Wind Turbines And Conservation Easements - Tax Scam Upon Tax Scam

John Baca, a real estate attorney from Hughes county, Oklahoma, talked to Jenni and Michael about the wind turbine companies coming into Hughes county and urging people to sign leases to place the turbines. Beyond the fact that the electricity generated from these nuisance monstrosities is shipped OUT OF THE STATE, the contracts create easements on the person's property that can be used in perpetuity by whomever the wind company designates. In addition, it appears that the wind companies are cashing in on something called Syndicated Conservation Easements, explained by ProPublica, below: The syndicated versions are different. Instead of seeking to protect a bucolic reserve for wildlife or humans, profit-seeking intermediaries have turned the likes of abandoned golf courses or remote scrubland into high-return investment vehicles. These promoters snatch up vacant land that till then was worth little. Then they hire an appraiser willing to declare that it has huge, previously unrecognized development value — perhaps for luxury vacation homes or a solar farm — and thus is really worth many times its purchase price. The promoters sell stakes in the donation to individuals, who claim charitable deductions that are four or five times their investment. The promoters reap millions in fees. (https://www.propublica.org/article/syndicated-conservation-easement-irs-tax-scam) Wind turbine development in Oklahoma must stop. The Oklahomans who sign leases to turbine companies for turbine easements on their land may reap a windfall at first, but they soon find that they'll never really own the land on which the turbines are built and, as John says, the lack of transparency surrounding the lease agreements eventually harms the land owner.

Wind Turbines Ruin Quiet County Thanks To Absentee Land Owners

11.22.24, Jenni and Michael interviewed John Baca, a real estate attorney from Hughes County, Oklahoma. Along with hundreds of his neighbors, John has been fighting the placement of wind turbines throughout the county - 42 THOUSAND acres signed away by 42 people. County Commissioners have been no help - they simply say they can't regulate what a person wants to do on their own property - however, wind turbines are more than a nuisance as John explains. Wind turbines should not be placed on the property of someone who doesn't live on the property - let alone in the county - so that it effects other property owners but not them.

Wind Subsidies Are Destroying The Natural Gas Market In Oklahoma

Natural gas is clean, efficient and available in Oklahoma through companies that live and work AND PAY TAXES in Oklahoma.

Natural gas companies get no subsidies and the wind generation in the state - so much of which is sent OUT OF STATE because Oklahoma already has more energy than we can use - which are very heavily subsidized, are destroying the market for natural gas. Why are we allowing this to happen in Oklahoma - a natural gas state?

Oklahoma Is Getting Used By Wind Generation Companies And We're Letting Them

Oklahoma generates more energy than we use, and oil and gas pay millions in taxes to the state, yet wind generation gets millions in tax subsidies and ships their energy out of the state. WHAT. IS. GOING. ON?

Trump's Pick For Commerce Secretary - Howard Lutnick - Michael's Not Happy

Carbon Capture Scam Explained

Friday, November 15th, Julianne Romanello came on with Michael and Jenni to talk about Carbon Credits - what they are and what they are supposed to do.

Julianne takes the time to explain what Carbon Capture is - that it is a part of the desire to develop hydrogen fuels. Hydrogen produces hydrocarbons that - if they can be sequestered, or pulled out of the atmosphere - will make hydrogen look like a very green fuel. Thus the impetus for developing carbon capture plants and CO2 pipelines.

Julianne puts the whole picture together - the big oil companies are doing this in their quest to create hydrogen fuels and they are getting big investors to fuel their work, leaving taxpayers completely at their mercy.

Republicans Are Pushing The Green Agenda In Oklahoma

Though Republicans are supposed to be skeptical of 'climate change' - it's even in our state Republican platform if anyone would read it - Oklahoma Republicans have been writing laws to allow for expanding green energy markets in Oklahoma.

Carbon sequestration is about nothing more than money - AND LOTS OF IT. Big businesses and the mega rich - like Bono - are donating to companies that are working on the 'new' economy of carbon taxes and sequestration of carbon dioxide.

Here, we run through a couple of names Trump is considering for appointments in his administration. Sadly, at least one of them has ties to climate change and the green new deal.

