Polson Voters: Marlow Thelen Endorsed for Mayor!

Lake County Republicans are endorsing Marlow Thelen for Mayor of Polson.

Please share this information with all of your friends and neighbors so we can have a conservative running the City of Polson and sticking up for the citizens of the city.

Marlow stopped by during the Pachyderm Club meeting on Friday the 24th of October to answer our questions in the middle of his busy work day. He impressed everyone with his dedication to the betterment of the city and how it is governed – under the watchful eyes of the residents! Marlow has done a lot of homework, and is clearly someone who knows how things should be done. No wonder, since he is also a member of the commission reviewing the city government. Vote Marlow Thelen for Mayor!

Phillip Marlow Thelen is the ONLY Conservative Choice for Polson Mayor!

If you’re a conservative in Polson, this mayoral election couldn’t be more important.

 Phillip Marlow Thelen is on the ballot as “Marlow Thelen.”  He is the only candidate standing between our town and full liberal control of the Polson Commission. That’s not hyperbole—it’s reality. If you care about fiscal responsibility, local values, and protecting the character of our lakeside community, you need to vote for Thelen. And not just you—get your family, your friends, your neighbors. Every vote counts.

Here’s a snippet from his recent letter to the editor in Lake County Leader. (It’s worth the whole read.) You’ll be impressed:

“Let’s cut the pleasantries, Polson. I’m Phillip Marlow Thelen, and I’m 47 years old. I’ve spent 29 years as a general contractor, building this town up—literally. My business, TCH Builders & Remodeling, is headquartered right here, and I’ve called Polson home for 18 years. Before that? Rural Minnesota, the kind of place that knows common sense—not whatever lunacy is coming out of Tim Walz’s urban constituency.

Unlike the out of towners who just moved in, I’ve got skin in the game.  My son, Carter, has been attending Polson schools since kindergarten. Now I’m running for mayor and frankly it’s time to stop the bleeding.

If you’re tired of the usual excuses, the tax hikes, and the big government types trying to tell you how to live, then I’m your candidate. I don’t owe anyone a thing but the people of Polson.”

Thelen currently serves on the Local Government Study Review Commission and has seen the problems with our city up close. His opponent is a registered democrat and has only lived in Polson for 5 years. She’s a rubber stamp for Ed Meese.

EVERYTHING Hinges on Elections

We the People have to be as loud as possible…. (Mel K)

The entire country is captured by a global financial order that is not willing to give up at all. [The government is not going to save us.] We the People have to be the ones.

Above are excerpts from Mel K’s conversation with Jovan Pulitzer on the evidence that has shown President Trump why no-excuse mail ballots must be done away with. Click the image to watch the show.

On January 6, 2017, DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson designated election systems as critical infrastructure. That is when the silent federalizing of our elections begun. Facts about Albert sensors for monitoring elections nationwide, networking systems for information sharing and analysis (ISACs), etc., can be found in the following book:

Wield the Sword of TRUTH

What is the truth? Never hurts to check sources…

Can we trust that our freedom of religion will always be there? How do we work to ensure that it will? One truth that is hard to dispute is that freedom of religion can only be preserved if Christians get involved in politics. Preaching or following the gospel is not enough. We need the Christian community to be involved. Prayers alone cannot avert the attempts to cleave us from the Bible and the Constitution as well as the Christian values that it is founded on.

Charles Garner, historian and author, has talked extensively on the importance of encouraging our Christian friends to get involved, and we should not forget the book that he wrote to help us in that mission:

What is the truth about the letter that Benjamin Netanyahu has made public? It has been claimed that it is not real. Andrew Kolvet with TPUSA says it is.

Was Charlie an antisemite like some seem to claim? Did he turn AGAINST Israel? He may have criticized Israeli leadership, but does that make him an antisemite? Not according to his own words. Listen to what he says in a focus group with TPUSA chapter leaders. Was he for aggression in general or for the judicial system doing ITS job? In this group he clearly renounces added aggression.

Charlie Kirk on X: “There is no denying that Israel has become a massive topic in U.S. politics, and particularly among Gen Z. At our recent Student Action Summit, I hosted a focus group with our TPUSA students to get a sense of what they think about the topic. As you’ll see, they don’t hate Israel https://t.co/OhK5k8SRZX” / X

 

Do not retreat from social media without a fight. Truth: ‘The front lines of this information war are on social media.’ (from the referenced letter)

General Flynn has reiterated this thought on all his platforms.

Push Back on Misinformation

Charlie Kirk urges Netanyahu to use social media for pushback on false impressions of Israel! We need to do the same with ‘negative campaigns’. This letter (7-8 pages) mentions social media 42 times!

