Nestled in the northern woods of Wisconsin is a place where few have gone, and those who have might swear God took extra effort to create. Rice Lake, located in the northwest quadrant of the state, is a place like no other. Where rural meets tourism and Patriots are a mainstay of the community. In the summer of 2023, I made the long drive from Arkansas to Barron County, Wisconsin. It was a rare event where 4 men for which I worked were featured speakers. I had not been to any events due to several hospital stays for my mother, but when I saw the flyer, I knew I needed to make the effort to go. I had frequently seen three of my “guys”, but the fourth I hadn’t seen in person. I had planned on an excursion to see him in Massachusetts the year before, but ultimately it wasn’t part of God’s plan.
The event was a Second Amendment Rally that combined good food, election integrity speakers, and a multi-gun raffle. And one of the speakers even won a prize! The crowd turnout was high. In fact, at a level that I had not experienced very often. 700+ patriotic Americans packed into one building at the fairgrounds. Lots of fun, guns, food, drink, and dancing. Most of the dancing provided by Wisconsin’s one and only Orlando Owens. You have to adore a man who openly wears a “Black Guns Matter” shirt for all to see and who likes to boogey… The presentations by Ivan, Dr Frank, James, Jefferson, and Seth energized the crowd. Let’s say I think many were inspired into action that day…
The event was organized by a man named Jim Swenson. Jim, the chairman of the local Barron County GOP. A man so brave as to have multiple speakers talk about election integrity in a state where RINOS lead the party. Even if one of the speakers didn’t make it and had to speak via Zoom. The deep state is constantly after Ivan… You have to love a man who marauds the deep state, all while smiling… He may not stand as tall as the rest, but his spirit soars over most.
After all, not many states have a state GOP run by lobbyists. Robin Vos, the Speaker of the Wisconsin House, is a man so slimy, you can feel dirty just hearing his name. His taunting of Mike Lindell and President Trump is infamous. His dirty tricks in a state of Patriots is infuriating. A man who once even admitted that fraud occurred in 2020, but refused to do a damn thing about it, because it wasn’t his responsibility. Many have claimed the fraud that took place in Wisconsin was the most blatant and also the most easily fixed… The lowest hanging fruit… Yet, the powers that be, have no interest in tackling the elephant in the room. Why, you ask? My theory is “Why would they would want to fix a system that has aided in their election?” Or perhaps, the ones instigating the fraud lie in the shadows with Vos and Lemahieu being their puppets. The following, courtesy of investigative journalist, Peter Bernegger… It explains the uphill battle being faced by the citizens of Wisconsin.
Here is who is running the Wisconsin Republican Party at the state level: lobbyists. It is not Robin Vos or "Chairman" Mark Jefferson. The Wis. Rep. Party bosses are James E. Ladwig a lobbyist (note he did pass away a few months ago), Bill McGoshen a lobbyist, John Gard a lobbyist, Reince Priebus a lobbyist. McGoshen and Preibus work for Michael Best Strategies, LLC of the Michael Best Fredrick Law Firm. These people along with the law firm run the Wis. Rep. Party of Wisconsin. Robin Vos, Mark Jefferson, Brian Schimming are beneath them. Lobbyists took over, they don't care if they win elections. They just want their cut of the some $500-600 million that will come into the Wisconsin political scene. Doesn't their actions, or lack of actions, make more sense now? They don't care if they win elections. It explains why they don't fight. My speech on this at Wisconsin Dells from this past Saturday in video above. Today Jan.23rd 6:30pm I am speaking at the Washington Center - see post above.

Back to that Saturday in Wisconsin, memories were made that day. Some first-time meetings between the speakers were captured… And the initial awkwardness I felt seemed to disappear as the hours passed. I had done my best to avoid one man but ultimately, was encouraged by another to face my fear and face the man I hadn’t seen in months. In retrospect, maybe, I should have stuck to my original plan and steered clear… Maybe, I would have avoided more problems if I had not tried to heal the open wounds. All in all, it was a good day. It was a day without drama. A day without insults being directed at me. Maybe, I enjoyed attending in-person events because I could capture the speeches by video, and it was without the backdrop of social media. No whispers of “Stalker, bitch, hooker.” The pettiness, the anger, the feuds, no where to be seen or heard. An event like this brings good people together to make a difference. Unity of sorts. We need more unity and less infighting if we are going to fix elections and put Donald J Trump back in the White House…
Jimmy Swenson, a brave man like no other, organized an event that made a difference in Wisconsin that day. Men with courage seem to be rare these days. Men with the courage to stand up to bad people… And sometimes the courage to stand up to friends who just do bad things occasionally… And because of his courage, he faces a situation that has shocked most. Labeled an extremist by his own party… Last Saturday, the Republican Party of Wisconsin took action against Jimmy and the Barron County GOP behind closed doors. True cowardice comes from those who hide their deeds in the shadows with a lack of transparency for the citizens they claim to represent. Hidden behind a secret vote, they revoked the charter of the Barron County GOP. After taking their action, they scurried out of the room like a bunch of rats fleeing from the scene of the crime. Not only did they seize their county GOP bank accounts, but they continued to push for the full list of members. Perhaps in an attempt to assasinate the reputations of those who dared to stand with Jim Swenson. We expect actions like this from Democrats, Communists, and Marxists. Not in Wisconsin… Those actions coming from the Republicans. More proof that our greatest opponents in the battle of good versus evil isn’t the Democrats on the other side of the aisle. The largest hill we have to climb is against those who pretend to be our allies when in actuality, they are poisoned by corruption, greed, and the need for power. Beware of the enemy within. Beware of RINOs (Republicans in Name Only). Beware of those whose motives are not pure and transparent. Beware of those who pretend to be your friend, but will stab you in the back when you aren’t looking…
I ask you for your help in this fight. Stand up for Jimmy and the citizens of Barron County. Voice your outrage. Be respectful but show that these dictators do not represent us. We will not condone their actions. Stand up for the Barron County GOP, like the Governors who stood shoulder to shoulder with Governor Abbott for border security. Your country needs you to take a stand.
And next time, before you enter the booth to vote on Election Day… Do your due diligence. Don’t just take the easy road and vote a straight party ticket. Don’t just assume that if they have a R by their name that they are part of your team. Do your research. Learn which candidates are Patriots and learn which candidates are RINOs. Search your soul and do the right thing as you see best. If you think they will stop with the Barron County GOP, you are wrong. This is just the beginning. They will use their actions to intimidate those into fear to prevent them from standing up for free and fair elections. And in those rare instances, when a brave man or woman, pushes against the grain, they will be punished. The rules have changed, but we cannot back down. We are God’s warriors…
