China’s latest disinformation campaign

This piece of disinformation sounds like it was written by Bert and Ernie of the Muppets: CHINA WARMS TO FOUR MORE YEARS OF TRUMP PRESIDENCY, published by Bloomberg News yesterday. The article claims that numerous high-level “Chinese officials” are thinking that a Biden presidency would be detrimental to Beijing’s interests.

Where to begin?

Why not start with the name, ‘Bloomberg,’ as in Michael, failed Mayor of the Big Apple and failed presidential candidate for the Democrat Party nomination, avowed mortal enemy of Donald Trump and oh, yes, owner of the Bloomberg business empire, publisher of Bloomberg News.

And just like a singing troupe of parrots

Bert: “Those Chinese leaders are really scared of Joe Biden!”

Ernie: “They know if he becomes President, he’ll get the whole world to gang up on China because he’s such a keen, decisive and articulate leader.”

Another good place to look is at the Chinese Communist Party, whose ‘summertime and the livin’ is easy’ treatment from the Obama Administration, now wants to portray Biden as their worst nightmare in hopes of getting American voters to switch to Biden. It’s called ‘reverse psychology’ in some circles and ‘psychological warfare’ in others, but one would have to be pretty sappy to fall for it.

Lest we forget that Dopey Joe was number two in command in the Obama Administration.

Zhou Xiaoming, a former Chinese trade negotiator, is quoted in the article as saying, “If Biden is elected, I think this could be more dangerous for China, because he will work with allies to target China, whereas Trump is destroying U.S. alliances.” And just like a singing troupe of parrots, “four Chinese officials” echoed that sentiment.

They even had room to introduce some reality as the article goes on to quote Zhou “I don’t think the election will change the relationship in a fundamental way. The deep feeling in the U.S. is that the U.S. should contain China. Whether Trump wins, or Joe goes to Washington, things will get worse.”

As indeed one would expect, given that China has just infected the entire planet with a novel new virus.

MSM, whose lies, disinformation and anti-American provocations, have become ever more strident

Another sector that would benefit greatly from this disinformation campaign is the Washington Establishment, Democrat or Republican, who see Donald Trump as a rogue wave that undermines the sand on which their castles are built. Just imagine, Chuck Schumer, Mitt Romney, Nancy Pelosi, Stacy Abrams and the majority of the old-time Washington insiders looking to depose Trump over the past three and a half years, likely now see this as their last chance to nullify the Donald Trump Phenomenon. If I were a part of this cabal, I’d latch onto that straw in a New York minute, in hopes of returning to what was ‘normal’ in 2016.

Finally, there is the so-called MSM, whose lies, disinformation and anti-American provocations, have become ever more strident in their calls to turn the Ship of State around. Their hopes are that a Biden victory will finally put ‘paid’ to the Trump Phenomenon and return to the days when no one in Washington gave a hoot about fly-over country or the deplorables living in it. If they can convince enough Americans that China is seriously afraid of Biden, then just maybe they can convince enough Americans fed up with China’s antics to swing the vote to Dopey Joe.

In any case, this campaign exposes exactly what these people think of the average American: dumber than a doorknob and easily influenced by shiny objects. Let’s hope this wishful thinking continues through election day, when Americans can decide on their own which candidate would provide a better future.

Builders and Destroyers: The 2020 Battle for America


There are two kinds of people in this world – builders and destroyers. Be a builder and reject the destroyers in November.

Builders and Destroyers: The 2020 Battle for America

There are two kinds of people in this world – builders and destroyers. You know who you are.

Our forefathers were builders who rejected monarchy in favor of limited government and the challenge of self-rule. Our forefathers understood the difference between servitude and citizenship. They chose freedom and built a more perfect union – a government of the people, by the people, for the people. The building of the United States of America was the most successful experiment in individual freedom and prosperity the world has ever known.

Our forefathers built America with a Constitution articulating its secular laws, and the Ten Commandments articulating its moral laws

Our forefathers built America with a Constitution articulating its secular laws, and the Ten Commandments articulating its moral laws. We are a Judeo-Christian country built on the Judeo-Christian foundation of the Ten Commandments. Let’s examine them.

Commandments 1-4 codify rules for membership in the group, they are the unifying principle of monotheism. Monotheism is at the heart of the Ten Commandments and its moral laws. Freedom and independence require self-respect, self-control, and respect for others. It is a delicate balance that requires maturity and the ability to agree to disagree.

