It was incredible, as three of the five Sarasota Police Department officers present at the Sarasota County Republican Executive Committee (SREC) meeting stood at the entrance of the meeting assisting SREC Chairman Brill denying entrance to the only media present (The Sarasota Phoenix) and members of the SREC seeking entrance to the meeting, who belonged to Trump MAGA America First organizations.
Over 75 other Trump MEGA America First activists have been previously purged from the SREC membership list by DeSantis Tallahassee establishment lackey, Power.

NEAL AND HIS CRONIES CONTROL LOCAL REC AND UNI PARTY
Neal
In Sarasota, Trump MAGA America First activists have had enough of a SREC having Pat Neal, who is a Democrat turned Republican establishment RINO, a documented "never Trump" and a DeSantis for President million-dollar contributor in control of the SREC, who along with Randy Benderson have been bankrolling Brill’s UNI Party SREC operation.
Benderson with two area County Commissoners stuffed in his pockets
Benderson is a Buffalo, New York billionaire buying local politicians turning Sarasota and Manatee Couty into what he brought from Buffalo---corrupting politicians stuffed his pockets turning whatever he lays his greedy hands on in Paradise Lost.
Culverhouse
Benderson in union with two County Commissioners was convicted by a six member Sarasota County jury of defrauding fellow developer Hugh Culverhouse Jr. in 2015 . The jury awarded Culverhouse over $20 million, but a Neal crooked Judge Peter Dubinsky overturned the decision.
Gruters
Neal has been in control of the SREC ever since the then Chairman of the local REC in 2015, Florida State Senator Joe Gruters turned over the SREC to Neal’s flunky Jack Brill, which was after Gruters was blackmailed concerning a salacious allegation on social media threatening Gruters political career.
The message from the Neal Gang to Gruters was made clear back then-- become just another Neal political hack similar to the rest of local poliicians and your problems go away. Gruters agreed and his political career has flourished, as a flunky for Neal.
Gruters continuing doing his Neal ring kissing duties last Thursday night’s SREC meeting when he had his legislative aide and Brill’s daughter Vicky Brill Keller nominate the Neal flunky Jack Brill once again Chairman of the SREC.
Gruters is nervously waiting to see if DeSantis’s deal in sucking up to Trump by appointing Trump’s daughter-in-law Lara Trump to replace Marco Rubio includes Gruters again sucking up to public trough with DeSantis appointing Gruters the Florida CFO replacing Jimmy Petroni, who is running for U.S Congress.

The Neal/Benderson SREC flunkies elected by Brill’s recruited members, who only show up every two years to elect were Brill as Chairman are former Wisconsin Democrat Alice Rothbeuer, who has $90,000 job at New College assisting Gruters wife Sydney Gruters, who has a 150,000 job at New College.

Brill’s handpicked treasurer is Atticus Frank, who without an outside audit keeps a lid on a criminal enterprise that has $90,000 going to Tampa based political operative Anthony Pedicini, $97,000 going to Jupiter based political consultant Randy Neilsen, burying $120,000 in dark PAC money from Tallahassee political operative Stafford Jones and thousands going to Brill’s fake news media mouthpiece Rod Thomson and Brill's personal attorney, Democrat Morgan Bentley. Then there is on two separate occasions Brill's catering company, Mertz Culinary Services received over $27,000 to cater SREC events.

SARASOTA ONE OF 10 COUNTIES ACTIVELY ENGAGING DeSANTIS LACKY POWER
The Sarasota County REC is one of 10 County REC in Florida, which has witnessed MAGA America First activists being shut out of participating in leadership positions on their local REC. Those 10 REC includes Manatee County.

Sarasota County is one of 10 Florida counties actively engaging Governor DeSantis flunky Chairman of the Florida Republican Party (RPOF) Power, who is purging MAGA Trump America First activist from been actively involved in leadership position within the Florida REC.
In Manatee County the local REC has been shut down and election suspended indefinity, which is due to retribution for the America First activists leading the coalition taking out DeSantis multimillion dollar donors on the Manatee County Commission.

Retribution for DeSantis flunky Power for the UNI Party lavender political operative Pedicini out losing all four of De Santis major donor Carlos Beruff Manatee County Commission seats along with the Manatee County Supervisor of Election position going down. (All those Pedicini campaigns were financed by DeSantis’s donors, the Beruff/Neal Gang).
Speir
The takedown of the MREC and closing down elections by the establishment RPOF in Tallahassee is also their disapproval of Edie Speir becoming Chairman of the MREC
Speir is who embarrassed the Republican establishment Vice Chairman of the U.S House of Representee Ways and Means Committee Vern Buchanan in gaining 40% of the vote against Buchanan in the recent 11th U.S Congressional campaign.
PETITION CIRCULATED ASKING FOR POWER AND HELMICH RESIGNATION
Now, as billionaire Steve Witkoff, who has raised $millions for Trump and DeSantis and is Trump’s co-chair of the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee pushes DeSantis suck up to Trump, a petition has been circulating signed by thousands of MAGA America First grassroots activists.
The petition asks among other grievances, the resignations of DeSantis flunkies Power and the RPOF Executive Director Bill Helmich.
The petition states that, “Losing the confidence of its members and looking at a red wave which would have led to a reform of RPOF, potentially with America First/MAGA leadership, RPOF went on an offensive by purging these Trump supporting members and rewriting bylaws giving them the ability to due so, even though they broke their own new bylaws in doing so by failing to give notice, due process, or follow timelines as outlined by the new or old rules. RPOF also made it impossible to remove chairmen even for malfeasance or misfeasance.”
The petition according to the leadership of various MAGA America First activists appears to be an attempt to make things right and return the party back to the MAGA/America First movement by demanding that Power and Helmich step down as chair and executive director of the party.
The petition includes some of the following actions:
1. The immediate reinstatement in good standing with voting privileges to all purged members of the RPOF suspended by the Mark Cross led Grievance Committee
2. The immediate suspension of Mark Cross, chairman of the grievance committee from the Republican Party for gross malfeasance
3. The immediate suspension of William Stafford Jones, of the grievance committee from the Republican Party for gross malfeasance
4. Suspension of all expenditures to or involving LGBTQ activist and dark money operator Anthony Pedicini, SIMWINS, or associated firms for the destruction of Republican candidates and campaigns, directly harming the future of the Republican Party.

