Pretty Shocking: Oklahoma All-In On ESG and Green Energy!

While researching the ‘green agenda’ in Oklahoma and companies attempting to install wind turbines in the east central part of the state, Saundra Traywick – owner of the states only donkey dairy – was stunned to find plans to erect a miles wide, hundreds of miles long, electrical transmission corridor being planned for the northern part of the state.

Traywick couldn’t believe that kind of thing would happen in Oklahoma, so she began to do some further digging.

Thanks to the Obama/Biden administration, the federal government is printing large sums of cash to enrich states who create legislation to advance the green agenda – wind turbine (30 million) and solar installations (7 billion – and more money for ), carbon capture pipelines (251 million), hydrogen gas extraction (7 billion).

You see, all of these will be needed to create green the energy necessary to avert climate change, and all this green energy will be shipped along these giant electrical transmission corridors to wherever the government deems it necessary to go.

Governor Stitt is quite apparently putting Oklahoma on board the green agenda train and so are many private companies getting many millions of dollars in private investments and state tax incentives to take over private land via eminent domain and boot farmers and private property owners off their land.

Now, if this sounds like some kind of conspiracy and you’re unclear how that can happen, check out the American Stewards of Liberty pamphlet, “30×30 Land Grab“. This puts all the pieces together and explains how the taking of private lands for ‘wilderness protection’, as well as wind turbine, solar, transmission corridors and carbon capture pipelines to satisfy the ‘green agenda’ WEF mission to get to carbon net zero by 2050.

Here’s Oklahoma’s involvement:

Senate Bill 1021 written by former Senator Kim David (who is now conveniently a Corporation Commissioner) and Former member of the House, Mark McBride and signed into law by Governor Stitt on April 20, 2021, established the Hydrogen Production, Transportation, and Infrastructure Task Force (OK H2 Task Force) “to research and report on the viability of hydrogen production and use within the state and for export.”

Here are the meeting minutes from the first meeting, held July 19th, 2021.

Here is the final report of the Task Force which included this recommendation, “Develop incentives for established energy companies to build capabilities in carbon capture vertical (from sequestration to equipment manufacturing and services)”.

Two problems here, public money incentives and carbon capture.

But then the recommendations go on to say, “Determine Oklahoma’s carbon sequestration potential storage capacity, de-risk the timeline for Class VI permitting, and provide processes for all stakeholders involved in sequestration to provide a pathway for implementation.” WHAT?

It goes on and I won’t bore you with the details, but do you remember Secretary of Education Nellie Sanders and Goveror Stitt’s, “TASK FORCE TO UNLOCK STUDENT POTENTIAL“? Well, I have no doubt that it’s to help train state students in the hydrogen – and other green projects we want to create using printed money from the OBAMA/BIDEN/HARRIS administration – since that was yet another suggestion by the Hydrogen Task Force.

Now, in 2022, the Hydrogen Task Force parlays it’s work into creating the Halo Hydrogen Hub comprised of Oklahoma, Louisiana an Arkansas in order to compete for the 7 billion dollars in hydrogen funding mentioned above.

This is from a document called, “Support Opportunities”. This is where this whole thing gets dicey on NUMEROUS levels. This is a public/private partnership – like so many of the federally subsidized green projects are. Remember Obama’s Solyndra which was partially financed by our very own George Soros character, George Kaiser? Well, 570 MILLION taxpayer dollars went missing on that project. Where did it go? Has there been an accounting? Someone got it – the investors?

So there’s a problem, once investors get involved, there is no transparency because they’re not subject to open records requests – just the part subsidized with state or federal money.

And yet another problem – ALL INVESTORS HAVE TO SUBSCRIBE TO ESG! WHAT? Didn’t Oklahoma pass an Anti-ESG law? Yes, we did. Granted an Oklahoma judge blocked it, but the AG is attempting to appeal. So was that bill passed to FOOL THE PUBLIC? If not, how could Oklahoma be in an organization to get federal energy funds that would require investors to have an ESG plan?

