House Republican Caucus Chair Elise Stefanik has rolled out her first round of EPAC endorsements for 2022, including two women running for Congress in Virginia. They are Jen Kiggans running in Virginia’s 2nd district and Jeanine Lawson in Virginia’s 10th district.
Stefanik (R-NY) also named 12 “Women to Watch” which means they may be endorsed by EPAC at a later date. What list includes Taylor Keeney in Virginia’s 7th district.
Chairwoman Elise Stefanik said the following about her choice to represent Virginia’s 10th district:
“Jeanine Lawson is a tested, proven conservative who has shown she can win, even in deep blue Northern Virginia. On the Board of Supervisors, Jeanine has stuck to our conservative values, and in Congress, she will do the same. She’s ready to take on Nancy Pelosi’s Far-Left agenda, oppose higher taxes, stand up for parents, and defend our police. Jeanine is ready to defeat the Democrats next November. And that is why I am proud to endorse Jeanine Lawson for Congress today.”
Lawson responded:
“I am honored to have earned Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s endorsement today. I look forward to joining the 18 E-PAC-endorsed women in Congress who greatly benefited from the Chairwoman’s support in their 2020 races. And with this year’s First Slate,
We will be Majority Makers next year.”

“Keeney supported calls from ex-GOP Senator Jeff Flake for then-candidate Trump to drop out of the Presidential race, just a month ahead of Election Day, a move that would have guaranteed a Clinton victory. Keeney also showed support for anti-Trump tweets from the Lincoln Project’s Rick Wilson, and never-Trump CNN contributor Ana Navarro when she called Trump and his supporters “delusional. Keeney appears to be anything but, having worked as a press assistant for Cindy McCain during John McCain’s failed 2008 presidential campaign and going on to work as press secretary for former Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell during his time in office.” The anti-Trump GOP moving in strong for ’22. This speaks for itself and should be a write-off before the race actually starts. In fact, most of these ladies endorsed or stated to date are within the same category.
In my personal opinion, Jeanine Lawson is an unchristian woman who gossips about people behind their backs instead of talking to them face to face and rumormongers about people she does not know.
She might have the right policies, but she lacks the moral character we need in Congress.
First off, only Christ can judge if one is really Christian or as you say, ‘unchristian”. Yes, we can all make the claim to be a follower of Christ, but, it means nothing. Just words. But, we do have the right to be christians in our own minds.
Second, there are no morals in Washington, DC. Father Joes’s own questionable Catholic church refused him Communion in the USA. At least until he flew over to the Vatican on the taxpayer nickel, and likely threw taxpayer compensation at the pope like some topless dancer. Then, and only then, the pope calls Father Joe a “good Catholic” and allows Father Joe to take communion somewhere in Rome, or the Vatican. It is unclear if Father Joe can take communion in the USA at this time.
Father Joe claims with words to be Catholic. But, his works or actions indicate that he is not. Same as the pope, by his sanctification of Father Joe’s works. So, the pope now claims that “good catholics” support homosexuality and abortion.
I would ask you to provide me with your biblical evidence that says that “only Christ can judge if one is really Christian,” I would love to see it.
I also find it ironic that immediately after telling me that only Christ can judge, you condemn everyone in Washington D.C. for having “no morals,” you say that Father Joe “claims with words to be Catholic, indicating that you are judging him to not be Catholic. How do you justify these descrepencies?
Sure, Matthew 7:19-22, covers all your concerns entirely. No, the American Catholic Bishops have denied Father Joe communion. Why? Because of his works (openly supporting abortion, homosexual behavior, and corruption, just for starters) not being in line with catholic beliefs. Biden has openly chosen his own path, which is about as far away from Christianity as one could get. If there were even one Christian in DC, he or she would be persecuted and run out of DC. You have no idea what you are talking about. No Christian would do what it takes to get elected, nor would they have any interest being involved in politics as they are now. Basically you are implying that if someone were an admitted say serial murderer, that if anyone says they are not Christian, they are judging that person.
Matthew 7:19-22 talks about false disciples and Jesus judging them, but it never says that we cannot judge. Try again.
“Because of his works (openly supporting abortion, homosexual behavior, and corruption, just for starters) not being in line with catholic beliefs.”
Surely, using your definition, Pope Francis falls into the same category, right?
Besides, people are not saved by works, but by grace through faith.
