Celebrating Another Success Story

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.

So said Margaret Mead.  Never doubt that the Constitution Party of New Hampshire is living up to this standard.

Inaugural Year of the Constitution Party of New Hampshire

Celebrating Another Success Story (Here’s how to do it)
cpofnh.com

Written By: Megan Schmitt, State Secretary

On the evening of March 1st, 2023, during a regularly scheduled Constitution party informational Zoom call, the question was raised… how serious are we?

By the end of the call, New Hampshire officially had its five State Officers. Though not necessary, we set a goal to be organized in time for the 2023 Spring National Committee Meeting, which was just seven weeks later. We met as often as possible to discuss different aspects, made trips to the bank for signatures, had discussions with local officials, etc. After many revisions (and a 13 hour in-person working session), our biggest hurdle (bylaws) was completed.

We even celebrated our second vice-chair, Edmond Laplante, being elected to his local school board!

 

April 16th at the historic 1838 Hope in Christ Church in Chichester, we held our first State Conference. This meeting included introductions, a rundown of the ground-up organization, a speech from the Eastern States Regional Chairman, Dave Kopacz, membership sign ups and voting. The Bylaws were accepted, and three National Committee members were elected. The following week, the bank account was finalized, and we were officially off to St. Louis!

 

 

 

After returning to New Hampshire, we got to work creating newsletters and trying to get our name out there. We walked in a few parades, set up a table at the Sean Feucht Kingdom to the Capitol concert, started attending John Birch Society events to network, and took as many constitutional classes as we could – some officers even became trained coaches! We also invited Caleb Collier from WA for a quick overnight speaking engagement.

 

 

As we entered fall/winter, we began focusing more on our committees – participated in a Constitution Day event, began hosting county meetings and preparedness potlucks, even planned a January 6th convoy and screening of J6: A True Timeline.

As we close out our first year, a few new members have joined, created a how-to guide for tracking legislation and how to submit testimony online as well as in-person, we met with the Secretary of State and discussed ballot access, working on constitutional awards for our state representatives, and brainstorming new advertising methods!

 

Our second annual state conference will take place in March.  We are so excited to continue this journey with the Constitution Party and see what 2024 will hold!

Let Them Eat Bugs

“LET THEM EAT BUGS”

Dear Friends of the Constitution Party,

The link/article below was brought to my attention by Missouri State Representative Holly Jones, founding member of the Freedom Caucus.  Rep. Jones was a guest speaker at the Spring 2023 National Committee Meeting featuring keynote speaker, Dr. Robert Malone. While this farm is not in her District, she did admit that if it were, she’d be in their face every day!

Are bugs listed on our food labels?

Is there a cricket farm near you?

This is not just talk, It’s reality.

https://www.stltoday.com/news/local/business/fenton-startup-welcomes-its-first-crop-of-crickets/article_32db8226-30ce-11ee-994f-33e418a89b6e.html

WILDWOOD — A Fenton-based startup that is pioneering the use of crickets as a protein source is trying to cultivate its own crop of chirpers in Wildwood.

The Mighty Cricket, founded in 2018, was awarded a grant this month from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to collect food waste from local restaurants and grocery stores on which to raise the six-legged crew and fine-tune their flavor.

The inclusion of insects as a dietary choice — aside from the 2 pounds of bug bits people consume unwittingly each year — is still rare in the United States. But as attention turns to sustainability and health, palates are broadening.

Vegan burgers are on the menu at fast-food chains. Two companies producing lab-grown meats earned Food and Drug Administration approval in June. The U.S. market for protein alternatives surged 60% between 2019 and 2021, according to Nielsen data, though that stemmed mostly from products made of beans and legumes.

Bugs-as-nourishment can be a difficult concept for Americans to swallow, even as options are multiplying.

“It’s not just grasshoppers on pizzas,” said Jeff Tomberlin, an entomologist who teaches at Texas A&M University. “You don’t ever see the insect.”

In many parts of the world, mealworms, beetles and ants are not a novelty but a staple. About 2 billion people — mostly in Africa, Asia and Latin America — regularly put insects on their plates. The market is expected to reach $9.6 billion worldwide by 2030.

“The U.S. is behind the curve,” Tomberlin said. “The Western world is catching up to the rest of the world.”

Two years ago, he co-founded the Center for Environmental Sustainability Through Insect Farming with two other universities to study how to advance insect production for animal and human consumption.

Bugs aren’t burdened with the same environmental baggage as the big three meats: beef, pork and chicken. Livestock emits methane, a gas that contributes to atmospheric warming, and takes up more than two-thirds of the globe’s agricultural land.

“I think if people knew where their food came from, it would be very enlightening,” Tomberlin said.

