Free Republic

We have told you before about “Republican” strategist David Kochel. Kochel has been an integral part of the Branstad-Reynolds machine. He was Mitt Romney’s top Iowa guy. He targeted Congressman Steve King for years. He lobbied for legalized homosexual marriage for years before it happened. Before Joe Biden and Barack Obama got on board, even. Four years ago he proclaimed himself a Never Trumper. He has gone so far as to suggest Trump coordinated with Putin and it was “maybe treasonous.”

It is time for Americans to disregard the platitudes that have been the rationale for the shutdowns destroying most institutions, including small businesses, schools and churches. By now everyone is wearily familiar with the supposedly spotless motives of those who are fast forwarding their “New Normal” and “Great Reset.” As the toxic effects of lockdowns and regulatory minutiae have become apparent, Americans realize neither their individual nor their collective good has been furthered. Instead, they have found nearly all their social ties and institutions either short circuited or transformed beyond belief. How are radicals, including the high priests of Covidism,...

From Matt Bracken (FReeper Travis Mcgee): "If you're going to the Valdosta GA Trump rally, look for this sign, that'll be me. The message is on both sides, and I have an extension stick to put it ten feet up, while the weight is on the ground. I don't know where I'll be, but you can find me by this sign." Trump is going to Valdosta, Georgia today, Saturday, 5 December 2020, for a rally at the Valdosta, GA, airport, 7:00pm local time. Doors open at 3:00pm.

Georgia vote counter Ruby Freeman, who was identified as the mother of the woman who brought in suitcases full of ballots after observers were instructed to leave in a video posted by the Trump Campaign, solicited donations in a Facebook post on November 8, while she likely was still serving as an election worker. In the Facebook post, Freeman notes that she had worked for 16 hours on Friday, November 6 and that she had not taken a weekend off in three weeks. She also tagged Diamond Nails in her post, indicating where she desired to spend her donated funds....

Two AP headlines in the 1 DEC Richmond, Va. newspaper just prepared us for a ruined Christmas: "Travel at Thanksgiving likely to cause a big surge of the coronavirus" and "Fearing post-Thanksgiving cases, officials order tough restrictions." It appears that our new normal is here to stay. Is there really a second wave of COVID deaths occurring in the European Union (E.U.), United Kingdom (U.K.), and U.S. to justify this? The answer was found in the latest COVID-19 death rate trends in an interactive chart from Our World in Data. The second surge is now obvious. This data source uses...

The Pentagon is pushing its naval fleet to the brink and this is manifesting itself in its vessels appearing run-down after sustained operations. The Lewis and Clarke class dry cargo ship USNS Washington Chambers (T-AKE-11) pulled into San Diego Bay on Friday, December 4th, 2020

Hipster leftist starts fight with a “Stop the Steal” Trump supporter. Lives to regret it.

The War Is Not Over. The Battle Continues. Tune In 10 AM

One of the greatest burdens I have as a shepherd of the Lord is, “Oh, God, how do I bring hope and comfort to believers who are enduring such great pain and suffering? Give me a message that will cancel their doubt and fear. Give me truth that will dry up the tears of the grieving and put a song on the lips of the hopeless.” The message I hear from the Holy Spirit for God’s people is very simple: “Go to my Word, and stand on my promises. Reject your doubtful feelings.” All hope is born out of God’s...

Today our society is broken. We have out-of-control schools, confused leaders, collapsing banking systems, widespread unemployment, unmanageable social programs, and a complete breakdown of moral values. And to top it off, the earth could be standing on the brink of a nuclear catastrophe. In short, things seem to be spinning out of control. How can believers possibly stand firm and steadfast in the midst of all this chaos? The author of Hebrews answers us: We must see Jesus in all that is happening in our lives (see Hebrews 2:9). Some may wonder, “How could the Lord be in any of...

