On Jan 6th, Sen James Lankford (R-OK) had agreed to challenge states during the counting of electoral votes. This essentially means, he was on team sedition; until he wasn’t. He was literally speaking when the Senate floor was evacuated. Wait until you see where this one goes🧵👇🏻

Lankford must not have seen any tourists on Jan 6 because when the mob left, and the certification resumed, Lankford changed his mind and decided it wasn’t in his best interests to challenge the states any longer. Or perhaps he thought it not in the best interest of the country.

Either way, Lankford’s non-actions that day all but guaranteed he would be primaried for his Senate seat. Here is a quote from Gen Michael Flynn:“We need to have strong warriors who are consistent in their beliefs and their values, who are willing to take the hard or right path."

Here is an article in which the quote resides and also a video of Flynn saying it.👇🏻. ktul.com/news/local/fly…

If you didn’t watch the video, that’s ok. Flynn said these words on March 16th during a press conference for a man named Pastor Jackson Lahmeyer (pictured👆🏻) who on March 9th, announced he was running for Senate in OK to take Lankford’s seat.

Let the record reflect, Lahmeyer is dutifully wearing the traditional trump uniform of blue suit, red tie, and white shirt. Mike Flynn was there to endorse Lahmeyer’s candidacy against Sen Lankford.

Mike Flynn took 7 days to vet and determine Lahmeyer was the best candidate for the job? A pastor with an investment company serving as an umbrella for his lawn service and junk removal company is the best candidate for OK senate? He violated FEC rules too normantranscript.com/news/fec-lahme…

On April 16th, 2021, days after endorsing Pastor Lahmeyer, Flynn spoke at Rhema Bible College during Clay Clark’s ‘Health and Freedom conference’ in Broken Arrow OK. You all know what came out of that weekend by now and if not, here is a photo to give you the picture so to speak.

During Flynn’s speech at the event, he mentioned a man named John Bennett. He said, Bennett was just a guy sitting on his couch a year ago and wanted to get involved in the community so on April 10th, he became the chair of the Oklahoma Republican Party.

Bennett wasn’t just a guy on a couch though. He is a former state rep for OK. And who did the new top GOP man endorse for Senate in OK? Not incumbent Sen James Lankford, but Mike Flynn’s candidate, Jackson Lahmeyer.

And wouldn’t you know it, Jackson Lahmeyer also spoke at that Health and Freedom conference with Mike Flynn on April 16th? He says Flynn endorsed him because ‘he recognized a fighter, and I’m gonna fight like a Flynn’. Really though?

Here is that speech.

His speech is full of defending the Christian way of life. He talks about Columbus and our founding🤷🏼‍♂️. He says he was embarrassed on January 6th. Not because of the Insurrection mind you, but of Sen Lankford’s ‘cowardice’ in ‘stabbing [trump] in the back.’ His words not mine.

Lahmeyer also says ‘the 2020 election was a stolen election.’ He didn’t just say this at the health and freedom conference with Flynn, he said it to Christina Bobb…on OAN…when he was in Arizona…at the audit.

Jackson Lahmeyer, US Senate Candidate in Oklahoma says on OAN that ‘77 of Oklahoma’s 77 counties supported president trump.’ He then says ‘we believe that was a stolen election.’ Then he says ‘I believe that was a stolen election.’

I’m sorry, first off, who is ‘we’? And if all 77 counties supported trump, and if the election was stolen, is the Republican Senate candidate implying the Democrats ‘stole’ the election…for trump?🤔🤷🏼‍♂️ No, it’s just that 74% of Oklahomans, don’t seem to trust other states.

Lahmeyer also says ‘we need [audits] in Georgia, Pennsylvania (📌1), Michigan.’ The fact he says this on OAN is also telling. The fact he says it to Christina Bobb from OAN is super telling considering she funded the audit in Arizona and was in the Willard with Rudy Giuliani 1/6

Lahmeyer says the leaders in the Tulsa County GOP (pictured below 🤷🏼‍♂️ No Bob Jack?) urged him to run for state senate, but he shifted to Lankford. Lahmeyer’s also a pastor who provides ‘religious exemptions to vaccine.’ Did this catch the eye of Gen Flynn?

The eagle eyed among you may have spotted in a photo above that one of Lahmeyer’s credentials was OK State coordinator for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. The CEO of the BGEA is Franklin Graham who appears on that whiteboard behind Flynn, Wood and Lindell. ⭕️ below👇🏻

Here is the part where we take a breath and review and add some context to the proceedings, folks. Mike Flynn, who just said America should only have one religion, endorsed a pastor who is embarrassed that Sen Lankford, a baptist pastor himself, wouldn’t overthrow the government.

Jesus, how religious does one have to be in Oklahoma? It’s almost as if the faith must be putin trump. Something, something false idols, IDK. Let’s leave there for now, shall we, and head East where we encounter 📌1. Remember Lahmeyer saying Pennsylvania needed an audit too?

In Pennsylvania, a candidate for Senate named @EverettStern1 has come forward and said that ‘operativesk on behalf of Gen Mike Flynn engaged him to participate in a scheme that would provide dirt on Sen Pat Toomey and Rep Brian Fitzpatrick to ‘move’ them toward audits.

Audits?🤔

Remember, Lahmeyer was calling for audits In Oklahoma too where trump won 77 of 77 counties. So why would he need to be calling for an audit? I have the same question about the PA Senate candidate. Why was he allegedly tasked by Flynn to ‘move’ Toomey & Fitzpatrick to audits?

In exchange for what exactly, Flynn’s endorsement of @EverettStern1 in PA Senate race? A chance for Stern to be on the reawaken tour with Flynn and Lahmeyer? Stern also tells us in his press conference above, there were plans to recruit others in VA and also in: say it with me…

At some point, these dots paint a picture that Georges Seurat would be proud of. And if you don’t know who that is, then maybe Flynn’s newest idea of abolishing the Department of Education isn’t such a good one.

As of now though, these are just dots. The picture must come into focus. For that, we need the reporters to dig. Who convinced pastor Lahmeyer to run. Who is it serving?

No sooner had I thought I was done with Oklahoma when I saw this…a stitch to the thread above🪡👇🏻

Dr. Col. Lance Frye was named Oklahoma’s Health Commissioner in March 2020. Just in time for the pandemic. Oklahoma lost about 1.6% of its population to covid. They had 10,879 deaths and at their peak in December 2020 they had 4,000 people die. kjrh.com/news/local-new…

In Oct2021, Frye resigned. It was Gov Stitt in OK who appointed Dr Frye. Gov Stitt’s chief of staff is a guy named Bond Payne. Why am I telling you these things? Could Flynn have needed the Col for some reason? Perhaps Stitt? Payne? Why on path to trump board? Health? Freedom?👇🏻

And just above Dr. Frye, why is the former Oklahoma Secy of Commerce, and Regent Bank CEO Sean Kouplen on Mike Flynn’s board? Is he on the Health or the Freedom side? The funding side? At some point, someone is going to have to ask why the names are on this monstrosity.

Oklahoma, you OK?
