Nov. 10 News Letter

November 10th News Letter

Hey gang! It’s been two weeks since the last live stream but it feels like just a few days to me. We will be live streaming tonight at 7:30 Central. We’ll be live on all 4 platforms tonight. Rumble, You Tube, Odysee,  Facebook (no link yet) and Twitter (no stream link yet – first time, experimenting). I would like to encourage folks to start thinking of Rumble and Twitter (X) as our primary channels. We will continue streaming on all 5 platforms as long as we are able. Also, some of our folks are looking into podcasting options for our streams so we’ll have more platforms to add that will help increase the reach of our message. I also encourage everyone to start sharing our website, and socials with others, spread the word. The legislative session starts in less than 2 months.

If you want to join us and let your voice be heard, feel free to join us on Guilded. We usually get on Guilded about 7:00PM, a full 30 minutes before the show starts and we’re usually still on Guilded for quite a while after the show ends. Joining Guilded is free, just setup and account and follow our link to join our server. We ask folks to keep their language clean for the show (we’re family friendly). We also ask folks to remember “social etiquette.” Please do not interrupt or talk over others. It is not mandatory to speak or use a camera. Many folks join us for the live that do not turn on their microphone or camera during the live stream. The pre-show and after show can be a lot of fun as we let our hair down and discuss many items we do not include in the live streams. If you choose to join for the first time, please check in early, so we can help with any technical issues you may have with audio and/or video. We will not provide technical support during the live stream.

I have been involved in a lot of events in the past week. Here’s the run down…

On Sunday (November 5) we had a legislative meet and greet. It was unlike any meet and greet we have ever had and no one thought to record it or bring recording equipment. This is a shame because it was a barn burner filled with legislative truth bombs. John Williams (who also attended and spoke at the event) is starting to tell bits the story. John will be interviewing Justin Sparks in the near future so the full details can come from an authoritative source. We’ll talk a little bit about this tonight.

I am trying to secure a location for a meet and greet on December 9th here in Clever, Missouri for Senator Mike Moon and Representative Bob Titus. Tentative time would be 1:00PM to 3:00PM on December the 9th if we can lock it down. Stay tuned for details.

Well, it seems for now House Speaker Representative Dean Plocher has not be reprimanded in any way by the House Ethics Committee. To make matters even more cloudy, Dean has hired convicted sex offender and scandal ridden former House Speaker Rod Jetton to be his new Chief of Staff. We’ll definitely cover this tonight on the live stream.

On Thursday, I participated in a Twitter Space that actually (and accidentally) lead to a national movement (tweet below) based on 10th amendment virtues. The conversation continued on a Friday Twitter Space and is gaining steam. The idea is simple in nature and profound if executed properly. Multiple States’ Attorney Generals should join forces to overturn convictions of J6ers based on wrongful prosecution. States should also nullify the NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) as it has been proven now to be a weapon to use against conservative peaceful protesters and has NOT been used against violent protesters and rioters such as Antifa and BLM. We can be a nation with communist planks within our laws OR not. The people MUST decide this and begin to work with their states if they oppose communist laws and practices. Not opposing these unconstitutional laws and practices signifies compliance. States MUST act. We (the Missouri Freedom Initiative) cannot shepherd this movement in a way that will do it justice. Others have offered to step in and keep working this. I will write a press release on this soon which will be displayed on our web site.

The gold and silver bill is coming along just fine and the posted final draft and almost exactly the same as the finished bill. Our first knock and shock operation will be on January 9th, 2024 (silver and gold day). Please make plans to attend. Our knock and shock events are family friendly. Although many of us stay 10+ hours in the capitol, many just come for a few hours because that’s all the time they can give. Every minute folks dedicate to a knock and shock operation is greatly appreciated.

Last night, my wife and I attended a presentation that while long (2.5 hours) was absolutely mind blowing. The presentation was held by David Cort and in that 2.5 hours, David proves who actually controls your local school district, how some school boards break the law and how YOUR district can follow the laws and actually change the entire district management model to eliminate superintendents and other administrative positions while being complaint with Missouri law and returning control of the school system with a school board that is not controlled by state organizations. I will do my best to bring all this information to the forefront soon. EVERYONE needs to know this information, no matter if you have kids in school or not. This was powerful folks. Stay tuned for more info on this in the coming weeks including strategies to implement changes to bring back local control and complete  elimination of woke ideology from the curriculum if the community desires it.

John Williams (Missouri Liberty Report) interviewed Paul Berry III candidate for Lt. Governor of Missouri on his Friday stream. After the interview John talked a bit about the meet and greet from last Sunday. John’s stream can be found here on You Tube or here on Rumble.

Rogue Politics is alive and well. Although they have not released new content in a few weeks, they are working on new content for their next podcast. A landing page has been setup for Rogue Politics and you can view it here.

