AI Summary: In January 24, 2026 interview, Seth Grossman of Liberty and Prosperity discusses the organization's need for financial support, the importance of local Democratic and Republican Party political clubs, the NJ State takeover of Atlantic City, why good movies present fake "woke" history, and why federal "beach replenishment" is expensive, corrupt, ineffective, and unconstitutional.
1. Liberty and Prosperity: 2026 Goals
Grossman emphasizes that the organization's survival depends on grassroots support and consistent funding.
Membership Dues: The organization requires several hundred members to pay their $30 annual dues for 2026 to maintain operations.
Annual Fundraiser: A key fundraising event is scheduled for February 15 at 2:00 PM. Tickets are $75, and the keynote speaker will be Republican State Senator Michael Testa.
Core Activities: Funds support a weekly email update sent to 4,200 subscribers, social media presence, and local historical events like the September 4th remembrance of Richard Somers and the Tripoli War against Islamic jihad.
2. Local Political Engagement & "Doing More Than Voting"
A major theme of the discussion is the importance of local political clubs, which Grossman argues are often ignored by the general public.
Club Influence: Grossman notes that every town has Republican and Democratic clubs that meet monthly, yet many members are there for "the wrong reasons," such as seeking government jobs or contracts.
Lack of Transparency: He criticizes the Atlantic County Republican and Democratic organizations for failing to list local club officers or meeting information on their websites, suggesting they want to keep the process closed to "insiders."
