But wait, there’s more!

The laying of the wreath at the Arlington Cemetery also appears to show the event was a production done merely for optics. During this ceremony with previous presidents, the US Military used a standard order of procedure. But the wreath laying ceremony for Biden was not in accordance with tradition.

The “military members” had no medals or stripes.

Former city councilman removed from Planning & Zoning Commission without notice

Jack Leavenworth has served as a city councilman, a member of the City of Howe’s Comprehensive Plan committee, and a board member of the Howe Development Foundation. Leavenworth Properties invested approximately half a million dollars into down-

town Howe. He most recently served on Howe’s Planning & Zoning Commission, but was removed from the P&Z after he, in the October 18, 2022 meeting, opposed a zone change request that would allow a high-density planned development. According

to Leavenworth, the city did not notify him that he was removed and he came to realize it last week when he didn’t receive a packet prior to the P&Z meeting.

In the December meeting, Mayor Bill French (Continued on page 2)

No other individual in the history of Howe, Texas has served as City of Howe Councilman, City of Howe mayor, and Howe ISD Board of Trustees member. Dwain Roberts held all of those positions beginning in 1972 when he was elected to city council with the most ever votes recorded at that time. The following year, Roberts stepped in as mayor to finish the term of Ray Dwain Roberts Houston who had stepped down.

Leavenworth (Continued from page 1)

nominated his neighbor Madison Snapp to replace Leavenworth’s seat.

A month later, Larry Duncan was appointed to the P&Z board. During that meeting, City Administrator Jeff Stanley told the city council that because several members had not shown up to meetings, Larry Duncan had been asked to join the P&Z. “Me and him has talked and he’s willing to participate,” said Stanley. “Both him and the mayor and I have known him for several years, but I’ve known him for probably as long as anybody around here. Our kids went to school together and we did band together and he’s a super great guy—likes this town and wants to see nothing but good for this town.”

In the October P&Z meeting, Leavenworth made a motion to deny the Ponderosa Point development just north of Howe High School. Leavenworth stated the reason he didn’t support the development was because it didn’t include space for a school site and it didn’t match the city’s Comprehensive Plan established in 2010.

Stanley told Leavenworth that he had discussed the development with Howe ISD Superintendent Kevin Wilson and that there were other plans for school sites down the road.

“On a subdivision this small, we wouldn’t ask for something like that,” said Stanley.

“I don’t think 3,000 people is small,” said Leavenworth. “The acreage is small, but it’s high-density. The need for schools should be by people, not the acreage.”

P&Z meetings and council meetings generally do not draw members of the community, but this particular October meeting did draw a standing-roomonly crowd. One of those was Crystal Lawson who lives in the Howe ISD school boundary who stated that the schools were already overcrowded and the development would impact the ISD. Beyond the schools, her second stated objection was her concern for nearby roads that would be impacted by the

“That’s a major site with a lot of accidents,” said Lawson.

After listening to comments from the audience and the development group, Leavenworth made the motion to deny the necessary zone change for the planned development. With only three P&Z members present, the motion died without a second.

During the following city council meeting, members of the audience were concerned about what the influx of population would do to the schools in which Mayor Bill French told the citizens that they needed to attend Howe ISD Board of Trustees meetings for their concerns with the school.

Councilwoman Sarah Myrick was the lone dissenting vote in the rezoning for the planned development. Since then, French’s mayor seat is being challenged by Karla McDonald who formally announced her candidacy in January, and by Cort Myrick (Councilwoman Myrick’s husband).

Leavenworth, 85, said he was not surprised by the removal. He said the city’s comprehensive plan is being ignored as well as the citizens.

“I’m not so much upset that I’m not on P&Z as I am that they aren’t following the 2010 Comprehensive Plan that was put in place,” said Leavenworth.

The Howe Enterprise reached out for comment from Howe City Administrator Jeff Stanley, but received no response.

Roberts (Continued from page 1)

Texas, he went back to work for B&B Body Shop making $60 per week.

Now with two kids, he went to the owner and said he needed $100 per week in order to stay, which was denied. After being denied $100 per week at the Cadillac dealership in Sherman, he then went to work in Van Alstyne where his uncle Albert Gentry owned a garage.

“He let me have one of the rooms back there and I started paint and body work there,” said Roberts who stayed there six months before moving his operation to a still standing metal building across from Remcor on S. Denny Street in 1965. Dwain’s Paint & Body eventually moved to 108 S. Hughes Street between Haning and O’Connell Streets. He then purchased land in 1977 on Highway 75 and constructed the building that now is Star Auto Body. He continued that operation on Highway 75 until turning the business over to his sons in 1985.

