Constitutional Amendments Election Results |
| |
All 8 proposed constitutional amendments passed on the November 2, 2021 election. The amendments and the results are shown below: |
| |
Special Election, House District 118 |
| |
Texas State House District 118 (Bexar County) has been a bit of a revolving door the last 5 years.
John Lujan (R-San Antonio) won the Special Election held on November 2, 2021, defeating Democrat challenger Frank Ramirez.
Final results:
Lujan - 5,924 (51.24%)
Ramirez - 5,638 (48.76%)
Lujan regains a seat he originally held briefly after winning a special election in early 2016, after Democrat Joe Farias departed.
Lujan then lost to Democrat Tomas Uresti in the 2016 regular election. Uresti was then defeated in 2018 by Democrat Leo Pacheco.
Lujan is now completing the term that Pacheco held until he announced his retirement to pursue an academic career.
So, since 2015 HD 118 has been held by 3 Democrats (Farias, Uresti, Pacheco) and twice by Republican Lujan.
Whew! |

The ongoing medical, cultural, legal, ethical, and political battles surrounding the unwarranted fear of COVID-19 (what Steve Deace has labeled "Covidstan") deserves its own separate newsletter.
This will be the last Monday newsletter with detailed COVIDSTAN information. Later this week we will release a COVID-centric newsletter, which will include all the latest information. |

5th Circuit Grants TPPF's Emergency Motion to Stay the Latest Employer Vaccine Mandate
On Thursday, November 4th, the Biden administration released the much anticipated vaccination policies regarding employer vaccine mandates.
Without missing a beat, multiple employers and states sued the Biden administration (including Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton).
Our friends at Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF) filed their own motion "to stay enforcement of the Biden Administration’s private employer vaccine mandate."
Just two days later, on Saturday, November 6th, the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeal granted TPPF's request for a stay, citing, among other reasons, “grave statutory and constitutional issues with the Mandate.”
Read TPPF's Summary Here
We're all going to need BINGO cards to follow the number of vaccine mandate Executive Orders and regulations, plus the lawsuits filed to restrain and eventually void the lawsuits and regulations. |

Helpful Medical Information
There is early treatment for COVID; access to that treatment is being suppressed. Grassroots Gold will provide you information/resources you can access to get the help you, your family, your friends can use to circumvent the medical tyranny now in effect in our nation.
This information could save your life, or the lives of your family and friends. |
| |
Our friend Steve Deace ("The Steve Deace Show") shared multiple websites/links last week, where you can find assistance in early treatment of COVID. |
| |
The Episode below, from October 26, 2021, features Timothy Cheung of Seven Cells Telehealth, who joins the program to provide a solution for folks having a hard time getting hold of ivermectin. In Hour Two, Fake News or Not is vaccine information they don't want you to know.
The interview with Timothy Cheung begins at the 30:20 mark, if you wish to skip ahead to that. |

Fighting Vaccine Mandates
Many of us are facing imminent threats to our employment from vaccine mandates.
These mandates are coming from both the private sector and the government!
Grassroots Gold Co-Founder Paul Hodson is among the millions of citizens with a pending vaccine mandate deadline just weeks away.
For those who want to pursue either preparing a religious and/or medical exemption, or for other legal advice, we are recommending you contact Liberty Council.
On October 15, Liberty Council filed a class action lawsuit "on behalf of members from all five branches of the military -- Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard -- federal employees and federal civilian contractors, who have been unlawfully mandated to get the COVID shots or face dishonorable discharge from the military or termination from employment."
They also filed a motion for a temporary restraining order and injunction. The preliminary injunction hearing will be on Monday, November 15 at 9 a.m., in the Middle District Court of Florida.
Grassroots Gold encourages you to check out Liberty Council, consider getting on their email and alerts list, and share this information with family, friends and patriots you know who are facing this challenge:

It's Time to Stand Against Covidstan!
The last 22 months we've become all too familiar with COVID-19 and the consequences of governmental responses around the world, from the local level to the national level.
We're sharing once again the following article, reviewing the latest book by world-renowned psychiatrist Dr. Peter Breggin, which challenges us to think long and hard about what's really going on here.
A key point Breggin states - “We can’t bear to think that there are people out to harm us, and manipulate us. We can’t bear to think there are people different from us—people who actually take pleasure in injury and domination—literally pleasure from it, the way we might [take pleasure] from a hug.”
The article is a bit long - it may stretch your thinking, it may reaffirm what you've already suspected. But it will make you take pause.

Once again we're highlighting Dr. Peter McCullough.
This time it's an interview he gave with Steve Deace on October 28, 2021: |

“I do not believe that the solution to our problem is simply to elect the right people. The important thing is to establish a political climate of opinion which will make it politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing. Unless it is politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing, the right people will not do the right thing either, or if they try, they will shortly be out of office.” - Milton Friedman |
