- So the January 2026 election board meeting is called to order. We'll start with an approval of the minutes
- and Skiddens wants to make a minor adjustment. On the last page, go ahead. Where it currently reads
- Ralph Shaw ask about the noise suppression for voting in the new location. I'm asking that it be amended
- to read Ralph Shaw ask about the noise suppression for voting in the new early voting location.
- Just to insert those two words. I don't have any issues, so insert those two words. In the official
- minutes. OK, then I will move that we adopt the adjusted minutes. Second. Those in favor aye. Opposed.
- All right, then the clerks update. Just a couple of quick updates first.
- We recently attended the Election Administration Conference in Indianapolis. That is always an incredible
- opportunity to not only network and connect with other election administrators throughout the state,
- but also just the incredible knowledge that you get from being at that. I thought it was an excellent
- conference.
- just want to give a shout out to the Indiana election division and all of the partners that they utilize
- to put on such a magnificent conference. They took incredible care of us and I think we all walked away
- knowing more than what we came with. The second thing in my capacity as chair of the legislative committee
- for both the clerks association and the association of Indiana counties.
- legislative we did kick off this week and I already have a bill list in terms of the bills that are
- going to be going before the legislators this session the most of the time there are bills that are brought
- every year they're not likely to get any traction but I do want to put on the radar two house bills
- to follow and I'll try to bring information as often as I can in terms of updates. House Bill 1096 was
- written by Representative Prescott and this one is where Representative Prescott
- wrote a bill that allows an individual to affiliate with a political party when registering to vote
- would require the text would you like to choose your political party if you wish to vote in a primary
- election you must first choose that political party affiliation and may only vote that party's ballot
- in the primary election it is also giving you
- you may vote at the primary election if you are affiliated with the political party not later than 119
- days before the date of the primary election. It's on our radar in terms of what it will mean for the
- clerk's association and we are meeting as a legislative committee to look at just how that impacts the
- responsibilities of the clerk. And then
- just dropped last night. I just got the bill number prior to this meeting. House Bill 1359 authored
- by Chairman Tim Westco. Um, and that bill does contain the legislative ask of the entire clerks association.
- And so, um, I'll be keeping you updated as we go along, but I just wanted to let you know that legislation
- session is often running. Thank you.
- The first one was what they're calling the close primary bill, I assume, correct? Yes. And that it's
- a little controversial in that most people do not want you to know their political affiliation. They
- want to vote for who they want to vote for. And so it has not been the case that you've had to identify
- what political party you're affiliated with.
- We try to make it as discreet as possible, but you could be standing next to your neighbor who happens
- to know your political affiliation. And so if you chose the opposite, your neighbor might call you out
- or something like that. And so this would close that loophole. Wouldn't that cause a problem, though,
- too, since people can register to vote up till the day before early voting starts, and he's putting
- on a 119-day requirement?
- I do not know Representative Prescott. I am letting you know the bill as I understand it. As a legislative
- body, we have discussed it preliminarily. And I will provide updates as I have them. I heard somewhere,
- read this morning also, that there is a bill to do away with straight party voting. So every year there
- is a bill to do away with straight party voting. There is not a palette for that at least
- from my perspective, going up to the state house, a lot of our elderly want to have that straight party.
- It certainly makes it easier for them. It is kind of an issue in terms of the Clerks Association because
- we want to be able to have you vote so that there's no confusion when we meet as an election board body,
- so that there is no confusion as to who you voted for.
- we would like for you to vote for the candidate, not the party. However, from other organizations have
- other priorities. And so there's may not necessarily line up with how we view straight party voting.
- Does that make sense? Yeah, I just read it. I mean, on a personal standpoint, I don't ever vote straight.
- I read every one and say, have you earned my vote or not?
- So whatever, yeah. Optimally that would be the case. I remember a sweet little old man when I went around
- to every one of the assisted living or independent living or health care facilities for the elderly
- when I first became clerk and this sweet little man, this was about the primary and he couldn't vote
- straight ticket and so he said
- You're not giving me my wish. And I said, what is your wish, sir? I want to be able to vote, you know,
- straight. I said, well, I tried to explain, sweetheart. This is when you pick who will be on the ballot.
