Brian Kelly for Congress 2022

By Brian Kelly

Congress 2022; 8th Congressional District from Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania needs a fresh face that loves America more than politics.

The political game is rigged by politicians to favor the politicians. That's why most people opt to stay out of the game.  Besides your chances being minimized by professionals, it takes too much money to win. Like most Pennsylvanians, I have only enough money to live so I decided to run as a write-in for the United States Congress as a JFK-like Democrat. The incumbent against whom I am running in five terms has worn out his welcome in the 8th Congressional District in PA.

In two other political campaigns in which I engaged, the deck was stacked against me even though in total I spent only about $7,000 in both a bid for Congress and a bid to become Mayor of my home town. For me folks, like you, I suspect, that is a lot of money My plan was to spend as little as possible on my campaigns. I have a lot to offer but money is not my best asset.

For my congressional campaign this go around, I will not spend as much for ads and for benches and for yard signs and cards etc. I may spend nothing. I am 74-years old, feeling kinda spry for my age, but I cannot waste a dime. Therefore, I will have to find every means possible without spending money to be able to point out the issues I hope to solve and to explain the specific platform to bring home those solutions.

You can learn everything about me in this book including how I am a JFK-Democrat and what differentiates me from my primary opponent, who you have my permission to call an American Marxist.

I am not a fool, but most would say my quest for office is a fool's errand. Try running for office in a state such as Pennsylvania, in which the political incumbents and the establishment have the game 100% rigged. It is 100% in their favor. Corrupt state politicians in all 50 states, and PA, have slanted the ballot-access table in favor of incumbents and against non-political regular citizens of America such as me and such as you when you decide you have had enough. By the way when you become inclined to throw your hat in the ring, I will be there to encourage you. If not us, fellow citizens, then whom—a politician—Really???

Using my experience and having studied the issues as a basis, I write things down  to help identify and remind me of all the issues we have to keep elections honest. I believe it is good when all the people and all the potential candidates understand the reality of restrictive ballot access laws and what one must do to comply with them and /or get around them. For me, I write books to describe my unique platform for Pennsylvania and America in detail.

For you, if you ever choose to run for office, it will serve as an effective learning tool and a how-to guide. What I write and what you read from me contains a lot of great platform information, a great announcement speech,  and a lot of helpful stuff that you can use in your campaign when you decide to give it a go. In the mean-time, we cannot afford to let lots of incumbents back into office to serve another term on our dime.

Book preview

Chapter 1  What a Crazy Mixed Up Biden World?

Matt Cartwright chooses to not make it any better.

Matt Cartwright is not getting good PR from the local radio stations in his home town. They asked him about a busload of immigrants that took off from the local airport after arriving in the dead of night like as if on a spy mission. Cartwright had nothing to say. They just checked the voting records of those who voted to take Fentanyl off the Schedule 1 Narcotics list downgrading this nasty substance. All Democrats including Cartwright voted to downgrade this deadly substance. Why? He did not say.

From day one President Biden has shown nothing but disdain for the sound principles developed and executed in four years by Donald Trump. Like Trump or not, Democrat or Republican;  Trump’s principles were sound and the country was hopping and jumping in a fast moving positive spiral—other than the resistance—COVID-19 of course.

Biden actually doesn’t see that he has done anything wrong as president and would be more inclined to brag about his accomplishments than to bemoan himself with excuses. Besides the stopping of the flow of gas and oil from the Keystone Pipeline, President Biden done damage simply by inhaling. 

Whenever he signs an executive order or gives a speech, somebody else pays a big price for it. How about allowing millions of migrants to enter the country illegally across our Southern border? Who does that help? Nobody today but Democrats are hoping these new visitors will be able to vote soon as the Democrats have plans to never give up power. Admittedly, they are questioning whether Biden will last a full term.  

Most people in the US see it for what it is. They are not confused by the leftist media’s bull puckey. Though they preach a different tune, there is no doubt that the most important border for the US is not Ukraine’s border but America’s border.  While Democrats deflect, Republicans are simply much more lame than need-be on the issue.

Republicans are outnumbered in the House and they might as well be in the Senate.  It is much more than their lack of power to fight the Democrats on solving the problems Biden is causing. It is more a matter of will. Republicans seem to have no will to fight anybody on anything.

More and more Americans are echoing that before Joe Biden sends any troops to defend a border in Europe, or any place else, he should be sending troops to defend our border right here in America. We cannot sustain the flow of illegals into the country.  Republicans are mostly silent.

