And it’s about time. The local media melts down as the Constitutional group begins work to restore constitutional governance in the Sooner State Legislature with some heavy hitters at the helm.

This is an opinion piece. Proceed to read with that fact in mind.

I am currently the Deputy Director in Oklahoma for the national constitutionalist group Restore Liberty. The group is simply an educational and politically active group that believes in our representative republic, restoring constitutional governance from the local governmental level on up, and a return to the founder’s vision for America. Sounds real radical, doesn’t it? America as the founder’s intended? With that said, the simple mission of the group is easier said than done in today’s media climate, shamelessly carrying the water of certain governmental agencies’ and officials’ false narrative of painting anything and everything patriotic as a domestic threat.
We are a threat. NOT to our country or government or our fellow Americans.
We are an intellectual, ideological, and spiritual existential threat to the communists attempted take over and destruction of this country by any means necessary. They really don’t understand Americans, and it shows when a simple patriot organization attempting to defend the actual founding vision of this country and our constitution brings confusion as to what constitutes the ‘ultra’ or ‘far right’ politically. The communists have had the floor unchallenged for long enough.
Restore Liberty has a lot in common with the State Freedom Caucus and the goals of the organizations are very similar, if not the same: preserving the constitution for every American and restoring the founding vision for this country, by holding lawmakers accountable to their campaign promises and defeating them at the ballot box when they don’t live up to those promises, as well as preserving freedom and the God-given inherent and inalienable rights of all citizens. And that includes the freedom of the tens of millions of Christians that live in this country.
According to the various media outlets in Oklahoma, publishing in lockstep with very little variation of the coverage, the Freedom Caucus, who launched their latest branch here in Oklahoma this past week, is a bunch of ultra right wing, trouble making rogue Republican lawmakers in states across the country who are calling out their own party on their lack of true conservative principles, and calling the ‘conservative’ pretenders out for who they are…pretenders.
You’d have thought that they had announced the formation of an organization to jail Santa Claus.
Conservative stalwarts Shane Jett, Nathan Dahm, Jim Olsen, and newcomers Dana Prieto and minister Dusty Deevers will lead this inaugural group of lawmakers, and they are no strangers to taking it on the chin for their conservative beliefs at the Capitol, in the media, or online for their tenacity in pushing the legislature to do the will of the people of Oklahoma. Nathan Dahm has been given credit, widely, for the strict abortion laws that have passed the legislature since Roe vs Wade was, rightly, sent back to the states to decide. Shane Jett is known for submitting common sense legislation that many times ends up buried, as he steps on the toes of leadership that needs their toes stepped on according to many Oklahomans. He was one of the first in the state in 2021 to listen to public citizen investigators, myself included, regarding the problems in Oklahoma in the matter of election integrity. Now that subject is gaining steam across the state as people begin to see and question many things that don’t add up after every election in the Sooner State. He continues to listen to solutions being brought by the veterans of the subject as well as work to propose legislation that will help correct our problematic elections system.
In articles and news reports across my internet search engine’s results page, the Journal Record, KOCO, The Oklahoma Voice (which almost reads like a copy and paste of the Journal Record’s article), ABC 7, KGOU, Tulsa World, a blog that’s had delusions of grandeur for several years now, aka The Lost Ogle (who really has ‘lost’ it, their reaction essentially telling people in this state that the Freedom Caucus is directly over the target of the far left, and who, incidentally, seem to believe that minority tyranny is somehow ‘freedom’), OU Daily (which also reads like a copy and paste of the Journal Record’s article), the McAlester News (another copy and paste of the Journal Record’s article), an opinion article in the Journal Record, and last, but definitely not least, The Oklahoman (whose photographer seems to think that people in red, white, and blue patriotic clothing are ultra right wing lunatics instead of common sense Americans who believe the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, because it rightly says it is and they like it that way), to a publication all seem to come unglued at the fact that conservatives are now refusing to continue to be gaslit into having the founding documents and supreme law of the land take a backseat to the legislative and administrative undermining of the supreme law, the culture, and the God given inherent rights of all human beings.