- And then you're able to vote. OK, but you're not giving me my wish. And so a sweet little man who just
- didn't understand, that bill that you mentioned is typically brought up every session.
- most of the time it is not given a hearing. The thing that I take took from our thing in Indianapolis
- was they've made election law in some cases I think more complicated than it needs to be. I won't disagree
- with you and part of that is when we have our clerk's legislative ask you know
- You want to make it easier for clerks to oversee elections, not harder. But you want to balance it out
- with election law and making sure that you're complying with statute. It's a very fine line. There was
- a lot of stuff there. There's a lot. It's not for the faint of heart. OK. Is there a public comment
- on the clerk's update? Sherrilyn?
- And so, concerning the whole thing about voting, straight ticket and all that, my two cents, I would
- rather invite an opportunity to have more informed voters that don't vote straight, that aren't just
- falling into cults of personality and then going straight ticket. So maybe that would,
- to actually be more informed before they vote and investigate. We're in the age of technology, instantaneous
- communication. We have all the information at our fingertips. Maybe being an informed voter is better,
- but that's just my two cents. Thank you. All right, election central update. Miss Kylie, I think this
- is on you.
- Yes. So I'm going to start off with the voterless maintenance update. We actually had a final delivery
- of voterless maintenance yesterday. So we now have all of them in our office. They are not all processed
- yet. We are still working through a very, very long process on that. We have processed a total of 7,592
- cards so far.
- that is 6,438 have been made inactive, 949 have stayed active, and then we have an additional 207 that
- have been canceled. And then the current number of registered voters at this time is 89,214, with 74,828
- of those being active voters and 14,386 being inactive.
- And then finally, I have a upcoming important dates list. So yesterday was the first day of candidate
- filing. We had a good turnout yesterday. And then we have a county council meeting coming up on January
- 27th. I will be going on next Tuesday to give them a little brief introduction of what we're coming
- and asking for appropriation-wise. And then
- We will be there on the 27th. I will send out a public notice for that. And then all of the information
- that I have that will be submitted as well will go out to the election board for that. And then annual
- CFA for reports are due on January 21st by noon in our office. If you have any questions on those or
- if you need a form, you can stop by our office as well. And then the last day to file for candidacy
- is going to be February 6 by noon.
- I just wanted to say this, Kylie, if I can dovetail just one thing that you said with respect to the
- inactive voters. I don't want anybody who is inactive to be concerned. All that you have to do to become
- active is vote. So if you haven't voted because you only like to vote in particular elections, all you
- have to do is show up this year and vote, and that will automatically take your status from inactive
- to active. Just wanted to say that for the viewing public.
- Of course. All right. New business then. V-Stop. I'm assuming, Kylie, are you doing that as well? Yes.
- So I took part of a program called Seats through V-Stop.
- I think it would be a great experience to do a post-election audit here in Monroe County after the general
- election of twenty twenty six- this will open up some transparency and to allow the-
- trust of the voters in Monroe County with what we do in our office and the. Accuracy of our voting machines
- and I just wanted to bring this up I know that two of our members got to talk with the stop well miss
- Brown has.
- been able to hear over the past couple of years about post-election audits and I think we're in a good
- spot to do one and just wanted to get the discussion rolling now and then get approval from you guys
- to invite VSTOP to do a presentation at the next meeting. VSTOP is an incredible supporter of elections
- in Indiana and the
- I feel that I have warmed up to V-Stop over the years. There was some friction, I think, when they first
- rolled out, but there's some incredible
- members of the VSTOP team that we get to speak with when we attend clerk conferences, election conferences.
- And so I am actually looking forward to the idea of them coming in, guiding us through an audit. And
- so with that, I would make a motion, Mr. Chair, to invite the VSTOP team to the February meeting of
- the Monroe County Election Board. A second. We have a motion and a second. Is there discussion of any type?