Oklahoma Is In Trouble When It Comes To Sex Abuse Of Students In Public Schools

Wednesday, November 13th, Michael and Jenni talked to V1SUT substack author Mary about why it is that there have been so many student abusers in Oklahoma public schools - both accused and convicted. Mary says that two reasons stand out - 1. Oklahoma has no "pass the trash" legislation. When a public school employee is accused of sexual misconduct in one school system, they just move to another and start again. Such is the case of Brent McGee in Wetumka (https://v1sut.substack.com/p/ungrooming-an-oklahoma-town-arrest) but there are many more examples. 2. Oklahoma needs to change the statute of limitations on child sex crimes. Victims often can't reconcile sex crimes committed by Oklahoma public school employees until later on in life. Adults should be able to sue the public school of the employee for longer than the 2 years currently in statute.

Without addressing these issues, Oklahoma students cannot be considered safe from sexual predation. Please follow V1SUT's substack for more information - V1SUT.com

What's The Problem With The Current Oklahoma Tax Credit For Homeschoolers?

Our guests make the distinction between homeschooling BEFORE the Oklahoma parental choice tax credit which provides a one thousand dollar tax credit to homeschoolers who choose to take it and a minimum of $7500 per child to a private school for anyone who applies and is accepted to the program. How can this tax credit hurt homeschoolers? Jana and Robert explain.

Why Is Homeschooling Important?

Two long-time homeschoolers tell us why they're happy they've chosen homeschool and why homeschooling is important for children. These distinctions are important here in America where freedom is to be key to our lives as citizens.

Oklahoma DHS and The Oklahoma Swamp - JJ Humphrey

JJ Humphrey has tried for months to procure an OSBI investigation of Oklahoma DHS. He has been thwarted at every turn by Oklahoma's elected officials including Governor Stitt and AG Drummond.

In this video clip of the live video from 11.8.24, Humphrey talks about how Oklahoma's very own SWAMP can prevent transparency and become a protectionist racket.

Inexplicably, Governor Kevin Stitt appointed the former head of the Office of Juvenile Affairs, Jeffrey Cartmell to the head of DHS after the departure of Deborah Shropshire who served less than two years in the position.

Under Cartmell's leadership, the Tulsa County Family Center for Juvenile Justice was raided by federal agents in July of this year due to extensive allegations of abuse and neglect. According to Public Radio Tulsa the center was placed on probation and was previously on probation in 2023, "though it's unclear why the status was lifted."

Why would Oklahoma not want to protect children, but instead, protect the SWAMP that appears to be allowing them to be injured?

OK DHS Is Harming Kids But No One Will Investigate - OK Rep. JJ Humphrey

Oklahoma Representative Justin "JJ" Humphrey has been a tireless advocate of families harmed by Oklahoma's DHS system. For years, whistleblowers and families have come forward to tell JJ about the problems they've had with the agency and how their families have been harmed by the policies, programs and individuals within this state agency. September 25th of this year, the House Committee on Criminal Justice and Corrections - which Humphrey chairs - sent a letter signed by a majority of the committee, to the OSBI asking them to investigate the agency. Since that time, there has been no investigation started. Governor Stitt has not requested an investigation, nor has AG Drummond and yet Humphrey has continually been given the run-around by every state agency falling all over itself to seemingly prevent an investigation from occurring. Humphrey discusses his attempts and why he thinks they are being refused.

Election Irregularities Noted In Oklahoma SD15 Primary - Robert Keyes

Robert Keyes ran for election to SD15 in Cleveland County as a Republican against Lisa Standridge in the primary this year. Fifty-one votes short of election, Keyes was fine with losing the election, but then got a call from a member of the Cleveland County GOP. That individual shared that he had found numerous anomalies in the election. Appalled at the sheer number of irregularities, Keyes wanted to file a complaint with the State Election Board (SEB) but realized that a simple recount would do little more than echo the report of the SEB, so he dug a bit deeper and found that he could file an Application For Irregularities. Keyes found this a very difficult process - so difficult in fact, that he called in attorneys. Here he explains a few of the anomalies his team found during their search.
