A J FERATE: OKLAHOMA JUDGES | 120 ADMIRALS & GENERALS FORM COALITION Published Monday, May 17, 2021 This week at the Oklahoma City Golf & Country Club AT NOON WEDNESDAY Oklahoma City Golf & Country Club  A.J. Ferate Conservative Attorney RETURNING SANITY TO THE COURTS A.J. Ferate is one of the rare lawyers who did not lose his ability to think rationally about the U.S. Constitution while in law school. He still appreciates the original intent of the U.S. legal system. He advocates for its capacity, in its original form, to govern a people while providing Christian liberty. That is, after all, why it was put into place to begin with. He is President of the local Federalist Society chapter. The Federalist Society was founded to counter the current domination of law school ideology. The Federalist Society states that today's law schools promote a “liberal ideology which advocates a centralized and uniform society.” The society promotes the idea that “the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what the law should be.” For twelve years, A.J. has also been the General Counsel of the Oklahoma Republican Party. We have asked him to speak to OCPAC because he is on the front lines of the conservative legal movement. He will discuss some of the better ways available to select Oklahoma judges. A.J. wants to also discuss decisions the U.S. Supreme Court has handed down. There have been some decisions which have been more pro-life than those of our own Oklahoma court. Hear ways conservatives can more closely follow Oklahoma courtrooms in order to become a force for a return to the original intent of the fixed constitutional law which protects the liberties of all. ___________________ ALSO ON WEDNESDAY A LEGISLATOR WHO FOUGHT FOR THE CHURCH AND WON We will be meeting this Senator for the first time. He is the Assistant Floor Leader in the Oklahoma House and the director of the House Page Program. Brian authored the Religious Freedom Act (HB 2648 & SB 368) to ensure that our 1st Amendment rights to Gather for Church are protected and that our Assemblings for Worship are protected as Essential. Representative Hill states: This fundamental Right should never have been impeded in America. These two new laws clarify this: In Oklahoma, we will not tolerate such overreach. TRAINING IN ACTIVISIM We will help you bring your phone into the arsenal of our war against secularism.

BOB LINN Secularism and the Courts Once grounded in constitutional bedrock, “The Court” is now a self-determined cartel mandating legislative authority over federal, state, and local governments. Having mandated the right to abortion and sodomy, it has been a force not for constitutional scholarship, but for leftist social engineering. As you and I slept, our constitutional republic was being usurped. The core may be traced to Eden’s apple and the age-old sin of Adam. America has jettisoned the Biblical foundations of her founders in exchange for the imaginations of men who no longer reverence their Creator. The 1859 publication of Darwin’s Origin of the Species began an unholy cultural tide which unraveled our national fabric on many fronts. We were introduced to racist anthropology, theological skepticism, and moral relativism. We were released from the Law of God, the cornerstone of American jurisprudence. The Court no longer saw the words of the constitution as immutable (except by legislative amendment), but as evolving in Darwin’s stylish secularism by judicial decree. The impact of Charles Darwin’s ideas caught the attention of many in the field of legal jurisprudence. Yale professor Dr. Fred V. Cahill was one who saw the impact with great clarity. In 1952, Dr. Cahill, stated that Darwin’s theory “was an event of transcending importance to the development of American jurisprudence … This involved a shift from the rationalistic, deductive pattern of the pre-Darwinian period, to the empirical, evolutionary approach that is followed today.” With the loosening of ties to our nation's Constitution came a focus in the legal community on case law. In the 1870s, the Dean of Harvard Law School, Christopher Langdell, introduced Darwinian thought to Harvard’s legal education. He jettisoned traditional Blackstonian law for what is now called “case law” (judicial court decisions). Rather than studying the legislative law (the Constitution, for example), our future lawyers and judges focused on “case law” (judicial opinions rendered in the courts). Langdell’s new direction was revolutionary. Harvard students were taught that law was ever-changing. It evolved through the written opinions of appellate judges. This