Our mailboxes are flooded with MAGA Republican mailers full of lies. It reeks of desperation. Why can\u2019t MAGA candidates run on their achievements, not lies and personal attacks?<\/p>

The Truth:<\/h3>

  • The Reality:<\/b> Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Candidate Sean McCarthy has never held an office with the authority to raise taxes. McCarthy is a 33 year veteran of Nassau County Police and current Commissioner of Port Washington Police.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/li><\/ul>

    The Lie:<\/h3>
    • DeSena\u2019s mailer attempts to falsely conflate tax hikes proposed by NYC Mayor Mamdani and NYS Gov. Hochul with a $32 million bond issued by the Town of North Hempstead to build a new Port Washington police station. <\/span><\/li>
    • The Facts:<\/b> The bond request was unanimously approved by the North Hempstead Town Council – including DeSena, who is responsible for sending the false postcards! <\/span><\/li><\/ul>

      Why this Matters:<\/h3>
      • Truth Matters:<\/b> Jennifer DeSena purposefully sent a factually false postcard to thousands of residents.\u00a0 Not only is she attempting to conflate her opponent for Town Supervisor, Sean McCarthy, with unrelated city politicians and state funding measures, she\u2019s trying to label McCarthy as a \u2018Tax Hiker\u201d even though he had zero authority to raise taxes. And to add to her deceit, the project that she says caused the tax hike is one that she approved and then called a \u201cmajor investment in our community\u2019s future\u201d when she attended the groundbreaking.

        Jennifer DeSena accuses her opponent, Sean McCarthy, of raising taxes. However, public records show that DeSena herself voted for the bond initiative she blames for the tax increase, while McCarthy has never held a public office with the authority to vote on or raise taxes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7412,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"format":"standard"},"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_review":[],"enable_review":"","type":"","name":"","summary":"","brand":"","sku":"","good":[],"bad":[],"score_override":"","override_value":"","rating":[],"price":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"jnews_post_split":[],"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[177,107,127],"tags":[180,112,109],"class_list":["post-7406","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-correct-the-record","category-desena","category-exclude","tag-correcttherecord","tag-desena","tag-thatssomessedup"],"a3_pvc":{"activated":true,"total_views":0,"today_views":0},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"views":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Republican-BS-McCarthy-Tax-Hkes-2.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7406","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7406"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7406\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7441,"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7406\/revisions\/7441"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7406"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7406"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/deceivednation.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7406"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
