Rule changes at the RINO Party of Florida

or State Statute violations?

Did your State Committeeman, State Committeewoman, and Chair vote against your values and interests in the recent and potentially unlawful RINO Rules changes at the RPOF?

This is a summary from the RPOF, of what the Rule change attempts to do…

What the new rules essentially create:

The new rules create a 2 meeting attendance rule for prospective members where they shall be voted upon (up or down) at the second meeting they attend, assuming they have been a Republican for 365 days.

I have also heard a rumor that the RPOF voted to mandate “every other month meetings”. I have not found any truth in that yet, but sometimes reading rules from the RPOF reads like “stereo instructions”. If they were to adopt such a rule, it would violate the same statute, and for the same reason. Also, if/when I do find it, I will update this article right here.

So, the question is, does it violate the statute, or is it just really bad strategy for the Republican Party, heading into an existential election? I believe it to be both, and I believe any judge or jury acting in good faith would agree. So, let’s look at the law…

Florida State Statute
103.091 Political parties.—
(5) In the event no county committeeman or committeewoman is elected, or a vacancy occurs from any other cause in any county executive committee, the county chair shall call a meeting of the county executive committee by due notice to all members, and the vacancy shall be filled by a majority vote of those present at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Such vacancy shall be filled by a qualified member of the political party residing in the district where the vacancy occurred and for the unexpired portion of the term.

This means that whenever a vacancy occurs, the county chair is required to call a meeting with at least 10 days notice (assuming one is not already imminently scheduled) to fill the vacancy by majority up or down vote at that meeting. Not 4 months later. It stands to reason that if you had to call a meeting to fill a vacancy, then you have to swear in that member at that meeting, not a future meeting. “I call for a meeting to satisfy 103.091P5, to fill vacancies, but not swear them in, as the law demands” just doesn’t make any logical or legalese sense. It’s pretty easy to tell when a new rule is about retaining control, rather than fixing a legitimate problem.

And, just to be clear, there will ALWAYS be a vacancy. It would be an improbability, if not an impossibility to have all 1158 positions filled in Lee, and not have at least 1 person drop off the rolls due to death, relocation, resignation, or removal for lack of attendance. So, we need to have meetings scheduled every month, or we will be forced by statute to be calling for meetings anyway. It’s just less confusing to have them scheduled every month.

In fact, one motion on the proposed amended agenda deals with exactly that. Monthly meetings every month, unless the Executive Committee votes to suspend the following month’s meeting for cause. For instance, November’s meeting would always be the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. You know, when everyone’s racing to Publix or Winn Dixie to grab the last bird in the cooler. Or, the day you’re flying to Aunt Susie’s up north. Same thing in December, too. In that instance, the REC would vote in October to suspend the November and December meetings. That should be the only example of 2 months in a row, though. July is traditionally a month that we don’t hold meetings either. First, there’s Independence Day, and in the past, a large percentage of members were Snowbirds, and went north for the summer. But, with the influx of so many younger members, I don’t believe that’s as big of an issue. At any rate, once passed, we will cross those bridges as we come to them. Any member would simply make a motion under New Business to suspend next month(s) meeting(s).

But, back to the rule changes… The RPOF CANNOT demand that REC members violate their oath of office and violate state statutes. Not only do the RPOF members have a duty to uphold their oath, each of us has a duty to uphold our oaths, AND refuse to allow them to pressure us to violate those oaths. If we allow this, we are just as culpable as they are. And, I can tell you, we will be exposing the names of those who voted for this. A member recently pointed out to me that in the military, if you left your footlocker unlocked, and someone stole something from it, you received the same punishment as they did. Because you allowed it to happen.

For new members… they tried this in Lee and other counties last year. Dr. Sansone and I pushed back in Lee. Some counties stopped it, others weren’t able to. And, what is the RINO’s answer to us demanding that they follow the RPOF rules??? Shell games? Change the rules and hope nobody noticed the statute?

This is like when the democrats lose, but keep coming back to accomplish their agenda, over and over, until eventually they get a win. It’s a war of attrition. These people actually ask why I call them RINO’s? We hold these truths to be self evident.

And, why would the RPOF want to limit meetings, and stop new membership, anyway? Wouldn’t they put our shared conservative principles and the Party’s interests above their own greed, power and control? We have important issues at hand, and Florida’s 2024 Presidential Preference Election is less than a year away. Out of one side of his mouth, the chair says he’s all for resolutions, out of another side, he says we need to be working on elections, not resolutions, and out of yet another side, he says we need to go to every other month meetings, until nobody questions his behavior. I hope those new French Doors are 8’ tall, so his ego can fit through. We need to put a stop to this behavior, once and for all. Tell them we no longer will accept them turning our Party into a partner in the Uniparty. We can no longer accept merely being controlled opposition. We are in an existential crisis. I doubt I need to convince anyone of that. And, we’re not going to fix these problems by simply fundraising for more RINO candidates (which actually is NOT a proper function of an REC, anyway), and meeting as few times as possible throughout the year. I get that with all the painful turmoil in recent meetings, it might be tempting to say that we’d rather not be here. But, that’s not going to effect the change that is needed. We need actual opposition to the systematic destruction of both society, and the human race.

• Stolen elections.

• Invisible, or non-existent borders.

• The moral decay.

• The destruction of our economy, and our monetary system.

• And, now, the extinction of 90% of humanity with bioweapons.

• Add insult to injury… harsh punishment for questioning their bad behavior.

• Unconstitutional Carry, instead of Constitutional Carry?

• Felonies for questioning election results?

• No ID required for voters over 65?

• A utility bill now counts as proof of eligibility to vote (as if only citizens have electricity)?

• Home-Owner Insurance Providers are now allowed to jack your insurance premiums every year with little or no limit, which equates to skyrocketing insurance rates? They won’t even have to foreclose to steal our homes. People will simply not be able to afford the insurance, and be forced to answer one of the 20 spam calls per day to buy up our homes.

Thanks a lot, DeepSantis. Klaus Schwab must be very proud of you. By 2030, we really will own nothing… that is, if the jab or an illegal alien hasn’t already taken us out of the game by then. The list of bad legislation out of this past session from our so-called “Super-MajoRINOity” Legislature is unprecedented. It is despicable what is being done by our own party, in our name.

Power is a drug.
