“The goal of socialism is communism.” —Vladimir Lenin

“It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated, to impose its law (Sharia) on all nations and to extend its power to the entire planet.” —Hasan al-Banna, Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, 1928

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” —Omar M. Ahmad, Chairman of the Board, Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), 4 July 1998, San Ramon Valley Herald.

“If we are practicing Muslims, we are above the law of the land.” —Herman Mustafa Carroll, Executive Director, CAIR Dallas-Fort Worth, Muslim Capitol Day, 31 January 2013, Austin, Texas.

“Islam is the solution for the whole world. Islam is the solution for the mischief and corruption that is manifesting everywhere. Islam is the solution.” —Ayman Aishat, CAIR, Director of Mosque Engagement, 17 July 2026.

As you are reading this missive, consider that next Wednesday we will affirmatively know on which ideological direction our nation has decided to embark. We have seen indicators of this, unfortunately, in places like New York City, where the embodiment of the Marxist/Islamist unholy alliance was elected as mayor, Zohran Mamdani. In many of our major urban population centers, we have witnessed the rise of Marxist ideological governance, and some states as well. There is even evidence of Islamist domination in some American cities. Dearborn, Michigan, of course comes to mind.

If you have not voted, then consider the words of the Marxists/Islamists themselves. This midterm election is less about political parties. It is rather about an ideological direction this Republic could take. It is about the essence of America: individual rights, freedoms, and liberties surviving and continuing on towards America 300. This midterm election cycle is a referendum on the founding principle of individual sovereignty over the institution of government. It will determine whether we will submit to the ideals of collective subjugation or, as Mamdani described it, “the warmth of collectivism.”

The first stand America must make in this seminal ideological conflagration will be at the ballot box. Early voting is winding down, and the turnout to this point has been tremendous. Election Day is coming, and I must admonish true patriotic constitutional conservatives to get out, vote, and ensure you are supporting those critical down-ballot races as well. Too often we cede local control to leftists. Remember the sage words of former Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill: “All politics is local.” We need to develop a strong bench at the county and municipal levels, and please, do not forget the critical aspect of constitutional jurists and district attorneys. This is something that George Soros and the left have been laser-focused on undermining: our rule of law, replacing principled jurisprudence with activist judges.

In these coming years, election cycles, it is imperative that America seeks out courageous, competent, resolute, committed, humble statesmen and women. The days of weak politicians being elevated into positions of governance have to end, that is, if we are to defeat the maniacal and delusional acolytes of the Marxist/Islamist alliance. If we fail, then we will accelerate our pace toward devolving into what we see in Western Europe. Amazingly, the nations of Eastern Europe rejected the cancel culture and radicalism of leftism along with the deadly invasion of Islamic jihadism and its four phases of invasion: migration, population, agitation, and domination. Western Europe is well into the agitation phase, and we here in America are entering that phase.

Be advised: regardless of the results of the midterm election cycle, the Marxist/Islamist alliance will not relent, and if they are victorious, they will be greatly emboldened. That is why their boldness can only be met with the resolve of a Lincoln, the intellect of a Jefferson, the humility and courage of a Washington, and the commitment of a Reagan.

But it all begins with YOU. The Greek philosopher Plato said it best: “One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you shall be governed by your inferiors.” We must seek out those who will support and defend our founding principles and values, who will display the impeccable character to stand as Guardians against the assault on our preeminent philosophy of governance rooted in the classical liberal ideals of John Locke. We need men and women who will restore constitutional governance. Now, yes, there are plenty of faults, failures, and shortcomings with many of those running as Republicans. However, there is little to no chance of pursuing the restoration of our Constitutional Republic under Marxist/Islamist control. They offer no solutions to critical issues, as their only desire is power.

In this final week, perhaps we should be reminded of the sage words of King Solomon in Ecclesiastes 10:2 (New American Standard Bible), “A wise person’s heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish person’s heart directs him toward the left.”

When you ponder the words of Marxists/Islamists, well, I have only one thing to say: don’t be stuck on stupid.

Steadfast and Loyal.
