Yet to those of us who still believe in the immortal truths upon which America was founded, their so-called “progress” is alarming, to say the least.

Sadly, some will allow this alarm to grow into defeatism. They will turn their faces away from the battle before us in hopes of finding a position to retreat to.

To those who would prefer retreat or surrender rather than the fight, I ask you one simple question:

If America falls, where will you go?

Where will you go to find another nation that provides the opportunities and individual guarantees of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?

Where will you find a nation whose founding documents guarantee a government of, by and for the people?

Name a place that offers you and your family the same or more than our United States of America.

The answer is simple: There is no such place.

In spite of our downward slide, America is still the best nation on the face of the earth. This is our land, these are our people, these are our cities, neighborhoods, and streets. This is our country.

Though the battle for the soul of America is fierce before us, we cannot afford to look away in hopes of finding retreat. There will be none.

Though I may sound pessimistic, I am anything but. God enabled me to endure a yearslong campaign by the left to destroy me and my family. They wanted me to serve as an example to anyone who would defy the entrenched bureaucrats of the swamp.

Despite their best efforts, I stand before you as living proof that victory is absolutely possible.

The very fact that we are gathered here today as American citizens free to speak and peaceably assemble should fill us with hope. SNIP

Not everybody stands to get a presidential pardon, and that is the only thing that protected Flynn from the system.

The prosecution, the courts, the entire process was used to punish Flynn and, indirectly, his family. Even left standing the abuse takes a toll.

I’m not suggesting “don’t fight.” Only that Flynn’s success is not evidence that the system can be fixed. In my point of view, fixing the system requires massive civil action, and a willingness to lose it all, because many who dare to challenge the system or stand their ground will lose it all.

I don’t think he was saying the system can be fixed or he’s proof the system can be fixed. In fact, he came out in favor of limited martial law because he saw no domestic, operating fix.

I believe this is encouragement to others not to let targeted abuses/injustices break you, hang on and draw on your strength(s) and you will get through it.I loved this article.

Sticky rice? YES.

My DW makes the best onigiri — triangles of rice with something in the middle such as umeboshi, a tart, salty plum.

The best there is...

This is our land

Yep

these are our people

Hell no

these are our cities, neighborhoods, and streets

Not any more

This is our country

That’s a total dodge. He promised a big PUBLIC reveal, not some hidden inferences.

I also know he has been peddling a movie, so far, with no success even among conservative filmmakers. There is something not right here.
