Doing so is difficult but can be done, and MUST be done if We the People have any hope of reeling in an out of control federal government, virtually an oligarchy controlled by Marxists like Nazi war criminal george soros, mark zuckerberg, bill gates, jeff bezos, bill deblasio, and other leftist billionaires/millionaires. The process is already started, with 19 state legislatures having voted to call for a CC. It takes 34 to actually convene a convention and takes 38 states to ratify the results.</strong></p><p><strong>I have long supported the concept but have been, and still am, skeptical of success because I expect the tyrants in the devildemocommiecrat party and their co-conspirators in the gop establishment to just ignore We the People and the Constitution as they do currently. Sadly, America has reached the point where politicians, bureaucrats, and judges, controlled by billionaire oligarchs couldn't care less about the Constitution and We the People.</strong></p><p><strong>Although I remain suspicious of the tyrants obeying anything We the People pass I want to see it done so it is on the record that citizens acted within the Constitution to "redress our grievances" as stated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. If the tyrants refuse to abide by a COS then We the People will have unmistakable and undeniable justification to conduct an insurrection or even a revolution to force them to comply. I don't relish the idea of another revolution but we may not have any other option if we desire to live in freedom.</strong></p><p><strong>Prior to 1776 citizens began an insurrection against the tyranny of King George III of England because he refused to listen to them. The Boston Tea Party was one aspect of the sedition/insurrection. Another aspect were pamphlets printed by rebels stating their grievances and urging people to openly oppose the king's tyranny. He eventually ordered British soldiers to go out and confiscate guns from the colonists. What most people don't seem to know is that the act of confiscating firearms was the "last straw" and citizen soldiers, the Minutemen, roup and fought the soldiers. The original group that fought on Lexington Green in Massachusetts lost their battle, being outnumbered 40 or so against 750 soldiers but delayed the soldiers enough to mobilize others. The weapons stored at Concord were moved before the detachment of soldiers got there and running gun battles from Concord to Boston killed or wounded more than half of the British. The "shot heard around the world" was the beginning of the Revolutionary War that won our independence from England. Today, in 2023, We the People are living under the same tyranny King George imposed on the colonies. </strong></p><p><strong>EVERY gun control law passed is unconstitutional and their plan of confiscation is moving along quietly while We the People are distracted by other problems. Devildemocommiecrats, the Pravda/Goebbels fake news propagandists, and deep state gop establishment hacks openly speak of "mandatory gun buy backs" "for the safety of citizens" but people know what their plan is, the same one implemented by every dictator in the 20th Century. First they get people to register their guns so they know who has what, then they offer money while threatening imprisonment for non-compliance. Once they know where the guns are they will send their Gestapo (fbi) and other heavily armed bureaucrats out to forcefully seize weapons and kill anyone who resists just as the British did in 1776.</strong></p><p><strong>Another tactic they are beginning to use is restricting credit card use to not allow people to use credit cards to buy guns, ammunition, o, magazines, or other related equipment. The regime of dementia and the whore, the 3rd term of fuhrer obama, is moving towards implementing a digital monetary system that will ban the use of cash and give the federal government complete control over what can or cannot be purchased, including firearms and related items. Once they get the Central Bank Digital Currency established they won't need to ban gun sales through illegal legislation, they can just ban the sale through restrictions on the use of the digital currency. In addition, they will be able to empty the bank accounts of anyone who refuses to bow to tyranny by going online and deleting funds.</strong></p><p><strong>Tyranny is ramping up rapidly under the current regime as they ignore the Constitution and We the People. The arrogance of the political ruling class is completely out of control. They take no notice of citizens who demand the Constitution be followed. Their persecution of President Trump (still my president) under false accusations while ignoring very clear TREASONOUS actions by the dementia regime, money laundering, influence peddling, and selling American technology and secrets to our enemies, China, Russia, and Iran for personal financial gain. What they are doing is disgusting and infuriating. I have the military training and experience to be a major problem to them but am old and very disabled from a stroke I had in 2014 and barely able to walk while not being able to fire a rifle due to paralysis of my left arm. I am not even mobile enough to be able to train younger people to fight so can't really be any more helpful than to warn people about what is happening to their liberty. Articles like this one are my way of being a "Paul Revere", hoping lots of people will read, understand, and begin to openly oppose government tyranny.