Thank You, President Trump, for a Wonderful 250th Anniversary

 


Independence Day has come and gone, but President Trump still deserves special recognition for presiding over our glorious 250th anniversary.

He deserves every honor, considering all the hate, dishonor, and outright legal horror that he endured. From the rigged elections of 2020, to the lawfare and invasions of privacy, to the extensive defamation he has suffered from corporate media, influencer lackeys, and government toadies trying to shut him down.

He worked hard for the presidency, and he broke precedents, being the first chief executive to return to office for non-consecutive terms since Grover Cleveland. He fought the good fight, overcoming every political machination possible against him. Who knew there were so many enemies, foreign and domestic, determined to destroy our beloved United States?

President Trump was the final backstop to the radical destruction and the horrid decline of our country. If Kamala had carried the day in 2024, the United States would have ceased to exist. We would have become a larger, slightly wealthier form of Canada, with our constitutional rights eroded or stripped away, followed by continued military humiliation and cultural and political decline.

Thank God for Trump, and thank God he led the festivities for our 250th Anniversary.

Sadly, media pundits still mock his America First bravado. They don’t like the brilliant (some would call brazen) décor of the White House. They poo-poo the extensive array of presidential portraits in the Ovall Office. They don’t want to see MAGA hats, especially the ones bearing “Trump 2028” on the front.

He says what he wants, he insults citizens and world leaders, and he doesn’t care anymore. Does this still bother “The Beautiful People of the Beltway”? Of course, because Trump dares to say what the rest of them knew but were too timid to declare.

They had accepted American decline. They had bought into the historical truisms that Republics don’t last 250 years. Trump didn’t accept such lazy cynicism. Oh, how that bothered the pundits, the pollsters, and prognosticators in Washington DC, New York City, and Los Angeles! They enjoyed their ungodly counsel, they liked standing in their sin, and they loved sitting in their wealthy retirement homes, scorning everything else around them.

Trump did not. He has unleashed renewed vigor in America, a restoration underway. Not only are Americans proud to be American, but they want to help restore and expand this Exceptional Experiment.

The truth is, we have a chief executive, the first time since Ronald Reagan, who has determined not just to manage what remained, but to restore the greatness we had lost or witnessed taken away from us. China took advantage of easy trade conditions. Russia beguiled the foreign policy intelligentsia with empty proffering to join the international order, only to usurp South Ossetia, Crimea, and then invade Ukraine. Iran was still devising global nuclear destruction, burning our flags and despising our existence as the Last Best Hope on Earth.

Trump has stood up to those foreign affronts, unhampered by political pandering or collegial cowardice. Not only has he lived to tell the tale against our foreign foes, but he is rewriting our history at home, showing that American Greatness is here to stay. Jobs are up, industry is up, American morale is up. Immigration—legal and illegal—is down. Housing prices are coming down, along with crime and corruption across the continent.

Decline is a choice, and Trump has chosen not to go along with it. “Make America Great Again” is not an empty mantra for our 45th and 47th President. He is making our country great again, and he’s making all of us feel good about being Americans, too.

He has revitalized our American consciousness. He retells the great stories of our heritage. He gave front-seat honor to surviving World War II veterans, who fought evil overseas so that we could have the good, strong, and sure in our homeland. He has restored reverence for our flag, waving banners from then and now. During his July 3rd, 2026, speech at Mount Rushmore, Trump told the story of the Belgian family who stitched together a makeshift American flag to signal their need for help. American forces came to the rescue, including the descendant of Francis Scott Key, the composer of our renowned national anthem. What an amazing coincidence, an incredible story! I had never known about this account until I listened to Trump’s moving speech. To top all that, Trump invited the descendant of that soldier to take the stage and salute that same flag before all of us.  Just amazing!

President Trump is reminding us how great we are—and how we should not forget it. I wish I could say I voted for this, too, but his efforts far exceed anything I could have imagined! Now that’s the kind of President we need all the time.