It can be pondered how convenient the use of Charlie’s opinions is in today’s atmosphere. In an interview with Megyn Kelly, he pointed out, among other things, that Israel needs someone like Karoline Leavitt! It appears this now connects to Netanyahu’s desire to actually purchase social media platforms…

Excerpts from the letter:

“In my opinion, Israel is losing the information war and needs a “communications intervention.” “

“Ask Israelis what do they wish the world knew about Israel. Ask them to respond to examples of misinformation on social media. This could be an entire social media PR campaign called, “Dude, you got us wrong!” “

“Where are the Israelis who are arguing their case to win over public opinion? Israel should be making its case 24/7 on social media including […]”

“Perhaps the best way to convey my thoughts here is to think of Israel as a political candidate (in this case a younger woman who grew up on social media). Who is this candidate and what does she stand for? Right now there’s essentially a massive negative ad campaign spreading on social media. These negative ads are defining this candidate. “

“Every candidate has a website and social media. It would be political malpractice to omit these tools. Sorry for the brutal honesty, but Israel’s approach to social media is “PR malpractice.” “

“I understand social media as well as anyone in the world. From my vantage point, Israel has retreated from social media without a fight. How are you going to win over younger generations if you’re starting out in retreat on social media? Younger generations use their TV’s for Netflix – not the evening news. Narratives for younger and even middle-aged people are fought now on social media. Mr. Prime Minister, stop this retreat – get in the information war fight! The front lines of this information war are on social media.”

Be Fearless

“A seed fell, and out of one, many rise. We are all Charlie Kirks now.”

A devout Christian in our community, Tammi Baer, pointed out that the time of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, 12:23 pm, is also the number of the following scripture. Amazing:

A feeling expressed by Tammi and shared by many: “We are one. The body of Christ. No longer divided into denominations, groups, clubs, wishful thinking.  We are becoming united. The community of Christ is more than just following rules and do’s and don’ts. It’s about coming together when one of our family is attacked. We must come out of our divisions or we will all lose. Religion was the problem in Jesus’ day and it’s the problem now.” 

Religion has certainly been used to pitch us against each other. Many now see a true Turning Point for the country in what has happened. Erika Kirk’s speech has been posted and reposted over and over. A battle-cry to heed!

Help the President Get Term Limits Passed

Note:

The LCRCC Chair has aptly pointed out that though term limits for those who are our elected officials are a good idea, it is to be remembered that a lot of what they stand for and do is determined by officials not appointed or elected. They can stay on forever and feed agendas to incoming members of Congress… how about term limits for them?

The OPM (U.S. Office of Personnel Management) says:

“Members of the SES [Senior Executive Service] serve in the key positions just below the top Presidential appointees. SES members are the major link between these appointees and the rest of the Federal workforce. They operate and oversee nearly every government activity in approximately 75 Federal agencies.”

Americans for Term Limits (www.AmericansForTermLimits.org) have put out a card with the following content to help those who want to take action in the matter:

Why Congressional Term Limits Bills S.J.Res. 1 / H.J.Res. 12 Must Be Passed Quickly

  • An overwhelming 87% of voters approve of a constitutional amendment to limit terms of Congress to break the cycle of political cronyism and corruption in exchange for campaign money and “in kind” support that’s created politicians for life and many multi-millionaires.
  • President Trump supports Term Limits, but many of his political adversaries on both sides of the political aisle will fight “tooth and nail” to protect their jobs as career politicians.
  • With this being President Trump’s final term and the possibility of the Democrats regaining majority control of the House in the 2026 midterm elections, this may be our last best chance to get Term Limits passed into law. We may never have this opportunity again.

It will take millions of voters to keep unrelenting pressure on our elected officials to pass this critical legislation now right up to the midterm elections – not that far away. Please – I hope you’ll do your part and make the most generous donation you can to help us fund this massive national “grassroots” effort.

Here’s Another Way YOU Can Help President Trump Get Congressional Term Limits Passed

  • Contact your U.S. Senators urging them to co-sponsor bill S.J.Res. #1:
    United States Senate • Washington, D.C. 20510 • 202-224-3121
  • Contact your U.S. Representative urging him or her to co-sponsor bill H.J.Res. #12:
    United States House of Representatives • Washington, D.C. 20515 • 202-224-3121
  • Tell your family, friends, neighbors and others at gatherings you may attend that Congressional Term Limits legislation is now pending in the U.S. Congress for a vote.

The more voters that Members of Congress hear from who favor term limits the more pressure it will create and help get these bills passed!

Feel Free to Make Copies of This Card and Distribute It Far and Wide!

Thank you!

Each of us has a responsibility

General Flynn continues…:

This is an existential moment for America. New York City, our Nation’s bellwether, is a warning sign. Our borders, our sovereignty, and our freedoms are all under attack. But we are not powerless. We must come together, take decisive action, and safeguard the future of our beloved nation.

The future of America will not be decided by the deep state, the globalists, or foreign powers; it will be decided by We the People.