Crickets, while saddled with an unsavory reputation, are a model of efficiency. Their space requirements are almost as small as they are. They don’t need much food or water. And they grow quickly: The population turns over in six to eight weeks.

When the nocturnal jumpers reach their final day, they get popped into the freezer where they slide into a state of hibernation called torpor, just like they would during the cool nights of late autumn. After 24 hours, they die.

“It’s really lovely,” said Sarah Schlafly, the owner of Mighty Cricket.

The crickets are then blanched, roasted and milled. The powder is blended in Mighty Cricket’s Fenton warehouse into bags of oatmeal — apple cinnamon, dark chocolate and coconut cream — or protein supplements in plain, vanilla and chocolate.

For five years, outside suppliers have provided the Mighty Cricket’s eponymous ingredient. But they weren’t always reliable. Some went out of business. And the taste could be inconsistent — sometimes mild, sometimes earthy.

The only way to get exactly what she wanted, Schlafly thought, was to farm her own team of tiny omnivores and tinker with their diets until she landed on the right menu. She applied for a $131,500 Small Business Innovation Research Grant in October and found out in May that she got it. It allowed her to bring on another full-time employee, purchase equipment and rent space for research and development at the Helix Center, a biotech incubator in Creve Coeur.

Schlafly knows precisely what she is chasing: a batch she sampled a couple years ago that has never been equaled.

“They were amazing tasting,” she said. “Exactly like pistachios.”

With some reverse engineering, she’s trying to replicate the inputs that will elicit the same nutty quality.

A cricket farm is not a complicated operation. Schlafly is starting with 10 plastic bins inside her garage. Her initial herd — or to be precise, orchestra — will number about a thousand. The inch-long scavengers will snack out of little dishes and drink from the same automatic chicken waterers used in coops.

The variable is what they will eat. Schlafly has contacted local grocers and restaurants, such as Whole Foods and Companion bakery, to rescue their discards: carrot tops and wilted greens, stale bread and potato peels. Then she will experiment until the crickets embody her sought-after flavor.

Once she can standardize the feed, she hopes to scale up, first for the Mighty Cricket line and then selling to owners of exotic animals, pet food companies and zoos. That will likely be years down the road, Schlafly said, and will require another infusion of money.

Despite the slow process, if small businesses like Schlafly’s “remain engaged and persistent,” said Texas A&M’s Tomberlin, insects will enjoy a status boost.

No longer just basement pests, he said, but vitamin B12 providers. Mineral powerhouses. Environmental superheroes.

Mighty crickets.

Historic Constitutional Crisis!

25 States Back Texas as they Stand up Against the Fed’s Border Invasion

Excerpts from General Michael Flynn and Alex Jones

From General Flynn’s Newsletter:  “Texas is Entitled to Use Military Force to Repel the Border Invasion”:  CLICK HERE TO SEE FULL NEWSLETTER

“Within hours of Biden being sworn into office, he signed a Proclamation that ordered an end to construction of President Trump’s southern border wall. His stated reason was that the wall was “a waste of money that diverts attention from genuine threats to our homeland security.” This statement was so absurd that we knew at once that this man, who had somehow assumed the Presidency, was not on our side. Biden had just sworn the President’s constitutionally prescribed oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” and within hours he flung open the nation’s borders to all comers.”

***************

History is happening now.  Twenty-Six states, including Texas, (shown in above map) have now combined forces against the tyrant, Joe Biden, and the globalists in their attempt to end our border and end American sovereignty and the announcement that Biden wants to seize the State Guard not so they can stop an invasion but so they will NOT stop an invasion.  Some Democrats are even expected to join this effort.

It’s in the Constitution; the right to self-defense.  Massive human smuggling and sex trafficking is illustrating the treason that is going on and the needed ongoing impeachment proceedings against Alejandro Mayorkas, the head of DHS.

This is what it’s all about.  The states coming together, the people coming together, not to dissolve the Republic, it’s the UN-run globalist government that is doing that, but to reconstitute our Republic.

It’s in the Declaration of Independence.  It’s in the Constitution.  It’s in the Bill of Rights.  It’s not just our “Right”.  It is our “Duty” to defend ourselves. The Constitution Party Platform is predicated on these principles! 

We salute all the states that have joined Texas.  Governor Abbott has made the right move and has forced this crisis out into the open against the globalists.  These 25 states are lined up together repudiating the puppet, Joe Biden.  It’s beautiful. It’s powerful. It’s strong.

Will this alone save the border?  No.  But this act of creating a constitutional focal point or a spotlight to point out the constitutional crisis that is already happening is nothing but positive.