Trump has made American patriotism cool again, and he’s making all the right people mad about it. The petty phalanx of political Pharisees has condemned President Trump for his unrestricted love of country. They certainly found fault with him for the UFC championship fights on the White House lawn. Along with millions around the country—and the world—I supported the move. Not only is America back, but we are promoting healthy, rugged, in-your-face masculinity again. So what if one of the winners claimed that Michelle Obama is a man? The fact is, compared to her husband Barack, Michelle looks like the one wearing the pants in that family. And American men are hearing the invitation from Trump: be men, be proud men, and be proud to be Americans.

We all should be proud, brave, and full of bravado to be Americans.

The world is witnessing our greatness and repaying us the favor for our goodwill, too.

I wept with joy and gratitude listening to Scotsmen, Irish, and Englishmen singing “Country Road, Take Me Home” at FIFA soccer match after another, then continuing the warm, melancholy refrains in the local bars. To witness Germans, Japanese, French, Norwegians, and Africans of all backgrounds celebrating our wonderful country was so overwhelming. Even Canadians took to social media, begging to become Americans. Who would have thought, after all the anti-American propaganda from Canadian politicians and media, that Canadians would want to go from friends to fellow citizens? One German visitor has gained well-deserved fame following his tearful admiration of our country, including a heartfelt apology because he had believed all the bad press about our country—and was gladly corrected.

All the visitors to the FIFA World Cup love our spirit, they love our kindness, they love our abundance, and they love us.

And I love President Trump for making all this happen.

Trump isn’t just making America Great Again. He is making Americans great again, and more people around the world are recognizing this greatness, not begrudgingly nor blindly, but with a bountiful friendship that will outlast future political wranglings and culture clashes.

The fundamentals of our country have never been stronger. No matter the threats posed by the specter of communism or the demons of sectarian violence, I know that our country can overcome and thrive.

Thank you again, President Trump, for a Wonderful 250th Anniversary Celebration!

Milei's First Year in Office in Twenty Quotes (Good News!)



Javier Milei has worked miracles in Argentina.

I wanted to outline this incredible X thread for everyone to see the incredible work he has done turning around the sinking socialist ship of state in Greater Plata.

Here are twenty quotes from his speech summarizing his first year in office:

Tenth Amendment Center: The Real Constitution that Politicians Don't Want You to Know About

The Real Constitution

the politicians don't want you to know about

I’ve been told that law students prepping for the Bar Exam are told that if the Tenth Amendment is ever among the answers on a multiple-choice question, they can immediately rule it out.

For the "experts," the Tenth Amendment is never the right answer.And politicians today - love it that way.

Thomas Jefferson had a little different view of the Tenth Amendment. He called it the “foundation of the Constitution.”

I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground: That ‘all powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States or to the people.’ To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specifically drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition.”

The Tenth Amendment makes it unquestioningly clear that the Constitution constrains the general government to very specific and very limited powers. As James Madison explained in Federalist #45, “The powers delegated to the federal government by the proposed Constitution are few and defined.”

James Wilson told us that "every thing which is not given, is reserved."That’s the dirty little secret politicians don’t want you to know.

Details Here

John Jay - the first Chief Justice - described things this way:"The Constitution only serves to point out that part of the people's business, which they think proper by it to refer to the management of the persons therein designated"

That's nowhere close to what how things operate in practice today - the largest government in history.Now – brace yourself. This might come as a shock. But the people in power are perfectly happy to operate with an undefined, boundless field of power.The founders referred to that as "arbitrary power" - one of the "injuries and usurpations" listed in the Declaration of Independence.

And that’s why the Tenth Amendment is never the right answer according to the politicians, and the academics, judges, power brokers, lobbyists and talking heads that support them.