If the next thing that Biden did for Americans brought peace, tranquility and prosperity to the US, which is highly unlikely given his one year record of chaos all the time, it would be the first thing that he has done right.  Can you believe there are still so many Americans in Afghanistan but the corrupt press no longer talks about them. It is like they are gone and forgotten. All of these things will be compelling issues for the fall election. Will the GOP marshal the courage to fight the big fight? Biden’s policies reveal issues that touch one of the great and deepening divides of our time. Think about it

Which matters more—the defense of our country from an invasion of migrants from the Third World, or the defense of the borders of distant nations that have little or nothing to do with the security or survival of the United States? Patrick Buchanan asked just the other day, Why should who rules the Russified Donbas be America’s concern? Good question, Patrick.

Somehow though out of power, it seems Republicans have taken the year off and maybe they’ll even take the next. Most people don’t miss them. This border issue is a big Republican issue but where are they and what are they doing about it. Nothing!  They should be harping on it every day.

We are in crisis with border crossers seen every day. The people know that these mostly young men, will likely contribute to the crime crisis of shootings and killings plaguing America’s cities. Depending what city you live in, the Biden crime wave makes the border situation even worse.

Why can’t the US take care of ourselves first?  While Western elites, including the US, seem alarmed about the borders of Ukraine and the Kremlin being ready for war. most of Europe is more concerned about itself. It worries about its moral, cultural and demographic decline—abortion, LGBT rights, low birth rates and even the death of Christianity. Europe is not doing so well. Inflation, higher taxes, and expensive gasoline and heating fuels are the big priorities for Americans. 

Why should the US or the inhabitants of these European nations care about the borders of other countries when their own issues loom so large?  Good question. Congress has no answers. Their toilet-level approval ratings show the people’s response to their indifference. 

From January 20, 2021 and going past his first month in office. President Biden showed that with over 40 executive orders, he was definitely pursuing an American Marxist oriented far left agenda. Pundits against the actions by the president suggest that it is Biden’s attempt to govern the country by executive fiat, rather than let the Congress make the laws. Those watching the small amount of reporting from the main stream media see this as very, very dangerous Biden’s radical policies clearly threaten America’s normal way of life and democracy itself.

So, why so bleak? Just look at what the President has done. He;s killed energy jobs; he’s killed the whole energy sector in the United States. He essentially did that all that on day one. Think of all the good-paying American jobs that were immediately lost and how much such largesse will cost?

Besides economic items such as the skyrocketing inflation rate, Biden is fixed on everything radical such as his preemptive actions with women's sports and across the board.  Like as if it were OK, the President signed almost forty executive orders, actions and directives in his first nine days.  He was a man with a mission to untrump" the country – even things that Trump had done well were axed.

After so many radical actions, the forecast was more, more, and more as Biden’s team said their early moves were just previews of the agenda items the president planned to push through Congress as Republicans railed against the record-making flurry of orders.

Just hours after he took the oath of office, Biden got his pen out and immediately signed 17 executive actions—ranging from reversing former President Trump’s policies to restoring Obama-era programs, the coronavirus pandemic and more. Good bad, or indifferent if it was a Trump program, it is now gone.

Since then, Biden has taken nearly two dozen additional actions— focused on environmental regulations, the supposed climate crisis, immigration policies, racial justice, healthcare, and even more. Will the US ever be able to recover from Joe Biden?  Here we are a year later and things could not be worse.

Senator Josh Hawley is a one man fact checker on Biden and he said that it was breathtaking to see what Biden was doing without Congress' approval. 

Remember, he wasted no time as it was on his first day in office that Biden signed an executive order to halt the construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline, which was meant to transport Canadian crude oil to the U.S., citing climate change. Poof!  The move eliminated an estimated 11,000 U.S. jobs – including 8,000 union jobs – the project would have sustained in 2021.

Voters are correct: Biden is also to blame for inflation

Inflation is soaring, and naturally voters blame President Biden.   Look at all of his hate-America policies.  Voters are 100% correct. In a poll, near the end of 2021, 62 percent of registered voters believed that Biden’s policies are to blame for rising prices on everything from turkeys to gasoline to apartment rents.  They should because his decisions are definitely responsible.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics recently reported that  Inflation climbed 6.2% in October 2021, the largest increase in 30 years, amid supply chain backlogs.  Everybody has seen the hundreds of container ships with Christmas presents for Junior treading water waiting for the go-ahead sign which would not come.

It is intentional policy decisions like Keystone and it is the Biden huge share of policy blunders perpetrated by the Biden White House. They have taken a bad problem and made it worse.

