Watch: Johnson & Weld on CNN Now

Since we announced the launch of our #15for15 money bomb campaign to help get us in the presidential debates, we’ve already raised over $300,000 in about 24 hours...
Let’s not let up! Chip in $3 to help keep up the momentum.

Tonight, we are on the national stage for our second town hall with CNN.
Gary Johnson
This is a huge opportunity to prove to the American people that there is an alternative voice of reason to the Hillary v. Donald divisiveness that has consumed our political discourse.
Because of you, the mainstream media is starting to take notice.
Now, a broad and diverse spectrum of voters are being introduced to our campaign and learning that you can be socially tolerant AND fiscally responsible.

Tonight the nation will be watching OUR campaign. Send America a message!
Chip in $3 TODAY!
Remember, the rest of the media will primarily be paying attention to donations. No matter how big or small, please consider making a contribution right now.

We CAN reach our goal if enough of you stand up and demand a third voice.

We CAN have a debate that is more than Hillary calling Donald an egomaniac and Donald calling Hillary a crook.

We CAN introduce the American people to a real conversation.

You In?
Sincerely,

Gov. Gary E. Johnson

United States Adjustment to ISIS

  United States Adjustments to ISIS CJA/454 Robert L. Gilyard September 2, 2014 Gary Howard United States Adjustment to ISIS This paper is an analysis on ISIS terrorism and how the American criminal justice system can adapt to the rising trend of terror. Suggestions to change the situation, proposed changes, positive, and negative effect of the change examination. Explanation and proposed usage of criminal justice management support, financial, training, and human resources tools available to combat terrorism. Situation: ISIS ISIS is a new organization with origination from 2006’s Islamic State of Iraq (ISI). The disbanding of Al-Qaeda organizations and other terror groups combined their resources and financial avenues into a new terror group called ISIS.

Using Bin Laden’s terror playbook and how he used video and random acts of terror du...

fracking threatened my home and drinking water in upstate New York

Image
Black, As someone who has been active in the fight against fracking for nine years, I know how much it takes to stop the oil and gas industry from polluting the land and communities we love. Since I first learned that fracking threatened my home and drinking water in upstate New York,  I’ve been working with Food & Water Watch.  I've joined with them because they understand the power of community organizing to win campaigns. Please donate to Food & Water Watch to help continue their work to ban fracking everywhere! Food & Water Watch was the first national organization to call for a ban on fracking, even when no one thought it was possible.  They believe, as do I, that the power of people is unstoppable, and when we work together we can win. It takes a lot of work, but it can be done. In an age when many organizations focus most of their energy in online organizing, Food & Water Watch invests its time and energy into building up and w...

Jeff: We need Bill

Image
    Robert, If we take control of the Senate, we can block terrible right-wing judges and do serious investigations of the rampant corruption and possible collusion by the Trump team. But to take the Senate, we are going to have to win some tough races. Join me in supporting my friend and fellow Democrat, Florida U.S. Senator Bill Nelson. Bill's facing one of the worst candidates Florida has ever put on the ballot (and that's saying something!). Chip in $3 to support Senator Bill Nelson's re-election campaign. We need Bill Nelson in the Senate. And what we most certainly  do not  need is his opponent, Rick Scott, a right-wing, Trump-loving opportunist. Bill Nelson is a stalwart supporter of environmental protections, and clean air and water. Rick Scott is wrong on the environment. He backed oil drilling in the Everglades. Bill Nelson voted in favor of the Affordable Care Act. Rick Scott is a vocal critic of President Obama's signature health car...

Tom Harkin: support for Rep. Markey today.

Image
Dear Robert, Together you and I have made tremendous progress in raising awareness about the proposed cuts to Social Security known as the "chained CPI." I'm so proud of what we've accomplished, and I know that we will keep working to hold the line in the weeks and months to come. But right now, we have a major opportunity to make that firewall even stronger. We need to make sure Ed Markey joins me in the Senate by winning the Massachusetts special election in less than two weeks. Rep. Markey firmly opposes the chained CPI, and will stand with me to fight Social Security cuts that only serve to weaken the middle class.  He is the kind of proven progressive we need more of in the Senate, and I hope you'll join me in supporting his campaign today. Will you join me now and make an urgent contribution to Ed Markey's campaign? Ed's opponent, Gabriel Gomez, has vocally supported the chained CPI and believes we need to slash taxes even further f...

