A lot has been said in the last week or so about my campaign: many half-truths and outright lies.
But, rather than bandy words and try to refute the dishonest press, I’d like to talk to the voters about why I’m running, who I am, what I believe, and why I think Wisconsin and America can ill-afford another term from either establishment candidates.
Both Hovde and Baldwin represent the interests of those who have driven us to the brink of WWIII and economic collapse. Those that have enabled the invasion of our southern border, promoted social disorder, rampant crime, and forever wars.
They represent the old guard that despises the growing unity of the America First movement and wants to keep the status quo where Americans are the first taxed and the last considered.
Who am I?
My name is Thomas Leager, I work two jobs to keep my head above water like so many in the current economy must. I’m a working-class guy who refuses to let the country I love turn into a Banana Republic, without a fight.
I believe in the vision that the Founders of our great nation had for these United States.
I started dabbling in politics around 2015/16, beginning with organizing Pro-2A grassroots protests against Red Flag Laws and the incessant onslaught against our Right to Bear Arms.
I proceeded to organize a bi-partisan anti-lockdown protest, ReOpen Wisconsin in 2020, aimed at opening up the state before the entirety of our local small businesses were destroyed.
The protest was a success, but sadly relief came too late for many of those same small businesses.
It was shortly after this that the FBI began openly weaponizing itself against conservative, right-wing populists, and constitutional activists.
The FBI tried to entrap me and succeeded in entrapping some of my friends, in their performatory “kidnapping” plot of Governor Gretchen Whitmer. The only thing we were guilty of was that we loved our country, trained with guns, and griped about the abuses being heaped upon us by our government.
After that, as I tried to regain a normal life, I began advocating for the other victims of the FBI’s entrapment plot and proceeded to defend our 2A rights as a state lobbyist for Wisconsin Gun Owners Inc.
Many would have given up, but I refused to be silenced.
I decided to run for office.
I made the mistake of trusting the Patriots Run Project. But, despite the PRP’s motives, I again refuse to let that turn me aside from what I believe is right. I believe in the real change my campaign stands for, and I intend to win.
What are the main goals of America First?
The main goals of America First, are to bring together the best parts of the anti-establishment and liberty-centric populism stirring in America. Putting Americans first, before galavanting across the globe to fix other nation’s problems. America First creates a unified front against the lies and corruption that have taken root in our halls of power and focuses on bringing true accountability to the government.
We need to restore our Country.
The Associated Press can twist my words, and lie about me, knowing that I cannot possibly fight their far-reaching lie factory.
I am not thrilled that the “Patriots Run Project” lied, but at the end of the day, I’m grateful and blessed to have the chance to try and serve the State and Country I love to the best of my ability.
My main goal is to help Wisconsin and America heal and return to sanity.
In the face of a looming financial crisis, driven by the declining ratio of taxpayers to beneficiaries and an increasingly unsustainable social safety net, it is imperative that we rethink our approach to mandatory spending programs such as Social Security (SSI) and Medicare. This policy proposal outlines a transformative plan to secure the future of these critical programs while safeguarding the financial well-being of all Americans.
**The Problem**
Since 1960, the ratio of taxpayers to SSI beneficiaries has dropped from 5.1 to 1 to 2.8 to 1. With American birthrates plummeting and childless households rising, our current system is under immense strain. This demographic shift presents a significant financial challenge, threatening the stability of SSI and Medicare for future generations.
**The Plan**
To address these challenges, our policy will implement a phased reform approach:
1. **Grandfathering Existing Beneficiaries** – **Aging Population Protection:** Individuals aged 50 and older will continue to receive SSI and Medicare benefits as per the current system. They will retain their benefits without any changes to their current entitlements. – **Opt-In Option:** Those aged 50 and older may choose to transition to the new plan if they prefer, providing flexibility and individual choice.
2. **Reforming Benefits for Younger Generations** – **Payout for Contributions:** Individuals aged 49 and younger will receive a lump sum payout of their contributions to SSI and Medicare. This will be their personal money, returned to them in full. – **Investment and Savings Assistance:** To ensure a secure financial future, these individuals will have the option to: – **Invest Independently:** Receive their payout to invest in private retirement accounts and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) of their choice. – **Participate in a Government-Backed Investment Program:** Enroll in a government-supported program that offers educational resources and assistance in setting up retirement and health savings accounts, with a focus on stable, retirement-oriented investments.
3. **Downsizing Federal Agencies** – **Streamlining Government:** We will address the financial shortfall by downsizing ineffective and redundant federal agencies. The funds saved from these reductions will be redirected to support the transition and ensure a smooth implementation of this plan.
4. **Ending Social Benefits for Illegal Immigrants** – **Focus on Citizens:** We will terminate all social benefits provided to illegal immigrants, ensuring that resources are directed towards American citizens and legal residents.
