Return to Home Page Sometimes, the representative you have needs to be replaced. Like a burned out light bulb now grown dim and flickering, you need to install a new one. To do that, you don't just point at the defective light bulb. You go find a new one, a better one. So here's my joke of the day: how many constituents does it take to replace a light bulb? Fifty-one percent. A lot of people are excited right now about censure. Censure is good for bringing attention to the fact that there isn't much light coming from that bulb any more. A lot of darkness there... so it's good for a headline or two. But defective bulbs don't replace themselves, and defective politicians don't either. You have to find the replacement. That's the real challenge. To replace a light bulb, you have to buy a new light bulb. The light bulb doesn't pay for itself; you have to pay for it. The store clerk would look at you funny if you walked up and set the new bulb on the counter but didn't produce your wallet. "You have to pay for that if you want it," the clerk might say. Likewise with your fancy replacement politician - you have to pay for that if you want to install someone new. Jasmine Crockett is in the news these days for all of the wrong reasons. Representing Texas, the woman must be replaced. If you don't know about Sholdon Daniels, here's your chance. He's the guy running against her. I gave $50 to his campaign. He's not in my district, and I don't care. That chick has got to go and she embarrasses the Great Lone Star State every time she opens her mouth. I've met Sholdon - he was at one of my seminars. Good guy, and he's getting traction. Next up: Al Green, the caveman rep down in Houston who protested President Trump during the SOTU. He's censured now. That's nice, but as Rep. Tim Burchett said: Only replacement matters, and to accomplish that, we have to pony up money for the replacement. "Oh, but it's not my district. Why should I do that?" Every Democrat replaced in the US House gives us a greater majority to achieve the MAGA agenda. If you help replace an idiot Democrat with a Trump ally, your donation is insurance money that we will all make America great again in the second half of his second term. One of my banks is Old Glory Bank. It's where Nicole and I have our 350 Plan money.  I regularly put $100 a month in for me to give to some great candidate later. You know I recommend $25 a month, but you give what you can. Censure is a step on the road, but it's not the destination. Good candidates are more likely to step forward if they know that an army of patriots have their back. Shrinking government is a good investment for the savings it will bring, so it's worth our money. Let's be ready to pay for the replacement of the dim bulbs in our House. More light, please.

Mark Beny (Mar 7, 2025 11:30 AM): Censure is meaningless. Stripping him of his committee memberships would be better. Thought I heard that they were considering it. Some 25 democrats voted for censure. Bea vallejo (Mar 7, 2025 12:33 PM): Great ideas… great job! Love you! Buffalo Gal (Mar 7, 2025 2:47 PM): Great article! I will reiterating this info tomorrow at a multi county meeting that had a bad light bulb! Janine Chapa (Mar 7, 2025 7:00 PM): It’s no wonder people can’t see the light! The bulbs going out! Can you hear marine what people will see when the light shines BRIGHT! Marilyn Snider (Mar 8, 2025 8:05 AM): I will try to send $25 to any known conservative running in the primary. Please keep us informed about these candidates. Aiken MaryAnne (Mar 9, 2025 12:04 PM): Great article. When I call regarding an issue. The response is usually, you're not in our district. My response is your person's vote affects me! Comment to your heart's content: | |||||||||||
