I would definitely attend a town hall, but my congressman (Balderson) refuses to hold one.

Turner hasn't help one in years and is never in the office, You can go and speaker to a staffer.

Hold on yourself, and invite your Congressman to attend. Invite as many as you can, see if he or staff shows up.

I called Rep Mike Carey's office in DC the other day ~ spoke to a staffer ~ I have to say he was cordial and respectful in our conversation. At the end I asked, "WHEN will Mike Carey be having a town hall?" The young man replied (kind of eagerly), " Oh! If you would like to sign up for our NEWSLETTER, you can keep informed of what the congressman is doing!"

I responded firmly, "NO! I want Mr. Carey to answer questions that people ask him IN PERSON!"

To which he replied rather deflatedly, "Oh, ok, I will pass along that message." And that was the end of the call.

So... guess when the next town hall is going to be??? LOL ~ hmmm... maybe the twelfth of NEVER...?? Idk ~ but I wouldn't be holding that precious breath of yours!

A century ago, a German sociologist explained precisely how Donald Trump thinks about the world, @jon_rauch writes. Understanding this view is essential to defeating it. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/02/corruption-trump-administration/681794/?gift=4dTfJpaWKAxPRgFrKJwrAJ-Vynm9u7AcdT7Ukld6NSo&utm_source=email&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=social. Here is how to deal with Trump and his INCOMPETENT and CORRUPT administration. And use it to go after the Gutless Cowards that make up the Republican party who do NOT care about their very own constituents. Go after him and them all the time, everywhere, and do NOT let up on them. Keep up the pressure all the time. They cannot escape the damage they are doing and the hurt that is happening to their very OWN constituents. Show and Tell with real live examples of real people and families and communities that are being hurt and damaged by this INCOMPETENT and CORRUPT administration. Do NOT let them breathe..............

Speaker Johnson stating town hall attendees were paid by Democrats is straight from the finest, well-documented Soviet & Russian propaganda tactics. You can hear this kind of dismissive talk by Russian officials today.

Getting wrapped ip about party is counter to this:

—> What kind of country do we want to live in <—

and what leaders are actually going in that direction.

Is anyone else having trouble connecting with the links that David shares? I get an error message that his Substack has redirected me too many times. It suggests that I 'delete cookies' which I did, but still getting message. It's making me a little paranoid...
