The list of recipients of Gates’s largess contains establishment RINOS from other states as well. The fact that at least two of OUR supposedly conservative politicians are on THAT gravy train needs to be widely known.

I won’t waste the space on proving Gates our mortal enemy. Anyone who doesn’t know of his patents on depopulation drugs and artificial  intelligence isn’t doing their homework as a supporter of freedom.  Anyone who KNOWS of the dark evil of Gates should NOT be accepting donations from him. I expect our elected representatives to fall into that latter category.  

However, those two, Fleischman and Hagerty, have chosen to accept funds from the Evil Genius. Gates will ask a quid pro quo at some  point, if he has not already. 

In order to keep an eye on our elected representatives. I like to check Liberty Scores, published by the Conservative Review. Many good  Vols probably already do. I’m sharing for those who don’t. Sites like  this are informative and easy to navigate.

Liberty Scores assigns both a letter and a percentage grade indicating how those we trust with our lives, are voting – whether and how often they vote for or against conservative policies. Here are the records for Chuck Fleischman and Bill Hagerty.  

Fleischman: 56% / F

Hagerty: 88%/B

Before I learned of the Gates donations, I’d been fairly pleased with Hagerty. I learned long ago that Fleischman is not on our side much of the time. But, the REST of the Liberty scores for our “good  red state” might shock you. Only two of our elected representatives  from both the US House AND US Senate, have earned an “A”:  Marsha Blackburn, who votes for us 93% of the time, and Tim Burchett, who votes 95% for conservative values.  

The rest of our TN gang in DC has grades of three B’s, voting for us  83-85% of the time (Green, Harshbarger and Rose) and another “F”,  David Kustoff, TN5, who chooses to vote with the Left 41% of the time. 

Thousands of political refugees are moving to Tennessee because of  our conservative reputation. Tennessee is what America used to be,  and that is an incredible attraction in such an incredulous world.  They are part of what is keeping our economy stronger than much of  the rest of America. Some may be bringing their blue poison with them, and our large cities are showing the rot. This is, of course a  huge danger. Maybe Fleischman and Haggerty are thinking that they  need to stay popular with people who have ruined their own states  before coming here.  

We must disabuse these two of any such notions. If either of these two are your congressmen, call them. Meet with them. Email them if that’s all you can do, but demand that they stay aware that they are  working for Constitutional Conservatives. Still, and we pray, always.
