The storms of life will THREATEN me, but they will not OVERCOME me.

The storms of life will CHALLENGE me, but they will not WEAKEN me.

The storms of life will PURSUE me, but they will not CATCH me.

The storms of life will RESTRICT me, but they will not CONFINE me.

The storms of life will HURT me, but they will not KILL me.

The storms of life will CRITICIZE me, but they will not SILENCE me.

The storms of life will CAPSIZE me, but they will not DROWN me.

The storms of life will ENDANGER me, but they will not CONQUER me.

Our Nation is in the midst of multiple STORMS. Some may feel somewhat isolated from many, or even most, of these STORMS, but do not be naive and feel immune. STORMS of evil surround all of us. Some we can see and recognize, others we cannot see, but we can witness their manifestations. Inflation continues to make housing, healthcare, food, and energy costs more expensive. The growing National debt, where the current government leaders continue to spend money our Nation does not have, are adding one trillion dollars to our National deficit about every three months, threatening the dollar’s standing as the world currency, one of our most vital assets. STORMS of expanding wars, and the threat of others starting, are affecting world commerce. The FREEDOM and LIBERTY of the innocent are being negatively affected. The STORMS of illicit drugs, sex trafficking, and the continuing rapes and murders of our citizens by illegal aliens are expanding. The rape and murder of just one of our citizens by an illegal alien is one too many. Questions about the competency and cognitive condition of our current occupant of the White House brings with it STORMS of controversy and how that impacts the planning of many world leaders who seek our Nation’s demise. The multiple STORMS of politically driven prosecutions, almost completely against the current leadership’s opposing party, bring into question daily the fairness of our judicial system.

In addition to the beginning statements made above, we want to highlight words of wisdom passed down through the ages.

“Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.“ (Ephesians 6: 10-13.)

We are not asked to fight the fight alone, but we are not insignificant to the battle at hand. It is our faith in our Creator as the source of power to defeat that which we cannot see, that which we alone cannot conquer, that will calm these STORMS. Recall how the Egyptian army was defeated when Moses led the Israelites out of bondage in Egypt following the 10 plagues. “But Moses said to the people, ‘Do not fear! Stand by and see the salvation of the Lord which He will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you will never see them again forever. The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent [still]‘.” “Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night and turned the sea into dry land, so the waters were divided. And the sons of Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the waters were like a wall to them on their right hand and on their left. Then the Egyptians took up the pursuit, and all Pharoah’s horses, his chariots and his horsemen went in after them into the midst of the sea. And it came about at the morning watch, that the LORD looked down on the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud and brought the army of the Egyptians into confusion. And He caused their chariot wheels to swerve, and He made them drive with difficulty; so the Egyptians said, ‘Let us flee from Israel, for the Lord is fighting for them against the Egyptians.’ The LORD said to Moses, ‘Stretch out you hand over the sea so that the waters may come back over the Egyptians, over their chariots and their horsemen.’ So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its normal state at daybreak, while the Egyptians were fleeing right into it; then the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. And the waters returned and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even Pharoah’s entire army that had gone into the sea after them; not even one of them remained.” (Exodus 14: 13-28.) Do you doubt this ever occurred? Read from many articles related to this incident, and we list two of them here (wyattmuseum.com, 1993), (drrichardkent.org, 2014).

For a more recent reason to not fear these multiple STORMS, take comfort in these following words. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33; Jesus’ words to His disciples.)

The power that is behind us (God) is greater than the power that is before us (STORMS). Do not sit back and take your ease. Do your part to retain our FREEDOM and LIBERTY in our Nation. We must continually put feet to our prayers.

Buffering. That thing that everyone likes to see on their computer screen . . . . . . . . . or not. That endless circle of dots, dashes, or lines that seem to chase itself about, usually in a clockwise direction, like a dog chasing its tail. Is it a moment for self-reflection, a time to meditate upon your life, or is it designed to illicit dependence, frustration, anger and despair? Well, it may depend upon how patient you may or may not be. It is the device telling you that it is thinking about your request. It is trying to line-up its ones (1s) and zeros (0s) in an organized fashion to present to you that which you requested of it. It may be pausing your video while it attempts to load more video content. On occasion, it may continue seemingly indefinitely requiring you to start all over from the beginning, even to the point of unplugging your device, which by the way is a vastly better option than heaving the computer out your nearest window. By some, this infinite pattern has been referred to as “THE CIRCLE OF DEATH”, because what may or may not come up next, may or may not be what you had requested. In today’s ever-increasing internet speeds and with the development of more powerful computer chips, maybe just maybe you will see “THE CIRCLE OF DEATH” a little less frequently. We want to use this image and verbiage to illustrate the point of our blog today, and how our Nation, and in fact the world at large, seems to be stuck in “THE CIRCLE OF DEATH”, and that a BUFFER can serve a useful purpose.

Why do we often not learn from the past, and in turn end up repeating history? Why do we not look far enough ahead to more accurately predict outcomes and consequences? Maybe because too many in our society have become what we will call “microwave consumers”, wanting everything instantaneously, that any time we spend in waiting is a sin and an enormous waste of our precious time? Sometimes we fail to see results as we seek our power and wealth today. We may seek only for the betterment of ourselves, rather than for the benefit of our fellow man. If our world view is that our existence here on earth is only a chance happening, that our short life span is the sum total of our existence, then it is easy to see why so many seem to be in for all they can get now, not fearing the possibility of any kind of eternity for the soul. It is sad that for them their footprint in life is easily washed away as a rising tide wash away an imprint in the sand. For those who see the continuation of their soul after death, their imprint lingers long after, like a fossil imbedded in a rock, for many thereafter to remember, cherish and treasure.

