The body politic is sick, and America’s survival is at stake.
Are happy days here again? This issue of our print magazine, with a beautiful cover by resident cartoonist Yogi Love, will share lots of evidence to support that contention. Indeed, in so many ways, from inflation, to crime, to immigration, and on and on, there’s good news. And yet…
My introduction will be the fly in this joyful ointment. Senior Editor and my podcast co-host Scott McKay calls me Eeyore. We have two years of podcast conversations of me seeing the worst. I apologize to you, loyal viewers, but I have a bad feeling that I can’t shake. I had planned to write this when the theme of the magazine was chosen over a month ago. The events of recent weeks have confirmed my unease.
Two days ago, at the time of this writing, conservative activist and college speaker icon Charlie Kirk was assassinated. One bullet. One clean shot. His life was needlessly snuffed out by a radicalized young man, born to proud, middle-class parents. By all accounts, the shooter came from a good family. They turned him in, after all. One can hardly fathom the grief and despair they felt in doing so. They turned their son in, knowing he will be punished with a death sentence. Thus two families were utterly ruined by a communistic toxic brain virus implanted in thousands of Americans. Charlie Kirk was gently, kindly, and bravely fighting the virus with words, and he was curing young people left and right. He was murdered for his trouble.
Only a week before Charlie’s gruesomely broadcasted killing, a young Ukrainian immigrant, Iryna Zarutska, was stabbed to death by a repeat violent offender on public transportation in North Carolina. She bled out, terrified and alone, in front of...

There. Fixed it.
Less talk and more action. I know a lot of Christians do NOT want to, but something has to be done. First, turn back to God and take your children with you. Now. I know folks don’t want to hear that, but if not, the leftists communists WILL take over and they’ll kill whoever doesn’t bow down to government anyway. All you have to do is imagine someone like Hakeem Jeffries or Ilhan Omar or a number of others in charge.
Second, every God-fearing (with a foundation of Biblical values still left) able-bodied man (and probably woman) need to be called up by the government to contribute in some way to getting these people arrested, tried for treason and deported, imprisoned or executed. If it is not done, then what was just written WILL happen to them (us, you). Bookmark this post.
I beg to differ.
The left is EVIL.
Evil is drawn to it like a magnet. Every position they espouse is anti-God.
And yes, because of this demonic grade evil, our survival IS at stake.
I say potayto, you say potahto but we both love French fries. Or as you call them, freedom fries.
Sick can be fixed. The patient has to WANT to be fixed, but it's possible.
Evil cannot be fixed. It's part of them - and they would never want to change.
Exactly which people - specifically - are you talking about here, and what is the mechanism/criteria for identifying them so they can be tried for treason and executed?
(sighhhhh. No wonder people hate Conservatives)
(oops. Did I say that in my out loud post?) 😳
Sick implies something the person is afflicted with, like becoming ill, something they can’t help.
Evil is a choice.
I’m with you on this one.
That’s the truth.
Thanks.
Let’s meet in person and I’ll tell you. That is the only way you can get that information from me, the worthy targets of this action. No other way.
Aye...laid out plainly in the first Psalm.

Amen
For 50 years this country has accepted two of the most immoral things a God fearing civilization could: The dissolution of traditional marriage and the killing of the unborn. The state just unilaterally inserted itself into what was otherwise a covenant between a man, woman and God. With a stroke of a pen, one governor after another nullified marriage vows by signing no-fault divorce laws into effect. And alongside this, it became legal in all 50 states to kill the unborn.
Now I understand we have a republic and that not everyone supported these two decisions. But enough of the country did support both abortion and no fault divorce. Even today, tho abortion is illegal in part of the country thanks to the recent overturning of Roe V Wade, there is nothing stopping a woman in state where it is illegal to get a cheap flight to Chicago or some other blue city. And there is nothing stopping either spouse from getting a divorce. Even if the one that wants the divorce is committing adultery.
The vile things we are seeing on the left in regards to the Charlie Kirk assassination are shocking only in the sense that we have been willingly looking the other way at how depraved our country really is. Only when things have gone from bad to worse do we act shocked. We should have been shocked and outraged 50 years ago.
Oh, but we were. Our American experiment had worked so well, we opened the doors to refugees and immigrants who did not believe as we did. We thought they would want what we had. But freedom is not free. Those who did not believe in eternal life and judgment wanted every reward in the here and now, because they did not believe Anyone would be watching.
We strove for family; they strove for success. We wanted a job for the dad, but one which he could leave at quitting time and come home to us. They wanted to conquer the universities, the professions, the governments, the boardrooms, the culture, and they did. They wanted to change the world. And being so powerful here, they will always make many changes.
But we know, it is only the world. And we know Who has already conquered the world.
You have the clarity almost everyone lacks.
Thank you. If you knew my total background you would understand why. However, that discussion is not for this forum.
