Aidy Burr is an American politician, secessionist, former dictator, and party official currently serving as the Senior Senator from South Carolina (2030-2037, 2050-present) and as co-chair of the Humanity First party. He was previously a member of the Working Liberation party before co-founding the GDS (Government Does Stuff) Party, an electoral union between WLP and the Greens.

He previously served as Secretary of Defense under the Xandy and Wabbit administrations in the (now defunct) First MEGS Government, and Dictator of the (now defunct) Democratic People's Republic of Texas. After a 13-year hiatus, he retook his old senate seat as a member of the New Democratic party, was made the party's co-chairman in 2053, and was rapidly promoted to Chairman in 2054. In 2055, he dissolved the NDP entirely, co-founded the Liberal Democratic Party, and immediately left to join Humanity First.

## Early Life

Aidy was born in Houston, Texas on February 6th, 2005. After trying and failing to start many businesses, he attempted to secede land in western Texas in 2014. The plan ultimately failed due to Aidy's militia running out of ammo at the Battle of Amogusville, and was forced to retreat. He then went into hiding for several decades, receiving cosmetic makeup from several surgeons during this time to keep his identity a secret. He eventually emerged from hiding and began a career in politics.

## Involvement In First MEGS Government

Aidy emerged as an early supporter of then Senator Xandy's campaign for the first MEGS Government Presidency. After Xandy's election, Aidy was appointed Secretary of Defense, which he renamed to Secretary of War. His reasoning was because "It's more accurate to what I'm doing." Aidy was considered to be one of the most controversial members of Xandy's government, supporting large-scale secession movements and even bombing several allies in a miscalculated strike against Mock ISIS.

Despite his numerous controversies, he was re-appointed to the position for the duration of Xandy's second term and continued to serve in the position during the early years of Wabbit's administration. During Wabbit's administration, he saw continued hostility toward his actions in the middle east, in particular his callous disregard to bombing civilian targets in Saudi Arabia.

## Texas Independence/Rise To Power

Aidy's hostility towards the Wabbit administration increased over differences in the Texas independence referendum. Aidy supported the rights of Texans to secede from the United States while President Wabbit vehemently opposed secession. Following failed negotiations, Aidy withdrew from the Wabbit administration and forcefully became Dictator of Texas, threatening war if President Wabbit did not agree to see Texas gained full independence. Wabbit agreed to Aidy's terms, and Aidy recruited former President Xandy to serve as his second-in-command, and former Washington Governor Rowan to serve as his official ambassador to the United States.

Following diplomatic hostility between the 2 countries, and talks of boycotting Texan belt buckles, Aidy began nuclear testing in case of war. After continuing negotiations, President Wabbit agreed to sign an act reinserting Texas independence, and removal of all troops within 200 miles of both their borders.

## Rogue League of Nations

In response to possible sanctions being placed on Texas over Aidy's dictatorial nature and rapid nuclear testing, Aidy joined the newly created Rogue League of Nations created by President of Egypt Heely. Aidy made many alliances within the organization and made several militancy plans with foreign powers, in particular, a plan with Cuban dictator Fidel Castro to team up with a small, nationalist, pro-independence movement within the state of Florida with the goal of eventually seceding it from the USA.

Aidy also used the League to support the Chili Pepper militia, a militancy group in New Mexico founded by Xandy that was dedicated to secession.

## New Mexican Crisis

After a referendum held in New Mexico which showed the majority of the population wanted to be a part of Texas, President Wabbit issued a statement publicly opposing the movement, claiming that the referendum was rigged as it was being held by Aidy and Xandy personally. Aidy rejected this notion, claiming the referendum was legitimate. After Aidy's resolution to secede 1/3 the population of New Mexico was unanimously rejected by the United States Senate, Aidy sent Ambassador Rowan to claim Albuquerque and hold the city in siege. During Rowan's invasion, Aidy and Wabbit reached an agreement to allow New Mexico to remain part of the union, but to allow free travel association between the citizens of New Mexico and Texas. When Aidy attempted to call Rowan's invasion off, however, Rowan had already claimed the city independently and seceded from Texas. Aidy then declared a joint war on Rowan's militia alongside President Wabbit, though Texas provided only 1/5th the soldiers the United States did.

While under siege, Rowan leaked confidential documents showing Aidy had no interest in solving the crisis, and was only using it as an excuse to gain territory in New Mexico he had no intention of giving back. After Wabbit took notice, he pushed Aidy's troops back into Texas and fully invaded Albuquerque. Rowan, fearing capture, bombed the city and fled to Egypt. A few months following the incident, the first Megs Government was dissolved, and Aidy returned to civilian life as an entrepreneur.

