You'll be voting for Harris for sure after watching this...

Hope you get some traction on that, Bolt. I'm genuinely invested in what you're able to find out.

Annnnd we're back to conspiracies. :sigh:

Ohio's own senator didn't provide proof of a single claim he received.
The republican governor has said himself there is no merit to the claim.
Springfield's own republican mayor has said there is no merit to the claim.

Why on earth would pro-Trump politicians cover it up and publicly deny the claims outright?
Let's take the politics out of it and exercise a little logic for a moment.

I was referring to the post after yours. My fault for not quoting the post I was referencing. I edited my last post to wish you luck. I've directly contacted congressmen/women in the past. It's an immense challenge...very time consuming. I've had better luck via email (takes longer) and even better luck via snail mail (even longer).

I just deleted my last one because it dawned on me that you may not even be talking about one of my posts.

I'll include this part of my last post here.

I just called all three of the numbers for Vance and all three went to voicemail/answering machine, stating all lines were busy assisting other callers. I can not imagine being someone who answers phone calls in those offices in recent days. LMMFAO

Another factor worth consideration:
Many "republicans" are RINOs and are as corrupt as any. Just because someone "is a republican" doesn't mean they're good, doesn't mean they won't/can't be paid to go a certain way (corruption).

U.S. government corruption is very real, and definitely not a conspiracy theory.

The flip side of that same coin also is worth mentioning: Not every republican that's against MAGA/DJT is bad. I personally see them as brave republicans willing to stand up to DJT's authoritarian style of governing (loyalty to him above all else).

And I do agree that government corruption is very real but I don't believe it's around every corner working only against republicans. And it's worth noting, some use it as an excuse for nearly everything that doesn't work in conservative favor. It's lazy. I detest laziness.

There are definitely two sides to the coin. We'll just have to go on with our lives, pursuing our money, and watching to see which side the coin lands on.

One side is correct. Which one? We'll find out eventually.

Awesome! Me too...which is why I have no problem with Haitians living in Springfield, OH; because they're there legally since Haiti is one of 16 countries eligible for temporary protection status through Feb. 3, 2026 by the Secretary of Homeland Security.

Let's see; Liz Cheney and Dick Cheney, both supposedly VERY conservative from a very red state (Wyoming), openly vow to vote for a democrat because Trump made them mad, or something? Talk about selling your principles. "I will vote for Harris over Trump! Pro-abortion, pro-illegal immigration, for raising taxes, for more federal give-away programs, against fossil fuels, against 1st and 2nd Amendments, and on and on; is okay by me & Liz now, because I am mad cause trump called me and my family names, and that my guy is not going to win the republican nomination! Whaaaa, whaaaa!!! This Cheney family became mega wealthy via Halliburton. That's real brave! Their option to maintain their principles? Don't vote!

As for Trump being an authoritarian.... why would he not? If some scumbag in your administration is leaking information that needs to stay inside the walls, then you have a traitor in your midst. That happened throughout his term. He's not asking them to share their wives with him, he's asking that you be loyal to the cause! Every business owner I know asks that of their employees!

Now the truly authoritarians are democrats who try to destroy anyone that doesn't tow their BS. If your black and you don't vote democrat, you ain't black! If your a women and you don't support abortion you aren't a real woman! If you are big labor and you don't vote democrat you are turning your back on working Americans. Deplorables! Stupid! Racists! Zenophobes, Misogynists, White Supremacists, and on and on.

And let's not forget state run media! Pathetic and phony shills for the democrats no matter what they say, what crappy things they do, what completely asinine ideas they have, etc.

So I can stay with a candidate that says mean things but knows how to run this country, or I can switch over to a vapid empty headed puppet of a shadow government? Hmmm!

Yeah! I'll stick with Trump and true liberty!

I ascribe to the belief that the truth or some version of it usually lies in the middle somewhere.

Agree, and i would add for me and many like me. Trump is not our choice because we want to shut down the socialist left. Trump is our choice because we are trying to reform the Republican party. The uniparty is a much bigger threat to our individual rights than the retards on the left.
Trumps beliefs are nothing new, hell our founding fathers fought a revolution based on the same beliefs of individual right and self governance.Trump has somewhat filled a huge void left by the death of the great Rush Limbaugh.

Currently we are living through what some call a mass psychosis, truly a weird time to be alive.
We currently have half the country believing the only way forward is to progress to the past. Socialism where the individual is the greatest threat to the state. Where there is no God only the government. Yep weird days for sure.
