Sayd Hussain Runs for House of Representatives Q.) Why do you want to be a State Representative?

A.) I want to be your next state representative because I will be a fighter for Senior Citizens, HOA/Condo Association Transparency, and an advocate against Antisemitism. The district needs new leadership to truly carry these issues forward and I am the best candidate for this. I’m young, energetic, and an oldy at heart, which is perfect for a district with the average age being 70. I want senior citizens to see a version of themselves in me when they were 22 and I hope to communicate this going into the election. I want to walk their shoes, their journey, and take it to Tallahassee.

Q.) What makes you different from other candidates?

A.) I’m not a politician, I do not come from a wealthy political family or anything political at all. I’m the great-grandson of indentured servants forcibly taken from India to work sugarcane farms in Guyana, South America. Just like in Jewish History, I understand the feeling of our ancestry being forcibly taken from the homeland and I hope to resonate these struggles with the voters.

Q.) Can you tell us anything about the other candidates in your district?

A.) My opponent overcome great struggles in her life and I absolutely sympathize with her for overcoming those struggles to become a state representative. It is a great accomplishment and I hope to accomplish the same as well. However, my opponent comes from a wealthy political family and is supported by strong special interests. I will challenge the establishment and bring change to our community. It is the only way in order to bring representation back to District 91: Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach.

Q.) What is your affiliation with the Republican Party?

A.) Being as young as 22 and voting for the first time in the 2016 election, I do not have many affiliations with the Republican Party since I am starting out now. I do have a great relationship with Republican Chairman of Palm Beach County, Michael Barnett. He had faith in me and my campaign, always saying I’m more mature than most candidates he ever supported. He believes in me and I hope to inspire.

Q.) Anything additional you'd care to add?

A.) Having interned in Washington, D.C., at a nonprofit, an embassy, and an agency in the White House administration, I have learned the importance of the law. Although I grew up in South Florida and attended one of the most diverse schools in the country, prejudice and injustice always seemed to be existent, particularly for someone with an ethnic name and appearance.

Rather than being resentful, the experience inspired me to run for office and advocate for others who have suffered injustices.

My first Washington D.C. internship was at the nonprofit Ecological Society of America, a professional organization of scientists who advocate for environmental preservation. It was my utmost honor to complete my second internship experience at the Council on Environmental Quality, a division within the Executive Office of the President at the White House. I helped the administration streamline the environmental review process for major infrastructure projects. Subsequently, and with this experience under my belt, I contacted the Guyana Ambassador, the Honorable Dr. Riyad Insanally, who gave me the opportunity to conduct a research project for Guyana’s President, David Ganger, to move the country toward a green economy. While there, I prepared a successful presentation with the ambassador for funding from the World Wildlife Fund, the Andes Foundation, and the Smithsonian Institute. Thus, I was able to participate with the many sides involved in environmental policy, which included The White House, a foreign government, and a nonprofit organization.

Jessi Melton - Taking Back Congress Florida's District 22 Can you share a little about your background and how you got started?

Over the past several years, I've built a wireless development company that has, under the current administration's economy, cultivated enough success that I have the capacity to run for office. Last year, I decided it was time to use my skills to serve my country. I strongly considered joining the military, but when I considered what my country needed most, it was clear that my skill set was needed in Congress. I've built a business in a tough industry from the ground up.

I built my business on the reputation of getting things done that other firms can't or wont, and I want the very best for my country and its people. The loudest sitting members of Congress want the exact opposite, destruction and death to the American Dream. And they are fighters. They are loud. Well, I fight too. Hard. It's in my blood. So here I am. No more standing by and idly watching, it's time to roll up my sleeves and get in the game.

Which Republican or conservative thinkers inspire you both past and present?

I'm a big Winston Churchill fan. He was a fighter. He had the gift of perceiving threats before they progressed, and the grit to stand against the establishment and the naysayers. A favorite quote of his wellarticulates today's political landscape: "If you're not a liberal by the time you're 20, you don't have a heart. If you aren't conservative by the time you're 40, you don't have a brain." I think a lot of liberal voters have good intentions, they just haven't quite learned how to get there. There are no shortcuts to freedom or prosperity.

Both come at a cost. Freedom isn't "free."

What do you see as the single most important thing you can help with?

Balancing the budget. Trimming the fat. Streamlining. Reducing overhead. Reminding Congress who they work for and what their role is, which is ONLY to protect our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Their role is NOT to give hand outs, only a hand up. A large part of my skill set is in my ability to influence other members of Congress to get on board and get this done.

How can we vote for you and are districts pertinent?

