HAVE THE CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST JOHN DEATON BEEN RESOLVED?
COMMONWEALTH BEACON POSTED AN ARTICLE ANNOUNCING THAT
CARPETBAGGING CRYPTO SCAMMER LIAR JOHN DEATON ANNOUNCED
HIS RUN FOR ELECTION...AGAIN!
BELOW ARE JUST SOME OF THE ITEMS POSTED DURING HIS FAILED
RUN AGAINST SENATOR ELIZABETH WARREN! THERE'S MORE!
JOHN DEATON, REGISTERED AS AN INDEPENDENT, VOTED 3 TIMES IN 20 YEARS!
JOHN DEATON SEEMS TO BE JUST A LOUD MOUTHED TROUBLE MAKER,
INCAPABLE OF WORKING WITH OTHERS TO SOLVE PROBLEMS, NEVER HELD PUBLIC OFFICE
RI lawyer John Deaton moves to Mass. to challenge Sen. Warren
excerpt:
State records show Deaton was on the Rhode Island voter rolls as an independent before his registration was cancelled Feb. 14 due to his change of residency. He is listed as having voted only three times since registering in Rhode Island two decades ago, casting ballots in the 2020, 2008 and 2004 general elections.
THERE IS A FOLLOWUP ARTICLE REGARDING THIS ISSUE:
In 2017, the retailer Claire’s was forced to pull some children’s makeup off its shelves after Target 12 reported that tests ordered by Deaton’s law firm discovered asbestos in the products. He later raised concerns about the FDA’s lack of authority over cosmetics.
Separately, Deaton had a yearslong fight with Barrington officials over his 2017 arrest during an altercation with his girlfriend’s ex-husband. He has since sued the town in federal court, alleging police acted unlawfully. That suit remains in active in both state court and federal appeals court, according to Barrington Town Manager Philip Hervey.
CRYPTO SCAMMER DEATON blabbered about ECONOMICS for which he has NO EXPERTISE.
Let's remember that MAGA MORON have opposed FUNDING CHILD TAX CREDITS that reduced POVERTY!
(LOOK IT UP!)
MAGA MORONS IN THE HOUSE WANT TO SLASH IRS FUNDINGS TO STOP AUDITS OF THE WEALTHY....but it's even more complicated than this.
IRS AGENTS WERE INCREASED TO AUDIT WEALTHY TAX CHEATS!
IRS ramps up new initiatives using Inflation Reduction Act funding to ensure complex partnerships, large corporations pay taxes owed, continues to close millionaire tax debt cases https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-ramps-up-new-initiatives-using-inflation-reduction-act-funding-to-ensure-complex-partnerships-large-corporations-pay-taxes-owed-continues-to-close-millionaire-tax-debt-cases
COMMENT:
Deaton's whole campaign is to say we need a change from Warren, but change for the sake of change is something politically ignorant people cry for. Warren is an upstanding person with a civil service background. She deserves our vote. Falsely claiming she doesn't help the middle class isn't going to get Deaton more votes. Warren has sponsored and co-sponsored thousands of pieces of legislation that I bet anyone who votes for this guy hasn't even read. She's proven to be a competent leader. She is also much more intelligent and substantive than Deaton.
Thank you!
CARPETBAGGER John Deaton stood before the CAPE COD BRIDGES that gridlock traffic in the entire region & blamed SENATOR WARREN which is a LIE!
SENATOR WARREN is responsible for the creation of the CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION BUREAU that MAGA MORONS have challenged repeatedly to destroy. It's the ONLY agency that protects CONSUMERS - YOU!
SENATOR WARREN has done a great deal to protect Americans, the BANKING SYSTEM & much else that the SUPERFICIAL CLOWN wouldn't begin to comprehend.
WARREN BUFFETT called CRYPTO: 'RAT POISON SQUARED.'
John Deaton is a CRYPTO SCAMMER!
A 2nd FDIC INSURED BANK has failed due to CRYPTO - that means TAX PAYPAYERS will bail out this SCAM!
CARPETBAGGER JOHN DEATON & STEWARD
STEWARD IS IN BANKRUPTCY COURT....apparently BLOVIATOR JOHN DEATON is unfamiliar with how BANKRUPTCY works.
The Commonwealth attempted to thwart the HOSPITAL CLOSURES & were denied....
Once again, the CARPETBAGGER is a LIAR!
HOMELESSNESS PRE-DATED ASYLUM SEEKERS!
BE IMPRESSED THAT JOHN DEATON ACTUALLY ATTENDED A MEETING!
BUT HE LACKS THE FACTS!
JOHN DEATON WROTE:
Assuming those were divided equally, the cost of keeping Nashoba Valley and Carney open for an additional year would cost $25 million.
JOHN DEATON, SHOOT FROM THE LIP BLABBER DOESN'T HAVE FACTS!
CHUCKLES went to a single meeting...that makes him informed?
THE CARPETBAGGER LIVES IN BOLTON?
Were those "lease contracts" for the LAND? Chuckles ignores that STEWARD is in bankruptcy that limits the states' options.
