For Charlie Kirk, conservatives will knock 500,000 New Jersey doors



“Doors win wars” is more than just a slogan. It’s a proven fact.

In Pennsylvania, our Citizens Alliance team executed the largest Republican ballot-chasing program in the country, knocking on more than 510,000 doors in 2024. The public goal was for Donald Trump to capture 33% of the mail-in vote. He earned 34.5% — and with it, Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes. That effort helped re-elect Trump as president.

The ‘New Jersey Chase’ is about more than one race. It’s about creating a model Republicans can replicate across the country.

Now we’re bringing that same fight to New Jersey.

With mail-in ballots already hitting mailboxes in the governor’s race, the “New Jersey Chase” has officially begun. The mission is simple: flip New Jersey red.

We aim to deliver a victory for Jack Ciattarelli, flip key state assembly seats, and push conservative leadership into county and local offices up and down the ballot.

Democrats have run a ballot-harvesting machine in New Jersey for decades. They exploited mail-in rules while Republicans sat on the sidelines, often complaining about the system instead of competing inside it. That ends now.

I’ve said it before: I don’t like mail-in voting. But I like losing even less. Until the rules change, we can’t let Democrats dominate the battlefield uncontested. The rules are the rules. Our job is to win under them.

So far, our New Jersey Chase team has knocked on 284,565 doors, encouraging Republicans to request, complete, and return their mail-in ballots.

Each door we knock and each conversation we have are about more than one election. It’s about building a culture of action on the right.

This mission is personal. On September 10, when my friend and mentor Charlie Kirk was assassinated for standing up for free expression and American values, something changed in all of us. I don’t need to spell it out — we saw it. The world saw it.

Charlie believed in the power of dialogue to move people off the sidelines and into the fight. He also believed in me.

When the Trump campaign needed someone to design and execute a ballot-chasing strategy in Pennsylvania, Charlie asked me to take it on. Together, we proved the establishment wrong.

Now, in his memory, I’m channeling that same fight into New Jersey.

Our opponents are entrenched, ruthless, and armed with decades of political machinery. But they underestimate grassroots patriots who are willing to put their shoulders to the wheel and take their state back.

Jack Ciattarelli has the vision and leadership to restore sanity in Trenton. His victory would prove to the nation that even in deep-blue territory, conservatives can organize, fight, and win.

The “New Jersey Chase” is about more than one race. It’s about creating a model Republicans can replicate across the country — a model that turns every Trump supporter into a Trump voter, ensures every conservative voice is heard, and makes sure every ballot is counted.

We are building a red wall, one door at a time.

In New Jersey, we’ll prove the future belongs to those who knock, not those who sit back and hope. By November 4, we will have knocked on 500,000 doors.

For Charlie. For New Jersey. For America.

Pressure mounts for New Jersey Democrat gubernatorial candidate as past catches up to her



With just over a month left before the election, the New Jersey governor's race is heating up. And more scrutiny about Democrat gubernatorial candidate Mikie Sherrill's past is mounting as a past scandal resurfaces.

Blaze News previously reported on Mikie Sherrill tripling her wealth while in Congress with alleged insider trading. Now, however, details have emerged that she was implicated in a cheating scandal that precluded her from walking in her U.S. Naval Academy graduation ceremony.

'Today’s admission by Congresswoman Sherrill that she was implicated in, and punished for, her involvement in the largest cheating and honor code scandal in the history of the United States Navy is both stunning and deeply disturbing.'

The New Jersey Globe reported that Sherrill's class at the U.S. Naval Academy was involved in a large-scale cheating scandal in which two dozen of Sherrill's classmates were expelled for obtaining and sharing a copy of an electrical engineering test in December 1992.

One of the midshipmen in the class reportedly estimated that "more than 80%" of the 663 people who took the test the next day had seen the exam. Others were punished for not speaking out about this cheating, as was the case with Sherrill.

“I didn’t turn in some of my classmates, so I didn’t walk, but graduated and was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Navy, serving for nearly 10 years with the highest level of distinction and honor,” Sherrill said, according to NJ.com.

