Subject: Re: Notice Thread for March Special Monthly Meeting

I have thought more about the ruling of the chair and that, as worded, it does create the definition of "donates" when it should have just been overruled and then a policy manual amendment adopted. As a vote on the prevailing side I seek to add the following motion to the March 1^st LNC Monthly Special meeting agenda:

Move to reconsider the motion to sustain the ruling of the chair previously adopted on February 22, 2026.

In Liberty,

Evan

Subject: Re: Notice Thread for March Special Monthly Meeting

As an action should not start prior to and carry through a meeting - I seek to add to the agenda the following motion to amend the LNC Policy Manual (not it has changed slightly from the original motion I made previously - with an addition to #5 suggested by Dr. George Phillies.

Motion: Move to amend Article I: Section 1.09 of the LNC Policy Manual as follows:

LNC Policy Manual - Amendment

Article I: Section 1.09 — Membership Policies

 

1)         Membership Forms

Membership forms produced by the LNC shall include a membership statement that meets the requirements of Article 4, Section 1 of the Bylaws. 

 

2)         Qualifying Donation

A donation, as required in Article 4 Section 4 of the Bylaws, is defined as a voluntary monetary contribution that is not exchanged for goods, services, event admission, sponsorship recognition, booth space, or merchandise.

2 3)         Life Membership 

A member, as defined in the Bylaws, who contributes donates at least $1,500 during any  previous 365-days period shall be granted, upon written request by the member, life membership in the Party.

 

3 4)         Benefits

The LNC, the Convention Oversight Committee, and staff shall have the discretion to create and bestow additional benefits based on contribution donation levels.

 

4 5)        Joint Membership in National and State Parties

Staff is authorized to develop agreements between the National Committee and a State Affiliate on joint membership, whereby the annual payment by a member to either the National Party or the State Affiliate of an amount that equals or exceeds the basic membership dues or donation amount of both parties, shall be treated as membership in both the National Party and the respective State party for one year. Staff shall ensure all such draft agreements comply with national policies and federal and state law and establishes clear obligations on both parties on the timely remittance of funds to the other party by whomever collects the dues. The Executive Committee shall approve such agreements with each affiliate before they enter into effect.

In Liberty,

Subject: Re: Notice Thread for March Special Monthly Meeting

On behalf of Region 1 Alt, Mr. Martin, I request the following resolution be added to the March 1^st LNC Special Monthly meeting:

Move to adopt the resolution Opposing Military Intervention or War with Iran as follows: 

Resolution Opposing Military Intervention or War with Iran

WHEREAS, the Libertarian Party and its National Committee (LNC) are committed to the principles of non-aggression, individual liberty, and peaceful foreign relations, rejecting the initiation of force by governments, including through military adventurism abroad, and conflict appears to be immanent due to immense military buildup of assets around Persia;

WHEREAS, the history of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, including the 1953 CIA-orchestrated coup in Iranian Persia, support for Saddam Hussein's regime during the Iran-Iraq War, and subsequent interventions in the region, has repeatedly demonstrated the terrible reality of the principle of Blowback and the law of unintended consequences: despite best intentions, US foreign actions with respect to Iran have consistently fostered enmity and escalated conflicts beyond the control of policymakers, often at great cost to American lives, liberties, and taxpayer dollars;

WHEREAS, events in international affairs are inherently unpredictable and not within the full ability of the United States government to control or dictate, and attempts to do so through coercive means have historically led to prolonged entanglements, loss of civil liberties at home, and the erosion of global peace;

WHEREAS, any military action against Iran, whether preemptive strikes, regime change efforts, or full-scale war, would violate the non-interventionist stance of America’s Founding Fathers, enshrined in the Libertarian Party platform, which advocates for free trade, diplomacy, and the avoidance of all entangling alliances that drag the nation into unnecessary wars;

WHEREAS, such actions would likely result in further bloodshed and destabilization of the region, increased terrorism risks, economic disruptions including higher energy prices, and the potential for broader conflicts involving other powers, all while infringing on the sovereignty of nations and the rights of individuals;

WHEREAS the conflicts with Iran risk toppling the delicate political balance between the two factions of Islam, possibly leading to the emergence of a dominant faction between Sunni and Shia Muslims, ultimately risking the formation of a new, unified, belligerent Caliphate or Neo-Ottoman Empire in the Middle East;

WHEREAS, the U.S. Constitution vests the power to declare war solely in Congress, and unauthorized executive military actions undermine the rule of law and separation of powers;

