AG John & Lucia O'Connor at OCPAC | EUROPEAN FARMERS REVOLT Published Monday, July 11, 2022 WE ARE MEETING This Wednesday at NOON Central Oklahoma Home Builders JOHN & LUCIA O'CONNOR debriefing at OCPAC Oklahoma’s Attorney General is a prince among men married to former Miss Oklahoma, the accomplished Lucia O’Connor. We are privileged that they continue to play a vital role in the life of the state. The O’Connors are rarities in politics who make no secret of the vital role Christianity plays in good government. This Wednesday, they will speak about what their priorities will be for the remainder of 2022 as well as their plans for 2023 and beyond. John O'Connor's support of the abolition of abortion, his lawsuits against the Biden administration’s many unconstitutional executive orders, and his A+ rating with the Oklahoma Second Amendment Association represent some of the many reasons that he has been a breath of fresh air among Oklahoma’s faith leaders and our grassroots patriots. It was recently said of him that: There has never been a more effective AG in the history of Oklahoma. Vaccine Mandates. Abortion. State sovereignty. Drilling rights. Tax incentives. Federal Overreach. Opioid settlement. Prosecuting construction fraud. Prosecuting illegal marijuana growers. McGirt. Perhaps even more profound is the impact he has had for more than forty years in the lives of Oklahoma’s young people. It is a mission which has not stopped during his service as the state’s top law enforcement official and will continue into the unforeseeable future. The Oklahoma Student Leadership Forum (OKSLF) provides youth a Christ-centered foundation upon which to make wise decisions and to develop as cultural leaders impacting government, industry, and the home. Also speaking at Wednesday’s luncheon will be Lucia O’Connor, John’s wife and former Miss Oklahoma. She will provide a unique perspective of life in Oklahoma’s affairs of state and what she hopes to see in Oklahoma’s future. John and Lucia O'Connor have four children and ten grandchildren. John and Lucia will be fielding your questions this Wednesday. ____________ BRADLEY CARTER The city of Oklahoma City's City Manager has moved to add one diversity and inclusion position and funding to implement the recommendations made by the Human Rights Task Force.

Bradley Carter is one of the stalwart conservative Christian voices on the counsel and will bring a report on what happened in the June 7th open forum in the OKC counsel meeting last week. He will provide guidance for the July 19 public comment meeting. ______________ WEDNESDAY LUNCH Central Oklahoma Home Builders 11:00 AM Doors open 11:30 AM Lunch NOON to 1:15 PM Meeting Central Oklahoma Home Builders Association 420 East Britton Road, OKC, OK 73114 SEE YOU AT THE WEDNESDAY LUNCHEON! _____________________ MEETING LOCATION Central Oklahoma Home Builders 420 East Britton Road, OKC, OK 73114 WEDNESDAY LUNCH Doors open 11:00 AM Lunch 11:30 AM Meeting NOON to 1:15 PM Entry: $5 Lunch and entrance: $15 FREE to those 18-years old and under FREE to college students 21-years old and under. _______________ OCPAC SOCIAL MEDIA OCPAC LINKS OCPAC Twitter OCPAC Instagram OCPAC Facebook Page OCPAC Facebook Group Table of Contents BOB LINN At War for Oklahoma's Future LAST WEEK Suzanne Reynolds Janet Barresi OKC REPUBLICAN WOMEN Rebekah Warwick OKLAHOMA CITY COUNCIL Human Rights Commission UNDERSTANDING THE THREAT Dismantling Hostile Networks DUTCH FARMERS REVOLT Protesting Climate Policy ______  RENEW YOUR MEMBERSHIP Renew Today  OCPAC WAR CHEST Keep us Growing for the Future Was this newsletter forwarded by a friend?