Before the ink was even dry on the Constitution, the political class was already “interpreting” the document to expand its own powers. For example, by changing the meaning of the word "necessary" into merely "convenient" for federal power, Alexander Hamilton got his first national bank. And we're all paying the price for it too.Today, that federal government controls nearly every aspect of your life. It runs your healthcare, educates your children and monitors your every move. Bureaucrats in Washington D.C. even tell you how much water you can flush down your toilets.

So much for powers “few and defined.”

Sadly, most Americans accept this state of affairs. They even embrace it. In fact, most Americans actually believe that the federal government legitimately exercises all of this authority. After all, they’ve been taught all their lives that the Tenth Amendment is the wrong answer.

View of the Constitution

St. George Tucker: Our Original Originalist

He wrote the first systematic commentary on the U.S. Constitution - and was one of the most influential jurists and legal scholars during the formative years of the United States.Article HereGet Tucker's Book Here

The nature of the American political system today exacerbates the expansion of power. “Democracy” gives everybody the false sense that they have some hand in exercising power – or that they will at least benefit from its expansion.This creates a dilemma, as political economist Bertrand de Jouvenel explained.

Under the ‘ancient regime,’ society’s moving spirits, who had, as they knew, no chance of a share in Power, were quick to denounce its smallest encroachment. Now, on the other hand, when everyone is potentially a minister, no one is concerned to cut down an office to which he aspires one day himself, or to put sand in a machine which he means to use himself when his turn comes. Hence, it is that there is in the political circles of a modern society a wide complicity in the extension of Power.”

A written constitution was meant to lay down rules that check the tendency for government to grow. It erects barriers to government power that must not be crossed.As Jefferson put it, “in questions of power then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the constitution.”As John Hancock put it, "the powers reserved by the people render them secure"

But like most things, a constitution won’t ever work if the people don’t know how to use it.While we do a significant amount of work to help reach and teach people about the original, legal meaning of the Constitution - based in principles from the Revolution - "how to use it" is probably our most important work.

But for far too long politicians, bureaucrats, judges, law professors, and chattering pundits have told us how the Constitution should work - instead of the other way around. The political class has “interpreted” the rules. And it’s interpreted to give them more and more power over you and me.They teach us from day one that the way to keep the government in check is to convince the government to keep itself in check.Thomas Jefferson warned us how that would play out, noting that allowing the government to determine the extent of its own power would put the people of the several states "under the dominion, absolute and unlimited, of whosoever might exercise this right of judgment for them"

After generations of interpretation by the people in power - just like Jefferson warned, we now have a federal government that claims the authority to do virtually anything and everything. Along the way, our liberties have been whittled away. The power of the politicians grows at the expense of our liberties.

If we want to reclaim our liberties, something has got to give. It’s time for dis-interpretation. It’s time for “we the people” to reclaim their own Constitution and their own liberty.To do that, we have look at the Constitution through the eyes of the generation who wrote and ratified it.We’re have to follow Jefferson’s admonition and “carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or intended against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed.”And then we have to follow what the founders told us has to be done to keep the government in check when it refuses to follow the rules. Today, of course, that's 24/7/365James Madison told us that states and individuals should use a "refusal to cooperate with officers of the Union."James Iredell - one of the first Supreme Court Justices - told us that the ONLY way to deal with usurpations of power is through "the inherent right of the people to prevent its exercise."Not just a mere good idea - but the only way to deal with federal overreach.And Jefferson said "where powers are assumed which have not been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy"Also, not just a mere suggestion to try after everything else fails - but THE rightful remedy to all undelegated power.This is the real Constitution that the politicians don’t want you to know about.The one where the people of the states themselves determine the limits of federal power. The one where the people of the states themselves enforce the constitution through non-compliance and resistance. The one where no one who violates their oath of office is given support. As John Dickinson put it, when there's a "bad administration" (which we sure do have) - the answer is to be found "before the supreme sovereignty of the people."IT IS THEIR DUTY TO WATCH, AND THEIR RIGHT TO TAKE CARE, THAT THE CONSTITUTION BE PRESERVED; Or in the Roman phrase on perilous occasions—TO PROVIDE, THAT THE REPUBLIC RECEIVE NO DAMAGE.(yes, he used the all caps in the original!)In other words, in the American political system, as originally conceived, the Tenth Amendment is always the right answer.We've got a lot of work to do - but with your support, we're building a strong foundation for today and the future. Brick by brick. Person by person. State by state: For the constitution and liberty.Thank you so much for reading and your support!--Michael Maharrey, Michael Boldinalong with TJ, Alan, Mike and the rest of the TAC Team.

