Thomas Jefferson proclaimed his stance on liberty when he wrote "I prefer dangerous Freedom over peaceful slavery". How do we feel about that choice now? Is freedom an eternal principle or is it only eternal until a good crisis comes along? Do freedoms only remain real if the conditions are right? Do we enjoy eternal principles only until someone gets sick and then they can be suspended for everyone? What about our rights and freedoms? Do we have them [...]
Unity. There's a belief that when all appears lost and our backs are truly against the wall, our huge differences dissipate like a phantom. Our nation overcomes in the end, through the power of unity. We unite and, in our unity, we beat down all enemies. It is the quintessential American way of beating the odds and finding a way to win. But this time, in order to win, we are being asked to separate, to disengage from one another, [...]
Oh Yes, elections really do have consequences. After the November election, we all braced for the deluge of bad laws. We knew the day after those November elections that Virginia was in for a horror show of damaging and dangerous legislation that would rain on us like hellfire. And yes, Virginia, we really do have subversive crazies who we used to see only occasionally on the streets and when they would be court ordered to a mental institution, we would [...]
Over the past several years, we have witnessed the proliferation of left wing groups in Virginia. With growing alarm, we watched the escalation of their aggressive intimidation tactics, and through it all, tracked the seemingly bottomless stream of money coming in from leftist billionaires, leftist organizations and even foreign governments (i.e. the Chinese). Armed with their bountiful resources, they found success in picking off elected offices in Virginia for over the last 2 years with candidates that were overtly inferior [...]
Jack Wilson, The Republican Party and “The Last Straw” Reprinted with permission of Peter Churins, editor, The Charles City Conservative Newsletter At first glance the title is rather deceptive in that it has elements of ambiguity that could be construed from a number of perspectives, especially the meaning of “The Last Straw.” In a chaotic world of fake news, guile and deceit, it could imply a number of things. Two immediately come to mind. The first could allude to [...]
Over just the last couple of years, many saw the harbingers of the clear and present threats we witness today. We witnessed the torrents of dark money flooding Virginia from bad people and groups supporting bad candidates winning the last couple of election cycles. We watched as dangerous and subversive movements funded by dangerous and subversive billionaires went on the offensive throughout the state. We learned of foreign money pouring into Democrat campaigns and funding registration drives in immigrant [...]
The left wing mob has breached our General Assembly and will now impose their destructive and subversive ideology on all of us. And yes, Virginia, you can buy elections. The election that was bought and paid for by the deep pockets of left wing billionaires, labor unions and abortion mills will now rain down on our Commonwealth terrible and unacceptable laws. Elections do have consequences. The stage was initially set by the redistricting whose lines frequently and, so ever [...]
Virginia has been the prized and coveted target for the left particularly over the last several years. Considerable outside money, effort, and major operations from rich left wing power brokers have zeroed in on seizing power in Virginia. The end game is ultimately to create a climate in Va. where our rights can be steadily eroded and the ruling power of "we the people" becomes a right we freely abandoned for all kinds of "free stuff" as well as [...]
I have always felt blessed to be able to recognize the good and the eternal truths from the bad and deranged and not be confused over the confusion of others. The Tea Party and other patriot groups have been steadfast in their knowing and defending their convictions and their foundational principals. They have stayed the course over the last 10 years in the face of unprecedented attacks and, in some cases, up close and personal destruction. Whether by weaponized powerful [...]
This last decade has been one of incredible changes at lightning speed. Some of these changes have been good ones, some not so good, as with all things, change happens and we adjust as part of life. In some cases, there are malignant changes that threaten the stability and viability of a people. In these last 10 years, we have witnessed these malignant threats and so nihilistic were some of the changes, we rose in unison to counter it [...]