His commitment to the role of Biblical thought extend beyond Oklahoma’s legal affairs. For more than forty years, he has worked to develop these Christian ideals into the lives of Oklahoma’s best and brightest young people throughout the state. Oklahoma’s future relies on more than the work of John O’Connor and his Student Leadership Forum, however. Oklahoma’s future prosperity will require that parents are allowed to direct their own children’s education by providing them access to their educational tax dollars in order to avoid the academic poverty and twisted ideals of the "public" classrooms they are currently forced to fund. On June 22, the Wall Street Journal published a Jeff Yass article titled: Money for Children’s Education, not Schools It’s time to stop writing blank checks for a failing system. Mr. Yass is managing director and a co-founder of Susquehanna International Group. He noted that the amount of money we spend on K-12 education, adjusted for inflation, has tripled since 1970 and Americans now pay in excess of $751 billion for shockingly poor results! As School Boards 4 Kids (SB4K) chairman, Reed Downey points out, the results are less than abysmal. QUOTING JEFF YASS: “Consider a single mother of two. From kindergarten to high school graduation, the government will spend nearly $250,000 on each of her children. Yet she won’t have much of a say in how the dollars are spent. Without her consent, the bureaucrats who run the public schools will build facilities, hire teachers and plan curriculum that may leave her children far behind their peers, all at exorbitant prices … For the mission of making their lives better, we need to give parents the funds the system currently misspends.” Last week, I noted the Supreme Court’s triple play as they ruled in favor of the American Christian foundations by overturning the unconstitutional Roe v Wade, the overreach of the EPA, and acknowledged the God-given rights of our football coaches to pray in public. By the way, the victory of coach Joseph Kennedy was due in part to our own A.J. Ferate who wrote the brief which was delivered to the court. See last week's newsletter here. I failed to mention that two weeks ago (June 21, 2022), the Supreme court, in Carson v Makin, ruled that Maine cannot prevent parents from using taxpayer funds to send their children to private religious schools. It was a 6-3 decision. For details on Carson v Makin, see: The Wall Street Journal Cornell Law School TIME Magazine THE MAINE DECISION OPENS THE DOOR WIDE FOR SCHOOL CHOICE With Critical Race Theory in virtually all of our government’s schools from kindergarten through higher education, we need to spend taxpayer money on better options. Better educational options are life and death for the culture. Educational choice is life and death for Oklahoma's future. When journalist, author, and screenwriter, Michael Walsh wrote The Devil’s Pleasure Palace, he warned, “Few ideas have proven more pernicious than those of the so-called Frankfurt School and its reactionary philosophy of ‘critical theory’. At once overtly intellectualized and emotionally juvenile, Critical Theory – like Pandora’s Box-released a horde of demons into the American psyche.” It is the ideology of the Frankfurt School which has infected American education and disfigured America’s cultural landscape Walsh closes his book saying, “Such was the Frankfurt School. Having seized academia, they left a legacy of cancerous growth of 'studies' departments (gender, race, queer, whatever) that infest the modern university at the expense of classic learning. They have turned prominent institutions of what used to be called ‘higher learning’ into reeducation camps of lower learning, populating them with ‘diversity’ commissars and political officers, blunt fists in tweed jackets, sucking taxpayer money to fuel their own employment, forcing the larger population to subsidize their own theory of destruction.” Last week, week, Janet Barresi spoke briefly to our lunch crowd about a teacher in Tulsa Public Schools (TPS) who informed the state that the district had violated the ban on racist instruction in the classroom codified in SB 1775. This bold teacher has since been subject to administrative brutality. She found another brave ally when, the next day (last Thursday), Governor Stitt announced that because of the possible violations of SB1775, he was ordering an audit of every nook and cranny of Tulsa Schools (TPS). Later that evening, Ryan Walters, fierce advocate of 1775 and supporter of the Tulsa whistle blower and I spoke to 300 people at the Tulsa Marriott. There, more than 300 gathered for the monthly City Elder monthly banquet. Ryan and I spoke about education in Oklahoma. I spoke about the abuse TPS administration brought to bear on the Tulsa teacher who had come forward to uncover the violations in the district. Without knowing this teacher was in the audience, I led in prayer asking God to provide strength and boldness to this brave advocate for Tulsa’s children. Because of the prayer and support of those of us in the room, she wrote this later that evening: Thank you for encouraging our army of God to cover me in prayer! I have been growing weary in this battle and questioning my strength and ability to last much longer. I have a renewed strength in Christ tonight and will walk further into this storm. And I won’t give up until God tells me I’m done. The victory is already ours and I am thankful to be worthy of persecution in Jesus’ name! Let’s join this brave teacher in the fight for our children. We all have a part to play. At the top of the list of priorities is to encourage our legislators to listen to parents and not public-school superintendents. Also heading that list is our electing Ryan Walters as our next Superintendent of Public Instruction. __________ In 1867, John Stuart Mill said this at his inaugural address as Lord Rector of St. Andrews University: “Let not anyone pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject.” We are in desperate need of returning to our foundations. Thank you for your activism. I'll see you this Wednesday's luncheon! 11:00 AM Doors open 11:30 AM Lunch NOON to 1:15 PM Meeting Central Oklahoma Home Builders Association 420 East Britton Road, OKC, OK 73114 God bless! LAST WEEK SUZANNE REYNOLDS Woke University Societies The cultural tsunami which has swept the globe since 2020 has brought our collegiate fraternal societies to the bring of complete insanity as well. Last week, OCPAC's Suzanne Reynolds reported on the national Delta Gamma convention in Philadelphia. She made headway in identifying a number of alumni willing to take a stand against the movement to redefine humanity, selfhood, and sexuality while erecting walls of racial resentment. HEAR Suzanne at the 34-Minute Mark Rumble Facebook ___________ JANET BARRESI What began with a lone whistleblower in the Tulsa Public School system rose to a gubernatorial complaint by the end of last week. Janet Barresi spoke of the complaint that Tulsa Schools violated state law. When the Governor signed SB1775 last year, it became illegal for the schools to teach racist ideology. We now have a formal complaint which is now in the hands of the State Board of Education. On Thursday morning, Governor Stitt called for an audit of every nook and cranny of the Tulsa Public School system (TPS) to see if there have been violations of state law. HEAR JANET at the 23-Minute Mark Rumble Facebook REED DOWNEY Looking for School Board Candidates in 2023 Reed spoke for ten minutes about the state of Oklahoma's schools and the solution at hand.

Bonfires, hay bales and tractors are being used to block roads and key points of the Dutch infrastructure to fight back against this government tyranny. These protests have been going on for weeks now and involves more than 40,000 farmers. Police fired on a number of these farmers including one unarmed 16-year-old boy as he drove a tractor in an effort to leave the demonstration area. (That officer has since gone into hiding.) Dutch fishermen have joined the efforts by blockading ports. This farmer revolt against elements of the "great reset" envisioned by Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum (WEC) has now spread to Germany, Poland, and Italy.
