…Did you feel all of the good vibes I was sending your way 9:00 – 10:00 PM (EST) last night?

I understand you spent time last night with U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks (MJB), R-Ala. & 49 of your closest friends where you discussed strategy for the Jan 6 Electoral College Session.

…Your GRATEFUL activity could be to call the 44 GOP folk who voted for your $2000 relief checks in Congress yesterday. You could start at the end of the alphabet & talk to Rep Lee Zelden of NY’s 1st District. He represents my brother & listed 15 projects of the Appropriations bill that will directly benefit the folks at the tip of Long Island. Many involve doing feasibility studies related to remedying problems such as “flood,” “hurricane” & “shoreline depletion.”…
…I wish you had more faith in your friends so that you could trust that STM did his best to represent you when negotiating with NPP, CES, AMM & KOM about the stimulus bill.

“I am only a Bill” describes the long, long process for a bill to become a law which is NOT the process used to generate the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021. …We both know that the 5593-page document on your desk did not follow this process.

…thank the 43 Congress people who are retiring this year, especially KA Sen Pat Roberts (CPR) who has had a half-century in KA politics…. you might ask him for some tips.