- I'd like to point out that VSTOP stands for voting system technical oversight program. That was going
- to be my next comment for those who don't know what it means to find that. So that's helpful. And I
- think when you took me over to chat with them, they said they would pick out three races. Is that correct?
- So it would be you, the election board, that will pick out three races that we specifically focus on.
- And then we would then do a
- It's a portion of the ballot, so they'll do a sampling of it to then get an accuracy. And they really
- strive to hit that 90%. And we'll just continue until we hit that. And then we'll have the results that
- we can send out. It'll also be a press release so that anybody of the public is allowed to be there
- to view this. We'll invite press out and just make sure that it's an event that anybody is able to come
- to and that they feel comfortable coming to to be able to view it.
- All right then. Those in favor of inviting them for February, aye. Aye. Opposed? Motion carries. We'll
- invite them. So Kylie, go ahead and work on inviting them to the February meeting. Let's see. I guess
- any comment on new business, and that's all we had currently.
- then let's move into old business. So Mr. Crider, you are up for election central project update. Good
- afternoon, board members. Richard Crider, Monroe County Building and Fleet Department, tech services.
- Would you mind to pull up the photographs, please? Oh, there they are right there. OK, I brought some
- photos I wanted to share of the progress of the construction over a showers building.
- and they've been busy away. All the demos finished basically except some old internet cable removal
- and that type of thing. They are now framing walls. You can walk in there and you can tell, you can
- basically tell what room is what now. This view right here is from the east side of the building looking
- west and this is basically early voting, this entire space.
- There's a lot of square footage there. Next photo, please. This one is... That's the early voting space.
- That's kind of, not early voting, I'm sorry, Election Central. If you walk through there, it's all laid
- out into the Election Central office spaces. Next photo. That's the ballot room. Next photo, please.
- server room. Is that all the photos? OK, that's the maintenance slash storage room. I believe that's
- the last photo. So anyway, I just kind of want to give you guys a visual of what it looks like over
- there. It's progressing well, and I don't anticipate any issues hitting that deadline date. I do want
- to update you on another matter, though.
- I believe I brought this up at the last meeting, but we had a water heater break in the Johnson building
- and it's created a lot of problems thrown some big curveballs. And basically what's happened is the
- space next to voters registration, which is occupied by
- probation juvenile division was ground zero for the flood and it's a mess. So basically they have five
- staff members, clients all day. It's in disarray down there. And I think what we want to do is we want
- to go ahead and move voters registration over to showers building earlier than what we planned on. We
- have a nice large suite that's located just above election central that'll accommodate
- the staff and their operations sufficiently. And what I wanna do is I wanna relocate them to showers
- and that will open up the current voters registration space for the probation juvenile staff to move
- over, set up operations in there because it's still in pretty good shape. And then we can go through,
- tear out all the, do all the demo, do all the things you have to do to rebuild that office,
- it'll be empty. These guys will be in 203 above election central. We were working on a calendar earlier
- in the week and we think that February 9th is the target date to do that, to make that move. I've been
- working with tech services, we're gonna be able to provide temporary
- technical support up there. Miss Kylie's kind of already been looking at the area, game planning on
- location of staff, that kind of thing. And I'll be working with her this month to make sure we're ready
- to make that move. Do you have any questions? That's the Monday after thing closes, correct? So that'll
- be the Monday after we sat down and looked at
- calendar wise to see where deadlines were. So that'll be that final deadline. And then we will do the
- transition of moving over to showers. Our staff is starting to look at materials and getting stuff boxed
- up, which with the flood, most of it was already boxed up. So we won't have too much to take care of
- packing wise. And I met with Criter this morning with Soft Touch moving and they're looking at potentially having
- that as the moving from the current space to the temporary space. Do we need a motion to do that? We
- don't then. No, for them to move on that date, which is a different date than we talked about. I mean,
- I'm fine with that. We originally were planning on June. I want to make sure we don't we don't do anything
- that somebody comes back says he didn't do it the right way.