</strong></p><p><strong>America needs a serious change of direction before the current decline in moral and ethical standards totally destroys what is left of the nation given to us and preserved by millions of men and women, including myself, who went to war to keep America free. The current illegitimate regime is hell bent on destroying America so their long lusted for one world global government (dictatorship) can be implemented. Whether a Convention of States will solve our problems remains to be seen but I believe must at least be attempted. If a COS doesn't solve the problem then our only recources are to bow to tyranny or fight for liberty. I pray daily that a Revolutionary War will not be necessary because the death toll would be tremendous and the destruction of infrastructure just as bad but I WILL NOT bow to tyrants. I prefer Patrick Henry's attitude, "give me liberty or give me death". I also live by Dr. Martin Luther King's admonition to "judge people by the content of their character not the color of their skin".</strong></p><p><strong>I submit this in the name of the Most Holy Trinity, in faith, with the responsibility given to me by Almighty God to honor His work and not let it die from neglect.</strong></p><p><strong>Bob Russell</strong></p><p><strong>Claremore, Oklahoma</strong></p><p><strong>December 6, 2023</strong></p></div>SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES VOTE SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY OCTOBER 17?https://patriotcommandcenter.org/forum/speaker-of-the-house-of-representatives-vote-scheduled-for-tuesda2023-10-16T19:00:49.000Z2023-10-16T19:00:49.000ZBob Russellhttps://patriotcommandcenter.org/members/BobRussell<div><p> </p><p><strong>Rp. Jim Jordan of Ohio has long been a staunch conservative that We the People could depend on to stand up against the gop establish-ment swamp rats on behalf of us. I heard today that he has made agreements with gop "moderates" to gain their support. This is frightening due to the things "moderates" stand for. They are mostly swamp rats that are part of the gop establishment deep state TRAITOR cabal. My fear is that Jordan will sell out to get the position and become just another establishment hack who will cave to devildemocommiecrats to curry favor with them and their Pravda/Goebbels fake news propagandists as have his last 3 predecessors, boehner, ryan, and mccarthy.</strong></p><p><strong>The goip establishment has sold us out so many times that I don't see 10 cents worth of difference between them and the devildemo-commiecrats who hate America and desire to see us become just another 3rd world dictatorship under the thumb of a global dictatorship that they have been working towards for the last 30 years, at least.0 The swamp rats of the gop establishment opposed everything President Trump did and made every attempt they could to undermine his "America first" agenda.</strong></p><p><strong>If Jordan throws in the towel We the People are right back where we started before the TRAITOR mccarthy was removed as speaker. If Jordan surrenders to the deep state We the People are no better off than we were with mccarthy in charge. There is very little difference between the political parties. America is under the control of a globalist uni-party with very few republicans standing behind the Constitution,liberty, and the rule of law. The witch hunt indictments of President Trump with absolutely no justification while ignoring boatloads of evidence of TREASON and taking bribes committed by joe dementia are proof of the deep state's conspiracy to destroy America.</strong></p><p><strong>I pray daily that Almighty God will pour His Holy Spirit out on America and briing about a massive revival that will return America to its once held status as "a shining city on a hill". 2nd Chronicles 7:14 gives us the path to prosperity andthrough safety, God's favor that comes from repentence and obedience to His commandments. If citizens who claim to be Christians will do what God tells us in His Word to do we will see massive positive changes take place in our land. We the People elect people who make promises to get our votes then forget what they said as soon as they take office and lobbyists start pouring bribe money into their hands. I hope and pray that Jim Jordan will not bow to the lobbyists and their lemmings in the gop establishment.</strong></p><p><strong>Rep. Jordan, PLEASE stand strong for We the People and refuse to bow to pressure from people who have bowed to evil for personal wealth and power in this life. Those who betray everything for personal gain in this life will pay for it in the next where bribes, threats, and name calling will get them nowhere! We the People need for you to stand strong against the evil forces that now control government, media, hollywood, and most corporate board rooms. Without responsible, honest people who will act in integrity America is doomed to failure very soon. </strong></p><p><strong>I submit this in the name of the Most Holy Trinity, in faith, with the responsibility given to me by Almighty God to honor His work and not let it die from neglect.</strong></p><p><strong>Bob Russell</strong></p><p><strong>Claremore, Oklahoma</strong></p><p><strong>October 16, 2023</strong></p></div>Alek Skarlatos, Hero Who Stopped Terrorist Train Attack, Now Running to Flip Key Oregon Districthttps://patriotcommandcenter.org/forum/alek-skarlatos-hero-who-stopped-terrorist-train-attack-now-runnin2020-06-16T11:21:43.000Z2020-06-16T11:21:43.000ZAdmin Melony B.

