Michael Gargiulo Thanks 35,036 Voters, Announces Plans After Georgia Senate Campaign

Published

on

ATLANTA and LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga., Nov. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Michael Gargiulo, CEO at VPN.com and recent Georgia State Senate candidate, announced plans for 2025. With a platform of freedom, security, and low taxes, Gargiulo received 35,036 votes in Gwinnett County, demonstrating the strength of conservative values in suburban Atlanta.

“Thank you, truly, for joining us on this journey. I thank God, our teams, and everyone seeking a stronger America and safer Georgia. We are excited to announce our vision for the future, but please know that being a candidate to serve this way has forever changed my life,” former State Senate candidate Michael Gargiulo shared. “The prayer and dedication of our supporters in the face of a steep mountain was incredible. This movement is bringing bold leadership change across America,” Gargiulo said.

On November 5, 2024, in the General Election, Gwinnett received 420,681 total votes, with 173,041 for President Donald Trump, the most of any county in Georgia.

Official Announcement
Gargiulo announced plans to continue his work as CEO at VPN.com, fighting for free speech, property rights, and internet security. Gargiulo also announced he has returned as the Chief of Staff for State Senator Colton Moore for the upcoming 40-day 2025 Georgia legislative session.

“I am excited to return to the State Capitol as Senator Moore’s Chief of Staff. As we have done for nearly a decade, we aim to protect Georgians from the tragedies of open borders, decrease the hardship of over-taxation and over-regulation, protect property rights, improve Georgia’s mail delivery problems, accelerate the elimination of state income taxes, promote entrepreneurship, pay off state debt faster, and reduce abuses of the justice system. As we enter this Golden Age of Georgia, we look forward to working with the 47th President of the United States, Vice President JD Vance, and the Trump Administration.

“We believe it is also wise to explore creating the Georgia Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Incoming federal DOGE department heads Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will find government waste that can also be cut from state budgets. Together, we will continue fighting inflation, waste, and incompetency to make Georgia affordable again.”

Securing Georgia’s Future and Thank You Statement
Gargiulo urged community leaders, veterans, and entrepreneurs to get involved in public service, local organizations, and faith-based initiatives. His campaign aimed to inspire others to serve.

“Please pray for and encourage future candidates, it is not an easy process” Gargiulo said. “I hope these campaigns of 2024 will inspire leaders to step forward and make a difference in their communities for generations to come.”

Gargiulo extended his thank you statement to Jesus, Pastor Jentezen Franklin, Senator Colton Moore, Congressman Andrew Clyde, Congressman Jim Jordan, Congressman Mike Collins, Barron Trump, Latinos for Trump, former State Representative Melvin Everson, Representative Charlice Byrd, Senator Randy Robertson, Senator Matt Brass, Senator Steve Gooch, Senator Jason Anavitarte, Representative Matt Reeves, former Senator Kelly Loeffler, Labor Commissioner Bruce Thompson, Lt.

Argo Corporation Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Published

on

By

TORONTO, Nov. 29, 2024 /CNW/ – Argo Corporation (TSXV: ARGH), (OTCQX: ARGHF) (“Argo” or the “Company”), a new venture delivering the first-ever vertically and publicly integrated city transit system, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 (“Q3 2024”). During the third quarter of 2024, Argo deployed its smart transit system with its first paying customers and made significant progress in restructuring prior initiatives in its publicly traded entity. 

Argo Highlights

Argo School: The Company successfully deployed its smart transit solution to a series of private schools in the Greater Toronto Area, providing end-to-end student transportation operations. Argo’s innovative technology delivers access to more flexibility and real-time tracking of students and vehicles, with unprecedented safety, reliability, and transparency for families and schools alike. The Company plans to continue to expand this solution to other private and public schools throughout Canada and abroad.Argo City: Argo’s public transit solution is the first to integrate custom software with vehicular hardware to create a network of intelligently routed vehicles that augment public transit systems with on-demand, door-to-door service. Argo City aims to reduce private car usage and increase ridership of existing public transit systems through partnership with cities, transit agencies, and governments. The Company expects to announce its first city partners in the coming months.R&D Investment: The Company’s quarterly R&D investment spend for Q3 2024 increased by 401% year-over-year. This investment reflects a significant focus on developing the Company’s proprietary vertically and publicly integrated city transit system, with significant progress in software and hardware functionality to enable seamless and reliable school and city deployments, putting people in control of their mobility.

Restructuring Updates

Vehicle Subscription: $8.5M in liabilities have been reclassified in Q3 2024 as held for sale as a result of wholly owned subsidiaries Steer EV Canada Inc. filing an assignment into bankruptcy under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act in Canada and Steer Holdings LLC, making a General Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors, pursuant to California law. The Company anticipates these liabilities will be removed in the coming quarters upon completing these legal processes, aligning with its restructuring efforts announced in the May 23, 2024, press release.Disputed Office Lease: Argo filed a statement of claim regarding a disputed office lease with landlord 8174709 Canada Inc. and the Company’s former CEO. The disputed lease represents $3.6M in liabilities and payables on the Company’s balance sheet.Sale of Financial Assets: The Company continues to engage in active sales processes for intellectual property and financial assets associated with the last venture in its publicly traded entity. In Q3 2024, the Company completed the sale of 14,200 shares of preferred stock in the capital of Westbrook Global Inc., receiving a cash payment of $750K as consideration.

FoodsUp Updates

Argo maintains a 59.95% non-controlling ownership interest in FoodsUp Inc. (“FoodsUp”), one of Canada’s leading restaurant supply platforms. In Q3 2024, FoodsUp had revenues of $28.7M, representing a 10% increase over Q2 2024 and a 61% yearly increase in quarterly revenues from Q3 2023.

The Company remains committed to implementing a transaction structure, the effect of which would be to provide the shareholders of Argo with the net proceeds from any sale of its interest in FoodsUp to a third party or an indirect or tracking ownership interest in FoodsUp in each case, as of to-be-determined record date (the “FoodsUp Divestment”). The FoodsUp Divestment, if it occurs, will mark an important step in the formal separation between the business of FoodsUp and Argo.
