Austin: Successful Rally to Oppose AG Holder’s Attack on Election Reforms. PLUS Citizen Action Items!

Posted December 19th, 2011 by Konni

On Tuesday, December 13 a rally was held near the LBJ Library at the University of Texas, Austin to highlight the attack on election reforms launched inside by U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder. Holder went to Texas to denounce the Lone Star State’s voter ID laws and claimed that simple voter ID laws were somehow discriminatory. Holder ominously claimed that he would use the power of his office to “enforce civil rights protections” during the upcoming 2012 elections.

Outside the LBJ Library nearly 200 citizens gathered to hear a multi-racial panel of six speakers denounce Holder’s partisan attempts to push the administration’s agenda to turn a blind eye to continuing voter fraud that consistently favors candidates from the Democrat Party.

The rally was sponsored by the Houston-based True The Vote, a grass roots voter integrity project staffed by volunteers. True The Vote is a nation-wide organization that has affiliates across the country, every day citizens interested in the integrity of the elections in their home district.

True The Vote President Catherine Engelbrecht said she was thrilled by the turnout that was arranged on only a few day’s notice:

True The Vote Rally In Austin on December 13th

To Set The Record Straight About Eric Holder, The DOJ, and the UN

HOUSTON, TX – At 4PM, on Tuesday, December 13, at the LBJ Library in

Austin, Texas, TRUE THE VOTE will rally with fellow patriots to set the

record straight about U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, his Department

of Justice, and the interference of the United Nations in elections in the

United States. The planned rally is to focus on Holder’s intention to use

the DOJ to push a progressive and racial agenda on our elections and on

efforts by other progressive organizations to include foreign forces in our

electoral process.

Attorney General Eric Holder will be at the LBJ Library in Austin, Texas on

December 13 to make speak on the importance of ensuring equal voting

rights. Yet, Holder is loathe to preclear voter integrity projects as well as

voter identification requirements in Texas, South Carolina and other

states.

Further, the UK Guardian reported on December 5 that the National

Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) has

petitioned the United Nations to involve itself in elections in the United

States with the false claim that election reform advocates are attempting

to suppress the voting rights of minorities.

Eric Holder and the NAACP stand against Texas plans for redistricting and

its Voter Photo ID laws. Free and fair elections are at risk.

See Rally Announcement Here

TRUE THE VOTE is a national election integrity project based in Houston,

TX, led by Catherine Engelbrecht. Its purpose is to equip citizens for

involvement at every stage of our electoral process and to actively

protect the rights of legitimate voters regardless of party affiliation.

Nov 14: Gary Aldrich, former FBI Agent inside the Clinton White House

Posted November 2nd, 2011 by Julie

NE Tarrant Tea Party meeting

Guest Speaker: Gary Aldrich, former FBI Agent

Nov 14, 2011, 6:30-8:00pm

$5 pizza dinner served at 6pm (see note below re: free dinner!)

1060 E Highland, Southlake 76092

(bldg 1020 of Highland Meadow Montessori Academy)

Join us to hear from Gary Aldrich, American Patriot, Entrepreneur and Author of “Unlimited Access – An FBI Agent Inside the Clinton White House“.

On Independence Day 1996, former FBI Agent Gary Aldrich broke the code of silence surrounding the Clinton Administration. He exposed the questionable behavior and serious breaches of national security and attacks an basic American values that permeated the White House during this time.

His subsequent book “Unlimited Access” detailing this, soon entered the New York Times’ bestseller list at #1, and has since been credited as one of the forerunners of the provocative trend in popular conservative books on national affairs. But this success did little to blunt the harsh sting of scorn and criticism that was to be heaped upon Mr. Aldrich. His livelihood, his family’s security, his hard-earned good reputation, and his very life were put on the line on a daily basis in the face of a vociferous maelstrom from the Hard Left who wished to keep the truth about the Clintons, and their real agenda, under wraps.

Mr. Aldrich was able to weather the storm all the stronger though, and went on to release both a political novel, Speak No Evil, and another book of essays, Thunder on the Left, which outlined the Hard Left’s systematically co-option of a political party.

Given Mr. Aldrich’s past experience, he has a particular passion to intercede in the plight of ethical dissenters currently under attack by the media or by a corrupt federal agency or administration.

He continues to appear as an expert witness guest on many talk shows around the nation discussing the Clinton administration, corruption, the FBI, other federal agencies, issues related to law enforcement, and Second Amendment rights.

