Former Speaker Boehner's Ally Plans to Spend $1 Million to Defeat an Elected Combat Veteran For Congress
By Capt Joseph R. John, on May 4, 2016
Please read the below listed article where former House Speaker Boehner is having his ally spend one million dollars to defeat a principled Conservative Republican endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress, Congressman James Bridenstine, Lcdr-USNR (R-OK-1), who has consistently taken courageous stands, very difficult principled stands, that few Republicans have had the courage to take, because his stands were in opposition to former Speaker Boehner’s support for Obama’s below listed Un-constitutional initiatives that were in violations of US Federal Laws.
The race in the 1st Congressional District of Oklahoma, it is about a lot more than Cong James Bridenstine. It’s about deterring any potential principled conservative citizen legislator from doing the right thing, and continuing the pale-pastel scam driven by Washington special interest, K Street, the Washington ruling class, and Boehner’s Republican Party leadership, they betrayed the American voters who gave the Republican leadership the largest majority in Congress since the 1920s.
The American voters were hoping the Republican leadership would do the right thing; use the power of the purse to defund Obamacare, close the wide open southern border, stop the massive influx of Middle East Muslim Refugees who were not being vetted by the FBI to determine if they had terrorist ties, and use of the power of the purse to oppose billions of dollars for illegal immigrents. Instead they did very little, and Boehner supported every one of Obama unlawful programs listed below.
“Boehner, and the K Street-types cannot afford even one more term of a man who listens to the people of Tulsa instead of the special Washington interests. Boehner has recruited Tom Atkinson, a wealthy owner of an oil company, to run against Cong Bridenstine and has publicly promised to spend up to a $1 million in this very cheap media market. Atkinson has no support from the people but he is already up on radio and TV with plasticated ads ahead of the June 28 primary. He has not made a single public appearance, not held a single press conference or engaged in electioneering, yet he is already up on the air. Atkinson hasn’t shown up to the district convention or any other party event. His strategy is to hide behind his money and hope nobody finds out his true identity.” (Daniel Horwitz, Conservative Review, 4/28/16)
For 7 years, Boehner “funded” every one of Obama’s Unconstitutional and Illegal Immigration Policies in violation of US Federal Immigration Laws (while Cong Bridenstine, an endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress, opposed him).
For 7 years, Boehner funded the resettlement of 915,000 Muslim Refugees from the Middle East and Africa throughout the US without them being vetted by the FBI to determine if they had terrorist ties, and allowed their resettlement in stealth without telling federal law enforcement authorities where they we being settled (while Cong Bridenstine, an endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress opposed him).
Boehner passed the International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement as a Congressional Bill for Obama, because if it had been submitted as an International Treaty requiring a 2/3rd vote of the US Senate it never would have passed (while Cong Bridenstine, an endorsed Combat Veterans For Congress opposed him).
For 7 years, Boehner frustrated every attempt by Conservative Republicans to build a wall across the wide-open southern border, because the American Chamber of Commerce opposed building such a wall, so they could have the “cheap” Mexican Illegal Alien labor to enter illegally (while Cong Bridenstine, an endorsed Combat Veterans For Congress opposed him).
Boehner coordinated the receipt of $200 million in donations to Congressmen to vote for the passage of Obama’s Unconstitutional TPP/TPA that eliminates US Sovereignty in Favor of International Tribunals and brings in millions of illegal aliens from 12 Pacific Rim Nations who will take the jobs of millions of US Citizens (while Cong Bridenstine, an endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress opposed him).
For 7 years, Boehner didn’t use the power of the purse to defund federal aid to cities, resulting in the creation of 300 Sanctuary Cities that violate US Federal Immigration Laws (while Cong Bridenstine, an endorsed Combat Veterans for Congress opposed him).
For 7 years, Boehner passed every one of Obama’s “out of control” reckless spending budgets that drove the national debt up to $19 trillion, while allowing Obama to hollow out the US Armed Forces (while Cong Bridenstine, an endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress opposed him).
Boehner’s allies targeted Republican conservative like Cong Bridenstine for upholding their promise to block one of the most pernicious and unconstitutional policies in recent years. American Action Network, which is rapidly pro-amnesty and supports expanding H-1B visas at the cost of American workers jobs that Michelle Malkin exposed earlier this year.
So now Boehner is turning his vitriol on that principled endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress, Congressman James Bridenstine, Lcdr-USNR (R-OK-1) who has consistently taken courageous stands in opposition to former Speaker Boehner’s support for Obama’s Un-constitutional initiatives in violation of US Federal Laws.

