COLUMN(S) OF THE WEEK
Lt Gen Michael Flynn, US Army retired 8/5
This Is My Letter to America
We are witnessing a vicious assault by enemies of all that
is good, and our president is having to act in ways unprecedented in decades,
maybe centuries. The biblical nature of good versus evil cannot be discounted
as we examine what is happening on the streets of America.
It’s Marxism in the form of antifa and the Black
Lives Matter movement versus our very capable and very underappreciated
law enforcement professionals, the vast majority of whom are fighting to
provide us safe and secure homes, streets and communities. When the destiny of
the United States is at stake, and it is, the very future of the entire world
is threatened.
As Christians, shouldn’t we act? We recognize that divine
Providence is the ultimate judge of our destiny. Achieving our destiny as a
freedom-loving nation, Providence compels us to do our part in our communities.
It encourages us in this battle against the forces of evil to face our fears
head-on. No enemy on earth is stronger than the united forces of God-fearing,
freedom-loving people. We can no longer pretend that these dark forces are
going to go away by mere prayer alone. Prayers matter, but action is
required.
This action is needed at the local, state and federal
levels. Action is also required in the economic, media, clerical and
ecclesiastical realms. Decide how you can act within your abilities. Stand up
and state your beliefs. Be proud of who you are and what you stand for. And
face, head-on, those community “leaders” who are willing to allow dark forces
to go beyond peaceful protests and destroy and violate your safety and
security.
Churches and houses of worship must return to normal. We
invite everyone of goodwill to not shirk their responsibilities and instead act
in a fraternal fashion. If for no other reason or with no other ability, act in
a spirit of charity. We cannot disrespect or disregard natural law along with
our own religious liberties and freedoms.
I am witnessing elderly people lose their connection to all that is good
in their lives: connections to their faith, their families and their individual
freedoms, especially the simple act of attending church, something they’ve
been doing for decades.
Let us not be intimidated or fear those who cry out that we
are in the minority; we are not. Good is always more powerful and will prevail
over evil. However, evil will succeed for a time when good people are divided
from each other and their personal lives — children away from their teachers,
preachers from their congregations, customers from their local businesses. America
will never give in to evil. Americans work together to solve problems. We do
not and should not ever allow anarchy and the evil forces behind it to operate
on any street in our nation.
No one should have to fear for their very life because some
dark, disturbed force is challenged by the very essence of what America stands
for. We are “one nation under God” and it is our individual liberties that
make us strong, not liberties given to our government. Our government has no
liberty unless and until “we the people” say so.
God bless America and let’s stand by everything that was and
is good in our lives, in our communities and in our country. Otherwise, America
as the true North Star for humanity will cease to exist as we know it.
The wholesale intellectual fraud that is “white fragility”
has so infested our culture that Oprah Winfrey, the world’s first female black
billionaire, is criticizing America as hopelessly and intractably racist. For
this we can thank the white liberal academic Robin DiAngelo, whose book “White
Fragility” has become a textbook of liberal orthodoxy and a totem of radical
chic. DiAngelo’s thesis: All white Americans are racist. All white Americans
are a product of white supremacy and are actively or unwittingly complicit in
maintaining this power structure. If you say you are not racist, that is only
proof that you are racist. If you believe you are not racist, same thing. Black
people exist in America only to be oppressed by whites. In DiAngelo’s
worldview, any progress black Americans have made is because white Americans
have allowed such growth as pacifiers.
Is America ruled by white supremacy? US household income by ethnic group; whites come in 17th. How did white
supremacists let that happen? And it is not only the stereotypically successful
Asian groups that out-earn whites. Americans of Lebanese, Turkish, Iranian,
Pakistani, Filipino–the list goes on and on–all make more money than whites.
Then there are the Africans–Ghanian and Nigerian Americans earn more than
whites, too. How can that happen in the land where black lives supposedly don’t
matter?
The
Truth about slavery: So, the United
States and Great Britain are the first countries in the history of the
world to eradicate slavery while influencing others to follow suit. History must be reviewed
allowing for constraints and context of the times. Instrumental use of racism
to forward an agenda has created the dystopia we are currently witnessing. Bob Woodson, civil rights activist in
the 60s and head of the Woodson Center/ 1776 Project says the term “institutional
racism or systemic racism
has no meaning. It’s a ruse!........Is it fair to judge men or a nation by their failings
alone, while ignoring their sacrifice, successes and aspirational ideals?
Of course, none of this matters to progressives. A Marxist state is their goal.
The question is, will conservatives and their leadership stand up for the truth
or bow at the altar of Marx?
Outsiders Like Me Know America Is The Greatest Country In
The World: “The ideology that invaded my
country (Albania) for half a century, tore down monuments and tradition, replaced
freedom with oppression, prohibited freedom of speech, encouraged spying,
swapped hope with terror, and brought famine instead of prosperity, is now
trying to destroy the United States of America.”

