I just could not believe the one I got today, all about God. I wanted to write back and say, well, then how come you caved on RFRA, but I opted to not expend that energy. Maybe I should have. πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

I responded to the state Republican Party message crowing about funding healthcare in the state last session 🀬 Who knows if anyone will read it or care but it felt good to say something!

Here is what I wrote:

As a long time Republican and small government conservative, I have to say,

I am absolutely disgusted that the supposedly conservative

Republicans in this state voted to increase the reach and

influence of our government, especially after the ridiculous overreach

during Covid that resulted in so many negative consequences

for our children, our elderly and all Hoosier citizens. It is unconscionable

that the Republicans want to give the health department that blindly

followed unscientific and damaging CDC policies more power and a

bigger budget. I will NOT be giving the GOP of this state any financial

support or contributions.

Please keep giving feedback like that to your elected state Representative and Senator and to your state Party officials, and certainly to the fundraising arm. We're in an internal war inside the Republican Party, and the RINO wing just denies the reality that our side seems to see. 'Nickels and noses' is what they pay attention to (if they can overcome the influence of the hidden PAC shell game money and influence).

If they’re counting noses, I guess they refuse to look at footage from Trump rallies. If any here have not checked that out for whatever reason, you might find that doing so would be tremendously encouraging just to see how many people don’t buy the lies. That is, unless TDS is keeping you in bondage to lies.

Good for you!

I’m in the process of writing thank you notes to each legislator who voted against the odious bill.

I must’ve missed that state GOP email, or maybe I get only my county GOP emails. And yeah, never give the party any money.

Good letter! We shouldn’t get discouraged. Even if it’s some underling handling the mail, you never know who you may influence. But it does get exhausting, coming from so many directions.

I ended up retrieving the message from Trash and wrote a response. These folks need to hear what we think.