“Today’s admission by Congresswoman Sherrill that she was implicated in, and punished for, her involvement in the largest cheating and honor code scandal in the history of the United States Navy is both stunning and deeply disturbing,” Jack Ciattarelli's campaign manager, Eric Arpert, told the New Jersey Globe. “For eight years, Mikie Sherrill has built her entire political brand around her time at the Naval Academy and in the Navy, all the while concealing her involvement in the scandal and her punishment. The people of New Jersey deserve complete and total transparency.”

Upon review of the 1994 graduation program first obtained by the New Jersey Globe, Blaze News can confirm that Sherrill's name does not appear in the document.

As has been widely reported, Sherrill has made her military service as a U.S. Naval Academy graduate and helicopter pilot a major part of her political identity. Despite the scandal, she graduated on time and served in the Navy for nine years before her retirement in 2003.

“Jack [Ciattarelli] continues to try and use any avenue he can to execute the MAGA playbook of smearing military service,” she said. “Now, his latest attempt is to go after a 30-year-old widely reported incident when I was an undergraduate at the Naval Academy.”

According to an Emerson College Polling/PIX11/The Hill poll from September 22-23, Sherrill and Ciattarelli are now tied at 43% approval, closing Sherrill's lead in past polls with just over a month before the November 4 election.

'Tripled her net worth': Democrat gubernatorial candidate slammed for suspected insider trading



New Jersey gubernatorial candidates clashed at the first of two debates on Sunday ahead of the November 4 election. Though left unmentioned by legacy media outlets, Democrat candidate Rep. Mikie Sherrill has yet to answer some serious questions about alleged insider trading.

Sherrill's opponent, former Assemblyman Jack Ciattarelli, and other Republican groups have been sounding the alarm on what appears to be a record of undisclosed stock trades by Sherrill that may have greatly enhanced her net worth.

Sherrill 'raked in over $7 MILLION from stock trades while in Congress — and broke the law doing it.'

“In the several years that she’s been in Congress, she’s tripled her net worth,” Ciattarelli claimed during Sunday's debate.

In a clip from Charlamagne tha God's "The Breakfast Club" podcast posted by the Republican Governors Association, Sherrill was asked if she made $7 million in stock trading. In a stilted answer, Sherrill said, "I, I haven't ... I, I don't believe I did, but I'd have to go see what, what that was alluding to, again what kinda came from ..."

The official GOP X account echoed this accusation on Monday, saying Sherrill "raked in over $7 MILLION from stock trades while in Congress — and broke the law doing it."

According to the Washington Free Beacon's comparison of Sherrill's 2019 and 2024 financial disclosures, Sherrill reported assets in the range of $733,209 and $4,321,000 in 2019. In 2024, her reported assets grew between the range of $4,840,076 and $13,975,000. The $7 million benchmark is a calculation of the averages of these ranges.

Members of Congress make a yearly salary of $174,000, according to congress.gov. Sherrill was first elected to Congress in 2018.

The Free Beacon noted concerns about Sherrill's stock portfolio during the pandemic, which has grown immensely in the ensuing years. She was also reportedly fined $400 in December for failing to disclose $350,000 in stocks from her husband's company, UBS, where he is an executive.

The New York Post reported that Sherrill currently has a commanding lead in the polls except for an internally commissioned poll from Ciattarelli's campaign, which gives him the lead by a slim margin.

Gary Busey learns his fate for criminal sexual contact at horror film convention



Hollywood actor Gary Busey in July pleaded guilty to one count of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact for inappropriately touching a woman at a horror film convention in New Jersey in 2022.

As part of a plea agreement, three additional counts of criminal sexual contact were dismissed.

'It was not an accidental touching.'

On Thursday, Superior Court Judge Gwendolyn Blue sentenced the 81-year-old celebrity actor to probation. Busey also was ordered to have no contact with the victims.

Busey appeared at the sentencing hearing in Camden County court through a Zoom video call from his home in California. The Oscar nominee declined to speak during the hearing when the judge gave him the opportunity.