Some BUFFERS are useful and should be encouraged. A border dividing nations provides security and stability for both sides. Our Nation’s southern border is like a sieve and acts like THE CIRCLE OF DEATH, bringing a continuous flow of illicit drugs, sex-trafficking, and grievous harm to many of our Nation’s legitimate citizens. The out-of-control spending habits of those currently in control of our Nation’s government bring with it THE CIRCLE OF DEATH to our economy by bankrupting our Nation. They have failed to provide a BUFFER, by spending only our income. We now spend more money paying interest on the debt our Nation has accrued, than what we spend on defense in our Nation. We invite THE CIRCLE OF DEATH as those who wield the levers of power within our Nation seek to steal the wealth from other nations, using other nation’s money for our own illicit purposes. The consequences of these actions will certainly undermine our dollar as the world’s dominate currency, forcing our dollar into an inflationary spiral for which escape may not be possible. The current occupant of the White House has allowed our Nation to be drawn into international conflicts which could lead to the Third World War. By not recognizing Ukraine as a BUFFER between Russia and NATO, those currently in charge of our Nation have not only failed to remember history but have also failed to predict future outcomes. By making our Nation once again dependent upon energy from other nations, we have lost the BUFFER that keeps rouge nations in check by allowing them to finance their efforts at world dominance, often at our expense, to our destruction. By shipping much of our manufacturing base overseas, we have lost our Nation’s BUFFER to be self-reliant and to insulate ourselves from nation-ending world events. By allowing social elites to dictate terms of FREEDOM and LIBERTY to our Nation through entities like the WHO (World Health Organization) and the WEF (World Economic Forum), we as a Nation have been led into subjugation by those currently in control of the levers of power within our Nation. By breaking down the natural BUFFER between many of our Nation’s news and social media conglomerates, and our current government leaders, we have allowed rouge agencies like the FBI and CIA, and other non-elected governmental administrators, to spread falsehoods, allowing them to squash the FREEDOM of speech guaranteed to our citizens by the First Amendment to our Nation’s Constitution. By allowing collusion between the Executive and Judicial Branches of our government, we have removed the BUFFER between the two and have allowed a two-tiered judicial system to run amok, unfortunately proving that our Lady Justice is not blind after all, and that her scales of justice have been unfairly weighted against any and all opposition to those currently in control of our Nation’s government.

THE CIRCLE OF DEATH has got our Nation by its throat and is choking the FREEDOM and LIBERTY out of our Nation’s citizens. If we don’t recognize those natural and normal BUFFERS, and see to their re-establishment, our Nation will be lost. If we don’t break free of THE CIRCLE OF DEATH, our Nation will be lost to history and join many others in the dustbin of failed states. What will you do to help change the course our Nation is currently on? Will you vote, and will your vote be one for the vast change in our Nation’s current destructive leadership, or will you sit silently saying you can endure whatever may come? But what of your children and grandchildren, and all who follow after you? If you fail to speak and vote for the re-establishment of sane, moral, and just leadership, how will those who have fought and died to establish and protect this great Nation before us view us in the here-after? Will we be considered among the honored patriots who have done everything within our power to save, and cause to endure, the greatest Nation that has ever existed upon the face of the earth, for the betterment of all?

Many of us have heard the term “Orwellian”, but for those who have heard it, do you really know what it means? If not, it is past time for some literary education. “Eric Arthur Blair (25 June 1903 – 21 January 1950) was an English novelist, poet, essayist, journalist, and [literary] critic who wrote under the pen name of George Orwell.” He was born in India, raised and educated in England. He was associated with the Independent Labor political party and was 46 when he died. “‘Orwellian’ . . . like many of his neologisms [a new word, expression, or usage; American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition], such as ‘Big Brother’, ‘Thought Police’, ‘Room 101’, ‘Newspeak’, ‘memory hole’, ‘doublethink’, and ‘thoughtcrime’ . . . “ have become part of our English language. (Wikipedia.)

“Orwellian is an adjective describing a situation, idea, or social condition that George Orwell identified as being destructive to the welfare of a free and open society. It denotes an attitude and a brutal policy of draconian control by propaganda, surveillance, disinformation, denial of truth (doublethink), and manipulation of the past, including the ‘unperson’ – a person whose past existence is expunged from the public record and memory, practiced by modern repressive governments.” (Wikipedia.)

His book, “Nineteen Eighty-Four” (1984), was published in in 1948. The movie, by the same title, distributed in 1984, is a gut-wrenching tail of how controlled a society can become. The movie is not for the faint of heart, for it brings to life what the political ideology of a totalitarian state could look like. It is unfortunate, but it would appear that our current government leaders, propped up by globalist elites, is on course to become to a great degree those fears for which Orwell’s book was written. Have you noticed how certain words have morphed over the last few years to become something they were never intended to become, like the word “gay”. If today you were to tell someone you were going out to have a “gay old time”, some might look at you with a slightly skewed eye. Maybe more recently you have noticed phrases spoken that have, in no one’s reality, any real application to the actual effects of the phrase. For example, the “Inflation Reduction Act” of 2022, has done nothing to reduce inflation, but in fact has only cemented inflation’s course in our Nation, and in fact has exasperated it. The Act only increased spending on global climate initiatives and the advancement of burdensome regulations on many. There has been an effort to rewrite our Nation’s history. Have you noticed any statues removed or defaced recently. How about any schools or bases renamed of late? We’ll list only one more as you can probably name many others. Consider the “Affordable Care Act” of 2010. That Act substantially increased the cost of healthcare for many and brought with it exclusions and cancellations. It wasn’t so “affordable” to many.

We will now quote from the movie what was explained to the lowly citizen, Winston, as he was being tortured into submission by “Big Brother”. The “Thought Police” had found him out, and reprograming was imperative. To set the stage, the book and movie talk about the war that the society was browbeaten into believing was occurring between Eurasia and Eastasia. Enjoy the conversation below and see if you can recognize any parallels between what is said, and what we see in our Nation today. If you cannot see any similarities, you may already be subjected to “Newspeak”, where simplified grammar and limited vocabulary is designed to limit a person’s ability for critical thinking (Wikipedia).

“In accordance with the principals of Doublethink, it does not matter if the war is not real, or when it is, that victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won. It is meant to be continuous. The essential act of modern warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labor. The hierarchy of society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. In principle, the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects and its object is not victory over Eurasia or Eastasia, but to keep the very structure of society intact.” “There is truth or there is untruth. To be in a minority of one doesn’t make you mad.”

Winston, the civilian being tortured during his reprograming says, “I understand how. I don’t understand why.”