Unfortunately (not really, the state shouldn’t go begging the OBAMA/BIDEN/HARRIS administration for ANYTHING!), the states didn’t win the money, so it’s now set out to provide subsidies for hydrogen producers. Could it be we didn’t ‘win’ because we’re ALREADY #4 in the nation for “providing net electricity generation from renewable sources”. What the heck are we doing all this for then, excepting the LOVE OF MONEY?

And so, as the Hydrogen Task Force waited with bated breath to hear back from their daddy, the Federal Government about how much money they were going to print and send Oklahoma to back the WEF’s 2050 Carbon Net Zero grift, Governor Stitt was quoted as saying, “In Oklahoma, we want more of everything,. By leaning into the hydrogen future, we can further diversify our energy portfolio and meet our future domestic energy demands.”

I read that like this, “To hell with all you crazy people who want to keep your property and not get poisoned by leaking carbon dioxide from a carbon capture pipeline, be scarred by the continuous thwacking noise of turbine blades against the Oklahoma wind, fight a solar panel fire it will take days to put out, or deal with the hum and electrical discharge from an overhead high tension electrical corridor, we just need more stuff we can get money from the federal government for!”

If you read it like this too, you’d better stay on top of what’s going on at the capitol this next year – NO MATTER WHO IS ELECTED TO THE PRESIDENCY – because they’re going to be trying to create a whole bunch of laws to make it easier for these ‘green energy’ grifters to do business in your backyard.

Now that you have the whole story backed up and cited so you’ll believe what I’m trying to warn you about, watch this video with me and Michael and Saundra as we walk through the whole green agenda grift while talking about the coming corridor – if we don’t do something to stop it.

Oklahoma Watch Requests – And Receives – Anonymous Tip Information To Write Story In Favor Of Edmond Teacher Regan Killacky

Once the concept of anonymous isn’t anymore, trust is gone and transparency is dead.

Look, I read the Oklahoma Watch. Sometimes they’re the only online media source from which I can get any kind of real information about our Republican elected officials. But there you go. I’ve personally found their stories to be biased to the left – which, as I said, works for me sometimes because their interest in taking out Republicans at least results in some kind of transparency for one side of the isle.

But right, or left, NO media source should request information that is meant to be anonymous and Oklahoma Watch did.

September 13th, reporter Jennifer Palmer posted a story to the online paper entitled, “State Seeks to Decertify Teacher Over 5-Year-Old Instagram Family Photo“. Palmer contends that Edmond Public School teacher Regan Killacky – who took a picture of himself and his son threatening a Donald Trump mask with plastic swords during an outing to a Halloween store in 2019 – should not be fired for the post.

Here is a legitimate sentence from Palmer’s piece: “But in Killackey’s case, Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters prioritized punishing a teacher over political speech he disagreed with in order to score political points”. Is anyone going to try and argue that this statement is somehow objective ‘journalism’? That it ISN’T completely biased? I hope not. You simply can’t make that argument. You’d look like a dope.

At any rate, Palmer’s desire to “get the story” and apparently prop up Killacky, resulted in her open records requesting (ORR) from the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) information on who filed the (supposedly) anonymous tip about Killacky’s Instagram post to the state’s AWARITY reporting system.

Now, granted, there’s PLENTY of blame to go around here. Yes, Palmer requested information that was supposed to be anonymous, but the OSDE GAVE IT TO HER. What the absolute HECK? What would be the purpose of something so reckless?

Watch the short video below to get the full story, but suffice it to say, either tips are anonymous or they’re not. If they’re not anonymous and the public is told they’re anonymous, even the most ardent Walters supporters will lose faith in the system after getting doxed the first time by Oklahoma’s poor excuse for objective journalists.

Oklahoma Watch (Jennifer Palmer) AND OSDE – both of you had better do better ASAP.

Something’s Afoot In Chickasha…

Not everything is economic development and not all economic development is good.

In 2022, the town of Chickasha Oklahoma decided that – in the name of ‘economic development’ – they would erect a 50 foot leg lamp statue mimicking the one found in Warner Brother’s, A Christmas Story.

