Related: About this forumMy Way to Contribute
Shortly after President Pedos inauguration, I was looking for a way to contribute. I cant march; I live in the sparsely-populated outback of north Florida. Traveling now is constrained to the grocery store and medical and veterinary appointments. I heard about 5calls.org and thought, I can do that. When I looked at their guidance, the intent was to call 5 friends and encourage/educate them and urge them to spread the word. Since I dont actually have 5 friends or family, I thought Id change 5calls to 6calls . . . and decided to contact my congressman and 2 senators on a daily basis, both by e-mail and phone call.
5calls posts a large number of issues, gives you pertinent information regarding each issue, and provides a script you can use for contacts. With guidance from the 5calls website, urging respectfulness, and explaining the parameters to be used to complete the transaction, I formed my plan. I would alter the script to include some of the facts provided by 5calls that resonated with me. If legislative action was to be occurring soon, I would ask my congressperson to vote in a way that served me. As my plan evolved, I sometimes found it necessary to message the Senators about one issue, and the Congressman about a different one. This is how I began this journey on February 11:

Dear Senator (Congressman), The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was created by Congress. Only Congress can LEGALLY shutter it. In 13 years, the CFPB has returned 21 billion to consumersout of the pockets of Big Finance/CEOs. More than 6 million complaints have been addressed. Do you really stand for all your constituents, or only the big financial players? If you truly believe this bureau should be shut downshow some spinestand up with your peersin publicand explain to the public why you are against financial justice for your constituents. A question for you: Is this being done NOW because President Musk is entering the financial arena through his X platform and seeks to avoid all oversight? Either put your money where your mouth is and continue supporting your co-presidents, or stand for the majority of American who benefit from the actions of this agency. You decide!
Here's todays outreach:
August 12 (3-mails & calls)
Good morning Senator/Congressman Pedo Lover,
Are you enjoying your taxpayer-funded vacation? Do you feel you ought to do at least a little work, perhaps hold a town hall to converse with your constituents? I think they would have questions about the economy, tariffs, ICE raids, mass deportation, building Americas very own concentration camps. But atop the list remains the accountability questions regarding the Epstein/Maxwell matter. The more this remains on Americans mindswithout being transparently investigatedthe more the cover-up becomes conspiratorial. Your silence, your turning a blind eye sucks you into a conspiracy vortex. Were you on Epstein Island? Did you know someone who was? Did you get a nice massage at Maralargo? Did you know someone who did? Did you read the file compiled by the FBI in Florida or New York? Did you do ANY oversight? I think the Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP) response might extend to labeling them accessories after the fact. And thats a crime.
Ive found a few unexpected consequences of my actions. As I read the 5calls information, I can do my own research (following links to respected sites to learn more about the issue). I also find I incorporate this information into my very being, and thus am better equipped to argue, explain or understand issues. I generally compose my message in the evening for my early-morning action, and go to bed without fretting about what Ill address tomorrow morning. I cant say that having a task completed helps me sleep better, but if I ponder political/democratic matters as I try to drift off to slumber land, I dont have to include the matter Ive just marked off my to do list. Additionally, Ive discovered Im certainly not a single-issue voter. What began as a chore or a duty has evolved into a stress-reliever. I doubt that any one of my messages is ever listened to or read, but I feel better for having done something. My call does consume switchboard time, and creates a data point as they aggregate information about number of calls or issues addressed.
If anyone here is taking similar action, I would love to hear how you interact with elected officials. Perhaps YOUR message is better than mine, and I can certainly cut-and-paste to change my outgoing message. (Or better yet, I can actually make a second call and e-mail to these critters.)

My question today: How are you going to get back into Washington D.C. when your vacation ends to fulfill your official congressional duties? Apparently the city is so unsafe a military force is now needed to maintain safety. Will you have to apply for a military escort to get back to the halls of Congress? Maybe youll get a ride in a tank! Whooopee, thatll be fun, and itll only cost us (taxpayers) a pittance, right? Some advice: Make sure you are appropriately dressed and wearing your Congressional identification. And when you look at those military personnel protecting you, please consider how your policy decisions affect their concerns about inflation, retirement and healthcare benefits. Not many of them receive a $174,000 salary, plus perks, plus 5-10 weeks of vacation paid for by the taxpayers.