<p class="subheading">Alek Skarlatos, the Army National Guard veteran who heroically stopped a terrorist from hijacking a train, is now running to flip a key district in Oregon that could help deliver the House to Republicans.</p>
<p>Skarlatos is running for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives to represent Oregon’s 4th district — a district that Hillary Clinton won by only a tenth of a percent over President Trump.</p>
<p>He is running to dislodge far-left incumbent Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-OR), who has held that seat for 33 years and is a backer of defunding the police and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) Green New Deal.</p>
<p>Skarlatos said he decided to run after meeting a state senator and looking into why his district was the poorest in the state.</p>
<p>“The more I learned, the angrier I got,” he said on Sirius XM’s <em>Breitbart News Saturday</em>, where he spoke with host Matthew Boyle, Breitbart News political editor, to discuss his run.</p>
<p>“You had a huge economic downturn [in southwest Oregon] since timber went away in the late 80s, early 90s, and it’s really all just been politically motivated. There’s been no real tangible reason for southwestern Oregon being the poorest Congressional district in the state,” he said.</p>

<p class="subheading">A leaked 2015 internal Democrat Party memo warned top House Democrats not to embrace the Black Lives Matter movement because it was described by the Democrat Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) as a “radical movement.”</p>
<p>The memo, from then-DCCC official Troy Perry addressed to “DCCC Staff” on Thursday Nov. 19, 2015, noted that the Democrats’ 2016 presidential candidates “have struggled to respond to tactics of the Black Lives Matter movement.” Perry was at the time he wrote this the DCCC’s Director of Diversity and Public Engagement.</p>
<p>“While there has been little engagement with House candidates, candidates and campaign staff should be prepared,” Perry wrote.</p>
<p>The DCCC is the official arm of the Democrat Party charged with electing Democrats to the U.S. House of Representatives. When this 2015 memo was drafted, Democrats were in the minority in the U.S. House—seeking a return to the majority that they did not achieve in the 2016 elections as now President Donald Trump won the White House and the GOP held its House majority riding the president’s coattails. Later, though, Democrats would win the House majority back in the 2018 midterm elections.</p>

<p class="Component-root-0-2-56 Component-p-0-2-48">The Supreme Court on Wednesday temporarily prevented the House of Representatives from obtaining secret grand jury testimony from special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.</p>
<p class="Component-root-0-2-56 Component-p-0-2-48">The court’s unsigned order granted the Trump administration’s request to keep previously undisclosed details from the investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election out of the hands of Democratic lawmakers, at least until early summer.</p>
<p class="Component-root-0-2-56 Component-p-0-2-48">The court will decide then whether to extend its hold and schedule the case for arguments in the fall. If it does, it’s likely the administration will be able to put off the release of any materials until after Election Day. Arguments themselves might not even take place before Americans decide whether to give President Donald Trump a second term.</p>

<p>The Supreme Court on Friday granted the Trump administration's request to temporarily shield redacted grand jury materials related to special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe from the Democrat-led House.</p>
<p><strong>House Democrats are fighting to gain access to the materials,</strong> arguing that it being made public will give Americans a fuller image of how the Trump administration behaved during the two-year investigation.</p>
<p>The Mueller probe failed to establish any criminal coordination between the Trump campaign and Moscow. And though the special counsel did not declare that the president did not obstruct justice, the attorney general, and then-deputy attorney general determined he did not.</p>