“They say that time heals all things. They say that you can always forget. But the smiles and the tears across the years, they twist my heartstrings yet.” “We do not destroy the heretic because he resists us. As long as he resists us, we never destroy him. We make him one of ourselves before we kill him. We make his brain perfect before we blow it out. And then, when there is nothing left but sorrow and love of Big Brother, we shall lift you clean out of history. We shall turn you into gas and pour you into the stratosphere. Nothing will remain of you, not a name in a register, not a memory in a living brain. You will be annihilated in the past as well as in the future.”

“How does one man assert power over another? By making him suffer. Obedience is not enough. Power is inflicting pain and humiliation, otherwise you cannot be sure. Power is tearing human minds apart and putting them together again in shapes of your own choosing. Power is not a means; it is an end.” “In our world there will only be triumph and self-abasement. Everything else we shall destroy. The past is forbidden. Why? Because when we can cut away from his own past, then we can cut him from his family, his children, other men. There is no loyalty, except loyalty to the party. There is no love, except love for Big Brother. All competing pleasures, we will destroy. If you want a vision of the future, Winston, image a boot stamping on a human face forever.”

Do you see any FREEDOM and LIBERTY in the world view set forth above? We doubt it. The elites and “Big Brother” only want those things for themselves . . . . . not for you. Family, love, sex, food, entertainment, enjoyment, fulfillment, personal achievement, fairness, equality, justice, and mercy are qualities forbidden in Nineteen Eighty-Four. If we are not careful, if we do not speak out, if we remain silent in the face of opposition, if we are not mindful, our Nation’s calendar could be wound back to Nineteen Eighty-Four.

“Newton’s laws of motion are three physical laws that describe the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting on it. These laws, which provide the basis for Newtonian mechanics, can be paraphrased as follows:

1. A body remains at rest, or in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, except insofar as it is acted upon by a force.

2. At any instant of time, the net force on a body is equal to the body’s acceleration multiplied by its mass or, equivalently, the rate at which the body’s momentum is changing with time.

3. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces have the same magnitude but opposite directions.”

“The three laws of motion were first stated by Isaac Newton in his . . . (Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), originally published in 1687.” (wikipedia.org.)

Commit the three laws to memory as you will be tested on them at the conclusion of this blog. . . . . or not. We are not in the habit of giving tutorials on the dynamics on Physics or the kinematics of Motion. What we aim to do is briefly state that exerting force has effects. Some may be seen immediately. Some may not be recognized for an extended period of time. The short video clip above is meant to demonstrate our point. A great effort is being applied by the man to move the immovable object by himself. But is his effort a waste of time? Is there no benefit to his effort? We claim that there is benefit, but it will not be recognized immediately. No, we will not claim that if he pushed for a hundred years on that cement column that he would be even able to move it one-quarter of an inch. But consider the changes taking place in the young man. Will he ever be able to move that column? No. Will he become stronger over time? Yes. RESISTANCE MAKES HIM STRONGER.

Why do people do exercises? Why do people “pump iron”? Why do people sometimes push through their own immovable objects to set new records, to become stronger, to achieve that which for them was once unachievable? As humans, most of us have an innate drive to be better tomorrow than we were today. We seek to improve the human condition, not just to benefit ourselves, but to better others and society as a whole. We are not an “island unto ourselves”. We have the ability to impact not only ourselves, but the lives of others as well.

Remember back to the founding of our Nation. Once we declared our independence from Great Brittain, our little fledgling army, often without proper clothing, armament, or pay, were pushed all over the colonies being defeated initially on nearly every major encounter. Were they fighting for their extinction? No. They were fighting for their FREEDOM and LIBERTY. Many were killed. Thousands died of disease and starvation aboard British prisoner ships in the waters near New York Harbor. (history.com; updated August 21, 2018.) So, what did our Founding Fathers and those fighting for our independence do? They became stronger, more resilient, more cunning, and more determined than ever to see our Nation gain its FREEDOM and LIBERTY. RESISTANCE MADE THEM STRONGER.

Going back in history even further, consider the birth and rise of Christianity. During the reign of Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus (AD 54 to AD 68), he orchestrated his mother’s murder, and Roman sources also implicated him in the death of his wife (Claudia Octavia) and his stepbrother (Britannicus). “Most contemporary sources describe him as tyrannical, self-indulgent, and debauched. The historian Tacitus claims the Roman people thought him compulsive and corrupt. Suetonius tells that many Romans believed the Great Fire of Rome was instigated by Nero to clear land for his planned ‘Golden House’. Tacitus claims Nero seized Christians as scapegoats for the fire and had them burned alive, seemingly motivated not by public justice, but personal cruelty.” (wikipedia.org.) “Because Christians were already viewed with suspicion, he blamed the burgeoning Christian movement. He had Christians dipped in oil, and then lit ablaze on crucifixes to light up his nightly garden parties.” (evidenceunseen.com; James M. Rochford.) The historian Tacitus said Nero did this “. . . while he drove around in his chariot, naked, indulging himself in his midnight revels, gloating over the dying agonies of his victims.” (geocities.ws.) Nero was only 30 years old when he died by suicide. This was the reign of Nero under which the Christians flourished, not waned. Ironically it was under the persecution from Saul, who later became Paul the Apostle to the Gentile people, where Christians were dispersed sharing the Gospel message abroad, expanding the breadth and scope of Christianity (Acts 8:1-4). RESISTANCE MADE THEM STRONGER.

There is an enormous amount of RESISTANCE in today’s political climate. The overwhelming amount of it being aimed at those who are more conservative in nature. The leader of the opposition to the current occupant of the White House has been convicted in a biased, contrived, Marxist-like conspiracy. Many of this leader’s attorneys, and those who professed their Constitutional Amendment I right to assemble and to petition the current government authority figures for alleged grievances, have been subjected to an overwhelming number of bogus subpoenas, consuming time and finances. They must provide their own resources necessary to counter these claims, while those who bring these suits usually are funded by our own Nation’s citizens, your tax dollars at work. Many in this situation are proudly claiming that this RESISTANCE IS MAKING THEM STRONGER.

