He’s running for Congress…..wait no he’s not…..oh yeah he is! When will we ever be rid of this Cox?!

We are so sorry to have to break this to you, but Dan Cox is actually running for Congress. We say “actually” because if you remember back to July he reported his own “false filing” that was done by an employee of his.

We are still super confused about this because apparently he told this guy to file for him and then he took it back and now he’s taking it back again.

An alert reader sent us this bizarre video he posted on his Facebook page announcing his run, take a lookie:

https://www.facebook.com/delegatedancox/videos/970172620748006/

The most amusing part of this low rent announcement is the dog trotting back and forth and the sounds of a cat growling in the background. Seems like the Cox pets even know this run is bullshit.

If you can’t stomach the video we can paraphrase:

We need to close the border because all the criminals crossing over and killing everyone in District 6 with the Fentanyl. We are the only ones with “reason” and “kindness” and we need to be the ones with “valor” and must have “faith over fear”. So go to his website, except don’t go to www.coxforcongress.com ,because it’s so much better.

Let’s remind y’all what kind of “reason” and “kindness” Dan practices in case we have some memory lapses.

First of all Dan Cox is a product (and a former teacher) of Wellspring (formerly Walkersville) Christian School that his father started in the 1980s. You can read the whole Washington Post article here, but we are going to focus on a couple of passages:

In a videotaped lecture posted online for a course entitled “Biblical Foundations for Family Life,” Gary Cox tells students that “the protection of the wife from satanic destruction is by being tucked under the headship of her husband as God ordained it.” Referring to Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, he adds: “There’s a picture here of someone ruling and someone being ruled … a picture of voluntary submission. It’s important that the wife, again, desire to be under submission. It’s pretty much impossible to rule over somebody that doesn’t want to be ruled.

Read that a couple of times if you need to. Dan was brought up to believe that women must submit to their husbands. S-U-B-M-I-T! How’s that reasoning for you ladies?! Shall we have a guessing game as to what kind of laws Dan would vote for that we would have to submit to?

Let’s continue on our journey:

Cox’s connection to the world of religious home schooling remains as much personal as political. Among the private security guards — wearing bulletproof vests and holstered pistols — who turned journalists away from a recent rally at a farm in Carroll Countywas a graduate of Walkersville Christian Family Schools.

It was Josiah, the candidate’s son, who at his 2015 graduation ceremony had listened with his classmates as Dan Cox urged them to take seriously the words from Romans 14:8: “Whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s.”

Whew! Whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. That’s just downright chilling.

If this isn’t enough, don’t forget about his copy and pasted law suits during Covid, his absolute trouncing during the last gubernatorial election, and the fact that though he and his children have never seen the inside of a public school as a student, he thinks that he not only knows that goes on there, but he should legislate about it.

We’ll leave you with a gallery of dumb dumbs from his Facebook page for you ponder:

And the piece d’ restitance:

Lock all those filthy teachers up! Hopefully there will be a strong enough Republican candidate to knock him out of the primary come May, but we aren’t holding our breath.

If you’ve got some extra time, go ahead and look at our past posts about him:

#NeverForget

We’ve written about some stupid shit, but damn……

Well, yeah we can.

We will begin this post by addressing the very bad defense of the High Sheriff. His innocence apparently hinges on his ignorance:

At worst, Sheriff Jenkins was duped by Krop into providing these
demonstration letters, without ever knowing or having reason to know that Krop’s motive was to
gain financially from TMGN’s special permission to possess and to import, even to obtain, these
weapons. In all the discovery produced to date, there is no material that shows or establishes any
financial incentive or fraudulent intent on the part of Sheriff Jenkins.

And, technically, that means Jenkins is too naive or dumb (or both!) to serve the county, and therefore should resign his position….forthwith! Also, ignorance is never a great legal strategy, so good luck with that!

Jenkins’ lawyer also thinks it would be “profoundly unfair” if he had to be tried in the same trial as Robert Krop. After reading through the defense that Dan Cox has concocted, we may have to say this is one of the few times we are in agreement with the High Sheriff. Today, the Baltimore Banner reported on Cox’s strategy and we’ve seen some doozies from Dan, but this one really takes the cake!

Krop’s attorney, meanwhile, filed a scathing, 107-page motion making a wide variety of allegations, including calling the prosecution politically motivated and questioning the Ukrainian background of the lead ATF agent on the case.

“If [the agent] has not denounced his Ukrainian citizenship the warrant must be immediately quashed and the indictment dismissed,” wrote Krop’s attorney, former Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Cox.

We are old enough to remember when Republicans used to be anti-Russia. And ANYONE who showed any pro-Russian inclination was labeled an anti-American communist! Oh how the winds of Trump have changed these folks! And to let it permeate your legalese and thereby jeopardize the freedom of your client is top shelf MAGA!