You know the one. Ralphie’s dad gets the lamp as a prize of some kind and installs the ‘soft glow of electric sex’ in the front window, much to the chagrin of the neighbors and his mom. Quickly, the leg lamp meets an untimely death by reasons unknown (although his mother was watering plants in the room when it happened…) and is carted to the trash bin.

Chickasha has had the Festival of Lights for many years – an amazing display of lights put together by the town for the benefit of the many people who flock to see them as part of their Christmas celebration traditions. Yet, one day, townspeople were told that – in the interest of economic development – the angels traditionally sitting atop the downtown light polls during Christmastide would be removed and lamp shades used instead.

Many residents were upset and wanted to know more about these plans, which included the installation of the giant leg lamp.

Since that time, concerned residents have been trying to crack the mystery of the lamp – especially how it was planned and erected without the blessing of Warner Brothers Studios – the owner of the rights to the movie.

Today, what started as questions regarding why the town would want a statue of the ‘leg lamp’ from the movie A Christmas Story, has become a full on pursuit of the truth over its funding, resulting in reams of Open Records Requests and angry interactions among normally-friendly townspeople, the Economic Development Authority, and other town leaders.

Watch the full live video (YouTube and Rumble) with town resident Laurie Wood-Allen for more information and how to get answers from YOUR town when you are concerned that something might be amiss. Also, don’t forget the show we did with regular Julianne Romanello where we talked about the GRIFT Of Economic Development. It can really help to put this story in context.

But first, watch the short clip below where Laurie tells why she decided to start pursuing the issue of the lamp.

An Open Letter To Governor Stitt And The Oklahoma Legislature From A 3rd Generation Oklahoma Farm Owner

The following letter was written by Dorn Weaver II from Lincoln County, Oklahoma.

Dear Governor Stitt and Esteemed Oklahoma State Legislators,

In light of the current federal administration’s ambitious goal of achieving 100% renewable energy production by 2035 to combat climate change, it is imperative to address the risks and challenges posed by the rapid expansion of wind and solar energy sources within our state. While Oklahoma meets and surpasses the current federal mandate of 30% renewable energy production, boasting renewable production at 47%, we must consider that Oklahoma produces 61% more energy than it consumes.  This raises a critical question: why are we allocating significant taxpayer funds to allow external investors to acquire vast tracts of Oklahoma land for a product that we are already overproducing?

A pressing concern lies in our dependence on global supply chains, particularly from countries like China, for components required to manufacture wind turbines and solar panels. This reliance exposes our energy sector to significant vulnerabilities, making it susceptible to disruptions stemming from geopolitical tensions and trade disputes. To ensure the security and reliability of our energy grid, we must advocate for diversified sourcing strategies that reduce our dependence on specific suppliers or regions.

Moreover, the inherent intermittency of wind and solar energy generation poses substantial challenges to grid stability, as these sources fluctuate based on weather conditions and time of day. It is essential that we prioritize the implementation of energy storage solutions and demand-response measures to effectively manage these fluctuations and uphold grid reliability.

To safeguard our energy security, we must embrace a diversified energy mix that includes not only renewables but also natural gas, hydro, clean coal, and potentially nuclear energy.

I urge you to draft legislation to implement a statewide moratorium on any new renewable energy projects. Such a strategic pause would provide us with the opportunity to conduct a comprehensive review of our existing energy portfolio, identify vulnerabilities, and develop a robust energy strategy that prioritizes security, resilience, and sustainability.

In conclusion, let us approach this critical issue with the wisdom and foresight Oklahomans expect from our esteemed legislative body. By instituting a statewide moratorium on renewable energy projects and reevaluating Oklahoma’s energy strategy, we can pave the way for a more secure, reliable, and environmentally responsible energy landscape that protects the best interests of our citizens and future generations.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Respectfully,

Dorn J. Weaver II

Norman school to teach elementary students to identity “misinformation”

Written by guest-poster, Shane Smith

An email sent out by McKinley Elementary in Norman last week, informed parents that the school has been selected to participate in an “innovative research study examining how school librarians can help students learn to detect and avoid misinformation by developing their information literacy skills”.