Martin: The Truth Behind "Sanctuary" Cities

Image
          : Over a hundred years ago, the racist anti-immigrant cartoonist, Thomas Nast, did his best to whip up anti-immigrant sentiment in the U.S.  The time was the 1880's. His cartoons portrayed the Irish as monkeys, Catholic Bishops as crocodiles climbing onto America's shores to eat up white Anglo-Saxon Protestant families, and hordes of lawless immigrants swarming off of boats to take up degenerate lives of crime in America's cities. Fast forward to the present. The Know-Nothing Party has finally taken the White House with Donald Trump's presidency. What is his top target where cities are concerned? Not infrastructure, bridges, jobs, schools, or restoring dwindling numbers of sworn officers on the streets, rather bringing "sanctuary cities under control" by cutting off any and all federal funding possible. If you are one of those Americans who works or lives in a metro area of the United States, you might scratch your head and ask: Wh...

Michael: March for Climate, Jobs, and Justice on April 29

Image
Robert l., The March for Climate, Jobs, and Justice on April 29 is an opportunity for us to show solidarity with each other in the fight for a clean environment and fair economy.  Too often, those seeking to block our progress try to pit jobs against safe workplaces and a clean environment.  We know that’s a false choice.  We know we can have economic prosperity, environmental justice and equity for all people if we take the right actions now to address climate change, reduce income inequality, fight for racial justice, and safeguard the rights of all people. We’re going to the March for Climate, Jobs and Justice to show our support for taking action on climate and creating and sustaining good jobs by doing so.  Join us at the March for Climate, Jobs and Justice.  Union members, environmentalists, people of faith and community leaders will be there to show the solidarity that exists between all of us to have both a strong, fair ...

Kirsten: Im ready to fight the Trump Country club Cabinet

Robert, I believe public servants should place the needs of others above partisan ideology and corporate profits. I have never seen anything like the extremism and disdain for working Americans shown by many of President Trump's Cabinet nominees.  They are determined to shutter public schools, cut Medicaid and Social Security, silence climate scientists and rip health care from tens of millions of Americans. I’m fighting back every day in the Senate. But as I take on President Trump’s country club Cabinet, I need to hear your priorities. What is most important to you as the Senate considers these nominations? Protecting our students? Addressing climate change? Defending health care?   Click here to share your concerns in a short survey. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Kirsten This email was sent to bondfilesinc@yahoo.com.

There’s no other way to say it. Today is a big day.

Image
It’s the day we officially celebrate breaking ground on the Obama Presidential Center. And we wouldn’t be here without the unwavering support of people like you—people who donated, volunteered, shared stories, and supported our vision all along the way. Of course, our work has never been just about a building. We are dedicated to helping  community leaders develop the skills they need and build the relationships that will empower them to change the world. That’s why President and Mrs. Obama took a moment yesterday, as part of our groundbreaking celebrations, to sit down with the latest cohort of Obama Foundation Scholars from the University of Chicago.  This inspiring group is working to increase diversity in Chicago’s technology sector, support women entrepreneurs in India, promote arts education that revitalizes neighborhoods, and much more.  We’re just getting started. There are wonderful things in store for the Obama Presidential Center and the young leaders it will s...

Al: won't be easy

Image
Dear Robert, What if there was a magic button that could overturn  Citizens United , get the word “SuperPAC” out of our national vocabulary, and drive shady money out of our political system forever? Wouldn’t you push the heck out of that button? Me, too. But there’s no such button. All we can do is fight as hard as we can to limit the influence of big money -- and one important step we can take is passing the DISCLOSE Act, a bill that would force special interest groups to tell us who’s funding their political activities. There’s no button we can push to make the DISCLOSE Act law. But there is a link you can click:  Click here to join us in calling on Congress to pass the DISCLOSE Act now! In the end, what we really need is a constitutional amendment to overturn  Citizens United  once and for all. But that’s an uphill battle. And the DISCLOSE Act would be an important first step up that hill. Requiring that special interest groups reveal where they get thei...

Ben: It's Time

Image
robert, On Monday, I will be announcing my decision of whether or not to run for President, so this will be the final email from my Exploratory Committee.   This period of time has been a learning process in regards to everything from the issues, to the concerns of my fellow citizens, to the depth of my support.   The results have been interesting, and very encouraging.   For example, a new study from Harvard’s Institute of Politics found that I am currently the top potential Republican presidential candidate among 18-to-29-year-olds.   I would hope that my optimistic message of personal empowerment is part of the reason.   In addition to this positive news,  close to 60,000 people just like you have donated to my exploratory committee since March   – an astounding number that I am deeply humbled by. As I have traveled around the country, your prayers, participation and  generous support  have sustained me. In fact, ...
