Dean Jackson

There's a really good website called opensecrets.org and you can search any candidate there and see, I mean, everything's there, the stocks that they own,

Committees that they sit on their votes, their funds and funding.

So I use that a lot and I just pull up snippets and I'm sharing them on social media.

And as I think I mentioned to you, we're going to start a paid campaign next door this week, actually.

And so far I've just been doing it on my own personal Facebook page.

But as an example, I mean, people are shocked to.

to learn that my opponent has $3 million in her campaign war chest, and she will spend it all to stay in power.

But one of the expenditures I just ran across in OpenSecrets.org, in the last election cycle, she spent $79,000 at a steakhouse in D.C.

called Charlie Palmer's.

There's multiple Charlie Palmer's.

It's a very upscale restaurant, but...

It just kind of goes against the conservative grain to think that you would spend $79,000, 30 separate trips there, 30 separate receipts totaling $79,000.

So about $2,600 per time she goes to dinner there.

So she's obviously taking people there.

And I'm just wondering if any furniture factory worker from the mountains of North Carolina were involved, were invited to attend those dinners.

But it's unbelievable.

People don't realize that she happens to sit on the one that she was chairman of the or chairwoman of the House Education Committee for years.

She's now on another committee that actually manages dinners.

and approves the bills that get to the floor of Congress.

Those chairmanships to get those require a major contribution of money that gets transferred from, in her case, from her campaign account to the national Republican finance account.