A 30-yr veteran of the FBI, Mr. Aldrich specialized in white collar crime, including fraud and political corruption. For five years prior to retiring, Mr. Aldrich served under former President Bush and Clinton in a national security role. In addition, he was assigned to the US Senate and House, working closely with elected officials on a variety of issues.

In January 1998 Mr. Aldrich found The Patrick Henry Center for Individual Liberty, a non-profit foundation dedicated to assisting whistleblowers by protecting their First Amendment rights. He is now helping those who want to engage in political dissent through the Tea Party Movement.

Please join us on Monday night to hear Mr. Aldrich speak to us about the ongoing attacks on our liberties while giving us the keys to protecting ourselves from them – all from his Washington DC perspective.

Did you receive one of these?

If so, please let us know that you’re planning to attend so we can make sure to save you a dinner! Send an email to heyjuliesue@gmail.com to rsvp.

Democrats are teaching “voter suppression.”

Posted October 24th, 2011 by Konni

Fellow Patriot,

Democrats are teaching “voter suppression.”

Earlier this month Van Jones, together with MoveOn.org, ThinkProgress, and a host of others, hosted the Take Back the American Dream conference in Washington, DC. At the conference they offered a breakout session entitled “Voter Suppression in the 2012 Election: The Civil Rights Movement to Take Back the Right to Vote.” Several speakers made it a point to single out True the Vote for vilification. No, I’m not kidding. We’ve grown accustomed to outlandish schemes to attract new voters, but equating the fight against election fraud to disenfranchisement is a spin I can’t quite make sense of. Here are a couple of the factually false talking points they use against us:

False Talking Point #1: Election fraud is an imaginary problem.

The claim is that election fraud is a figment of the imagination, used to disenfranchise groups of voters. They couldn’t be more wrong. Here’s just a sample of what we’ve seen in recent election cycles – In Wisconsin, more than 30,000 voter registrations were questioned after it was learned ACORN used felons as registration workers. In Pennsylvania, more than 57,000 registrations were thrown out due to falsification of information, and in Florida there were questions about how 30,000 felons were registered to vote. And just yesterday, an Indiana official resigned over the revelation of hundreds of fraudulent petition signatures that ultimately put Barack Obama on the ballot. Fraud is a problem – and it’s only getting worse.

Fact: Citizens must engage in the support and defense of our electoral process.

True the Vote is a group of concerned citizens from all walks of life, whose political affiliations include Republicans, Democrats, and Independents. We are focused on restoring integrity to our election processes. We are training and mobilizing thousands upon thousands of citizens to volunteer as poll monitors in all 50 states; we are making a difference and you can be a part of it. Every dollar you contribute goes directly towards covering the costs of True the Vote training programs and ongoing support, so please help us by following this link right now to make the most generous contribution you can afford.

False Talking Point #2: Voter ID laws depress turnout.

Opponents of Voter ID laws make outrageous claims of voter disenfranchisement. They are are quick to cry that low-income, minority and elderly voters might be prevented from voting if they have no personal identification, causing overall turnout to be depressed.

Fact: Voter turnout increases in states that have implemented voter ID laws.

As of today, six states (Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Rhode Island, South Carolina and Texas) require individuals to produce a photograph identification card when they vote at their polling place on Election Day. In 2008, the first election in which Georgia had a voter ID law, turnout increased by 6.7%; Democratic turnout increased by 6.1%. During the same election, Indiana saw Democratic voter turnout increase by 8.3% compared to neighbor (and home of President Obama who was on the ballot) Illinois’ 4.4% increase.

The facts are clear. Our electoral system is under assault. With the potential for presidential primaries as early as December this year, we urgently need your support to train poll workers, especially in early voting states like New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina. Your immediate donation is critical to successfully implementing our programs in time for the 2012 elections. That’s why I’m asking you to follow this link to make a donation of $25, $50, $100, $250 or more right now.

If our elections are not truly fair, we are not truly free.

This is your chance to make a difference and ensure that every American enjoys the right to cast their ballot and have it counted.

Onward,

Catherine Engelbrecht
President and Founder, True the Vote

P.S. Don’t be fooled—election fraud is a serious problem in America. That’s why True the Vote is working tirelessly to train and mobilize thousands of volunteer poll monitors in all 50 states ahead of the 2012 elections. With primary season almost here, we urgently need your support. Will you follow this link right now to make the most generous contribution you can afford and take a stand for election integrity?

Video: False Choices, The Story of Agenda 21

Posted October 4th, 2011 by Konni

Here is a great 15 minute video that gives a concise explanation of Agenda 21.  We encourage all NETTP members, freedom lovers, and most importantly – candidates and office holders, to watch this so that we can all be educated on why this flies in the face of all things American.  And then pass it on to others so that they can be educated and stop it’s enforcement in their own towns and cities.