How are you fairing in today’s economy? Are prices too high and going higher? Are mortgages rates too high and interest payments to you too low? How are you fairing with today’s influx of illegal aliens? Are too many of them taking away jobs and tax dollars that could be spent on our own legal citizens? How are you fairing in a world on the brink of WWIII, where current actions and increasing threats from China proliferate? How are you fairing in a Nation where street violence and vandalism is on the rise forcing the alteration of your plans and the closing or moving of businesses you depend upon? Are you tempted to cower in fear and pretend the implosion of our Nation’s FREEDOM and LIBERTY will never happen, or at least impact your life in any substantial way? Do not succumb to the desire to be unseen and unrecognized. If those who oppose you can inflict casualties upon your conservative leaders, do not believe you are beyond their grasp to manipulate and contrive accusations against you. Let your words and actions prove that RESISTANCE MAKES YOU STRONGER!

On May 28, 2024, Anthony Blinken, our current National Secretary of State, made the following statement at a recent press conference. “Over the past few weeks, Ukraine came to us and asked for the authorization to use weapons that we’re providing to defend against this aggression, including against Russian forces that are massing on the Russian side of the border and then attacking into Ukraine.” “And that went right to the President, and as you’ve heard, he’s approved use of our weapons for that purpose. Going forward, we’ll continue to do what we’ve been doing, which is as necessary adapt and adjust.” The referenced article stated, “It is the second time this year that Biden has quietly relaxed his policy on weapons supplies for Ukraine. Earlier this year, he bent to calls to send long-range missiles known as ATACMS to Kyiv.” (usnews.com; May 31, 2024; By Reuters.) Another report said this, “While Washington ‘does not encourage nor enable’ Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied weapon systems outside of the country, it is ‘fundamentally’ Kyiv’s decision how to use those weapons, U.S State Secretary Antony Blinken said at a press conference. A journalist asked Blinken about the U.S.’s hesitation to provide Ukraine with long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) allegedly caused by fears Kyiv would use them to strike Russian soil. ‘When it comes to how Ukrainians use these systems, the targeting decisions are theirs. They’re not ours,’ the official replied.” (yahoo.com; September 16, 2023; Dinara Khalilova, The Kyiv Independent news desk.)

Why our current occupant of the White House and his rouge minions feel it necessary to “poke the bear”, Russia, is beyond our ability to comprehend. Those in current leadership have made it clear, even before the start of conflict in Ukraine, that our Nation desired to see Ukraine join NATO. In the Bucharest Summit Declaration, issued April 3, 2008, it was made clear that eventually Ukraine will become a member of NATO (politifact.com; April 14, 2022; Bill McCarthy). Russian has the highest number of nuclear weapons (worldpopulationreview.com; 2024). WHAT CAN GO WRONG ON THE EDGE OF A CLIFF? Russia had considered a non-aligned Ukraine as a buffer between itself and NATO. The simple threat of removing that buffer has brought on this conflict.

It is hypocritical of our current government inept leaders to boast of weapons withheld from our ally Israel for use against Hamas terrorists in Gaza, their remaining fighters in Raffa who profess the annihilation of Israel and America, but seemingly in the same breath will provide long-range weapons to Ukraine who is NOT an ally OR a member of NATO. Our current tyrannical government leaders will dictate terms of use to Israel but will “wash our hands” if Ukraine uses our weapons against targets within Russia, by claiming Ukraine has the right to make their own decisions and targeting decisions. Duplicitous and conflicting National policy. It is obvious that those in current control of our National levers of power love Ukraine more than Israel and hate Russia more than Hamas. The “why this is” is yet to be determined, but we believe it to be over the potential financial benefit from the continued production of weapons, and those who manufacture them, and the expected billions of dollars to be skimmed off during any type of reconstruction of that which has been obliterated. Our feckless government now in control is the same fault-filled government that caused the death of military members in the failed retreat from Afghanistan, has abandoned ELEVEN of our U.S. Embassies around the world (dailysignal.com; March 18, 2024; Tony Kinnett) and continues to see conflicts and wars pop up all over the world while telling our citizens abroad to flee for their lives. Our citizens do not desire to inflict pain and suffering upon the Russian people, or anyone for that matter. Pompous, ego-filled men have found it very easy to send our citizen’s sons and daughters into war, offering up their life and limb to feed the empirical desires of these ruthless, amoral leaders. These types of leaders follow the three “Ps” of management, Piss Poor Planning. But we believe the driving force of the three “Ps” is Prestige, Profit, and Power.

The current occupant of the White House is now aiding the expansion of the Third World War by allowing China and the CCP to infiltrate our Nation by military-aged men coming across our Nation’s boarders, allowing the flooding of our Nation with fentanyl and other opiates killing thousands of our citizens every month, by allowing enemies to obtain our farmlands and food processing plants, and making us too dependent upon green energy-type skeptical projects like EVs, wind turbines, batteries and their materials. Now, another front is opened up on this war against our Nation, and that is our current National leadership pushing this war with Russia, using Ukraine as our proxy while using our weapons of war. The current of the occupant of the White House is injecting our Nation into another Mid-East war by building a pier supposedly to give humanitarian aid. What we learned over the last many days is that the pier was poorly conceived and has become, for the most part, a 300-million-dollar anchor pulling us into this war. “The Gaza pier mission got off to a troubled start after U.S. soldiers and sailors stabbed the floating pier into a Gaza beach earlier this month, with the flow of aid temporarily interrupted when delivery trucks were overran, resulting in the death of at least one individual, The Associated Press reported.” (armytimes.com; Sunday, May 26, 2024; Beth Sullivan.) Several of our soldiers and contractors have been injured (one critically) in this endeavor. More blood and treasure given by our Nation, financial treasure that only further inflates our National debt soon to be pushed beyond the point of recovery.

Do you think we are upset here at FREEDOMGOFORTH.COM? YOU BET! And now, the current occupant of the White House and his puppeteers have made every effort to take his leading opposition in the November election off the campaign trail by constructing zombie cases, in deeply blue areas of our Nation, finding him guilty of bogus claims, and soon will possibly have him imprisoned or placed into house arrest for months pending appeal. If all of this fails to stem his burgeoning pole leads, these same characters will potentially orchestrate his death. Our three letter rogue agencies have in the past been proven effective at taking out national leaders permanently. Already subpoenas are flying all over the Nation accusing anyone having anything to do with the previous president. The reckless actions of this current administration are attempting to alter the trajectory of National election by causing fear leading to inaction for anyone or group opposing the current administration. This is blatant election interference on multiple levels, and if not stopped, will be the cause of our Nation’s demise.

