Fighting Big Money in Politics (w/ Karishma Manzur) | TCHR

Manzoor is a first-time candidate challenging Chris Pappas, who is supported by AIPAC and the Democratic establishment.

She is running a grassroots, honest, and unbought campaign for the people.

Advocacy for a livable minimum wage, Medicare for All, and stopping weapons transfers to Israel was repeatedly ignored by Democratic senators and representatives. Senators Shaheen and Hassan voted against increasing the minimum wage despite it being a starvation wage.

New Hampshire faces a 40,000 unit housing shortage that could grow to 90,000 by 2040 without intervention. Governor Kelly Ayotte was on the board of Blackstone, a private equity firm contributing to the housing crisis.

Five constituents were arrested for civil disobedience after Chris Pappas refused to meet with them despite twelve requests. Pappas only contacted the arrested activists after Manzoor launched her campaign and publicized the incident.

Biden was not on the New Hampshire primary ballot, forcing a write-in campaign while Dean Phillips faced DNC opposition. Biden dropped out because donors threatened to stop funding the presidential campaign. Harris campaigned with Liz Cheney instead of reaching out to the progressive base or addressing the genocide in Gaza.

The Democratic Party betrayed the working class starting with Clinton, devastating towns and paving the way for Trump.

Public service has lost its honor as multimillionaires backed by billionaires replace representatives of the people.

She is polling at 34% while Pappas is at 47%, with 18% undecided and 40% not knowing enough about her. DNC Vice Chair Malcolm Kenyatta claimed he did not know there was a primary when confronted by her supporters.

Pappas takes leadership PAC money from Schumer and Jeffries, which acts as a laundering scheme for corporate and super PAC funds. Pappas has raised $16 million with support from billionaire J.B. Pritzker and AIPAC, while she has raised $300,000.

The Sununu family has controlled the New Hampshire Republican Party for 50 years, deciding candidates rather than voters. John Sununu made $30 million in the private sector after leaving the Senate, exemplifying the corrupt lobbying revolving door.