Also, if Dan thinks that he can question people’s ethnicities we are going to throw that strategy right back in his face! According to Wikipedia:

The surname Cox is of English or Welsh origin, and may have originated independently in several places in Great Britain, with the variations arriving at a standard spelling only later. There are also two native Scottish & Irish surnames which were anglicized into Cox.

Therefore we demand that Cox publicly denounce King Charles II immediately. For how do we know Dan’s not a Tory trying to bring America under monarchical control? Next thing we know he’ll be making us drink warm beer and eat beans and mash!

Yes, Dan it sounds just as stupid when you do it.

ICYMI, The Washington Post ran a great article about some former members of Dan Cox’s father’s homeschool racket. Make sure you read it, but here’s our favorite quote:

“People who think the public schools are indoctrinating don’t know what indoctrination is. We were indoctrinated,” Aaron says. “It’s not even comparable.”

The aforementioned article enlightens us to the fact that in Dan Cox’s world women are only suitable to be mothers and sparing the rod is a big no-no when it comes to disciplining your children.

Thank you Maryland for not saddling us with this guy!

What a great time to be #TeamRussia!

We have two local office runners who feel Team Russia is the side to take! First up, insurrectionist Dan Cox! Of course it’s no surprise that he falls on the side of Trump who called Putin’s aggressive actions genius. Behold:

We are always amazed by his poor writing skills.

Here’s what he’s liking on Twitter today!

Perennial school board candidate has many green thoughts about the situation, and of course it’s ignorant as all get out.

Oh it’s exactly what it seems dummy.
Uh.. God the world this woman lives in.
What an intelligent, classy, and well formed thought!
Sigh.

Stay vigilant folks! We cannot let people with poor judgment into our political arena!

A potpourri of dumbf@ckery!

This election year is going to be a hot mess! And this is coming from a group of gals who followed Billy Shreve, Kirby Deluater, Blaine Young, and Tony Chmelik for years! We must guard our local government against the people who have no idea what’s going on outside their partisan bubble.

We’ll get you all nice and updated with our perennial foe, Cindy Rose, first! If you want to steel yourself with a shot of tequila, you’ll get no judgement from us!

When’s the last time she was in the company of other humans? Any English teachers want to use their red pen on this one?

Nope! Grow up! (Editor’s note: do y’all think this means she reaaaaally wants to be able to use the n word?)

Seriously!

Science teachers beware!

This last post is seriously one of the dumbest things we have ever read. Why fund studies? Why do experiments? Cindy has all the anecdotal evidence y’all will ever need! Folks, if we allow someone who wants to ban books, remove sex education from the curriculum because she finds it disrespectful, and apparently believes her stories trump peer-reviewed studies, why do we even have a school system? But that’s the point: make no mistake, that’s the absolute goal of Cindy and these other Republicans. They want to dismantle and delegitimize public education.

Yeah, that’s the reason. And so very rich coming from someone who wants to restrict information in the schools! And we think you mean “where,” not “were.”

Unfortunately we need to move on to Dan Cox and his delusional campaign for governor.

Dan claims that he’s a lawyer, but man his lack of knowledge is just embarrassing.

Seems like a good time to bring this back up!

Wondering what he’s been up to during this legislative session?

NB: Not that we would have been Tories back in the day, but Cox aligns himself instinctively? habitually? both? with overthrowing the government. Since he thinks Pence is a traitor, given all we know about current events, it’s a terrible look.

The opposition to a ghost gun ban is really special in light of the fact that a child was shot at a Montgomery County high school recently with a ghost gun. Dan (who didn’t attend public school nor do his children) doesn’t seem to realize that not all parents are good parents, and that for some kids school is the only place where they can talk to a trusted adult. Forcing school personnel to disclose certain information can lead to real harm to these children, both psychologically and physically. Impeaching an out-going governor is also a fun throw-in! Wonder where he copied and pasted that from! But Dan doesn’t live in the real world, just click on through this link to see our previous reporting on his past antics.

One last look at Dan’s amazing logic:

Whoa! That’s a lot to unpack! Maybe he is (gasp!) even more confused than we thought, though, since the Tories would have thought much the same of General Washington’s guerilla warriors. Pick an idea, Dan!

Isn’t it stunning how many Republicans worship Putin these days?

We’ll end on the other Republican candidate for governor, since dismantling public education seems to be the theme of this election year:

Let’s unpack this a bit shall we? Charter schools have not shown any better outcomes, especially the for-profit ones. Which are the ones Republicans push for because it makes money for their cronies. Schools have been open and those that have closed around the country have been the ones WITHOUT mask mandates. Curriculums and standards ARE already posted online, stop being lazy and look. What defines partisan politics? We would love an answer please! And do these safe school initiatives include keeping weapons out of the schools? We’ll be waiting……

Polls and LTEs! Local races are about to get CRAZY!

