✅Jeff Buongiorno, who is challenging the incumbent Supervisor of Elections in his County. He’ll share how
last-minute rule changes before the primaries are obscuring vital information, including a rule that now sends blank ballots to the canvassing board for adjudication, impacting transparency.
✅With the second assassination attempt on the president Trump, it’s clear they are determined to prevent his re-election. Combine this with our porous election systems, and the threat of manipulation is severe. But there’s something we can do: increase voter turnout. The more people who vote, the harder it becomes for cheaters to alter results.There are 40 million Christians in the U.S. who aren’t voting. On Tuesday's call, we’ll discuss strategies to engage these non-voters and ensure their voices are heard. Join us on tomorrow’s call to learn more.

✅ Denver Cook
It's a recurring theme. Leadership at various REC (Republican Executive Committees) using bully tactics to silence the voice of dissent in their meetings.
And worse - REC's infested with incessant drama between dysfunctional personalities. Resulting in their members being misdirected on minutia instead of the important work to be done.
It's like a group fighting each other about who spilt some milk in the kitchen and arguing about who to clean up the spilt milk while the entire house is burning down in flames.
If you can relate, please attend this Tuesday's call where Denver Cook (Who is himself a REC chairman) has successfully overcome the bullies in his REC and has refocused his group on the important work.

✅America First Vs Establishment for Florida will be decided in a few weeks August 20, 2024 is a crucial date. It's when either the establishment, backed by more funding and political pressure, will secure their control in Florida, or America First Candidates will successfully take office in key positions. It's the date of the primaries.
In the past, we've played an unsuccessful game of catch-up. The opposition installed their key people in important offices, and by the time we realized it, it was too late. For example, in 1996, Barack Obama won his state senate position, triggering the rise of the current administration. In 2021, Alvin Bragg won his first elected position, leading to what we now see as judicial manipulation against a Presidential Candidate. Now
, we have an opportunity to get ahead of this type of debacle. The plan is to install an establishment Speaker of the House in 2028, which would move Florida into an anti-America First position indefinitely.Join this Tuesday's call to learn how to stop this.
✅Karen Schoen
A Color Revolution is a communist/Marxist tool used by a regime overthrow the existing government and replace/transform it with a Marxist government of their choosing.A color revolution needs 2 things, an election and unrest. American's complacency has given both. We must recognize that it is happening now, understand the world around us, learn from their experience, bring it home and educate others. I will end with items we can do. Based on past experiences, if Biden wins 100% we will lose America. If Trump wins we have a 50-50% chance of recovery.

Private land ownership is also a principal instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to social injustice; if unchecked, it may become a major obstacle in the planning and implementation of development schemes. Social justice, urban renewal and development, the provision of decent dwellings and healthy conditions for the people can only be achieved if land is used in the interests of society as a whole. Build Back Better: Get a grant, Change the zoning. Lose your private property!

New Survey and strategy to fortify elections through legislators and supervisors of elections
Press Conference Announcement
New Threat HB 757
New Threat from HB 1051:
HB 1051 Housing for Agricultural Workers:
Prohibits governmental entity from inhibiting construction of housing for legally verified agricultural workers on certain agricultural land; provides requirements for construction or installation of specified housing; authorizes adoption of local land use regulations that are less restrictive than certain regulations; provides requirements for property owners & record maintenance; provides for suspension & removal of use of certain housing units; authorizes continued use of certain housing sites constructed if certain conditions are met. Effective Date: July 1, 2024
HB1051 and SB 1082 eliminates local authority to determine where low-cost housing should be that addresses agricultural workers. This is part of the Live Local Act passed last year 102 that eliminated local authority to address low cost housing in their community. Most local commissioners, mayors and staff have no idea that live local is just another mechanism to destroy private property and put it back in the hands of the government and their cronies. Agenda 21/2030 Great Reset/15Minute Cities calls for the elimination of private property and local elected officials. It is imperative that we address these bills immediately with our local legislators as well as Governor DeSantis who is now beholding to his developer donors. An example of this is in Martin county where development is being put on what once was considered conservation land. Now the county wants to tax the people 3%, so that they can purchase new conservation land. See the way this works?It is imperative that we contact our local officials and tell them not to take grants for anything that addresses housing development and conservation or we will wind up with an overcrowded community that will be prone to disease and crime just like the rest of the state.
Press Conference:
When: February 29th. Live stream starts at 4:30pm Press conference begins at 5:10pm Where: Foundation Church 13000 Tamiami Trail – outside back door entrance North Port, Florida
Purpose: Defeat HB757
Please inform your clubs.
The following information is provided by volunteers. THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL INFORMATION. THIS IS NOT GOVERNMENT INFORMATION. Please refer to the Florida Senate and Florida House Site for official information. https://www.flsenate.gov/ https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/
WHY WE MUST DEFEAT HB757: As written, the bill lowers the standard for defamation and opens up conservative speech to costly litigation. Our goal is to get as many election integrity and free speech patriots to the press conference as possible and make our voice heard in Tallahassee. There’s strength in numbers after all. Make signs and banners in opposition to HB757 and in opposition to Seminole and Orange County Senator Jason Brodeur who is pushing this bill. His Tallahassee phone number is 850-487-5010. His Lake Mary office is 407-333-1802.
Political advisor and news analyst Stephen Miller has come out strongly against this legislation. He posted on X that…” It would make it easier to launch and win defamation lawsuits.” Miller states… “If Florida passes the proposed law to lower the standard for defamation, expect leftist plaintiff’s lawyers to spend the next generation bankrupting every prominent conservative based in Florida. This law will mean conservative influencers, podcasters and alternative media companies based in Florida are going to get WRECKED solely because they are conservative.” Is this by design? Is this a nefarious plot and part of the left’s agenda to influence elections, silence dissent and silence election fraud investigations? It seems Democrats don’t think, they scheme and devise ways to obtain their goals. Besides HB757, last year George Soros purchased 50 Spanish speaking radio stations. Now he is currently in negotiations to purchase Odessey Broadcast Network, the second largest broadcast network in the nation. They own some of the biggest conservative news talk radio stations in the country and include newscasters like Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and Dana Loesch. In addition, Cumulus Network, the 3rd largest broadcast network, is facing a takeover by an investor based in Singapore. As part of the negotiations, they received permission from the FCC to become a 100% foreign owned United States broadcast network.
Contact your legislators and ask them to oppose HB757. Write them a handwritten letter, send an email, and call their office. Tell your representative that you will support them if they vote against this bill and that you will tell your friends to support them too. Tell them that you will spread the word if they vote in favor of HB757. The person pushing this bill is Senator Jason Brodeur. Contact Senator Brodeur and tell him of your opposition to HB757. Tell him you will inform your friends that he is silencing free speech. Contact Governor DeSantis and ask him to announce that he will veto HB757 before it is passed.

Can a chair of a committee propose legislation? (Microsoft Bing)
Yes, the chair of a committee in Florida can propose legislation. However, the process of proposing legislation is complex and involves several steps.
The chair of a committee can introduce a bill in the committee they lead, but it must be approved by the majority of the committee members before it can be sent to the full House or Senate for consideration123.

If your official says: "I cannot honor your request for Election Integrity Reform even though I am your legislator - I need to check with the Secretary of State" - Refer to this email from the Secretary of State stating that it is your legislators duty to initiate reform and that your legislator is NOT subservient to the Secretary of State
"Dear sir,
Thank you for your email. As you note, the ideas you propose would require legislative changes. Outreach to your legislators is a great first step.