BOEHNER ALLY PLANS TO SPEND $1 MILLION TO TORPEDO CONSERVATIVE REP. BRIDENSTINE
By: Daniel Horowitz | April 28, 2016
Earlier today, John Boehner revealed what’s on his mind and the minds of the entire Chamber of Commerce/K Street/Fox News axis who are committed to the cause of #NeverCruz. They will target anyone who adheres to the Republican platform and upholds their campaigns promise to those who elected them. The same players who detest Ted Cruz have now recruited a straw man RINO to run against Rep. Jim Bridenstine (R-OK), one of the most intrepid conservatives in the House of Representatives.
Jim Bridenstine is running for his third and final term to represent Oklahoma’s First Congressional District, as he has pledged to serve no longer than six years. But the Boehner, K Street-types cannot afford even one more term of a man who listens to the people of Tulsa instead of the special interests. Tom Atkinson, a wealthy owner of an oil company, has been recruited to run against Jim and has publicly promised to spend up to $1 million in this very cheap media market.
Just to illustrate the contrast between grassroots primary challenges that begin with a groundswell but not much money, Atkinson has no support from the people but is already up on radio and TV with plasticated ads ahead of the June 28 primary. He has not made a single public appearance, held a single press conference or engaged in electioneering, yet he is already up on the air. Atkinson hasn’t shown up to the district convention or any other party event. His strategy is to hide behind his money and hope nobody finds out his true identity.
Well, who is Tom Atkinson? He is the quintessential wealthy trans-ideological Republican. He donated to a liberal Democrat, Kathy Taylor, who ran against the Republican mayor of Tulsa. That Republican mayor, Dewey Bartlett, is Tom Atkinson’s own brother-in-law! Atkinson has tapped Shane Saunders, a former aid to John Sullivan, the RINO Bridenstine defeated in 2012 who was known to be close with Boehner as well.
On Atkinson’s campaign website and in his ads, he sells himself as a conservative and not a politician. But how could a conservative donate to a prominent Democrat who funded Emily’s List and held fundraisers for Joe Biden? More importantly, how can a conservative “non-politician” challenge the only member of the state’s delegation who is indeed a conservative and not a politician? Atkinson feigns outrage over illegal immigration on his website, but he is challenging the one man in the delegation who stood up to Obama’s amnesty, the very impetus for Boehner’s recruitment against him!
Let’s examine the Liberty Scores® of each member from the Oklahoma delegation:
Jim Bridenstine (CD-1) – 96%
Markwayne Mullin (CD-2)- 59%**
Frank Lucas (CD-3) – 39%
Tom Cole (CD-4) – 40%
Steve Russell (CD-5)– 50%
Does anything stand out here?
Clearly, Tom Atkinson, his rich local friends who are best buddies with John Boehner, and his K Street backers in D.C. want the first district to be like the rest of the delegation, not vice-versa. They don’t want a citizen legislator in CD-1; they want a career politician in the mold of those serving in the other districts so that the Tulsa representative doesn’t embarrass the K Street/Paul Ryan bootlickers in the rest of the state. Tom Atkinson is merely the drive-by conduit for them to strip Oklahoma of any conservative representation. Tom Atkinson would fit in perfectly with the politically bisexual Washington Cartel.
In March 2015, the American Action Network, a RINO group closely aligned with Boehner and K Street, spent hundreds of thousands on ads targeting Bridenstine and other House conservatives who opposed funding amnesty. You heard that right. Boehner’s allies were targeting Republicans for upholding their promise to block one of the most pernicious and unconstitutional policies in recent years. American Action Network, which is rapidly pro-amnesty and supports expanding H-1B visas at the cost of American workers as CR's Michelle Malkin exposed earlier this year, had previously run ads in support of the Gang of Eight. Now they are promoting jailbreak.
At the time, there was so much backlash in Bridenstine’s district against the K Street amnesty PAC that they were forced to pull the ads.
It’s not hard to see that similar groups, if not AAN itself, are behind the random filing of this drive-by candidacy. Activists on the ground told me they received calls from D.C. push-polling against Bridenstine in March, but they were clearly not from Atkinson because the pollster was testing other potential opponents. Boehner’s allies were gunning for Jim for a while, but now they have their man.
This race is about a lot more than Jim Bridenstine. It’s about deterring any potential citizen legislator from doing the right thing and continuing the pale-pastel scam that is the modern Republican Party.
**Mullin has already drawn a challenger. Jarrin Jackson, a combat veteran, is a very strong candidate and I’ll be focusing on this race in the coming days.