- No, this is mainly just an update to get everybody caught up, but also for it to be public. So this
- is the first that public's going to be hearing that we're moving earlier. Plans are to work with.
- criteria on getting signage and stuff set up for the current space for to direct people to the new space
- but also my plan is next Tuesday when I go to County Council making a public statement there as a department
- update and then also going to a commissioner meeting to do a department update there as well just to
- make sure that as many people are notified as possible. I'm just going to take that as information we're
- going to move early that
- yep okay earlier than we planned yeah we're trying to make a little lemonade here where everybody sees
- it anyway so yeah all right thank you very much you're welcome thank you all right CFA for filings okay
- so in your guys's packet you'll find a list that list is the same list that I had presented to you guys
- at the last meeting the ones that are in red still have not filed with us one of
- Uh, one of those individuals did receive the certified letter. The other two have not received the certified
- letter. Um, I'm wanting to get clarification to, and approval to send out a second set of letters, or
- if you would like me to handle this in a different manner. You were to handle it in a different manner.
- What would that be? Thank you. And in the past, um, we have done phone calls and emails directly to them.
- in addition to the second letter, so that there is a formal letter saying this is what we need, but
- then also reaching out to them by phone call and email. I do want to comment that last year, I believe
- it was in February, I sent two certified letters with return receipt requested and I still have not
- gotten the return receipt after almost a year. Yeah. The other thing that I have no issue with in the
- past, I have
- offered if it wasn't able to be delivered. I have hand delivered so that they could have that information
- and I would be willing to do that again. I will say that one of these individuals on here who did receive
- the letter and that we got back the confirmation has came into our office but has not filed
- but they wouldn't have come into the office if they hadn't received the letter so they know they need
- to file. Correct. I move that Kylie do a second letter with follow-up emails and phone calls to these
- to the two individuals that we do not have a confirmation on. I would second that. Are we talking about a
- Another certified letter. Yes, so that there's proof of delivery. Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. I just
- this just. Be funnels me as to why this stuff is such a problem for some people. I mean, yeah. So yes,
- so we have a motion in a second for a second letter. An email if you have an email address and a phone
- call, OK? And then you report back to us in February. How that went, OK?
- works for me. Which with the annual filing deadline coming up for this past year, it could potentially
- be that they have a second or third late filing as well if they do not file on January 21st by noon.
- All right. Those in favor, aye. Aye. Opposed? Okay, motion carries for that. And now the polling location update.
- All right, so then you guys have a third piece of paper in there. That's going to be the largest one
- that has the polling locations on it. The ones that are highlighted in yellow have confirmed with us
- that they would like to be a polling location for 2026. The ones that are in white have not. I would
- like to know how you guys want me to move forward with these. Would you like me to start reaching out
- phone calls versus just the letters that were sent?
- Once we get this back after the county council meeting, I also will be expecting that we try to get
- these approved at the February meeting. I certainly think it would be helpful to follow up with the
- phone calls. And so if you need a motion, that would be my motion. I would think a phone call you would
- a letter gets delivered and it gets laid on someone's desk and nobody gets to it.
- And you need to be able to get this tightened down. So I have a motion and we have second. Second. Okay.
- So those in favor of Kylie doing a phone call to these to those in favor of a phone call from Kylie
- to these locations. Aye. Aye. Opposed. Motion carries. I have some questions about this.
- Sure. Spreadsheet. Sure, go ahead. I appreciate having this in advance and I really, really do. Would
- it be possible to get it for me to have a large map showing all the precincts so that I understand what
- precincts, I mean, it comes up really small on my computer, you know, to see where, you know, who you're
- sending where. So through TSD, could we ask them or somebody to pronounce it?
