Between 2 Parties - The Peoples Podcast

In this episode, I sit down with Rob Miller and discuss valuable information regarding the major treaties that the last three sitting President's of the United States have been a part of. Rob brings great insight on how a Treaty becomes constitutional in the US, shares with us the history of the Iran Deal, the Paris Climate Agreement, the TPP Deal, and NAFTA (the US-Mexico-Canada Trade Agreement), and which ones are actually Constitutional, which the truth might surprise you. Enjoy the episode and if you have any questions or comments, please reach out to me at between2partiespodcast@gmail.com 

This week I had the honor to sit down and talk openly with Reinette Senum who has been involved in leadership in California for over 20 years. Once the Pandemic happened in 2020, she was on the front lines of the medical freedom movement and made the decision to run for California Governor in 2022. In this podcast episode, we discuss her experience during the Pandemic and running for Governor, while she shares the importance of the 7th Generation Principle and the main topics of her Contract with Californian she created prior to her run for Governor, and how we can apply these principles now in our own communities and start making significant changes.I admire her balanced approach regarding how to address some of the most important issues we face today regarding our economy, climate, education, farming, healthcare, health,  and more. She is a truth seeker, truth teller, critical thinker, and activist. She does not hold back from speaking truth to power. She has her own Substack where you can see more of her content:https://substack.com/profile/23696988-reinette-senumEnjoy This Episode....It is one of my personal favorites. I believe we need more leaders who are fearless and walk in the truth like Reinette.  

One of Between 2 Parties Podcast's goals is to allow ALL Oregonians to have a platform where they can respectfully share their perspectives regarding both political and social issues. I believe it is through respectful discourse that we can break through the differences we may have and find common ground so we can start healing the political-social divide and work together to find solution focus change.Rob Miller and I released our first Civics 101 podcast 2 weeks ago and a listener Kody Justus reached out to me to share his perspectives, so Rob and I thought it would be great to have him come on the show.In this episode, Rob, Kody, and I discuss how the government works or does not effectively work from the Local, State, and Federal levels, especially over the last few years. If you are interested in coming on the show to discuss your perspectives or concerns please reach out to me at between2partiespodcast@gmail.com or on Facebook Messenger.

In today's podcast, Rob Miller goes into the history of the State of the Union (SOTU) Address and its important role in our government. Then we have a discussion over Biden's SOTU address to the nation on 2-7-23, the interesting events that occurred during the speech, and more. Enjoy!

Welcome, B2P Podcast Listener to one of our new series to start out 2023.  I have been blessed to know Rob Miller since 2019.

Over the last few years, Oregon Public Schools have been struggling with academic excellence. Student Test Score's are dropping dramatically in reading, math, and science. You can research the information in this link: https://www.oregon.gov/ode/educator-resources/assessment/Pages/Assessment-Group-Reports.aspxBoth Parents and Educators are becoming concerned about the challenges students face in the classroom from academic excellence to the distractions in the classroom due to teachers pushing both their political and activism viewpoints instead of focusing on educating their students in the necessary fundamentals of reading, writing, math, science, etc, so they can thrive scholastically and prepare for success once they leave the public school education system.Fortunately, there are a group of Educators and Parents that are working diligently to provided other options for students who want to thrive and learn in the academic arena. I had the opportunity to sit down and talk with Donna Kreitzberg of Education Freedom of Oregon who has been working hard to create two amendments that would be a win-win-win for both the schools, the parents and their children. They are the Open Enrollment and the School Choice Amendments.  The goal is to start collecting signatures in early 2023, so both Amendments can be on the ballot in November 2024. If both Amendments pass they would become a part of the Oregon State Constitution.After reading through the documentation and talking to Donna at length about both Amendments, I am very grateful for all the hard work Donna and many others have done to make this come to fruition and I look forward to supporting them along this journey anyway I can. Our children deserve the BEST education possible, which is free of divisiveness, indoctrination, and coercion.  We need an educational environment that challenges our students in academic excellence, critical thinking, and the ability to have respectful dialogue and debate in the classroom without being judged, criticized, canceled, or fear they will get a poor grade if they do not align with their teachers belief system. My son graduated in 2011, he had an incredible public school education from K-12, so I am very surprised at how much has changed over the last decade. I believe it is every Oregonians responsibilities to support our youth and work together to make sure they have the best education possible, so they can thrive in the world once they graduate and enter adulthood. 