This is a real answer to prayer.


Here is a paragraph from the Plank on IMMIGRATION in the Constitution Party Platform:

We affirm the integrity of the international borders of the United States and the Constitutional authority and duty of the federal government to guard and to protect those borders, including the regulation of the numbers and of the qualifications of immigrants into the country.


Another reason why we must support the Constitution Party’s campaign to gain ballot access and run constitutional patriots for office.

22 states were represented in total, while 17 of our affiliated states were represented at the National Committee Meeting on Friday.

Attending these twice yearly conferences is such a fantastic way to get personally acquainted with the many leaders all over the country.  We can help one another grow our state parties, compare notes and build face-to-face relationships with many new friends.

I have personally received a ton of positive feedback from many people.  Thank you all for making the effort and the sacrifice to attend!  Your support of the National Committee is greatly appreciated.

Hope you enjoy some photos of this AWESOME event.

Final Convention Schedule-3

Central Bank Digital Currency Resolution

WHEREAS, the, Executive Order on Ensuring Responsible Development of Digital Assets, #14067, signed by Joe Biden on March 9, 2022, lays the groundwork for the introduction of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC);

WHEREAS, The Uniform Law Commission, on its website, shows a map of twenty states where measures like this are being proposed and on which the progress is being tracked, revealing that one way this is being implemented is by State Legislatures;

WHEREAS, the implementation of a CBDC violates the principles of private property rights, by making it easier to freeze the financial assets of the People and create government controls over how personal financial resources are spent;

WHEREAS, there is clearly no role, responsibility, or power within the Constitution for the United States formally delegating the authority to the federal government to change the species of money from metal coin to paper let alone to a digital currency;

WHEREAS, Article I, Section 10 of the Constitution, states,

“No State shall… make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts.”

WHEREAS, every elected or appointed officeholder under the authority of the United States is required to take an oath to serve in office:

“The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution…
– Article IV, Clause 3

WHEREAS, Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment placed teeth into the Constitution on any and all public servants both federal as well as local and State, who would now be ineligible to hold office for life if they fail to support the Constitution or directly violated it, in essence committing an insurrection against the Constitution.  Section 3 asserts:

“No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or Elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State Legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”

Be it therefore RESOLVED, that the Constitution Party calls on the Legislatures of the Several States to reject the implementation of a Central Bank Digital Currency.

Be it further RESOLVED, that the Constitution Party calls on Citizens throughout the United States and among the several States to hold their elected representatives accountable to the Constitution and initiate steps to apply Section 3 of the 14th Amendment – and/or similar provisions of their respective State Constitutions – to remove from office, any public servant, making said public servant ineligible for any further public service for life, who has supported by legislative or administrative act, the implementation of a Central Bank Digital Currency.

Adopted by the Constitution National Committee on April 22, 2023

America the Beautiful

Written by: Woody Kaye, Loudoun Liberty, Consent of the Governed

Happy Independence Day to Constitution Party Lovers of Liberty,

Knowing you’re busy with BBQ’s and outdoor activities, this Newsletter will be relatively short celebrating America’s greatness and call for all to preserve what America the Beautiful refers to as our ‘lavished precious life’.

Thomas Sowell is one of the great thinkers America has ever produced. I wanted to share his ideas not just because of his clear, noble thinking but also because his legacy will be his willingness to stand for truth regardless of the consequences. His career within academia was hurt because he refused to cowtow to the intelligentsia. We need more Thomas Sowell’s.

One of his pearls: intellect is not wisdom. More of his pithy, memorable insights  HERE

As I grow in a greater knowledge of the Constitution, it becomes more and more apparent that this document is the inexhaustible bedrock of our freedom. Analogous to faith in God’s only begotten Son as the only entryway to the narrow gate leading to salvation, our Constitution is the only constitution of it’s kind in history guaranteeing us a Republican form of government, which is in sharp contrast to a democracy. In a democratic form of government, CA, IL and NY would rule us. Learning has become a bit of an exercise in getting comfortable being uncomfortable.

Tony Robbins has a short on how to resist the temptation to run the other way when things feel uncomfortable. HERE

I want to encourage you to push through the resistance. I can assure you that our political adversaries are counting on us to cave to the desire to watch the ballgame, surf the internet, or play parcheesi.

Have a great Independence Day Celebration!

Enjoy your families.  God bless you all and God bless America.

*********************************

Daniel Webster:

” Hold on, my friends, to the constitution, and to the republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster, and what has happened once in 6000 years, may not happen again. Hold onto the constitution, for if the American constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world. “

 

Thomas Jefferson:

” I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society, but the people themselves: and if we think them, not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their indiscretion by education.”
