John McGuire's campaign is as SWAMPY as it gets
It’s no secret that John McLiar is the spearhead of what papers call the “Kevin McCarthy Vengeance Operation.” (Politico, 2/1/24)
Kevin McCarthy’s feelings are hurt, and he’s using his elitist billionaire donor network to puppeteer John McLiar’s campaign.
Bloomberg reports that hedge fund billionaires Ken Griffin and Paul Singer have put a combined $7 million into the super pac supporting John McLiar, with an unprecedented $3 million already spent on ad placement in VA-05.
While Virginia conservatives continue to warn against McLiar’s “unbridled” and “dangerous” political ambition, billionaires and establishment elitists bankroll it with unprecedented amounts of money.
That’s as swampy as it gets.

John McGuire promised he wouldn't run for Congress... (VA-05)
John McGuire pledged to constituents in 2023 that he was running for Virginia State Senate and would support Bob Good's re-election campaign. What changed? Just days after winning his state Senate election, John McGuire announced a run against Bob Good, prompting outrage from Virginia conservative leaders:
The Amelia County GOP says: “He completely promised that he wouldn’t do this, and now people don’t trust him, because he lied. He bold-faced lied to their faces,”...“People are very frustrated. Bob Good is well loved in the 5th District, and it is a waste of time, money and resources at the primary level, when we should be spending it going up against the Democrats in November.” -Cardinal News, 1/17/24
The Goochland County GOP says: "I can’t take his campaign seriously, and the people in Goochland can’t either. I don’t want any part of it, there’s too much at risk for these kinds of shenanigans.”
See why he's become infamously known as John McLiar in the video above.

John McGuire's Daily Dilemma (VA-05)
Most folks contemplate the day ahead while their coffee brews, but for John McGuire, he's choosing what office he'll run for next. From delegate to failed Congress bids to state Senate, McGuire's run for an office 6 of the last 7 years. He's become a serial candidate.
Even more, he just won his state Senate bid in November. Then he announced a bid to run against Bob Good a few days later. Unfaithful.
