Yesterday, in Flint, MI Donald Trump said: "Only consequential Presidents get shot at." Donald Trump, Ronald Reagan and John Kennedy had two things in common. Each of them sought to stop the threat of nuclear annihilation and each of them were targets for assassination, one of which succeeded.
Erik Prince, the man who provided flawless security in the Iraq war zone, says supplementing the Secret Service’s advance and planning teams with people who think like a professional assassin, could substantially help the situation. This, we believe, is what must be implemented immediately.
We're issuing a call to action to beef up President Trump's security after the second assassination attempt against him. We also have reports on our interventions with Trump's new GOP in Texas, organizing Michigan auto workers for Trump.
State Representative Shawn Thierry of Houston announced Friday morning that she was leaving the Democratic Party and becoming a Republican. Thierry's primary election contest in the spring of 2024 was widely described as a test of whether Democratic lawmakers who do not fully support LGBTQ+ causes could continue to exist in the Democratic Party.
Rep. Thierry not only voted in 2023 for a measure barring gender-transitioning care for minors, she delivered an emotional speech from the House floor, explaining her vote, which went viral.
The Democratic lined up a primary opponent vs. Thierry, Lauren Ashley Simmons. Simmons received large amounts of money and endorsements from Democratic Party elected officials; it was made clear that Thierry's actions were not to be tolerated by the Democratic Party. Despite support from a coalition of black ministers, Thierry was overwhelmed by the massive campaign against her and lost the primary runoff election.
In the statement she released on August 30, announcing that she was leaving the Democratic Party and joining the Republican Party, Thierry said:
...For my entire life, I have voted as a Democrat. . .
I have watched with dismay as the party I once knew has drifted far from its roots.
It has become almost unrecognizable --radicalized and increasingly out of touch with the values that millions of everyday Americans hold dear.
I now stand with the party of Lincoln, the party that fought to preserve our Union and fought to end the atrocities of slavery.
In 2024, the Republican Party champions economic empowerment. . .it is the party that fosters prosperity and entrepreneurial opportunities, enable small business owners to not just survive, but to thrive, fulfilling the promise of the American dream. . .
Together, we can nurture and protect our children by creating a safer, brighter future for them. Together, we can restore the spirit, security, and soul of America.

To prevent another assassination attempt, the American public must call Joe Biden and Kamala Harris directly to account for this murderous spree and demand that they create a security shield around Donald Trump as if they were protecting a member of their family.
