Catalina Lauf, a former Trump administration staffer announced her campaign to unseat GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger. Lauf, a 27-year-old from Illinois previously served as a top advisor to the United States Department of Commerce. Kinzinger has been the subject of disdain from the Republcian Party after he voted to impeach Trump on insurrection charges.
The Daily Caller reports:
“As President, Donald Trump lifted millions out of poverty, invested historically in our schools, hospitals, and communities, restored America’s status as the strongest nation on earth, and defended the right to life, our Second Amendment, our borders, and our faith,” Lauf’s statement read. “Almost 75 million Americans supported that America First Agenda – but it is clear now that Congressman Kinzinger is a closet liberal who would be better suited for a job as MSNBC or the Lincoln Project. Without question, he cannot be trusted to stand up for his constituents, for President Trump, or for our shared conservative values.”
“That’s why today, I am proud to announce my candidacy for United States Congress,” her statement continued. “Now more than ever, America needs true conservative leaders to oppose the radical agenda of Joe Biden and continue the legacy of President Trump – and as a former advisor to his Administration, I look forward to carrying that torch.”
“This wasn’t an easy decision, but Kinzinger has long proven he does not work in the best interest of the people in Northern Illinois who elected him. I grew up here. Being one of only a small group of Republicans voting for the 2nd impeachment of President Trump is just one of many instances of how out of touch he is with his constituents,” Lauf said in a statement to The Daily Caller regarding her decision to run.
“Illinoisans, frankly, Americans all across the board are tired of politicians who go to Washington and forget the people who believed in them enough to send them there to be their voice. Until term limits pass, it’s now more than ever important we hold them accountable in the electoral process, and the only way to do that is by challenging them sometimes in our own Party.”
I have officially announced my campaign for Congress in Illinois' 16th district.
Adam Kinzinger's vote to impeach Trump was just one of his MANY betrayals to his constituents.
I will need your help as I take on Adam & the establishment.
Please RT & follow my campaign! 🇺🇸

We do need good people to replace those who are RINO/Democrats!
Alas. There may never be another real election. If there is, it will be because democrats permit it, which they will never do if they aren’t assured of winning. Then of course, she can run, but will lose. This assessment sounds dire. But, just watch!
Free and fair elctions are a thing of the past!
State legislatures must do a 100% deletion of current voter lists and start from scratch.
Keep praying and “Go For It”!
They only thing worse than a RINO is a democrat! Oust as many as possible!!
Correction he is a closet leftist, the dems are not liberals they are leftists.
Its definitely time for all people of good will and good faith to take a stand against evil.
Doesn’t stand a snow ball’s chance in hell! Fair and free elections are a thing of the past. Also gone is the Supremes. Except for a few, the justices are all in the tank for the socialists.
Election rules and laws were ignored in my state for sure; then these same legislators would not meet to effectively remedy this. Our state supreme court and the US supreme court just refused to even hear and honor the many affidavits, signed by the appointed poll watchers. We must do better in 22
Take-out this frickking RINO..,these a-holes go to the swamp, to represent ‘lobbyist, corporations & special-interest.
Kinzinger might as well just say he is a DemoRAT. His ethics SUCK!