Since then, he’s been in the used car business in Luella and Denison.

But while operating his business on Hughes Street in Howe, he became acquainted with the people at the bank and the people at the city. Working next to Price Hanning’s Garage and learning about the inner local workings of the city, he became interested in running for city council in which he first did in 1971. He lost that first race with 106 votes which was 15 behind Jimmy Don McMillion. But the following year received a city-record 208 votes and won a seat along with Carrie Waller, and Ralph Muse.

Ray Houston won the mayor race in 1973 but couldn’t finish his term. Roberts was selected to fill the term until the next election could be held. Roberts then was elected mayor to fill the expired term in 1974. He was elected again in 1975 with 183 votes over his business neighbor Hanning who had nine write-in votes. Roberts then defeated Bobby Starnes, 127-41 for re-

election in 1977. He retained his seat until moving to Tate Circle outside the city limits where Stan Francis then filled his seat.

“I had done all of my trading with local businesses and had all of their support. I did business with Mack (G.T. McDonough) and Mr. Chisum (Chisum’s One Stop). They weren’t going to vote for anyone else,” said Roberts.

But he quickly learned that being in local politics can cost you local business. Citizens had filled up the council meeting and Roberts had one of his friends and best customers stop trading with him after a feisty meeting.

“After six months he came in and said, ‘I don’t really remember what happened but I need to get this car fixed. I knew I was mad at you, but I don’t remember why.’”, Roberts laughed.

During Roberts’ time as mayor, he's most proud accomplishment was establishing the water well on FM 902 just west of Highway 75 which became such a powerful well that they were able to sell water to Sherman from it.

Howe also obtained their first trash truck on his watch and changed locations for the trash to be dumped. The current City Hall building was also obtained during his time.

Howe only had a nightwatchman when Roberts became mayor. While in office, the Howe Police Department was established.

Roberts (Continued from page 3)

“Let me tell you, that’s a headache,” said Roberts as he told the story of windows being broken around town. The police chief reported to Roberts that he had just about figured out who the perpetrator was that was doing the damage. As it turned out, the police chief, himself, was the one breaking the windows as he was showing the city their need for his services.

“Naturally, I fired him but we didn’t file charges on him,” said Roberts.

“Then we had another police chief that stopped a car between Howe and Van Alstyne and jerked his gun out and dropped it and it went off. So I called him in and I said, ’you are not smart enough to be a policeman.’ Then he went to Pottsboro and became the chief of police over there and I couldn’t drive through Pottsboro.”

Roberts said he had another officer that got in a car chase with someone who had thrown something through the window of Hugh’s TV on the service road.

“We had police come in from other towns and he went out in the country somewhere and got out of his car and shot out his own windshield and claimed, ‘shots fired’ and ‘I’m after him.’ So...I had to fire him.” said Roberts. "He admitted he was trying to impress his girlfriend."

Roberts fired another officer who had been “messing around with the young ladies” at night.

“I saw him coming towards us and I thought he was going to come and beat me up for firing him but he came out there and said, ‘I like being a policeman and I’ll be a policeman without pay.’ I said, I can’t do it. I can’t have a guy in the police department messing around with young ladies. I think that’s the last one I had to fire,” Roberts, while shaking his head.

Later when his sons had taken over the body shop business on Highway 75, they were in the shop working on their own cars when one of the officers came in and pulled a gun on one of his sons thinking they were breaking in.

“That’s when he told our sons ‘no matter what they say, no matter what they do, in a small town you just say ‘yes sir’ and go with it,” said Dwain’s wife Linda Roberts.

Dwain Roberts said there were councilmen that didn’t want to go along with what he thought needed to be done and they could out vote him. But he said, overall, he really enjoyed his time as mayor of Howe.

Upon moving out of the city, he had to resign as mayor but it didn’t take him long to get involved again as he was voted in as school board member for the 1979-1980 school year. He stayed (Continued on page 5)

on the board through the 1987 school year.

He said his time on the board was rewarding, but remembered one time the board was going to vote on spending money that he didn’t agree with. One of his fellow board members came to his house and asked him to stay home instead of voting no.

“I said, no. I’m going to be there and I’m going to vote against it,” said Roberts. “But I never had any problems. I always played things straight.”

Roberts, who has taught Sunday School classes for 60 years, has served on numerous church boards. Harvest Time Assembly of God put him in charge of the money and ushers.

He has two sons, Billy and Greg, from a previous marriage. They graduated from Princeton and Leonard High Schools, respectively. He married Linda in 1968 and they have two kids, Steven and Julie, both honor graduates of Howe High School. Steven has been a pastor in Florida and has taken his ministry into building up churches.