POWER AND BRILL CONSPIRED TO TAKE OUT TRUMP AMERICA FIRST SUPORTERS FROM SREC
Power has been conspiring with Brill to remove Trump America First activists from the SREC and running for leadership positions within the SREC ever since DeSantis disastrous and humiliating defeat running against Trump for President ended.
Power and Brill initiated taking out Trump MEGA America First activists by initiating RPOF Rule 1A (2) earlier this year, which had members of the Sarasota County Republican Assembly (SCRA) being banned from any Florida SREC membership.
RPOF RULE 1.A. (2) IS RETRIBUTION BY DeSANTIS FOR TRUMP AMERICA FIRST ACTIISTS SUPPORTING TRUMP
RPOF Rule 1.A. (2) was nothing more than retribution by DeSantis for Trump America First activist supporting former President Donald Trump for President in 2024.
Trump America First activists are now being outcasted from the SREC due to being supporters of Trump for President, as opposed to Brill SREC leadership in support of DeSantis for President. The SCRA) was formed as an organization opposed to a SREC under Brill’s leadership, who were strong supporters of DeSantis for President.
The SREC was a DeSantis for President organization became apparent, as DeSantis traveled the country seeking the Presidency of the United States.

For example, as DeSantis No. 1 political operative, Casey DeSantis on 6/23/23 opened up the Governor’s Mansion for a luncheon with the establishment leadership of the Sarasota County Republican Executive Committee (SREC), and not one member of the MAGA Trump America conservative grassroots activists were at the table.
Brunni
Another major reason Brill and Power conspired to put RPOF Rule 1.A. (2) in place was to keep a major Trump America First leader, Connie Brunni from running against Brill for Chairman of the SREC.
Brill defeated the America First candidate Connie Brunni in a close election for Chairman of the SREC in 2022 and Brill did not desire Brunni running against him in 2024. Thus, Power’s RPOF Rule 1.A. (2) banning Brunni from running against Brill, due to Brunni being a member of a SCRA.
Brunni being the leader of the America First grassroots organizations that was a major factor in Sarasota County Republican election victories, Brunni could take out Brill in 2024. Thus, Brunni had to go and RPOF Rule 1.A. (2) was initiated to take Brunni out.
Pozzie
Another America First activist not allowed entranced to the SREC meeting due to RPOF 1.A. (2) was Michelle Pozzie, who had put in her name up for Chairman of the SREC opposing the DeSantis/Power lackey, Brill.
Pozzie was the America First candidate, who lost a Florida State Representative election to James Buchanan backed by the Tallahassee Republican establishment led by Charlotte County Republican establishment Florida State Representative Michael Grant.
Grant with a few other Tallahassee Republican establishment politicians conspired with Lavender Republican political operative Anthony Pedicini to take out America First Pozzie, who was outspent 10 to 1 by Buchanan establishment donors.
BRILL DOCUMENTED POLITICAL INEPTNESS
The America First grassroots activists forming America First organizations was also a split from Brill’s leadership of the local REC, due to his inability to be the person to lead the Sarasota County Republican Party in the 2024 election cycle.
With the stunning loss in the recent Venice City elections, when two Democrats defeated two Republican in the bastion of Republican conservatism in Southwest Florida, it had become apparent to local politician observers that local REC chairman Brill is a totally incompetent political operative.
Brull inept leadership abilities were further evidenced when Republican candidates for the Sarasota School Board were defeated by a coalition of liberal Democrat and political operatives of the Lesbian/Gay/Bi Sexual/Transgender/Queer (LGBTQ) organizations.
There was absolutely no effective Get Out the Vote (GOTV) campaign initiated by Brill to elect Republican candidates to the School Board, as two EQUALITY FLORIDA LGBTQ candidates, Tom Edwards and Liz Barker were elected to push their LGBTQ agenda among local Sarasota students.
Brill’s claims now being a no-show during August primary, Brill’s claims that he was responsible for Republican victories last November are outrageous, as Republicans won because Trump was at the top of the ticket.
Brill’s led establishment UNI Party SREC includes having no problem with the Sarasota City Commission in the hands of five Democrat Commissioners in the pockets of multi-million-dollar UNI Party developers at the Argus Foundation and LGBTQ organizers turning the Sarasota City Commission in one big SHIT SHOW and a bastion of promoting the LGBTQ agenda.
MREC CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT ARE BEING VIOLATED
This Civil War has now become public as American First grassroots activists, who led the Florida Trump for President campaign by knocking on doors, waving Trump flags and making the telephone calls in support of Trump are now seeing their constitutional rights being violated.
AMERICA FIRST ACTIVISTS TREATED LIKE GARBAGE
Depriving and purging MEGA America grassroots activists from leadership positions in Sarasota and shutting down MREC and their elections in Manatee County is a prime example of Trump America First activists now being treated like garbage by the Tallahassee establishment RINO leadership of the RPOF.

The question now is Trump aware of MAGA America First grassroots activists that led his grassroots organizations are in a Civil War, as DeSantis establishment donors gain his ear?
