What kind of government will we have when the dust clears from the COViD crisis? Will we become a nation of men rather than a nation of laws? Will we be subject to rule by a few? Or will we retain our heritage of a constitutional republic of, by, and for the People? We need […]
Welcome New and Returning Subscribers!
America is beginning to open up. Somehow, things have been repositioned. Instead of keeping We the People from the severity of the COVID-19 virus, the shift is to making a political statement about the virus. If your state is opening up, you are accused of being selfish because your governor is allowing citizens to earn […]
Choose Liberty
What national symbol declares this saying?” Proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all inhabitants thereof.” (Leviticus 25:10) If you are an irreligious person, it’s ok.