As a matter of fact, you have to go out of the state of Oklahoma to get a neutral and perhaps even a favorable news article on the State Freedom Caucus and it’s newest chapter in Oklahoma. The Federalist is the only article populating my search results with a mainstream viewpoint of an organization that believes in the preservation of every citizen’s constitutional rights, including the 2nd Amendment, 1st Amendment, parental rights, and the list goes on and on. In other words, fighting to preserve the man on the street’s definition of freedom and liberty. The man on the street who is, quite frankly, tired of being told by a vocal minority that these life breathing ideals given to the founders by God are somehow outdated while children are being brainwashed and mutilated against their parent’s wishes by state government actors and doctors who are more interested in a paycheck than treating an induced mental illness, agendas are being pushed in public schools that are completely alien to most parents and their values, their elections are being stolen, criminals are committing crimes with impunity, the border has been destroyed and criminals are pouring into this country, private businesses and the government are pushing experimental medical substances and deadly hospital treatment protocols on the unsuspecting population in the name of tens of billions of dollars in government money while the doctors and hospitals violate their patients’ bodies, their dignity, and their God given rights nine ways to Sunday in the name of the god of ‘public health’, the government is labeling patriots as ‘domestic terrorists’ while holding innocent Americans in prison for years for walking on the grounds of their own public building, 15 minute cities and surveillance tools are being launched across the country, the government is buying all the land and attempting to bring in foreign companies to steal our resources with our own borrowed tax money and partnering in these goals with NGO’s who are laughing all the way to the bank, all while ‘retraining and reeducating’ the population to hold out their hats and say ‘Please Sir, may I have another’, in some modern version of Dickens’ Oliver Twist. A huge thank you for that very appropriate analogy goes to the great Jarrin Jackson of Claremore, fighting the common law battle in this state nearly alone for the last several years.
Just two days after announcing the formation of the Oklahoma Chapter of the Freedom Caucus, members of the group are taking on the Governor of Oklahoma regarding a task force on illegal immigration he created and their dubious recommendations regarding illegal immigrants in the state. There are people in Oklahoma that claim to be conservatives who seem desperate to give people breaking the law to come into the country the means to lawfully drive on our streets, but the grassroots of this state know that ‘legal’ paperwork means de facto citizenship without merit, the right to government assistance, and the bastardization of our right to vote using private NGO organizations who match drivers records to voter rolls. There is also the national voter registration application and card that allows voting in federal elections that all states must take. There is no citizenship ID required to apply for this card. See Page 3 of the Instructions, Item 6. They know that people have been given paperwork to ‘disappear’ into the system mimicking citizens as soon as they hit US soil. NPR wrote an article about fake social security numbers being used by illegals back in 2019, and now the press is doing everything it can to tell US citizens that it isn’t happening. The issue of the border, security, and the governor’s willingness to take people into the state without vetting them has been a concern of the grassroots citizens of Oklahoma for the past couple of years. The fact that there is a Mexican Consulate in Oklahoma City is also a grave concern to the citizens of this state. There have been many groups and individuals calling on the governor to put the breaks on these controversial policies to no avail. If anything, he seems to double down on the dangerous, and that leaves Oklahomans scratching their heads, especially the ones who have experienced the problems and headaches that come along with having a less than pleasant experience with people inside our border who, by our laws, shouldn’t be here.
It looks like the Freedom Caucus is hitting the ground running in Oklahoma to help address many of the issues that a large portion of the population of this state has wanted to have addressed for the last several years.
Like I said in the title to this article, it’s about time the people have actual representation for their interests and their priorities in the Oklahoma state legislature, which is supposed to be organized in a republican form of government, guaranteed to the states by the US Constitution. When the people are ignored and elections are stolen, no consensual republican form of governance exists. With the election coming up in November and federal agencies threatening the population with further violations of their inherent rights by labeling them domestic terrorists for simply questioning their officials, a time honored inalienable right, We The People will need all the voices joining with us that we can get in order to straighten out this country.
Please pray, above all, that God sees fit to allow the people their choice on election day, and that with that the country can begin to be restored and healed after the stolen 2020 election and incompetent, at best, governance the last four years by a regime that many people believe, and I would argue KNOW, has been holding authority in our government without our consent.
‘We The People, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty, for ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.’
If you read the preamble to the Constitution while singing the School House Rock version in your head, we can be friends.
God bless the Freedom Caucus, Restore Liberty, and the great State of Oklahoma and this nation.