WHY ARE AMERICANS IGNORANT OF ‘AGENDA 21′?

Posted October 4th, 2011 by Konni

by:  Joyce Morrison, NewsWithViews.com

The United Nations Agenda 21 was signed by the United States in 1992 and 14 years later, people are still in the dark. If you were to ask at random the question, “Have you heard of Agenda 21?” the answer would be an over-whelming “No,” although it is being implemented in every local community.

Agenda 21 is a 40 chapter document listing goals to be achieved globally. It is the global plan to change the way we “live, eat, learn and communicate” because we must “save the earth.”

“Its regulation would severely limit water, electricity, and transportation – even deny human access to our most treasured wilderness areas, it would monitor all lands and people. No one would be free from the watchful eye of the new global tracking and information system,” according to Berit Kjos, author of Brave New Schools.

Maurice Strong, Secretary-general of the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro said, “…[C]urrent lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class – involving high meat consumption and large amounts of frozen and convenience foods, use of fossil fuels, appliances, home and workplace air-conditioning, and suburban housing are not sustainable. A shift is necessary which will require a vast strengthening of the multilateral system, including the United Nations.

In other words, the Global plan is for us to live on the level of third world nations. That means no box mixes or microwave meals, limited use of fuel of any kind, no air-conditioning and very little meat. When the cost of freon skyrocketed, when mad cow disease hit, the National Animal Identification System introduced, the price of fuel soared, it has become apparent that given time, these sustainable controls will be put into place – one way or another – and the Global Governance is powerful.

In 1992, Agenda 21 began to change our lives. In that same year, Al Gore wrote his book, Earth in the Balance. To advance his cause, he has now written another piece of fiction entitled, An Inconvenient Truth about global warming…..he even starred in the movie. He also thinks he invented the internet.

Although groundwork had been laid, it took a Bill Clinton to actually introduce something so invasive to our nation and get by with it without the public becoming aware. President Clinton appointed his “President’s Council on Sustainable Development” and he literally gave away the rights and freedoms the framers of the Constitution had provided.

People in the United States may not know about Agenda 21 and the President’s Council on Sustainable Development, but people around the world do. They know that Chicago has one of the greatest numbers of activities existing at the local, neighborhood and/or microregional level. They also know that the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) monitors and promotes activities in this field through their Office for Sustainable Ecosystem and Communities.

Found on a Slovakian website: “To the leading countries in the field of development but especially of practical using of sustainable development indicators belong to the U.S.A. At the top level these activities are promoted by the President’s Council on Sustainable Development (1996), which defined a set of ten national goals toward sustainable development. These goals express in concrete terms the elements of sustainability. Alongside the goals are suggested indicators that can be used to help measure progress toward achieving them.”

Agenda 21 is certainly not a secret. The internet is full of how Agenda 21 has been fulfilled through Smart Growth planning, land use, sustainable development and extreme environmentalism. The so-called agenda is grant driven to your city council or county board in terms of sustainable, visioning, partners, tourism and stakeholders, along with consensus and other terms with the intent to make you believe we are running out of all our resources and we must do our part and “save for tomorrow. [See Agenda 21's Table of Contents.]

It has nothing to do about “saving anything” – it has everything to do with “control.” Sadly, very few congressmen even know Agenda 21 is actually running our country when they are voting to send grant money back home. Agenda 21 is incentive driven as the planners know that greed in the heart of man will be his downfall.

The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, better known as ANWR, has oil we need to be drilling for the security of our nation. Environmentalists don’t seem to understand we are dependent on foreign oil from nations who do not like us and our nation’s defense is at stake. The area where drilling would occur is just a dot in this vast land, yet they would gamble the strength of our nation in behalf of their favorite word –”pristine.”

At the same time, technology is advancing and we may not need the oil later. But we do need it now.

Henry Lamb of Eco-logic, Restructuring the U.N.,  The world changed on 9-11. No longer can the world tilt at the windmills of a fantasized “global village.” No longer can visions of “sustainable development” be justified in a world where “sustainable freedom” is the only possible solution to the economic and power vacuum that foments acts of terrorism.

There is a better way.

Nations can and, ultimately, must learn to live as neighbors, free from the web of “international laws” that dictate which activities are “sustainable” and which are xenophobic and unacceptable. Nation-to-nation relationships, just like neighbor-to-neighbor relationships, should be fashioned voluntarily, driven by mutual benefit. For the first time in a century, the United States may be exploring this possibility.