was completely the opposite of Blackstonian law which held that judges’ opinions were not law. With Langdell (and just about everyone since), judicial opinion was indeed considered new law! It was in 1918 that President Woodrow Wilson, a Princeton man, followed the Harvard direction in his perspective on the role of the judiciary as a challenger to the role of the U.S. Constitution. Wilson stated of the U.S. Constitution, “It is modified by its environment, necessitated by its tasks…Living political constitutions must be Darwinian in structure and in practice … “evolution” is the scientific word to interpret the constitution according to the Darwinian principle.” How do we get back on track? We must reclaim our pulpits for Christ! As long as pastors refuse to bear the mantle of Biblical prophets and cultural leader, we will continue in decline. Reclaiming the culture means the transformation of our educational institutions, our entertainment, and our news media. Like the citizens of the 16thand 17th centuries, we need preachers to light the way. We must so recover our Biblical foundations that we see government and education as our founders did. Biblical thinkers like Supreme Court Judge Joseph Story serve as examples to show us the way. Joseph Story served on the Court from 1812 to 1845. His service was so distinguished and filled with accomplishment that his life was center stage in the Stephen Spielberg film, Amistad. In his essay on natural law, he wrote that “the whole duty of man” is to ascertain and obey the will of God! There is a war raging to remove the Christian foundations of our nation. Forces of evil have attacked the American constitution and the culture it protects for more than a century. We have a divine calling to prevent the enemy of Christianity and the American Republic it created to achieve their objective. Our activism is not optional. I'll see you this Wednesday! God bless! LAST WEEK U.S. SPACE FORCE Last Wednesday provided a profoundly interesting presentation of the necessity of protecting our orbiting satellites. Former head Jim Bridenstine was engaging and highly informed. Worth listening to a second time. Senator Warren Hamilton opened in prayer and Senator Joe Newhouse, a former aide to then Congressman Bridenstine, led the pledge. Senator Nathan Dahm commented on remaining legislation and closed the meeting in prayer. Steve Anderson: Interstate Compacts at the 9:00 minute mark here.

Their website announces their purpose: "Our Nation is in deep peril. We are in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776. The conflict is between supporters of Socialism and Marxism vs. supporters of Constitutional freedom and liberty. Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the “will of the people” our Constitutional Republic is lost. Election integrity demands insuring there is one legal vote cast and counted per citizen. Legal votes are identified by State Legislature’s approved controls using government IDs, verified signatures, etc. Today, many are calling such commonsense controls “racist” in an attempt to avoid having fair and honest elections. Using racial terms to suppress proof of eligibility is itself a tyrannical intimidation tactic. Additionally, the “Rule of Law” must be enforced in our election processes to ensure integrity. The FBI and Supreme Court must act swiftly when election irregularities are surfaced and not ignore them as was done in 2020. Finally, H.R.1 & S.1, (if passed), would destroy election fairness and allow Democrats to forever remain in power violating our Constitution and ending our Representative Republic. Aside from the election, the Current Administration has launched a full-blown assault on our Constitutional rights in a dictatorial manner, bypassing the Congress, with more than 50 Executive Orders quickly signed, many reversing the previous Administration’s effective policies and regulations. Moreover, population control actions such as excessive lockdowns, school and business closures, and most alarming, censorship of written and verbal expression are all direct assaults on our fundamental Rights. We must support and hold accountable politicians who will act to counter Socialism, Marxism and Progressivism, support our Constitutional Republic, and insist on fiscally responsible governing while focusing on all Americans, especially the middle class, not special interest or extremist groups which are used to divide us into warring factions. We welcome others to join with us as we continue our effort to defend the U.S. Constitution and the American way of life." Find their website here.

