Campaign website

Saylor's campaign website stated the following:

“	CIVIL UNREST The establishment Republicans failed to act during the violent riots that occurred during the summer of 2020. Cities burned, as rioters destroyed and looted two-to-four billion dollars worth of property. Cities burned, as criminals killed between 20 to 30 people and assaulted hundreds more. This country endured widescale domestic terrorism and the Republicans in office remain largely silent on the matter, fearful that any loud objection will get them labeled as racist by the mainstream media. Their failure to speak up and speak out allowed the liberal media to describe these atrocities as “mostly peaceful” demonstrations. The Left has not been silent on this issue. Democratic representative Maxine Waters flew to Minnesota during the trial of Derek Chauvin and declared to the crowd outside the courthouse that they should “get more confrontational” in an act of jury intimidation. Vice President Kamala Harris encouraged the public to help donate to the Minnesota Freedom Fund to bail out rioters that were arrested. Liberal district attorneys across the major cities have also decided not to prosecute many of those who were arrested in favor of supporting their ideology, and many governors refused federal assistance in stopping the riots. What we must do is create an investigative task force that will pursue the rioters, the arsonists, the looters, and the assailants from these events. This task force would pursue these criminals with as much energy as the protestors on January 6 were pursued for trespassing at The Capitol. Those arrested would be tried in federal courts where liberal district attorneys could not decline to prosecute because they have the same political leanings. CHINA China is the largest outside threat to this great nation. Our cultural institutions, such as Hollywood and the NBA, bow down before China and make every possible effort to be accommodating towards Chinese propaganda. The big industries of America continue to increase their investments in China and not America. These same industries refuse to acknowledge China’s human rights violations, such as concentration camps and human trafficking, but condemn our country as being inherently racist. All this is occurring as China is working to corrupt the minds of our youth on college campuses with their Confucius Institutes and Pro-Chinese propaganda being pushed in social media. The establishment has stood by and even promoted the infiltration of America’s institutions by the Chinese Communist Party. Multiple intelligence agents in both the CIA and FBI have conspired with China. It is public knowledge that politicians such as Representatives Swalwell and Feinstein as well as President Biden have ties that make them compromised by China. Those that bend the knee to Beijing are traitors to this country. Those in office with loyalty to China will enact and promote policies that favor China, not the United States. We must investigate these people and prosecute them accordingly. SOCIAL MEDIA The establishment Republicans refused to stop social media platforms from censoring conservative thought. It is because of their failure that they allowed social media platforms to push Liberalism through an exploit in section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. Between 2017 and 2018, Republicans had both houses of Congress and did nothing to protect free speech on these platforms. Why should we think that the establishment Republicans would do anything in 2023 to protect free speech if they already did nothing the last time they had the chance? Because of the establishment Republicans’ failure to act, Conservative personalities are being wiped from social media platforms while extremists on the left are given free rein to promote violence. President Donald Trump was purged from social media in response to telling protesters to be “peaceful and patriotic”, but the leader of the Taliban is still allowed on these platforms. Twitter and Facebook suspended the New York Post’s account and suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story before the election. If the Hunter Biden laptop story had been released, Joe Biden would have lost 1 in 10 voters, every single swing state, and the election. We need Republicans that actually understand the issues with social media and that will fight to fix the broken laws allowing the suppression of Conservativism. We can reform section 230 so that platforms cannot continue to suppress free speech and our beliefs with impunity. GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS Our government institutions have increasingly become corrupt, partisan, and protective of the liberal elites. The FBI acknowledged that Hillary Clinton committed a felony when she used a private server for communications. When people found out about the server communications, Clinton proceeded to destroy it. Even though the FBI acknowledges the felony that Clinton committed, they highly discouraged any prosecution. The FBI raided a journalist’s house in search of Ashley Biden’s diary, knowing that the diary could potentially implicate President Biden in criminal activity. The FBI then proceeded to leak the journalist’s private legal documents to the New York Times. At this time, the journalist was suing the New York Times for deformation, and the legal documents that were leaked revealed the journalist’s legal strategy in the lawsuit. The Department of Justice wrote a narrative to the FBI to begin investigating parents who speak out against school boards and to treat them as domestic terrorists. It was recently revealed that the CIA has been harboring pedophiles within the ranks of its organization. It was also revealed that the CIA has decided to not press charges on those individuals for the explicit acts that they know were committed. Establishment Republicans will talk and promote commonsense platitudes like “parents should have a say in their children’s education” or “Hillary Clinton should be prosecuted” but they refuse to do anything about them. What we must do is place these institutions under bipartisan review boards. These boards would root out bad actors and allow the American people to regain some sense of trust in our institutions. We must hold those in power to the same accountability to which the American people are held. INFLATION AND THE ECONOMY Inflation has caused the cost of living to increase by over 7.9% in the past year. At this rate, the value of the dollar will be halved in under 10 years. Wages will not keep pace with this level of inflation, meaning less real pay for workers. On top of shrinking wages, inflation causes the money stored in banks to lose value, costing many families their life savings. Americans who work hard, live within their income, and save their money should not be punished because the federal government does not know how to operate within its means. The middle and lower classes are getting squeezed by the reckless spending driving this inflation. Establishment Republicans allowed Democrats to shoehorn foreign aid as well as the payoff of special interest groups into the stimulus packages. American taxpayers paid to give money to other countries and to groups to whom politicians owed favors as part of the pandemic relief. The cost of gas, food, clothes, and other items are increasing in part because the government is generous with our money. Every man, woman, and child in this country owes $87,000 on behalf of the government due to this reckless spending. The Establishment does not care about the middle class; therefore, it is time to throw them out. We need a Congress that puts the needs of its people first. It is time we stop letting them spend our money on things for other people. It is time we put America first. TERM LIMITS The establishment is not grounded in reality. This is because we have allowed Congress to be filled with life-long politicians who have no experience doing anything but campaigning well and legislating poorly. America can no longer afford to be run by politicians motivated primarily by staying in office. We need people who will serve this country with honor but have the moral fiber to leave before they are corrupted. 82% of Americans want to see term limits, but the establishment in Congress refuse to consider the idea. Congress, being the one that would have to pass the term limits, will never do this when the establishment politicians don’t want it in the first place. We need enough good Americans placed into office that are willing to curtail their own power. As no institution should be able to determine its own power, the people should be able to vote for Congressional term limits. Therefore, Congress should place the idea of term limits up to a national vote.	”
