Let’s Talk Lexington (MA) Have you ever gone hiking with a friend who tells you, “don’t worry about it, this is an easy climb”. Hours later you’re panting, out of water and 6 false summits from the top… The recent proposal regarding discussion of firearms in Lexington felt a lot like this hike. Imagine being invited to participate in a discussion. You happily oblige, you arrive at the time and place, excited to get going, eager to participate. The conversation begins and everything that’s being said to you is wrong, the facts being presented as supporting evidence are anything but....

Reminder to Marylanders that the closing date for registration and changes to party affilation is tomorrow April 5. MD primaries are closed, to have an impact you must register as GOP or Dem only. Radio PSA on WMAL had a brief item about the surge of questions that BOE has received from unaffiliated voters. I've never heard a public announcement of this sort before. What it means is yet to be determined, but along with Gov Hogan (R) election, it just may point to another record turnout. Another point. The Board of Elections is advertising for election judges, a paid...

An email from COS: We are ever so close to passing our Convention of States Project resolution and having South Carolina become the 7th state to pass this historic Article V application. We have the votes in both chambers to pass the resolution on the chamber floor. Unfortunately we are being held up in both our House and Senate by two individuals. We thought we could get this done on our own, but the time has come to ask our sister states to help us. We need MASSIVE pressure put on the two individuals below for the reasons I will...

The biggest plus is a Trump/Cruz ticket would immediately secure the nomination for us (the majority of the right-leaning grassroots voters), end any possibility of a GOPe betrayal at the convention, and would ensure the Republican party is finally with we the grassroots people (tea party, conservatives, religious people, economic conservatives, business people, middle class, blue collar, national security patriots, etc, ie, a rebirth of the Reagan Coalition) and against the globalist GOP big government establishment. It’d be a yuuuge middle finger to the elite ruling classes of both parties. And it would have coattails guaranteeing a pro-America landslide against...

Hartford Tea Party co-founder endorses Ted Cruz and denounces Donald Trump. As one of the co-founders of the Hartford Tea Party in 2009, I was appalled to read the statement of Debbie Dooley, claiming that Donald Trump was the choice of someone who once claimed membership in a genuine grass roots organization dedicated to upholding the Constitution, reducing the size of government, eliminating government health care and opposing high government spending. In her endorsement for Donald Trump, she claimed the following:"I have been an activist fighting for conservative principles since 1976, so I reject individuals and publications that try to...

How a proven rock-ribbed leader handles protesters: https://youtu.be/GEXOpm0H7QA

The violent disruptions occurring at Trump conventions are a setup. DO NOT FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE. All you get is a bigger fire that is out of control. The welfare/communist left want escalation so they can appear justified in ratcheting up the use of force and ultimately control the outcome of the electoral process. They're luring you to show up at their rallies to get you on video fighting. The will counter with their Sturmabteilung. To stop a fire, remove the oxygen/fuel. Don't - show - up. Consider this scenario as a analogy: In a domestic situation a woman exists...

According to H.R. 347 (signed into law by Barack Hussein Obama in February, 2012) it is ILLEGAL under CURRENT FEDERAL to protest of any type, in an area under protection by the U.S. Secret Service. Because Donald Trump is under Secret Service Protection (as is Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders) and has been since November of 2015, it is a FEDERAL CRIME to protest at campaign rallies, and is in fact, punishable by imprisonment. Free Speech isn't covered at ANY Trump, Clinton, Sanders (or Cruz, Rubio, Kasich) rally because protests are considered to be "knowingly impeding or disrupting the orderly conduct...

We must fight fire with fire. We must infiltrate Bernie and Hilary's rallies. We must have groups of people who interlock arms and sit in the middle of their rallies. We need to yell accurate statements like Rapist Enabler, Felon and Commie. We need to make them forcibly remove us. It's the best way to fight back and to take control of the dialogue. Also Trump needs to stop calling these people protesters. They are not protesters. They are infiltrators and disrupters.