While participation in the study itself is voluntary, all K-5 students will be taught the misinformation program curriculum from August to April.

The program itself, entitled “Awareness and Critical Thinking (ACT) Program: How School
Librarians Can Teach Children to Detect and Avoid Misinformation”, was developed by Tara Zimmerman, assistant professor at the School of Library and Information Studies at Texas Women’s University. Her sole specialty for the past few years has centered around “misinformation”, and she’s received a $400,000 grant from the Laura Bush 21st Century
Librarian Program to fund her research.

A few of the papers she’s published on misinformation provide the trajectory of her target.

In 2020, she published a paper entitled, “COVID-19: Mask Misinformation and Social Noise”. The paper begins with this statement:

“Disinformation and misinformation are pervasive in unregulated social-media environments, which are used habitually for obtaining news.”

I think we know where this is going.

Further into the article she says:

“Facebook on July 20th, 2020 removed a group called themselves Unmasking America that had more than 9,000 members for spreading COVID19 misinformation (Lynos 2020). The group claimed that masks obstruct the flow of oxygen and have a negative psychological impact on wearers. Facebook responded to an inquiry from the Verge and stated that “We have clear policies against promoting harmful misinformation about COVID 19 and have removed this group while we review the others,” according to the Verge article. This is one of many groups on social media spreading lies and conspiracy theories about COVID19 and against wearing masks for various reasons. In the US, wearing masks has become a partisan issue and represents more of a political statement than a safety and health care guidance issue. Most social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and others are coming under pressure to encounter such negative messaging and take steps to minimize the spread of COVID19 misinformation.”

Yet another paper, published in 2022, “Misinformation and COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy”, reads just as you’d expect:

“During the COVID-19 pandemic, anti-vaccine beliefs have been at an all-time high, and vaccine hesitancy has become a major threat to public health [1]. The World Health Organization has labeled the increased virulence of misinformation during the COVID-19 pandemic an “infodemic” [2]. Throughout 2020, scientists, healthcare professionals, and politicians speculated about vaccine timelines, distribution, and effectiveness; and media platforms presented widely varying opinions as well as misinformation that negatively influenced people’s attitudes about COVID-19 vaccines [3]. By the end of 2020, the self-reported likelihood of getting vaccinated against COVID-19 had declined sharply from 74 % in April to 56 % in December [4]. While the availability of COVID-19 vaccines improved between the fall of 2020 and late spring 2021, indications of public distrust in vaccines continued. This public distrust contributed to waves of COVID-19 cases and deaths in the US, increasingly among those who were not vaccinated.”

There’s something archaic about Zimmerman’s papers, her attitude prevalent at the height of COVID hysteria, and later, her vaccine mandate hysteria that rings hollow today.

Masks didn’t prevent the spread of COVID. Neither did the vaccine. It’s almost common knowledge now, but both facts were branded as misinformation during the dark days of the COVID pandemic.

In fact, her continued study of “misinformation” feels like a discarded relic of the past. It might have held weight in 2020, or 2021, when any opinion not perfectly aligned with the official narrative surrounding COVID-19 was branded as misinformation, and censored. Even scientific research that failed to dovetail with the pronouncements of the public health establishment was blacklisted. We all remember it, and we’d rather not return to those dark days of censorship.

Zimmerman might, though. What else explains her passion for routing out or dismissing
altogether non-approved opinions?

“Misinformation” is not a neutral term.

It’s shown itself to be nothing more than a bludgeon used to silence right-wing criticisms of left-wing orthodoxy. During the authoritarian days of the pandemic, it was a powerful weapon used to silence critics by the thousands with one fell swoop. We remember the social media behemoths enacting a scorched earth policy of censorship at the behest of the Biden White House. But now, in the age of Elon-owned X, the term “misinformation” has lost its power. Like a T-Rex transformed into a chicken.

