Racist Carl Paladino Loses New York US House Primary

NBC News reports:

Nick Langworthy, the chairman of the New York GOP, bested Buffalo businessman Carl Paladino in a western New York primary brawl that doubled as a proxy battle between some of the state’s most influential Republicans, NBC News projects. Paldino’s bid brought renewed attention to his long-scrutinized rhetoric.

Soon after he entered the race, he sparked backlash over a post on his Facebook account claiming mass shootings this year in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo were “false flag” operations. Then, audio of an interview Paladino gave to Buffalo’s WBEN radio last year was unearthed in which he said Adolf Hitler was “the kind of leader we need today.”

Justt last week, Paladino told Breitbart Radio that Attorney General Merrick Garland “should not only be impeached, he probably should be executed,” after the FBI searched Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate this month.
