The Council on Foreign Relations held a webinar with State and local officials about the Avian Flu Outbreak and Preventing the Next Pandemic May 29th 2024.
300+ attendees from 47 states and territories listened as Jennifer Nuzzo & Rick Bright discussed the history of Avian flu and its propensity to create the next pandemic.
Bright self-reported that he has studied H5N1 (Avian flu) since the first human cases in 1997 and has studied the virus, working to understand it and develop vaccines, therapeutics, and diagnostics.
NOTE: Rick Bright was the director of BARDA, COVID pandemic response whistleblower and now Senior VP of Rockefeller Foundations Pandemic Prevention and response. (Info from Wikipedia)
"Darkest winter in modern history" was a quote from Rick Bright's written testimony as he prepared to testify before Congress in 2020.
Nuzzo discussed history of the virus but not her personal role in that research.
While both Nuzzo and Bright stated that the virus in humans is mild and ONLY consists of conjunctivitis (eye irritation) at this time, they are concerned about sustained human to human transmission because historically the virus had killed about half of the known 900 cases in Asian countries.
Currently, eye swabs are being used to declare infection and respiratory specimens are negative. Nuzzo reports that she believes there are many more cases happening across the U.S. and cautions officials "not to assume that it isn't spreading. " She also stated that "we are only finding cases where we are shinning a light."
Both Nuzzo and Bright were insistent that despite the fact that this virus has been noted in humans for 27 years, that there is likely widespread mammalian (cows not birds) infection, and evidence of mild or even asymptomatic cases in humans that we should be prepared for this to be a very severe infection.
The discussion made it clear that a pandemic was imminent and state governments should take action to start providing incentives for testing and PPE for farmers & farm employees.
The discussion also included ominous warnings from Bright and Nuzzo about how we are exceptionally prepared for a flu pandemic, but complacency could be disastrous in the face of deadly mutations as human-to-human transmission.
All interested parties should "create strong relationships with high-risk populations" (farmers/migrant workers) in order to ensure quick assessment, treatment, and use of vaccines.
The importance of data throughput to federal agencies was stressed as a primary importance to "understand how the virus was spreading" and to stop it before so many people were infected and dying.
Early vaccination was stressed as a necessary component to "get ahead of the virus" and widespread human pandemic
Rick Bright suggested use of stockpile doses of H5N1 vaccines on high risk populations, and a second dose from an mRNA vaccine. Both Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech have vaccines in clinical trials.
When asked how communities can prepare, Nuzzo stated that children would be at high risk and local governments should be discussing acceptable behaviors in regard to school shutdowns.
Overall, the message was clear that the state and local governments should be increasing testing, discuss vaccines and the willingness of citizens to cooperate and stop the pandemic.
Remember it started with Indiana Senator Vaneta Becker sponsoring Indiana Senate Bill 4 in 2023 and the Indiana Legislature approving the abdication of our health sovereignty.

Giant of Cuma” naples Italy discovery in 1938 of large bone fragments by Maiuri.
Excerpt from one of these articles:
“In 1938 the workers of the archaeologist Amedeo Maiuri, during the excavations on the top of the Cumana acropolis, discovered – on the western front of the so-called Temple of Jupiter – some huge bone fragments. The famous paleontologist Ralph von Koenigswald, already engaged in the search for the Gigantopithecus, warned of the discovery went to the place by joining the researchers and bringing to light the finds we have available.
Exceptional skeletal remains emerged from the ground and a fraction of stone slab with traces of rock painting that revealed an unknown symbolic form to which von Koenigswald, a careful reader of Joyce, gave the name of Chaosmos. And this very painted element, immediately associated with the size of the bones of the hand, led the scholar to consider the newly found creature the greatest artist in the world. These precious materials were ready for the preparation of an epochal exhibition which should have been held in the Neapolitan museum in 1939 and which was never created due to the war events.
They were preserved and forgotten for almost a century until the recent rediscovery which took place following the unexpected discovery – during an archival search of the Brigataes – of a folder containing the documentation of the excavation and the indications on their location in a remote section of the warehouses. ”
Some users of social networks have shared the images of an exhibition in the National Archaeological Museum of Naples (Italy) with several colossal skeletal remains that would have belonged to giants that lived on earth several thousand years ago, as the result of some findings from the Italian archaeologist Amedeo Maiuri in 1938, implying that they are real and that they are currently on display. In fact, the exhibition dates from 2015 and was the work of the Italian artistic group Brigataes, which manufactured and exhibited these gigantic pieces of plausible appearance, based on the discoveries made by Maiuri, who found larger-than-normal bones in the archaeological park of Cuma, close to Naples, but smaller in size than those exhibited, the museum told Reuters.
“Find of 1938, discovered by the archaeologist Amedeo Maiuri near the Temple of Jupiter on the Acropolis of Com (Cuma), where the Greeks placed the sacred area of the city. The impressive bones are identified as: skull, hand and femur belonging to the Nephilim (Nephilim). These bones are in a sala della Meridiana in the Archaeological Museum of Naples, Italy ”, says the first publication, dated April 18, which has been shared nearly 500 times. “The 24-meter giant.