Register today on eventbrite here. (The Institute for Cultural Renewal is the OCPAC 501c3.) This past weekend, Curtis Bowers pointed us to the positive comments the Communist Party U.S.A. (CPUSA) made on May 7 about the use of the Oval Office by Joe Biden. By the way, unlike so many years when the CPUSA ran their own candidate for President, in 2020, their announced candidate was Democrat Joe Biden. ______________ From the Co-Chair of the CPUSA, Rosanna Cambron May 7, 2021 An assessment of the Biden Administration’s first 100 days on labor, environment, international policy, immigration, and African American and LGBTQ equality. To begin, it is a refreshing feeling to hear the president make sense when he speaks. That is not to say that I agree with all that he is putting forth, but it is coherent. It has been a long time that I have heard a president talk about raising the minimum wage, a plan for creating jobs, recognition of climate change and how to address it, and ending loopholes for big corporations that pay no taxes. This is big. It is also important when he openly states that “trickle down has never worked” or that “White Supremacy is terrorism.” Key to keep in mind is that he is addressing many of the demands that movements across the country have been calling for. It is important to recognize that the movements have forced the issues which he is addressing. It is the movements that must continue the pressure because, as we all know, the president can’t make it all happen on his own. It’s not up to Congress; it’s up to the people to pressure Congress and the Senate to make it happen. — Rosanna Cambron, Co-Chair, CPUSA Read the story on the Communist Party USA website here. It is obvious that the anti-America groups at work in the United States today are presenting a message which resonates with the occupants of the White House. Their intent is to destroy the American "system." We are at war with a well-coordinated cadre bent on the destruction of America and the Christianity which represents its foundations of freedom and liberty. Our work is at hand and our activism is not an option. There have been successful push-backs in this spring's legislature thanks to the calls and emails many of you sent. We will hear from one of our legislative heroes this Wednesday. Our activism is not optional. The church and the nation require it. Below is the article of another Oklahoma hero, Ryan Walters, waging the fight against the Marxist Critical Race Theory. Read Curtis Bowers' entire AGENDA WEEKLY here. Listen to the audio here. Subscription is only $5 per month! RYAN WALTERS Defending 1775 The Ban on CRT Last week, Ryan Walters published an article in the Tulsa World defending the ban on the racist messaging inherent in Critical Race Theory. From the Tulsa World by Ryan Walters As a history teacher, it is important to me that students receive an accurate depiction of the past. In order for students to grasp the full lessons of history, students must see both the moments that made America great, as well as those moments we fell woefully short of the principles of liberty espoused in our founding documents. So how does the passage of HB 1775 change my role as a history teacher? It doesn’t. HB 1775 explicitly states that teachers shall not be prohibited from teaching the Oklahoma Academic Standards, which were written by Oklahoma educators and include events like the emergence of Black Wall Street, the Tulsa Race Massacre, the Oklahoma City lunch counter sit-ins led by Clara Luper, and the Trail of Tears. I know this because I was one of the educators that wrote the standards prior to being named Oklahoma’s secretary of education. This bill would not censor history or make it difficult for teachers to teach about the painful moments of our past. What this bill will do is ensure that Oklahoma students in grades K-12 will not be instructed by their teachers that one race is inherently superior to another race. Students may not be taught they are “oppressors” because of their race or sex. Teachers may not mandate as part of a course that a student should feel discomfort or guilt on account of a student’s race or sex. Schools must make clear that it is unacceptable to judge a peer based on his or her race or sex. In short, HB 1775 safeguards Oklahoma schools from state-sponsored racism and sexism. There are tragic consequences when young people do not see that all men and women are created equal under God. This year we will recognize the 100—year anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre, a horrific stain on our state and our nation’s history that arose from a dangerous disregard for the dignity of human life and the evils of racism. As Oklahoma educators, it is our responsibility to teach this tragedy to our students. It is also our responsibility to teach our past without prejudging those responsible for our future. We must also teach about the imperfect individuals who made this country the greatest nation in the world. We must teach about the foresight and wisdom of Thomas Jefferson, who recognized the unalienable rights of all Americans in the Declaration of Independence. We must