The Fight is Not Over: STOP the DIS-Respect for Marriage Act

The fight to stop False Marriage is far from over at this point.

Yes, there was a procedural vote, but then there will be a floor vote.

A number of amendments have been added to this bill, as well, and we need to urge a larger floor fight for more amendments until this legislation can be bogged down entirely.



The US Senate will take a vote on the DIS-Respect for Marriage Act on November 28th, 2022--after the Thanksgiving Break.

What happened earlier?


There was a procedural vote to advance the bill in the US Senate a few days ago, but we need to marshall our reasons to target these US Senators after the Thanksgiving Break


Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV)
Susan Collins (R-ME): (202) 224-2523
Joni Ernst (R-IA): (202) 224-3254
Cynthia Lummis (R-WY): 202) 224-3424
Mitt Romney (R-UT): (202) 224-5251
Dan Sullivan (R-AK): (202) 224-3004
Thom Tillis (R-NC): (202) 224-6342
Todd Young (R-IN): 202-224-5623

These US Senators The legislation will fail if they do not muster 60 votes.

These US Senators are facing Re-election at some point, and we need to make their lives miserable for voting against their constituents once already.

You can find their contact information on the blogpost that I shared earlier this year.

Rebel News Avi Yemini Serves the Public, Exposes and Debates Globalist Shill Nas Daily to the Floor

This was really refreshing.

Rebel News is some of the best, hard-hitting journalism out there!

Avi Yemini called out globalist shill Nas Daily a few months ago, and since then Nas has been playing defense, trying to cover his tracks and restore pretense that he is a down-to-earth content creator.

As if!

Then Nas had to agree to a debate with Avi Yemini, who had exposed him before, and Yemini just demolished Nas.

You have to check this out for yourself!

WATCH: Nas Daily calls Avi Yemini DANGEROUS but should look in the mirror

Rebel reporter Avi Yemini debates popular influencer Nas Daily

 Remove Ads

Prolific vlogger Nas Daily has accused Avi Yemini of making the world dangerous by encouraging people to think critically.

However, after stunning news of the collapse of crypto exchange FTX, which Nas Daily enthusiastically promoted to his millions of followers, many of whom would have likely been grateful for Yemini's scepticism before investing in the failed scheme.

"Financial advice? Do not take it from someone who is a crook," the influencer said during their debate in Dubai last week.  

“Trust scientists and listen less to people like you,” he added.

Yemini fired back, arguing we should listen to everybody and evaluate what is said before making up our minds about things.

“If we’ve learned anything from Covid-19, it is that experts get so much wrong,” Yemini answered.

“I didn’t need to do all that study to call bull on Covid-19 two years ago. The people who said I was spreading misinformation, it turns out they were wrong.”

When challenged to name even one thing Yemini had said about Covid that was incorrect, the influencer responded by insisting that the Rebel reporter had no right to say anything about Covid – correct or otherwise - because he was not a biologist.

“Who says what matters,” Nas Daily argued. “You don’t understand biology to be able to have an opinion on vaccines.”

Yemini denied giving viewers medical advice, instead arguing he gave censored experts a platform.

“My message would be to listen to everyone. I don’t want people to take my word for anything. Critically think. When somebody tells you something, don’t just believe it. Take all the facts into consideration. As for the experts and the fact-checkers, well, today it turns out they were wrong.”

Nas Daily uploaded a heavily edited version of the two-hour debate, with most of his own audience in the comments believing Yemini won.