Professor Zimmerman clearly isn’t a neutral actor, and the ACT Program isn’t an objective
study. I fear that the goal of her program is less to teach children to think critically, and more to teach them to hold up a crucifix when confronted with unapproved opinions. “Get them while they’re young” is the new strategy among activists embedded within the public school system.

The ACT Program appears to be yet another attempt to cloak the wolf of left-wing orthodoxy in a sheep’s coat of scientific objectivity.

Watch for it in your child’s school RIGHT NOW. This is a national movement occurring BEFORE our elections. Check out: Media literacy is more than spotting fake news. How one librarian gives teens the tools to decide what to trust

Dissecting The Implications of School Choice Expert Corey DeAngelis Recent Outing As A Former Gay Adult Film Star

Oh. My. Word. Here’s where we are today; flipping through pages of social media postings about a school choice mouthpiece who has recently been accused of having a former life as a gay, adult film star.

So let’s break this latest phenomenon down, shall we?

NUMBER ONE: If you’re a professing Christian, you shouldn’t be using this story to bolster any of your own personal political points.

Every one of us is human and 90% of us have done something crazy/awful/horrifying/creepy when we were young people. We are certainly right to judge other professing Christians for their behaviors – and even call them out on them – but I don’t recall DeAngelis being one of those. In fact I have no memory of any of his talking points revolving around Jesus Christ or Biblical living.

I’ve never been a DeAngelis fan because I’m not for giving taxpayer money to other taxpayers so they can put their children in private schools at my expense, but in all honesty, I can’t imagine being Corey DeAngelis right now. He apparently married last year. He’s been wined and dined and admired as an expert by many thousands of people over many years. What a screeching halt to a rather charmed life. The kind, in fact, that should probably make each of us internalize the notion, “there but by the Grace of God go I“.

NUMBER TWO: People can change. Granted, some people never do, so there’s that, but the world is full of stories in which people overcame a life predicated on bad circumstances and/or choices to become better people – changed people. It matters not the circumstances, if they’ve rebuked their former lives and done a 180, it’s the Christian perspective to ‘forgive and forget’.

When I was in high school, I spent most of my time hanging with the stoners. I drove stoned. I went to work stoned. I was stoned a lot.

At 20, I was a married mother of one and my whole high school hanging with the stoners lifestyle went out the window as I took up the mantle of respectable, homemaker and mother. I then went on to become a respectable divorced parent putting myself through college while simultaneously raising a small person (who, incidentally, became a respectable adult).

The stuff I learned from my high school years kept me from doing further stupid stuff as an adult. The world didn’t end because I did stupid stuff, it could have actually made it a bit better because I learned some hard lessons about the consequences of doing stupid stuff that I have never forgotten.

Look, I get that acting in gay porn movies when you’re spokesman for a group touting parental ’empowerment’ and bettering kids, isn’t a small deal, but bad is bad is bad. Let’s avoid getting into an argument – for now – over what’s ‘badder’ in a ‘previous life’ – doing drugs or performing gay porn.

NUMBER THREE: We should NEVER take people who put themselves in the role of ‘expert’ on anything, at face value.

It happens over and over and over again. It’s a story as old as the hills.

A Music Man comes into town and says he’s created the world’s biggest band – with 76 trombones no less – and can do that for them! The townspeople, amazed at his eloquence, believe his pitch, throw their lot – and their money – in behind him only to find out that their marching band expert is nothing more than a conman trying to make money off the backs of naive Midwesterners.

Today, people are all too willing to believe the words of people who are deemed experts by others – or deem themselves as experts. We don’t even have to mention Anthony Fauci or anyone at the UN, or WEF here. After all, everyone knows these people are experts who deserve our complete faith, because, well, ‘science’ and all that.

Corey DeAngelis (and every other ‘school choice’ ‘expert’) is no different in any singular way.

NUMBER FOUR: There are about 99,999,999 things more important in this world than Corey DeAngelis right now and one of them is to note who IS using this information for their gain.