Why are oil prices higher?  Two reasons!  First, U.S. production has declined by about two million barrels per day since 2019, even as demand has recovered from the COVID-19-induced downturn. Oil markets are global, so the fall-off in output would not necessarily jack prices up, but our declining output needs to be offset by an increase elsewhere.

So OPEC is at fault?  It has not restored output to the level necessary to bring down prices, despite Biden’s begging. Meanwhhile, the president himself has done a lot to discourage a resurgence in U.S. drilling and production. What should he expect by canceling pipelines, threatening oil and gas producers with higher taxes, taken promising acreage out of play, such as the Arctic Natural Wildlife Refuge, slow-walked leasing and new drilling permits and, most recently, imposed new methane-curbing rules that make drilling more expensive.

The public is not made up of petroleum experts but ever we see what is going on. In fact, ask yourself, what sensible person would invest in the oilfield in the face of such unrelenting hostility? Drilling activity is up, but nowhere near where it should be at $82 per barrel oil. The price is about to hit the moon.

More inflation came from housing. As the migration from masked and mandated states such as New York, and New Jersey and Illinois, to freer climates, another  boost to inflation came from the migrants’ demand for housing. With shelter accounting for some 40 percent of the CPI, economists have warned that fast-rising home prices would eventually seep into higher inflation readings. By October, this occurred. The increase in the cost of shelter rose to 0.5 percent from September, an annualized rise of 6 percent. Biden can’t do anything right but worse than that, it seems like it is all intentional.

Among other miscues, Biden does not even try to control the Fed, but he has made no secret of his preference for the easy money policies that have helped prop up the economy, and the stock market. Biden is replacing the Fed Chair soon. His only candidates so far send a clear signal. He will choose growth over stability, even if it means that inflation continues to accelerate. Yes, he will keep being blamed for inflation because he more than any other force is causing it big time.

Joe Biden has become a human pinata. Even Democrats do not hesitate to take whack to see if he will fall apart.  I thought of the term myself without help but when I looked it up, the notion had been already taken by somebody else. Biden is a human pinata and he will continue to be one until he steps down.

Think about such a gentle man ahem who when he debated Kamala Harris would have the grace to tell her:  Go Easy On Me Kid!  She did not and nobody since has either as more and more find him as the source, not the solution to the country’s problems.

Biden is clearly the President. Unfortunately.  He no longer has a target on his back. His whole self is the target.  He has completely turned into a human pinata. Today because of his buffoon style of leadership. beating up on Biden is the best way to appeal to the country’s desire for revenge against his policies. Somebody needs to be blamed and Biden is the right man for he is the culprit responsible for all the problems.

Look what he has done to everybody in America. He does have the option to decide to be a better man. That would be the best solution. However, he would have to check with President A.O.C. before taking action.

Cartwright: Pelosi’s San Francisco’s values, not Pennsylvania’s

Cartwright: 100% for Pelosi & Squad's crazy Marxist policies.

Matt Cartwright thinks Joe Biden is doing a fine job. Do you?

When have you last seen Cartwright in your neighborhood?

Matt Cartwright & the Dems are for Crime (Defund the Police)

Matt Cartwright and the Dems lie all the time How do I know?

Their lips are moving

The Congressional Leadership Fund says to cover up his  ethics scandal. He’s now lying to the press (and voters) to cover it all up. Last sound bite: Turns out Cartwright isn’t just a crook, he’s a liar too

Democrats lie all the time. Here are some of their favorites:

––––––––

1. The Republican tax cuts didn’t cut taxes. 2. We have direct evidence of Trump-Russian collusion. 3. You can keep your doctor. It’s easier to get a Glock than a library book. 4. Mitt Romney murdered a lady. 5. I did not have sexual relations with that woman.

Unlike Cartwright, Kelly will crack down on illegal immigration, fight against Biden tax increases, 100 for Second Amendment, Help for small businesses against  government overspending.

Cannot trust the Biden Government to do right thing?

Biden’s higher taxes & costly regulations

Biden lied.  He put his family honor on the line, tweeting: I give you my word as a Biden: If you make under $400,000 a year, I’ll never raise your taxes one cent. But now that the official non-partisan congressional scorekeepers have reviewed Biden’s tax legislation, we know that the president’s pledge fails a fact check. Millions of middle-class families will see their tax burden grow in 2023 if not sooner.

Biden destroyed American energy independence

Shut down the Keystone Pipeline

Canceled oil & gas exploration in the Artic

Opened Russian Pipeline & closed Keystone