As a representative of the citizens of Florida, your silence regarding the Epstein/Maxwell debacle does not (or would not if they knew) endear you to the most of the citizens of the state. I dont know how many victims there werebut numbers range from 200 to 1000. Many were not citizens of Floridabut many were. Is this the kind of client service we can expect from you if/when we encounter a problem? Dumb question! Of course it is; otherwise, you would be leading by example and demonstrating that criminal behavior committed against a Florida resident merits your concern and action. Again, I suggest that if you are not anti-pedophilia and anti-sex trafficking, you should sponsor a bill to decriminalize these acts. President Pedo will appreciate that action, as will all pedophiles and sex traffickers.
Good morning Congressman Pedo Lover,
As a member of the House, Im surprised at how silent you have been regarding the alleged conduct of your Florida colleague, Congressman Cory Mills. With the allegations against him (revenge porn and non-payment of rent), the minimum you and your fellows should be doing is removing him from committees until the matter is resolved. It always raises a concern when silence may be considered to be a tit-for-tat non-action. Why are YOU staying silent?

I would ask what your plans are for this, another taxpayer-funded vacation day, but I think I know. Today, President Pedo, on behalf of the American people, is meeting with a war criminal, and I imagine you are glued to the media to see what areas of his meeting demand your vocalization and support. What is that saying about painting with a broad brush? Believe me, you are getting painted with it, and it isnt in a positive way. In the meantime, your silence on the Epstein/Maxwell matter is being noticed.

(175 posts)Good morning, Senator/Congressman Pedo Lover,
President Pedo is already lining up your work schedule anticipating your return from your taxpayer-funded vacation. He is seeking long-term extensions" from Congress to maintain control of D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department . . . stating you will approve this pretty much unanimously. Now Im sure hes encouraging you to do anything and everything to distract from the ongoing Epstein/Maxwell debacle, so I imagine you will seek lots of media time to explain the sudden need for this emergency extension. At least you wont have to work, or debate, or negotiate. Just line up, vote yes and spew propaganda toward any media that approaches you. Your constituents are truly impressed by all the hard work you do on our behalf.

Do you like the way President Pedo just continues to expand your salutation due to the fealty you demonstrate. From your refusal to expound on the Epstein/Maxwell child abuse/sex trafficking matter, to the non-existent reasoning used to turn the military loose on Washington, to Americas vicarious warm embrace of an indicted, wanted war criminal, you continue to disappoint. Leadership from the Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP)? Forget about it. You are either too busy enjoying your vacation or you are trying to deflect from your own complicit interaction with the corrupt, sex-abusing felon who heads your party to actually lead or serve your constituents. BTW, congrats on the successful summit between war criminal Putin and our own felonious president. You must be proud.

On August 11, the DWC wrote to Secretary Kristi Noem addressing violence against women by masked, unidentified ICE agents. This leads to public mistrust and enables impostors to carry out their schemes given the lack of uniformity in their masking practices. We demand that ICE agents visibly and clearly identify themselves when conducting immigration enforcement activities to stop enabling impersonators who leverage womens uncertainty and fear of immigration consequences to rape, harass, and abuse them. If Secretary Noem ignores this request, or refuses to act, I urge you to perform your congressional duty and create a bill providing this protection. You might also consider impeachment proceedings against Noem for failing to honor her oath and duty to the Constitution.

Since you seem intent on rubber-stamping any/all of President Pedos nominations that require senate confirmation, I know you will not listen when I ask you to vote no on nominee E.J. Antoni. While he has a Ph.D. from Northern Illinois Universitywhich is ranked 132nd in the world for economics excellence--he is not old enough to have garnered the experience needed to lead an agency. Despite the Hegseth, Noem, Kennedy, Lutnick, Bondi, Patel (need I go on) confirmations, and the resulting display of incompetence and corruption, I expect you to continue with your boot-licking, approval-seeking behavior. Your spinelessness does not go unnoticed. As the Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP) continue to spout their law-and-order bona fides, this particular candidate was present, and in all likelihood, participatory in the January 6 insurrection. That, too, will not go unnoticed. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Good morning Congressman Pedo Lover,
Still enjoying your extended, taxpayer-funded vacation? Has your leader, Moses Mike, contacted you to explore your legislative agenda for next month? I truly expect Moses Mike, in close communications with President Pedo, will direct you to do everything in your power to deflect or misdirect from the continuing Epstein/Maxwell debacle. Since you are not a lawyer, I would ask you to consult with your legal colleagues and ask this: Does moving the convicted child sex trafficker to a low security prison smack of witness tampering? And if so, isnt your Oversight Committee in charge of actually overseeing government agencies who may be involved in suspect behavior? Thank you for your attention to this matter.