Commandments 5-10 codify the ethos of individualism and respect for others: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” The Constitution and the Commandments define the balance between self and society, and between the individual and the group. There is no disagreement about the need for mutuality or respect for the individual.

Collectivism is an affront to individualism, adult mutuality, and the morality of Judeo-Christian tradition. Collectivism, whether socialism, communism, Islamism, or globalism, destroys the value of the individual and insists the value of the group takes precedence. The problem, of course, is that even in collectivism the group is made up of individuals!

The humanitarian hoax of collectivism is the destruction of the individual. Socialism is the destructive democrat party platform being marketed as altruism. Radical blue state Democrat leaders are telling the citizens of their states that anarchy, looting, robbery, rape, murder, and mayhem perpetrated by destroyers will bring equality and social justice. It is a lie. Anarchy precedes tyranny.

We still have the choice between builders and destroyers in November. We can choose between ordered liberty or the Seattle CHAZ—Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone that has become the country’s first No-Go zone. The radical Democrat destroyers support anarchy and the defunding of police departments, but without law enforcement there is only anarchy. Ask yourselves, “Do you want to live in the anarchist country of CHAZ?”

CHAZ is the predicted escalation of radical Democrat sanctuary cities and sanctuary states that protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding citizens

CHAZ is the predicted escalation of radical Democrat sanctuary cities and sanctuary states that protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding citizens. In CHAZ the criminals have taken over the government. This is how violent revolutions begin. This is what the radical Democrat destroyers are offering you in November. Voter beware!

Law-abiding communities, black and white, are builders who want to live the American dream of freedom and equality rooted in American individualism articulated in the Constitution and the Ten Commandments. Law-abiding communities, black and white, reject the destroyers of the radical leftist Democrat party who foment racial divisiveness and religious divisiveness by embracing Antifa anarchists, Black Lives Matter supremacists, and Islamic sharia law supremacists who are all diametrically opposed to the Constitution and the Ten Commandments.

The Democrat hype of the coronavirus pandemic and their support of anarchist pandemonium are both tactical weapons in the radical leftist Democrat war of destruction against America and America-first President Donald J. Trump.

There are two kinds of people in this world – builders and destroyers. You know who you are.

The 2020 presidential election is a battle between builders and destroyers. The outcome will determine if the dreams of our forefathers for a more perfect union of citizenship and individualism prevail, or if the radical Democrat destroyers successfully surrender our country to collectivism and servitude.

Before you cast your vote in November, remember Communist China Premier Zhou Enlai’s dismissive comment, “One of the things about Americans is that they have absolutely no historical memory.” The radical leftist Democrat destroyers are counting on you to forget the millions of people killed in the name of collectivism.

Remember that every group is made of individuals, this means if you choose radical Democrat collectivism you are choosing to destroy your self.

Remember that the ruling elite always take care of the ruling elite. The radical Democrat political party does not represent individualism and American interests. The radical Democrat party leaders are lobbyists for their globalist financiers who fully intend to bring socialism to America in preparation for the internationalized new world order of their globalist bosses.

There are two kinds of people in this world – builders and destroyers. Be a builder and reject the destroyers in November.

United, America Will Survive All Three Phases of Treason


United America Will Stand – Not kneel!

United, America Will Survive All Three Phases of Treason

Treason and tyranny are ancient and succeed due to deception and ignorance based upon lies and mental laziness. However, tyranny endures well in a culture of fear due to viable threats, the demonstration of physical force, and outright violence. What Americans and the entire world are seeing in this time is an attempt at overthrowing the United States of America. The worst enemy is the internal enemy because those ones once trusted, are different from who they appeared to be in a different time, or in a different light. America now has to deal with the domestic enemies in our midst whether we want to or not, whether we like it or not.

Treason is as old as the United States of America, although a majority of Americans would not realize it. Treason goes all the way back to the beginning of the nation. While citizens just celebrated Flag Day and the birthday of the U.S. Army, many Americans would likely be shocked to know that U.S. Army officers at the highest levels under George Washington had plotted to take over the infant Republic. The Newburgh Conspiracy is not well known. However, it is reviewable via many historical sources. Top officers who did not share George Washington’s belief that the U.S. should be a free country, intended to seize control of the U.S. Army before General George Washington could disband the troops after the revolution.

