The Baltimore Sun reports that Rep. Andy Harris spent more money during the last election on contributions to fellow Trump supporters and right-wing candidates, than on “fundraising, campaign commercials or staff.”
The Baltimore County Republican, safe in the gerrymandered First Congressional District, “sent more than $325,000 from his 2020 campaign account to conservative groups and candidates” — including Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert and Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
He also donated $70,000 through his political action committee.

Harris is no “conservative”. He is an out and out radical right extremist. He has funded the QAnon-conspiracy believing freshman Georgia Republican, Marjorie Taylor Greene, not her GOP primary mainstream rivals; plus he funded the (like Harris himself) gun-totin’ Colorado far right freshman zealot Rep. Lauren Boebert. Also, Harris travels to his dad’s native Hungary regularly to support neo-fascist (as john McCain rightly called him) strongman and anti-semite, Viktor Orban and his Fidesz party. Harris is a full member of the anti-democratic (small “d”) looney dangerous element which represents the worst of US politics these days. Harris is a disgrace to Maryland, willfully irresponsible on Covid protections and health care in general. He is a coward who hides from criticism and is thin skinned as hell. He LIED to the voters of District 1 about only serving 6 terms. He is now running for a 7th, and his hypocrisy is underlined by his cheek in pushing a 2013 House of Representatives bill on…..term limits! The hauteur and arrogance of this dangerous fool is shocking. He does nothing for the working people of this region but plays the hot button cards on immigration, and division at every opportunity to distract the gullible. His voters need to wake up and see he doesn’t have any of their bread and butter interests at heart. We need a redrawn boundary for the district and to send Harris to live with his hero Trump in the dustbin of history. A dozen years of “Dr. No” need to end.

So what
Michael McDowell says
Well, your democratic values are pretty minimal, like your two word comment….QAnon and gun nut Congress Members are fine with you and Harris? At least you put your name to it.
Joseph Fick says
Yea, So What?
There are NO radical s on the left funded by billionaires…..Ha!
You all need to calm down.
