ALG Praises Sen. Hawley for Being a ‘Real deal champion of liberty’

December 6, 2021

By voting to reject the continuing resolution, he told his constituents that liberty matters.

Fairfax, Va. – Americans for Limited Government President Richard Manning issued the following statement praising Sen. Josh Hawkey, one of 28 U.S. senators, all Republican, who last Thursday rejected the Continuing Resolution, H.R. 6119 that funds enforcement for President Joe Biden’s unconstitutional COVID vaccine mandates:

“These Republicans stood for freedom when they voted for an amendment (which was ultimately rejected by Democrats) to strip out funding to enforce Biden’s vaccine mandate in a federal spending bill. But these senators put their money where their mouth was when they voted against the bill itself, which still included the mandate funding.

“Sen. Hawley is a real deal champion of liberty. By voting to reject the continuing resolution, he told his constituents that liberty matters.

“The fight to defund Biden’s unconstitutional federal government overreach is the fight Republicans were elected to fight.  It is a classic battle between those who believe in limited government powers versus those who believe there is no end to what the federal government can do.”

Biden’s FCC Nominee is a Hyperpartisan Liberal Hack

December 1, 2021

Gigi Sohn’s confirmation would jeopardize investment and innovation,

threaten free speech, and bring partisanship to the FCC.

Fairfax, Va. – Americans for Limited Government President Richard Manning is urging members of the U.S. Senate to reject Gigi Sohn’s nomination to serve as a Commissioner at the Federal Communications Commission. In addition to sending a letter cosigned by 16 other leaders from a broad coalition urging the Senate to reject Sohn’s nomination, Manning issued the following statement:

“If confirmed, President Joe Biden’s nominee Gigi Sohn would work to instill policies that would crush innovation, silence conservative speech, and eviscerate intellectual property protections.

“The FCC was created by Congress to be an independent regulator and it has broad power over the telecommunications, media, and technology sectors. The agency has been characterized by bipartisan cooperation and accountability to Congress. As a well-known hyperpartisan activist, Sohn has no place on the Federal Communications Commission.

“Sohn has launched attacks against regulators and elected officials who do not share her views. She implied that the ranking member of the Senate Commerce Committee is an industry puppet. She suggested that Republican senators are a threat to the country. She credits center-right news outlets with ‘destroying democracy’ and ‘electing autocrats.’ Given these views, it is hard to believe that Sohn would give regulated entities a fair shake or operate in a bipartisan manner at the FCC.

“I urge Senators to reject Sohn’s confirmation.”

Senate Should Reject Saule Omarova for Comptroller of the Currency

November 15, 2021

Saule Omarova is the worse choice out of hundreds of bad nominations.

Fairfax, Va. – Americans for Limited Government President Richard Manning issued the following statement in reaction to the Senate confirmation hearing for Saule Omarova, President Joe Biden’s nominee for the office of the Comptroller of the Currency:

“President Joe Biden’s nominee for the office of Comptroller of the Currency, Saule Omarova, is perhaps the worse choice out of hundreds of bad nominations. You see, Ms. Omarova is a genuine Moscow University (not in Idaho), Lenin Scholar who emigrated to the United States in 1991 who is on video saying, ‘There will be no more private bank deposit accounts and all of the deposit accounts will be held directly at the Fed.’

“When this statement is put into the context of an administration that has aggressively sought to have annual transaction reports for every bank account with more than $600, what could go wrong? While most people don’t know what the Comptroller of the Currency does, the position is more than a signature line on the money.  The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency overseas the execution of laws relating to national banks including chartering, regulating and supervising them.

“When combined with the broad powers that the Consumer Finance Protection Board has over the financial services sector, the prospects of a radical appointee in this relatively obscure position poses a real danger to the flow of money through our financial system.

“Ms. Omarova is the exact kind of radical that America does not need and should be rejected by the Senate.”

Rittenhouse Criminal Case Implodes

November 8, 2021

Today’s testimony makes crystal clear Kyle Rittenhouse acted in self-defense

Fairfax, Va. – Gaige Grosskreutz was one of the attackers of Kyle Rittenhouse in Kenosha, Wisconsin last year. After giving testimony earlier today attempting to paint himself as a victim of Rittenhouse, the witness/attacker admitted today during cross examination he was shot only after he threatened Rittenhouse by pointing a gun at him inches away from his head.

While the prosecution hoped Grosskreutz sketchy testimony would assist their case, the actual testimony supports the defense claim of Rittenhouse acting in self defense after being attacked by a mob.