The Democrat insurrection built steadily soon after Lincoln won the 1860 election

That treason ended with General Washington. Through a loyal officer, the old general found out about some details of the timeline of the implementation of treasonous actions. He then called a pre-emptive meeting of all his officers, and he essentially talked them out of their dark treachery by appealing to the conscience of each of them, as well as reminding them of a deeper purpose behind the War for Independence. General George Washington is viewed by some historians as the embodiment of the ideals and virtues behind the War. Indeed, he understood that the new nation would no longer abide by the norms of tyranny.

Treason visited the United States once again, although many Americans were not taught about it. Treason led to the near destruction of the fledgling Republic in the days of the American Civil War. It is not well known because there are other aspects of the Civil War that are viewed as having more importance. Yet, evidence of the treason in the White House just after Abraham Lincoln was elected president can be reviewed through various historical sources. The attempt to create a new nation from the old nation was the basic concept, and the propaganda at the time from the Confederate States tried to justify the insurrection as the “Second Revolution.”

Democrats before the elecion of 1860 threatened to secede from the Union if an anti-slavery candidate were elected POTUS. In that time, Southern Democrats had institutionalized racism in their “peculiar institution” of African slavery that they justified in various ways. Christian voices and abolitionists threatened that institution by shedding light on it. Abolitionists were the most vociferous in to eliminate slavery. They saw it as a violation of moral law. The southern slave owners also felt threatened by Abraham Lincoln, and though not an abolitionist, Lincoln was on record as hating slavery.

The Democrat insurrection built steadily soon after Lincoln won the 1860 election. First, South Carolina seceded from the Union. Democrat Governor Gist of South Carolina demanded that President James Buchanan surrender U.S. forts in Charleston Harbor. A second letter dated January 12, 1861, from the newly elected Governor Francis W. Pickens additionally demanded that Buchanan surrender Fort Sumter because, “I regard that possession is not consistent with the dignity or safety of the State of South Carolina.”

More dramatically, treasonous activity surfaced in Buchanan’s White House well before newly elected president Abraham Lincoln was sworn in as president in 1861

Rumors reached president-elect Lincoln in Springfield, Illinois, that President Buchanan had surrendered the federal forts in South Carolina. Reports indicate that when Lincoln heard the rumors, he was purported to have said that if it were true, Buchanan should have been hanged.

Lincoln understood the Constitution. The rumors, however, were unsubstantiated. Nevertheless, southern Democrats in President Buchanan’s cabinet were outraged that Buchanan would not surrender federal forts to Governor Pickens. More dramatically, treasonous activity surfaced in Buchanan’s White House well before newly elected president Abraham Lincoln was sworn in as president in 1861.

Buchanan’s pro-southern cabinet included four men who were substantial slave owners, who sought to undermine Lincoln. But, in undermining Lincoln, they were undermining the nation, as they breached treasonous territory. Democrat John Floyd of Virginia, Secretary of War, made threats to resign if Buchanan refused to hand over federal forts—even in the event that the president would order supplies or soldiers to reinforce the fort against potential insurrection. Posing the possibility, Floyd stated that “It would be an act of aggression against South Carolina which I cannot be a party to; I will resign my office before I will sign such an order.”

Even more treacherous was Secretary Floyd’s diversion of significant arms shipments and military hardware to southern forts. Those forts were seized directly after Fort Sumter fell.  Floyd was also suspected of diverting $850,000 out of the U.S. Treasury with a vague excuse of dealing with “Indian affairs.”

Buchanan’s Secretary of the Treasury, Howell Cobb of Georgia, may have assisted Floyd with the disappearance of the huge sum. Cobb eventually resigned in December 1860. Then on February 4, 1861, Cobb became president of the convention of seceded states. Under Howell Cobb’s guidance, southern Democrats drafted a constitution for the Confederate States of America (CSA) and elected Senator Jefferson Davis as provisional president.

Democrat insurrection built steadily soon after Donald Trump won the 2016 election

Floyd and Cobb seemingly did as much damage as possible before resigning. Floyd resigned in a display of self-righteous indignation over Buchanan’s handling of Fort Sumter. President Davis was formally elected to a full six-year term on November 6, 1861 and inaugurated on February 22, 1862. As president of the C.S.A., Davis, called up 100,000 men from the militias in the rebel states, and readied for war.

