💪 Let’s flex on them. 💪

They’re really, truly afraid of you and me. Let’s flex on them. 💪 We’re gearing up for a fight, John.  As we speak, power-hungry politicians and their special interest friends are working to dismantle much of our movement’s success. In state legislatures and in courtrooms – soon e…

John vs. corrupt politicians & special interests

When you were a kid and you built something you were really proud of – like out of blocks or popsicle sticks – did you ever have some other kid come along and knock it all down? John – Remember Lincoln Logs? (No don’t leave, I promise this isn’t about to be an extended Abraham Li…

Bullies? Ewww.

So when we tell you that President Biden has a chance to use his bully pulpit during the State of the Union, we're really saying he's got everyone's attention and he better use it to take a stand against corruption. John —   A bully pulpit.  That turn of phrase was coined by Pre…

This is a BFD

Even the Founding Fathers knew that this speech is — to borrow a phrase from our current President — a BFD. Hey John – Thomas Jefferson had stage fright. Now that I have your attention, let’s talk about the State of the Union address. Did you know that for 112 years the State of …