<p><strong>You understand why San Fran Nan won’t call the House back in session, right?</strong> It’s because she and Chuck Schumer are trying to shame Mitch McConnell into keeping the Senate shut down.</p>
<p>Why? Well, it’s obvious: They want to keep the Senate shut down in order to prevent the confirmation of President Trump’s judicial nominees and other key nominees like John Ratcliffe, who is up to become the Director of National Intelligence.</p>
<p>Luckily, McConnell is having none of it, and called the Senate back into session this week with his main goal to specifically get those nominees moving again. He understands that it is crucial for the nation to get back to some semblance of normalcy as soon as possible in order to avoid a massive economic depression, and that America won’t get back to some semblance of normalcy if its elected leaders are all holed up in their basements like Joe Biden and Chris Cuomo.</p>
<p>But Democrats are different – make no mistake about it. They don’t care about people dying or 30 million Americans having been put out of jobs; all they care about is politics. After all, the Wuhan Virus is killing mainly old people, and old people happen to be mostly Republican voters. Democrats like Pelosi and Schumer see this and their only thought is that man, this could really tilt a few congressional races in November if enough old people die in the right districts.</p>
<p>Those 30 million additional unemployed? To your typical Democrat politician, their only thought is that that is one huge target-rich environment of potential Democrat voters. If they can just keep enough of those 30 million on unemployment until November it could be an electoral gold mine.</p>

<p class="subheading">Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) explained how House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) could reconvene the House while implementing social distancing and other safety measures regarding the coronavirus, pointing to the White House and various businesses as illustrations of such operations. He offered his remarks on Wednesday’s edition of SiriusXM’s <em>Breitbart News Daily</em> with host Alex Marlow.</p>
<p>“What is the logic behind the Congress staying home at this moment [and] not coming back to Washington?” asked Marlow.</p>
<p>Scalise replied, “For whatever reason, Speaker Pelosi and her majority want to just sit back in San Francisco or wherever else they’re at and write bills in secret.”</p>
<p>Last week, the House of Representatives <a class="x5l" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/04/23/coronavirus-updates-house-to-pass-small-business-relief-bill.html" target="_blank">carried</a> out votes on legislation in small groups to reduce risks of coronavirus transmission. Scalise said, “We showed last week [how] Congress can come back to work safely. This is not about trading off safety. It’s about being smart. We had a vote where it took a little over an hour, and we were able to bring everybody into the House Chamber in groups, so there were no more than ten people around voting at any particular moment. Everybody was socially distancing.”</p>
<p>Congress should prioritize the “full, safe recovery and reopening of our economy,” Scalise stated, “That’s what Congress should be doing, leading by example, working with President Trump, who’s there in the White House working himself with his whole team and still getting the job done safely. … Why can’t Congress be doing the same thing? Speaker Pelosi, I think, dropped the ball on this.”</p>

<p>Rep. Dan Crenshaw slammed House Democratic leadership for caving to its caucus and delaying the next session of Congress indefinitely amid the coronavirus pandemic.</p>

<p>Democrat House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) sought on Wednesday to deflect blame for the Democrats stalling to replenish funds in the Paycheck Protection Program by claiming that it was really the Republicans who stalled the funding, which is not true. </p>
<p>“We’re very pleased that the Senate finally accepted the fact that we needed more money for testing, for hospitals, for lower, smaller businesses to participate in the Paycheck Protection Program,” Pelosi claimed. “It took them, that took them a couple of weeks, but they finally did.”</p>
<p>“Mitch McConnell likes to say we delayed the bill. No, he delayed the bill,” Pelosi falsely claimed. “So we were very pleased that he finally came around to the fact that we had to go forward with this. So he was the one wasting time. I say that because I keep hearing him say we delayed. No, he delayed.”</p>
<p>Pelosi’s claims are not true.</p>