Julie has been a teacher in Van Alstyne up until last year. She’s now the owner/operator at IV Solutions in Sherman.

a great grandfather now and he and Linda are enjoying retirement with the family. Linda cooks on each third Sunday of the month. Lots of times grandkids will bring their friends over for the meal and sometimes 20-30 people show up. At a recent gathering, Dwain Roberts let all the visitors pick out a Bible that he’s studied and written in for them to take with them.

It wasn’t a flashy politician, but a bluecollared body man with integrity who wanted to serve his community. He stepped up to the plate and served in as many ways possible. Dwain Roberts is the embodiment of what makes small towns the heartbeat of America.

Just as fellow inductees of the 2023 Class of the Howe Hall of Honor, Jack Norman, Alton Norman, and S.W. Young each carried that same spirit of a servant’s heart. They each will be inducted May 5, 2023 at 6:30 pm at Summit Gardens in Howe at 100 E. O’Connell Street. Between those three individuals present, there could be one amazing Sunday School lesson.

Bulldogs drop three games during the week

The Howe Bulldogs (5-8) had somewhat of a disappointing week. They opened with a 12-1 loss to Collinsville at home on Tuesday and followed up on Thursday with a 3-1 loss to Lone Grove. Howe then blew a 3-run lead to Bristow late in the game and lost, 10 -8.

Hosting Collinsville, senior Matt Hayes got the start on the mound and threw two scoreless innings to begin the game. However, Collinsville put up a 4-spot in the third and Howe could not overcome the deficit.

The Bulldogs took the early lead in the first inning when Carson Daniels doubled home Austin Haley, who tripled moments before him. But unfortunately, that would be all the scoring for the afternoon for the Dogs. Hayes lasted 4.1 innings and allowed nine earned runs on 10 hits. He struck out six and didn’t walk a batter. Hunter Hance came on in relief and pitched 1.2 innings, allowing one earned run on four hits allowed. He walked two and struck out one.

Howe had only three hits outside of the Haley and Daniels combo in the first inning. Ryan Hough, Garrett Gibbs, and Cooper Jones (double) had the other hits for Howe.

Against Lone Grove, Howe again only had five hits in the game. Gibbs had the only extra base hit with a double.

Hayes scored Howe’s lone run in the

second inning after hitting a single. He scored on a Zeb Montgomery grounder to the second baseman.

Daniels had a good performance on the hill as he pitched all six innings, allowing two earned runs on seven hits. He walked four and struck out three. Bulldog hits came from Hough, Haley, Hayes, Gibbs, and Kolin Murphy.

Howe entered the bottom of the sixth inning with a 6-3 lead over Bristow on Friday, but a 7-run inning did the Bulldogs in. Bristow opened the inning with four consecutive hits before recording an out.

Howe had multi-hit games from Garren Lankford, Haley, and Daniels. Haley and Hough each had doubles for Howe’s only extra base hits.

Haley started on the mound and pitched four innings, allowing one earned run on five hits. He walked one and struck out six. Landon Throm came in and pitched an inning, allowing one earned run, but walked four hitters. Gibbs pitched the final two innings, giving up six earned runs on five hits. He walked two.

Howe is scheduled to travel to Pottsboro Tuesday evening at 7 pm and then will host Pottsboro Friday at home as the district season will kickoff this week.

Lady Bulldogs lose to Pottsboro, Bonham to open district play

The Howe Lady Bulldogs (8-11, 0-2) got off to a slow start in district play last week with two losses. Howe opened district with a 3-0 loss to Pottsboro and a 15-0 loss to Bonham.

The Lady Bulldogs were deadlocked in a 0-0 tie heading into the top of the fourth inning at Pottsboro. But a Lady Cardinal sacrifice bunt plated their first run. An inning later, Pottsboro scored two more runs on a fielder’s choice and a sacrifice fly.

Howe freshman Riley McCollum pitched all seven innings, allowing three earned runs on three hits. She walked two and struck out nine. The Lady Dogs only had two baserunners throughout the game as Ryliegh Craven reached on an error and Jocee McCullar led off the top of the fourth

inning with a single.

On Friday, Howe’s bats continued to stay cold as they could only muster one single by Riley McCollum and one walk drawn by Craven.

McCollum started in the circle and went two innings, allowing no earned runs on six hits while walking two and striking out two. Howe allowed 14 unearned runs as the Lady Bulldogs committed five errors during the contest. Kamry Snapp came on in relief and pitched two-thirds of an inning, allowing one earned run while walking three hitters. Craven finished the game in the circle and allowed a hit before the game ended.

Howe is scheduled to host Blue Ridge on Friday at 4 pm and travel to Gunter on Saturday, March 18 at 11 am.