Greetings My Fellow Broward Republicans.I'm pleased to announce that yesterday I filed the necessary paper work to run for State Committeeman from Broward County.I am NOT running against anyone! I am running FOR the Republicans of Broward County! We need a Constituionalist, a TRUE "TRUMPLICAN" and , an avid Governor DeSantis supporter who will work to represent ALL Broward Country REPUBLICANS.I have been "boots on the ground" supporting our Republican Party for a very long time by sign waiving at Freedom Corner,phone banking, going door to door, doing live pod cast and being the President of Broward Log Cabin Republicans.

The blood sweat and tears I do willingly in promoting and supporting the Republican platform and all Republican candidates. This was quite evident when electing both President Trump and Governor DeSantis respectfully.In the 67 counties in our great state of Florida, Broward county ranks....LAST.... yes 67 out of 67 in Republican voter registration!! DISGUS-STING to say the least. .We've had enough of the Pelosi type leadership in Broward county. There is NO infighting, HOWEVER there is a HUGE infiltration if TESSIORINOBUSHLICANNS!! The ongoing attacks against fellow Republicans, Republican Businesses, Candidates, and lost documents must stop NOW!! The previous board saw an increase of over 10,000 new Broward Republican voters while the current board has seen a DECREASE of over 4700+ during their tenure. THIS IS NOT GREAT LEADERSHIP! The current leadership "claims" to have raised over $500,000.00. Where is that money and where has it gone? NONE HAS GONE TO ANY BROWARD REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES RUNNING FOR ANY OFFICE.... Local, State, or Federal!!! Where's the money and accountability?I will reach out to Republican candidates and support them as much as possible in their bids to win a Broward County elections as Republicans. I will NOT tell them " the only way to win a Broward County election is to switch your Republican Registration to DEMOCRAT!"Patriot's....... this is the MOST important election of our life and our country's future depends on reelecting President Trump.Our current leadership both Broward and Republican Party of Florida do not seem NOT to understand this. They OPENLY ARE GOING AGAINST President Trump by SUPPORTING MAIL IN BALLOTS. On April 30, 2020 President Trump stated ; "I have concerns with the integrity of mail in ballots!" And the current leadership both Broward and State Leadership choose to ignore this!

Whereas I am totally against mail in ballots and totally support voter ID and legitimate voters to mail in or vote absentee. PERIOD!The time has come to END THE SHENANIGANS of the current non leadership of Broward County and elect those candidates who are TRUE AND LOYAL to the Republican Party- Our President and Governor!!!

Rep Kevin Brady Remembering Sam Johnson - Rest in Peace!

Washington, D.C. – The top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee Kevin Brady (R-TX) released the following statement upon the announcement of the passing of Sam Johnson, former Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee:“From the skies over North Korea to the infamous ‘Hanoi Hilton’ to the Halls of Congress, America has known few patriots as great as Sam Johnson. A lifelong Texan and a dear friend, Sam was a true American hero. I was blessed to sit next to him for many years on the Ways and Means Committee and, as chairman, I successfully urged the House to name the Sam Johnson Room in the Rayburn House Office Building in his honor. “His legislative achievements are nothing short of extraordinary. He helped strengthen Social Security, made health care work better for our nation’s veterans; he sought to improve our health care system at every turn, and he was part of a generational rewrite of our nation’s tax code. “Cathy and I send our prayers to Sam’s children, grandchildren and family. Our state and nation mourn this hero, but we will never forget his legacy. As Saint Clare reminds us: ‘Go forth in peace, for you have followed the good road. Go forth without fear; for He that created you has sanctified you, has always protected you.’” Rep. Sam Johnson (R-TX), was born in San Antonio, Texas, on October 11, 1930.

Johnson spent his life in public service – beginning with his 29-year career in the U.S. Air Force. As director of the Air Force Fighter Weapons School, Johnson flew combat missions in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars. During his second tour in Vietnam, he was shot down and endured seven years as a prisoner of war in Hanoi Hilton.Following his years as a POW, in 1973, Johnson returned home to Texas to his wife – and high school sweetheart – the late Shirley Melton, whom he credits as the “real hero.” He established a home-building business in Dallas and served in the Texas State Legislature. In 1991, Johnson was first elected to the U.S. House of Representatives to represent North Texas. In 1995, Johnson was recommended by then-Ways and Means Chairman Bill Archer (R-TX) to serve on the Committee.Becoming Chairman of the Subcommittee on Social Security in 2011, Chairman Johnson passed multiple pieces of legislation to strengthen Social Security and improve the agency’s service to the American people. In 2016, his service to the Committee on Ways and Means, the House of Representatives, and the U.S. Air Force, was recognized when a hearing room in the Rayburn House Office Building was formally named the “Sam Johnson Room,” in an event attended by House Speaker Paul Ryan, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and Ways and Means Chairman Kevin Brady, among other distinguished guests.On the wall behind the dais is a handwritten note from Sam, stating “Freedom has a taste to those who fight and almost die that the protected will never know,” which a fellow POW etched into the wall in a POW cell. His service to both our Country and the House of Representatives has earned him wide praise from his colleagues – including being recognized in 2009 as the “most admired” Republican Member of the House.

