News, Opinions and a Few Giggles, too!       DEFENDING KANSAS SAVING AMERICA   DONATE VOLUNTEER   America’s Best Days are Still Before Us My fellow Kansans, This election is about more than just choosing a representative—it’s about the direction of our country. Many times before, when our country has been at a critical crossroads, I’ve been honored to step forward and serve — now I’m doing it again. Whether as a cancer doctor, a Lt. Colonel in the Air Force, or as a legal immigrant who has experienced the American Dream firsthand, I am honored to have given back to the state and country I love. And through it, I’ve become convinced that if we make the right choices, our brightest days are ahead of us. But our current path, under the leadership of Sharice Davids and her unwavering support for the Biden-Harris agenda, has led us astray. Their policies have brought us record inflation, open borders, and a ballooning national debt that threatens the future of our children. As your congressman, I will fight for policies that lift up every Kansan. I will work to secure our borders, bring down the cost of living, and ensure that our government lives within its means, just as families across Kansas do every day. My background in medicine and military service has taught me that with the right leadership, there’s no challenge too great for us to overcome. I know many of you wonder, "Can we win?" Yes, we can. But it won’t be easy, and we can’t rely on someone else to do the work for us. Sharice Davids has a lot more money, and is already lying about me in mail and television ads across the district. But if we double our efforts and commit to doing more—knocking on more doors, making more calls, spreading our message farther—we will succeed. Together, we have the power to turn the tide. But I can’t do it alone. It will take all of us working together to make this vision a reality. Whether you can chip in a few dollars or volunteer a few hours of your time, your support is crucial. Every contribution, every hour of service, brings us one step closer to winning this fight and securing a brighter future for Kansas. I ask for your support, your prayers, and your vote as we work together to renew the promise of America. Let’s make sure that our best days truly are yet to come. ~ Dr. Prasanth Reddy   Mike Brown, Chairman Kansas Republican Party Mike Brown has served as the Chairman of the Kansas Republican Party since February 2023. A 6th generation Kansan, Mike is a General Contractor in the Kansas City area and has been involved in Kansas Republican Party politics for nearly three decades. Mike and his wife, Kristi, have five grown children and live in Overland Park.     21,000,0000 Illegals in USA Kamala Harris Fully Responsible   The immigration crisis in the U.S. is now beyond what anyone anticipated. A new study from Yale and MIT estimates that the number of undocumented immigrants could be as high as 29.1 million, more than double previous estimates. This catastrophe has been worsened under the leadership of Border Czar Kamala Harris. The once-secure borders under President Trump have now become wide open, allowing an influx of immigrants from all over the world. As a result, crime has surged, communities are less safe, and American jobs are increasingly filled by undocumented workers. The policies that kept America secure under President Trump have been dismantled. Yet, Harris has the audacity to blame him for the mess she created. It's not just an insult to Americans—it’s a threat to national security. Our immigration system, once functional, is now in tatters, and those responsible are pointing fingers rather than taking accountability. But there is hope. On November 5, 2024, we have the chance to correct this disastrous course. A vote for Trump is a vote for safety, security, and the restoration of effective immigration policies. The stakes are high, and the choice is clear. Vote Trump Save America     Kansas Democrat Boyda Faces FEC Investigation: What is Nancy Hiding? On Thursday, September 19, 2024, Mike Brown, Chairman of the Kansas Republican Party, filed a series of complaints with the Federal Election Commission regarding the Boyda For Congress campaign. The violations of FEC rules related to the required “paid for by” disclaimer, which explains who is financially responsible for campaign-related marketing tools. Reportedly, “thousands” of large Boyda highway and yard signs were already printed and distributed. All of these signs were missing the required “paid for by” block, creating doubt about Boyda’s leadership skills and casting long shadows over the Boyda campaign and restricting transparency in elections and campaign finance process. These sketchy tactics and reckless omissions give rise to serious concerns about “Dark Money” sources. They have tarnished the image and reputation of the hard work done by the FEC and other reputable campaigns in the name of integrity and transparency. Additionally, the campaign website was missing the legally required disclosure. This is another FEC violation. These obvious and rudimentary mistakes point to a lack of control and discipline by Boyda over her campaign and her campaign team. It also points out her inability to lead, even on the most basic