## Involvement in Second MEGS Government

After being invited back by Xandy to join the newly established MEGS Government, Aidy ran and was elected to serve as Senator for South Carolina in the 2030 elections as a member of the Working Liberation party. Aidy achieved very little in government, outside of spats with other party leaders and multiple attempts to keep the party unified. Following the Green Party split from the WLP, Aidy entered hostile negotiations with Senators Tag and Bodega over the creation of the new party, arguing that it was secessionist and "splitting up an already barely-existing vote." After Senator Tag agreed to talks of reunification into a new party, the now dubbed GDS (Government Does Stuff) Party was formed. Aidy served as the party's first chairman, and held the first presidential convention. Aidy also held the first ever Party Primary in MEGS history in 2036. Candidates included Former Presidents Wabbit and Xandy, Senator Tag, and many others. After a ranked choice vote, Tag and Wabbit advanced to the runoff. Tag initially won the general election and walked in with the most delegates, however, with Xandy's support, Wabbit won the runoff election, choosing Senator Heely as his running mate.

Soon after the nominating convention, in 2037, Aidy chose to leave politics again, taking a 13 year hiatus.

After finding success in life and finally graduating high school, Aidy rejoined MEGS Government, taking back his old Senate Seat in an unopposed election. He was made co-chairman of the party in 2053, and briefly co-hosted the annual Gecko News show with Senators Chase and Bernie.

In 2054 he was named Chairman of the NDP. During this time, Aidy negotiated a controversial treaty with Libertarian Socialist Party (LSP) Chairman, Senator Melon. Aidy's treaty at first offered the LSP to vote in the primaries in return for them not running a candidate in the general election, after this was tossed out, Aidy offered the LSP the vice presidential slot at the party's primary, allowing them to run their own candidates for Vice President. After prolonged negotiations, both the NDP and LSP voted in favor of the treaty, and Senator Melon announced his run for Vice President.

When the primaries were held, there were 6 NDP contenders for the presidency and only Senator Melon running for the LSP vice presidency. After RCV was complete, Vice President Astro won the party nomination on the first ballot, winning 56% of the vote.

In 2055, Aidy dissolved the NDP over infighting in President Beto's administration among other concerns. He formed, along with Senator Chase, the Liberal Democrats Party and 5 minutes later left to join Vice President Astro's newly formed Humanity First Party. Shortly after the 2056 elections, Aidy was elected co-chairman. Shortly after the inauguration, Aidy played the song "Here I go again" by Whitesnake for several hours straight.

## Legislation

In 2053, Aidy co-authored, along with Senator Powers of New Mexico, the Green Powers act, which regulated energy plants and other energy production sites to more environmentally-friendly standards.

In 2054, Aidy authored the Admins Compensation Act which, after stalled negotiations, sent 300 hugs to board of admins director Wabbit. Also in 2054, he attempted to rally the NDP behind the Montana Independence Act, and negotiated to have Section 6, which would've allowed current federal officeholders to keep their seats, removed from the bill. The act did not pass, however when Senator Manchin left the senate in protest, Aidy lamented "well I guess I get what I want either way lol" implying he never cared for independence and just wanted political opposition out of office. In addition, he also co-sponsored Viktor's Dueling Act, making dueling legal for consenting adults.

During the 2056 Turkish-Nazi Crisis, Aidy voted to authorize military action against the Nazi forces 3 times, and voted to pay the 2 billion dollar ransom for Governor Thomas release from foreign detainment.

## Controversies

While negotiating for the NDP-LSP Joint Ticket Treaty, Aidy engaged in dirt-slinging with LSP members who were reluctant about the treaty and was consistently berating his own party for suggesting they cut ties with the LSP due to their high demands. Aidy's behavior during the negotiation process was at one point considered "the main reason the LSP won't pass this treaty" by Senator Melon. Aidy later apologized for his behavior, citing stress from negotiating with both sides and not being able to determine what either side wanted from the deal.

Aidy is also infamous for getting hot-headed very easily during debate, often over issues he cares about personally and are easily proven. He's been noted as using degrading insults, overtly dramatic hypotheticals to proving his points and has a loose cannon regarding people he's talked to previously. Senator Manchin once said of Aidy "he chooses to do the bad thing and make his opponent feel bad instead of doing the right thing and teaching them."

Aidy is also known for having a terrible memory so most of these quotes aren't word for word but they're pretty close. (and if they're not gimme a break its like 4 am)

## Aidyism

In 2019, Aidy founded Aidyism, the ideology of Aidy. To this day, there are at least 2 followers of Aidyism.