- one in your office yes I have some in my office I think I have an extra one in my office I'll have to
- look if I do you can I'll send you an email or a text message you can just stop by and pick it up if
- I don't I'll get a hold of GIS to have them print one through TSD okay also somebody called me and talked
- to me about this they said that for a
- Richland 9 precinct, which apparently is a very small, what, 10 registered voters or something like
- that? Yeah. Depending on whether it's just a city of Bloomington election or county-wide election, they
- get moved back and forth between two different polling places. Would it be possible just to always have
- them vote, the people from Richland 9, always have them vote at Highland Park that way?
- that's inside the city of Bloomington. And so they would always, they would always vote at the same
- location. So I will say that we, um, and my office have taken all of the polling locations and all of
- the precincts and have done a complete cleanup of these, um, by statue, all of the polling locations
- that go to the same precinct must touch each other.
- We, when doing some research back, there was a couple of polling locations that had a precinct that
- was not touching the other precincts, so we had cleaned that up. This is the new list. Richland 9, with
- that situation, I will have to look to see where we can do some switching because
- I will say these polling locations are going to have quite a few registered voters at every single one
- of them. Even with the 29 polling locations, we're still looking at some pretty large numbers at Highland
- Park and St. John's. Right. Right. And then also, you've got the cost listed here for what it would
- take to staff these things. Yeah.
- the training costs for these individuals and also the meal stipends. They're just, that's just election
- day and just their per diem for working at that polling location that day. I realized after I printed
- that I printed the ones that had the budget information on them as well. All right.
- Thank you. Anything else from any board member on any? I have several items, if I could. Sure, go ahead.
- So last month, Clerk Brown said she was going to connect with the folks at Heart InterCivic about what
- the timeline was for getting printers. Were you able to connect with them? I was able to connect with
- them. I shared that information with Kylie. There was a piece.
- When I told him what you said versus what Kylie said, there was a piece that you had left out of the
- conversation. So what he had told Kylie was the correct timeline. And they are in the process of getting
- the printers, the scanner certified with the state. And so Kylie's timeline was correct. Of one to two
- months? Yes.
- I took very copious notes, so I wonder what he thinks I left out. You know what? God bless you and him
- with that. I spoke to him. I know what he told me, and that's what we're sticking with, that the election
- supervisor was correct in what she advised in a previous election board meeting. Thank you. OK. I appreciate
- the follow-up. Since election operations or election central will now be where early voting is,
- for the primary, even, in addition to the general. I know in the past, past elections, when early voting
- occurred at election central, the staff staggered their start and stop times to make it easier to have
- the supervision. And I was under the impression, maybe I'm wrong, but then we didn't need quite as much
- in the way of election, some of the supervisory staff. So I was wondering if that would be able
- if we'd be able to do that now, especially given the concern that we have with the budgets. So the early
- voting space and the voter registration space will be in the same building. They will not be in the
- same space like they will be after the primary. So we will still be in two different areas. So voter
- registration will be upstairs where early voting will be downstairs. But in addition to that, even with
- us being in that new space, voter registration is
- very separate from early voting. But you're right on site as opposed to a separate location. Correct.
- There's only one person that goes to early voting from the voter registration staff. I was led to believe
- that in the past, there would be one staff member that would be there at the start, and another one
- would come in like two hours later. We do that. Yeah. We've always done that.
- We have one person that goes down during the day, and then another person that goes down in the afternoon.
- OK. Yep. Great. All right. Just again, looking to try to help save some money here, because that's important
- for all of us. I mean, we also have to remember that the voter registration staff only has five individuals,
- two part-time, two full-time, and myself. And that's already very short once we get into the election.
- So with us losing one individual to be at early voting, we're still
- I mean, we're there as long as we have to be there. And as soon as we can get out of there, we're out
- of there. The clerk alluded to the training that we all went to, which I learned a lot, really learned
- a lot at the Administrators Conference. One of the things we heard was about doing tabletop exercises
- to plan for disasters. Will Mr. Shields and I be allowed to or be invited to participate in those?
- So I know last year, the Secretary of State and Indiana Homeland Security actually hosted in 2026.
