🧵Abolitionist Senator @DustyDeevers has taken aim at the idols of Oklahoma and filed all 9 of his bills for the 2024 session. This thread will detail all 9.

His first bill was SB1729, the Abolition of Abortion Act.

Full thread on that bill:👇(1/12)
The second is SB1825, a bill that to establish that the penalty for a willful false accusation is whatever the penalty is for the crime you falsely accused someone of is. Right now, the penalty is a misdemeanor. (See Deu 19:16-19.)

Full bill:👇(2/12) webserver1.lsb.state.ok.us/cf_pdf/2023-24…

The third is SB1958, a repeal of no-fault divorce which establishes abandonment, adultery, extreme cruelty, and fraudulent contract as the only legal justifications for divorce.

Full thread:👇 (3/12)
SB1976 is a bill to abolish pornography in Oklahoma. The language is still being worked on, but the bill is filed. Dusty will likely file a committee substitute with updated language. (4/12)
SB2000 is a bill requiring voters to sign an oath under penalty of perjury before voting that their listed physical address is correct. The language is still being worked on but is mostly in place.

Current bill language:👇 (5/12)

SB2005 requires judges to prioritize restitution from the criminal to the victim rather than other forms of punishment, to the extent feasible.

The ninth bill has not yet been given a bill number or posted on the State website, but it will shortly. It is the Grocery Tax Relief Rebate Act which would eliminate the grocery tax for those under the federal poverty level. (9/12) Image
Follow @DustyDeevers if, for some reason, you haven't already. Dusty is in the process of setting a nationwide standard for Christian politicians. He's going to take arrows from the bad guys and he'll need the people to have his back. (10/12)
He can't abolish abortion, pornography, no-fault divorce, and the income tax without our help! Be ready to make calls and emails to Senators and Representatives when the time comes. Stay tuned to his social media and to ours for instructions on when to call and email. (11/12)
Lastly, amplify everything this man does. Make sure the world knows who Dusty Deevers is and what he's doing. We need to build Dusty's statewide and national profile so that he can more impactfully drive these important conversations and pass legislation. (12/12) Image

How to poison a movement: compromise. 🧵

There is nothing more poisonous than compromise when it comes to achieving the goals of a movement. Here are 6 ways compromise works to destroy your efforts.
1. Compromise shows inconsistency.

Back when I (Sam) was in the pro-life movement, I watched a GOP legislator argue for a heartbeat bill against pro-abortion lobbyists. They blasted holes in every argument because there was nothing grounding them. He was arguing for an arbitrary
standard and it was obvious. There is nothing value giving about a heartbeat. He was combating functionalism with functionalism. Why was his arbitrary standard better than theirs? If they say brainwaves and he says heartbeat, why should mere opinion be forced in law?

The truth about Dobbs 🧵

1/

Much ink (or pixels) has been spilled (typed) discussing and dissecting Dobbs. The vast majority of the discourse has been either glowing praise of Dobbs or pro-abortion condemnation. But was Dobbs objectively good? Image
2/

To answer that question, we need to define what role the supreme court plays.

Article III of the Constitution says, "The judicial power shall extend to all cases, in law and equity, arising under this Constitution"

They cannot just make things up. Their decisions must be constitutional or in line with federal law. They do not make law, they interpret law.Image
3/

In the Dobbs decision, the 14th amendment was heavily discussed because it was supposedly where a right to abortion was granted under "liberty." The court held that no such right was granted.

Justice Alito in the majority opinion wrote, "It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives."Image

Prophets vs false prophets 🧵

In scripture, we have the example of prophets and false prophets. A prophet did not exclusively tell the future. Much of what they did was warn rebellious people about their sins, both those they tolerated and those they committed. Image
For this, prophets were despised and killed and false prophets were their favored replacements because their news was good.

"They say to the seers, ‘See no more visions!’ and to the prophets, ‘Give us no more visions of what is right! Tell us pleasant things, prophesy illusions’"Image
The prophets prophesied destruction to both pagan nations and God's covenant people alike for their rebellion.

The outcomes often resulted in the nation continuing its path to destruction. In the case of Jonah, the pagan nation of Ninevah did repent. Image

🧵While NC and KY Baptists recently affirmed abolition resolutions, Louisiana Baptists rejected it. Get a load of these OUTRAGEOUS, anti-abolition testimonies against @BrianGunter1689's motion to bring the abolition resolution to the floor. First up, @fieldthigpen. (1/17)
This pastor and Resolutions Committee member says "We would have no set of parameters in the legal system" to deal with co-conspirators. Where on earth do they get this stuff? Every state has laws dealing with co-conspirators to crimes. (2/17)
He argues, "there is a concern that women who had miscarriages would be falsely accused." What is this? A NARAL convention? Is there any other group, @fieldthigpen, that you think should be stripped of protection because of possible false accusations? Or just the preborn? (3/17)

🧵In yesterday's speech, Speaker Mike Johnson spoke about God's sovereignty. God is also sovereign over timing. In His timing, well-produced content that's been in the works for months will be released soon about what Johnson did to keep abortion legal in LA last year. (1/7) Image
For those who've been following popular narratives around Johnson, this news may surprise you. You may have seen that he was a lawyer for Alliance Defending Freedom, a leading pro-life legal group, and that he has an A+ rating from Susan B Anthony List. (2/7) Image
The reality is the more connected to the pro-life leaders somebody is, the more they often militate against the abolition of abortion. Johnson pulled out every stop he could to keep abortion legal in Louisiana last year when there was a bill to abolish it. (3/7)

🧵Yesterday, Live Action awarded Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt as the "Life Awardee" of the year for "outlawing abortion in the state of Oklahoma." Let's talk about what @GovStitt has done and then about what this says about @LiveAction. (1/12)

If mothers are immune from penalties, they are free to induce their own abortion. Stitt said it's "just preposterous" that a woman would be prosecuted for murdering her child. Stitt opposes our abolition bill and supports self-managed abortion. (2/12) koco.com/article/gov-ke…
Stitt recently endorsed JJ Francais for OK SD32. Francais wrote in 2020 that he was a proud Democrat who supports some abortion. (He also supported mask mandates, Obamacare, and a host of other leftist policies, but those are beside the point of this thread.) (3/12) Image