"God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son" (Heb. 1:1-2). Jesus not only brought but in fact was God’s full and final revelation. A Samaritan woman declared, "I know that Messiah is coming (He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us" (John 4:25). The expectation of that day, even among the Samaritans, was that Messiah would unfold the full and final revelation of God. The Holy Spirit, through the writer...

Yesterday more allegations came from Jody Brownlow Hice who serves as a U.S. Representative for Georgia’s 10th congressional district since 2015 as he made another huge announcement. He says that yesterday they learned that a forensics examination of a Ware County, GA Dominion Voting Systems machine found votes were switched from President Donald Trump to Joe Biden! LinkJody Hice appeared at a recent press conference hosted by Trump’s attorney Rudy Giuliani. At the 52:30 mark in the video below, John Fredericks shared the news on the War Room with Steve Bannon: LinkJust a few hours earlier attorney Lin Wood also...

Klaus Schwab, the chief proponent of a global project called the “Great Reset,” may be the most influential “intellectual” in the world today. A former member of the UN Advisory Board on Sustainable Development, he is the founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF) that meets annually in the Swiss resort town of Davos. Business Insider explains, “Each year, business leaders and heads of state give lectures and speak on panels about topics ranging from gender equality and venture capital to mental health and climate change.” And as the WEF website states, “The non-profit organization's aim is to engage the...

1 Samuel 17 Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle, and were gathered together at Shochoh, which belongeth to Judah, and pitched between Shochoh and Azekah, in Ephesdammim. And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and pitched by the valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines. And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them. This is the ultimate David and Goliath; the only difference is there are ten Goliaths and...

Despite Attorney General Bill Barr suggesting he had “not seen” widespread voter fraud, a Department of Justice (DOJ) official has said they will continue pursuing “specific and credible allegations.” Barr, according to the Associated Press, disputed President Trump’s “persistent, baseless claims” of voter fraud in the 2020 election. “To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have affected a different outcome in the election,” he said. A DOJ spokesperson however, in a statement to several media outlets, reminded the public that the department had not concluded their investigation. They advised, “The Department will continue to receive...

It’s out in the open for everyone with eyes and ears, not only here in the United States but around the world. The November U.S. Presidential election produced a fraudulent result -- appearing to deliver a defeat for extraordinarily popular and remarkably successful incumbent President Donald Trump and a victory for extraordinarily unimpressive Democrat challenger Joe Biden. Trump drew crowds of 35-40,000 and more at every rally. Biden couldn’t attract more than a few dozen at his public meetings -- none of which could be called rallies. Biden’s handlers decided on a basement strategy early on, recognizing that a discharged...

How Trump Can Make Congress Great Again By leading a majority coalition in 2022, a House Speaker Donald Trump could “Make America Great Again” in ways President Donald Trump could not do. By Andrew Cairns December 2, 2020 Although at the time of this writing it is far from certain, it nevertheless seems likely that President Trump’s supporters will be robbed of all the joy from his record-smashing, poll-obliterating electoral performance in November—a performance that inexplicably lifted every “toss-up” Republican boat from sea to shining sea except his own. Despite Trump’s garnering nearly 11 million more votes than in 2016,...

What if the so-called deep state, as characterized by the recent activities of two, out of many, U.S. federal government agencies, is much deeper than we can all believe? Of late, exceedingly troubling developments have emerged. The CIA, created under the National Security Act of 1947, was never supposed to spy on American citizens. Its mission was “to collect, analyze, evaluate, and disseminate foreign intelligence to assist the President and senior U.S. government policymakers in making decisions relating to national security.” A Rogue Agency and Getting WorseIn recent years, in violation of the law, the CIA has spied on American...

After the cheaters who worked through the election night, that in the morning light, declared a president who was not right. They had the dead become voters of the left, this is called theft. Now hope for a new hero to take to the supreme corridors of the court, this fraud they must thwart. May the honors select the president who the people did elect. That foreign powers sought to gain through the weakest link in the chain; they will not profit from dishonest gain, Americans in honor will ever remain. Democrats came up with a deal, let's get real;...
