Dec.21 News Letter
Happy Saturday! We’ll be live tonight at the normal time (7:30 PM Central). Despite the hiccup last week (You-Tube shut down our stream because I was playing “Silver and Gold” by Burl Ives during the intro). Folks, please take note of stuff like this because You Tube has been messing with our channels dating back to “Truth Money and Freedom” in 2017. If we have a scheduled stream but for some reason, the stream is not working on You Tube, head over to Rumble or Twitter (X).
Last week, we started meeting for the stream in Signal as opposed to Guilded. I hate moving things around as much as anyone else but it had to be done. There are limitations on Signal but for the most part, it seems to work OK and the broadcast software (Prism) seems to be OK with it. We’ll be live on Twitter (X), Rumble, Odysee and hopefully You Tube.
Our first scheduled Knock and Shock campaign will be on January 15, 2025. We generally meet in the capital at 9:00AM although it’s an all-day event and people come and go as their schedule allows. We’re generally wrapping up around 5:00PM. Although we have not as yet selected bills to support as an organization, the mission is to support the bills we have selected by passing out flyers, and talking to Senators and Representatives about these bills AND get co-sponsors for the bills we support. This is actually very important. By actually showing up, speaking to our elected officials, we actually start the process of helping setup priorities for the legislature. Phone calls and e-mails help but nothing replaces the personal touch of a visit to the capital. If your Representative and/or your Senator do not know your name, this is actually your fault, not theirs. Make sure you get to know your representation and they get to know you. Knock and Shock is the ideal way to meet them to show your level of involvement in the legislative process if you haven’t already and speak with them, especially if you are travelling the halls supporting legislation in a group of 30+ people. This leave an impression, trust me. Developing relationships in Jefferson City is very important and cannot be understated.
Home base for the January 15 Knock and Shock will be Senator Mike Moon’s office. Mike Moon is the sponsor of SB25, the Constitutional Money Act. Senator Moon’s office is on the 2nd floor of the capital, Room 220. Home base is where we meet, where we organize, where we share intel we receive during the day and where we form strategies if needed. It’s also where we store lunch boxes and jackets for the day, where conceal carry permit holders can leave our personal carry weapons (some parts of the capital do not allow for conceal carry). *Note, Constitutional Carry is not allowed in the Capital. I have spoken with both Mike and his LA (Legislative Assistant) Luke, and Mike Moon would love to have as many co-sponsors as we can get for him on this legislation. Although Senate bills usually do not get this kind of love, I think this is the PERFECT bill to get 6+ Senate co-sponsors on and it’s worth the time and effort. This will be part of the mission on January 15 if SB25 is selected for support by the group. Let’s call our Senators in advance and ask them to co-sponsor Mike Moon’s SB25!
January 8th is also a big day at the capital. A rally has been scheduled and a lot of grassroots have signed on. On January 8th, all folks elected in November will be sworn in. This is not a good day for Knock and Shock but still is an opportunity to support the legislators. I’ll have more info for this during the live stream tonight.
Justin Sparks spoke in Nixa Missouri on the 19th of December. I was there for the event and will give everyone a sitrep (Situation Report) tonight.
On the last live stream (12-14-24) I said we would be streaming tonight (12-21-24) and on the 28th. I want everyone to know I am not certain we can stream on the 28th at this time. I will be travelling this coming up week (Minnesota again) and I can’t really guarantee anything under those circumstances. Best advice is to check for an e-mail on Saturday morning/afternoon. If I can’t go live, I usually can’t (or don’t) send an e-mail OR send an email that explains why we can’t go live (if I have access from where I am at). We’ll come up with a better system in time.
Our friend, John Williams continues to produce his live stream every Friday night. You can see his work on You Tube or on Rumble.
Sam Britton with Missouri Liberty Radio is live with his signature program “Off the Cuff” every Sunday from 6:00PM to 9:00PM Central.
Representative Bill Hardwick’s Constitutional Money Act (HB433) has caught the attention of our friends at the Tenth Amendment Center. Representative Michael Davis has also filed his version of the Constitutional Money Act (HB630)! You can read the blog entry here.
Representative Hardwick’s HB433 has 3 co-sponsors as of today (12-21-24). Let’s call/email our reps and ask them to co-sponsor HB433. Here is the updated Missouri House Roster. If you have a new Representative who was just elected, their phone number and email address will be posted soon.
This email is VERY late, and I’ve run out of time, so I’ll end it there. I hope to see you all tonight on the stream.
May God bless us all with good health and with wisdom and courage.
Yours for liberty,