- I mean, 2024, they hosted some roundtable discussions and they invited the election board and clerk
- and voter registration staff to go to those. I don't know if they have any plans for any in 2026.
- I have not been made aware of tabletop exercises for 2026. It certainly would not surprise me that was
- a successful, excuse me, a successful event you and I attended as well as the emergency management director.
- And it turned out that one of those tabletop exercises really could have mirrored what happened with
- the cybersecurity breach and everything. So we got some really good,
- information for that. Information for that and guidance for that. So I would certainly bring back to
- the board's attention should I hear that the Secretary of State is hosting a tabletop exercise, but
- I am not aware of one at this time. Do we have our own within the county for things? Because another
- thing that I heard about that had an impact on me was that we have to do planning for disasters, whether
- it's human
- paused or environmental, and that we have to have a way to both ensure that staff is safe and can be
- evacuated, but also we have to plan for voters getting ballots to where they need to be and things like
- that. So, and it was my understanding that we would be involved in some of that, that we have to be
- ready for it.
- myself, Molly and Jamie last year put together an emergency plan. And that's what we use and distribute
- to the poll workers. It's a, I want to say it's a front and back piece of paper that is just like detailed
- information of in case of this type of an emergency, these are the procedures you need to take 2024,
- sorry, not 2025. No, I know. Yeah. Yeah. But, but still that,
- doesn't tell me how we accommodate voters to ensure that we get ballots to where moved, that people
- know where they can go vote if there's a polling place that's shut down. I think Molly's looking for
- it. But I would say probably it would be us giving that document that was created during 2024 to the election
- and then if there was anything that you guys wanted to discuss and look over, then I would say it'd
- probably be something we add to an agenda if there's any amendments that need to be made. Yeah, I'm
- with you on the emergency stuff that we talked about up there. So, but if you have something you've
- done in the past, I don't see any reason to reinvent that. If that was set up and that would take care of,
- as she said, getting ballast to people where they need to. Dig that one up and let us look at it. Yeah,
- because I remember in it we had created a plan if there was a natural disaster such as a tornado, where
- a backup location would be. We had talked about talking to the public libraries here in Monroe County
- and seeing if any of them would be OK with us using them as an emergency location, since most of those
- are pretty well-known locations.
- We also had talked about here at the courthouse, but I don't know how far that conversation went for
- turning this into a satellite location on election day in the case of an emergency. It did not go far.
- Perhaps they would be willing to revisit that. It did not go far at the time. In my mind, and I know
- that it's still a hot button issue here, but in planning for
- Disasters, I continue to believe that vote centers would help if there were any kind of disaster that
- had to be addressed because you don't have to move ballots. People can quickly find out where all the
- other vote centers in the county are to get to. And so you're not having to worry about whether people
- who attempted to vote actually got that right. And so to me, that's another argument for having vote centers.
- Here's the truth. We are facing elections where we will not have voting centers in 2026. If you want
- to talk about planning for emergencies and disasters, we need to plan for the locations that we have
- and the precincts that we have. We do not have vote centers. I realize that I'm saying that I believe
- that this is another argument for having vote centers in Monroe County because it would be a way to ensure or
- be more assured that voters who wish to vote had that chance to do it in the event of a disaster. I
- will say our plan is very thorough on that with creating a satellite location in the event of emergency.
- It's easily set up. Bob White and his team is excellent at taking care of situations in very time, small
- time crunches. And we're very lucky to have him and his team. They've done excellent work.
- with those satellite locations. We don't have to worry about transporting the ballots anywhere. We just
- set up like we are at election day. We just take the equipment to whatever the location is going to
- be. We get a hold of Jamie. She sends out a text message on the Monroe County text alerts. And then
- we would then contact TSD to have them post stuff on the website. And then if they're calling our offices,
- it's easy for us to say, OK, yes, this location
- is now being relocated to this location, and it will be a satellite location where they can easily get
- their ballot printed and casted there at that moment. One of the other things that happened
- at the administrators training was they give out awards. They give out an election board member of the year.
