Stopping at a red light prevents accidents. Subsidizing local law enforcement with federal grants for Flock cameras to take your picture, record your license plate, and automatically send it to the cloud may cause more trouble than an accident. Flock technology gathers information about law-abiding citizens and the criminal-minded alike and lumps them together in … Read more
Our Founders knew the words on the parchment they penned the Constitution on were insufficient alone to sustain liberty. “They were only ink until a virtuous people breathed life into them.” Joe Wolverton, The New American (TNA). An essential key to deterring federal abuse of power was placed in the hands of “we the people” … Read more
Be on guard! Collectivist Marxism, labeled on the surface as communism, socialism, Nazism, and Fascism, has a death toll that speaks loud and clear. There is bloody murder and heartbreaking misery of hundreds of millions of subjects and prisoners under statist monopolies of government force that gained ground in the 20th Century and is still … Read more
In these perilous times, the lack of a key founding principle from Washington and Jefferson will prevent America from being great again. President John Quincy Adams tells us why: “America does not go abroad, in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion … Read more
How we, the people, remain free isn’t the easy path. It requires the willingness to self-educate, to accept the mission passed on from the generation before, and to put country first. The words of the Declaration of Independence did not change history; the commitment of the fifty-six signers did. For they all knew, as Ben … Read more
Everyone knows that “AI” stands for “Artificial Intelligence,” but not everyone knows that the power that controls it victimizes because of another type of AI: automatic ignorance. We should not look at all the good it can do and ignore its potential for evil, nor ignore the morality of those who seek to gain control … Read more
Our Founding Fathers, taught to read from the bible on their mother’s knee, knew the good book was the foundation of the holy cause of liberty. The Preamble clearly revealed its biblical source: to establish Justice from (Amos 5:15); to insure domestic tranquility (1 Timothy 2:2); to provide for common defense and the general welfare … Read more
As a senior member of the New Hampshire delegation to Washington, D.C, Senator Jeanne Shaheen was elected to serve the people, yet her votes reveal her unwavering loyalty is elsewhere. As a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (the “CFR”), she is expected to forgo the Granite State to represent the Deep State. What … Read more
America is committing national suicide. Only an inside job could overcome the Founders’ placing the power in the people’s hands, per Article I of the Constitution. This power has been usurped by the Executive and Judicial branches. Even the eternal promise of the Bill of Rights, listing God-given, inherent rights to lock the door on … Read more
Let us pay homage to the fifty-six delegates who signed the Declaration of Independence. Men who were signing their death warrant in the eyes of the British Crown. They challenged tyranny for posterity. Emerson’s words remind me today that “[e]very mind must make its choice between truth and repose; it cannot have both.” Before Almighty … Read more
In the world of sports, we have the Super Bowl, the World Series, the Stanley Cup, and the World Cup. In the contest for liberty v. slavery, the war of words is fought with no referee, while truth too often surrenders to the volume of slanderous lies. Documenters of facts exposing the nefarious activities of … Read more
I’ve had the privilege of being friends with several WWII veterans. I’ve asked their opinion of General George S. Patton. The answers covered the full spectrum from extreme hatred to “we would storm the gates of hell for General Patton.” Military discipline makes men. Men’s warrior spirit of “kill or be killed” must be achieved regardless … Read more
On January 7, President Trump issued a memorandum for the heads of executive departments and agencies ordering them to withdraw from using public funds that support international organizations with interests contrary to the U.S. ( 31 UN entities). This appears to be a great birthday gift for America’s 250th anniversary; a serious effort to put … Read more
As we approach the 250th celebration of our nation’s birth, it is important to ponder the late President Emeritus of The John Birch Society’s brilliant appraisal of why Americans have been blessed with unparalleled liberty. John F. McManus said, “America has become great not because of what the government did for us; America has become … Read more
Many of us cheer evil trends of our day, the rhetoric of politicians cheaply espousing words such as “the rule of law”. Their words describe the essence of liberty without morality to back them up. Today’s politicians are effective because we, the people, are filled with cultural perversion. We know not what true law is because it … Read more
This 4th of July, 250 years of unparalleled liberty, does not make us immune to the historical trend that truth struggles for light while evil intent and deception continue. There is a century-old shadow of Nazi Germany that has changed our culture. The gay pride flag flies while most folks are oblivious to its sordid … Read more
The never-give-up spirit of 76 was displayed in the Final 4 basketball tournament win by UConn over Duke with 0.4 seconds on the clock. Is this same spirit alive in other areas of American life? When we sing “the land of the free and the home of the brave,” do you believe we are still … Read more
Scriptures tell us: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The knowledge of the holy one is understanding.” The Lord gave us free will. To gain understanding, He gave us the Ten Commandments, a divine blueprint we could freely choose to follow so that our nature would reflect His. Rebellion against God … Read more
The lust for world government goes all the way back to the Tower of Babel. It’s the unquenchable thirst of men wanting to play god. The power move under which we now live was born in the mind of Edward Mandel House. House dominated the Wilson Administration and had overwhelming success in FDR’s New Deal; … Read more
Will our school children cause a communist takeover of our nation? As in the 1930s, today this question would probably be ridiculed. What makes Americans so vulnerable in this hate-filled climate? Revolution starts in the mind. Consider Minnesota, which was once the rural Christian home of Little House on the Prairie, an example of rugged … Read more