I had the honor to meet Dr. John DiPaola during the 2022 Primaries while he was running for Oregon's US Congressional District 5. John is a retired Orthopedic Surgeon who dedicated his skills to helping injured workers, but has always had a deep love and concern for Oregon's Environment. Over the last several years, he has dedicated his time to a variety of environmental causes like the Audubon Society and The Nature Conservancy, while doing his own deep research on environmental issues. After the Oregon Primaries, he decided to focus his attention on his new endeavor, which he is in the process of launching called the Oregon Green Plan, which is filled with incredible scientific data regarding the environment, climate change, and how we can work with the environment to help heal the planet instead of against it. Even though, his data differs from the traditional Climate Change theme that we hear on Mainstream Media, he is committed in having respectful dialog with a variety of scientists and educators in the Environmental Arena to work together to find solution focused change for our beautiful State. This is a great interview with some fascinating  environmental scientific data, which will blow your mind. I am excited to have him back on the show again soon. 

There is a proposed tolling project in Oregon that is under publicized and many Oregonians are not aware of it. Due to the Government and ODOT's lack of transparency, scientific and financial data, Oregonians are not aware of  the drastic impacts it will have on their pocket books, their  ability to travel throughout Oregon, and how it will affect small businesses.Fortunately, we have a group of people taking a stand against this unnecessary tolling project at Vote Before Tolls. They are working on getting information out to the public about the proposed tolling project, while gathering signatures, so they can get IP-4 on the ballot in Fall of 2024, which would require the tolling project to be put on the ballot, so Oregonians can vote on it. You can go to their link at: www.votebeforetolls.org where you can view and sign the petition, download and print the petition, so you can collect signature, and donate to help support their cause. For IP-4 to get on the ballot in 2024, they need to collect 200,000 + signatures by June 2024.Oregonians it is time to stop the financial bleeding in our pocket books due to our ineffective leadership and their unsubstantiated policies. The time is now to become educated on how our government works, what is happening in all levels of government, and we need to demand transparency on where our tax dollars, the gas tax, the lottery money, and the possible money from these tolling projects are going. Enjoy the podcast episode and if you have questions or want to be on the podcast feel free to reach out to me at: between2partiespodcast@gmail.com.

On the eve of the November 8, 2022 Mid-Term Elections, I had the honor to sit down and have a conversation with Primary Gubernatorial Candidate Marc Thielman regarding the work he has been doing since the Primaries regarding Election Integrity. Marc has an incredible mind and heart and is truly committed to shining the light on where the corruption lies within our government, while representing the people and working for solution-focused change.He has the potential to be one of the up and coming new thought leaders of our time. This interview shows his ability to think outside the box regarding the traditional politics as usual, especially when it comes to the recent Federal Civil Lawsuit he filed.He is requesting our leadership within the Oregon Election System, to respect and listen to Oregonians who are concerned about if their vote is safe, secure, and is being accurately counted by being transparent with us and show us the forensic election data. Simply put if the SOS and the county election officials  would model transparency by listening and working with the people to put their concerns at ease regarding the Integrity of our Elections they would have the ability to create trust with the Oregon Voters. Unfortunately, they are choosing to do the opposite by insinuating that if Oregonians want to do their civic duty by being a part of the election process regarding monitoring the ballot counts these Oregonians are an extremist, conspiracy theorist, or they are trying to impede with our elections and democracy, which create more Oregonian to question our Government and build a greater lack of trust. We The People are asking our leaders to do their job, by representing us and providing the data necessary to show the transparency in our election system. I believe that this would show our government is in integrity and is a very common sense and unifying approach, do you?I would like to remind all the B2P listeners that America is a Constitutional Republic not a Democracy, so I recommend you research the difference, it is a true eye opener and I will be discussing it more in my next episode with Amber Richardson, who also ran for Governor in the 2022 Primaries.  In closing, Marc is working hard to help serve and represent the people in this Lawsuit. I invite every listener to go to battlegroundoregon.org and donate to help with the continuation of this lawsuit that Marc is doing for We The People.  Every offering counts $1, $5, $10, $25, or more.  In Deep Gratitude! Peace Y'all!

Welcome to Season 2 of Between 2 Parties Everyone. After taking a 5 month hiatus from the podcast to reflect on the political landscape after the the 2022 Primary Season, I am happy to be back with a new vision and mission for the podcast and an exciting new non-profit I will be introducing in the days to come. After the Primaries, it is clear to see the Establishment that dominates and has corrupted our 2 Party System is alive and well in our current Selection Election State.Needless to say after a short 1.5 years of being in politics, this girl is done and is ready to strike out on a brave new adventure to give voice to the people of our Beautiful State. Create an environment where we can leave the toxic tribalism of both the Democratic and Republican Parties in the dust, find common ground with each other and work toward building unity amongst the people, while having open dialogue on how we can work together to create solution focused change outside our broken 2 Party System. Yes, this is the first podcast that I have ever done by myself without being interviewed or interviewing someone, so please forgive me for the length and keeping it the raw unedited version. I know as I get comfortable hosting a podcast solo, I will learn how to reign my thoughts in a be more concise. Everything we do has a learning curve and everything gets better in time with more practice.Also, I don't know how to do detailed editing yet, where I can cut segments out....so I hope you enjoy my unedited download of my thoughts, perspectives, and vision as, We The People proceed to press forward in this beautiful place we all call home.As always, feedback and open conversations are welcome, so please feel free to reach out to me on Social Media or contact me at between2partiespodcast@gmail.com.

