…”Meet at The Old Mill, We Ride at Midnight”

#ColdAnger – After ten consecutive months of the Vichy Republican political class ridiculing patriotic Americans, nipping at us, over – and – over, belittling us, marginalizing us, spiting us, poking their finger in our chests….  Well, now, our brothers and sisters in New York engage their moment to have their voices heard.
A visible and quantifiable moment to rise, push-back, join with common sense fiscal conservatives and state OUR united refusal to be co-dependents in our national demise. 
We are counting on you in New York not just for victory, but to deliver a resounding victory that can help inspire the remaining primary states to assemble.
