“The American Constitution is, so far as I can see, the most wonderful work ever struck off at a given time by the brain and purpose of man.” So said 19th century British Prime Minister Sir William Gladstone. September 17 marks…
This year’s stay-at-home orders and lockdowns imposed by governments on their populations represent a watershed moment in the history of the modern state. Before March 2020, it is unlikely that many politicians—let alone many ordinary people—thought it would be feasible…
There was a time in America when we had pastors and preachers in the similitude of Old Testament prophets. They were men who helped forge a land of freedom. Furthermore, they helped insure that in the United States there was…
We’ve heard Speaker of the House Pelosi call Republicans the enemy of the state, and Biden accusing President Trump of wanting more violence. While Biden cowers behind closed doors he is told by Pelosi not to debate Trump, “It will…
We are living in a dangerous political climate. The anti-American coup has escalated and the final nails are being driven into America’s coffin. In a speech on July 2, 2008, Obama said, We cannot continue to rely on our military…
We saw armed police officers raid the wrong house and kill innocent people in their beds. That happened most recently in a home in Louisville, Kentucky. There, three undercover cops shot 26 year old Breonna Taylor to death during a…
Look at us. Consider Los Angeles, Oakland, Boston, New York City, Trenton, and Baltimore. For good reason, each would call themselves a Democrat controlled city. They have not had a Republican majority on their city councils in decades. Despite their…

Five decades after America gained independence, the French author Alexis de Tocqueville remarked on our nation’s exceptional character. Unlike other nations that were defined by ethnicity, geography, common heritage, social class, or hierarchal structures, America was a nation of immigrants…
We have been down this road before, but it appears the time is again upon us to recycle the ridiculous idea of creating another liberal, blue state, out of a tiny federal district, to satisfy left wing democrats. Can you…
From the shoes you wear to the ice cream you eat, politics has found a way to sneak into some of the most mundane aspects of our lives. The new trend of “Woke Capital,” where firms are actively promoting social…
If President George Washington miraculously returned to America today what do you think he would have to say to our countrymen, and our elected representatives? I don’t think most of it would be complimentary. I think he would be horrified at…
On June 16, 2015, the future President and his wife rode down the escalator at Trump Tower in New York City and the political world will never be the same. The occasion was the presidential announcement speech of Donald Trump.…
As my good friend, Coach Dave Daubenmire says, “the world’s on fire… the culture’s disintegrating.” Indeed. I honestly don’t even know where to begin today’s message. Because I only have a limited amount of time, and a seemingly unlimited amount of…
We’ve lived through the most bizarre experience of human folly in my lifetime, and perhaps in generations. Among the strangest aspects of this has been the near universal failure on the part of regular people, and even the appointed “experts,”…