Our webmaster has setup a direct link to Sam Britton’s radio stream on our web site. It’s on the front page. Tom is constantly changing and updating the web site with information as well as functionality. Sam’s show “Off the Cuff” is every Sunday at 6:00PM to 9:00PM Central Time on Missouri Liberty Radio.

I want to give a special shout out to Gretchen Garrity who blogs under “Right2WinOzarks.” Gretchen has been writing this blog for quite some time and is definitely in the liberty fight. She concentrates on the Missouri school system and exposing very serious problems with school boards and superintendents. We will be covering her blogs in our website soon.

That’s all for now gang. I hope to see you tonight!

May God bless us all with good health and with wisdom and courage.

Yours for liberty,

Nov. 4th News Letter

Hey gang, I wanted to let you all know that we will not be live streaming tonight. My work schedule this past week has been crushing and I have to work today as well. However, I wanted to remind everyone of events coming up.

First of all, Retha has produced a video about Rockwood R-IV school district (Eureka Missouri). You can find the video here.

It is likely the last video we will release about individual school districts before the November 7 ballot (Tuesday). Retha has done a tremendous job diving into all the numbers of these school districts showing what their actual debt is. It still amazes me that school boards and superintendents will not produce this information for residents in their districts before a bond vote. I have found in my years of being politically active that many people who are in elected office desperately want to talk about transparency while at the same time be opaque about most activities they are involved with. It has never been our job or the intention of the Initiative to “tell” people how to vote on a ballot, we are doing our best to provide information about what they are voting on and what the financial impacts will be. I have not had any time this week to create a video describing the words “no tax increase bond issue” that most schools nationwide will use of their ballots but that phrase has been outlawed in the state of Texas. It has been outlawed in Texas because it is in fact a lie. If you see that on a ballot, understand that it an intentional attempt by the school boards across the nation to deceive the people into voting for a tax increase.

Tomorrow, I will be in Eureka Missouri for a legislative meet and greet. I will be joining John Williams (Missouri Liberty Report) & Tom Martz (Locke and Smith Foundation) for a meet and greet with Representative Holly Jones (House District 88) and Representative Justin Sparks (House District 110). This event is open to the public and all are encouraged to attend. The purposes of these meet and greets are many fold… (Obviously, to meet with your Representative) however, discussions with your representatives in the district they represent is actually the first step for many folks to actually get involved in the Missouri government. At these events, you will find out what YOUR representative’s legislative priorities are and in turn you can communicate with them what YOUR priorities are. It is the single BEST way to influence your representation and get a conversation going with the folks that actually represent you in the Missouri government if you have not met them before. Grassroots organizations (Locke and Smith Foundation, Missouri Liberty Report and Missouri Freedom Initiative) will also be there and will speak as well talking about their priorities which are shared by folks all over the state. It is also a great time to voice your concerns about issues Missouri faces and your communities face. Government works best when everyone has a voice and the channels of communication are open. It is our hope that after the meet and greet is over, you continue communicating with these representatives via email, phone calls and visits to Jefferson City.

John Williams had Sam and Trish Britton on the Missouri Liberty Report on Friday (11-3-23). Discussion included a deep dive into smart electricity meters that most of us have on our homes.

Sam Britton will be live again on Sunday night (11-5-23) from 6:00 to 9:00 PM. If you are not in the Owensville, Missouri area, you can catch Missouri Liberty Radio streamed live from Sam’s website. “Off the Cuff” is Sam’s weekly show on the station and it’s a live call-in show.

There are 2 important dates this coming up week.

  1. November 7th. It’s a special election Tuesday. Many school districts in Missouri and across the nation will be voting on maxing out the bond capacities in their districts in a nationwide coordinated effort, keeping their districts in debt for another 20 years. Most folks don’t even know this November 7th vote is even going on.
  2. November 8th (Wednesday) the Missouri Ethics Committee will be meeting again (presumably to continue what was started last week). If you haven’t called and emailed all the representatives on the ethics committee AND your representative yet, please do so as soon as you can. Even if you call at night and leave a voice mail, please do call. For your convenience, the names and numbers are listed below. Please refer to last week’s email for links to stories about House Speaker Dean Plocher and what he has been accused of if you are not informed on this issue. Byron Keelin with Freedom Principal Missouri, Jodi Grace with Missouri Freedom Foundation and Patrick Holland with Missouri Freedom Initiative have openly called for Dean Plocher to be removed from office. Let’s make sure the Missouri legislature know that corruption and corporatism will no longer be tolerated in Missouri government AND that YOU are watching them.

For those of you who have contacted me this week, I apologize for not getting back to you. Between Monday and Friday, I have worked just under 80 hours and have not had the time to get back to anyone this week.

That’s all for now gang, I hope to see some of you in Eureka tomorrow. Remember to turn your clocks back 1 hour before you go to bed tonight.

May God bless us all with good health and with wisdom and courage.
