Good News Friday July 16



Dear Patriots,

Honestly, it was a bit of a challenge finding the good news for this week's Good News Friday.
A line from a very, very, very old song kept playing in our heads.

"Bad news on the doorstep, I couldn't take one more step."
(American Pie-1971)

There is much difficulty and uncertainty happening in our world and so many people who are doing nothing about it. (Talking to you Elected Republicans!) Be assured that a lot of people DO recognize what is happening and are trying very hard to change the direction our national GPS currently has us on. We dug deep and DID find today's GOOD NEWS!!!

1-
At LEAST 17,000 kids may have been rescued from the propaganda clutches of the government school system in just one state! Check YOUR state on the map at the link.
Federal data confirm MN public school enrollment down 17,000 students
Federal data released Monday revealed Minnesota K-12 public school enrollment dropped by 2.36 percent — roughly 17,000 students — in 2020 compared with the previous school year, according to The 74.
###

2- WHAT are the odds?
Witnesses Claim Lightning Hit George Floyd Mural, Causing It to Crumble
QUOTE: Witnesses claimed a George Floyd mural in Toledo, OH, on a building crumbled due to a lightning strike.
City building inspector Hugh Koogan disputed the account because "the wall had been showing signs of weakness for some time and literally just gave way on its own."
###
3- We have been dealing with this illogical subject of "global warming" and now "climate change" for more than 30 years.
The Climate-Change Agenda Goes Out With a Bang. Ambitious plans conceal growing voter skepticism. Politicians will catch on sooner or later, and hard.
QUOTE: We're supposed to view this week as a banner occasion in the annals of climate change. The European Union unveiled a mammoth new plan to control carbon emissions, while Beijing rolled out an emissions-trading scheme and the U.K. released a plan to green up transportation.

Except this is all happening as climate politics seem to be undergoing a rapid and significant shift in many places, and not in the direction environmental activists hoped. To wit: Voters have started noticing how much they're each going to have to spend to reduce carbon emissions, and they don't like it. It's a startlingly broad phenomenon.
###

4- THE most investigated and probed man in all of historical time, past, present and future.
Every Left-Wing Attempt To Prosecute Trump Has Failed. From impeachment to tax evasion charges, desperate attempts to criminalize the former president have fallen flat.

QUOTE: Political prosecutions are not new in America. Political pogroms are. It is sad to watch the Democratic Party embrace such third-world practices as policy. It is sadder to note there has never in history been a more sustained yet unsuccessful political effort to oust or destroy one man.

Even before Donald Trump took office, Democrats claimed Russia elected him as the Manchurian candidate. The intelligence community-Democratic Party-media tripartite axis then swung for the fences, using wiretaps obtained through FISA fraud, honeytraps, Australian and Israeli cutouts, intel scrubbed by GHQ, and every other trick in the spy business. They came up so empty-handed even a Deep State O.G. like Robert Mueller could not find anything indictable.
This level of paranoid vengeance is scary, a sign that a portion of the electorate's critical thinking skills have been eaten by political syphilis. The Democrats should carefully consider the secondary effects of their actions, and ask (as voters will) if the goal is law enforcement or a political kill shot. If it is the latter, they better not miss. Again.
###
5- Some Elected Republicans in the states are working very hard to fix elections so that we can have full faith in the results. All Elected Democrats oppose this.
Texas Senate Passes Voter Integrity Bill As Democrats Flee State To Subvert Democracy
QUOTE: The Texas Senate passed a voter integrity bill while 51 Texas Democrat House members and eight Texas Democrat Senate members fled the state to subvert democracy by denying the Republican-led House the quorum needed to approve bills in Governor Greg Abbott's special session agenda.
"Senators voted 18-4 along party lines to approve the legislation. Eight Senate Democrats announced that they too had fled to Washington, D.C., on Monday, with a ninth expected to arrive Monday evening," National Review reported. "However, with 22 out of 31 members present, the Senate kept a quorum and was able to pass the measure."
###

6- Join any group that is pushing back on your alma mater.
God and Man at W&L - University alumni are fighting the progressive culture — William F. Buckley Jr. style.
QUOTE: As the battle for the future of the university has raged on, a most encouraging, grassroots — and "Buckley-esque" — response has emerged from alumni and friends.

An organization known as The Generals Redoubt (TGR) was formed in 2018. This group of alumni, parents, and friends has actively challenged the revisionists and is responding as Buckley had long ago hoped they would.


