Can you imagine having the nerve to announce your candidacy to represent Long Island residents in Congress when you haven't lived on Long Island for two decades?

Not only is Michelle Bond a fake Republican, she recently arrived on Long Island to buy Lee Zeldin's open seat in Congress with Democrat money after living and working for two decades in the DC swamp.

This June, Michelle Bond became a registered voter in Suffolk County for the first time in her life, started a short-term lease on a small apartment in Port Jefferson...and held a housewarming party for her new multimillion-dollar mansion in Potomac, Maryland!

Where do you think she actually lives?

The Housewarming Party for her Maryland Mansion was on June 18 -- but this fake Republican also wants us to believe she lives on Long Island? Ok.

That is correct, folks, Michelle Bond is not only bought and paid for by the same Democrats who funded Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry and radical socialists like Bernie Sanders, Ro Khanna, and Jamaal Bowman -- she has lived for the past two decades in the DC area and from the looks of it, she plans to stay there for a while...

Bond held a housewarming party at her new mansion in Potomac, Maryland on June 18. Here's the invitation - we blocked out her children's faces and her street address:

Even the phone number listed on Bond's June 1, 2022 New York State voter registration has a Washington DC area code:

Rule #1 for Congressional candidates: Have a clue of where the district is actually located.

Our Congressional District now includes the entire north shore of Suffolk County, from the east end to the Town of Huntington...but it definitely does not include West Islip.

Note to Democrat Michelle Bond: West Islip is NOT part of our Congressional District

Democrat Michelle Bond is so unfamiliar with the Congressional District in which she is running, she prominently featured a photo of West Islip -- nowhere near our Congressional District -- when she launched her campaign website in June.

Michelle Bond is deeply entrenched in the DC swamp. She is a cryptocurrency lobbyist and former Obama administration lawyer.

Long Island's priorities are not Michelle Bond's priorities. Bond wants us to believe she is one of us but as the Messenger Papers reports in their article, Ain’t No Sunshine When She’s Bond — The Crypto Queen is Very Shady:

"A simple Internet search will show Bond’s secrets that prove what her intentions are as she runs for Congress. Bond has spent the last 2 years lobbying Congress for the crypto sector to achieve a self-governing status and to avoid following the rules from regulators like the SEC and Commodity Futures Trade (CFTC)."

Nick LaLota is a lifelong Long Islander, so naturally Michelle Bond wants to deceive voters into believing that she is one too. As the Messenger Papers point out in their article, Hey Crypto Queen — Long Island Is Not For Sale:

"Since 2004, Bond has lived and worked in D.C.  Suffolk County did not see a dime from Bond.  Up until announcing her run for Congress, Bond lived in the D.C. and Maryland area."

"She is using the address of her rented, tiny apartment in Port Jefferson, in a newly constructed apartment complex, while she resides with her two children and boyfriend in her multimillion-dollar mansion in Maryland.

"Why would a millionaire live in a rented apartment?"

Who exactly does Michelle Bond think she's fooling?

Share this with every Long Island Republican you know and please remember to vote for Nick LaLota in the Republican Congressional Primary on August 23.

The North Shore Leader has endorsed Nick LaLota for Congress and exposes the Democrats' strategy of sneaking fake candidates into Republican Primaries across the country.

**Endorsement: Nick LaLota for US Congress**

Republicans Beware - Nancy Pelosi and the Washington Democrats are injecting and funding fake candidates into Republican primaries all across America. And Long Island's Republican primary in District 1 (Huntington, Smithtown, Pt Jefferson, East End) is their latest target. That is why every Republican must vote for Nick Lalota.

On Thursday night, Republican Governor candidate and Congressman Lee Zeldin was attacked by a knife-wielding thug at a campaign rally in upstate New York after Kathy Hochul released his campaign schedule to the public! 

Congressman Zeldin predicted that the attacker would be released under New York's Bail Laws the night of the attack:

"His words as he tried to stab me a few hours ago were 'you’re done,' but several attendees, including my running mate Alison Esposito, quickly jumped into action and tackled the guy.

"Law enforcement was on the scene within minutes. The attacker though will likely be instantly released under New York’s soft on crime laws."

Republican candidates Nick LaLota, Senator Mario Mattera, Assemblyman Keith Brown and Aamir Sultan have responded to the assassination attempt,condemning the Democrats' disastrous cashless bail law that put the attacker back on the streets on Friday --

***

Nick LaLota, our official Republican and Conservative Party-endorsed candidate for Congress, stated on Friday:

"Last night my good friend Lee Zeldin was attacked by a mad man with a knife. There are photos. There’s even video.

"But under NY Dems’ Bail Reform laws, this lunatic is REQUIRED to be back on the street this morning. Unlike almost every other state, a New York Judge cannot take a defendant’s danger to society into account when deciding whether or not to hold him until a future hearing or trial.

