Bill, Scott, and Steve:
First, thank you so much for all of the content you provide. I came across your videos on YT several months ago and enjoy all of them, including the painful ones where Scott has to ask Bill the difficult questions and then get pummeled!
As a general rule I don’t create videos, post blogs, or get involved in politics outside of conversations with friends, family, and of course the vote. I prefer to just live my life peacefully and quietly with my family. But that needs to change.
I just finished watching Bill’s “An American Army” and, like him, I don’t want to get involved but I must. However, unlike him, I don’t have much of a background in this sort of thing and I am lost about where to start.
I get the feeling that your team is having discussions about what needs to be done. And after what happened in DC, you are very likely starting from scratch. Maybe a third political party needs to be formed. Maybe start with local school boards or city councils. Whatever you are planning, I want to be involved, somehow.
Thank you for whatever specific guidance you can provide! And if you are forming a larger task force I would love being a member.

In addition to the other recommends, if you haven’t already . . .
Don’t use Google search, Google Chrome or Safari. Switch to another browser and your info. will be safer (in theory) and you’ll avoid the “far left imaginary truth” from Google.
Cancel your TV/Cable subscriptions. Switch to alternative media.
Switch your cell service to an American friendly service such as Patriot Mobile. I’m sure there are others.
Cancel Amazon Prime and/or Kindle Unlimited. Stop shopping at Amazon and other big corps stores. Support your local ones.
We all just wanted to be left alone to live our lives. Welcome to the club.
Excellent suggestions, thanks! I tend to use FireFox but I’ve been thinking of switching to the Brave browser. Thankfully I don’t have any normal TV or Cable subscriptions, but I will need to look at all of my premium streaming services, such as Netflix, CBSAllAccess, etc.
Been following these guys for years now and they are moving me to also get more involved. I think we do need some leadership to help those of us who are not very experienced learn how to take effective action.
Steven,
Like you I have been living a politically passive life-style, other than the occasional letters to my US Senators and Representatives to urge them to action in a direction I thought important. I had also written to my state senator and representative with similar requests. It is also likely that you are significantly younger than I. My prospects for running for some office are remote since I am much closer to Pelosi’s age than Dan Crenshaw’s.
I did two things in response to Bill’s “An American Army” post: First, I upped my Bill Whittle membership level. Second, I wrote to my state senator, and especially, my state representative (who, incidentally, are both conservatives) expressing my support, and offering my services to help in any way I can. From my conversations with them, I expect to hear how I can contribute, meaningfully, at local and state levels to right this ship.
Perhaps my two initiatives will spur some ideas of your own on how to begin.
Your last bit about school boards and city councils is closer to the mark. The plan is to get people elected to state governments (although those you mentioned are also necessary). Once we have enough at the state level, we get elections fixed – no mail-in, paper ballots, comprehensive oversight & monitoring – absolutely fair and trustworthy elections.
Some of us are already looking into ancillary support – basically marketing. And I’ve written a document stating the why and what of our movement.
Things have already started but it’s still early days. Great time to join in. I had set up secure communications but I learned today that the app I’m using isn’t trustworthy. I’m looking for a replacement right now and I’ll announce it as soon as it’s ready.
Thank you so much for putting together that document and working on a secure communication method.
I forgot to mention that I do work in IT and I will gladly help test any solution you find.
Great! I’ll let you know when I run into trouble. I did software design my whole career.
