Prayers up for all the families suffering from the impact of this virus. And we're praying that the spread continues fading and that an effective treatment and vaccine are developed before the next flu season starts. And we pray that our people are able to go back to work in greater and greater numbers as the great Trump economy comes roaring back.
And I believe we the people are going to tire real soon about the democrats allowing the radical leftist revolutionary blackshirt/brownshirt squads of their party using violent organized fascist tactics to rampage, riot and burn our once beautiful peaceful cities. The people will rise up and tell the democrats running these cities to knock it off! The normal freedom-loving people of America want things to get back to normal and they want to get back to work.
Thank God for President Trump standing tall for our country and our freedom, under great adversity, against the enemies of God and America, foreign and domestic.
God willing, America will quickly rebound, but we must remain ever vigilant. The fight for freedom is never ending. The haters of God and His gift of Liberty never rest. They never let a crisis go to waste.
This coming election is becoming more and more critical with every passing day. The left sees this crisis as an opportunity to totally crush our free economy and our freedom and roll out a socialist green new deal.
Thank God for President Trump and our slim hold on the Senate standing fast against the forces of evil. But they desperately need our help and reinforcements. We must reelect Trump, retake the House and strengthen our hold on the Senate!
Drain the swamp, baby, and Make America Great Again and Keep America Great Always!!

If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster. And we have received 149 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter. Thank you all very much!!

Your donation is needed to keep FR on the air!!Free Republic is currently delivering over 1.2 million pageviews to over 230,000 visitors per day. That's 40 million pageviews to 7 million visitors per month or 120 million pageviews per quarter, 480 million pageviews per year. We currently have over 350,000 registered screen names on FR. Out of these millions of visits, hundreds of millions of pageviews, hundreds of thousands of registered FReepers and hundreds of thousands of regular lurkers only a relatively FEW actually donate the funds to keep FR alive. Now, I'm not complaining, because we've always managed to meet our fundraising goals in the past, but it is taking longer and longer to accomplish the task. And part of that may be because it's mostly the same few dedicated FReepers providing the funds, and, along with the rest of us, I'm sure they're stretched to the limit. Sure would be nice if a few more FReepers and lurkers would lend a hand and send in a few bucks. Doesn't take much. I think our average donation is around $20, but you can send in $5, $10, $20, $30 or more, and make it a monthly contribution if you can.
A relatively few good FReepers is all it takes to keep FR on the air so that hundreds of thousands of us can join together in kicking liberal butt and continue the fight for our freedom!!
For example, 1,500 dedicated FReepers and lurkers donating an average of $20 each per month is all it takes to continue delivering these hundreds of millions of propaganda-fighting, pro-liberty pages to tens of millions of readers every year. How many concerned citizens and potential voters can we reach for a tiny fraction of a cent per page? FR delivers a BIG bang for the buck!! Thank you for providing the bang AND the buck!!

