How my friend Chris Nelson inspires many

Today, I write about an awesome friend and political connection of mine, Chris Nelson. For anyone not familiar with him, I am linking his X here, https://twitter.com/reopenchris . Chris is a fellow supporter of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Chris is a great friend to a fantastic mutual friend of ours, Ayden Marietta, whom did a guest post on my blog here: https://realjustingeorge.blogspot.com/2024/01/indiania-and-what-comes-next.html     Chris takes the time to support Ayden and I in our respective political involvement and encourages us to stay involved in politics long term. He sets the example for so many people in how to never back down from what is right. Both Chris and Ayden inspired me to share that I am on the autism spectrum, more on that in a moment.   Chris has shared some of his journey on his platforms including his YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@ReOpenChris . I highly encourage you to watch his videos, they certainly are inspiring for me! Chris also shares

The problem of the DeWine veto

I recently wrote about how Daniel Horowitz discusses Florida on his podcasts, "There’s a reason Republicans are obsessed with owning the libs in meaningless skirmishes in blue states while ignoring what they can actually accomplish in red states: they elevate symbolism over substance, outcomes, and results." He goes onto say: that Florida is the one state actually holding vaccine makers accountable, as well as accomplishing other things. By the way, to keep Florida the great way it is long term, his Florida chapter is here: https://floridacan.org / I encourage everyone to sign up. I think it is certainly possible to make the southeast more like Florida, with West Virginia, perhaps Ohio, Indiana, Idaho, and Oklahoma being the scattered areas in which we can fortify those states The southeast is also a personal interest, being that I am glad my family and I moved out of Virginia in 2022 for many reasons. Sadly, as many know, many red states have RINO Governors, RINO legisl

Hope and vision amidst nonsense

I've been writing lately about Daniel Horowitz and other folks that I have connected with/become aware of. As time goes on, I will write more about the state levels since this is important. 2024 and the federal races are important. But we must always maintain a state and local level focus as a movement. I am glad to connect with so many people. I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed weekend!

Indiana and what comes next.

 Overview: Recently, Trump-endorsed Mike DeWine was in the news as vetoing good conservative legislation. Remember, this is the same guy that in 2020 going into 2021, told families of all ages not to gather in separate households, and wanted misdemeanor charges for people who violated his "COVID curfews". While DeWine is term limited in 2026, there is something going on in Indiana that you all deserve to know about. RINO Governor Eric Holcomb is term limited this year. This is the same guy that worked with Gretchen Whitmer and DeWine on cringe videos during 2020 into 2021. Of course, you also have the dangers of Chicago and Illinois to the West. This is why, in this year of 2024, it is crucial to replace Holcomb with a true conservative. In 2022, Holcomb vetoed HEA 1041, good legislation that protected girls sports. Fortunately, the General Assembly convened and overrode the veto in a similar way to what the Ohio General Assembly will do to the DeWine veto. Holcomb also cause

Local plans and YOU!

One important thing that everyone of you can do is be involved in your local level elections, including the Republican Primaries. However you need to be involved in local "strategic plans" by your local towns, townships, counties, cities and regional planning commissions. The reason this is true is because as people get out of dystopian blue states and/or blue cities, along with purple areas, we need to make sure that the areas we are coming to won't change for the worst at the local levels. I wrote about the reasons why my family and I left Virginia here: https://realjustingeorge.blogspot.com/2023/08/the-principle-of-subsidiarity-getting.html   To be clear, although my family and I have many reasons for not returning to Virginia, we were hoping that Virginia would get a trifecta, however, the reality of the situation is that it wasn't possible. In any case, what I want to write about today is ways that you can get involved to fortify your local area now, regardless o

The wonderful time between summer and fall

For my brother and I, Labor day was traditionally the "last" day of summer, being that we had school the next day. Our area was a wonderful area for our parents to raise us.   After talking with our parents, they would absolutely home school us if we were that age today, we would not be going to public school due to the current state of affairs of the culture and public schools. My point in this blog post, however, is to offer a simple reflection on this time of year between summer and fall. For us, my brother and I are now in college (our current studies are online), so we don't have the "disappointment" of the "last" day of summer being today.  With great appreciation for our parents and our special place we grew up in, we remember having a wonderful above ground pool. Traditionally, we would drain it on the evening in Labor Day. I remember walking to the school bus the next day and seeing the pool draining and looking back at it. For many, this is a
