I happened to be sat next to Doug on the flight home from DC the day after J6, and spent most of that flight talking with him.

He never intended to enter politics. He was a farmer who got involved locally because he had to; to be an activist for his local community of farmers. Because of the great job he did in that capacity, he was talked into running for Congress, but politics wasn’t something he aspired to, or enjoyed; he was there by necessity, not ambition.

In our talk he vented about how he could no longer let his children watch TV unsupervised, due to the growing problem of gay & trans BS being forced into shows and commercials.

It seemed we were aligned in basically all topics we discussed.

Doug was one of the handful the voted with the alternate electors on the J6 electoral college vote.

One funny thing; near the end of the flight, after I guess he felt he had vetted me enough, he said that members of Congress were given a brief the night before about possible vote manipulation by satellite. I replied “Oh, are you talking about Leonardo in Italy?” and he just stopped, looked at me, and asked how in the world I knew that, lol. I told him that we (Internet anons) had learned about that in the days leading up to J6, to which he seemed very surprised.

From our couple hours talking, he sure seemed like one of the (few) good guys in DC. RIP