Stay tuned to NasDebates.com over the coming days as we release parts of the debate that didn't make the final cut in Nas Daily's video.


Nas Daily tried to make himself look like a victim at the latest Davos Conference earlier this year. He wanted to shame Avi Yemini for engaging in so-called "guilt activism." The truth is that Nas Daily is the pre-eminent proponent of this guilt-trip activism on his YouTube account, going to great lengths to shame anyone and everyone who eats meat, who drives a car, and who does not worship the planet.

Avi Yemini called out his scam, and the world should thank this Rebel News reporter for his service.

You Cannot Be Free if You Cannot be Moral and Just


“If we are too weak to take charge of our own morality, we shall not be strong enough to take charge of our own liberty.” – Calvin Coolidge​

Uh, yes we do care what "the adults" are doing. Private behavior has public consequences. Perversion becomes pervasive when it is permissible.

I listened to a speech from a Democratic candidate. He talked about “liberty,” and how Republicans don’t really explain what they mean by liberty. This candidate then continued to define what the Democratic Party thinks of liberty: abortion on demand, any time on the taxpayer’s dime. Fully funding government institutions, even if they are not effective or competent. The freedom to marry anyone you want, whether the same sex or the opposite sex.

This candidate had a point: liberty is not something we define very well, and the fact that we fail to do so means that we will struggle in our fight for protecting marriage and the family.

Liberty is freedom from the restraint of the state? Yes and no.

You cannot be free if you are not alive.

You cannot be free if you are in bondage to destructive behaviors, either.

You cannot claim to be free if you are depriving other people of their freedom, too.

Where does liberty come from? Who are you, who am I to say that I should be free?

The Declaration of Independence answers that question:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, and they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, among these are the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

Life is the first right listed. If you are not alive, how can you be free.

If the behaviors that you promote undermine society and harm other people, whether in the short term or the long term, then we have another problem, don’t we?

Consider what the United States Constitution says about liberty:

“"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

Establishing justice comes first. Liberty is mentioned, but later on. It’s not the first thing, and it’s mentioned as a BLESSING, which means that liberty has a divine origin.

Liberty is not something that man could come up with. Liberty is a result of revelation and released into the community via reason. Not reason alone, but in subjection to revelation.

Regarding LGBT behaviors and ideologies, it is inherently unjust to:

1.       Deprive children of their natural parents.

2.       Promote sexual licentiousness, which undermine bonds of honor and fealty

3.       Expand venereal disease and other dysfunctions

4.       Promote lies and force others to adopt and accommodate those lies.

The LGBT agenda at its very core is not just unconstitutional but anti-constitutional. It’s not about promoting liberty for more people, but depriving liberty from many and according privilege to the few.

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson: Rise UP, Pastor!

 

Lt. Governor Mark Robinson exhorts America's Pastors
Watch as North Carolina's Lt. Governor Mark Robinson exhorts America's Pastors
My wife Cindy and I spent last weekend in Los Angeles with North Carolina Lt. Governor Mark Robinson and his wife Yolanda. As a quick reminder, we hosted 13 North Carolina pastors’ luncheons across the state featuring the Lt. Governor in 2021. 2,700 NC pastors and spiritual leaders participated. Of the 50 NC pastors and spiritual leaders who on May 17, 2022, ran for local office across the state, 25 won their primary, meaning that 25 will be on the November 8 ballot.
 
We are planning to organize another round of NC pastors’ luncheons in 2023, in order to recruit an additional 50, or even 75 North Carolina pastors and spiritual leaders to run for local office in 2024. This obviously will provide the best and most direct counterweight to cultic secularism’s heavy-handed manipulation of American culture and society.
 