It is past time for our SCOTUS (Supreme Court Of The United States) to become proactive and go on offense to stem the abuse of our Constitution by these rouge judicial agencies and their obviously biased and conflicted jurists. Always only being reactive allows events to have negative impact before being reviewed and corrected. It is time for SCOTUS to be the thermostat, not simply a thermometer. We all know that once the toothpaste is out of the tube, you cannot put it back in. We all know that words or actions once taken, cannot be unspoken or undone. SCOTUS injected itself into the “Hanging Chad” issues in Florida in the 2000 election, because it was a “broad social issue”. It is time to consider this again. It is time to ask for a Writ of Certiorari, under the Act of 1925 by the same name. It is time to Grant Certiorari. The former president’s lawyers need to ask for it. Wake up Chief Justice. It’s time to act. WHAT CAN GO WRONG ON THE EDGE OF A CLIFF? Our Nation’s FREEDOM and LIBERTY can be lost forever.

On this Memorial Day, please, do not thank a living veteran. Save those daily thanks for VETERANS DAY for those who are still alive and have either served or are currently serving in our Armed Forces. Memorial Day is a day to honor all those who have given their ALL in the defense of and preservation of our Union.

For those that have given their ALL, their very lives for our Nation, we must realize what was lost. What would have been. What could have been. Lines of heritage were not just altered, but in many cases were totally eliminated. Beginning with our Nation’s earlier wars, human flesh became the feast of the mechanisms of war. The ingenuity and depravity of man became the consumer of lives, where metal casings of tanks, bombs and bullets ripped through human flesh, like fingers through wet toilet paper. Poisonous gas like phosgene, chlorine, and mustard gas were indiscriminate, moving with the air causing paralysis followed by “a lingering and agonizing death”. (history.com; updated May 10, 2024; Dave Roos.) The brutality of the nature of war left not only human scars, but lost opportunities, hopes and dreams in graveyards and mausoleums.

It seems to be the nature of Americans to forget tragic events, as we are encouraged to move forward and forget. We are told that living a life in sorrow can create depression and can waste away a productive life. While true to a limited degree, it is often those experiences that forge the path forward. To forget what has happened before is an invitation to repeat the horror of the past. By failing to remember the human impact of the horrors of war, we have in a way desensitized ourselves to its lingering effects. Only those who have lost a part of their heritage through the violence of war can truly carry with them the scars left behind forever and can speak of the dangers of kinetic conflict forgotten by too many.

How many times in the last year have you viewed film of the attack on Pearl Harbor, or the falling twin towers in New York? We submit few if ever. Those in schools of education today have no remembrance of these events, and unfortunately few have learned and reviewed in classes of civics and National history these and other similar events. To many, they are of no significance to their daily lives, and will spend little if any effort to study, read, or hear of those personal accounts of those that have suffered the effects of conflict and war. Too many have lost sight of mortality and eternity. They have never held the dead in their passing and been confronted with their own mortality. They see little future beyond this life and only strive for whatever, whenever, wherever they can get their fix, their itch scratched, their desire for today met.

Our Nation is being filled with godless people who seek only personal gratification at the expense of anyone who gets in their way. They do not have the desire or want to spend the time to remember the honored dead. They see no value in the American flag, The Constitution of the United States of America, or in the Bill of Rights. They misunderstand the word FREEDOM, believing it to be FREE to do what you want to do, not FREE to do what you ought to do. The former is man’s moral corruption, the latter is God’s plan. Our prayer is that many will turn their lives around and live in the ever-after while walking in the present.

Spend some time tomorrow in reverence to our honored dead, to those who GAVE ALL. Remember what has been lost. Remember what lost it. Be thankful that you are the recipient of their sacrifice, for without it we would not enjoy in our great Nation our FREEDOM and LIBERTY.

Many in our Nation today are being careful about what they say or what they do. They are fearful of verbal attacks, threats, violence, or even arrests and imprisonment should their speech and or actions be deemed to be in conflict with those who currently hold the power of authority in our Nation today. In our current age, how does one stand strong, holding fast to our Creator’s truth and morality created in each of our own consciousnesses? Moreover, how does one move beyond developing COURAGE within, to manifesting COURAGE without. To have covert COURAGE is of little benefit to others. One must learn to express overt COURAGE in one’s daily life, if one’s COURAGE is to be an example to others, encouraging COURAGE in others. As it is in most things, this is easier to say than to do. It is easy to tell you what to do, but harder to tell you how to do it. So, we will rely upon the wisdom of others to kindle COURAGE within you.

Prior to the Battle at Trenton that changed the course of the Revolutionary War, patriots fighting for FREEDOM and LIBERTY used enormous amounts of courage. Check out some of the following excerpts from the book, “INDISPENSABLES”, by Patrick K. O’Donnell:

“Much time was spent waiting and freezing that night, on both the Pennsylvania and then the New Jersey side of the river. Fifer John Greenwood wrote, ‘I was with the first that crossed, we had to wait for the rest and so began to pull down the fences and to make fires to warm ourselves, for the storm was increasing rapidly.’ Before midnight, the storm became much worse, and the men began to fear the very real possibility that they could freeze. ‘After a while it rained, hailed, snowed, and froze, and at the same time blew a perfect hurricane; so much so that I perfectly recollect, after putting the rails on to burn, the wind and the fire would cut them in two in a moment, and when I turned my face toward the fire my back would be freezing,’ Greenwood recalled. ‘By turning round and round I kept myself from perishing before the large bonfire.”

Remember all of this took place December 25, 1776.

