Why did 20th-century Americans abandon freedom in the first place? There is no question but that the type of society in which, say, late 19th-century Americans lived was totally different from the type of society in which 20th-century Americans lived and in which 21st-century Americans continue to live. Nineteenth-century Americans lived without such things as … Read more
We’re surrounded by redcoats. They might not be part of King George’s military, but their mindset, what they support, and what they’re willing to impose, is everywhere. The founders didn’t just fight an army. They fought a long, bloody war to secede from a system built on a set of views they considered as a … Read more
I am a firm believer in adults taking responsibility for their actions. Too often, you see the excuse for someone’s improprieties as a difficult childhood or growing up in a one-parent household. How about no, regardless of our foundation, we are adults and should know the difference between right and wrong, between moral and immoral. … Read more
Ever since Plymouth Rock, immigrants have routinely sought our shores. This universal recognition of what America has to offer is a testament to what we, the American-born citizens, usually take for granted. Also unmistakable has been the surge in immigrants seeking American refuge following WWII. Frankly speaking, this has been due to the fact that … Read more
A law currently passing through Parliament in England will, from 1st January, 2027, outlaw the purchase of cigarettes and tobacco by anyone then under 18, ever again, at any time during their lives. It will not be illegal for them to possess or smoke tobacco, only to buy it, meaning that they will always have … Read more
When I think back, most textbooks began with WWII and skipped earlier events, except for the Civil War. And while WWII was the defining event of the last century, it still hasn’t been fully recognized for its impact. This reminds me of what two friends, both sons of WWII veterans—one who served in the Pacific … Read more
What we see taking place today is a more public version of an ongoing effort by a president who isn’t politically connected and doesn’t care to be. These “airings” reveal, to our benefit, a well-organized agenda to subvert America into the globalist/communist empire, not by choice but of necessity. What continues to be overlooked is … Read more
Today’s attitudes regard our American Constitution as an old and worn document from another age, one that is inadequate for today’s modern needs. In fact, whenever it’s cited, an explanation for its use is usually given since today’s hindsight condemns its time to that sad and dark era of slavery. We forget or even fail … Read more
No matter the argument offered, it’s impossible not to refer seriously to the wisdom of our Founders. The ploy of holding another Constitutional Convention, under the guise of a “Convention of the States,” reveals the skullduggery with a closer look. Common sense holds that our Forefathers proved themselves through their willing and dedicated service in their … Read more
The American political landscape is not shifting by accident; it is being terraformed. While mainstream media pundits discuss “swing voters” and “campaign strategies,” a much more calculated and cold-blooded operation is underway. Every major Blue State stronghold – from the decaying urban cores of the Northeast to the Pacific coast – has secured a permanent … Read more
The New Year celebrations today usher in a rare occasion for the nation: It’s the once-in-a-lifetime semiquincentennial, the 250th birthday of America’s formation as an independent country in 1776. The bitter partisan battles that have alienated Americans in ways not witnessed since the Vietnam War are a reminder that few “democratic” experiments have endured this … Read more
Is our alliance with the EU still good for America? Since Donald Trump’s election, I have wondered whether (out loud on a few occasions) our alliance with Europe is still good for America. I mean the Brussels crowd. The EU/Davos types. The open-borders, bend the knee to the muslim conqueror types. I have no doubt … Read more
Nearly a year into his triumphant second term, Trump stands as a colossus, methodically dismantling the shadowy Deep State that has long strangled the will of the people. What began as a bold mandate from 75 million patriots in 2024 has evolved into a masterclass in executive resolve, yielding historic economic surges, ironclad border security, and a foreign … Read more
Times certainly have changed when catchy words can dismiss our relevant past. Despite such gibberish, what endures are our deeply embedded instincts to care for and love those we have brought into this world. That, in addition to our natural love of country, portrays just how immoral and evil it would be to do otherwise. … Read more
Veterans’ Day has been a day of conflict for me for many years. My Dad, and undoubtedly many of his friends and cousins, walked into a recruitment office and volunteered to serve their country to go to Europe or the South Pacific to fight the Germans or Japanese, who posed a threat to the free … Read more
Over the many years since Vietnam, the caliber of our governance has only strengthened my skepticism and doubt. It also had me coming to grips with “we weren’t in it to win it!” And now, this recent election has justified my suspicions. It also validated my seemingly lifelong question, “Just what would Americans defend?” Admittedly, … Read more
Today is not a mystery but rather a continuation of the greed that captures the human heart. Its latest alias, globalization, is today’s “must-have” need. Its destructive quality, however, while masked by the terms of innovation and equality, is only a fancier brand of imagery that clouds our future destruction. On a lesser scale, that … Read more
Donald Trump held his 7th cabinet meeting , updating the American people on what their government is doing, and how much fun this administration is having while serving them..
The inspiring words of Patrick Henry breathe fire in the holy cause of liberty: “We are not weak if we make proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power…. The battle…. is not to the strong alone: It is to the vigilant, the active, the brave.” The roaring … Read more
On the last day of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, September 18, 1787, Benjamin Franklin was asked by a lady whether the government being proposed for the new nation was to be a Republic or a Monarchy? His now-famous response was, “A Republic, Madam, if you can keep it.” Republics are one of the world’s … Read more
