Fellow Patriot,

Just a quick note to soothe any withdrawal symptoms you may be experiencing without The Patriot Post in your inbox this morning!

Because your Patriot team endures long hours on the frontlines defending American Liberty against relentless assaults from the Left, I require that our editors take a week of leave in August for some respite with their families. This is especially important as most of our crew have children to prepare for the coming school year – whatever that is going to look like this fall. A few of our key folks, Doug Andrews and Christy Chesterton, remain on watch with me during the break, as do our IT and administrative staff.

We operate on a very tight budget, both in terms of manpower and resources, and can’t afford to provide individual staff time off as that would leave us a man down for many weeks throughout the year. Thus, as a group we take a much-needed break from the rigors of publishing deadlines, emerge from the depths of the ideological and cultural battle for the future of our nation, and pause our operations so everyone can recharge, reload and return fully ready to reengage.

A few of our staff, Doug Andrews and Christy Chesterton, will remain on watch with me during the break, and our Right Opinion and Top Headlines sections will be updated on our website throughout the week.

You’ll hear from me again on Wednesday. (If you’re not subscribed to Alexander’s Column, modify your subscription and select that option.)

As always, I want to thank you for partnering with us in support of Liberty. Your steadfast support enables us to secure the promise and blessing of Liberty in our day and extend it to the next generation. There are some simple ways you can assist our effort to spread the Flame of Liberty. To find out more, please click here.

We’ll be back on the regular publication schedule on Monday, August 10.

On behalf of your editors, staff and National Advisory Committee, thank you for standing on so many fronts in defense of Liberty!