Trump endorsed anti-LGBTQ+ author put on leave from school choice group after his ‘gay porn past’ is discovered. Gosh, that’s not obvious – and I’m not going to add the article written by Oklahoma’s own very left blogosphere regular who loves to gleefully point out anything that jabs anyone on the right hard in the ribs.

When the left comes out of the woodwork with all kinds of garbage about anyone on the right, you know it’s to shiv them politically and skewer public opinion and trust in whatever topic it is they’ve shiv’ed them over.

IN THE END: So, all of those things, but of all of those things – this; STOP BELIEVING IN EXPERTS. People in power, STOP COURTING THEM; stop wining and dining them and giving them your Citizenship Awards, or bringing them into your office at the capitol and predicating [flawed] education policy on them.

Believe it or not, there are REGULAR people out here in the real world of non-experts who have become everyday experts just by our own experiences and we might have a thing or two to say, but we can’t because…well…experts.

July 11th, I went to the Capitol for an Ethics Commission ‘Working Group Meeting’ seeking input regarding Governor Stitt’s Ethics and Elections Executive Order.

I sat there quietly as a Democrat legislator and the head of the task force, Chairman, AJ Ferate, explained the work his group had done to satisfy the Governor’s EO. At one point during his presentation, Mr. Ferate mentioned how “his friends in Washington DC” didn’t like one of the proposals the group had made, and, after all, everyone should know that every DC swamp rat is an expert in ethics.

After all the experts in the room had spoken, the head of the Ethics Commission, Lee Anne Bruce Boone asked if there were any comments from attendees. I asked if I could go to the mic and was allowed to say a few things about what I had uncovered in my research on Dark Money in Oklahoma.

I was fascinated – but not surprised – by how many of the experts in the room seemed disinterested in what I had to say, yet they had asked Ferate and others, several questions during the session. But then again, who am I? I’m no expert. And why? Probably because the ‘real’ experts don’t want me to be.

So, instead of using the DeAngelis scandal for political gain, let’s use it to inform ourselves about what it means to be an ‘expert’ in today’s political space. Then, let’s use that knowledge to remind our elected officials that we citizens can be experts just as knowledgeable as those on FOX, or in DC – and we don’t have quite so far to fall off our pedestals.

Carbon Capture Can Kill You – All To Satisfy The World Economic Forum’s Agenda And Help The Rich Get Richer

Wow, what a way to come back from vacation! Friday, September 20th, Michael and I hosted a record THREE guests on the podcast at once – former Iowa Congressman Steve King and Robert Nazario of Freesoil Foundation and Steve Kenkel, an Iowa county official with a job akin to our County Commissioners – all to talk about carbon capture pipelines being created in mid-America and how these can kill us and our property rights.

What is a carbon capture pipeline you ask?

Here’s former Iowa Congressman, Steve King, to explain a bit about it:

According to the World Economic Forum, “To limit global warming to 1.5C, in line with the Paris Agreement, we need to cut current greenhouse-gas-emission levels in half by 2030 and reduce them to “net zero” by 2050.”

So…a carbon capture pipeline is a pipeline that stores CO2 removed from the earth’s atmosphere by carbon capture technology (see below), which can then be sequestered in the ground and used as currency when the WEF wins it’s war on the fiat exchange mechanism we’re all used to now (dollars) and our unGodly rich overlords want to buy a little CO2-producing yacht – or something nice for themselves.

What are “greenhouse gas” emissions?

Basically anything with CO2.

What is CO2? A compound of the elements Carbon and Oxygen which is produced by every living, breathing animal or human on the planet as a bi-product of cellular respiration (the process of breathing in Oxygen, which then powers all our cells by turning it into CO2, which we then breathe out), but also the burning of fossil fuels and decomposition of formerly-living (respiring) things to name a few others. Check out the schematic of the Oxygen Cycle which everyone should have learned in sciences courses throughout our school years. Seriously, it’s this easy to understand –

So stop and think on this a second…if plants use CO2 to create the O2 we breathe, what happens when we remove a huge chunk of CO2 from the air? If you wondered if it could be like putting a plastic bag over your head, you’d be right.