Before declaring bankruptcy, Steward was committed to lease contracts for its eight hospitals that cost a total of $100 million annually. Assuming those were divided equally, the cost of keeping Nashoba Valley and Carney open for an additional year would cost $25 million.
Jon, You were too lazy to look up that CRYPTO SCAMMER JOHN DEATON voted 3 times in 20 years.
JOHN DEATON:

A new WBUR report published today sheds troubling new light on Congressman Seth Moulton's financial interests and raises serious questions about why he has spent months delaying the release of information Massachusetts voters deserve to see before they cast their ballots.
The report details how Moulton accumulated private stakes worth between $1 million - $5 million in companies tied to the defense sector while serving on the House Armed Services Committee – the very committee responsible for overseeing the industry and approving policies and spending that directly affect it. These were not ordinary investments available to the public. They were exclusive private deals that generated extraordinary returns while Moulton sat in a position of public trust. |
Just as striking is Moulton's sudden reversal.
Congressman Moulton began investing in these companies in 2021 and continued doing so for years while serving on the committee responsible for overseeing the industry in which they operate. During that time, he showed little interest in addressing the obvious questions these investments raised. It wasn't until he began gearing up for a Senate campaign that he publicly commented on them, and even then his response was to defend the practice. In a September 2025 statement, he declared that he “cannot recuse myself from my constitutional duty to vote on matters coming before the House.”
Only now, after reporters began asking questions and voters began paying attention, has Moulton reversed course. His campaign says he will place the assets in a blind trust and recuse himself from votes affecting those companies. After years of deflecting and then defending these investments, it's fair to ask why now?
The investments didn't change. The committee didn't change. The only thing that changed is that Seth Moulton is now running for Senate. |
|
That is what makes this episode so troubling. A member of Congress charged with overseeing the defense industry participated in exclusive private investment opportunities tied to that same industry, defended those arrangements for years, and only moved to address the issue after it became a public controversy.
Yet voters still do not know the full extent of Moulton's financial interests. He has delayed filing both his financial disclosure report and tax returns, leaving Massachusetts voters without information they should have before they begin casting ballots.
Public trust is built on transparency and accountability. It requires leaders to confront potential conflicts of interests before they become public controversies, not scramble to address them after they've been uncovered. Better yet, it requires the judgment to avoid those conflicts altogether and the integrity to hold oneself to the highest standards the public deserves.
At every step, Congressman Moulton's response has followed the same pattern: deny there is a problem, delay transparency, and change course only when public pressure becomes impossible to ignore. That may be a political strategy, but it is not the standard Massachusetts voters should expect from someone seeking a seat in the United States Senate.
The people of Massachusetts deserve better.
FROM THE DOWNBALLOT: Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton (D), at left (credit: Seth Moulton Facebook) Democratic Rep. Seth Moulton kicked off a primary challenge to Sen. Ed Markey on Wednesday, explicitly painting the long-time incumbent as “too old” in comments to the Washington Post. Markey, 79, has served in Congress since winning a House seat in 1976, though it wasn’t until 2013 that he earned a promotion to the upper chamber in a special election to replace John Kerry, who resigned to become Barack Obama’s secretary of state. During his long career, Markey has established himself as an outspoken liberal and has focused heavily on combating climate change. While he’s seldom faced difficult reelection campaigns, he turned back another primary challenger five years ago when he defeated Rep. Joseph P. Kennedy by a 55-45 margin. Like Moulton, who is 46, the much younger Kennedy (at the time 39) presented himself as an agent of generational change. But despite his famous name, Kennedy struggled to match Markey’s liberal bona fides and his support from figures like New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and a host of the best-known progressive organizations. It’s a problem the centrist Moulton will face as well. Moulton, a Marine veteran, first won Massachusetts’ 6th Congressional District by knocking off a tarnished Democratic incumbent, John Tierney. His subsequent attempts to take on much bigger targets, however, have fallen well short. After Democrats regained the House in 2018, Moulton led an ill-fated plot to stop Nancy Pelosi from once again becoming speaker. After that gambit failed (Moulton even wound up voting for Pelosi to reclaim her old job), he then sought to run for president. After a desultory few months in which he didn’t qualify for any debates, he abandoned ship. In announcing his latest bid, Moulton leaned heavily into the age gap between the two candidates in his launch video. “We’re in a crisis, and with everything we learned last election, I just don’t believe Sen. Markey should be running for another six-year term at 80 years old,” he said. “Even more, I don’t think someone who’s been in Congress for half a century is the right person to meet this moment and win the future.” (Markey will turn 80 next year.) But Moulton’s more moderate record may not appeal to primary voters. In particular, he generated a firestorm of criticism from fellow Democrats shortly after last year’s presidential election when he expressed his opposition to allowing transgender kids to play in girls’ sports—and hostility toward his party for allegedly suppressing such views. “Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face,” he told the New York Times. “I have two little girls, I don’t want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I’m supposed to be afraid to say that.” Despite the hostile response, which included the resignation of a top aide, Moulton remained defiant, declaring, “The backlash proves my point.” He also dared his critics to challenge him at the ballot box, saying, “Good luck, I mean, run against me if you want.” Now, before a much larger electorate, those critics will get the chance to unite against him.