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Libertarian National Committee strongly opposes any U.S. military intervention, war, or aggressive actions against Iran, including but not limited to airstrikes, sanctions intended to provoke conflict, or support for proxy forces aimed at regime change;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the LNC calls upon the President, Congress, and all federal officials to pursue peaceful diplomacy, de-escalation, and the lifting of non-defensive sanctions to foster mutual respect and free exchange between the peoples of the United States and Persia, even if the Persian people remain captive to an oppressive theocratic regime;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the LNC urges its members, affiliates, and supporters to educate the public on the lessons of blowback from past interventions and to advocate for a foreign policy of peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this resolution shall be disseminated through official Libertarian Party channels, including press releases, social media, and communications to elected officials, to amplify the voice of liberty against the drums of war.

Adopted by the Libertarian National Committee on [Date], 2026."

Mr. Secretary, 

In light of recent events on and around the LNC, and on behalf of Mr. Martin, I give notice for the anti-antifa resolution. 

I request to have 10 minutes on the agenda for this topic. 

Andrew Chadderdon

Region 1 Rep | Libertarian National Committee

Resolution against Antifa

Whereas, the Libertarian Party Platform affirms the non-aggression principle, which unequivocally condemns the use of force and especially terrorism against the innocent, whether by governments or political/revolutionary groups;

Whereas, Antifa (short for "anti-fascist") describes a global group of independent, decentralized networks of far-left activists who frequently employ or advocate physical violence, property destruction, subversion, intimidation, and disruption of peaceful assemblies and speech to suppress opposing views;

Whereas, such tactics — including assaults on individuals, vandalism, doxxing, and coordinated efforts to silence dissent — constitute clear initiations of force and violations of individual rights to life, liberty, and property, directly contradicting libertarian principles;

Whereas, Antifa's ideological underpinnings overwhelmingly align with cultural Marxist or collectivist ideas that reject individualism, private property, free markets, and voluntary association in favor of coercive egalitarianism and class/group-based struggle, which are antithetical to libertarian philosophy; 

Whereas, Antifa groups frequently support and initiate violence against opposing views and terrorism against innocents, specifically including but not limited to:

The June 29, 2019, Portland protest where Antifa activists mobbed and assaulted conservative journalist Andy Ngo, punching him, throwing objects (including milkshakes), and causing a brain hemorrhage (subarachnoid bleed) that required hospitalization—Ngo was reporting peacefully and suffered bleeding from his eyes and ears;

Ongoing incidents in Portland (2019–2020), including repeated assaults on journalists and individuals (i.e.: Ngo chased and beaten again in 2021), doxxing of police officers and opponents (e.g., publishing personal info of ICE/federal agents to incite threats), and use of Molotov cocktails, commercial-grade fireworks, rocks, lasers, and incendiary devices against property and law enforcement;

Property destruction during 2020 unrest, such as arson, vandalism, and looting in cities like Portland and Seattle, with Antifa-linked black bloc tactics contributing to millions in damages (i.e.: attacks on federal buildings, courthouses, and police precincts, including barricades, fires, and attempts to burn structures);

Whereas, more recently, reports from February 2026 detail a brutal fatal assault in Lyon, France, where a 23-year-old activist named Quentin was allegedly beaten to death by militants linked to Antifa-aligned groups (Jeune Garde) during a clash while providing security for a women's rights protest; he suffered severe head trauma after being separated and savagely attacked by a mob, resulting in his death from brain injury—this incident exemplifies lethal initiatory violence against individuals exercising peaceful assembly and protective rights, further demonstrating Antifa’s antipathy toward the NAP;

Whereas, the dishonest tactics often associated with Antifa groups — such as misrepresenting events, using false flags, or portraying their violence as "defensive" while initiating aggression — undermine honest discourse and bring disrepute to broader anti-authoritarian movements, including libertarianism, by association in public perception;

Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Libertarian National Committee unequivocally repudiates the initiation of force, violence, property destruction, and intimidation tactics employed or advocated by Antifa activists and groups;

Be it further resolved that the LNC affirms that such actions are incompatible with libertarian principles of non-aggression, individual rights, and peaceful voluntaryism;

Be it further resolved that the Libertarian Party distinguishes itself from both far-right collectivist authoritarianism and far-left collectivist authoritarianism, rejecting any association with groups that initiate force or seek to impose ideological conformity through coercion;

Be it finally resolved that the LNC Chair is directed to communicate this resolution publicly, as appropriate, to clarify the Libertarian Party's commitment to peaceful advocacy of liberty and opposition to all initiatory violence.

I move that we have 15 minutes for consideration of a public policy resolution to endorse proposed legislation, the Fourth Amendment Accountability Act.