In fact, we know this to be true in practice – and here’s how.

The climate goonies have already started manufacturing these carbon sequestration pipelines and slipping them below the earth’s crust in numerous places – 5300 miles worth of them to be exact.

One of these is Satartia, Mississippi, where a CO2 pipeline rupture injured 45 and forced the evacuation of 200 townspeople.

See, CO2 is heavier than O2 – which should make you wonder how enough of it gets into the upper atmosphere to cause the heating effect we’re all supposed to be scared to death of. In great quantities – like that leaked from a CO2 sequestering pipeline – it flows out of its source and onto the ground – where people are. The following is an excerpt from an NPR article, “The U.S. is expanding CO2 pipelines. One poisoned town wants you to know its story“, which you should read.

Cars stopped working, hobbling emergency response. People lay on the ground, shaking and unable to breathe. First responders didn’t know what was going on. “It looked like you were going through the zombie apocalypse,” says Jack Willingham, emergency director for Yazoo County.

Now, three years after the CO2 poisoning from the pipeline break, some in Satartia see the incident as a warning at a critical moment for U.S. climate policy. The country is looking at a dramatic expansion of its carbon dioxide pipeline network, thanks in part to billions of dollars of incentives in last year’s climate legislation. Last week, the Biden administration announced $251 million for a dozen climate projects that focus on CO2 transport and storage.

Satartia residents are lucky. In Cameroon, Africa in 1986, a large CO2 bubble was released by Lake Kuk. It flowed out of the lake, down the mountain and killed absolutely everything that breathed oxygen for many miles, including 1,746 people and around 8,300 livestock.

Obviously, this ‘scheme’ is riddled with problems. Here are a few others.

Private Ownership Means ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY To Anyone But Investors

Summit Carbon Solutions – the organization mentioned by Congressman King in the above video, as the pipeline pushing organization – is a subsidiary of Summit Agricultural Group – a PRIVATE CAPITAL firm that includes as one of its offerings, Summit Carbon Solutions – all led by one guy, the Chairman and CEO, Bruce Rastetter, who Congressman King calls, “The Republican George Soros Of The Midwest”.

Unfortunately, one of Oklahoma’s own – Continental Resources – is a Summit Carbon Solutions investor, as are TPG RISE, (“a leading global alternative asset management firm, dedicated to the climate investing strategy of its global impact investing platform TPG Rise”, led by Bono and Richard Branson among others) and Tiger Infrastructure Partners (with offices in NY and London) who is excited about ESG and focuses their investments on transportation, digital infrastructure and “energy transition” to include ‘decarbonization’.

So what? Who cares? People are free to invest in what they want, right?

Private Property Rights VS Privately Funded Corporations Seeking Eminent Domain Rights

The full video (which you can find on Rumble or YouTube) shows the frustration the three men have had fighting THEIR OWN ELECTED OFFICIALS to make sure their personal property rights guaranteed by the Constitution are secured.

Private organizations engaged in making money on the back of a community, do anything they can to win the community over. After all, who wouldn’t trust Nick? He just donated a crap-ton of money to the local FFA. Why should I question his motives in getting me to sign a contract for an easement on my property line to accommodate a pipeline I wouldn’t have to see? He’s obviously invested in the community. Sure I’d trust him – even if I had to sign a piece of paper saying I couldn’t divulge the specifications of our contract to anyone.

Here’s a perfect example of this technique. This is Summit Carbon Solutions “aren’t we great” page. They’re great, right? Who couldn’t see that?

Then, there’s the problem we’ve seen here in Central Oklahoma with wind turbine developers. The developers – flush with taxpayer funds from the Biden Administration to power the ‘green agenda’ – donate to legislator’s campaigns, essentially assuring that any legislation they need for their projects could go their way – including the removal of citizens from their land.

No, not all legislators are influenced in this way, however, Senator Jessica Garvin and Representative Kevin Wallace (among others) were booted out of office this summer, in part due to complaints that they worked harder for their donors than they did for their constituents.

