People are so docile right now. It is almost as if good government means when the politicians lie to us for our own good, for the public good, and bad government is when politicians lie for their own selfish interests. James Bovard
Politicians are a lot like diapers. They should be changed frequently, and for the same reasons. Mark Twain
The only difference between death and taxes is that death doesn’t get worse every time Congress meets. Will Rogers
We have the right as individuals to give away as much of our own money as we please in charity; but as members of Congress, we have no right to appropriate a dollar of the public money. Davy Crockett
The cookies were about to come out of the oven when I heard Congressman Brian Mast tell Dan Bongino that our soldiers were told they had run out of ballots and some would not be able to vote. Mind you, I didn’t hear the whole conversation, but my ears perked up when Mast spoke. This was just yesterday, October 29, 2024. The election is a week away.
Later that afternoon, I wrote to a fellow journalist and told her what I heard. She asked for the documentation. I figured that would be easy, I’ll just give Brian Mast’s office a call. Unfortunately, there was no one in his DC office or Florida office. I called the next day, explained what I was after and was told to email his press secretary, Haris Alec and that he would get back to me very quickly. So far, nothing.
Our public servants haven’t been in session for almost two months. It’s an election year of course, and they’re really unavailable to the people in their districts who they are supposed to serve.
Here is their schedule for the year.
Unfortunately, I found that most of the office personnel and aides were also not as well informed as I thought they would be.
I phoned a friend of mine whose husband is a congressman and she said to call Eli Crane’s office as he’s a member of the Homeland Security Committee. I again called both the DC office and his Arizona office. I left messages with the folks I spoke to regarding what I needed to verify. No one knew anything about our military personnel not getting enough ballots.
Next up I phoned Mark Green in Tennessee and talked to the personnel in the DC office and told them what I needed. Again, no one knew anything and couldn’t really help me, but they did take messages and said if they found out anything, they’d email or call me.
Thinking this had turned into more of an ordeal than I thought it would, I went back to the computer and tried to find the October 29th show so I could listen to Brian Mast’s entire chat with Bongino. It wasn’t available.
Matt Rosendale is a strong conservative and although he’s leaving at the end of this year, I called his Montana office and as I was leaving a message, a gentleman called me back from Matt’s office and said he was sorry he didn’t get to the phone when I called. I told him the whole story and he said he would call DC today and see what he could find out. I haven’t heard from him, but again, our representatives just aren’t available.
Thinking this was a lost cause, my own Congressman was the last source. I asked for Noah who heads the office of Congressman Tim Burchett. He wasn’t available. Anyone else available who would know? Nope. He said they weren’t allowed to discuss the election. Huh? Not allowed to find out if our soldiers were able to vote? Whoa! He said I needed to call Trey Hargett, the TN Secretary of State. Then he hung up. Calling Hargett didn’t seem realistic for what I was asking.
I gave up.
We sat down for dinner at 7:30 this evening and the phone rang. My husband looked at the caller ID and it said Crane. He picked up and it was Elise from Congressman Eli Crane’s office. I told her the whole story and she said that right now hardly anyone is available, but she would try to get in touch with the Congressman. This was the best answer yet.
One would think that while the representatives are out of session and in their home states that someone would be in their offices who would be able to answer questions from their constituents. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case, except for Congressman Crane’s office.
Missing in Action – The People We Pay!
The election is only five days away, early voting is over for most states on the 31st of October. If our military men and women are shorted ballots, by the time I can reach someone, it will be too late.
All of the Congressmen I phoned are republicans. I didn’t think any democrats on these committees would care since most enlisted vote for Republicans.

While watching the Wisconsin Trump rally this evening, our man Donald pulled off another legendary visual. Handing out bags of goodies at McDonalds was spectacular showmanship, but now he’s topped that.
At an evening rally in Pennsylvania on Tuesday the 29th, Rubio ran up on the stage and told Trump and the audience that Biden had just called the Trump supporters “garbage.” So, what was our man out doing today? Riding in a garbage truck, and tonight in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Trump wore a sanitation worker’s vest while giving his speech.

No one will ever top this amazing showman, the real “man of the people.”
And I thought nothing could top his second Butler, Pennsylvania rally with Christopher Macchio singing Ave Maria and Nessun Dorma. But again, he topped it!
Madison Square Garden was fabulous and again Christopher Macchio sang. This time it was New York, New York to a sold-out crowd with 75,000 outside.
This is the man who has been through living hell for the last nine years. He belongs in our White House. We’ll never see anyone like him again.
Donald J. Trump really is a class act.
And here in this less than two-minute YouTube video you will see why our 45th President must also be our 47th President of the United States. Only once before did a president skip a term and then return. That was Grover Cleveland in 1885 and again in 1893.
Trump loves God, family, our beautiful country and her people. He really is the best president we’ve had in my lifetime.