How is your vacation going? I havent seen any notices that you are holding town halls or otherwise interacting with your constituents. They have concerns regarding tariffs, ICE raids, American concentration camps, healthcare, mass deportations, and more. Particularly, I believe they want answers regarding the Epstein matter, and the highly suspect relocation of a convicted child sex trafficker. The members of the Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP) are more interested in permitting or participating in crimes, cover ups and corruption than in providing oversight and accountability for their constituents. Silence is complicity. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

On Wednesday, 8/20, I heard President Pedo declare Netanyahu a war hero, and because he (President Pedo) provided armaments, he, too, is a war hero. Are you and your Guardians of Pedophiles colleagues in either house proposing a Purple Heart or a Congressional Medal of Honor for 5-deferment President Pedo? So far, you have demonstrated that whatever President Pedo asks for, you will bend over backwards to give him. How do you think other deserving medal recipients (past, present and future) will regard an action like this? Your constituents would like a voice in a decision like this. Quite frankly, I would urge you to wait until President Pedo is eligible for the Darwin Award. I think he would be a shoo-in for that. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The Congressional Budget Office reported on 8/15/2025 the federal budget deficits caused by President Pedo tax-cut-for-billionaires law could trigger automatic cuts to Medicare if Congress does not act. THE CBO estimates that Medicare could potentially see as much as $491 billion in cuts from 2027 to 2034 due to across-the-board cuts required when enacted legislation increases the federal deficit. Trump and the Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP) pledged not to cut this bedrock of the American social safety net. The GOP knew their tax breaks for billionaires would force over half a trillion dollars in Medicare cuts, but you voted for it anyway. Its time to demonstrate some bipartisan cooperation to mitigate the upcoming cuts to Medicare and other programs. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The Epstein/Maxwell matter is not going away. Many Americans consider child sex trafficking abhorrent. Perhaps the Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP) do not share that view. My question about your silence: Was moving Ghislaine Maxwell to minimum-security Club Fed prison an act of witness tampering? It would appear to me that if she is called by the government to testify, she has been paid in advance for whatever words spew from her mouth that benefit President Pedo and the corrupt DOJ participants who are ignoring or twisting the law. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

(175 posts)Dear Senators/Congressman Pedo Lover,
In April 2025, Ed Martin praised a 25% drop in violent crime rates in D.C. in 2024 and 2025. He attributed this decline to the leadership of President Trump." Now, in August 2025, Trump has negated the home rule D.C. enjoys, placing armed military on the streets of D.C. and placing the Metropolitan Police under his rule because of the violent crime emergency. If there is, indeed, such an emergency it has only arisen in the space of 3 months and lies directly at the feet of President Pedo, his congressional enablers and his 'Make D.C. Safe Again' initiative." Do something! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

(175 posts)Good morning Senator/Congressman Pedo Lover,
If you dont want to introduce a bill decriminalizing pedophilia and lowering the age of consent to 3, you might consider doing something that your constituents would support. Members of Congress, who are privy to insider information, should be prohibited from trading individual stocks while serving in Congress. This is a matter of public trust and aims to prevent corruption. The Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP) is already acknowledging that President Pedo defines corruption, and have told him that if such legislation is designed, he will be exempted from its reach. Its my understanding that Senator Rick Scottlike his leaderfeels there is no such thing as enough, and continues to benefit (profit) from insider information. And while we pay his salary, perks, healthcare and pension, he remains firmly on the side of taking healthcare away from vulnerable Americans, and free lunches away from children. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