It was an honor to sit and talk to Yao Palmer as she shared her inspirational life story and her experience to become a US Citizen. At this time in American history where illegal immigration is occurring on a daily basis, Yao's story is a great reminder that America continues to welcome people from all over the world to become citizens of the United States, but for the health and safety of our Republic it is critical people go through the appropriate channels to become legal citizens. Enjoy the show! 

Ben Edtl is an average Oregonian who was a thriving small business owner prior to the Pandemic. Once the lockdowns occurred in 2020, it effected his businesses greatly, so he decided to step up as a Freedom Fighter and fight for those that were suffering during this time of great fear, misinformation, and chaos. Through this he co-founded a non-partisan group called FreeOregon, which has been influential in standing for Medical Freedom, Small Businesses, and for workers who lost their jobs due to Employer and State Vaccine Mandates.He is now being called to take a bigger step into service work to the people by running for Oregon State Senator for District 19. Ben is courageous and is willing to take a stand for what is right and for others.  He is transparent and speaks his mind with clarity and conviction. Due to these attributes many of his cynics claim he is a right-wing racist, closed-minded, and many other incorrect judgements. I invited him on the show to share about the great work he is doing and to dispel the myths about him that others place upon him. I am grateful he came on the show, so people could listen to his ideas, his goals, and how he would like to continue to contribute to make Oregon a better place. ***There are a few curse words in this interview, so heads up if you have kiddos around while you are listening.***

Nick is one of my favorite candidates who is running for Governor. In this episode Nick shares his passion for being in service to others and his innovative ideas to move Oregon forward.He is very intelligent, well informed on the issues Oregon faces, and he is one of the few grassroots candidates that are boots on the ground and is action oriented, while running his campaign. Many of his critics with in the Republican Party state, he does not adhere to the conservative values of the Party, but I believe Nick is just one of the many new young conservative thought leaders that are ready to bring back civility to politics by working with Republicans, NAV's, and Democrats, so we can heal the Divide in our State and in our Country and have a government that is functional again. I look forward to see what lies ahead for Nick in his future. Peace y'all and Love Always Wins. 

In this episode, it was an honor to sit down and have a heartfelt conversation with Sam Palmer who is running for US Senate. Sam has dedicated his life to being in service to others.  While he is running his campaign, he is a dedicated husband, father, grandfather, son, and works as a nurse in Eastern Oregon. He is an inspiration to many and his soul call to serve in a bigger way by representing all Oregonian's in Washington DC shows how dedicated he is to his faith in God.Sam has all the attributes of a true leader integrity, transparency, humility, strength, intelligence, compassion, and grace.Enjoy this episode, it is one of my favorite ones I have done so far. Peace y'all and remember, Love Always Wins.

Amber Richardson is running for Oregon Governor in 2022. She is a new era of Grassroots Leadership. As she says, " I am a Patriot, not a Politician and I am here to be inservice to all Oregonians."She is 37 years old, but her ability to network to create AMAZING changes within the State of Oregon is undeniable and sets her above the rest of many of her fellow colleagues. Throughout her entire campaign, she has been a "boots on the ground" activist for the Constitution, Veterans, and finding solutions to put an end to Human Trafficking. She is running a true Grassroots campaign, with minimal campaign financing because she truly believes it is The Establishment's "Pay to Play" agenda that corrupts so many political leaders and they fail to actually serve "We the People" when they took the oath to so.She is a breathe of fresh air in the World of Politics in Oregon. 

Amber Richardson interviews Bernadette Pentkowski-McKee regarding the inspiration and the creation of the Between 2 Parties Podcast, while allowing the listeners to get to know Bernadette on a more personal level. It has been Bernadette's life journey and the the devastating effects, she witnessed on innocent people during to the Pandemic over the last 2 years that has empowered her to get actively involved in the world of politics and has committed herself to be in Service to the people, so we can find commonality amongst each other and build unity. She believes it is through unity that "We the People" can reclaim our power and use our abilities to to influence positive change,  through our peaceful actions, our voice, and our vote.