A Christian counterweight is urgently needed. As Baptist theologian James Robert White expresses it: “History teaches us that enduring works of Christian insight flow forth from times of persecution and attack. As secularism rushes toward its inevitable totalitarian solutions, Christians need to think deeply concerning the issues that now confront us.”1
 
Cultural theologian and Christian apologist Dr. Joseph Boot latest book, Ruler of Kings: Toward a Christian Vision of Government, calls attention to the threat to freedom: “The current reality of the Church’s submission in the West to the cult of the State [with its] surrender to unprecedented lockdowns and illegal interference in church gathering, the collapse of civil liberties, the total control of education, expanded abortion, euthanasia, no-fault divorce law, the definition of marriage and family, homosexuality, and transgender issues [is clear].
 
“Because of the steady triumph of pagan humanism in the West, the modern world has seen the re-emergence of many archaic oddities, one of which is a self-anointed elite class - the intelligentsia - a secular substitute for pastor and priest.”2
 
To reinforce this point, a simple reading of the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20 shall be a boon for those obedient and a bane for those disobedient to God’s law and the covenant relationship with Him:
 
  1. • You shall have no other Gods before me.
  2. • You shall not make for yourselves an idol.
  3. • You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God.
  4. • Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
  5. • Honor your father and your mother.
  6. • You shall not murder.
  7. • You shall not commit adultery.
  8. • You shall not steal.
  9. • You shall not give false testimony.
  10. • You shall not covet.
In 1980, the U.S. Supreme Court removed the Ten Commandments from public schools, courthouses, and government buildings in Stone v. Graham. In a 5-to-4 per curiam decision, the Court found that the requirement that the Ten Commandments be posted “had no secular legislative purpose” and was “plainly religious in nature.” The Court noted that the Commandments did not confine themselves to arguably secular matters [such as murder, stealing, etc.], but rather concerned matters such as the worship of God and the observance of the Sabbath Day.3
 
The ruling tied in with an earlier decision in the 1963 Abington School District v. Schempp case, in which an 8 to 1 vote led to the removal of the Bible from public education. The U.S. Supreme Court thereby established secularism as America’s official religion, based on the calculated but improvident view of secularism as being “neutral” and “non-religious”. Justice Potter Stewart [1915-1985] was the only one not fooled by the argument, rightfully asserting that the decision did not lead “to true neutrality with respect to religion, but to the establishment of a religion of secularism.”
 
The calamitous outcome of the secular religious creed of man as his own god and moral arbiter by now is clearly visible in present-day America’s steep moral decline and its wholesale diversity of perversity. Nihilism and hedonism set the discordant tone in today’s nation.
 
At the time when it still was One Nation [for each and every person] Under God, early America belonged to Christ alone. This will be confirmed by studying the state Charters and Constitutions of the original 13 colonies: Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Connecticut, New York, South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, and Maryland ... as they established a Christian nation throughout the 17th and 18th century.

The American Founders understood that “fear of the Lord” above anything else is the prerequisite for acquiring knowledge and wisdom, as pronounced in Proverbs 1:7 and Proverbs 9:10. The Hebrew word translated into ‘awe’ in the Bible is yirah. It often directly translates into fear, like “fear of the Lord,” but it’s better understood as meaning respect, reverence, and worship. Respect for and obedience to God’s Word has been discarded completely over the last 75 years, resulting in such absurdities as secular education theories and the transgender reversal of biological laws.
Last Tuesday, September 15, we hosted our first Texas pastors’ event and our goal is to hold 20 TX pastors’ luncheons across the state in 2023. There are 13 congressional districts in North Carolina and 36 in Texas. For reaching an equivalent of our NC success in 2021, hosting 20 TX pastor luncheons in 2023 may lead to 125 to 150 TX pastors and spiritual leaders running for local offices across the state in 2024.
 
Cultural transformation is coming, thereby displacing the standard way of the last 100 years of measuring success in American Christendom with its buildings, budgets, and butts configuration. It entails a new model for apostolic leadership, where pioneers develop a multitude of leaders instead of merely feeding flocks of sheep. The new standard for measurement thus becomes: “How is the culture in my community doing?”4