The Press of a Patriot : The Importance of Free Republic
Norfolk Historical.org, Library of Congress, Vanity ^ | 5 January 2008
Posted on 01/05/2008 6:21:14 PM PST by bd476
The Press of a Patriot
Norfolk's first newspaper, the Virginia Gazette, or Norfolk Intelligencer, had a brief but memorable existance. Its first issue appeared on June 9, 1774, and what is believed to have been its last issue left the press on September 27, 1775.
The four-page weekly, the only known copies of which are preserved in the Library of Congress, was first published by William S. Duncan & Company, whose printing office was on the east side of the Parade or Market Square, later known as Commercial Place.
Arbitrary Governance Leading to Suppression of Freedom
In April of 1775, John Hunter Holt became its publisher and the firm's name was changed to John H. Holt & Company. Holt, an ardent patriot and a *son of John Holt, the public printer in Williamsburg, continued to issue the paper until it was suppressed late in September of 1775 by Lord Dunmore, the last royal governor of Virginia.
Mounting Resistance Forces Royal Governor to Flee
Because of mounting resistance to his arbitrary actions on the part of Virginia patriots, Dunmore had fled from Williamsburg in June of 1775 to the safety of the British warships in Norfolk-area waters.
And as Norfolk had a large Tory element, he had made its harbor the base of his operations. This gave Holt his cue, and his paper began a steady, merciless needling of the unpopular governor.
Matters came to a head when Holt's paper of September 27, 1775, presumably contained several pointed reflections on the alleged treasonous actions on the part of Dunmore's father in the Jacobite Rebellion under Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1745.
Seizure of Printing Press
This and other taunts spurred Dunmore into action. And at noon on Saturday, September 30, 1775, he sent an officer and a detachment of British sailors and soldiers ashore to "the dirty little Borough of Norfolk" to confiscate Holt's press and printing materials and to capture Holt if possible.
No Resistance Leads to Confiscation and Imprisonment
Meeting no resistance, the landing party marched to the printing shop and seized Holt's "press, tipes, paper, ink, two of the printers, and all of the utensils." Holt's bookbinder, a man named Cumming, was also taken prisoner, but Holt, who according to one account of the fracas was hiding in the building, was not captured.
Witnessing Without Resisting Makes An Unsafe Land
The raid was witnessed by several hundred persons, but apparently no one seemed inclined to do anything about the high-handed action.
And after the landing party, with its loot and prisoners, returned to the boats, the onlookers were "joined by a crowd of negroes" in three loud huzzas.
The account containing this comment, dated Norfolk, September 30, 1775, continues:
"A few spirited gentlemen in Norfolk, justly incensed at so flagrant a breach of good order and the Constitution, and highly resenting the conduct of Lord Dunmore and the navy gentry, who have now commenced downright pirates and banditti, ordered the drum to beat to arms, but were joined by few or none; so that it appears Norfolk is at present a very insecure place for the life or property of any individual, and is consequently deserted daily by numbers of the inhabitants, with their effects."
Immediately after the raid, Norfolk Mayor Paul Loyall protested that it was "illegal and riotous", but Dunmore, who had watched the incident through a spyglass from one of his ships, arrogantly told Loyall that he had done Norfolk a favor by "scotching the printed viper that was pouring its poison in their midst."
Dunmore's seizure of Holt's press caused a hue and cry, and the Williamsburg papers stepped up their campaign against him, even alleging that he had "dared offer violence to the chastity of a poor innocent girl" from the Norfolk Poor House and had also kept a mistress while he was in Williamsburg.
But that didn't effect the return of Holt's press, which was used by Dunmore to print a short-lived paper of his own aboard one of the ships.
Holt retaliated by announcing that he would set up another press in Norfolk, but this was prevented by the burning of the borough a few months later.
Holt then joined the Revolutionary Army, and after Yorktown he was associated with John Dixon in publishing the Richmond Virginia Gazette and Independent Chronicle. He died in 1787.
Norfolk Historical.org
* The Journal was a zealous advocate for the American Revolution. John Holt, the printer, showed his support in his imaginative masthead.
The double coiled snake with its tail in its mouth proclaims on the body,
United Now Alive and Free,
Firm on the basis Liberty shall stand,
And thus supported, ever bless our land,
Till Time becomes Eternity."
The snake swallowing its tail is a symbol for eternity. Within the coils is a pillar standing on the Magna Carta surmounted by the cap of liberty. The pillar on each side is supported by six arms and hands, representing the colonies.
On July 11, Holt devoted a whole page to the Declaration of Independence, using a large typeface and embellishing it with a border of printers’ decorations, the most elaborate printing of a government document up to this time.
Publishing the Declaration of Independence
The above short history of John Hunter Holt rang a bell for me, a liberty bell, if you will. There exists an uncanny echo from yesterday's history to today's headlines.
The importance of a free press and the vitality of independent commentary as found on Free Republic has significant historical roots in the founding and preservation of our great country.
The "sound" of new ideas, conservative activism, critical commentary, intelligent discussion and banter are found right here on Free Republic 24 hours a day, each and every day delivered free over the internet. The discussions on Free Republic are "heard" by those whom we elect to govern us as well as those who would take away our freedoms.
The many parallels found in the history of one printer and publisher to this online conservative forum, Free Republic, spell out the critical importance of keeping Free Republic in working order.
Do not be an idle witness to today's assaults on all Conservatives' freedoms. Become a monthly donor to Free Republic or make whatever contribution you feel that you can afford today.
