Working on the ties of Brian Kemp to the Dooley family. Why would Kemp do something to piss everyone off. The Trump team was pissed off with Kemp over the candidate picked in Georgia’s state GOP primary battle. There was a deal in Valdosta. Remember that every endorsement Mike Collins receives is a push back to Brian Kemp. These are signals for Dooley not to jump in the race. As Kemp warned to donors to rally behind former college football coach Derek Dooley’s impending US Senate campaign has already taken a bite out of his GOP rivals fundraising efforts.
Remember Sea Island and Kemp likes to bring in the big guns, Kemp has these private Sea Island with the big donors. Kemp hangs out with the world elite money people, his trips to Davos, etc. Kemp has been telling donors to hold off and that he has been working with the White House. Derek Dooley is a family friend, it has nothing to do with winning and beating Jon Ossoff. Brian Kemp is prepared to take the loss. It was very ugly at the White House. Mike Collins has been loyal to Trump and the America First agenda, not Brian Kemp. Mike Collins will go to DC and he will run with the Trump agenda. Brian Kemp got into a pissing match at the White House.
Buddy Carter is irrelevant. But Derek Dooley has never run for office but he will back Trump in DC. If Derek gets in the race he will have to answer for his voting record, why he voted D instead of R. Everyone thought Kemp liked Mike Collins. Why can’t we get go with Mike Collins. Brian Kemp stood his ground that he will not back Mike Collins. Nick Saban has a home in Rabun county, Derek Dooley also has a home there. Nick Saban made a phone call to ask Trump to support Dooley. Kemp is really pushing this guy. Derek Dooley is not in the race yet.
This Senate race they are talking about Ossoff and the republican being a $500 million dollar race, setting records. This is a business. It is not about winning and losing.
We have Brian Kemp, Marty Kemp and the girls. Let's just say Kemp tells the donors to stand down. What if one of the girls handles campaign donations. There is a business out there that one of the girls works in. Brian Kemp can’t think that Dooley can win and beat Ossoff in the most expensive Senate race. But what if $100M goes through a donation arm and the daughter gets a percentage.
MTG says she is out of the governor's race. Remember she said she wasn’t running for Senate and gave all the reasons. Then she gave a very governor state centered speech at the State Convention. The reason she is not running is because Burt Jones went to Donald Trump. MTG was the first one to come out to eliminate state income tax. Then she did polling and who grabbed it. Burt Jones grabbed it as a campaign theme. Burt Jones’ dad gave Donald Trump a lot of money and believes he will get the red hat. MTG can’t win a statewide race. Burt Jones put the block on the red hat. She wanted to be governor. MTG thinks she has come full circle as a congresswoman.
To replace Mike Collins in the 10th district is Houston Gaines, a Brian Kemp move. Kemp wants John Kennedy to be Lt governor. Kemp wants a SOS to control in Tim Fleming.
The Frost family used people and took advantage of them by using christianity, patriotism and the republican party. Brant IV does not hold any GOP position anywhere. But the mother, Krista Frost (state committee member, second vice chair of Coweta county, 3rd District committee member) and the son Brant V (state committee member and Coweta County Chair) and the daughter Katie Frost (3rd District Chair, state executive committee member). Of all people the chair of the Georgia republican party, Josh McKoon should come out publicly saying this is not who we are and it is not acceptable to remove the three Frost family members from any position of the GAGOP 100% to send a message that we would never uphold manipulating senior citizens. GA republicans rush to return First Liberty donations but the majority of funds are still missing. First Liberty targeted right-win and Christian groups and touted efforts to fund food pantries, a crisis intervention program for middle school boys and other good works. You will hear that these people gave them the money, and why did these people give them all their money. The frost family preyed on the people and give them the Chrisitan values while stealing their money. They delivered to their investors that they were republican and christians and patriots.
The Receiver has already done interviews and says “So most of all the victims are either in politics or very faith-based investors, and all of them that I talked to were influenced by the charitable giving and the feel-good side of the company.” Calling it affinity frauds based on certain groups such as republican and faith based. Remember that Josh McKoon defended Brant Frost when David Cross called Brant V was a cancer on the republican party. Then they set up the 3rd District Candidate Forum with Katie Frost as the moderator. Not one of the GAGOP officials has stood up to oust the Frost family. The Receiver is telling you that he sees the manipulation of the people to defraud them from their money.
We have had silence from people in high offices. There should be politicians all across the state saying that republicans don’t act like this. There should be a forensic audit of the GAGOP. We know the state of Alabama has an investigation, the FBI are involved, the GA SOS is investigating. We know the SEC is investigating. There are new stories coming out everyday. The silence is complicit in not condoning what has been done to the victims. The head investigator says First Liberty victims put everything into investments tied to Ponzi schemes. Investigators are thinking that the number is much higher than 300 investors and spread across 10 states. Most of the investors are elderly and lost everything. This is the largest fraud investigation in the state of Georgia.
The GAGOP can run full defense when they want too. The second vice chair of the Gwinnett County GOP, Courtney is one of Charlie’s kids. She is part of the team. It is understood that the county party wants to get rid of her. She gets wind that they are trying to get rid of her. She calls in reinforcements, Salleigh Grubs, Travis Bowden and more. Now they will spend more time protecting their own rather than protecting the victims of the Frost family.