“With the storm continuing to rage, the nine-mile march to Trenton was nearly as hazardous as the crossing had been. ‘Many of our poor soldiers are quite barefoot and ill-clad,’ wrote one of the officers. ‘Their route was easily traced, as there was a little snow on the ground, which was tinged here and there with blood from the feet of the men who wore broken shoes.’ Greenwood remembered, ‘During the whole night it alternately hailed, rained, snowed, and blew tremendously. I recollect very well that at one time, when we halted on the road, I sat down on the stump of a tree and was so benumbed with cold that I wanted to go to sleep; had I been passed unnoticed I should have frozen to death without knowing it; but as good luck always attended me,[a sergeant] came and, rousing me up, made me walk about.”

They defined COURAGE!

In the Bible book of Ephesians, Chapter 5, the Apostle Paul gave this warning; “Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil.” In the Old Testament book of Amos, one of the twelve minor prophets of the Hebrew Bible, he said the following: “They hate him who reproves in the gate, and the abhor him who speaks with integrity.” “Therefore, at such a time the prudent person keeps silent [listen for God’s quiet wisdom], for it is an evil time. Seek good and not evil, that you may live; and thus may the Lord God of hosts be with you, just as you have said! Hate evil, love good and establish justice in the gate [the place where court was held].”

It takes COURAGE to reprove the wicked and speak for the truth. Our Creator will reward those who exemplify COURAGE. If we are to fight for and retain our FREEDOM and LIBERTY within our Nation, then we must demonstrate COURAGE in our daily lives by how we act and by what we say. Have you demonstrated your COURAGE of late? Will your COURAGE be witnessed tomorrow?

Can you identify where the sill point on this earth picture above is located? You might guess the north and south poles. But you would need to be more specific. Are you talking geographical north, or magnetic north, because there is a difference. Currently the two differ by some 310 miles but the north magnetic pole has been found to be moving toward Siberia at about 34 miles per year (worldatlas.com). The geographic pole remains stationary, and our meridians, lines of longitude, are fixed. The magnetic poles vary based on the flows and surges of the earth’s interior hot liquid iron core. We do not mean to give a lecture on paleomagnetism (the study of earth’s past magnetic field) but intend to use this as an example maybe we can relate to in our own lives. So, we begin by asking this question. Can you identify the STILL POINT in your life today?

Like us, we believe there are times in your life today when finding a quiet, peaceful moment, where you find stability and equilibrium from opposing forces, may be a bit difficult to find. Do you find it hard to find A STILL POINT IN A TURNING WORLD. Maybe at times you may feel more like Stretch Armstrong, or Silly Putty, often stretched to and sometimes beyond your limit to bear. Maybe at times you feel bent and twisted by forces beyond your control, like Gumby and Pokey, those loveable and bendable toy creatures created in 1953 by Art Clokey. They never complained when bent and twisted, but they couldn’t speak either.

We live in a world today where we have little influence over major events. We have wars going on around us, costs of goods and services continue to increase, violence on our campuses and in the streets of our cities, inflation is consuming more and more of our ever-shrinking dollar, and there is the rising debt our Nation is incurring that will someday have to be paid off. These forces pulling at us and bending us often seem to leave us on the ragged edge. We get angry, lose our cool, say things we shouldn’t, and without thinking of ramifications, do things that are irrational, sometimes hurtful, not only to others but to ourselves as well. Finding A STILL POINT IN A TURNING WORLD takes awareness and effort.

Finding the “geographical pole” in our own lives is much easier than finding the “magnetic pole”. But even finding the “geographical pole” takes vigilance and constant care, as it is with the earth’s “geographical pole” as ice flows make planting a stake or sign there is difficult to do. The “magnetic pole” in our lives is always shifting, and we need to continually seek it in order to find our STILL POINT IN A TURNING WORLD. We would suggest a simple motto to help guide you in finding and keeping your STILL POINT IN A TURING WORLD. “Live in the present like you would like to be in the future.” Spend more time listening and less time talking. Compliments are ethereal roses to give, and do not steal another’s joy when they are given to you. Humility and kindness will always reap rewards. Hurtful words spoken cannot be unsaid. Remain true to your commitments. Honor those who are older, and do not shun those who are younger. Protect your character, which is who you are when no one is looking. Finally, give praise and thanksgiving to our Creator, before making supplications.

To find your STILL POINT IN A TURNING WORLD, listen for the quiet voice of conscience. The source of a STILL POINT is not found in the tumultuous turning world. Consider Elijah of the Old Testament. He had just won a huge victory over the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, but a hit was put out on him, and Queen Jezebel wanted him dead. Elijah feared for his life and ran away to Horeb and hid in the mountain of God. “The Lord said, ‘Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.’ Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.” (1 Kings, chapter 19.) We don’t need an earth-moving event to calm our frayed nerves. We need to listen for the “gentle whisper” of our Creator. We are a fragile people and all we really need to find our STILL POINT IN A TURNING WORLD, is to listen for the still voice of His Spirit within us.

Our FREEDOM and LIBERTY are a gift from our Creator. Pick up your moral compass which will point you to your STILL POINT IN A TURNING WORLD. Be not dismayed at the events of our day, but put your hope, trust, and faith in the One who can center our lives to be able to live with peace in our hearts and minds.

It’s not often, if ever so far, that we have had more than one topic to satisfy our hunger for comment that needs to be addressed immediately. But this last week has been different. As a Nation, we are under attack on many fronts. We have lost our energy independence, our borders are breached daily by illegal aliens, we have rising interest rates, costs from energy to food to housing are increasing, FREEDOM of speech is being shuttered, Lady Justice has become unbalanced and unblindfolded, our National debt is surging daily, our children are being influenced by woke ideologies while our parents and those who are religious are under attack from within, violence on our streets is increasing, stores are being robbed daily, wars are breaking out on multiple Contenants, Communism, Marxism, and Islamism are on the rise in our Nation, Capitalism is under attack from Socialism, our police are under physical and verbal attack, our armed forces are spread thin and not meeting recruitment goals while reducing thresholds for entrance, Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) are promoting incompetent people, and Caucasians are under constant attack from reverse racism. We could go on, but enough said. We’ve addressed all of these topics in previous blogs, but today we want to focus on two others that are “rearing their ugly heads” as of this posting. Thus, the “DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN – Two-in-One Blog”.