**Benefits of the Plan**
– **Empowerment:** Provides younger generations with greater control over their financial future, allowing them to potentially achieve more substantial retirement savings than traditional SSI benefits. – **Flexibility:** Offers both independent investment options and guided investment programs to meet diverse needs and preferences.
**Sustainability:** Reduces the financial burden on the US taxpayer and reduces the federal debt, by proposing a painless way to ween the populace off of government centered solutions and providing the needed resource to switch to individual based solutions. Our proposal has the propensity to lead to far greater wealth generation and financial stability, than the current archaic system which provides a wealth cap as to how much you can collect.
**Addressing Criticisms**
Contrary to those who argue that such reforms are impractical, we believe that empowering individuals to manage their own retirement savings is not only feasible but also beneficial. Critics like @SenatorBaldwin may argue that government-managed systems are superior, but history has shown that private investment can often yield better returns and more secure futures for individuals.
**Conclusion**
Our proposal to “Save The Future Of Our Nation” represents a bold and pragmatic approach to reforming SSI and Medicare. By transitioning to a system that prioritizes personal control and investment education, we can address the impending financial crisis while protecting and empowering American citizens. Together, we can build a prosperous future for all.
Wisconsin NEEDS to Vote #AmericaFirst! Why Eric Hovde is a Threat to Our Values
As the 2024 elections draw near, the stakes have never been higher for Wisconsin. We stand at a crucial crossroads—one that will determine the future of our state and our nation. At this pivotal moment, it’s essential that we, the people of Wisconsin, put our country first and reject candidates who don’t represent our values. That’s why Eric Hovde, handpicked by Representative Robin Vos, is NOT the right choice for our state. In fact, he’s a threat to the very principles that define the America First movement.
Eric Hovde’s Globalist Agenda
Eric Hovde, a figure who is deeply entrenched in the world of global finance, has positioned himself as a “Republican candidate,” but his track record suggests otherwise. His ties to globalist agendas and anti-American outlets like BloombergTV andCNBC raise red flags about where his true loyalties lie. Hovde’s career in finance, particularly his affiliations with multinational corporations, means that his interests have often aligned with the goals of The Great Reset—a sweeping globalist movement aimed at reshaping economies and national sovereignty.
Hovde’s philanthropy may seem like a positive on the surface, but when you dig deeper, you’ll find that much of his charitable involvement aligns with organizations that promote global governance over American self-reliance. His backing of global financial systems that erode national borders is the antithesis of what Wisconsin and the United States need right now.
Tammy Baldwin and Eric Hovde: Two Sides of the Same Coin
For years, we’ve seen Tammy Baldwin represent Wisconsin with a far-left, socialist agenda that is completely out of touch with the hard-working families of our state. Baldwin has long supported policies that put international interests ahead of American workers, from supporting the Green New Deal to pushing for radical, open-border policies.
What’s even more concerning is that Eric Hovde, while parading himself as a Republican, shares many of Baldwin’s globalist sympathies. He may not be as overt as Baldwin, but his history in finance and media shows that he is deeply embedded in the same circles that push for policies that weaken America’s sovereignty and empower foreign interests.
With Baldwin and Hovde on the ballot, Wisconsin is essentially choosing between two candidates who will not fight for the America First agenda. Both candidates are too dangerous for Wisconsin—they represent the interests of elites, not the people.
We Need an America First Candidate
Wisconsin has a proud tradition of standing up for the everyday American. From our agricultural roots to our strong manufacturing sector, we’ve always put hard work and local communities first. But to protect our way of life, we need candidates who are truly dedicated to putting America First—not just in name but in their actions and policies.
Hovde’s background and affiliations make it clear that he is not that candidate. He’s not interested in securing our borders, protecting American jobs, or putting Wisconsin families first. His globalist ties make him a risky choice for those who value national sovereignty and the preservation of our freedoms.
Robin Vos’ Choice: A Betrayal of the GOP
The fact that Representative Robin Vos, a longtime figure in Wisconsin politics, has installed Hovde as the GOP candidate is a betrayal of everything that the America First movement stands for. Vos has chosen a man who has been deeply involved with the very institutions that have sought to undermine the American worker and the values that make this country great.
It’s not just disappointing—it’s dangerous. At a time when the GOP should be rallying behind candidates who will uphold the America First platform, we’ve been given a globalist in Republican clothing.
The Time to Act Is Now
Wisconsin cannot afford to elect another politician who is in the pocket of global elites. We need leaders who will stand firm against the forces of globalization, who will fight for secure borders, who will protect our jobs from being outsourced, and who will prioritize the well-being of American families.
The choice in 2024 is clear. We must reject both Baldwin and Hovde and find a candidate who truly embodies the America First agenda. It’s time for Wisconsin to stand strong, vote with conviction, and make sure that our voices are heard.
Let’s send a message: America First, always. Wisconsin deserves better than candidates who put global interests above our own.
