Word is Hakeem Jeffries is in town today to stump for @DeniseForNE.
Shocker. An out of state coastal liberal elitist coming to town to support another out of state coastal liberal elitist in Dark Money Denise.

Has Jim Pillen been a great governor? No.
Has he been a good governor? Again, no.
Will I be voting for Lynne Walz? HELL NO!

@LPNational Motion to disaffiliate LPSF, effective immediately, please.

All the great libertarians are embarrassed to be associated with the Libertarian Party.
Everyone from Ron Paul, Rand Paul, and Thomas Massie chose to run GOP rather than tarnish their brand. And now they’ve lost one of the greatest foreign policy minds in the world. I'm still involved in my state affiliate, but even I feel like I have to include an asterisk every time I say I’m a member.
One would think the people involved would stop to wonder why, but they really don’t care because they actually have little ties to the intellectual tradition and are simply Bolsheviks in Libertarian clothing.
Back in 2004, I went to the Libertarian Party convention in Atlanta, and after the long weekend decided that I would not join. The people who run it are just too removed from the rest of the movement and the rest of the society. They didn't give shit about Iraq! the most important thing in the world at the time. Hardly heard of it apparently. Didn't know how horrible it would look invite hawks to give speeches. Just facepalm.
I tried advising the LP presidential nominee that year. That reinforced the same lesson: This is not worth the effort. I have more important things to do.
A few years ago, I finally joined the LP at the urging of my friends who were working to take the party over in the name of the actual American libertarian movement, as exemplified by the thinking and writing of Dr. Ron Paul, especially.
The real point was to get the party together before we ran Dave Smith for president, which he thankfully in retrospect decided not to do.
Well, at the last convention the libertarians didn't show up, only the Libertarians. So, a gay porn producer and new wave haircut lady and their crew took the party back over.
It really sucks because there are so many good people in the party who work very hard and fight good fights. But the organization itself, as a democracy, is just completely retarded and it always will be.
Today a friend sent me screenshots of these degenerate scum -- specifically the LP of San Francisco -- claiming the right to hurt children because they think freedom means getting away with being a piece of shit and violating the rights of helpless victims.
Send in the SWAT Team.
It's a foregone conclusion that the party leadership will do nothing about this.
The LP always has been and remains a disaster for the good name of our movement.
They'll probably run that filth Joe Walsh for president next time. He fits right in there.
So I hereby officially resign from the Libertarian Party, and will instead continue to fight for liberty by other means.

Theres been a lot of rumblings out there of what “the plan” is to create a new lane for the America First movement. I have spent the last couple of months getting in contact a very diverse group of voices to pitch a plan that benefits and represents everybody within the coalition, that gives us something new while also having built in infrastructure, that maintains tactical flexibility to support legitimately good primary candidates while also having our own thing, and that focuses scarce, upstart resources on the highest value pressure points to make real impact toward our interests within the political system.
There is a plan, there are leaders, and there is a strategy. Big announcements will be coming soon on all of that.
For now, know that we are building a home for this movement that we call the American Liberty Party. This party will be America First, and its focuses will be on the sovereignty and freedom of the American nation, their interests, their justice, their liberty, their institutions, their families and their ability to earn a living to sustain these things.
We need your help. We need to know that you all are with us, ready to move, to act and to fight for the preservation of the American dream.

.@RhuleAid is a Nebraska treasure.
He’s a Nebraska citizen who simply does his homework on political activism in our state.
On political issues, I’ve always felt it was fairly easy to parse through commentary, gauging who is chasing paychecks and who is speaking from the heart. But you really can’t teach that skill.
Thankfully we have people like @RhuleAid who identify the dark money ties in an easily digestible format. Every citizen should know and read his stuff.
I am grateful for Nebraskans like him.
**1/** The receipts. Today, between 1:31 and 1:34 PM, @BtrNeighborsNet, @UnitedForEquity, @free_citizens1, @SmaIITownTruth and @RealNews_Fast all posted nearly the same line about Ricketts and pardons.

Let me dumb it down a little for you. Americans don't make money on this. It all starts with our money as a tax that is stolen from our dinner tables. Then it is used to manufacture weapons which are sent overseas. The profit from those weapons are never returned to the American people, they are funneled back to the elites in charge. We are also seeing that money funneled to political campaigns.
So no, I'm not okay with the United States government and elites making money through death.

Government That Works PAC gave Lynne Walz for Nebraska $250,000 on Oct 20.
Filed with the NADC on Oct 22, it's GTW's only state-level contribution. GTW took $4M from Sixteen Thirty Fund, a defendant in Hilgers v. Wyss, and is Nebraska Values PAC's top PAC donor at $2.8M.

Nebraska property owners face an unsustainable tax burden driven by...
#1 Skyrocketing property valuations;
#2 Unfunded mandates with "unitended" consequences; and
#3 Local elected officials who WASTE YOUR money through incompetence, ineffectiveness, malfeasance/fraud, or PURPOSEFUL agenda driven defiance.
FULL STOP.
Ignoring these facts and putting any legislative effort into law making that does NOT include Property Taxation Reform or Reset is a dereliction of duty as a law-making representative of the people.
It's time for direct, permanent property tax REFORM across our state.
ONE initiative amends Nebraska Revised Statute § 77-201 to cut the taxable valuation rate of all real property by 50%—lowering the baseline valuation for residential and commercial real estate down to 50% of actual market value, and agricultural/horticultural land down to 37.5%.
👇Use the CALCULATOR to see the results in the Substack posted below
This one state statute, and ONLY this statute, delivers THE ONLY immediate, substantial tax relief across all 93 Nebraska counties without introducing new state sales or income taxes, all while preserving local control.
State senators could DO THIS in 3 to 4 months if they just had the courage and the WILL—instead of wasting time and hiding behind endless committees that produce absolutely nothing.
The absolute arrogance of pretending these are "unattainable solutions" is insulting.
The truth is, they operate through a "Government First, People Never" lens. To them, YOUR paycheck exists for one reason: to feed and fund government bloat with taxpayer dollars.
YOUR property value is there to be used as collateral for ALL SERVICE RENDERED or subjectively applied by local property taxing authorities.
The vision to look at actual tax relief and ask what happens when everyday Nebraskans actually keep more of their hard-earned money is seemingly unfathomable.
We are done waiting on politicians who refuse to act.
It's time to force real, permanent change.
Read the full details and KNOW that the Nebraska Tax Plan exists.

Nebraska’s Elk Creek mine will unleash American critical minerals — supporting U.S. defense, automotive, aerospace, energy and advanced manufacturing industries!

We already know that Reid Hoffman is in those files. Will you return every dollar that he and his SuperPacs have put towards your campaign?
What do you say to innocent people and victims that would be scandalized by false accusations released in those files?

The amount of Gas tax that is fair:
Federal: $0
State: $0
Abolish Gas Taxes Permanently.