Howe ISD now has buses with Wi-Fi The Howe Independent School District’s IT Department announced last week that all regularly utilized Howe ISD buses are now equipped with WiFi. As part of the Bulldog Connect instructional technology initiative, students will be able to use their school issued device while on the bus to and from school, field trips, extracurricular activities, and more. There is no password or setup required; their school issued iPad will automatically connect to a secure and filtered internet connection.

This project was funded entirely

through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Emergency Connectivity Fund, a program designed to help schools and libraries implement internet connectivity in rural communities. The Howe ISD IT Department submitted the funding application last spring, received notification of acceptance in January and finalized the installation last week.

The ISD looks forward to seeing how students can benefit from the new extension of the Bulldog Connect program.

A younger probably gets tired of hearing about his big brother’s success. Especially if his big brother is Howe’s all-time leading passer and All-Texomaland in multiple sports.

But Talan Haley is doing things that big brother Austin has never done.

He’s coming off winning Howe’s Golf MVP a year ago and is now finishing in the top 10 regularly at each

golf tournament Howe enters. He finished tied for seventh last week by shooting an 84 in Pottsboro. This comes after shooting an 80 in Anna and finishing runner-up. He also finished seventh a week ago in Lindsay.

Howe, as a team, finished sixth overall with a score of 403.

City of Howe SECONDS COUNT IN AN EMERGENCY! That's why the City of Howe has instituted the CodeRED Emergency Notification System - an ultra high-speed telephone communication service for emergency notifications. This system allows us to telephone all or targeted areas in case of an emergency situation that requires immediate action (such as a boil-water notice, missing child or evacuation notices). The system is capable of dialing 60,000 phone numbers per hour. It then delivers a pre-recorded message describing the situations to a live person or an answering machine in the affected area possibly including instructions requiring action on the part of the recipient.

Once the situation is remedied, another call will be placed to the area signaling that the issue has been addressed and that normal activities can be resumed.

The following information is required to add a telephone number into the "CodeRED" database: first and last name; address (physical address, no P.O. boxes); city; state; Zip Code; and primary phone number. The system works with cellular phones but requires a valid street address. When entering information, please fill out all of the screens because the newest data entered will replace the old data.

Only two options: The broad or the narrow way Those who identify with following Jesus are usually satisfied with being comfortable and cozy in their religious styles. Let’s just say that sufferDr. Billy Holland ing for God is not on their bucket list.

When we take a peek at the last six thousand years, we learn that countless numbers of people who loved the Lord literally gave their lives for Him. It’s only within our modern secluded religious environment that we assume persecutions and deaths no longer happen. By no means of the imagination is this true. According to Open Doors World Watch List, in 2022 many Christians were imprisoned and killed for their faith, and countless churches were attacked and closed.

Last year, 360 million Christians, or 1 in 7 believers around the world, experienced horrific persecution for their faith. With over 6,000 martyrs in 2022, this means an average of 16 believers were murdered every day just for following Jesus. When we accept Christ into our lives, many are focused on Him being a Savior instead of Him being their Lord, as the latter involves not only living for Him but possibly dying for Him. In the New Testament, Jesus talks about temptations and decisions, but basically, the main two choices are good and evil. In Matthew 7:13-14, Jesus describes what we all face every day, “Enter in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many will choose this: “Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto life, and few there be that find it.” It’s true, there are only two choices, God’s way, and our way. The narrow path is good but difficult because it involves surrendering our will to God. What does this mean? It means we no longer serve our desires because we have made a covenant promise to obey God and only do what He says. Obedience is what the Christian life is about and His grace invites us to live in the awareness of His presence. The wide highway is evil, but it’s so easy as the great major-

ity will gladly give all control to their flesh and allow their carnality to lead them. The masses ignore their conscience and resist anything that has to do with listening to God or the Bible.

But wait, there are grave consequences attached to this philosophy of living, remember? This popular road is more than a blasphemous rock song, it’s a torturous eternal destination far removed from the hope of a second chance.

There’s not a lot being said nowadays about an everlasting punishment for those who do not love and serve God. The modern ideas about religion argue that this sounds too extreme, and it’s just too negative to think about.

Hmmm…but aren’t these the same people who watch paranormal programs and personal testimonies about demons and hell for hours and believe it? When divine truth is rejected it’s a sure sign of Holy Spirit conviction and the rebellious will always avoid feeling guilty for living in sin. Our old depraved nature loves to do whatever feels good and is very defiant against anyone including God that tries to interfere. Yes, the Christian life is difficult and filled with sacrifices and accountability, but wouldn’t a lifetime of obedience to God here on earth be worth an eternity of living with Him in heaven? Being a follower of Yahweh requires a concerted effort on our part as well as an infinite supply of His mercy.