- which went to Yvette, I think it was Runkle from Huntington County. And what they flashed up on this
- screen is that this is given to the election board members whose service embodies bipartisan cooperation
- in the administration of the election process and whose achievement is to represent one political party
- while serving all county voters. And so again, for me, this would be
- another reason to work together on getting vote centers. Thank you. Thank you. General public comment.
- I just want to public comment about everything that you're talking about. I have one for the other thing,
- but again, Cheryl Langdon, I totally understand what you're saying about how vote centers would
- I get that. I totally get that. I worked with microwave systems, communication systems concerning the
- satellite and all of that. So I understand how all of that can work. But again, people are, it's hard
- to direct people. It's hard to, in an emergency situation, people are in panic. They're freaking out.
- So I get the boat centers being kind of a,
- a good solid foundation that prevents all the complicated things that can happen. Technology, how many
- times has it screwed up? So it can go both ways, paradoxically, I get it. So she's right and he's right
- and I get it. And everyone in this room is probably right in some way, shape or form in every scenario.
- So I agree, I mean, vote centers,
- might actually help in situations like that. But it's not perfect, so that was my little two cents.
- So was that for your general comment or was that? That was for the last thing, so general comment.
- Go ahead. I appreciate you letting me speak on that.
- Again, Cheryl Langdon. So every single month I show up to talk about the unmitigated corruption of the
- crime organization called the Democratic Party. The level of outrageous lies, hypocrisy, and open corruption
- by the private political organization is traitorous and unforgivable.
- Democrat states like Minnesota, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, California, and so on have demonstrated that
- their elected Democrat leaders will turn a blind eye to their own corruption,
- while they push good citizens into states like Indiana as tax refugees seeking shelter from the Democratic
- Party's policies, as their corrupt leadership allowed their legal citizens to be robbed at knife point
- in public spaces by violent criminals, and while they sleep in their beds, as they are put under a microscope
- by the IRS concerning their own personal spending. Are you kidding me?
- A friend of mine in California who voted for Trump asked for other people's opinion about Trump's name
- on the Kennedy Center. I gave mine as a person who did not vote for Trump in 2024. I said a name on
- a building doesn't mean anything to me. It is temporary. It's as temporary as the next dark turd that
- sits in my colon.
- The Kennedy family turned on RFK jr. And the only people who give a crap about the timing of the name
- change on that building are people who are million stable and who have committed worst crimes against
- me and my nation They committed treason over and over and they won't stop until the United States is
- destroyed They can't judge Trump. They have no moral high ground
- I wouldn't care if he hired 100 bulldozers and piled down every single monument in D.C., knocked the
- Statue of Liberty into the Hudson, and dumped 10,000 tons of horse manure into the reflecting pool in
- front of the Lincoln Memorial. Know why? Most Americans will never get the opportunity to ever visit
- those locations. Know why?
- because hardworking Americans are too busy being the slaves for entitled, rich, corrupt politicians
- and their immediate circle of friends who have benefited from the lives of those struggling, hardworking
- Americans. And that includes many in this very room and those listening to this meeting. So those things,
- none of them matter.
- They are as useless as the decaying ruins of the Roman Empire, all just tourist attractions for those
- who manage to crawl out of their small lives to reach beyond themselves despite the dirty rotten privilege
- elected dirtbags. There, my opinion. Screw every Democrat who believes their lives are any more important
- than any other, especially those of the MAGA Americans.
- It doesn't matter in the end. I say punch them all in the face, Mr. President. Traders deserve no quarter.
- Somalis stealing $9 billion. Crickets from the Democrats. But me getting a bank deposit of $600 or more
- under Biden's Democrat regime in 2021. Thank you, ma'am. Thank you. I just got one sentence. Report
- it immediately or pay a penalty. That's what I heard. So drain the swamp. Thank you.
- Motion to adjourn. Seconded. Those in favor, aye. Aye. Opposed? Thank you. This meeting is adjourned.
- We will meet again on February 9th at 1.30. Thank you.
