It is very strange. I've been politically moderate for 15+ years, but by today's standards that makes me look like a conservative because I believe in: · parents' rights to be informed about and involved in decisions about their children's health · the need for taxpayer-funded homeless assistance to include accountability and true measures of success for rehabilitating lives (instead of just providing free housing and enabling people to continue destroying their lives with drugs) · school choice so that parents will be able to apply taxpayer funds to whichever school they choose for their children · protecting children from age-inappropriate sexualization such as keeping pornographic, erotic books out of taxpayer funded schools · prohibiting abortion after 16 weeks and aiming to reduce the overall number of abortions through providing increased access to better options · using real consequences to teach children how to be kind, productive members of society (instead of using the excuse of "trauma" to justify violence and bullying behaviors) · ensuring that children learn the skills they need before they are advanced to the next grade (instead of social promotion wherein kids are moved to the next grade regardless of readiness, thus ensuring they will fall further and further behind over time when they cannot keep up) · teaching kids the importance of the US Constitution and the founding principles that made America uniquely successful · securing the border to curtail the rush of drugs and human trafficking into our country (while providing mechanisms for legal immigration) · ensuring that only US citizens can vote in elections and people show an ID when they vote to ensure security of elections · using the criminal justice system to ensure dangerous criminals have consequences for their actions (instead of catch-and-release) while also finding better ways to get people with mental health problems and drug addiction into the treatment they need · protecting our essential freedoms as laid out in the Bill of Rights, including the rights to free speech and the right to bear arms · focusing on teaching kids reading/writing/arithmetic instead of indoctrinating them into a particular ideology or party · prohibiting the mutilation and sterilization of children · health freedom to make our own choices about which medical treatments and foods we take into our bodies

5 ESSENTIAL REMEDIES FOR COLD AND FLU SEASON 🤧🤧🤧: These five remedies are useful at the beginning of a cold/flu, when the symptoms are still developing.

🤩🤩🤩GOOD NEWS AND THANKS!!! A few months ago, we asked for your help in encouraging Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham to opt New Mexico into the Federal Scholarship Tax Credit. This program allows private citizens to donate to approved scholarship-granting organizations and get a dollar-for-dollar tax credit up to $1,700. Many of you emailed the Governor to ask her to opt-in so we wanted to share the good news with you: NEW MEXICO HAS NOW OPTED IN TO THE FEDERAL SCHOLARSHIP TAX CREDIT! By opting our state in, more NM students will gain access to scholarships for tutoring, private school, school supplies, after-school programs, and other critical academic supports. Your efforts made a difference! Thank you! LEARN MORE HERE: nmfa.us/post/good-news-thank… @PaulRunko @DefendingEd

This investigation needs to include districts all over the state, including Las Cruces.

🌄🌧🥶HIKING IN THE CLOUDS! We had a fun-but-grueling 10+mile hike to Organ Peak, ascending to over 8,500 feet! We were on the trail for 9 hours and expected amazing views from the top, but instead all we could see was clouds! We explored around the old airplane crash and military observatory, but then ran out of time to climb the rest of the peak (and we couldn't even see it as the clouds were so dense up there). The waterfall at Filmore Canyon was a nice treat before we started the steep trails. We finally saw some blue sky on the way back down, but the clouds were still just sitting right on top of the mountains. We'll have to try again another day.

😫😲😍WHY I *STOPPED* PUSHING IN OUR HOMESCHOOL: After just a couple years, our homeschool was struggling. My 6yo daughter, who had started out so eager, was starting to hate math and writing. Our relationship was suffering, too, from negative interactions around school work. Here's how I found a BETTER PATH that has now worked for over 10+ years of homeschooling. 👇👇👇 nourishedandnurturedlife.com…

😰😰😰ANTICIPATORY ANXIETY REMEDIES: Life gets stressful sometimes, but homeopathy can help! Here is information about the top 4 remedies that can help with anticipatory anxiety for worries over upcoming events such as tests, performances, competitions, ceremonies, or medical procedures. My healthcare clients have reported that these remedies work well to calm their nerves. I've experienced that myself, too, such as when I've had nervousness in advance of giving public speeches or presentations. These remedies have also worked well for my kids, in advance of their concerts, tests, and performances.

🎃🎃🎃Peace, motorcycles, and masquerade! My family is feeling traumatized by my big blond hair, haha! 🤣 Have fun, everyone!

❌🧐❌WHY I'M NOT VOTING FOR DEB HAALAND: Even though I'm registered as a Democrat, I will NOT be voting for Deb Haaland for NM Governor. Here's why: 1. Deb Haaland supports "gender affirming care" and will continue hiding children's gender confusion from parents. 2. Deb Haaland will continue using NM tax dollars to pay for cross-sex hormones and puberty blockers for children down to 12 years old (which can be facilitated via school-based health centers with NO parental consent). Cross-sex hormones and puberty blockers cause irreversible harms and have known risks including increased risks of STERILITY, heart problems, cancer, osteoporosis, bone fractures, sexual dysfunction, and a lifetime of remorse. 3. Deb Haaland will not uphold our rights for medical freedom (and in 2021 she forced educators at the Bureau of Indian Education to take COVID injections or be fired).

😳😳😳PARENTS: LOOK! THEY ARE DIRECTING TEACHERS AND SCHOOL STAFF TO "UNGENDER" THEIR LANGUAGE AND HIDE CHILDREN'S GENDER CONFUSION FROM PARENTS! This is the training given to school staff in Albuquerque Public Schools. The full slide deck and training transcript are part of the new lawsuit filed by school social worker Jeanette Martinez against Albq Public Schools. libertycenter.org/cases/mart… Affirmation of social transition (using preferred pronouns, changing gender identification, etc) is NOT harmless. It sets the stage for irreversible harms via puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, which can be facilitated WITHOUT parental consent via the school-based health centers because of the 2023 HB7 law. ‼️‼️‼️If you know any parents in the APS district who want to get involved in this lawsuit, please let me know or have them reach out to me directly. @Liberty_Ctr @DefendingEd @IWF @IWN @ThorntonforNM @Lord4NM @libsoftiktok @dowfornm @BenLuna4US @paul_s_martin76 @nmx575 @RepBlock @ElectJayCBlock @NMSenate_GOP @NMHouseGOP @NewMexicoGOP @RamonaG554378 @YvetteNary @Better2GetherNM @RealFFU @ConceptualJames @unopablocy60 @LoganLancing @Xalvinlui @Jenn_McW @iamlisalogan @CourageHabit @CindyLuCanner @RioGrandeFndn @pgessing @PaulRunko @KristyBorregoOj