We realize this analogy about the two paths causes some to question the fairness of God. I often hear if He really wants to save everyone, why doesn’t He just let everyone go to heaven? You knew someone was going to say that, didn’t you? When people hear the word narrow, they tend to associate it with a predestined selection as it sounds as though God has rated us all on some scale of acceptability and only allows a few favorites to experience His glory. However, a few verses earlier, Jesus clarifies this within the context, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.” God made it clear: the path to eternal life is open and available to all who want to follow Him.

Texas History Minute (Continued from last week) In 1836, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, the president and general Ken Bridges who dominated the political scene in Mexico, rose into Texas with his army, with destruction on his mind. He was determined to put down the uprising of the Texas colonists. He had spent months campaigning across Mexico to put down other rebellions, stepping down from the presidency to do it.

Nevertheless, he was at the height of his power in Mexico; and for his opponents, including Texas, he was at the height of his cruelty.

When he reached San Antonio, he found he found the small outpost on the edge of the town defiantly standing their ground. The Alamo was once part of a Spanish mission complex. Determined to eradicate any opposition, Santa Anna settled in for a siege on February 23. The Texans put up a furious resistance though they were outnumbered perhaps as much as 10:1.

Santa Anna watched his own casualties increase. Col. William B. Travis sent word out, asking for reinforcements, but none were coming. On March 6, he ordered a final assault, signaling to the Texans there would be no quarter. More than 180 Texans died defending the Alamo, but Santa Anna had three times as many casualties.

Three weeks later, Santa Anna repeated his depredations. More than 400 Texas troops, led by Col. James Fannin, had surrendered at Goliad. On March 27, Santa Anna ordered their execution. Each man was to die for defying him. The general had overseen these tactics since he was a young officer; but even in the years before the Geneva Convention and the fair treatment of prisoners, the Goliad Massa-

cre was still condemned an atrocity.

Texas forces led by Gen. Sam Houston were preparing for Santa Anna’s march eastward. But Santa Anna’s arrogance would be his downfall. At the Battle of San Jacinto, near modernday Houston, on April 27, he allowed his troops to rest for the afternoon while Houston gathered his forces. In a surprise assault, Houston overpowered the Mexican army, forcing their surrender. Santa Anna, however, had escaped. Instead of standing with his men, he turned and ran. A Texas patrol found him some time later, disguised as a private. After his captured troops in their stockade gave him away under cries of “Presidente,” the Texans realized who they had captured.

Santa Anna was brought before Houston, still in the private’s uniform and totally humiliated. He agreed to recognize Texas independence and order the withdrawal of all Mexican troops in Texas. Mexico refused to recognize the treaty, and Santa Anna was sent to the United States.

After he was allowed to return in 1837, he found himself powerless. When France attempted to invade Mexico in 1838, the new government allowed him to take command of an army unit.

Called the “Pastry War” after debts owed to French citizens, Santa Anna fought several battles with the French.

During one fight, he was shot in the hand and the leg. The leg was amputated, and Santa Anna ordered it be buried with full military honors. In spite of a peace treaty that forced Mexico to pay off the French, Santa Anna was now seen as a hero again. Afterward, he led a coup against the government, leading Mexico again for four months before stepping down once again. Santa Anna was at the center of Mexico’s political chaos in this period, and he still looked to another attack on Texas as revenge for his humiliation during the Texas Revolution.

Living with children “What have I done to cause my 18-month-old son to reject me?” asks a new dad. Whenever he tries to hold his son, feed, John Rosemond dress, or change him, the child puts up great resistance and screams hysterically for his mother.

Actually, Dad is describing behavior that is not at all unusual for this age child. It has its roots in the fact that with rare exception, the parent who has been at the child’s beck-and-call until now has been the mother. During infancy and early toddlerhood, even the most well-intentioned father is considerably less involved with his child than is his wife.

A nurse friend of mine tells me that people who are hospitalized for relatively long periods of time do not like it when a new nurse takes over their care. Some even put up resistance when the new nurse attempts to do something for them and demand to know why the previous nurse is no longer available.

Likewise, this child has become accustomed to his mother’s care. She is a known quantity in his life; his father is not. Under the circumstances, when his father attempts to do something for him, it upsets his sense of security.

When confronted with a new caregiver, a hospital patient may become demanding, perhaps even sullen. Under the same circumstances, a toddler falls apart. Toddlers are not known for restraint, after all.

Add to this the fact that a toddler who

has been properly cared for has every reason to think he controls his mother.

