Dear CARMA Members and other Honorable Conservative Gentlemen,
Please join us and bring your buddies to our monthly CARMA luncheons and events. Register early at www.carmagop.com. We have great monthly, delicious, luncheons at Giuseppe’s Italian Restaurant with speakers on various topics such as: local, state and national politics, health care, history, local government operations and technology. Our local office holders and candidates and other interesting speakers are always on our schedule. CARMA is a great source for politics and it donates to Republican candidates smartly.
Our previous luncheon was on Thursday, Jan 16th and our speaker was Dianna Moorman, JCC Director of Elections. Our February 20th speaker will be Kim O’Brien Root, Editor of The Virginia Gazette. The VG printed our luncheon group photo again and sometimes letters from our members. Join us for the photos.
CARMA’s March 20th luncheon will have as featured speaker Virginia Delegate Amanda Batten, who will review what happened during the recent session in Richmond. Delegate Chad Green will be our speaker on April 17th. Please attend these luncheons, enjoy the fellowship and food and ask tough questions. Our luncheons are on the 3rd Thursday monthly.
Visit www.carmagop.com early each month to see the menu, choose your meal and make reservations. Mail your choice and check asap. If you wait too long to notify us, you may only get a roll and have to beg some bites from another member. Giuseppe’s kitchen needs your choices early.
The CARMA Happy Hours have been fun. We need to schedule another Happy Meetup soon. Contact me if you wish to attend and have a preferred time and location. Family and friends are always invited. Our discussions are riveting, hilarious and free. Watch for CARMA emails.
Other Events: At the January 14th JCC Board of Supervisors meeting, Steve Mains, Jenny Mains, Susan and Marvin Franz and I briefly spoke to the supervisors and expressed the county-wide criticism about the large county property tax increase. Jay Everson also attended, as usual. JOIN US…February 26th is the next WJCCRC meeting at the WJCCRC headquarters at 6935 Richmond Road in Lightfoot.
Comments: I am so very thankful for the Trump/Vance/Musk MAGA victories. I hope their teams expose, correct, and prosecute the anti-American leaders and their unconstitutional acts. Go DOGE.
CARMA Board Members’ Favorite Orders and Actions by President Trump:
Cary T - Pardoning the pro-life activists and the J6 hostages. Shutting down DEI.
George S - Rescinding scores of Biden orders, establishing DOGE, Securing our borders,
correcting foreign aid, enforcing the Hyde Amendment, Protecting children from mutilation,
Ending indoctrination in K-12 schools. Colleges next? Closing down USAID absurdities.
Bob D - Shut down the Dept of Ed, Deport illegal immigrants, Pink slip useless federal employees.
Steve M - Saved women's sports, Pardoned pro-lifers, Shut down DEI
Norb S - All of them!!! (I bet Norb can recite the exact directive numbers of each Executive Order.)
Chuck C - All plus Expand GITMO and fill it with the thieves, corrupt officials and very bad illegals.
Now gentlemen…catch your breath now because 2025 will be another difficult election year here locally and statewide. We will need to elect these great Republicans: Winsome Sears for Governor, our own fellow member John Curran for Lt. Governor and Jason Miyares for Attorney General. Also we need to re-elect State Delegates Amanda Batten and Chad Green. And there will be two JCC Board of Supervisors seats and two JCC School Board seats to be filled. Please step up to be an active CARMA member recruiter and public advocate for our 2025 candidates. Attend the candidates’ fundraisers and write support letters to the Virginia Gazette. Urge your neighbors and friends to vote. Action, Action, Action.
BE A PATRIOT. VOLUNTEER. PRAY and HOPE. DONATE.
