"In the basement of Madrid’s Reina Sofia museum, a giant robotic machine painstakingly scans a painting by Catalan surrealist artist Joan Miro, slowly snapping hundreds of microscopic shots. The pictures taken by the machine, which uses infrared and ultraviolet photography, will help experts determine the condition of the 1974 oil on canvas painting in unprecedented detail. The device lets restorers see cracks, scratches and creases as well underlying preparatory sketches and all subsequent touch-ups that would be otherwise undetectable. The robot can work unsupervised round-the-clock and can be controlled by a computer from a remote location." Continue reading →
On Tuesday, June 25, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down section 4 of the Voter Rights Act of 1965. This new ruling rightly restores the responsibility for protecting the right to vote on several states that were previously required to have federal oversight of their election laws. This ruling is a victory for state sovereignty, but with sovereignty comes responsibility. Which begs the question, is Texas ready and willing to accept that responsibility? Every ten … Continue reading →
One insidious practice which sugar-coats the dose of Federal intrusion is the division of expense for public improvements or services between state and national treasuries…. The average American, believing in our dual-sovereignty system, must feel that the policy of national-doles to the states is bad and may become disastrous. We may go on yet for …
“A troubled and afflicted mankind looks to us, pleading for us to keep our rendezvous with destiny; that we will uphold the principles of self-reliance, self-discipline, morality, and, above all, responsible liberty for every individual that we will become that shining city on a hill.” ― Ronald Reagan “The future doesn’t belong to the faint …
"You probably haven’t heard of HD Moore, but up to a few weeks ago every Internet device in the world, perhaps including some in your own home, was contacted roughly three times a day by a stack of computers that sit overheating his spare room. In February last year he decided to carry out a personal census of every device on the Internet as a hobby. '[It] drew quite a lot of complaints, hate mail, and calls from law enforcement,' he says. But the data collected has revealed some serious security problems, and exposed some vulnerable business and industrial systems of a kind used to control everything from traffic lights to power infrastructure."
"Grassroots activism is the heart of the Republican PArty and I can think of no one more committed to grassroots activism than Amanda. She has been in the trenches fighting the good fight alongside so many wonderful grassroots activists across our great State. Whe has proven that she is worthy of our respect, and she is committed to excellence, integrity, and accountability - qualities that our Party desparately needs at this critical time. I am inspired by and have every confidence in Amanda Teegarden"
I consider Amanda Teegarden to be one of the most respectable grassroots activists and leaders in Oklahoma. Her diligence in bringing to light matters of legislative importance to citizens through her work with OK-SAFE and her online radio show, America in the Balance, have been a great boon to Oklahomans. But she goes beyond that and dedicates her spare time to helping principled candidates get elected and teaches young people and newcomers to the party about the legislative process. She personally visits lawmakers to advocate for issues of individual liberty, free enterprise, and constitutional governance. I wholeheartedly endorse Amanda Teegarden for the office of Oklahoma GOP State Chair and I hope you will join me in casting your vote for Amanda at the state convention on April 20th.

My name is David Conrad, chairman of Precinct 402 in Tulsa County. Amanda Teegarden made an important distinction to me years ago when she elucidated the importance of the policies of principled government rather than the weather vane of politicking. Amanda's actions prove her to be honest, rational, vigilant, reliable and strong. That is what makes a good leader. That is why she will be our next State GOP Chair. Amanda is a champion of liberty and sound policy in Oklahoma and deserves my endorsement. more info on Amanda Teegarden for OKGOP state chair