Americans for Limited Government President Richard Manning issued the following statement in reaction to today’s developments:

“There can be no other conclusion than not guilty by reason of self-defense in the case of Kyle Rittenhouse, the then-17-year old who defended himself against the attack of rioters in Kenosha, WI who now stands trial on murder charges.

“Testimony by the prosecution’s star witness, Gaige Grosskreutz, demonstrates under oath that Rittenhouse was chased by the assailant and only fired at him when the assailant’s handgun was pointed at him. This testimony exonerates Rittenhouse from charges he killed two people. The fact that the prosecution continued with the case with the knowledge of this witness’s sworn testimony, which any honest prosecutor had to have heard before the witness took the stand, makes it clear that Rittenhouse has been prosecuted for political purposes rather than legal ones. Judge Bruce Schroeder should immediately declare a summary judgement of not guilty. There is no reason to continue to put the people of Kenosha and the state of Wisconsin through the emotional tension associated with this trial as the evidence clearly shows that Rittenhouse acted to save his own life.

“The prosecution’s star witness makes is crystal clear that if Rittenhouse did not act in self defense, there is no ability for anyone to defend themselves from a violent, and potentially deadly attack. It is time to free Rittenhouse. At this point continuing the trial would be an extreme misuse of the criminal justice system.

“The only question that remains is who in the prosecutor’s office gets fired for bringing this case forward given the clear evidence that a not guilty verdict was the only possible outcome.”

Virginians love liberty

November 3, 2021

Tuesday’s election results sends shockwaves through the nation

Fairfax, Va. –  Republicans flipped six House of Delegates seats in Virginia on Tuesday, returning a GOP majority in the House of Delegates. Americans for Limited Government President Richard Manning issued the following statement in reaction:

“The vote to change the make-up of the House of Delegates is the culmination of work by Virginians for America First and Americans for Limited Government which began in February of 2021. Non-stop volunteer organizing and engagement in the state resulted in both effective voter integrity and turnout efforts.  In the past few weeks, our volunteers have knocked on more than 70,000 doors in twenty swing House of Delegates districts and the response has been gratifying and overwhelming.  Virginians love liberty.  Yesterday’s vote proves that, and should send shockwaves through the nation as the left finds that freedom still rings even as they attempt to squelch it.”

Debunking Democrat Lies About Virginia Absentee Ballots

November 1, 2021

Democrats throw postal workers  under the bus in attempt to  steal election.

 

Fairfax, Va. – Virginia Democrats have filed a lawsuit against the United States Postal Service (USPS) complaining about a “delay” of 300,000 mail-in votes just days before election officials and corporate media outlets began priming the public for a scenario in which the results of the gubernatorial election may not be decided on Election Day due to mail-in ballots.

The Elias Law Group, a firm recently hired by the Terry McAuliffe campaign headed by Clinton-allied attorney Marc Elias, filed a lawsuit on behalf of the Democratic Party of Virginia on Friday October 22 against USPS citing a “delay” of over 300 thousand mail-in ballots in the gubernatorial race.

But according to the independent non-profit voter integrity group Virginia Public Access Project (VPAP) there are only 108,000 uncounted absentee ballots in the state. In addition, the USPS spokesperson told the Washington Times,“Our Election Mail processes and procedures are fully operational in Virginia. We are not aware of any processing delays of any ballots within our facilities nor any ballot delivery delays, and we have fully communicated this information to election officials.”

Americans for Limited Government President Richard Manning issued the following statement in reaction to the Democrat’s attempt to steal the Virginia election:

“Attorney Marc Elias, part of the Bill and Hillary Clinton crime syndicate, is up to his usual dirty tricks. Corporate media and partisan election officials are already priming Virginia voters for a post-Election Day debacle in which the winner of the race may be unknowable until the following Friday due to mail-in ballots.

“It is clear Virginia Democrats will stop at nothing to steal this election. They are desperate, because they know this election is a referendum on Joe Biden’s failed presidency and his socialist agenda and they are losing.

“Americans for Limited Government and Virginians for America First have turned over to a number of House of Delegate candidates the names of thousands of absentee ballot filers who are extremely likely to not live at the address where they are registered to vote in violation of Virginia law.  We are strongly encouraging these candidates to request that the identified absentee ballots be held aside as provisional ballots so the respective election officials can determine their legitimacy.”

This merchandise store promises to create additional funds for this battle over our country’s soul.  Plus, it will be a fun way to spread the freedom message that everyone can enjoy, with the likely exception of President Biden, Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Schumer,” Manning concluded.