Trump has received lots of criticism for his handling of Covid and unwillingness to fire Fauci, but what exactly could he have done?
At the time, the public and MSM literally worshipped Fauci like a god.
If Trump fired the senior most US Health Official, during a pandemic, the Dems/MSM would have lost their minds, and it would have severely negatively impacted Trump’s support, just months out from the 2020 election.
Many of Trump’s critics have forgotten just how tense it was back in the summer of 2020. If Trump fired Fauci during that time, the Left would have endless headlines/narratives to blame Trump for the million+ “deaths” of US citizens, and he would have lost reelection for sure.
The Deep State had Trump cornered. He was unable to remove anyone like Fauci or Collins during this period due to optics. It was truly a genius plan on their part.
And then we look at masks, lockdowns, and vaccines. Trump was notoriously anti-mask and received loads of hate from the media for it, he was anti-lockdown and left it up to the States, and he was vehemently anti-vaccine mandate. Trump was all about individual choice the entire time, and never wanted to force anything on anyone.
As for vaccine production, what was Trump supposed to do? Trump is a savvy business man and diplomat, but he is not a doctor or scientist. How was Trump, or anyone in his administration, supposed to know better than the highest ranking officials in the US and global health organizations? How are they supposed to know if the vaccines are good or not?
They had no choice but to trust their health officials. Is it Trump’s fault that the WHO, CDC, NIH, USAID, etc., are all corrupt?
The majority of the world didn’t even know these entities were corrupt until AFTER Covid ended and their lies became apparent. Was Trump supposed to arrest all the corrupt actors of these health organizations, while the public are locked down and severely brainwashed to worship these health organizations? It would have been absolute chaos.
In retrospect, Trump fared very well given the predicament he was in. He was trying to navigate the many layers of this global psyop campaign, in additional to nationwide Soros-funded BLM riots, all while trying to win reelection, immediately after he just got done fending off the 3 year “Russian collusion” psyop…
The blanket criticisms of Trump’s handling of Covid are short-sighted and lack nuance.

Small Business Administration is attempting to become involved in voter registration. WARNING ⚠️
Indiana Secretary of State Diego Morales testified before a congressional committee Tuesday, saying the administration of elections in the Hoosier State is the responsibility of his office and he would not welcome federal involvement.
“I believe we, the states, know better how to run our elections than the federal government,” Morales told the members of the House Committee on Small Business.
The Republican-led committee called the hearing to examine a memorandum of understanding between the Small Business Administration and the Michigan Department of State. In March, the SBA announced the agreement, saying it would promote civic engagement and voter registration in the Wolverine State.
However, the Republican committee members assailed the MOU during the hearing. They said the SBA was neglecting its duty to help small businesses and accused the Biden administration of electioneering. Three of the witnesses – Morales; Elaine Parker, president of the Job Creators Network Foundation; and Stewart Whitson, senior director of federal affairs for the Foundation for Government Accountability – supported the GOP committee members’ view.
The fourth witness – Lisa Danetz, adviser at the Brennan Center for Justice at the New York University School of Law – defended the memorandum. She said the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 requires states to designate state offices and agencies to serve as voter registration agencies. Also, the NVRA permits the states to designate federal offices for voter registration.
In Michigan, the state designated the Small Business Administration as a voter registration agency, Danetz said. This enables the SBA offices in the state to provide Michiganders, who are using the agency’s services, with the opportunity to register to vote.
“Public agency voter registration is a broadly accepted, widely used, nonpartisan model that makes voter registration opportunities accessible to the American public,” Danetz told the committee in her opening testimony. “Through its agreement to designation, SBA is adopting that model for the benefit of its constituency.”
Republicans were suspicious of the SBA’s intent. Pointing out Michigan is a battleground state expected to be key in determining the outcome of the 2024 presidential election, several GOP members of the committee alleged the SBA was using taxpayer money to go into the swing state to shore up President Joe Biden’s reelection chances by registering individuals who will likely vote Democratic.
“The SBA is tasked with aiding, counseling, and protecting the interests of small businesses across our great nation,” committee chair Roger Williams, R-Texas, said in his opening statement. “Instead of fulfilling these goals, the SBA has entangled itself in electioneering activities that not only lack a constitutional basis, but also betray the trust and purpose for which the agency was established.”