TGR's campaign was instrumental in the W&L Board's recent rejection of faculty demands to change the university's name. TGR has attracted over 9,700 followers. While alumni giving to W&L is down, TGR has raised over $1,000,000. Encouragingly, alumni groups at Davidson College, University of Virginia, VMI, Yale, University of Texas, and other colleges are now emulating this model.
###

7- We KNOW how many United States "legal experts" depend on international precedent.
Spanish High Court Rules Pandemic Lockdown Unconstitutional

QUOTE: The first Wuhan coronavirus lockdown imposed by the government of Spain was ruled unconstitutional by the Spanish Constitutional Court, in a 6-5 ruling on Wednesday.
The ruling, which came in response to a suit brought by the right-wing Vox Party, found that the lockdown's "limitations on movement" had violated the fundamental liberties of Spanish citizens. Therefore, the court said, the "state of alarm" order issued by Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez was insufficient and not protected by Spain's national constitution.
###
8- Worldwide citizens are trying to push back on mandatory vaccinations.
In Athens, thousands rally against COVID-19 vaccination
QUOTE: More than 5,000 anti-vaccine protesters, some them waving Greek flags and wooden crosses, rallied in Athens on Wednesday to oppose Greece's coronavirus vaccinations programme.
Shouting "take your vaccines and get out of here!" and calling on Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis to resign, the protesters gathered outside parliament under heavy police presence.
This also happened in France.
###

9- This is an excellent piece about the current struggle in Cuba for freedom. It offers a clear cut way the United States can and should help.
Liberate Cuba - U.S. now has a chance to finish what it started in 1961

QUOTE: Shortly after historic protests swept the island of Cuba on Sunday, the Biden administration expressed its "support" for the Cuban people to "peacefully protest and determine their own future," but also "call[ed] upon the Cuban regime to hear their people and serve their needs at this vital moment...."
While the intent may have been to offer solidarity, this statement is inadequate because it is not conducive to what this national uprising is trying to achieve.

QUOTE: The mass demonstrations occurring now are a historical moment. It would be a terrible mistake to turn away from the Cuban people in their greatest moment of courage.
The Cuban people have the right to liberate themselves by whatever means are necessary, and the U.S. should stand behind them—even if that means authorizing a military intervention—or at least providing weapons to the Cuban people to defend themselves.
Such support would send a message that America does not abandon anyone and finally allow the U.S. to answer its own moral conscience for failing the Cuban people in the past.
###

10- Last but certainly not least, there is good news on the audits.
Georgia Sec. of State calls for firing of Fulton County elections director and registration chief. Brad Raffensperger made the call in a tweet on Thursday.
QUOTE: "Fulton County's continued failures have gone on long enough with no accountability. Rick Barron and Ralph Jones, Fulton's registration chief, must be fired and removed from Fulton's elections leadership immediately," Raffensperger tweeted. "Fulton's voters and the people of Georgia deserve better."

Once again and always, thank you for signing up for and reading this newsletter.
Thank you for the continued support you've given us by sharing this with your own people network.
Thank you for your encouraging words and feedback.

Hold Fast,
Sidney & Team Kraken

P.S.: Cubans are not marching for more vaccines, as the Fake News is pushing. They are marching for FREEDOM. Keep these people in your prayers.

Damn right they don’t want Cubans to take to the seas. There are roughly 2 million escaped Cubans living in the USA. And they voted for Trump. And they know the can smell socialism and will not vote Democrat.

And yet we just this month hit the 1,000,000 mark at the southern border for 2021. More Democrat voters.

another "patriot's" view of patriotism:

A Trump supporter said rioters were "just there to overthrow the government," a new book by Wall Street Journal reporter Michael Bender says.

Saundra Kiczenski, a 56-year-old from Michigan, told Bender she was "confident" that former President Donald Trump won the 2020 election, according to the book "Frankly, We Did Win This Election," published earlier this week.

"If someone put a gun to my head and said: 'Did Donald Trump win, yes or no? And if you're wrong, we're going to shoot your head off!' I would say 'yes,'" Kiczenski told Bender, according to an excerpt of the book that was published by The Washington Post. "I'm that confident that this stuff is not made up."

In the book, Bender detailed former President Donald Trump's effort to overturn the election after becoming the first incumbent in decades to fail to win reelection.

"We weren't there to steal things," Kiczenski, who entered the Capitol on January 6, said, according to the book excerpt. "We weren't there to do damage. We were just there to overthrow the government."

But when Trump took to Twitter to urge his supporters to go home, Kiczenski said she felt sad and confused, Bender wrote.

"We were supposed to be fighting until the end," she said.

So I was thinking; Cubans are unhappy under Communist Rule, Democrats hate the U.S., think we might have a solution here, how about a Trade Deal? ctgoldwing could spearhead up the Deal/Exodus, I am sure land is cheap there...If he needs help he can ask the advise of the Texas Democrats who fled from their jobs.

Just a thought, a dream, a hope... :cool:

I do wonder if the Cubans would "welcome" them though.

This should be fully exposed and transparent. They , the people we pay to manage much of what affects our lives, should have to disclose every detailed element of this: All records they are keeping and all actions that they have taken, including their mission statement on this, and all who are involved, who is contacting who on both sides of this,

These media organizations have no oversight. They could be owned by Russian or Chinese entities for all we know.

This is grounds for impeachment of an entire administration if there ever was one.