Such treason successfully led to seizing control of the southern based U.S. Army forts as well as the weapons and munitions. President Davis initiated the war by ordering Confederate forces to seize Fort Sumter. The ensuing war was intended to defend the southern tyranny over their slave populations. However, suspicions indicate that the intent (minus the propaganda) aimed for destroying the Union, which had become an impediment to the expansion of slavery.

Today, Democrat insurrection built steadily soon after Donald Trump won the 2016 election. Trump is a direct impediment to the expansion of the tyranny of the criminal cabal of Democrat leaders, Socialist-Democrats (infant Communists), the Globalists, and some “Never Trumper” GOP elitists. But recently, the target of the political criminal cabal is the hardworking American citizens who trust in Trump.

True Americans are aware. The worst enemy is the internal enemy—the domestic enemy. Treason and the physical force and outright violence of their brownshirt militants like Antifa and the Black Lives Matter group must be met by the unity of the people of conscience. It requires a “top-down and a grassroots-up” response. Trump and true patriots need to continue to shine light upon the dark treasonous endeavors of the domestic enemy.

United America Will Stand – Not kneel!

Pray For Deliverance From The Crushing Evil Darkness Of Our Day


The “Midnight” that Archbishop Sheen foretold many years ago, is now full upon us; the forces of death rule the world, using any and all means possible to crush opposition.

Pray For Deliverance From The Crushing Evil Darkness Of Our Day

Greetings to all of you.  Unfortunately, this corona virus has made it impossible to generate a newsletter for June 2020.  Our only option was to pen a president’s message and an editorial, and to post them on our website and facebook page.

“It is necessary that the good, the children of light, come together and make their voices heard…..Before the power of prayer, the deceptions of the children of darkness will collapse, their plots will be revealed, their betrayal will be shown, their frightening power will end in nothing, brought to light and exposed for what it is: an infernal deception.”  (Archbishop Carlos Maria Vigano)

The movement to allow abortion, to enshrine it into law and then to make all of us pay for it, was built entirely on deception

The movement to allow abortion, to enshrine it into law and then to make all of us pay for it, was built entirely on deception.  Euthanasia and assisted suicide were built entirely on deception.  The total disregard for God as the Giver and Taker of human life; the belief that man has the “right” to decide who is to be born and when we are to die, are no different than the disobedience of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, based on the deception of the Serpent.  The devil, whom God, Himself, called a liar and a murderer, and the prince of this world, deceived Adam and Eve.  He will deceive anyone who will listen to him, with whatever lie will appeal to them.  Today he is deceiving governments and whole nations. “If you tell a big enough lie, and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” (Adolf Hitler)

The next stage of deception is fast upon us; the body parts of babies murdered in abortion are being sold for “research”; the cells of these poor children are being used in vaccines (generating even more blood money for abortionists).  Body parts, such as heart and lungs, are being removed from men and women, while still alive, to transplant into men and women with defective organs, so that they can live.  To give up one’s life for another is a wonderful thing, BUT, it is not a wonderful thing when one is murdered to save another’s life.  Lies and deception are designed to make us feel guilty if we do not sign organ donor cards.  (In the U.K. a law is being considered to declare that the bodies of persons who “die” belong to the state for purposes of organ harvesting, unless that person said no to organ donation.)

“A nation that will cannibalize its babies for parts will abandon its elders to secret abuse and choking, solitary deaths.  Such a nation fears death, because it believes nothing comes after.  So it also fears life.  (John Zmirak)

The “Midnight” that Archbishop Sheen foretold many years ago, is now full upon us; the forces of death rule the world, using any and all means possible to crush opposition.  The “slippery slope” is now far more slippery and wide, the agents of “Death” bolder.  The battle of “Powers and Principalities” is in full swing.  There is no middle ground.

Please pray.  Pray to God for deliverance from this crushing evil darkness.  Only He can help us now.