Micah Beckwith believes Lt. Gov. campaign has momentum going into convention
INDIANAPOLIS — Micah Beckwith believes that his campaign for lieutenant governor, one that some may see as unprecedented, currently has momentum going into the state’s Republican convention though he acknowledged he’s still shy of the delegates needed for the nomination.
“We are seeing a lot of momentum in our camp,” Beckwith said in a recent interview with FOX59/CBS4, “and people are really starting to ask the question of who does the lieutenant governor work for in the state of Indiana. Do you work for the governor or do you work for the people?”
Beckwith announced in February that he would campaign for the lieutenant governor position, leaving the decision up to Republican delegates later this month. Beckwith is a pastor, a podcast host and a small business owner.
Braun picks Indiana Rep. McGuire as preferred choice for Lt. Governor position
Traditionally, delegates with the state’s Republican party have chosen a lieutenant governor candidate that was preferred by the gubernatorial nominee. Beckwith is challenging that normal approach, actively campaigning for the position.
In May, U.S. Senator Mike Braun, R-Ind., the Republican nominee for Indiana’s governor, announced that he has endorsed Indiana Rep. Julie McGuire, R-District 93 for the lieutenant governor position.
McGuire, who was first elected to the Indiana General Assembly in November 2022, serves Perry Township, as well as a portion of Franklin Township in Marion County in the Indiana House of Representatives.
“I want to be a part of this legislative agenda,” McGuire said in May. “I’m ready to be a part of the team with Mike. I’m ready to move good, conservative policy forward in the state.”
Beckwith believes that he’s campaigning for the lieutenant governor position because of the power it has in the state of Indiana.
“It’s one of the most robust lieutenant governor positions in the entire nation,” Beckwith said. “Yet, we’ve kind of treated it like the governor’s secretary for the last three decades. I think it’s time to put that back in the hands of the people.”

Vanderburgh County
Ousted candidates say they're committed to removing Duckworth as GOP chair
EVANSVILLE — Making a day of reckoning for Vanderburgh County Republican Chairman Mike Duckworth actually happen would demand patience and persistence from those who seek his removal.
Duckworth is at war with party conservatives enflamed by his use of Indiana's "two-primaries" law to remove their candidates from the May 7 GOP primary ballot while giving waivers to violators of the law who he does support. It's all legal, but Duckworth's crticis believe the GOP was needlessly divided by the chairman's decision to waiver in an otherwise ineligible challenger for longtime Republican County Commissioner Cheryl Musgrave.
They also didn't like his complaints that got three of his most prominent intraparty critics − Michael Daugherty, Ken Colbert and Cheryl Batteiger-Smith − banned from seeking office as Republicans for five-plus years, just 27 days after they won intraparty elections. It happened June 3.
Duckworth has said repeatedly that these Republicans are not good party members and are too critical of GOP leaders. In turn, Daugherty, Colbert and Batteiger-Smith have vowed to seek the necessary two-thirds of precinct committee members and vice committeemen to remove Duckworth before his term expires in March.
But it won't be easy.
According to Indiana Republican State Committee rules, the first thing that has to happen is a meeting of the "County Committee" — elected and appointed GOP precinct committee members and the vice committee members that they appoint. Given that Vanderburgh County has 135 voting precincts, that's potentially as many as 270 people.
But it wouldn't be up to Duckworth alone to call such a meeting, something he would be unlikely to do anyway.
It could be called, according to the rules, "upon notice signed by at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the members of the County Committee." But they have to have been members for "at least thirty (30) days prior to the meeting date (whether elected or appointed)."
The 84 precinct committee candidates who were elected in the primary after being recruited by anti-Duckworth conservatives were certified by the Vanderburgh County Election Board on May 15. But the rules say they have to have been in office for 30 days before the meeting date — not the date they took office.
Anyone collecting signatures to call a meeting to move against Duckworth would have to work relatively quickly. And then bide their time.
"If a meeting is called by members of the County Committee, it must be called within twenty (20) days from the date the first signature is obtained," the rules state. "A notice, signed by every member joining in the call shall be communicated at least ten (10) days in advance of such meeting."
If Duckworth's opponents do make a meeting of precinct committee members and their vice committeemen happen, one of them must then motion to call for a special meeting to consider his removal.

