I'm so grateful my prayers were answered. I have despised this man for so long. 😢
Since this whole virus thing started I was so scared for my family and their future. I was
so confused about what was really going on. I was losing it locked up in a tiny house by
myself. I wanted to be with my family I wanted to go back to work I wanted things back
the way they were. So I prayed to know Gods will. I prayed for discernment. I know
God loves me. Because when I need Him the most He is there for me. He answers my
prayers.
The next day my sister shared a video with me and it was at a certain point in that
video where it felt like a veil had been removed from in front of my eyes and I could see.
At first I was shocked because I felt it went against all I thought I had stood for my whole
life. And then the Holy Ghost in a split second testified to me that I had been deceived.
When I look at this picture I realize what a hard job our president has. I know he is far
from perfect just like ALL the rest of us. But I also realize that he was chosen to do this
job. It takes someone with his demeanor to stand up to the attacks that are coming from
all sides. Just not us as a country but himself personally. A weak minded individual could
not endure what is currently unfolding. I watch the briefings as much as possible. And that
has shown me even more so how biased our media is. And how they are dividing us. And
we are letting them. Sometimes I feel terrible that I have been so negative towards this man
until recently. But then I realize how blessed I am to have had the courage to change. And
I want to let others who might be experiencing this to know. That it's okay to change your
mind. It's okay to admit you are wrong. It will set you free. And I'm grateful to have a man
in the White House who is fighting for my freedom everyday. Because rest assured, there
are forces working very hard to strip us of them. I'm ashamed that I was bamboozled by
past administrations that I endorsed. But that does not supersede this personal revelation. ❤️
Thank you Heavenly Father!
And Thank you Mr President for excepting the call to serve us!

Further proof that Democrats don't know how to administer anything - city, state,

This morning another reader complemented Cuomo's approach to handling the
Covid 19 crisis and the reopening of the State of New York's economy. While there
are reasons beyond Cuomo's or anybody's control why NY had more issues than
Florida and other states....there were two actions by NY Democrats that were fatal.
NYC Mayor's initial reaction to keep the city open and Cuomo's decision to move
COVID-19 victims into nursing homes, Both were huge errors resulting in unintended
catastrophic consequences. Nevertheless, they were no less criminal than if you or I
were charged with criminal negligence in the unintended wrongful death of another human
being.

Thanks to Nancy Turlington sending this for our All Veterans Association members. Wow, what a
plane. Certain the crew were saying their prayers.
Stay safe and healthy.-------------------------------------------

A real miracle - from WW II...…...d
B-17 "All American" (414th Squadron, 97BG) Crew
Pilot- Ken Bragg Jr.
Co-pilot- G Boyd Jr.
Navigator- Harry C. Nuessle
Bombardier- Ralph Burbridge
Engineer- Joe C. James
RadioOperator-Paul A. Galloway
Ball Turret Gunner- Elton Conda
Waist Gunner- Michael Zuk
Tail Gunner- Sam T. Sarpolus
Ground Crew Chief- Hank Hyland

