Report: GOP ‘Faithless Elector’ Who Claimed to be 9/11 First Responder Wasn’t Really One


by |  December 16th, 2016

Chris Suprun‘s public profile always revolved around 9/11, so he was a bit of a name even before he became a controversial presidential elector. The firefighter, who says he was a first responder that day, runs a charity commemorating the terrorist attack. His work even got him to throw a ceremonial first pitch for the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2015.
...
We’ve reached out to the fire department and him for comment, and we asked Suprun about the other apparent irregularities in his resume: for example, that he claims to work Air Methods air ambulance service, a Arizona company, but WFAA said a spokeswoman claimed he doesn’t work there. Also, that he also claims on his LinkedIn page that he works on Freedom EMS in Dallas—and the outlet checked with Texas state records, and discovered that went out of business in 2008.
Suprun’s profile got raised a bit when he wrote a December 5 New York Times op-ed saying he wouldn’t vote for President-elect Donald Trump despite being a Republican elector in Texas. He mentioned his 9/11 story in the article, too.