INDIANA LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR CANDIDATES VISIT LOCAL DELEGATES
JUNE 10. 2024
With only one week left until the Indiana State GOP Convention, Lieutenant Governor candidates made stops in Evansville to stump for votes from local delegates.
Mike Braun accompanied his preferred candidate, Julie McGuire, to Vanderburgh Republican Headquarters on Saturday. The event was by invitation, and many Vanderburgh County delegates were not invited. Some of the not invited delegates speculated that they may have been left out because they are committed to Micah Beckwith.
Beckwith appeared at City Gate in Evansville Saturday night in front of an enthusiastic group of about 60 people from Vanderburgh, Warrick, Posey, and Gibson counties. Before Beckwith spoke, attendees watched a short video recorded last year in which Mike Braun shared his respect for Beckwith and encouraged him to run for Lieutenant Governor.
One of the event organizers, Ken Colbert, estimated that 31 Vanderburgh County delegates were present. Vanderburgh County voters elected 46 delegates for the convention, but Colbert and Michael Daugherty were found to be “not in good standing” by the local GOP Party hierarchy and removed. The removed delegates cannot be replaced, leaving Vanderburgh County with 44 seats.
The convention convenes will be held at 10 AM Eastern time next Saturday (June 15), and delegates will approve Todd Rokita as the Attorney General candidate (Rokita is unopposed) and select the Lieutenant Governor candidate between Julie McGuire and Micah Beckwith.

JUNE 10. 2024
With only one week left until the Indiana State GOP Convention, Lieutenant Governor candidates made stops in Evansville to stump for votes from local delegates.
Mike Braun accompanied his preferred candidate, Julie McGuire, to Vanderburgh Republican Headquarters on Saturday. The event was by invitation, and many Vanderburgh County delegates were not invited. Some of the not invited delegates speculated that they may have been left out because they are committed to Micah Beckwith.
Beckwith appeared at City Gate in Evansville Saturday night in front of an enthusiastic group of about 60 people from Vanderburgh, Warrick, Posey, and Gibson counties. Before Beckwith spoke, attendees watched a short video recorded last year in which Mike Braun shared his respect for Beckwith and encouraged him to run for Lieutenant Governor.
One of the event organizers, Ken Colbert, estimated that 31 Vanderburgh County delegates were present. Vanderburgh County voters elected 46 delegates for the convention, but Colbert and Michael Daugherty were found to be “not in good standing” by the local GOP Party hierarchy and removed. The removed delegates cannot be replaced, leaving Vanderburgh County with 44 seats.
The convention convenes will be held at 10 AM Eastern time next Saturday (June 15), and delegates will approve Todd Rokita as the Attorney General candidate (Rokita is unopposed) and select the Lieutenant Governor candidate between Julie McGuire and Micah Beckwith.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: DISGRUNTLED LOCAL REPUBLICANS SPEAK OUT ABOUT DISCRIMINATORY ACTIONS OF THE VANDERBURGH COUNTY GOP LEADERSHIP
JUNE 10, 2024
LETTER ONE
I am new to the Republican Party. It is shocking how things are being handled as far as elected and certified officials in Vanderburgh County in the May 7th, 2024 Primary.
Michael Daugherty and Kenneth Colbert were chosen fairly by the people in this election and now they are being put before a kangaroo court to take them out of 2 separate offices.
I don’t understand how this can happen. Makes no sense to remove from office 2 very hard and diligent working people duly elected from office. Both helped new candidates acclimate to the election process and brought new people into the Republican Party. Both care deeply about the Republican party and the people of Vanderburgh County.
I pray that all involved in this decision would examine their hearts and their motives for removing these 2 duly elected and certified officials, and realize you will be held accountable for your actions. I don’t see how being able to speak for 1 minute is fair in anyone’s eyes.
The hearings on Monday, June 4th for 3 precinct committeemen were very unfair as well. Being allowed 3 minutes to speak in a 45-minute hearing is outrageous.
These officials, PCs, and State Delegates have rights, given by the Constitution to speak freely, Seems those in charge of this hearing have violated those rights, and the hearing on June 4th, 2024. I am ashamed of the actions of those in charge of these hearings.
I pray that none of you sleep until you reveal the truth to “We The People”.
SINCERELY,
Tracy Kissel PC
SECOND LETTER
I and many of my Conservative friends in CenterTownship in Vanderburgh County voted for Michael Daugherty and Ken Colbert to be our chosen delegates to the IN GOP Convention. We voted for them because they use their 1st Amendment rights to stand up and be a voice for our shared values when our local leadership has gone astray.
They both were certified as our delegate representatives. If you now stop them from being our delegates, you are disenfranchising our many votes for them.
I have been a PC, and past delegate, till Duckworth manipulated our township and # of delegates allowed per chosen area, and I did not make the cut this last primary, even though I had twice the votes as 2 years ago. I come to all the few meetings he has had, I pay the Country Club price to attend the banquets, and I work our GOP booth at our Fall Festival.
Please do NOT disenfranchise my votes and those of others. I might leave the party, even if they don’t CANCEL me like they have Michael and Ken.
It may be within the party “rules” to do what they have done, but it is still WRONG, and disloyal to other Republicans.
This behavior is nothing better than what the corrupt Democrat Lawfare is doing to Trump.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Molloy
THIRD LETTER
What in the heck is happening to the GOP in Southern Indiana? I have heard the local GOP leadership is trying to remove PCs & delegates duly elected by voters in Vanderburgh County/ Center township. Why is the will of the voters being undermined by the local corrupt GOP leadership? This should not be allowed to happen and should be stopped.
Clara Featherstone,
FOURTH LETTER
We are extremely distressed that the state GOP is attempting to remove duly elected and certified Delegates to the State Convention, Mike Daugherty and Ken Colbert. By doing so, the party is nullifying the votes of the men’s constituents.
If the people’s votes don’t count, why do we vote? Why are the people denied the right to choose who represents us? Who gives the party the right to overthrow the votes of the people to select their own choices to fill those seats?