First, we believe that the current Speaker of the House of Representatives has not held true to his words and commitments. He had previously stated multiple times during his selection for Speaker of the House, that he would hold the line on additional Ukraine funding until significant progress was made in securing our Nation’s borders. “House Speaker Mike Johnson told fellow Republicans on Tuesday that sweeping changes to U.S. border policy would be their ‘hill to die on’ in negotiations that have already grown tense as Congress considers [the current occupant of the White House’s] $110 billion package for the wars in Ukraine and Israel and other security needs.” (apnews.com; Updated December 5, 2023; Stephen Groves and Lisa Mascaro.) Multiple other news outlets reported the same thing. The recent foreign aid package signed into law by the current occupant of the White House included no significant progress to stem the tide of illegal aliens crossing our Nation’s borders. So, there is concern that the newly elected Speaker has failed to “walk his talk”, but the time to address this issue is not now. The votes have been made; the law has been signed. Spilled milk cannot be put back into the bottle, no matter how much we may regret its spilling. While the progressive left is collapsing under the weight of their support for antisemitism and Islamism exploding on many of our Nation’s campuses, those on the conservative right should do nothing to distract from the attention of the left’s implosion by throwing our House of Representatives into chaos over a Speakership fight. DO NOT throw the left a lifeline by distracting from their own ideological self-destruction! Deal with the current House Speakership problem later and in other ways. Throwing the House of Representatives into chaos now will hand the reigns of leadership over to the left when a couple more Republicans quit or switch sides. If that were to occur, there will be no longer any investigations, hearings and Sopenas over the left’s corruptions, lies, and deceptions. Instead, the persecution of the right will be expanded, and more and more will be prosecuted, arrested and jailed, and our Great Republic will be lost.

The second of our “DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN – Two-in-One Blog”, has to do with the ineptitude exemplified by representatives of our current National government. The hubris expressed angered us deeply. It was just another demonstration of the current government’s leadership believing that nationalism should be squashed by globalism, where the “control” of one country should be given over to the “control” of another nation or entity. As an example, our current government leadership wants to turn over our FREEDOM and LIBERTY to global entities like the World Health Organization (WHO). Later this year the WHO will try to win over the rights to impose upon our Nation dictates, lockdowns, and penalties for non-compliance, much like the British Empire did that led to our Revolutionary War. What sometimes “goes around” doesn’t necessarily have to “come around” again. Only a FREEDOM and LIBERTY loving populace, engaged and defensive, can secure personal and national independence. There was a statement made recently that enflamed our ire. ‘”We cannot, will not support a major military operation in Rafah absent an effective plan to make sure that civilians are not harmed and no, we’ve not seen such a plan.’ Blinken told reporters.” (usnews.com; May 1, 2024; By Reuters.) Anthony J. Blinken is our Nation’s current Secretary of State. What nation has a right to dictate terms to another independent nation? Consider this hypothetical. Assume our Nation is attacked by either Canada to our north, or Mexico to our south. In the process, they continuously launch missile and rocket attacks, and then in their final act of terrorism, they cross our border and kill 40,000 of our citizens (numbers provided by realclearpolitics.com, April 3, 2024, Star Parker), and take a couple thousand hostages back to their country. What response do you suppose our Nation would take? Would our Nation go after our hostages? Would you want to continue living under constant missile attacks, or be forced to move permanently from all border areas? Would you want our Nation to share our plans for response to any other nation, especially if that other nation may not be supportive of our plight and may in fact share our plans for reprisal with our attacker.

Does Israel have an obligation to share their rescue plans with our Nation, especially if you suspect our Nation to have divergent views from Israel and is known to share intelligence with others who may be antisemitic? We say NO! Unless you live under a rock and have no outside communication, you cannot claim ignorance of Islamic terrorism. Under their Caliphate (government leadership), they suppress women, behead Koran unbelievers, and seek the destruction and death of Israel and the United States of America. Their children have been taught this by their parents and teachers all their lives. We have Representatives in our Congress whose speech often seems to support the terrorist activities of these fringe Muslim Islamic groups. Ever hear of “The Squad”? Democrats have voted against a resolution backing Israel, condemning Hamas (thehill.com; October 25, 2023; Olafimihan Oshin). We want to make this clear. In our Nation we have FREEDOM FOR religion, not FROM religion. Islamic faith doesn’t paint anyone automatically as a terrorist, however most terrorist organizations today are Muslims of the Islamic faith, like The Muslim Brotherhood. We must be aware that their influence is growing within our National government. Refer to the following articles: “Senate Confirms Highest Ranking Muslim in Government . . .” (usnews.com, June 8, 2023); “Since 9/11, US Muslims Gained Unprecedented Political, Cultural Influence” (newsweek.com, September 1, 2021); and “Record number of Muslims elected in US Midterms” (theguardian.com, November 26, 2022).

Israel should not share any plans with the current U.S. administration. If we want to see our relationship restored with the only true Democracy in the Middle East, we need to vote for a change in our government leadership. Our FREEDOM and LIBERTY are at stake in our Republic. Your vote counts! Be a voter. Be an observer at our elections. Get involved in your political party to have a say in the direction of your party. Speak the truth to your family, friends and neighbors. Hold all to a high moral standard. Speak boldly and fearlessly. All of us are responsible, to whatever degree, to help reestablish our Nation’s morality and justice.

The above short video clip is taken from the 2008 cult classic movie called, “REPO THE GENETIC OPERA”. “By the year 2056, an epidemic of organ failures has devastated the planet and wiped out 99% of the human population. The megacorporation GeneCo provides organs on a payment plan. Clients who miss payments are hunted down by Repo Men, skilled assassins who ‘repossess’ the organs.” (Wikipedia.) While we could take this short blog a number of different directions, including the devastating long-term impacts of the COVID-19 injections, and the endless push from global elites like Bill Gates, to reduce the earth’s population, we will instead focus on another gruesome effect of the emerging “REPO MEN”.