It has not escaped his notice that every time he makes a loud noise, she appears within seconds and seems to want nothing more than to please him.

Under the circumstances, the child in question might feel that Dad’s attempts to become involved mean he is losing control over his mother. Anyone who thinks that toddlers are not capable of such sophisticated thinking should keep in mind that young children think things they cannot articulate, and their thoughts are highly intelligent. In fact, the first three years of life are the years of optimal learning.

I know of no instant cure for this problem. I only know that it is unwise to lead a child of any age to believe that he can control his parents. The right course is for both parents to, in the words of the late Buck Owens, “act naturally.” If Mom is better positioned to do something for the child, Mom should do it. If Dad is better positioned, then Dad should do it, and he should do it with loving, good-humored determination. If Dad starts something, he should finish it, no matter how hysterical the child becomes. This does not qualify as “trauma.” It is a bump in the road, but to a toddler, all bumps are apocalyptic.

The Patriot Pony 3 more red states ditch voter data-sharing collective Short Outline of as Trump rips 'fools game for Republicans' the Blueprint by "AllRepublicanGovernors should immediately pulloutof ERIC, the terribleVoterRegistration Derek Johnson Systemthat 'pumpstherolls'forDemocratsanddoes nothingtocleanthemup," theformer presidentwroteonhisTruthSocial platform. hard-core leftist."

By Natalia Mittelstadt Three more red states — Florida, Missouri, and West Virginia — this week followed Louisiana and Alabama in withdrawing from a multistate datasharing partnership that facilitates voter registration and maintenance of voter rolls, citing unmet concerns over protecting voter information and partisan influence at the nonprofit.

The latest withdrawals from the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) came after the nonprofit's board of directors rejected changes proposed by a bipartisan working group of several member states.

The rejected proposals included increasing protections for confidential voter information and limiting the power of partisan ex-officio ERIC board members, according to press releases from the departing states.

ERIC bills itself as a data-rich resource participating states can use in updating voter rolls.

"Each member state receives reports," explains ERIC's Frequently Asked Questions page, "that show voters who have moved within their state, voters who have moved out of state, voters who have died, duplicate registrations in the same state, and individuals who are potentially eligible to vote but are not yet registered.

"States may request a report identifying voters who appear to have voted twice within the state in the prior federal election, voted in more than one state in the prior federal election, or who voted on behalf of a deceased voter in the prior federal election."

The three states' withdrawals will take effect on June 3, with Alabama set to exit on Apr. 28. Following the departures, membership in the partnership will fall to 28 states and Washington, D.C., according to ERIC's website.

ERIC's founder and nonvoting board member is David Becker, who also founded the Center for Election Innovation & Research (CEIR). That organization, which received nearly $70 million from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg's Chan Zuckerberg Initiative in 2020, claims, "The 2020 general election was the most secure in American history."

A former trial attorney in the Voting Section of the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division, Becker has been described by former colleagues as "a

Florida Secretary of State Cord Byrd said in a statement Monday: "As Secretary of State, I have an obligation to protect the personal information of Florida's citizens, which the ERIC agreement requires us to share. Florida has tried to back reforms to increase protections, but these protections were refused. Therefore, we have lost confidence in ERIC." Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft said on Monday: "Voter confidence is compromised when individuals vote in more than one state and nothing is done. It appears that ERIC will not make the necessary changes to address these concerns, therefore, it is time to move on."

In a letter to ERIC Executive Director Shane Hamlin, Ashcroft explained that the reasons for Missouri's exit include: ERIC's refusal "to require member states to participate in addressing multi -state voter fraud"; focus "on adding names to voter rolls by requiring a solicitation to individuals who already had an opportunity to register to vote and made the conscious decision to not be registered"; unnecessary restriction on "how Missouri utilizes data reports"; and the limited benefits Missouri derives from the partnership with only three of its bordering states as members.

West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner said Monday: "There is no defensible justification to allow any opportunity for partisanship in voter registration and list maintenance, much less in the administration of our nation's elections. It truly is a shame that an organization founded on the principle of nonpartisanship would allow the opportunity for partisanship to stray the organization from the equally important principle of upholding the public's confidence."

Warner announced that West Virginia will supplement its "state listmaintenance data sources that ERIC had facilitated" by using the U.S. Postal Service to identify voters who move out of state and the Social Security Administration Master Death File and DMV abandoned voter registrations to identify deceased voters.

Conservative election law nonprofit Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) is currently seeking to obtain ERIC voter list maintenance reports via lawsuits in Louisiana, Colorado, the District of Columbia, and Alaska.

"ERIC is currently the only system that allows states to find out who is registered to vote in multiple states," PILF President J. Christian Adams

said in a statement. "States do not have any other available systems to use right now. Information leading to the arrest of double cross state voters is essential for voter list maintenance.

