Help Angel and Ken Harrelson and the January 6 Families— Following up on Angel Harrelson’s Talk at Manatee Patriots on January 4, 2022
When Angel Harrelson, wife of January 6 prisoner Ken Harrelson, spoke at MP January 4, she gave us several actions we can take to help the January 6 prisoners and their families. Please do them! 1. Pray the prayers Angel lists on GiveSendGo including this one: “Please pray for the truth to be told and ask God to put the fear into Satan to keep him away from our family.” See the rest here: https://givesendgo.com/G22ZH 2. Go to https://www.patriotfreedomproject.com for lots of info and actions: read about the prisoners, and their families. There you can donate to any of the prisoners’ GiveSendGo. 3. Write letters to the prisoners. Go to https://www.patriotfreedomproject.com. Then click on Connect with a 1/6er and you’ll see an address where you can write to one or to each one (of the MANY still held prisoner!) 4. WEEKLY, contact Angel’s Congressman, Bill Posey, Rep Vern Buchanan, Senators Scott and Rubio, and Gov DeSantis. Tell them to ACT NOW to free the Jan 6 prisoners. Put it in your calendar to do weekly! Contact: Gov DeSantis: (850) 717-9337 or governorron.desantis@eog.myflorida.com Rep Vern Buchanan: (941) 747-9081 or https://buchanan.house.gov/contact/email-me Senator Marco Rubio: call (202) 224-3041 Senator Rick Scott: call (202) 224-5274
Ken Harrelson’s Rep, Bill Posey: Best way for us to contact Posey is a stamped and mailed letter: Congressman Bill Posey, 2150 Rayburn HOB, Washington, DC 20515. Here is a sample message: "Dear Governor DeSantis, It’s been nearly a year that our American citizens have been imprisoned unconstitutionally for being in the Capitol Jan 6 2021. As our elected official we direct you to do all you can starting today to free these citizens, many of whom are veterans. We are counting on you." 5. If you haven’t already, watch and share Newsmax’s documentary, “Day of Outrage.” This is a well-done, fact-based video about Jan 6 and the government’s tyrannical response. You can get Newsmax TV free on Roku. For information on “Day of Outrage” documentary: https://www.newsmaxtv.com/outrage | | | |
