Last June, NPR, which I call National Propaganda Radio, put out a “hit piece” seeking to drag down four prominent voices in the fight for national election integrity. They were yours truly, Mike Lindell, David Clements, and Doug Frank. Instead, they wound up painting us as a bunch of battle-hardened, indefatigable road warriors. You can read that article here.
I was pleasantly surprised by this exposure. Not only did they put up a picture of me looking like a total hardass in my patented leather vest, rocked without shame in prim and proper New England in late 2021 and staring down at their cameraman, they confirmed for their gullible audience that I have not let time, distance, and wear and tear stand in the way of my mission.
NPR thought they were very clever in concocting a map of their four subjects’ travels, which you can see below. Again, I was not upset one iota – in fact, I was pleased once again. Donald Trump is fond of reminding us that any press is good press. I was painted by their choice of photography, reporting, and tone as a bad guy and obstacle in the way of their goal of permanently corrupting elections. I wouldn’t ask for anything less.
Notably, I was credited for having spoken at election integrity related events in 37 states by the end of June 2022; I scanned the map, being a lifelong fan of maps and cartography, for accuracy. I realized they missed many events, which I began scrawling down on my notepad to send for correction. Then I saw they had given Doug Frank credit for 138 events, 9 more than they credited me for. I was furious. There was no way I was just going to sit back and be outrun by a 61-year-old math teacher from Ohio who annoys the ever living hell out of me with his tuning rod at joint events.
Thus began the maintenance of my revised travel map which I keep up with today, which was sent over for corrections NPR never made. Without further ado, here is my map of travels that began in July 2021, 26 months ago:
Counties marked in red have only been driven through. Counties marked in green have been host to an election integrity related event.
My first meeting focused on election integrity was on July 14, 2021, in Spokane, Washington, with a group of patriots who drove across the state to meet me while I was on vacation.
My first organized event occurred on July 21, 2021, in Flora, Mississippi, at a church whose pastor took serious heat from Methodist leadership for hosting the event.
After I spoke in North Richland Hills, Texas, on July 29, 2021, the media caught on, beginning a firestorm of travel and activity that makes a man feel like Lewis and Clark must have felt, especially when operating on little sleep.

Conclusion
I’ve been everywhere. Travel animates me, as does this mission, perhaps because I have nowhere else to go, and all signs lead to me keeping at it until otherwise shown. I’ve been paid, I’ve worked as a volunteer, and I’ve been stiffed, to the tune of over $25,000 in unrecovered expenses or payments. Some people mistakenly believe this mission is a means to getting rich. I have thoroughly debunked that, and even so, this is not a firehose everyone can drink from. Staying physically fit, eating right, getting sufficient sleep between time zones, and balancing travel itineraries with the demands of everyday life are all things that must be accounted for, and it has become increasingly easy for me to attempt to be all things to all people, and drive myself into the ground. In some cases, it has taken a surgical procedure to force me to catch up on taking care of myself.
This mission will continue as long as God continues to give me this voice, and as long as my message resonates with those who believe our elections are worth fixing. I am not perfect, have never claimed to be perfect, and will never be perfect, but I do believe that we can align our hearts and minds in such a way that God uses us for maximum impact. It has been an honor to meet so many of you around this country, and I have no doubt that we will succeed in restoring our Republic so long as we do not give up.

Awesome! I can picture you, in your patented leather vest, singing the Karaoke version of "I've Been Everywhere"! Thank you for all you do.
What a great piece Cap! History will be very kind to you, sir. Millions of Patriots are very appreciative of your efforts! I'm doing what I can, when I can, to further the mission because of Patriots like you, Professor Clements and so many more! Stay the Course!