A very horribly written and rambling letter appeared in the Frederick News Post from none other than insurrectionist Del. Dan. Mainly it was a bunch of straw man attacks against Jan Gardner, Kai Hagen, and Jessica Fitzwater. One LOL part was when he tried to fear monger everyone into believing that COVID-19 lockdowns would become a permanent fixture by asking this very serious question:

Can you imagine COVID-style lockdowns perpetually mandated because of a County Executive Hagen worried about climate change? 

He’s even worse at “Just asking questions” than Glenn Beck!

This next part however, makes us think all these Republicans have entered some type of Gaslighting boot camp:

The use of quotes is really interesting, isn’t it? And don’t you love all the dog whistles? “…locals who have lived here all or most of our lives, ..attractive in our heritage and history, protect my freedom and way of life”! I mean really Dan, you aren’t even trying to hide who you are any more. And as for the insurrectionist claim, look we have receipts!

Take a look at that time stamp folks! Well into an hour of the Capitol breach!

We would be amiss to leave out another “local legend” who is trying to slither his way back into our local political scene. This was sent to us by an alert reader earlier this week:

We couldn’t stop snickering because: a. Who did this poll and please say it was expensive, and b. We don’t understand the conclusions that he came to from this data! Not at all!

Lots to take in, we know. Remain vigilant, last thing we need around here is a County Executive Cox or Mayor Young!

Anti-Democracy is the theme of day!

Every day seems to be getting crazier and crazier doesn’t it? Like we are in an endless spiral of terribleness that doesn’t seem to be easing up. The only bright spot is the very real and verifiable fact that Joseph R. Biden won the presidency! And, unless someone invents a new way of counting that makes positive numbers go negative, there’s nothing any of these goons can do about that!

Except when it isn’t, like in the case of counting votes. 1+1+1, etc…

We really aren’t too worried about all the legal challenges because just look at the head of the Trump legal team today:

Can these people do anything right? It’s a rhetorical question folks!

We know it’s all just nonsense. But that hasn’t stopped Delegate Dan from riding on up to Pennsylvania to be a part of this very bad and dumb legal team. We’ve been going back and forth on Twitter with him, because as futile as it really is to argue with him there are others watching. Here’s a sampling of the Lord’s work we’ve been doing lately:

There is no steal no matter what these people would like you to think. It’s really amazing how these same people who claim they are Patriots and “TRUE” Americans, become just the opposite when the democratic process doesn’t go in their favor. Then, like magic, they are very fine fascists. Not to mention liars. They would rather light the Constitution on fire, destroy our institutions, and make all future elections seem nefarious than admit that their narcissistic, incompetent, man-child of a candidate lost. They would put our nation in danger’s way by not allowing the next administration the information they need to combat an ever growing threat of a global pandemic, because they cannot fathom that a majority of Americans decided we needed to go down another path. What kind of people are they? What kind of legislator is Cox? Not one we want to keep.

While we are on the subject of Cox, read this very fine article that explains how he lost YET another lawsuit in which his goal seems to be to get as many people killed by the pandemic as possible. What a hero! Remember this, folks, when he tries to run for Hough’s Senate seat in a few years time. We need to leave these people who work 100% on emotion, 0% on information, by the wayside once and for all. Vigilance!

We have to turn our attention to one more local group that seems to be bent on this very dangerous, false, and self-serving narrative about fraudulent votes. If you’ve been a long time reader of ours, you’ll remember that the Frederick Conservative Club was formed as a reaction to Kirby losing to Kathy Afzali in the County Executive Race back in 2018. Kirby turned on anyone who supported Kathy or Regina Williams and a new group (whose board members change quite frequently) was formed that allegedly represented the true conservatives of this fine county. *Notice the pattern of not accepting the outcome of elections*

Well, a few days ago an alert reader sent us some pictures that appeared on their Facebook page. A group of them rented a bus to go to the Thousands for MAGA parade, and upon return there were some photos posted. However the last two pictures were not of the MAGA parade but of two very separate and very far away events! This alert reader attempted to point out this very deceptive error to the MAGA folks, but instead of taking the pictures down they removed his comments and banned him from the page. We also checked the origin of the photos and behold exhibits A and B:

Deception seems to be the name of the game around here lately. YOU LOST, people, and as we told Dan Cox you really need to get through your stages of grief a lot quicker than this. Because, whether you want to acknowledge it or not, you are tearing this country apart and quite honestly you should be ashamed of yourselves.

If you want to see some great video of the Thousands MAGA March, look at this clip from the Daily Show, it really tells you all you need to know:
