PA Gov. Race: DeSantis/Mastriano Pennsylvania rally appearing to move

https://www.abc27.com/pennsylvania-governor-election-2022/pa-gov-race-tickets-available-for-desantis-mastriano-pennsylvania-rally/

PITTSBURGH, Pa. (WHTM) – A Pennsylvania rally with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano appears to be moving to a new location.

According to Turning Point Action, the “Unite and Win Rally” was scheduled to be held at the David Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh on August 19.

According to the event’s website, the location for the rally is now “To Be Announced.”

abc27 has reached out to Turning Point Action and the David Lawrence Convention Center for information regarding why the rally appears to be moving. A post on Mastriano’s campaign Facebook early Tuesday morning indicates the event is still at the Pittsburgh convention center. (continues....)

Gee, I wonder why it's moving? And incidentally, the snowflakes prohibit weapons at the event.

The convention center is in walking distance and I would have been up for carrying welcoming signage to the event. I’ll clear my calendar just in case they schedule somewhere else downtown.

The idiot was in the interview for a whole 15 minutes

Republican gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano reportedly ended his interview with the January 6 committee after just 15 minutes.

The Pennsylvania state senator wanted to record the deposition about his actions on January 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol or wait until after the November election, but the House select committee declined his offer.

A source told CNN that Mastriano "didn't answer a single question" during his virtual appearance before the committee.

His attorney Tim Parlatore sent a letter last week saying the GOP gubernatorial candidate, who frequently streams his public appearances on Facebook, would not testify unless it could be recorded.
