For most nonprofits, the most effective way to raise money is to spend time with individual donors. The least effective is to hold entertainment events: galas, golf, food/wine. If your event takes six months to plan and raises two months of budget, it’s a waste of time & effort.

Suspending that student from school may save their life. It could be the biggest back-handed favor ever. Maybe all the students can take pictures and post them and get suspended. It reminds me of someone who was fired from their job in the World Trade Centers on September 10, 01.

Here's something puzzling: it's illegal to have sex with someone underage, right? A baby with a teenage mom is DNA proof that a man had illegal sex with an underage girl. So why isn't anyone calling for the prosecution of men proven to be having sex with underage girls?

Good idea. We can’t have states deciding what should or shouldn’t be legal in another state. Is Texas going to jail their men for going to Nevada for legal sex with prostitutes? Doubtful. They just want to criminalize women’s choices. The Interstate Commerce Clause wants a word.

If you’re pro-life, ask why you want medical care decided & limited by politicians. Ask why you trust government to make decisions in all cases for all individuals under all circumstances. Assume that even laws you approve of can & will be turned against you & those you love. 17/

Great thread if you want to go into speaking. I’d add: spend some time learning to speak. Join Toastmasters for basic skills and National Speakers Association to learn how to upswell additional workshops and coaching.

Even if you’re pro-life in a pro-life state: realize that Big Government will seize the power you grant and then go further. You want abortion banned? They’ll do that & take away your right to get a D&C after a miscarriage, then they’ll arrest anyone who miscarries. 15/
