A career built on puffery, fudges and straight up lies will eventually land you in the Potomac River Septic System, or so Maryland Governor Wes Moore is learning. If you have not yet read our Nina’s write up on the raw sewage spill in the Potomac River, read it here. Moore is the latest 2028 Dem Presidential Hopeful to display his naivete for the public like the bartender, AOC. Moore will land in the Dem hopeful septic tank, too.

Six days ago, before the Potomac Sewage Spill got national attention, Wes Moore laid out his State of the State priorities:

Maryland Governor Wes Moore delivered his fourth State of the State Address on Tuesday, drawing a sharp contrast between his administration’s agenda and what he called a “damaging federal direction” out of Washington.

Moore told lawmakers the mission for 2026 was simple: “protect, deliver, and lead.”

Moore opened by praising Maryland’s current legislative leadership, including House Speaker Joseline Peña-Melnyk, the first Afro-Latina to hold the position. He framed the moment as bigger than symbolism and told the chamber, “Making history isn’t the assignment. Making life better for Marylanders is.”

Then, the Potomac Interceptor Line became a national story. Like many poseurs, Moore can talk a good game but he is full of puffery and shite. Those not blinded by TDS know:

You know who gets mad over the truth? Liars.

Wes Moore Only Makes Things WORSE by Lashing Out at the Free Beacon For Exposing His ACTUAL History https://t.co/OQOIm4V3hz pic.twitter.com/7oOBOu0K8W

You can read the full Free Beacon article here, but here are the first two paragraphs:

Democrat Wes Moore’s presidential ambitions imploded over the past 10 weeks, but you’d have to be a pretty close student of the Maryland governor to know it, since most of the mainstream press is in cahoots with the aspiring 2028 Democratic presidential cohort.

Our Andrew Kerr has published two blockbuster investigative reports about Moore that undercut key elements of his life story—first, his boasts about being some kind of a “foremost expert” on radical Islam, based on an Oxford University graduate thesis that he can’t produce and that the school doesn’t have on file in its library, and second, his oft-repeated tale that his great-grandfather was chased out of the country by the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s. These claims are part of Moore’s long and well-documented history of making self-aggrandizing and provably false assertions about his biography. In that sense, the Potomac River overflowing with crap, apparently the largest wastewater spill in American history, is an apt metaphor for the governor himself.

Yes, the shite spill is an apt metaphor for Wes Moore. The Free Beacon also addressed his Ku Klux Klan lie. First, Moore and the LIE:

The Free Beacon’s response:

As for Moore’s tale about his great-grandfather, the Rev. Josiah Johnson Thomas, which is contradicted by Episcopal Church records and contemporaneous news reports, the governor doubled down without providing a shred of evidence and instead flung insinuations of racism at anybody prepared to challenge him.

“I’m the grandson of someone who was born in South Carolina, and when he was just a child, the Ku Klux Klan ran their family, ran my family out,” Moore said. “So if some blog has a question about the Klan’s history, maybe they should ask the Ku Klux Klan.”

Leading up to his sit-down with O’Donnell, Moore’s communications team offered a series of responses about the imaginary Ku Klux Klan attack, leaning heavily on the vagaries and inconsistencies of “oral history” and the “broader reality” of racism in the 1920s South.

The governor’s communications director, David Turner, is perhaps best known for helping former Democratic Virginia governor Ralph Northam navigate the fallout after a photograph surfaced of him in blackface standing next to a man clad in a Ku Klux Klan robe. (Yes, really, we’re the racists.) Turner went ballistic on Baltimore’s local ABC News affiliate for asking the governor’s office for a response on Moore’s Klan story, dismissing questions as “absurd, ridiculous, and from a partisan, right-wing outlet known for shoddy work.”

“As most people with a basic understanding of American history know,” Turner added, “Black Americans often carried an oral tradition of their history due to low literacy rates at the time.”

Just one thing: For our “shoddy” work, we went to the College of Charleston and pored over hard copies of church archival records. We also reviewed century-old articles from the Gleaner, Jamaica’s storied newspaper.

Notice another thing, Moore said that his family said they wouldn’t come back to the United States and that’s why his Mother is in Jamaica. What? He is the Governor of Maryland and his Mother doesn’t feel safe with her son?

Wes Moore is trying to have it all ways. Victim and Victor. Afraid of the Klan and proud member of the 82nd Airborne Division. Member of the non-existent Maryland College Football Hall of Fame.

Try, try again Democrat Party. You’ve raised a Party of victims. Wes Moore is your latest failure. Your Septic Shite Failure.