Then there is James 2:14-26 to answer you concerns about faith without works. You should also read further down to Matthew 7:21-24. Everyone it says. Are you not trying to customize your attempt at faux Salvation? Why would anyone want to spend eternity in Heaven with those people who claim to be Christians who are not? What makes you think Jesus will allow self proclaimed christians into Heaven? If He did so, we would have exactly what we gave on Earth now, would we not? So, you may want to try to find the truth somewhere else other than where you are now. One thing I can guarantee you, God will not allow Heaven to become what we have on Earth now. If He did, it would not be called Heaven, but called Hell.
Yeah, I know James 2:12-26 and it is clear that faith without works is dead, it doesn’t say that works create faith or that people are saved by their works.
And I read all of Mathew 7 and still don’t see where it says that I cannot make a determination on someone’s faith. Yes, the Bible says that God judges, but nowhere in Matthew 7 do it say that I cannot make a judgment about someone. Try again.
When did I say anything about my salvation? If I did, please show me where.
You are making a lot of assumptions without the facts to back them up, and twisting words to fit your narrative. You are not unlike the Sadducees and Pharisees.
My point about judging people is that it is not judging someone who is openly living outside of the beliefs of their faith. Or, generally agreed upon Biblical doctrine. Joe Biden, I would have to assume has been found to be living outside of the doctrine of the Catholic church by American Bishops according to media reports. Hence, the Bishops want to deny, or have denied him and other politicians communion. I do not see where they are judging him because he openly admits his views. My point about the pope is that he would not in my opinion succumb to Biden without some type of compensation. My opinion is based solely on what I have known about organized religions for quite awhile. Not confined to Catholic ideology. Its all about the cabbage.
I am not sure what you disagreeing with me about. As far as I know, I am not outside of the accepted meaning/understanding of any of those Biblical verses as far as I know. In other words, I am not twisting anything that I am aware of. In fact, I do not consider my self a religious person. Christ tells his followers, if you love Me keep My Commandments. I stand behind my statement that Christ determines who his followers are, and, only his followers are Christians. Not the other way around. Does a company decide who their employee’s are, or, can just anybody say they are employed by any company? There really is no difference.
I have known Jeanine Lawson for many years and she is nothing like what you claim, William. She is very much a Christian woman who I have never heard gossip about anyone. She does not tear people down but rather lifts them up. She is a joy to be around which is one of the ways she wins in blue areas of her district. Her policies and her faith make her the right person to take on Jennifer Wexton.
Well, she tore me down and lied to a group of fellow Republicans about what I believe and don’t believe.
Really, by the time Father Joe Biden gets finished, or, even in a few more days or weeks, the Anti-Christ could run and beat Wexton in the 10th.
Just this morning on the news was the Homosexual of Transportation , saying we may need to spend billions of the Friday night Republican passed infrastructure money to relocate highways that were built 60-70 years ago because they were racially located back then. Now, we need to tear em’ up, put the ghetto’s back, and relocate those highways. Not a word about empty shelves, ships full of Chinese junk, or inflation. The total collapse of this country.
Run anybody. Anyone can win against a Democrat now. The Dems will do as Trump, and burn it all down on the way out the door. Frankly, it will make no difference, we are done with either party.
If only sh-t for brains Trump would have stayed off Twitter, or, possibly it would not have make any difference. The Covid came into this country while Trump and Nancy Stupid were busy going at each other.
If one goes to Virginia Senator Mark Warner’s official page, and on the right hand top side of the page clicks the news, then press releases from the drop down, you will see a list of where the infrastructure bill money goes. This being the infrastructure bill that Republican’s passed for the Democrat in the middle of the night last Friday in the US House. Giving Father Joe Biden a tremendous victory in a so far complete failure Presidency. Of course it was rigged, they put it off till after the elections. Pelosi never have the votes in her own party. Apparently, Pelosi’s Speaker gavel has been hijacked by the little more than a political teenager, AOC.
If you scroll down the list to Broadband, it lists $65 Billion total for the states to use for Broadband. Now, under that in the next sentence, it lists that out of that $65 Billion total Broadband dollars, Virginia will receive $100 Million.
The problem? Well, Virginia’s $100 million is about .154 % of the $65 Billion. The rest of the states will split $64.9 Billion, or, 64900 x million. Yes, we will get a whopping .154% of the Democrats loot.
About as close to nothing as one can get and not call it nothing. Thank’s Father Joe, thanks for nothing. Warner and Kaine, neither has accomplished anything of note in their entire political careers. And Father Joe carried Virginia by 10 points.
What a GD joke.