"Like Lee says, this year is New York’s final stand. NY Dems have crushed our economy, trampled on our freedoms and placed our safety into peril. Want change? Vote for the Republican-Conservative candidates who will restore New York as the Empire State."

On Thursday night, immediately after the attack, Nick posted:

"Our Governor candidate is an Army Lieutenant Colonel who deployed to a combat zone. Our Lt. Governor candidate is a recently retired NYPD Deputy Inspector who went hand to hand with some of NYC’s nastiest thugs. New Yorkers should be confident that not even threats to their own personal safety will deter Lee Zeldin and Alison Esposito from leading New York in a new and better direction!"

Nick LaLota faces a challenge from two Democrats in the August 23 Congressional Republican Primary Election and needs your vote!

Lifelong conservative Republican, Annapolis graduate and Navy Veteran Nick LaLota is our ONLY Republican and Conservative Party-endorsed candidate for Congress.

Nick faces a Primary Election for the Republican Congressional nomination on August 23. His opponents? Two Democrats.

Yes, this is actually happening.

In Biden's America, nothing surprises us anymore.

We already knew that DC lobbyist Michelle Bond was a registered Democrat, worked for President Obama, donated $6,550 to national Democrats and rented an apartment in New York in order to run for Congress. What we found out this weekend was that she brought her out-of-state liberal friends along with her.

FEC filings revealed that Bond received 83% of her itemized contributions from donors who live outside of the State of New York, and accepted numerous donations from registered Democrats. Bond received $61,000 - over 25% - of her itemized campaign donations from donors who have given over a quarter million dollars to Democratic Presidential candidates Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry and radical socialists like Bernie Sanders, Ro Khanna, and Jamaal Bowman.

Anthony Figliola also registered as a Democrat, donated $3,942 to Democrats -- including $1,000 to Andrew Cuomo, served as Executive Director of the Brookhaven Democrats, and is now running for the Republican nomination.

"Bond, an Obama lawyer, and Figliola, a Cuomo Democrat, are imposters and our voters will see through this cynical deception to steal a Republican nomination with money from liberal mega donors," said Huntington GOP Chairman Tom McNally. 

Suffolk GOP County Chairman Jesse Garcia condemned Democrats’ efforts to infiltrate the Republican primary:

“With each day that passes, we’re finding out how deep DC lobbyist Michelle Bond’s roots are with the Democrat party. We already knew that Bond was a registered Democrat who worked for Obama and donated thousands to anti-Second Amendment, pro-abortion national Democrats. But today’s FEC report reveals that Bond accepted $61,000 worth of campaign contributions from far-left mega-donors who have helped put radical socialists like Bernie Sanders, Jamaal Bowman, and Ro Khanna in office.

“Today, I’m calling on all Suffolk Republicans to reject these calculated attempts by Democrats to infiltrate our Republican primaries. We Republicans deserve a nominee who is conservative, honest and patriotic. That is why 45 Suffolk County Republican Party and Elected Officials have endorsed Navy Veteran Nick LaLota for Congress. Suffolk Voters can trust the Army-Navy team— with Zeldin as Governor and LaLota in Congress!” Garcia said.

UPDATE: The North Shore Leader Endorses Nick LaLota for Congress and Calls Out Democrats for Sneaking Fake Candidates into Republican Primaries

Huntington, NY – Huntington Republican Party Chairman Thomas McNally was unanimously re-elected at the Committee’s reorganizational meeting held at the Huntington American Legion Post 360 in Halesite on Wednesday, July 6.

“It is a humbling honor to have your support and be re-elected to serve as your leader,” said Chairman Tom McNally to a crowded room of committee members, including Town Supervisor Ed Smyth, Councilman Dr. Dave Bennardo, Councilman Sal Ferro, Town Clerk Andrew Raia, Highway Superintendent Andre Sorrentino, County Legislator Stephanie Bontempi, County Legislator Manny Esteban, former Town Clerk Jo-Ann Raia and retired Suffolk County Supreme Court Judge Jerry Asher.

Chairman Tom McNally, Congressman Lee Zeldin, and future Vice Chairman Jim Leonick at a Zeldin for Governor event in May 2022.

Chairman Tom McNally was first elected at a special meeting held in September 2020 to fill the vacancy created by the death of former Chairman Toni Tepe. Taking on the role of Huntington Republican Party leader six weeks before Election Day 2020, Chairman McNally presided over two General Elections giving the Huntington Republicans their largest victories in decades, starting with the election of State Senator Mario Mattera (SD2) and Assemblyman Keith Brown (AD12) in 2020.

Chairman McNally then began to deliver on his promise to expand the ranks of the Huntington Republican Committee with a “big tent” philosophy, doing outreach to grow the party and recruit supporters of diverse backgrounds while undertaking the next election cycle, which brought unprecedented gains in November 2021.