Let’s set the stage for our different “REPO MEN” opera by presenting a scenario to you and asking what your responses might be. Assume that you have made a rather large deposit into a well-established bank. Your money is there for your use as you deem appropriate, and whether or not it gains interest for you is of no importance to this scenario. Now, suppose the bank all of a sudden chooses to steal your money and use it for their own purposes, because they don’t like how you look, or the clothes you wear, or the church you attend, or maybe even the politics you profess. Would you want to deposit more of your money into this bank? Suppose others familiar with this bank found out what the bank had done in stealing your money. Do you think any other potential depositors would dare take the risk to deposit any of their money into this bank? Do you suppose it would be likely that others with deposits in this bank might suddenly choose to withdraw their funds from this bank and deposit them elsewhere? Finally, what do you think the end result would be of the financial solvency of this bank? We believe your answers to the questions we’ve asked about the bank stealing your money would be quite evident. These really are rhetorical questions, as the answers are “no-brainers”.

Were any of you aware of the details of the aid package passed recently by Congress and signed into law by the current occupant of the White House? “The big U.S. aid package for Ukraine and other allies that [the current occupant of the White House] signed Wednesday also allows the administration to seize Russian state assets located in the U.S. and use them for the benefit of Kyiv.” (apnews.com.) Surprise! Our own government is becoming that “bank” we alluded to in our imaginary scenario presented before. The “REPO MEN” are hard at work.

We live in a world economy whether you like it or not. Very few things are totally made anymore in our Nation. Often times, what may even be “made” here is often simply assembled from materials manufactured and shipped in from abroad. Other nations from around the world invest in the U.S., in our institutions, factories, processing plants, and yes, even in our financial markets. Our Nation’s GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is dependent upon these foreign sources for the materials and goods consumed within our Nation. Since most of our Nation’s citizens have had little extra cash on hand to buy what is wanted or even needed, our GDP slumped to a skimpy 1.6% in the first quarter of 2024.

At FREEDOMGOFORTH.COM, we believe we are in a form of “Stagflation”. We addressed the foundations of this phenomena in several previous blogs. Three of them included, “IT’S THE ECONOMY, STUPID!” (September 25, 2022), “GOOD NEWS! The Rate of Inflation is Pruned” (October 23, 2022, which we affectionately referred to as our Rest In Peace blog), and “THE GREAT CREDIT CRUNCH” (October 1, 2023). We would also note that many of our other blogs contained snippets of information about “Stagflation”, which is defined as “Sluggish economic growth coupled with a high rate of inflation and unemployment.” (Wordnik.)

But you say, “We have a very low employment rate”. What one needs to realize is that many illegal aliens are taking “lowered” (yes, and we mean to say “lowered”) paying jobs. “‘One of the most crucial forces driving the nation’s job growth and economic vitality over the last year has been immigration’, said Rebecca Dixon, president and CEO of the National Employment Law Project (NELP). ‘Yet immigrant workers are also at the center of a growing crisis of workplace abuse, with undocumented (read that as “illegal aliens”) and temporary visa migrant workers among the most vulnerable to abuses including wage theft, health and safety risks, child labor violations, and retaliation from employers’.” (nelp.org; March 8, 2024.) Many U.S. citizens have given up looking for work and are no longer included in the jobs numbers. Many working citizens have more than one job, just to make ends meet. Low employment numbers given by our current administration need to be viewed with a suspicious eye.

Do you wonder what the two trillion dollars over what our government takes in each year goes to? “In 2023, the U.S. job market experienced a trend where nearly 25% of all job gains were attributed to government positions, underscoring a significant reliance on public sector employment to sustain economic growth.” (finance.yahoo.com; February 28, 2024; Caleb Naysmith.) Your tax dollars, and increasing National debt, is being spent in large part to increase the size, scope, and power of our ever-bloating National government. Have any of the rumored 87,000 new IRS agents contacted you yet? Historical facts in the last couple of years have shown continuing higher rates of inflation beyond the government’s target of 2% per year. At last report, it was at 3.5%. Prices of food, housing and energy are not coming down, but are being added on to each and every month. Fewer people are buying stuff, because they don’t have the money to cover the rising prices, so our economy is becoming stagnant. We have stagnation in our Nation’s economic growth, and we have rising inflation making goods and services more expensive. Add the two together and we have “STAGFLATION”. The “REPO MEN” are at work by taking back more of your hard-earned money, as your dollar shrinks and as our economy slows.

What could be worse than “STAGFLATION”? Try adding to it a Nation that no other nation in the world wants to conduct commerce with for fear of that nation, our U.S., “nationalizing” another nation’s assets. Other nations will find other ways to safely conduct their commerce, using currency other than our dollar. The result being that the U.S. dollar will no longer be the World’s Reserve Currency, the only true remaining benefit our Nation currently enjoys. Losing the dollar’s status “. . . would likely mean less access to capital, higher borrowing costs and lower stock market values, among other effects. Having the world’s reserve currency has allowed the U.S. to run large deficits in terms of both international trade and government spending. If foreigners no longer want to hold dollars for savings, it would force significant belt-tightening at home.” (money.usnews.com; February 7, 2024; Ian Bezek.) Look out! Here comes cryptocurrency, and the potential governmental control over your banking and how you may or may not be able to use your own money. We’ve already addressed this in our blog on October 8, 2023, titled, “THE GREAT BANKING SCHEME”. The “REPO MEN” will not only take from other nations, but you as a citizen of this great Nation are at risk as well.

The “REPO MEN” in our current government are out to take from us our FREEDOM and LIBERTY, granted to us not by our current government, but by our Creator, and they are simply reflected in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. The “REPO MEN” take from us our hard-earned wages to spend willy-nilly on pet projects and in the institution of ludicrous schemes, while giving little to no thought as to the impact on the well-being of our Nation’s citizens and the world at large. The “REPO MEN” will remove from us our rights and abilities to “. . . peaceably . . . assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances”, guaranteed by Amendment 1 to our Constitution. The “REPO MEN” will squeeze us for more and more as we have less and less and they will eventually try to come take back from us our dignity, individuality, motivation, and respect, all those “organs” within us that make us who we really are, children of God. We must displace the “REPO MEN” by voting for a change. Do so for your own survival, but also for those who will follow you in this life. Only then, will those who have been laid to rest in years gone by, in battles fought for our Nation, welcome us as true patriots and fellow warriors who have and will sustain this great Nation in which we have been so richly blessed to reside.