of objectives, and raises the important question: who is paying for these signs and website and what is Boyda hiding? A response from the FEC is expected next week. In the meantime, chaos has ensued inside the Boyda campaign as fingerpointing, blame, and accusations quickly flared. Now, with signs out across the district spanning from the Nebraska state line on the North to the Oklahoma state line on the South, expensive and cumbersome stickers must be purchased, shipped, and installed on every sign. Each sign without the appropriate disclosure is a single violation of FEC campaign finance laws. Time is of the essence. Within minutes of the FEC complaint filing, Boyda’s campaign website was updated with a disclosure, serving as an admission of guilt. The FEC complaint (see below) was filed by Mike Brown personally.     State Fair Huge Success Thank You to Our KSGOP Volunteers The Kansas Republican Party booth at the Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson over the last couple of weeks has been a huge success! The unifying message of “smaller government, less taxes, and more freedom” was promoted nonstop by volunteers who helped to coordinate and staff the booth, including the KSGOP’s very own Vice Chair, Cheryl Reynolds, KSGOP Secretary, Tess Anderson, KSGOP Treasurer, Alan Townsend, and our KSGOP Office Manager, Marty Bohannon - along with a cast of smiling thousands! Their efforts have yielded new voters, new volunteers, new ideas, and new energy into the KSGOP. Thank You!     Covert Ops, Misdirection, and Exploding Pagers, Oh My! As Hezbollah Bleeds the World Cheers A new weapon was deployed in Beirut's shadowy corridors, board rooms, and bunkers. Massad, woth a long-known and fiery reputation for clandestine operations, had developed a covert communication system: bombs disguised as pager devices. But these pagers were designed to explode on command. The Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, created a false-front “business” which manufactured a very deadly technology. Their operatives worked swiftly, intercepting signals and tracing the locations of these explosive pagers. Each beep, each vibration, was a harbinger of destruction waiting to strike unsuspecting enemies. The pagers, planted strategically across various regions and designed to be triggered remotely, were read to wreak havoc on Hezbollah's operatives. And Mossad was patient and quietly watching Hezbollah distribute the pagers while thinking they were holding the world hostage with unmitigated barbaric terroristic acts. This brilliant stroke of misdirection turned the tables in Israel’s favor and Mossad triggered a vast series of coordinated explosions. The world watched in amazement as Hezbollah's operatives attempted to carry out their missions, not knowing every step was being tracked through their own devices. Those pagers and two-way radios were unknowingly carried into safehouses, cars, offices, grocery stores, and secret meeting locations, exposing their patterns and secret networks. The resulting chaos within the organization was predictable and telling. In the streets of Beirut and beyond, whispers spread of Hezbollah bleeding—its operatives falling one by one, taken down by their tools of destruction. With at least 9 dead and 2,800 injured, panic gripped the organization. The world watched as the once-powerful militant group staggered, its grip on the region weakening. With every explosion, the world cheered knowing terrorism took another blow. Hezbollah, stunned by their own decisions, faced the consequences of Mossad’s clandestine prowess. And in the shadows, Mossad’s agents moved on to their next operation, knowing they had turned the tide in a battle fought not with armies, but with technology, misdirection, and precision. Now Hezbollah, Iran, and other nation-state sponsors of terrorism have been served notice, loud and clear - and with a bang.     Suspicious Mailers Show Up in Kansas Mail Boxes Suspicious and curious fundraising solicitation mailings continue to appeared in Kansas mailboxes.

She must be held accountable at the polls. #NeverForget               The recent maneuver by the Democrats to discard Joe Biden in favor of Kamala Harris epitomizes the party's chaotic descent into totalitarianism. This iron-fisted move reveals a disturbing disregard for democratic principles, showcasing a leadership willing to trample over the will of the people to cement its own power. The rank and file’s acquiescence to this blatant power grab is equally alarming, signaling a blind allegiance over critical thinking. By sidelining Biden, who was elected by the public in primary and caucus elections across the nation earlier this year, the Democrats have effectively thrown democracy out the window. This orchestrated switch not only undermines the voters' choice but also sets a dangerous precedent for future political machinations. The party's actions suggest a preference for control and conformity over genuine democratic engagement, raising serious questions about the true nature of their commitment to the democratic process. All of which raise two excellent questions: Who is the President of the United States right now? And if Biden can't run for office now, how can he run the country?