ERIC's wall of secrecy is causing a lack of trust and erosion of confidence.

ERIC must become transparent, or it will continue to lose member states."

Former President Donald Trump urged red states to abandon ERIC in a Truth Social post on Monday.

"All Republican Governors should immediately pull out of ERIC," he wrote, "the terrible Voter Registration System that 'pumps the rolls' for Democrats and does nothing to clean them up. It is a fools game for Republicans….And while these Governors are at it, GO TO SAME DAY VOTING, ALL PAPER BALLOTS, AND VOTER I.D. (VOTER IDENTIFICATION). Mail-In Voting ONLY for FAR AWAY MILITARY and those that are VERY SICK! PROBLEMS ON ELECTION'S [sic] SOLVED!" ERIC has not responded to a request for comment.

"We are a member-run, memberdriven organization," Hamlin wrote in a March 2 open letter on ERIC's website. "State election officials — our members — govern ERIC and fund our day-to-day operations through payment of annual dues, which they set for themselves."

Hamlin stressed the security of voter data maintained by ERIC, while acknowledging it is accessible as needed to ERIC employees, who work remotely to limit the organization's operating costs.

"ERIC is never connected to any state's voter registration system," he wrote. "Members retain complete control over their voter rolls and they use the reports we provide in ways that comply with federal and state laws."

Law of War Manual is the Department of Defense War Manual. It was signed June 12, 2015. It's a combination of Military and Federal Lawyers who took the Lieber Code of 1863, Geneva Conventions, Hague Conventions, Nuremberg Trials, the Law of War Manuals from the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, and Australia, and all the strengths of those to strengthen the Uniform Code of Military Justice which is Military Law. DJT 2016 Candidacy Announcement.

What are the odds of riding down escalator 4 days after the Law of War Manual was signed?

Military Justice Act of 2016 was the Supreme Court clarifying Military Laws and Courts are SEPARATE from Civil Laws and Courts. It clarifies Military personnel are DIFFERENT from Civil.

Federal Continuity Directive 1: Signed January 17, 2017... THREE days before DJT took office. Look in the appendix... it talks about DEVOLUTION and RECONSTITUTION. DJT didn't sign or pass this.

Federal Continuity Directive 2: the IMPLEMENTATION of COG and so much more.

Now apply the timelines: Law of War Manual, June 12, 2015, updated December 2016.

Donald John Trump rolls down escalator June 16, 2015, to announce candidacy 2016.

Military Justice Act of 2016; the Supreme Court clarifying Military Laws and Courts are SEPARATE from Civil Laws and Courts. Military personnel are DIFFERENT from Civil.

The Patriot Pony Laws and Orders (Continued from page 19)

is a Department of? #TheFlyBoys

Executive Order 13818, Human Rights Abuse, 2017, with National Emergency

There's multiple documented pictures on the Flight App of Coast Guard on Navy Bases and Naval Helicopters on Coast Guard Stations = Coast Guard is a Department of Homelands Security during Peacetime, they operate under the Navy during times of War.

Abraham Accords 2017.

Steps in front of Queen 2017.

Walks into North Korea 2017.

Crowned King of Saudi Arabia 2017.

Declares Jerusalem Capital of Israel 2017.

The Marines are a Department of the Navy. That makes ALL Military Branches operating under Military Operation, Continuation of Government, none of which recognize "Biden" as CIC.

Executive Order 13848, National Emergency, 2 months before any Election from 2017 to 2021. Two years before the Presidential Election of 2020. Meaning the only evidence of Fraud was 2016 and prior.

In every single National Guard article, "Biden" has not been mentioned. Only the Secretary of Defense and/or the Commanders of the Brigade, Battalion or Unit.

Federal Continuity Directive 1, January 17, 2017.

Executive Order 13848, specifically says, no evidence of a foreign power altering the outcome or voter tabulation in ANY United States Election.

Executive Order 13848 = Domestic = Washington Establishment = Deep State = Cabal = the Swamp.

From 2017 to March 2020, DJT declared 9 National Emergencies, 7 in Executive Orders, all were unaddressed by Congress = Military Operation = COG = destroying Federal Corporation.

Space Force was established December 20, 2019.

Executive Order 13912, March 27, 2020, was DJT Federalizing the National Guard and Reserves to ActiveDuty because of those unaddressed National Emergencies.

"Biden" has extended every single Executive Order with National Emergencies and the 13912 that Federalized the National Guard and Reserves to Active-Duty.

Every Executive Order had expiration dates. Why did he extend policies that do not align with his?