The full legislation text is attached.  In short summary, it would remove qualified immunity as a defense in cases where a Fourth Amendment violation is found to have occurred.  The intent is to addresses the Bivens gap, and restore the private right of action intended in 42 U.S.C. § 1983-1988.

This policy can provide a real and politically viable solution to the problems caused by the overreach from unaccountable Federal agencies, such as ICE, the FBI, the ATF, the DEA, and others.

Thank you,

Mr. Chair, 

I noticed you took the time to rush myself and Mr. Chadderdon to a secret trial on false charges, yet you have made no move to remove the actual Leaker of our database from the several party roles in which this individual serves. 

Why is the data exfiltration event so much less important than trying to punish and exclude Mr. Chadderdon and myself from party business without even a nod to proper process? 

To me, these actions (and omissions) do not appear to be in the party's best interest. Can you explain the apparently misplaced priorities?

Mr. Martin, and Chadderdon,

I am not attempting to cover up anything or violate anyone's due process. Actions have been taken by many members of this committee, and motions have been filed in response. The due process happens tomorrow at the LNC meeting in accordance with current policy.  Everyone will get the chance to argue their position and defend their actions.  Ultimately the committee will decide. You can feel free to disagree with the decisions of the committee, as there is no shortage of that particular sentiment. However, I would humbly request that you at least pretend to act with something resembling decorum between now and then. That said, I also know quite well that my request falls on deaf ears.

Very Respectfully,

Mr. McGee, 

You say: "Regardless of whether you consider a phone call to be official executive session or not, any disclosure of privileged confidential information to unauthorized parties is a breach of the NDA you signed."

However this is simply false. 

 The policy manual allows for disclosures of misconduct and illegal activities under the whistleblower policy in our code of conduct. I filed an ethics complaint on this specific issue in October and have followed the proper process to make whistleblower disclosures. 

I have taken great care in not exposing confidential information except where allowed or required by policy. I sincerely hope no more disclosures are necessary — but sunlight is the best disinfectant, and sometimes, the only way to protect the LNC and the Party. 

I am entirely innocent of any wrongdoing, and my disclosures have been authorized by policy. 

If you have such a strong case — then why is your covert caucus playing games to deprive us of due process, and why the need for secrecy? We don't even really know for sure what we are being accused of, because there's no specifics and the surprise-trial is intended to be secret. It wasn't executive session and it wasn't privileged. 

It was embarrassing for Fedpath & his fleecing the Party in New Mexico. Being an embarrassing, raging hypocrite doesn't make something confidential LNC business. 

Do better.

Mr. Bost,

A meeting was vigorously called for by Mr. Chadderdon and Mr. Martin based on a confidential thread, that thread with confidential information was also leaked by Mr. Martin, to discuss confidential legal matters with counsel. The meeting took place on September 10th, all meetings regarding legal matters are considered executive session therefore invoke attorney client privilege, in line with DC law, our own internal procedures, and standards of board governance.

A portion of that meeting was published via an unlawful recording, from Andrew Chadderdons personal YouTube channel, to the LNC business list, and republished on X on Mr. Martin’s personal account.

This not only violates all measures of board confidentiality, but it also violates the law, particularly wire-tapping laws, aka two-party consent, in Michigan, DC, California, Florida, and several other states, which is a criminal offense.

These actions show a clear disregard for the confidentiality of this committee, and duties as members of this body, but is also compounded by the fact that Mr. Martin just forwarded a confidential response letter which was sent by Angela McCardle's legal counsel to me and our attorney. Which further shows that the meeting was called in bad faith designed to record confidential legal discussions surrounding the SIC report, creating undue legal liabilities and violating the fiduciary duties of a board member.

Bottom line is, Mr. Martin and Mr. Chadderdon have proven they cannot be trusted with confidential information and are in contact with opposing counsel in an active legal matter.

Sincerely,

Steven Nekhaila

Chairman, LNC

Mr. Martin, and Chadderdon,

I am not attempting to cover up anything or violate anyone's due process. Actions have been taken by many members of this committee, and motions have been filed in response. The due process happens tomorrow at the LNC meeting in accordance with current policy.  Everyone will get the chance to argue their position and defend their actions.  Ultimately the committee will decide. You can feel free to disagree with the decisions of the committee, as there is no shortage of that particular sentiment. However, I would humbly request that you at least pretend to act with something resembling decorum between now and then. That said, I also know quite well that my request falls on deaf ears.

