He\u2019s gunning for an open House seat in Wisconsin\u2019s 7th District, set to be vacated by Rep. Tom Tiffany as he preps a run for governor. <\/p>\n<div>\n<p>That\u2019s also Secretary Duffy\u2019s former seat, which he held from 2011 to 2019. One of the loudest objectors to Duffy\u2019s involvement in Alfonso\u2019s candidacy is Meg Ellefson, a conservative podcaster who once cheered the former reality star\u2019s rise. She is now \u201cutterly disgusted by this blatant manipulation of voters,\u201d she told Axios on Wednesday, and is backing a rival candidate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Duffy has shaped the contest at nearly every turn, Axios reported. In October, he steered $1 million left over from his old congressional account into a super PAC boosting Alfonso. His biggest coup came in January, when he convinced Trump to back the newcomer, who previously worked as a producer on former Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino\u2019s podcast. The president has hailed Alfonso as a \u201cMAGA warrior\u201d and a \u201cyoung STAR.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Money has followed. Alfonso has hauled in more than $50,000 from PACs tied to the transportation industry that the secretary oversees. Delta Air Lines, whose business falls firmly within Duffy\u2019s portfolio, threw his son-in-law a fundraiser in December.<\/p>\n<p>He also surfaces in the Duffy family reality show <i>The Great American Road Trip<\/i>. A trailer for the YouTube show features Duffy, his Fox News host wife Rachel Campos-Duffy, and several of their nine children being ushered into Trump\u2019s Oval Office.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=1138\">Trump\u2019s Former Bunkmate Reveals His Unfortunate Nickname<\/a><\/p>\n<p>As a Cabinet member, Duffy falls under the Hatch Act, which bars officials from using their government positions to influence elections but permits activity as a private citizen.<\/p>\n<p>Transportation Department spokesman Nathaniel Sizemore rejected criticism from Wisconsin Republicans on that basis, telling Axios that Duffy supports his son-in-law only in \u201ca personal capacity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alfonso\u2019s campaign has similarly waved off the backlash, saying he has \u201cearned support from conservative leaders\u201d and grassroots backers nationwide.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The Daily Beast has contacted the Department of Transportation and Alfonso\u2019s campaign for comment.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=1136\">Top DOJ Goon\u2019s Plot to Demand Trump Slush Fund Cash Is Leaked<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wisconsin Republicans are accusing Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy of abusing his Cabinet post to muscle his son-in-law into Congress.
