like this dirt bag Bowman need to be thrown in prison for life with his facist, socialist, communist clown show behavior.