teach the bravery and confidence of Abraham Lincoln, who reaffirmed post-Civil War “a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” We must teach the courage and heroism of individuals like Martin Luther King, Jr., who called for our country to live up to the principles of equality and liberty espoused by the founders of our country. This bill does not fix all our problems, but it does make clear that in Oklahoma we will not allow our students to be exposed to radical government-mandated indoctrination that teaches students to define themselves by the color of their skin color rather than the content of their character. There is always progress to be made, but teaching our children to focus on what unites us rather than what divides us is a pretty good place to start. And that is a great lesson for us all. STATE AUDITOR 168 Days NO CREDENTIALS TO CONDUCT GOVERNMENT AUDITS by Bob Linn At 168 days, I still have not received many of the elements of my Open Records request of last year. I am wanting to know how the Oklahoma Department of Health scammed the Oklahoma taxpayer out of $30 million and used the scam to fire 198 rural healthcare worker all across the state. Two weeks ago, the paid media representative of the state auditor, Cindy Byrd, informed us that her registration with the Oklahoma Accountancy Board is registered under Cynthia Byrd. This was a surprise, as it is a name she has not used on the voter ballot and the SA&I web site. The attorneys we are working with indicated they would never have thought to look for this alias. The chart above is found at the Oklahoma Accountancy Board here. We now know that our state auditor does not have the credentials to perform the task for which we elected her. She has no certification to perform government audits. Clearly, we need a new state auditor. A CPA who checks all the boxes. Steve Anderson, by the way, is not a candidate. Perhaps Cindy, AKA Cynthia, will have an answer for us before another 168 days pass by. Cindy (Cynthia?) Byrd would have done herself a favor by simply complying 161 days ago with the information about the Oklahoma Health Department audits. On January 27, 2021, Steve Anderson made his first presentation at OCPAC regarding the situation. Watch January's OCPAC meeting video here. Steve begins speaking at just past the 7 minute mark Lack of transparency in government is a grave concern to all taxpayers. I will keep you updated.

PRIOR WEEK ENTRIES of Continued Importance  ENEMIES WITHIN THE CHURCH By Bob Linn Pastor Cary Gordon narrates this soon-to-be-released film exposing the Marxist infiltration into America's churches, seminaries, and Christian missionary movements. Those involved in the film include Trevor Loudon and Curtis Bowers. This film exposes shocking developments throughout the entire breadth of 21st century Christendom. Protestants, Catholics, and the Orthodox church have been infiltrated. Our beloved evangelistic organizations have seen wolves in sheep's clothing rise to the very top. The head of the Russian Orthodox church is a KGB agent. The Pope is a Marxist. The evangelical church has been deeply penetrated. That penetration goes to the very top of institutions we thought were rock solid. This includes the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), the Southern Baptist Church, the former Campus Crusade for Christ (now, CRU), and many others. The evidence is iron clad. I was on the staff of Campus Crusade for Christ and worked with founder and President, Dr. Bill Bright. Sadly, I have been made aware that Marxist concepts have become pervasive at their national conferences over the past few years. It is both clear and stunning. Marxist language is now a part of their programs on campuses throughout the nation. I've also spent many years in the Southern Baptist Church. In addition, my wife and I founded a PCA church in our living room many years ago. In spite of my close relationship with all these institutions, the evidence of their fall from Godliness is overwhelming. In the near future, I plan to focus on the developments within the organization I once knew as Campus Crusade for Christ. It is important to expose these enemies who have crept into Christendom. These have entered our Christian institutions in an effort to destroy the Church. The "gospel" they promote will bear no fruit. Marxist ideology mixed with Bible verses will produce neither salvation nor the health, peace, and prosperity of civilizations. Marxist concepts like social justice, critical race theory and the myths inherent in the concept of "white privilege" are ungodly, contrary to all of the Scriptures, and represent evil and destructive weapons designed to destroy the church, the family, and societies. They are drenched in narcissism and hatred. These ideas, now permeating most of our seminaries and academic institutions (beginning in elementary school), will soon destroy the nation if we do not expose them for the evil they represent. PLEASE HELP US FINISH THIS PROJECT BY CONTRIBUTING HERE. $40,000 is needed to complete the film. Consider the opportunity prayerfully. Thanks! Watch the Trailer here. ARCHIVES ...
