| Collapse all
I am a Registered Nurse of 22 years, a single mom of 2 adult children. I never really paid a lot of attention to politics and I put a lot of trust into those I elected into office. Well, over the last several years information has been surfacing regarding corruption in our government, Those who we have elected have failed us. Many like myself are stepping up to take back our country and protect our rights and freedoms that so many have fought and died for. My goal is to defend and uphold the Constitution, fight like hell to preserve our rights and freedoms.
- Government Overreach- the government works for us. We tell them what to do, not the other way around.
- Mask Mandates, Lockdowns, Vaccine Mandates- We need to stop with all these ridiculous mandates and bring back our economy. Stop hurting the working class by firing them for not taking the vaccines, stop inflation. Wages need to reflect the cost of living for all.
- Education- Stop Critical race theory, teach the basics: Reading, Writing, Math with Financial Life skills, Cursive. Keep sexual content, personal religious and political views out of the classroom.
With Education: School boards need to be held accountable for curriculum changes, schools must have transparency with the parents. Home schooling, public, private or charter schools should be equally funded. Independent schools should be allowed to keep students within the district and charge tuition to those who live outside the district. Keep schools open and offer NTI for students who are out sick or choose to stay home- there shouldn't be an issue with Zoom like classroom time.
City Councils and School boards should work together to make their communities better.
Fair wages should go hand in hand with cost of living. Those on welfare should be held accountable to on the job training, drug testing, monitoring of EBT funds.
Those who risked it all for others- those who hid the Jews during the Holocaust, those who worked the Underground Railroad and those who fought for Civil Rights. I once heard a quote that said, "If you never helped others during your lifetime, then your life was a waste".
"The Fall of the Cabal" parts 1-10 really dives into the corruption of the governments, Hollywood, and corporate elites.
Integrity, Honesty, Hard Working and Dedication
I am a hard worker, dedicated to my beliefs and I am a Patriot who believes in fighting to protect our rights and freedoms that are being stripped away.
To represent the people voices of their county.
That I served others well.
The Spaceship Challenger Explosion. I was 15.
McDonald's cashier at the age of 16. I worked there for 3 months during the Summer.
The tattooist of Auschwitz. It told the story of what it was like in the camp, how he survived and how he met his love. Also, it is very detailed and pulls you in.
Wonder Woman- I can make people tell the truth, fly in an invisible plane, jump off of tall buildings, run fast and look good doing it all.
The Git Up Song- Blanco Brown
Depending on others. I have been let down too many times so I have a hard time relying on other people for help. I tend to just do things myself.
Both should be able to work together for the greater good of the people of Kentucky.
Education-We need to be better as a state but also need to get a handle on the curriculum. Stop wasting time on teaching subjects that have no business in the classroom, like sexual content, political or religious personal views. We need to get the children ready for life after school, financial wellness, trades, post secondary careers.
Taxes- the Build Back Better program has caused such a high inflation on everything that for generations to come, we will be paying that back. We need to look at what can benefit the state as well as the people, like increase state taxes but reduce or completely cut property taxes and automobile taxes.

One party does not represent all the people. It is good to have different views, different perspectives and to be able to come to a common solution for all.
No, Politicians are known to be corrupt and bought by outside influences. So there needs to be fresh people who can represent the people and what they want rather than big corporations calling the shots.
It is natural for relationships to form. Getting like minded individuals together and discussing issues can help get bills passed quicker and without much opposition.
Yes. Redistricting allows for all counties to be equally represented based on census.
I would need to see a full list of committees and go from there, but anything pertaining to mandates and healthcare for sure.
I admire some of the new legislatures currently serving in Congress, like Kat Cammack, Marjorie Taylor Green, and Lauren Boebert
Ever since Donald Trump ran for office, he showed the world that you don't have to be a politician to do a good job. Then seeing regular house moms stand up and fight for our country was inspiring.
What is black and white, black and white, black and white? A penguin rolling down the hill.
Absolutely. It is better for them rather than all power given to one person, such as the governor.
Compromise is important in order to work with others unless it means compromising your morals, ethics or principals.