In 1943 a mid-air collision on February 1, 1943, between a B-17 and a
German fighter over the Tunis dock area, became the subject of one of the most
famous photographs of WW II. An enemy fighter attacking a 97th Bomb Group
formation went out of control, probably with a wounded pilot, then continued its
crashing descent into the rear of the fuselage of a Flying Fortress named"All
American", piloted by Lt. Kendrick R. Bragg, of the 414th Bomb Squadron.
When it struck, the fighter broke apart, but left some pieces in the B-17. The
left horizontal stabilizer of the Fortress and left elevator were completely torn away.
The two right engines were out and one on the left had a serious oil pump leak. The
vertical fin and the rudder had been damaged, The fuselage had been cut almost
completely through connected only at two small parts of the frame, and the radios,
electrical and oxygen systems were damaged. There was also a hole in the top that
was over 16-feet long and 4 feet wide at its widest; The split in the fuselage went all
the way to the top gunner's turret.
Although the tail actually bounced and swayed in the wind and twisted when
the plane turned and all the control cables were severed, except one single elevator
cable still worked, and the aircraft miraculously still flew! The tail gunner was trapped
because there was no floor connecting the tail to the rest of the plane. The waist and
tail gunners used parts of the German fighter and their own parachute harnesses in an
attempt to keep the tail from ripping off and the two sides of the fuselage from splitting
apart. While the crew was trying to keep the bomber from coming apart, the pilot
continued on his bomb run and released his bombs over the target.
When the bomb bay doors were opened, the wind turbulence was so great that it
blew one of the waist gunners into the broken tail section. It took several minutes and
four crew members to pass him ropes from parachutes and haul him back into the
forward part of the plane. When they tried to do the same for the tail gunner, the tail began
flapping so hard that it began to break off. The weight of the gunner was adding some
stability to the tail section, so he went back to his position.
The turn back toward England had to be very slow to keep the tail from twisting off.
They actually covered almost 70 miles to make the turn home. The bomber was so badly
damaged that it was losing altitude and speed and was soon alone in the sky. For a brief
time, two more Me-109 German fighters attacked theAll American. Despite the extensive
damage, all of the machine gunners were able to respond to these attacks and soon drove
off the fighters. The two waist gunners stood up with their heads sticking out through the
hole in the top of the fuselage to aim and fire their machine guns.The tail gunner had to
shoot in short bursts because the recoil was actually causing the plane to turn.
Allied P-51 fighters intercepted theAll Americanas it crossed over the Channel and
took one of the pictures shown. They also radioed to the base describing that the appendage
was waving like a fish tail and that the plane would not make it and to send out boats to
rescue the crew when they bailed out. The fighters stayed with the Fortress, taking hand
signals from Lt. Bragg and relaying them to the base. Lt. Bragg signaled that 5 parachutes and
the spare had been "used" so five of the crew could not bail out. He made the decision that if
they could not bail out safely, then he would stay with the plane to land it.
Two and a half hours after being hit, the aircraft made its final turn to line up with
the
runway while it was still over 40 miles away. It descended into an emergency landing and a
normal roll-out on its landing gear When the ambulance pulled alongside, it was waved off
because not a single member of the crew had been injured. No one could believe that the
aircraft could still fly in such a condition. The Fortress sat placidly until the crew all
exited
through the door in the fuselage and the tail gunner had climbed down a ladder, at which time
the entire rear section of the aircraft collapsed.
This old bird had done its job and brought the entire crew home uninjured.

Please pass this on to someone who will also appreciate this amazing story.

Fw: How big a Department of Education does Oklahoma need?

I found this in my mail this morning and consider it worthy of wide spreading
to those of us concerned about our schools, which I consider to be totally in the
wrong direction as when they had me as a student, 1930 to 1943, K-12.

