Re: An Authentic Biblical and Political Worldview
“Though it has been said a great number of times before, it is nevertheless true that no modern Democrat can be an authentic Christian. The Democrats’ words may sound good, but their actions reveal evil in every instance.” —Nevada
“The prominent secular humanist worldview of today is the religion of those who hate the Western civilization form of constitutional government based on biblical truth. To them, there is nothing absolute except what is created by an oligarchy constituting the one-minded beliefs of a powerful majority. We are close to a voting majority that would willingly give away our liberty-loving Founders’ constitutional republic for a flawed humanist system that surely will lead to chaos, poverty, and tyranny.” —North Carolina
Re: New Jersey’s Anti-ICE Rabble-Rousers
“Until those who obstruct justice and fund this criminal activity are arrested, tried, convicted, and sentenced, the Democrats will just keep on creating chaos to cover their own actions.” —Montana
“Those violent protesters who have been arrested had better receive their due punishment, and it had better include time in the slammer! A clear message must be sent!” —South Carolina
Re: Leftmedia Fumes Over Legal Immigration Clarity
“Applying for a green card has always been the way to legally immigrate to America. My family did it in the 1960s, my son-in-law did it in the ‘70s, and my daughter-in-law did it in 2019. Enforcing the law should not be an arbitrary decision for the Democrats’ convenience.” —California
“It’s very hard to understand how U.S. citizens allow this. Most illegal immigrants receive some mix of federal, state, or local taxpayer living assistance, plus private charity assistance. They’re hired to fill DEI quotas. Their children are ‘natural-born’ citizens. Some are allowed to vote in local elections. Districts are gerrymandered to favor immigrant neighborhoods. All of this is promulgated exclusively by the Democrat Party, and they counter any legal objects with frivolous, baseless claims in the courts — or worse, mass riots.” —Missouri
Re: Left-Wing Rhetoric = Left-Wing Violence
“The violence and dehumanizing language aimed at President Trump, his supporters, and conservatives in general fit the pattern of an incipient communist revolution — they are preparing the public to look the other way while they purge ‘enemies of the people’ and create the culture of fear that leads them to turn in friends and neighbors to be ‘reeducated’ or imprisoned. Our republic is in danger from within. Pray for our nation, and for the repentance of its foes.” —Minnesota
Re: Vance Sets Sights on 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
“My hope is for former VP Mike Pence to run a primary challenge to VP Vance. Pence is much more politically mature than is the current VP and has a decided advantage in likability. One final thought is that Pence’s adherence to the Constitution on J6 informs me that he knows, respects, and understands the U.S. Constitution. On January 6, 2021, Mike Pence gained my undying respect.” —California
“Sounds good, but I’d prefer Marco Rubio. He is more polished and seasoned since his run in 2016.” —New Jersey
“The way to stop the socialist communist takeover is a strong denial of federal funds, exposing fraud with arrests and convictions (good luck with conviction, as the judges are just as corrupt), education of communist results, and enduring the pain of corporations leaving the area.” —Montana
Re: Long-Overdue Scrutiny of Federal Grants on the Agenda
“First, by not capping ‘indirect research costs’ — i.e. overhead — at 15%, you lose any cost control and visibility into the actual research being performed by allowing the performer to hide any and all inefficiencies and bloated administrative costs and dumping them into the nebulous indirect cost pot. Second, nowhere in the Constitution does it state that politicians are allowed to tax American citizens and use the money for the myriad of pet projects politicians use to ingratiate themselves with their constituency. A great way to truly save the money of the taxpayers is to do away with all the grant monies and the bureaucracy required to disburse and track the billions of dollars.” —California
Re: Six Strings and the Chord Your Life Makes
“Thanks for honoring one of our native sons. This was indeed the best commencement speech of the year!” —North Carolina
“Brilliant. On target. Sincere. Human. And from God.” —Massachusetts
“Amid all the endless media churning of political discontent, this was a truly refreshing read — just what I would expect from The Patriot Post. Thanks for the uplift!” —California