The suburbs are the swing constituency in our national

they’d run screaming in the other direction. Unfortunately, Republicans have

COVID
Yale epidemiologist says hydroxychloroquine is 'the key to
defeating COVID-19'
But social
media giants shut down viral video of frontline doctors testifying on the steps
of the Capitol about experience that hydroxychloroquine works. After 20 million views. Mainstream media
declares good news about COVID is “dangerous misinformation”; can’t have that.
Frontline Doctors website host shut them down; had to find
another provider: “American life has
fallen casualty to a massive disinformation campaign. We can speculate on how
this has happened, and why it has continued, but the purpose of the inaugural
White Coat Summit is to empower Americans to stop living in fear. If Americans continue to let so-called
experts and media personalities make their decisions, the great American
experiment of a Constitutional Republic with Representative Democracy, will
cease.”
Analysis of 66 global studies of hydroxychloroquine shows
high effectiveness for early treatment
A distinguished virologist denounces Dr. Fauci: “The “Fauci Strategy” was to keep early
infected patients quarantined at home without treatment until they developed a
shortness of breath and had to be admitted to a hospital…..This was a tragic
mistake by Fauci and FDA Commissioner Dr. Stephen Hahn and it was a mistake
that would cost the lives of thousands of Americans in the days to come.”

Charts Should Land Dr. Fauci in Prison”
Some people who haven’t had COVID-19 could already have some

immunity that develops.”

ARTICLES
Gensert: “I have
written many times that those on the left, because they believe they are on the
side of all that is right and just, are willing to commit any depravity and
injustice to gain the power they need to remake America. Most
Americans, however, do not understand this about the Democrats. People believe
all Americans have only the best intentions and would never deliberately harm
the nation and its citizenry merely to obtain political power. Therefore,
people can only look on with incredulity as Democrats blatantly strive to keep
Democrat-controlled state economies on lockdown -- and, with the help of
teachers unions, keep most schools closed in an attempt to deliberately
immiserate Americans and their families in the hopes their suffering can be
used against Trump.”
It’s not enough that public school teachers and the college
professors who train them are increasingly prone to teaching leftist
absurdities like “2+2=5” or presenting the mendacious 1619 Project as
legitimate American history. Teachers unions are now trying to blackmail the
entire country into meeting a set of leftist political demands for reopening
the schools this fall, using COVID-19 as their excuse.
Are You Sure 'Vote for Joe Biden or We'll Kill You' Is the
Best Campaign Pitch?
Mike Huckabee: “Moderate
Democrats! Walk Away From Your Radical Hate-Filled Party!”
“What is it that makes the very existence of ex-gays so
threatening? And why is there a concerted, worldwide effort to block
professional counseling for those with unwanted same-sex attractions? Before
you think I’m exaggerating, consider these following examples……”
Why don't ex-gays' stories count?
Who killed George Floyd?
The officers charged with his murder may be acquitted. Here’s why.
Qui tacet consentire videtur is the
Latin phrase that means he who remains silent appears to consent. The
Democrats’ silence when asked to condemn Antifa violence is coming through
louder than a deranged Joe Biden outburst on the campaign trail.
https://issuesinsights.com/2020/08/06/no-doubts-now-that-the-democrats-are-part-of-the-riot-problem/
Preview of coming attractions? Venezuela has the world’s highest murder rate
because the police there don’t stop murder unless it helps politics. So long as
homicide doesn’t threaten the power or wealth of the governing party, murders are
largely unsolved and are often committed by the very police who should be
preventing them.
'This is how I use my vacation days from work': Trump
supporters are ready for rallies after quarantine.
“ABC
News tweet about the Oakland incident: ‘Protesters in California set fire to a
courthouse, damaged a police station and assaulted officers after a peaceful
demonstration intensified.’ ‘Intensified’? ‘A peaceful demonstration intensified’?
The Twittersphere loved that one. It brought out everyone’s inner imp. The
Wall Street Journal’s
James Taranto was quick off the mark with a delectable contribution to the
general levity: ‘It became even more intensely peaceful,’ he wrote in response to ABC’s absurd tweet. And
Steve Hayward deserves honorable mention for this gem: ‘If ABC News covered Pearl Harbor:
“Honolulu, Dec. 8: A peaceful flyover by Japanese pilots intensified yesterday…”
Yes America, there is voter fraud. These recent cases prove it.
Institutional Wokeness Is Destroying American Higher
Education
The Choice Before Us:
“It may seem melodramatic, but here is the awful choice we face: the
choice between the spirit of mayhem, burning pigs’ heads, and burning Bibles,
on the one side, and the traditional American spirit that cherishes the rule of
law, free expression, and fructifying engines of prosperity, on the other. This time, we’ve traveled to the very edge of
the abyss. Will we tip over into the furnace or pull back at the last moment
and choose civilization over anarchy? I think we will choose civilization. I
hope so. It could go either way.”

WORDS
“The great desideratum in Government is, so to modify the

the Society to controul one part from invading the rights of another, and at
the same time sufficiently controuled itself, from setting up an interest
adverse to that of the entire Society.”
