We freepers are going to have to get organized to do this with all legislation put forward by this congress henceforth. Will need to start a legislation thread for everything house and senate. Perhaps separate house vs Senate threads. Will need someone that can find pending legislation before the votes ( perhaps while in committee) and post to thread.

Divide and conquer would be the rule along with sponsor names and states they rep. Blow up the contents bigly along with report talking points. Forward hot buttons/pork/subterfuge to local conservative or extreme liberal orgs/talk radio hosts/ print media. Be ready to guest appear ( expert We The People analyst) letters to editors, attend and speak from the floor at Rep/Dem/Lib/independent party meetings, etc.

Perhaps we could organize and form a “We The People” forum (Schafly Style) w state orgs. (Getting outside the box here) This type of activity would definitely bring us out from under the radar but might also become a legit tea party replacement.

1. Could we bring order from chaos in National legislation by ensuring we the people know what’s in it before the swamp votes in a very public way?
2. Could we enlist the Rush/Hannity/Ingraham/talk radio hosts to pick up the banner and run with legit info?
3. Are there legit heavy hitters we could enlist to work the MSM such as Sarah Palin, Ann Coulter, Buchanan, Huckabee, on our behalf?
4. The intent being an informed populace that could understand the difference between what the POTUS is asking for and what the bought and paid for swamp creatures are sending or intending to send to his desk!
5. There would also have to be analysis of the dead letter file for Good/Great legislation that is killed in committee to out these rats when they stop leg that would restore rights/freedoms and restrict government.
This would be totally nonpartisan since we have equal opportunity destroyers on both sides of the aisle.

Analysis would be to bring your “report” to the class along with pros and cons with an insight to see the end game of the legislation ( degradation of a right, enlargement of gov, further intrusion of gov, destruction of personal privacy, etc. as well as economic analysis) and an up or down recommendation.

With this type of analysis we could deploy legitimate concerns to the above groups and talking heads and bring the swamp into the light of day. Can you imagine a ‘town meeting’ with an audience full of freepers or freeped citizens armed with legitimate concerns and talking points? These swamp creatures would soon be in worse shape than the governor in Mr. Smith goes to Washington.

Make no mistake, we would definitely be taking on ‘the machine’ but POTUS may have given us the opportunity with latest actions to make citizens like us the new 4am droppers to the MSM.......

Pray and think:

MAKE IT RAIN

There used to be a Senate thread, and I used to cover the Senate pretty close. More detail than necessary, but composing remarks kept me from falling asleep.

Now I pick and choose which issues to dig into. Once you figure out that the floor speeches and press coverage are misleading, the thrill is pretty much gone.

That’s a great idea re: legislation threads. Whenever they stuff this much into one piece of legislation, and spell it out in legalese, it creates an environment where people (and media) can proceed to tell US what it means and we as citizens are hard-pressed to decipher its meaning on our own.

If 2200 people got involved each one would only have to read one page...

That would be awesome, sign me up if you can do it.

Reddit has a r/The_Congress, but not a lot happens there other than introducing MAGA agenda candidates, from what I’ve seen. It would be good to make your suggestions into a thread there, too. Most right-leaning attention still goes to The_Donald, naturally.

Billy’s, I love your call to organized action!

We would need to summarize our findings into brief talking points that are easy to understand; short and pithy like the President’s tweets. Graphics and memes would be very useful in getting the masses red-pilled.
