that the south should have won the civil war and that that the 17th amendment was a horrible mistake.

We’re at a crossroads.

Those of us who appreciate, still believe in and are proud of what this republic was created to be.

Those who were taught to detest those things and desire to make this land fly under the banner of a different meaning.

I certainly know who I hope emerges victorious but I (sadly) can’t say at this point I know who will emerge victorious.

What’s sobering and has been discussed before in other threads: It does not take a majority to decide the future for everyone.

Don 't Let Them Steal Your Joy.


We are AMERICA

All of us.

As believers we know and understand the coming but till then live and enjoy God's great creation. That includes us. I believe we have many years left as a nation. People come and go, but our nation will stand. That is what I truly believe.

Happy Independence Day

Celebrate life

Great post. I still have a few acquaintances on the left that have not kicked me out of their circles. They are already sharing upside down flags on their social media, talking about how horrible this country is, etc.

If you would have told me 40 years ago this would be prominent, I would have never believed it. Scary part is, they have a media that pushes this as well.

But nothing is scarier than their current alliance with radical islam and nazis. The left is going to take this country down from within without firing a shot if we keep on this pace.

#truth

quote:

Here's something all Americans need to understand. When you hear people speak about the societal benefits of socialism, communism and Marxism they either are purposefully lying or they're grossly ignorant of history.

Socialism, communism and Marxism are incestuous bedfellows and nothing good comes from any of these poisonous ideologies.

We’re blessed in many ways as the greatest economic and military power on the planet.
For those that love diversity, we’re also the most diverse.

We’ve lost our way spiritually as the line between our founding as a Christian nation widens. I wish we could find a way to get closer to that christian foundation but we keep electing people who don’t support that.

I will say that one encouraging thing is that there appears to be robust conservativism amongst the youngest generation right now. The Charlie Kirk videos were filled with red hats. The crowds celebrating the soccer win were huge all over the country. Thousands of people in all the major metro areas. Youtube is filled with Americans sharing foreign soccer fans being amazed at America. I think a civil solution is not possible at this point but I am hopeful that these patriotic people will answer the call.

The United States is on strong economic footing and it does seem like our industrial base is being revitalized

If we can manage to avoid more stupid foreign conflicts and adopt a real America first plan we should be solid for the rest of the century.