The Trump Towel to the Rescue!

By Jill Cueni-Cohen In the midst of the Covid-19 crisis, Trump rallies have been postponed. But thanks to Michelle Terris and Diane Ventura, you can still show your support for President Trump’s re-election by waving a bright red Trump Towel from the window of your house or car. You can even wrap yourself in a beach-sized Trump Towel as you take a walk around your neighborhood. It’s all for a good cause.

According to Terris, a Pittsburgh native now living in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the Trump Towel is her way of helping out Gold Star families. “Last September, I had this vision of a sea of red Trump Towels, all waving at Trump’s rallies in a show of support,” she recalls.

Terris looked for a manufacturer to partner with and was introduced to Ventura--also a native Pittsburgher. In the next moment, the Trump Towel was born. Proceeds from the sale of the towels are donated to deserving individuals and organizations.

“It was beshert,” Terris says, using a Jewish term, which means “pre-ordained” or “meant to be”.

She is also the founder of the #JEXIT Movement (Jexitusa.org), in which Liberal Jews are “educated to leave the Marxist jihadi Democrat party, whose policies are radical leftist ideologies,” according to the organization’s mission statement.

The concept of waving a brightly-colored towel was first invented by Pittsburgh sportscaster Myron Cope. Best known for being "the voice of the Pittsburgh Steelers” for 35 years, the color commentator passed away in 2008, but his legacy lives on through The Terrible Towel. Anyone who’s ever watched a Steelers football game is familiar with the black and gold kitchen-sized towels being waved by the team’s fans.

In 1996, Cope handed The Terrible Towel’s ownership documents over to Allegheny Valley School for the mentally retarded, which now receives all the royalties from the ever-popular towels. His son Danny has lived at Allegheny Valley School since 1982.

“The Terrible Towel was my inspiration,” says Terris, adding that using it as a way to raise money for Gold Star families and others is in line with Myron Cope’s act of generosity. “I think he would approve, because this is also a charitable item.”

Their website, www.TheTrumpTowel.com, was launched by Ivanka Trump’s Women’s Global Development and Prosperity Initiative, (whitehouse.gov/wgdp) in September of 2019. Since then, they’ve donated $5000 to five families.

“A lot of people have bought the towels, and they love them,” says Terris, noting that they were getting very popular at rallies and have been featured in “Operation Towel Drops” throughout the country. Even President Trump has taken notice of the towels and has been photographed with one on his golf bag. “We’re hoping to get back to business soon with the rallies, but outside of the rallies, they’re still a lot of fun. The Trump Towel is multifunctional, because it can be used to shield you from the sun, as well as for flag drops and flag waving.”

The Trump Towel Team was a Participating Sponsor of the CPAC Convention in February and donated $1000 to Advocates For Illegal Alien Crime (AVIAC), honoring Angel Mom Sabine Durden with a check. The organization was created by the parents and siblings who have suffered the loss of a loved one to illegal alien crime.

The Trump Towel made its public debut at President Trump’s Sunrise, Florida rally in November 2019. “We have sinced branched out to beach towels, and now have a golf towel,” says Terris.

“It’s been an exciting way to show our support through our faith, flag and freedom.”

Venezuelan Cocaine - Arrests are Happening!

The coronavirus pandemic is the backdrop for the arrests of well-known CRIMINALS like Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro!

Today the U.S. Justice Department announced that Maduro and several other government officials have been charged with “turning Venezuela into a narco-state by collaborating with a leftist Colombian guerrilla group that exported tons of cocaine to the United States,” according to the Miami Herald.

TONS OF COCAINE!

“Recent data from the U.S. interagency Consolidated Counterdrug Database (CCDB) indicates that 210 metric tons of cocaine passed through Venezuela in 2018. By comparison, the State Department reports that over six times as much cocaine (1,400 metric tons) passed through Guatemala the same year.”

Their stated goal was to “flood the United States with cocaine.“

Emilio Estevez, Demi Moore, Rob Lowe, Jodie Foster, Drew Barrymore… they all did drugs, and they all got busted. But look at them today—it didn’t really hurt their careers, did it?

As a kid growing up in the 80s, you were practically expected to do drugs. Movies and television glorified drug dealers and made it look fun to snort the white stuff up your nose.