Republican group is running anti-Trump ads in Indiana, pushing back on his immunity claim
A Republican group is running ads in Indiana and other states calling for the Supreme Court to reject Donald Trump’s claim of presidential immunity from criminal prosecution related to the the 2020 election.
Republicans for the Rule of Law, a partisan group focusing on loyalty to the constitution over party alliance, expects to spend up to $50,000 in Indiana on its anti-Trump ads and hopes for approximately 1 million views in-state. Overall, the group is spending $2 million across 12 states. The ads will air on digital and streaming platforms until June 23.
The campaign features over 25 testimonials from conservative voters across the nation opposing the idea of presidential immunity. The goal is to expose conservative Americans these arguments through “people who look and sound like them,” according to a press release.
More:Indiana isn't a battleground state. But national Dems want to help break GOP supermajority
The U.S. Supreme Court is expected to rule in the coming weeks on whether Trump can be charged criminally in a case alleging that he interfered with the 2020 election.
Indiana's inclusion in the ad buy is notable because the state isn't known as a battleground state, and likely won't be in play for November's presidential race. Trump easily won here in 2020, beating President Joe Biden by 16 percentage points. Plus, a March poll from Emerson College Polling found that 55% of registered Indiana voters said they support Trump, compared to just 34% who said they support Biden.
Several 2024 “battleground states” are included in the campaign: Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Joe Biden won all five in 2020. Other states included lean more red: Texas, Florida, Ohio, Tennessee, Alabama and South Carolina. Trump won all these states by hundreds of thousands of votes in 2020.
More:Dems want to beat Todd Rokita in November. Will a contested AG race hurt their chances?
In the press release, Republicans for the Rule of Law stated the campaign targeted states where arguments for immunity may be scarce and which are directly impacted by obstruction of justice claims.
“Our constitutional system is predicated on legal accountability and equal justice under the law, even for presidents and past presidents,” said Sarah Longwell, executive director of Republicans for the Rule of Law. “Conservatives feel this in our bones: No man or woman is above the law. In this case, that means rejecting the ‘absolute immunity’ claim.”

The American College of Pediatricians just put out a statement calling out all the major medical associations by name for pushing the gender transition craze on kids.
They ask for these groups to "IMMEDIATELY stop the promotion of social affirmation, puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for children and adolescents who experience distress over their biological sex."

