Political opportunist Paige Cognetti, America\u2019s most notorious missing mayor, is at it again. Cognetti was spotted at the airport getting off a flight from Chicago today.<\/p>\n

Why is she abandoning her city in the midst of a crime\u00a0crisis<\/a>\u00a0she\u2019s\u00a0responsible<\/a>\u00a0for (again)? Was she in Chicago fundraising with liberal elites? Voters deserve to know.<\/p>\n

Paige Cognetti and Karen Bass.\u00a0 Two mayors who\u00a0abandon<\/a>\u00a0their city at the first sign of trouble.<\/p>\n

REMINDER: this isn\u2019t the first time Cognetti has abandoned Scranton in crisis. This winter, Cognetti\u00a0fled<\/a>\u00a0Scranton during a historic snowstorm to schmooze with DC elitists.<\/p>\n

\u201cPolitical opportunist Paige Cognetti has proven time and time again that she\u2019ll abandon Scranton at the drop of a hat, as long as it benefits her personally. Pennsylvanians deserve better than Cognetti\u2019s absenteeism.\u201d\u00a0\u2013 NRCC Spokesman Reilly Richardson<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"May 14, 2026 Political opportunist Paige Cognetti, America\u2019s most notorious missing mayor, is at it again.