How big a Department of Education does Oklahoma need?
From curriculum to nutrition to family engagement to technology, the Oklahoma
State Department of Education's interference in your local school never rests. And
when the state isn't overregulating schools, it's promoting the indoctrination of
students into a progressive political agenda.
By Greg Forster, Ph.D.
A lot of educational problems have remained consistent in Oklahoma over the
years, stubbornly resisting all efforts to remove them. Spending goes up while
outcomes stay flat. Local schools are buried under mountains of unnecessary regulation.
Political agendas of the Left and Right (but usually the Left) get shoved into the
classroom in hopes of indoctrinating the young.
There's no magic wand to remove all these ills, but what if there were something
we could do that would at least mitigate all of them?
No, no, I mean something else besides the patently obvious thing we should be
doing, which is enacting universal school choice. While we wait for the advent of
greater wisdom on that topic, Oklahoma could take a look at another solution: shrink
the state department of education. (Absolutely & Amen, RWM)
According to Oklahoma Watch, the Oklahoma State Department of Education
has 485 employees. The state has only 1,924 public schools, so that's almost exactly
one department employee for every four schools in the state. It's not quite the old
joke about the U.S. Department of Agriculture employee who was found distraught at
his desk because his farmer had died, but it's getting there.
What do Oklahoma schools get in exchange for all this? Not funding. The state
legislature appropriates funds for public schools according to formulas written into the
law. Indeed, state funding for education is one of the very few places left in American
governance where legislatures still make their own decisions instead of delegating all
the hard choices to the administrative state. Oklahoma could fund its public schools
with no more than a handful of state employees involved, to gather data and program
the check-writing machines.
Red Tape
No, the main thing local schools get from the state department of education is
officious regulation. You can see this by glancing at the list of divisions (https://sde.
ok.gov/directory?utm_source=OCPA+Master&utm_campaign=c3f4654b4b-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_12_10_03_32
_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&
utm_term=0_1acebeac5c-c3f4654b4b-137165401) in the department. Almost all
of them are concerned with exercising various kinds of state control over local
schools. From curriculum to nutrition to family/community engagement to technology,
the state's interference in your local school never rests.
But surely having all these state employees turned out to be a huge help to local
schools when the coronavirus emergency hit, didn't it? On the contrary, the
department informed local schools that they needed to submit plans for dealing with
the crisis to the state for approval—unless they chose to adopt the state's preferred
plan, in which case they were off the hook. Because local schools had nothing better
to do at the height of the crisis than lobby the state government for permission to
handle the crisis in the way that would work in their communities.
The document informing local schools of this helpful assertion of state control
even bragged about how the department was considering the needs of local communities
(https://sde.ok.gov/sites/default/files/documents/files/20200325124831229.pdf?utm_source=OCPA+M
aster&utm_campaign=c3f4654b4b-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_12_10_03_32_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term
=0_1acebeac5c-c3f4654b4b-137165401) . If it had been, the document wouldn't have existed in the
first place.
The state even closed down virtual charter schools
(https://www.ocpathink.org/post/oklahoma-closes-public-schools-including-online-schools
utm_source=OCPA+Master&utm_campaign=c3f4654b4b-
EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_12_10_03_32_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_1acebeac5c-c3f4654b4b-13716
5401) for a while, denying them an exemption to the order that
schools had to close for quarantine. It would be nice to think this was mere bureaucratic
inertia—an inability to make an exception to the rules for anything, even for digital
learning during a pandemic. The more likely explanation is that the state saw an
opportunity to flex its muscle and shut down an alternative to the government monopoly.
Before you cry "libertarian!" and make preparations to burn me at the stake, let me
make three observations. First, this is not about the extent to which government controls
private citizens, it's about the extent to which state government controls local government.
School districts and even charter schools are government entities. Our constitutional order
depends on a healthy division of powers between these entities. That division is destroyed
when states turn local governments into mere administrative units of the state, existing only
to carry out what the state dictates.
Second, there is no reason in the world local schools can't be trusted to handle these
issues for themselves. Are local school boards incompetent to supervise lunchroom
nutrition or classroom use of computers? What is the argument against letting each district,
or even each school, control its own family/community engagement, technology, menus,
and even curricula?
There are, it is true, real problems with local school governance structures—such as
school board elections held at odd times so only the special interests vote. But that's no
excuse to take power from imperfectly accountable school boards and give it to even less
accountable state bureaucrats. Fix the local governance systems instead of using their
anemia as an excuse to subvert the constitutional order, protecting more and more
decisions from democratic accountability with a wall of bureaucratic insulation.
Third, there is ample evidence of harmful state overreach. I've written before ("Relax
school regulations
(https://www.ocpathink.org/post/relax-school-regulations?utm_source=OCPA+Master&utm_campaign=c3
f4654b4b-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_12_10_03_32_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_1acebeac5c-c3f4654
b4b-137165401) ") about how badly overregulated Oklahoma schools are. The
1889 Institute counted 610 systems of state regulation controlling Oklahoma public schools
[download the Excel sheet here
(http://1889institute.org/education-regulation?utm_source=OCPA+Master&utm_campaign=c3f4654b4b-E
MAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_12_10_03_32_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_1acebeac5c-c3f4654b4b-137165
401) ]. They cover everything from tracking teachers' professional
development "points" to specifying the permissible calorie content of diet soda.
It's not 100% clear to me that schools ought to expend any portion of their scarce
labor and budget bandwidth on the vital task of monitoring how many calories are in the diet
soda their students drink. But it is clear to me that if there is any question—any question
whatsoever—that ought to be settled at the local level in our constitutional order, this is it.
If
states can control this, we should give up on pretending we still have a constitutional
division
of powers; it's diet soda all the way down.
Clawing back this overregulation is not just a matter of downsizing the state
department
of education. The regulatory laws themselves will have to be reformed. But those are just two
sides of the same coin. Shrinking the bloated and burdensome administrative state and
reforming laws that overreach are really the same job.
Progressive Ideology
When the Oklahoma State Department of Education isn't overregulating schools, it's
promoting the indoctrination of students into a progressive political agenda. Last year the
department pushed recommendations that Oklahoma public schools scrap moderate,
sensible solutions to the transgenderism
(https://www.ocpathink.org/post/oklahoma-education-agency-newsletter-includes-transgender-bathr