People say, wow, that’s super extreme. No, it’s not”: What Micah Beckwith is telling GOP delegates to win them over

As I reported last week, Noblesville pastor Micah Beckwith’s unconventional campaign for the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor appears to be surging. Several GOP insiders I spoke with believe he will upset Mike Braun’s hand-picked candidate Julie McGuire at the state convention this Saturday.
That’s in part due to his performance at a series of meet-and-greet events he’s been holding all across the state for the 1,814 convention delegates who will vote to select Braun’s lieutenant governor running mate.
I was in attendance at one such gathering last Tuesday in Fort Wayne. Beckwith spoke to a standing-room only crowd of around 60 individuals for over an hour. (Approximately 45 raised their hand when he asked who among them was a delegate.)
Two nights later, he was in Nappanee for a meetup hosted by former Congressman Marlin Stutzman (IN-3) — who won the GOP nomination for his old seat last month — and his wife Christy, herself once a state representative. I was sent a full video of Beckwith’s remarks from that evening, which I was able to independently confirm to be authentic.
At both events, Beckwith shared how he became involved in politics and decided to run for lieutenant governor, then took questions from the crowd. His skills as a pastor and politician were on full display, and members of the crowd responded to him multiple times with a “yes!” or applause.
It was a stark contrast with the mood at the event Braun’s campaign held for McGuire in Fort Wayne on June 1, which felt more like a chamber of commerce mixer than a political gathering to rally support for her candidacy.
“The church in America was dropping the ball”
Beckwith told the delegates in both Fort Wayne and Nappanee that it was his belief that America was straying from its Christian principles that motivated him to get into politics.
“I started recognizing something very concerning to me, that the church in America was dropping the ball on stewarding our nation,” he said in Nappanee. “When [the church] started shutting our mouths, the silent majority did a huge disservice to this nation. We became quiet. No wonder we’ve gone off the rails.”
Beckwith blamed America’s problems on a list of issues for which, according to him, the Bible has already provided guidance.
“Isn’t it interesting that all of the political things that are destroying our nation right now are things like marriage, things like abortion, things like parental rights, things like the sovereignty of our borders, things like taxes. But wouldn’t you know, God has said something about all of those issues.”
Beckwith told the delegates in Nappanee that God literally called him to step up and make sure America does not lose its Biblical values.
“It was like the Lord hit me with a ton of bricks. He said, ‘Micah, if you do not get involved in the political battle, they will warp and destroy everything that I have set up in this nation that is rooted in Judeo-Christian principles.’ Those principles go away, then our nation goes away.”

Colbert Comment:
Look at the attached political postcards…What do you see?
The elected or appointed Delegates should determine the Indiana Lieutenant Governor, not elected officials occupying the positions reserved for the common man. This occurs at the Indiana Democrat and Republican Conventions. This a privilege of the common man to participate in free and fair elections.
But wait!!! It’s been weaponized to allow existing elected officials to determine elected officials. Let me explain: This is just a few examples of many that occur in VANDERBURGH County; and every County in the State.
Tim Obrien, Wendy McNamara, Jim Tomes, and etc, intentionally run for positions that should be reserved for the public to participate. The primary election 🗳️ is conducted and the public, unbeknownst, do not vote for the common man to fill the position m, but name recognition of existing politicians. It’s premeditated and a travesty.
As example: Wendy McNamara wins as a Delegate to represent the people, travels to Indianapolis to vote for the “establishment preferred candidate” over the people’s candidate. The issue is the public is ignorant to the election process and blindly votes for the same candidate, year after year in the Primary .
The attached flyers are endorsement of already “elected” officials pushing for the “establishments handpicked puppet”. The Indiana legislators should pass legislation to ban elected officials from participating in the Delegate and Precinct Committeeman process. It will NEVER HAPPEN though, The politicians prefer to perpetuate their control.
It is the proverbial Fox 🦊 guarding the hen house.
Micah Beckwith is the most qualified candidate to be Indiana Lieutenant Governor. I’ve heard both candidates presentations. Why would Braun endorse a marginal candidate, named Julie McGuire? Be aware of the manipulation to control your vote. Do not fall prey to the propaganda and manipulation.

NEW: They’re now issuing report cards for states based on how they rate allowing the grooming of our children.
YES! Indiana got a D- I couldn't be happier. We would have gotten an “F”, but Reitz High School in VANDERBURGH County has an active “Gender Identity Club”. It’s approved by the Evansville VANDERBURGH School Corporation; all in the name of “inclusion”.
How did your state rate?
