Reclaiming America's Identity

Donald J. Trump Rediscovers America
The President’s State of the Union was a stunning and bold restatement of values Americans once considered anchored in the unshakable foundations of civilized society. Decades of ideological decline and polite accommodation to voices irreparably unhinged ended with national dementia and the “Biden years.”
The thought that America could have needed last week’s State of the Union would have been unimaginable even fifty years ago. We fell quickly from the vision of Franklin and Jefferson of America as the new Israel, a god-fearing land of promise.

In his book, The Second Treatise of Government, John Locke said:
“In the beginning all the world was America.”
He was referring to what was a fresh start for the towering culture of the West. In a virgin and undeveloped America, government would be reimagined. New ideas would better mankind and the society he would develop. Harvard’s Robert Bellah, in his book The Broken Covenant, spoke of the “newness of the American experiment in the eyes of its European onlookers.
He said:
Thus America came to be thought of as a paradise and a wilderness, with all of the rich associations of those terms in the Christian and biblical traditions.

Reagan understood that the world needed a shining city on a hill. In his farewell speech on January 11, 1989, he said:
I’ve spoken of the shining city all my political life . . . a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, windswept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace . . . After 200 years, two centuries, she still stands strong and true on the granite ridge, and her glow has held no matter what storm . . . God bless you, and God bless the United States of America.
Like Reagan, Trump understands the dependence of the free world on the strength of America. Unlike Reagan, Trump is faced with a cultural rebuilding project.

Underneath our military and economic strength must lie ideological culture-building substance. It was early on that the President announced that WOKE’s destructive presence in our schools, our military, our medical community, and our government have come to an end.
He said to the joint session of congress (and to the nation) last week:
We have removed the poison of critical race theory from our public schools and I signed as order making the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders . . . and now, I want congress to pass a bill permanently banning and criminalizing sex changes on children and forever ending the lie that any child is trapped in the wrong body.
The cultural battle the President is fighting will require equal tenacity by the states.
Last week witnessed wholesomeness in Washington, D.C. while here in Oklahoma, came the shocking revelation that students in a psychology class in Waurika High School were being sexualized.
| |
Psychology teacher and high school basketball coach, Roger Jesse, asked his students to complete a sex questionnaire. The survey asked them to answer thirty sexually explicit and morally perverted questions far too filthy to print in this newsletter.
The questions coach Jesse asked his students to answer are provided through a link at the bottom of one of the many articles here.
Be warned of the pornographic content
of the high school psychology quationaire.
Ryan Walters will need the cooperation of Oklahoma’s Governor and Legislature. School board members across the state need to reflect on their capacity to serve.

We will prosper only when we return to the faith of the founders and when we can say as a nation, as President Thomas Jefferson said in his second inaugural address on March 4, 1805:
I shall need the favor of that Being in whose hands we are, who led our fathers, as Israel of old, from their native land and planted them in a country flowing with all the necessaries and comforts of life.
Who has covered our infancy with His providence and our riper years with His wisdom and power.
And to whose goodness I ask you to join in supplication with me that He so enlighten the minds of your servants, guide their councils, and prosper their measures that whatsoever they do shall result in your good, and shall secure to you the peace, friendship, and approbation of all the nations.
Both Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin felt America's image should be of Israel who, having crossed the Red Sea, witnessed the evisceration of Egypt’s military power.
| |
James Madison, close friend to Jefferson, served as the nation’s third president. He closed his first inaugural address on March 4, 1809, speaking of:
The guardianship and guidance of the Almighty Being whose power regulated the destiny of nations, whose blessings have been so conspicuously dispensed to this rising Republic, and to whom we are bound to address our devout gratitude for the past, as well as our fervent supplications for the future.
Last week, the President followed in the footsteps of every U.S. President before him by acknowledging the divine path of American history. For Trump, it was very personal as it was the near miss of an assassin’s bullet in Butler, Pennsylvania that became the dramatic shot heard around the world that God had just entered America’s political fray and endorsed Donald J. Trump as America’s next president.
| |
He closed by acknowledging that the hand of God that delivered to the colonies their independence from a tyrant continued to engage in this 250-year-old political experiment to see if men could live a life of freedom and prosperity. He said:
I believe that my life was saved that day in Butler for a very good reason. I was saved by God to make America great again. I believe that. Thank you very much . . . Now it is our time to take up the righteous cause of American liberty, and it is our turn to take America’s destiny into our own hands and begin the most thrilling days in the history of our country . . . God bless you.
The great news for America is that 76% of viewers approved of the speech. This came from a CBS survey Tuesday night. CNN also did a poll. They discovered 69% approved.

It was a profound privilege last week to fly Brazilian Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro to our capitol to speak at the OCPAC Foundation meeting at the Oklahoma History Center, to meet with Governor Kevin Stitt, and greet members of the Oklahoma Senate.
| |
His father, former Brazilian President, Jair Bolsonaro, continues to endure harassment from the communist dictator that the Biden administration helped put in power through USAID.
Former University of Oklahoma Wrestling coach, Jack Spates, Building Bridges President, Poncho Hobbes, and Bob Linn gathered around Eduardo as Senator Shane Jett prayed for God's guidance for the Bolsonaro family and for Brazil.
| Pray for Brazil that their dignity as a people will be restored under a second Bolsonaro presidency and enjoy the resurgence of Javier Milei’s Argentina and Trump’s USA! | |
Thank you all for being a part of the
preservation of truth in our Oklahoma culture!

SENATOR SHANE JETT
EXPLAINS HIS
BRAZIL CONNECTIONS
| |
Next to Donald Trump, Senator Jett is the best known American statesman in Brazil. His connections date back to the work he did there as a part of his university degree program in international business.
He has maintained contact with key players there including with the Bolsonaro family. Jair Bolsonaro is the Donald Trump of Brazil and is the only hope Brazil people have of re-discovering the freedoms the communist party has removed.
One of the things Eduardo Bolsonaro told us was that it was Joe Biden and USAid that funded the communist insurgence which removed his dad from the presidency.