=email&utm_term=0_1acebeac5c-c3f4654b4b-137165401) conundrum—such as allowing students who
identify as
transgender to use faculty restrooms or other separate facilities—and instead forcibly invade
students' most intimate bodily privacy by bringing biological boys into the girls' rooms and
vice versa. It also pushed schools to work with Generation Citizen, a civic-education
nonprofit whose student activities bear the heavy stamp of progressive ideology
(https://www.ocpathink.org/post/oklahoma-education-agency-promotes-progressive-activism-masquer
ading-as-civics?utm_source=OCPA+Master&utm_campaign=c3f4654b4b-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_12_10_03_32_
COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_1acebeac5c-c3f4654b4b-137165401) .
Of course, Oklahoma is not going to just eliminate its department of education. Some
state regulations of schools are sensible—especially monitoring respect for civil rights.
Defining clear educational standards is a valid state function. Compliance with federal
regulations is also an important issue; one might even think the state could learn something
about the burden of state overreach upon local governance from its experience of federal
overreach upon its own governance.
But while some kind of state educational department is a necessity, one employee for
every four schools seems excessive. Oklahoma could save a few bucks on bureaucratic
salaries if it could only find a way to get its state government out of the business of
regulating
the diet soda in every one of its schools.

I've seen that on quite a few posts and on many news stations.
It's a thinly veiled accusation that Trump didn't act quickly enough.

Well I'm mad too.

I'm mad that Pelosi and the U.S. House wasted close to 3 months pursuing
an obviously futile impeachment of the President.
I'm mad that Pelosi sat on those very impeachment papers for 28 days before
sending them on to the Senate.
I'm mad that the Senate was shut down for 21 days in January and early
February dealing with Pelosi's impeachment, thereby leaving Trump to deal with
Covid alone, with no support from either the House or Senate.
I'm mad that the day the President closed travel to and from China, Chuck
Schumer declared the action "racist".
I'm mad that 28 days after the travel restriction, Nancy Pelosi, downplaying
the severity of the virus, begged people to visit Chinatown in San Francisco, again
playing the race card.
I'm mad that Pelosi swooped in at the last hour of the stimulus package,
adding things that were pure politics and had nothing to do with the dire
circumstances at hand.
I'm mad that the Obama administration didn't replenish the National Medical
stockpile of masks after the H1N1 virus scare.
I'm mad that there are top doctors and experts in many fields having to waste
their time at daily press briefings just so the "media" can pester them with gotcha
questions that they think might be their ticket to a Pulitzer.
I'm mad that Pelosi is now talking about an investigation into Trump's handling
of the Covid crisis. Every day, every turn, every word, every breath since before he
was elected, President Trump has been attacked, mocked, accused and belittled by
Pelosi and her gang.