The Approach of Midnight – Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

Civil Unrest in Media & The Supreme Court’s Wrongful Decision


There is civil unrest rising within the major media institutions in Europe and the United States including the New York Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, Washington Post just for example. The younger generation journalists are starting to rebel against management for the fake news. What is repeatedly coming out is demands for news organizations’ core value needs to be the truth. They are objecting to what has been the perception of objectivity. Some journalists have simply not written a word for a week. The civil unrest we see in the streets is not really racist as much as it is against the establishment. This was not helped by the Supreme Court’s decision to deny cert to a case on qualified immunity. This decision may go down with Dread Scot which said blacks had no constitutional rights in an effort to prevent a civil war. This decision trying to support the status quo is equally wrong. There is NOTHING in the Constitution that says a government employee is an exception. The Bill of Rights is by no means a list of POSITIVE rights – it is a NEGATIVE restraint upon government. There is no foundation whatsoever to create any immunity for any government office when the sovereign of the nation is “We the People” not the government.

The Battle in Methodology


COMMENT: Marty; Your report on the cyclical methodology v academic is excellent. You should put that out as a book on Amazon. Your examples of this absurdity are numerous yet nobody in the media would dare publish this.

Thank you for being the voice in a world that is becoming darker by the day

KD

REPLY: The Dark Age was marked by a lack of knowledge. The term “Dark Ages” was coined by an Italian scholar named Francesco Petrarch. He applied the term as a designation for the lack of cultural advancement in Europe during the medieval period. We have certainly entered a new Dark Age where the media seeks to keep us blind to the truth. I tried to provide the source of all our problems. I highlighted these crazy forecasts from the one that stated we had five years left to live to 3 million Americans would die from a virus they may have even created. Not a single forecast has EVER been correct, yet the press continues to use them as scare tactics to terrorize the people, ensuring they lose their jobs while patting each other on the back for an excellent job of FAKE NEWS. I have tried to provide a report that goes into detail on the methodology being used so I priced it at just $4.95.

Gates is Funding Seven Factories for his Mandatory Vaccine


Bill Gates says his foundation is funding the construction of factories for seven coronavirusvaccine candidates. Europe is embracing his agenda where people will not be able to even leave their house without a digital certificate from Gates to prove they were vaccinated. Former Prime Minister Tony Blair is on board with the Gates agenda. Europe is isolating itself from the world for if their own citizens will be restricted in their movement, what hope will there be for a tourist. In Britain, you can leave your house and take a drive, but you must return and are prohibited from staying anywhere else. All of this for a virus they make out to be the Black Death when the death rate is 0.0003% of the population. This is all about redesigning the world economy by deliberately crashing it to destroy all businesses they deem unwanted for the zero CO2 world.

Tucker Carlson Highlights Google’s Ideological Control and Congressional Inaction…


In his opening monologue today Fox host Tucker Carlson took on the subject of Google and their control over 70% of all on-line advertising revenue.   Within the very accurate segment, Carlson noted that Utah Senator Mike Lee is in charge of the antitrust subcommittee and yet does nothing, absolutely nothing, to stop the authoritarian demonetization and deplatforming action carried out through the monopoly Google holds.

No single issue will do more damage to the reelection efforts of President Trump than allowing Google to carry out their political agenda. However, that accepted, that’s also the motive for the Senate and DOJ to do nothing. This is a good, honest and painful segment:

 

The Corruption Goes to the Very top!


It Goes to the Very top

Left to Right-Top to Bottom 

Obama, Soros, Brennan, James Comey, Rosenstein, Democrat Party, McCabe, Peter Strzok, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, James Clapper, Lisa Page, Schumer, Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Cohen, Eric Swalwell, Zuckerberg, Google, Don Lemon,  Dianne Feinstein, Rachel Maddow.

Reminder, the Swamp is trying to distract you with the scamdemic and planned riots…

Lost amid the ongoing protests and riots was former assistant attorney general Rod Rosenstein’s testimony. He signed off on the FISA warrant that led to Mueller’s Russia witch hunt, but he never bothered to read the warrant—he merely rubber stamped it! This is typical of the politicization of our security agencies and justice system under Obama. He used his partisan operatives to help him illegally spy on Trump before and after Trump’s election.

This is treason and there should be consequences.

The lying fake news media did not and will not report on this. They remain focused on taking down Trump, whom they constantly smear as a ‘racist’ while extolling the (non existent) virtues of Obama.

Obama’s shadow government remains in place. The swamp fights to remain deep and powerful. It’s time to drain the swamp. LOCK THEM UP!

—Ben Garrison

Don’t ‘Take a Knee’…’Take A Stand’!


No more 50-yard line, compromised apologies. Stand and worship. Stand and pray. Stand and make a real difference and stand for your country

Don’t ‘Take a Knee’…’Take A Stand’!