"I'm following my attorney's advice," Busey is seen saying on video while responding to Judge Blue.

The Cherry Hill Courier-Post reported that Busey's defense attorney, Blair Zwillman, requested that his client be punished only by a monetary fine.

The defense attorney cited health issues plaguing his client that included early dementia and mobility problems.

Zwillman told the court that Busey suffered a permanent brain injury from a 1988 motorcycle accident and that his client has "mild cognitive impairments," hearing loss, and other health issues.

However, the judge highlighted Busey's prior legal issues. In 2007, Busey was sentenced to probation for charges of trespass and disorderly conduct/fighting. He was sentenced to probation for a hit-and-run accident in 2021.

"He is happy to move on from this circumstance in New Jersey, which has led to extremely negative press for over three years — to no fault of his own," Zwillman told Page Six.

According to the New York Times, Zwillman on Saturday said that his client "is pleased that the case has been resolved and that he can go on with his life without any continuing, daily public adversity."

The incident occurred in August 2022 during the semi-annual Monster-Mania Con — a horror film and memorabilia fan convention.

As Blaze News reported in August, the "Lethal Weapon" actor was a featured guest for the three-day event at the Doubletree Hotel in Camden County. He was one of the celebrities who met with fans and signed autographs.

Three women accused Busey of groping them during a photo session with fans at the Monster-Mania Con.

Citing a probable cause statement, the Courier-Post reported that Busey put his face near a woman's breasts and "asked her where she got them, before attempting to unlatch her bra strap."

The Courier-Post reported, "He was accused of touching the clothed buttocks of at least two female fans during a photo shoot at the August 2022 show."

When TMZ asked Busey about the allegations in August 2022, he replied, "None of that happened."

"It was a partner, a camera lady, and me, and two girls. ... It took less than 10 seconds, and they left. Then they made up a story that I assaulted them sexually, and I did not. Nothing happened; it's all false," Busey said at the time.

However, Busey told Judge Blue during his virtual court appearance last month, "It was not an accidental touching."

The actor also is facing a civil suit in state court from two New York women seeking damages from the Monster-Mania Con incident.

Busey is known for appearances in movies such as "Predator 2," "The Buddy Holly Story," "Point Break," and "Under Siege."

NYT Says Palestinian Author ‘Canceled’ Over Jewish ‘Concerns’—Without Noting Her Praise for Oct 7 as an ‘Indigenous Uprising’

When the New York Times reported a Palestinian author’s New Jersey book launch event was canceled over the Jewish community’s "concerns," it omitted a key detail: The concerns stemmed from the author’s praise for Hamas's Oct. 7 massacre and anti-Semitic social media posts.

Democrat pushes sick claim that Charlie Kirk wanted to 'roll back the rights' of black people and women



A congresswoman reversed course to condemn Charlie Kirk just hours after voting to honor him.

Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-N.J.) was one of 95 Democrats who voted in favor of honoring Kirk's "life and legacy" on Friday in a House resolution. The vote came just over a week after Kirk was assassinated, allegedly by a young male who was dating a transgender person.

'... Kirk’s racist, anti-American views.'

In total, the resolution received support from both Democrats and Republicans with a 310-58 vote. While 58 Democrats voted against and another 22 did not vote at all, Sherrill's about-face afterward was all the more confusing considering that she voted in support of the resolution.

In statement posted to her X account, Sherril wrote that while she supports free speech, she still thinks Kirk has "vile" views.

"I take my oath to the Constitution seriously. I believe in free speech. And that the First Amendment wouldn’t be necessary if it were only meant to cover language we agreed with," Sherrill stated. "It is meant to protect people like Charlie Kirk who present vile dissenting views. But it is also meant to protect teachers, doctors, and TV comedians who may express views the president doesn't like."

Then the New Jersey Democrat claimed that Kirk supported restricting the rights of women and black people.

"Charlie Kirk was advocating for a Christian nationalist government and to roll back the rights of women and Black people — this flies in the face of every value I hold dear and that I fight for," Sherril continued. "But the Constitution protects free speech, even for those I vehemently oppose."