Henry Lamb is right. We can live as neighbors with other nations but we do not need to live under a “web of international law.” There are dedicated citizens in the United States who are wise enough to set our nation’s guidelines without following Agenda 21 and Sustainable Development as set forth by the United Nations.

EPA Public Hearing- Thursday, September 29th 2011

Posted September 27th, 2011 by Konni

Good Morning,
I am contacting you on behalf of CLEAN Resources.  CLEAN Resources is a group of concerned citizens, small businesses, and other Texans who represent more than 70,000 jobs in the Barnett Shale.  We are a non-profit organization that focuses on education.  We advocate for the development of American energy resources, especially shale gas, as a way to lead this country down the path of energy security, national security, better air quality, economic progress and a cleaner environment.

On Thursday, September 29, 2011, the EPA is hosting a public hearing at Arlington City Hall.  The EPA is considering additional restrictions on the oil and gas operations by proposing further regulations on air quality standards.  These new regulations will impact job creation and economic development in North Texas.

  • The hearing is from 9:00 am until 8:00 pm.  Please feel free to come to any portion of the hearing that is convenient for you.
  • There will be opportunities for citizens to speak at the hearing regarding this issue.  If you are interested, you may register to speak at the hearing by contacting Joan C. Rogers at (919) 541-4487 or rogers.joanc@epa.gov.  Also, you may sign up to speak in person on Thursday at the hearing.
  • Public comments will be accepted through October 24, 2011. When you submit your comments, identify them by Docket ID number: EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-0505.
    • You can submit written comments by doing any of the following:

I have attached a flyer here that contains more information about the EPA public hearing on Thurdsay.
CLEAN Resources wants to encourage as many supporters as possible to join us in speaking out at this public hearing.  It will be highly beneficial to have supporters at the hearing throughout the day to demonstrate to the EPA that we support drilling in the Barnett Shale and oppose unneeded additional regulations that will harm this vital economic sector.

by Billie Tucker, First Coast Tea Party, Florida

While Standard and Poor’s kept our attention about America’s credit downgrade, Obama played other maneuvers that will affect your life.  Here are just a few.  There are many more!

Gun Rights –  NRA President, Wayne LaPierre, announces an all out fight with the Obama Administration.  He said, “If they want to fight with the NRA, then bring it on.”  He doesn’t hold back as he speaks to the issue of the US firearms ending up with drug cartels in Mexico.  This is shocking and outrageous.  Watch here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgo9iIH45RA

Food and Land Takeover — The President created the White House Rural council to make sure we are working across Government entities (?) to ensure economic growth.  Homeland Security, Justice Department and Treasury Department will be involved in promoting our food and land use.  Why?  President Regan talked about this and warned us about the very thing Obama is doing.  This is another way for the government to tell us what to do with our land.  Watch here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_juUVKKBw-k

Bashing the rich – This is an oldie but goodie and proves this issue has always been around and the left resurrects it when they need it.  Watch Milton Friedman, world-class economist teach a liberal woman the truth about “rich people.”  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi-D24oCa10&feature=player_embedded

As a SEAL I spit on you – “Even if we were friends and you called me a terrorist you would be expected to explain your actions and your beef with me or we would have to settle this like men.   I respect your positions of office and would still call you sir and ma’am, but beyond that I spit on you!  As a citizen, I spit on you.  As a SEAL, I spit on you.  As an American, I spit on the very thought of your Communist tactics.”  Read this heartfelt article by a SEAL and Tea Party Member:  http://biggovernment.com/bsmith/2011/08/06/bidenpelosi-if-im-satan-what-does-that-make-you/

So what can you do about this out of control government?


Locally – attend a tea party meeting and join forces with moms, dads, business owners, high school graduates, college graduates, and yes, Navy SEALS who are just as upset as you.  To find out what’s happening in North Florida at the First Coast Tea Party, go here:  http://www.fctpcommunity.org/events

Nationally – Contact your Representative at www.congress.gov and tell them to get back to DC now and fix this mess!  Hold Obama accountable and do their jobs.  See what the Wall Street Journal said today about an emergency hearing.  This is not the time for vacations; it’s time for serious leadership.  Are they serious?  Read it here:     http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/aug/6/obamas-downgraded-america/

Rural Council – Sign the Petition now:  Stop Obama’s Rural Council

NRA Lawsuit – Join the NRA and support this lawsuit against Obama  Join the NRA here

Bashing the Rich – Thank your boss tomorrow for your job or support a local business establishment and tell them you appreciate them.