We are in an unbelievable season where our nation’s cities are being attacked and held hostage by shipped-in, paid rioters and protesters.  We are under siege with anarchists hiding behind George Floyd, a few bad cops and the endless sea of acting out leftists who hate Trump simply because he breathes air.

We are seeing some burning flags in protests and the infamous ‘take a knee’ movement is growing with taking a knee cropping up at public spaces,  thanks to the NFL and other leagues at more sporting events.  Just last week, Roger Goodell reversed his position about not supporting NFL players ‘taking a knee’ during the traditional singing of the Star-Spangled Banner.  Nascar did the same, allowing drivers and teams to ‘take a knee’ during the national anthem.

Now, rather than show a moment of respect during the performance of the Star-Spangled Banner and traditionally standing with your hand over your heart, the players and drivers now have the right to ‘take a knee’ if they want to and protest against the Star-Spangled Banner and Flag.

Not only did the NFL and NASCAR not lead with this horrible and un-American decision, but they have betrayed hundreds of thousands of service men and women who have given their lives for our freedom. They have stirred the fire of even more disrespect and hatred against our flag and country that will cascade down through all our schools and other public events.

Barack Obama should be thrilled about more NFL players and NASCAR drivers taking a knee during the national anthem.  It is just one more ‘apology tour’ that Obama (thankfully) wasn’t able to finish doing.  Shame, embarrassment and disrespect for the flag, God and freedom is what the wet knee on the grass is saying.  Those knees are pressing on the necks of our fallen heroes and the countless people of all colors who made it possible for the NFL superstars to make millions of dollars and say what they please.  All the knee on the grass will do is give a player grass stains and reveal his arrogance, lack of understanding and treachery for what is real and great.

George Floyd was horribly killed by a knee to the neck causing him to suffocate and die.  Countless leftists, and America haters are now taking a knee to the neck of our freedom, our heritage, our flag and sacred traditions by acting out.

It was just ‘Flag Day’ and I sang ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ in church with my music friend Cy.  I did this after sharing the miraculous story that led up to the penning of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ by Francis Scott Key.”  What the ‘Take a Knee’ folks don’t seem to understand is that a young America was fighting for freedom against the monster of Great Britain who out gunned us at every turn.  After the signing of America into existence in 1776, Britain started losing ground in the years that followed but they still attacked everywhere they could.  In August 1814, they took vengeance on Washington DC and viciously bombed the White House and many federal buildings.  President James Madison and his wife had to flee the city.

A group of 19 British warships loaded with cannons and the best weapons available at the time planned another major attack on the military base protecting Baltimore, Fort McHenry.  They had collected many American prisoners who were held on their ships during the previous months.  One of the prisoners asked a Baltimore attorney, Francis Scott Key to negotiate their release.  He was able to do this over a week’s time.  However, the British said before they released the prisoners, they were going to attack Fort McHenry.

As the attack started in September 1814, bombs all aimed at the fort,  lit up the night sky from 19 British ships.  The fort flew a large 32 by 42-foot flag out in front. The prisoners on board and Francis Scott key could only pray and watch the bombs exploding on the fort all night long.  As the sun rose, they were shocked and tearfully excited that the massive flag still waved proudly in the wind and all the Fort walls were still up.  Out of 1,000 soldiers in the fort, only 4 were killed.

The Fort had no comparable firepower to defend themselves. They could only wait and pray.  Once the British saw that they hadn’t destroyed the coveted fort and flag, they released the prisoners and left.  In the months that followed they signed a treaty with the new America and went home.  Francis Scott Key, in the days that followed penned ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ as a testament of that miraculous night and the flag that still stood.  God Almighty obviously intervened.

It is high time to stop ‘taking a knee’ and time to ‘take a stand.’  Join me and take a stand for our God, our Constitution, our freedoms, our real history, our flag and legacy.  Be not ashamed but be thankful and proud, acknowledging God’s hand in our making and survival.

No more caution and hidden carefulness about praying…. pray boldly and without shame.  Stand with respect and attention when the Star-Spangled Banner is sung.  Don’t wither to a knee.

No more 50-yard line, compromised apologies.  Stand and worship.  Stand and pray. Stand and make a real difference and stand for your country.

Take a knee only if you want grass stained pants.

Stand.