Very Respectfully,

Jonathan McGee

Region 2 Representative, Libertarian National Committee

Mr. Chair,

1.  You say a "meeting was vigorously called for by Mr. Chadderdon and Mr. Martin". This is false, we requested written answers from Mr. hall, which he refused to provide in writing because the answers implicated him in misconduct. We consented to an informal group phone call. It was not an executive session, which requires a vote.
2. Mr. Redpath's voluntary disclosure of misconduct was already required by law and policy, and cannot be subject to privilege unless we were his personal attorney.
3. I am allowed to comment and share information that is already public. 
4. Your legal advice sucks — the multiplicity of parties likely leaves us in a 1-party consent standard, and I sure do consent to the release, and I'm sure other members feel the same. 
5. Telling the truth is part of my job. I gladly accept any unconstitutional consequences of doing the right thing and opposing the Deep State controlled opposition in the LP. 
6. You have no legal or ideological basis to punish my associations with other Libertarians or caucuses. 
7. The material in question was simply not confidential, and you are no different than any corrupt prosecutor fabricating false charges against the victims of police misconduct. This is CYA behavior. 

Now let's talk about your complicity and involvement with the REAL data breach which resulted in multiple exfiltrations of our database. Why are you protecting those responsible, and aggressively attacking the whistleblowers?

You were afforded a meeting because it was not trusted that if it was put into writing it would leak.

At the end of the meeting we agreed to put things in writing, which you promptly leak.

Two-party consent is absolutely active in FL, I’ll take my attorneys versus your ChatGPT law degree. A crime was committed without a doubt.

Your blatant disregard for confidentiality shows precisely why these motions are warranted.

In nearly every single instance you and Chadderdon were involved in executive session or with confidential materials, they were disclosed.

Lastly, your argument in incredulity, constantly stating you do not understand something as a basis for why it is wrong, is a logical fallacy.

Sincerely,

Steven Nekhaila

Mr. Chair, 

Thank you for the clarification. I remember September but thought this matter was already behind us, and that that it was disputed then that any breach actually occurred so the matter was dead. It isn’t clear why it’s coming up now.

Aloha! 

I would like to provide advance notice of an intended amendment to the Iran Conflict Resolution which will update the resolution to incorporate recent events. 

To update the resolution in light of the recent U.S.-Israeli military strikes on Iran that commenced on February 28, 2026, including the reported killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, the ongoing regime change efforts, and Iran's retaliatory missile attacks, I recommend inserting the following new WHEREAS clauses after the existing fifth WHEREAS clause (which discusses potential destabilization and risks). This will incorporate current events. Additionally, modify the THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED sections to address the active conflict.

This leaves the original resolution in-tact and incorporates the new developments since its introduction. 

New WHEREAS Clauses to Insert:

WHEREAS, on February 28, 2026, the United States, in coordination with Israel, launched a massive military assault on Iran, including strikes on Tehran and other cities, resulting in the reported death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and numerous senior officials, with the explicit goal of regime change, as directly confirmed by American and Israeli officials;

WHEREAS, Iran has responded with missile strikes on Israel and U.S. bases in the region, escalating the conflict and risking a broader regional war involving multiple nations, further illustrating the uncontrollable nature of military interventions and the immediate blowback from such actions;

WHEREAS, these strikes were initiated without a congressional declaration of war, violating the U.S. Constitution's requirement that Congress hold the sole power to declare war, and bypassing legislative oversight, which sets a dangerous precedent for executive overreach and the erosion of checks and balances;

Modified THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED Clauses (Replace Existing Ones):

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Libertarian National Committee strongly condemns the U.S. military intervention and war against Iran that began on February 28, 2026, including airstrikes, regime change efforts, and any support for proxy forces, as these actions violate the non-interventionist principles of the Libertarian Party and perpetuate a cycle of violence and blowback;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the LNC calls upon the President, Congress, and all federal officials to immediately cease military operations in Iran, pursue an unconditional ceasefire, withdraw U.S. forces from the region, and engage in genuine diplomacy to de-escalate the conflict, including the lifting of non-defensive sanctions to promote peaceful relations;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the LNC urges its members, affiliates, and supporters to educate the public on the devastating consequences of this intervention, including the lessons of blowback from past and present actions, and to advocate for a foreign policy of peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this amended resolution shall be disseminated through official Libertarian Party channels, including press releases, social media, and communications to elected officials, to amplify the voice of liberty against the ongoing war.

Adopted by the Libertarian National Committee on March 1st, 2026

If there are any objections or concerns, please don't hesitate to let me know. 

Have a good morning! 

Austin Martin
