Herschel Walker COLLAPSES Over Paid Abortion, Hannity Can't Save Him
Herschel Walker, Republican nominee for US Senator from Georgia, is facing a scandal over allegations that he paid for an ex-girlfriend to get an abortion in 2009. The woman, who asked not to be identified, supported her claims with a $575 receipt from the abortion clinic, a bank deposit receipt from Walker, and a get-well card from the former football player. Walker allegedly told the woman at the time it would be “more convenient” to terminate the pregnancy than for her to have the child. Herschel has already faced controversy for being an absentee father to a number of children, but many on the right were willing to give him a pass on that. Now, he’s once again been exposed as a total hypocrite and has to do damage control. Walker went on Sean Hannity’s show and claimed that he didn’t know whether he knew the woman making the allegation, said he sends money to lots of people, and that this story is a distraction from the real issues of the day like immigration and inflation. We’ll know in the coming days whether this scandal makes any difference in the polls or if Republicans will once again hold their own to a different standard.
MyPillow Mike Lindell Praying for Me, Has No Memory of Being on My Show
MyPillow guy Mike Lindell once again showed up in the comments of The David Pakman Show Facebook page, and he seems to have lost all recollection that he appeared on the program last year. Lindell commented on a picture of David holding his daughter and a cup of coffee, writing, “Praying for you David…. You don’t know me but you sure enjoy attacking me … would love to have you on my show.” As a user named Hailee correctly pointed out, “Mike Lindell you’ve literally been a guest on his show within the last year or so.” We would love to have Mike back on the program, or David could go on one of his shows for the first time. There’s probably a lot to talk about including the FBI investigation into Lindell and the latest conspiracy theories about the supposedly rigged voting machines.

Sick-Sounding Marco Rubio Caught Lying on Live TV
The state of Florida is assessing the wreckage and cleaning up after Hurricane Ian while also preparing for important midterm elections. Senator Marco Rubio went on CNN over the weekend to talk about Hurricane Ian, and he didn’t seem to do himself any favors. State of the Union host Dana Bash asked Rubio why he wants federal funds for Florida yet didn’t vote for aid for Superstorm Sandy after it devastated New York and New Jersey. Rubio tried to correct the record by claiming the bill had a lot of pork in it, so while he supported funds for cleanup efforts, he didn’t want to pay for pet projects in other states. Bash struck back at him that the supposed pork Marco took issue with were actually damages caused by Sandy and other natural disasters. These Republicans think they can explain away their hypocrisy, and too often they get away with it. Luckily, Marco Rubio wasn’t able to this time.
From yesterday’s show:
Republican Will Ban Pole Dancing and Porn in Schools (???)
Doug Mastriano, the Republican nominee for Governor of Pennsylvania, said at an event over the weekend that if he wins his race, he’ll ban pole dancing and pornography in public schools. Mastriano said as an applause line, “on day one, the sexualization of our kids, pole dancing and all this other crap that is going on will be forbidden in our schools.” He followed up, “on day one, all the graphic, pornographic books that are in elementary schools will be pulled out.” Of course, there isn’t any pole dancing and pornography in public schools, but just by asserting that there is, Mastriano will get a sizable chunk of his supporter base to believe kids are being sexualized and that he’s the only one who can stop it. Doug went on to claim that he will eliminate the teaching of critical race theory in public schools, which is yet another one of these buzz terms for folks on the far right.