Sherrill then stated that President Trump "defines hypocrisy at every turn" and is "instigating a witch hunt worthy of Joseph McCarthy to shut down the free speech rights of anyone who disagrees with Kirk’s racist, anti-American views."

The 53-year-old noted in her final paragraph that she considers Kirk's murder to be "horrific" and said it is "up to all of us to stand against political violence."

"In these times, I will continue to condemn political violence, racism, attacks on women, and the hypocrisy coming from Trump and his acolytes," she concluded.

Sherrill is running for governor of New Jersey in November as the Democratic Party candidate. She will run against Republican Jack Ciattarelli.

Ciattarelli responded to Sherrill's comments, writing on X, "Mikie Sherrill's hypocrisy knows no bounds."

He also described her comments about Kirk as "inexcusable and disqualifying."

Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah) responded to Sherrill's remarks directly in her comments section with, "You can't just say crap like that — especially when it's not true."

Vindicated: Nurse cleared of wrongdoing after exposing doctor who allegedly cheered Charlie Kirk assassination — and resigned



A New Jersey nurse has been cleared of any wrongdoing after reportedly being previously suspended for an incident involving a doctor allegedly celebrating the Charlie Kirk assassination.

Lexi Kuenzle, a 33-year-old nurse at Englewood Hospital, claimed she was near the nurses' station when news broke that Kirk was shot in the neck at a college event in Utah.

'It's mind-blowing to me. I was so angry and upset.'

According to the New York Post, a shocked Kuenzle exclaimed, "Oh my God! That’s terrible! I love him!"

However, surgeon Dr. Matthew Jung allegedly cheered on the fatal shooting of Kirk in front of multiple nurses and a patient.

"I hate Charlie Kirk. He had it coming. He deserved it," Jung reportedly proclaimed.

On Monday, Kuenzle appeared on "Fox & Friends" with her attorney, John-Paul Deol of the Dhillon Law Group.

"He was standing there, celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk, saying how ‘he deserved it,’ he hated Charlie Kirk, and ‘he had it coming to him,'" Kuenzle said.

Kuenzle told the New York Post, "It's mind-blowing to me. I was so angry and upset."

After Jung realized he had offended his co-workers, he reportedly offered to buy lunch for the department.

Kuenzle wrote on Instagram, "You are sick and I'm not [gonna] sit back and hear it."

She also lambasted the surgeon as a "disgrace."

Kuenzle reported Jung's alleged concerning remarks to the hospital's management. She claimed that she was suspended for blowing the whistle on the doctor. However, Kuenzle was later vindicated after an investigation by the hospital. Meanwhile, Jung reportedly resigned.

Englewood Health told Blaze News, "Consistent with protocol and best practices, Englewood Health diligently investigated the Sept. 10 incident that occurred between a doctor and a nurse in a patient care area."

Englewood Health noted that Jung resigned and that Kuenzle is "expected to work her scheduled shifts."

"The nurse was never fired; was never told she would be fired by Englewood Hospital; and will not miss any pay as part of our review of this matter," the spokesperson said.

"Englewood Health is committed to providing a safe and respectful environment for all," the statement concluded.

Jung is no longer listed on the Englewood Health website. A LinkedIn profile with the surgeon's name has been deleted.

The Post reported that Kuenzle filed a lawsuit in Bergen County Superior Court against the hospital, Jung, and others. The lawsuit argued that Kuenzle was wrongfully suspended.

"[Kuenzle] had the audacity to question how Dr. Jung can comply with the Hippocratic Oath’s and the American Medical Association’s Code of Medical Ethics while celebrating the murder of a non-violent Christian speaker who was on a college campus," the lawsuit states.

Kuenzle did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

As Blaze News reported on Monday, Vice President JD Vance urged conservatives to call out those who celebrate Kirk's assassination.

"When you see someone celebrating Charlie's murder, call them out. Hell, call their employer," Vance said on the "Charlie Kirk Show." "We don't believe in political violence, but we do believe in civility. And there is no civility in the celebration of political assassination."
