Dear Mr. Levin,

My name is Lauren Stephens. I’ve been involved in politics for a long time – mostly just as a pissed off American, but I also own a campaign services company. I do not work for any of the Presidential Campaigns. I am not coordinated with any of them. I have not spoken to any of them. I am not being paid by anyone for this. I am getting absolutely nothing for writing this.

First off, I would like to let you know that I have been a huge fan and follower of yours since probably about 2007 or 2008. I have several, but not all, of your books. They are really good stuff. I have even downloaded the majority of your podcasts.

Mr. Levin, for years, I have had nothing but the utmost respect for you. Your word has always been your bond. If you doubt my sincerity, you can ask a former co-worker of yours from the Reagan Administration, Dixie Cassell. You could ask a real patriot, C Steven Tucker, from the Chicago area. You could ask a lot of people. They know me.

For years, you have been a champion of We The People, and maybe today, you still believe that you are. But at this point, I beg to differ. Not because I want to, but because I believe I have a little bit more inside information than you have on certain issues surrounding the Presidential race. And the GOP.

I hope you will keep in mind, my respect and admiration for you, before you respond – IF you respond. Although I am angry, I come to you without malice. I am here simply because I know of no other way to get this message to you.

She is right on not liking Cruz. Cruz puts on a real good impression of what he will do but that is all it is. The current established Republicans in the House and Senate have let America slip in a dictatorship with King Obama at it head will never be forgotten.

Ha great post

[Aria]

Agree that it’s informative - I had no idea about the shennanigans in Wisconsin.

These people have screwed us over for decades.

[Aria]

I am not Lauren Stephens.

She is right about the GOP establishment, but she is wrong on ethanol. It is a big deal. It is the epitome of crony capitalism that exists to enrich the few at the expense of many. If a candidate can't even stand up to a program that is not only wasteful, but harmful, then I question that person's ability to really make a change in DC.

So, do you think Cruz should be admonished for not speaking out against Oil and Gas subsidies in the same way Trump has been attacked regarding the Ethanol subsidies?

From Wikipedia article Energy Subsidies:

A 2009 study by the Environmental Law Institute[30] assessed the size and structure of U.S. energy subsidies in 2002-08. The study estimated that subsidies to fossil fuel-based sources totaled about $72 billion over this period and subsidies to renewable fuel sources totaled $29 billion. The study did not assess subsidies supporting nuclear energy.

The three largest fossil fuel subsidies were:

1. Foreign tax credit ($15.3 billion)
   
2. Credit for production of non-conventional fuels ($14.1 billion)
   
3. Oil and Gas exploration and development expensing ($7.1 billion)

The three largest renewable fuel subsidies were:

1. Alcohol Credit for Fuel Excise Tax ($11.6 billion)
   
2. Renewable Electricity Production Credit ($5.2 billion)
   
3. Corn-Based Ethanol ($5.0 billion)

Big Oil Lobbyist Jack Gerard Lies About Industry Not Getting Subsidies

I quit. Sorry.

[chris37]

Cool.

[Chuckster]

They have all seen what happened to Sarah Palin.

[justlittleoleme]

Just a little info on her, never heard of her before.

These days on about everything I hear and examine a person's political motivations when they attack.

Trump came out on vaccine-autism controversy a while back, and I think that may be what got her attention.

I did not follow this and have no clue of the history of this movement. But thought this may be applicable to the discussion.

Lauren Stephens Loves Trump..

It appears she also runs a campaign consulting service:

The Mailing Address for the domain registration for laurenstephens.com
Is PO Box 1170, SANGER, CA (pulled from whois information)

Now if you keep going down the rabbit hole and search for
PO Box 1170, Sanger, CA

You get links referring to the SB277 Referendum in California.

Which after digging I found an archive of her website:

Dear SB277 Opponents: Tim Donnelly and Lauren Stephens Killed the Movement
http://rightondaily.com/2015/10/dear-sb277-opponents-tim-donnelly-and-lauren-stephens-killed-the-movement/ - October 17, 2015

I saw the anguish of the women who never understood how Lauren Stephens lied to them during the effort. Some still do not comprehend how Tim Donnelly lied to them. What we see today is Tim Donnelly’s narcissism on display as he continues to spin every way he can to avoid an apology, while the sociopath Stephens has tried to throw him and others under the bus to save herself.

Let me apologize to the women who fear for their children’s safety. We tried to help you. We tried to warn you. I am sorry that I can’t fix this… Just make sure you inform people so Tim Donnelly and Lauren Stephens can’t hurt anyone else.

Lauren Stephens filed the referendum based on a paranoid conspiracy she created in her head. She lied repeatedly and used people. She broke people’s hearts and got Tim Donnelly involved because Donnelly has tax liens, bankruptcies and owes people money.

Donnelly got money to keep his failing radio show on the air for a while longer while the SB277 Referendum failed miserably. While Tim is too broken of a person to even apologize or be honest with himself about what he did – Lauren Stephens does not care one bit.

She’s off to her next scam.

Not to wander off in the weeds, but it occurs to me- or I hope, that people will begin to remember what power we have. We should have treated what happened to Gov Palin the same way Trump rally attendees treat protesters in their ranks. Note that the number of protesters at Trump rallies isn’t growing.

Lefties have no compunction about ‘’standing up for’’ themselves or others they see as victims. And it’s not even real.
Why do we?

You are looking for Christian traits that are being stamped out of our culture by judges, socialists, feminists, libertarians, elites and Muslims.

[DrewsDad]

Searched and this didn't turn up as already posted.

Yeah, we alked about this delusional lady the other night.

FR:Open Letter To Mark Levin About Ted Cruz, Trump, and GOPe

[nclaurel]

Links only lead to sources like Bloomberg, New York Times etc. why are you afraid of just information.

[nclaurel]

Even if she lies how that that change the information at the links.

[Aria]

Since you have done the work..can you tell me about this vaccination thing - was she supposedly for or against? And then the fact of the matter, according to what you posted, is that it was a lie - she was really against? It appears she was against vaccinations and failed to make it happen.

How does this apply to TC’s actual campaign finance reform documents and how does it apply to her support of Trump?

One thing that was odd about her letter was her support for Trump/Cruz after calling Cruz a liar and a sneak. How does that make sense?

[Aria]

Ahh...I searched the title so that’s why it didn’t come up.