EO 13912 didn't set to expire until March 2022. Why did he extend it in 2021? LOL Extending it in 2022 now makes the NG and Reserves on Active -Duty to March 2024.

The Space Force has never been uttered from "Biden's" mouth. The Space Force articles have never mentioned Joe Biden.

The Army transferred ALL communications to the Space Force in August 2022 for ONE Command. Who's that commander if Joe has never been mentioned by the Space Force? Who established the SF as an independent Military Branch in 2019? #45 The Air Force did not give "Biden" the traditional ride into D.C. on January 20, 2021. Guess who the Space Force

"Biden" campaigned that he was going to shut down Gitmo (Guantanamo Bay). Why has he not revoked Executive Order 13823, which is DJT's EO that revoked Obama's EO to shut it down? If he was President, he would have the same powers and authority as every other President.

November 15, 2022, speech by DJT full of Comms and Codes: The Pause. "We're going what I call the pause."

Pause = Public Alert; Unregistered Soliciting Entities: LINK "I gave Angela Merkel white flag of surrender." = Law of War Manual Chapter 12.4. If he's civilian and former President... when did she take the Nord Stream 2 deal? July 2021 = gave her White Flag of Surrender = July 2021.

"Nancy Pelosi has been fired; she's on her way to another country right now." = Gitmo = Military Tribunals.

"If Governors don't want our help, we will insist." = Martial Law = National Guard.

"We are going to eliminate MS-13 gangs, street crimes by 75-85%" = Martial Law = National Guard.

"I asked President Xi what they do for Drug Problems?" = We don't have problems. We have Quick Trial = Trial in the morning, Execution by end of day = Military Tribunal.

"We are going to seek execution for Drug Traffickers." = Quick Trial = Military Tribunals.

Continuity of Government, DJT is the Commander in Chief and the face of the Military Operation, he was too a COG, but he's the good side of the COG. It will ALL be revealed.

The Blueprint and Timestamps prove Military Operation from the start.

All one has to do is take the order of those, read, and apply.

"We have it all."

"We've caught them all."

"All crimes and evidence of will be displayed to the public in full accordance to the law."

Trump teams with Jan. 6 prisoners to release charity single 'Justice forAll’ Thereleaseofthesong“JusticeforAll”wasdesignedtoraisemoneyfor familiesandcallattentiontothequestionofequaljustice,organizerssay. ber of last year. "I mean full pardons with an apology to many."

By Ben Whedon Former President Donald Trump joined with imprisoned Jan. 6 defendants on Thursday night to release a charity single entitled "Justice for All," designed to raise money for some of the defendants' families and call attention to concerns about equal application of the law.

The officially released track debuted as a digital single and a vintage vinyl record on several streaming services.

Both Trump and a group of incarcerated demonstrators, dubbed the J6 Prison Choir, contribute vocals to the track. The prisoners recorded their contributions through a jailhouse phone.

The tracks consists of the Jan. 6 prisoners singing the "Star Spangled Banner" while Trump recites the Pledge of Allegiance.

Record executive LJ Fino, who helped on the project, said he expected the release to be greeted with cheers and jeers.

"I am, of course, a huge supporter of The First Amendment and expect that many consumers will love it and many will hate it."

"Pretty soon we're going to put our beautiful Flag on the surface of Mars." = Military Auxiliary Radio System = Emergency Communications = Emergency Broadcast System.

The former president has previously said he may pardon some of the Jan. 6 defendants should he return to the White House and lamented their treatment at the hands of the Department of Justice.

"I didn't need this. I had a very nice life. You didn't need this, but we love our country, don't we?" = proving

"It's a disgrace what they've done to them. What they've done to these people is disgraceful," he said in Septem-

Real America's Voice TV network anchor Ed Henry and former Trump advisor Kash Patel also contributed to the project.

Patel, for his part, highlighted the Department of Justice's handling of Jan. 6 prosecutions and expressed hope that the single would help raise awareness about their plight.

"As a former federal public defender, its shocking how the two-tier system of justice has hijacked constitutional due process and replaced it with, due process for only those we agree with politically," he said. ”As a former national security prosecutor, its tragic this DOJ has abandoned the law and failed to disclose all evidence against so many of those overcharged and needlessly detained since Jan 6."

"This DOJ has failed to act lawfully, so we will call them out and put our money on the line for the freedoms and due process of the J6 families. That's what #J6PC is all about," he continued.

"Americans have been stripped of their rights, denied bail, and treated worse than terrorists. This is no longer justice, but gulag for political punishment."

"If they have the voice to sing our national anthem every night from the D.C. gulag, then we must be a voice for them, our freedoms, and their families," he asserted.