We The People can’t regulate private investor firms powering private companies who want access to our land if we don’t want them to have it. All we can do is beg our elected officials to follow the Constitution and hope they’ll side with their constituents and not the ever-knee-bending cries of “ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT” and “GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE” or the big bags of money these investor and taxpayer-powered people have that we middle-Americans don’t.

This is a bad position to be in as an American that can ONLY be rectified by being a LOUD, ACTIVE voice at County Commissioner meetings, Corporation Commission meetings and in the state Capitol with our own – and other – legislators and getting very involved in local elections.

Listen to Robert Nazario talk about the IMPORTANCE OF PROPERTY RIGHTS below. Take the words to heart and get ready to get in the game, because even if you don’t have property, dwindling farmland will effect your way of life and the way of life of your children and/or grandchildren as we’re all funneled into corporate solutions that will allow our Managers to manage us.

None of this ‘green’ nonsense is sustainable, or designed to truly help the planet – it’s designed to help people with money, make and keep their money.

Out Of State Investors Are Causing Your Insurance To Soar!

Wednesday, September 18th, Michael and I had Kayla Blount, with 317 Insurance Advisors, return to talk to us about why Oklahomans have such EXPENSIVE CAR INSURANCE.

I have to say, I’m rarely shocked by anything the guests on our show say, but this one got me.

Did you know that there are people – often outside of the US – who give money to law firms to help car accident clients get bodily injury claims? Yup. You know me – I’ve got to research it myself before I am really going to report on it – and yup, it’s 100% accurate. It’s called, “Third Party Litigation”.

Click here to read a really great description by the Insurance Information Institute of what 3rd Party Litigation is, what it can do to the insurance industry and your bottom line as a consumer needing car insurance. And here is another short informational piece that describes the damage this practice is doing to economic inflation.

Watch Kayla describe this fun little practice and how it negatively effected one of her clients:

Here in Oklahoma, at least two organizations have been found to be engaging in this practice of financing law firms to collect vast over-market settlements for their clients with car insurance companies, usually over often hard-to-detect soft tissue injuries.

Westfleet Advisors is an American-based organization that uses funds from PRIVATE investors (outside the stock exchange) to prop up law firms attempting to gain large settlements for their clients which are then split up between the client, the law firm and the investors, leaving car insurance companies with HUGE payouts or litigation bills, the cost of which then roll on down to the consumer.

If you might be unconvinced that 3rd Party Litigation isn’t making a difference in your pocketbook, realize that an author from Westfleet Advisors themselves wants you to know that “$2.7 Billion of Capital Committed in U.S. Commercial Litigation Finance Industry in 2023“.

But it’s not only PRIVATE investment firms that take part in this ‘for the love of money’ scheme. I found several that trade publicly on the American Stock Exchange that do the very same thing for their investors – fund law firms to get big payouts for clients at the expense of automobile insurance companies and THEIR clients.

For example, Burford Capitol has offices in the US and all over the world. They’re happy to say that they’re publicly funding the misery of American consumers on their website.

So what are we to do here?

Watch the full video when you have time (find it on YouTube and Rumble). Kayla has a lot more great information outside of just the clips I pulled out. A full viewing of the interview will help you put everything in context.

Contact your legislator and tell them that OKLAHOMA MUST HAVE TORTE REFORM IN THE AREA OF VEHICULAR ACCIDENT JUDGMENTS NEXT SESSION before we all go broke just trying to lawfully drive our vehicles on Oklahoma roadways. You might propose it like this; if the legislature wants to make laws about how we can operate our vehicles on our roadways, they better help us afford to follow their laws (of course it would be better if they quit writing so many laws, but let’s start there).

Next, watch the short video below that talks about what you can do PERSONALLY to stop yourself from being victimized by a car accident. Take notes, save the video, whatever you need to do to follow Kayla’s advice and help keep yourself – and by extension your pocketbook – safe.

Lastly, TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS BY SHARING THE VIDEOS/BLOG, ETC. We’ll never win the hearts and minds of legislators if we don’t come at this problem with one really loud voice and that will take all of us we can muster up!
