38. Vern Buchanan (10th richest in Congress) just dared to email me to take a "flash poll" and get money. Bad move.

I wanted to send him a big "fuck you," but instead sent this:

MR. BUCHANAN:

You, Trump, DOGE, and this party are a danger to the national security of the United States and the West. You have allied with an international war criminal who has broken four -- not one, but FOUR Rome statutes: (8(2)(a)(vii) and 8(2)(b)(viii); article 25(3)(a); article 28(b).
You have allied with lawless oligarchs who would rob the American people of TRILLIONS when you all don't even need that money.
You already have blood on your hands in your dismantling of the greatest government on Earth; you will have more blood on your hands when tens of thousands of Americans die.

Floridians of your district know this about you all.
Every single day, hundreds of protests continue all across the nation.
Republican voters know that you won't face them because you don't care about them as much as your TRILLIONS in tax cuts.

LISTEN TO YOUR VOTERS. IF YOU CALL YOURSELF CHRISTIAN, ACT LIKE ONE. SERVE JESUS, NOT MAMMON.

1. VOTE NO ON THE HOUSE REPUBLICAN SPENDING BILL AND

2. DO NOT LET HOUSE REPUBLICANS PIVOT TO RECONCILIATION; DO NOT LET DOGE DESTRUCTIONS CONTINUE TO HURT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.


VOTERS ARE WATCHING THIS VOTE. IF YOU VOTE YES ON EITHER, YOU WILL NOT GET A PENNY MORE FOR THE MIDTERMS OR 2028.

ALLOW CLOTURE AND A CR AND YOU MIGHT AS WELL DISSOLVE THE PARTY. .
