An Open Letter to My Fellow Minnesotans: Thank You for Fueling the Fight
Christmas Eve 2025
Dear Patriots, Contributors, Digital Warriors, Volunteers, and Truth-Seekers Across Minnesota,
Merry Christmas! As we gather with family and celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ—the One who came to set the captives free and shine light into the darkest corners—I want to take a moment to thank every single one of you who has stood with this campaign in 2025.
Seventy-one contributors stepped up with a total of $6,286.77. That’s it. No big checks from lobbyists, no insider bundles from the same donor class that keeps the DFL machine and their fake-Republican enablers in power. Just real Minnesotans—farmers, parents, small business owners, retirees, whistleblowers—putting skin in the game because you’re sick of the looting.
With those dollars we printed and distributed 1,700 pamphlets that exposed the grift in black and white, rolled out banners that made people stop and think, covered venue fees, and kept the lights on. We end the year with $1,478 still in the bank—ready to fight another day.
But the real story isn’t the cash we raised. It’s what we’ve done with it—and without it.
I’ve personally poured in over $250,000 worth of unreimbursed time and expense if you priced it at market rates the political class pays their consultants:
• 15,000+ miles driving this state (mileage + driver time: ~$20,500)
• Building and running the website from scratch (~$10,000)
• Communications and fiscal security to keep the hackers out (~$30,000)
• My 21 years of Navy intelligence applied to digging up the fraud rings (~$50,000 PI rates)
• All video production for 142 YouTube videos and countless clips (~$70,000)
• Admin, publicity, speechwriting, incidentals—the whole operation (~$70,000+)
Our volunteers have poured in countless hours equivalent to tens of thousands in paid labor—knocking doors, spreading truth, and fueling this grassroots uprising—turning every donor dollar into a precision strike against the syndicate’s empire.
And the results? Laugh if you want, political class—we’re damn proud.
Over 104,000 website views. 60,500 visitors—a 6,615% increase year-over-year. Minnesotans are devouring the manifesto, the platform, the exposés on daycare fraud, COVID theft, election rigging, and nonprofit slush funds. Facebook drove nearly 40,000 referrals, X another 12,000. We’re reaching 30,000+ souls across platforms, all while being ignored, shadow-banned, and sometimes flat-out silenced.
We’ve done this on literal pennies while the establishment crowd burns hundreds of thousands—often from the very networks we’re exposing. Yet in the few polls and straw votes that dare look beyond their anointed favorites, we’re sitting 4th or 5th. That’s not noise. That’s proof the message is cutting through the lies.
So let the insiders smirk at our “small” numbers. We know what those numbers really mean: every dollar stretched farther, every hour more lethal to the racket, every view a Minnesotan waking up. This isn’t just a campaign—it’s the blueprint for governing. Lean. Honest. Relentless. No waste, no grift, no compromise.
Because if we can punch this hard with pennies and sweat equity, imagine what we’ll do with the full authority of the Governor’s office: dismantle the fraud empires, slash the waste that funds them, eliminate taxes that punish families, and restore integrity to a government that’s forgotten who it serves.
You didn’t just give money or time—you gave Minnesota hope. You proved that a real outsider movement can rise without selling out. And together, in Christ’s strength, we’re going to finish what we started.
Thank you. Merry Christmas. And get ready—2026 is the year the grifters finally get what’s coming.
In faith and unbreakable resolve,
Phillip C. Parrish
Retired U.S. Navy Intelligence Officer
Republican Candidate for Governor of Minnesota 2026
