Free Republic

Luke 8:16 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light. How does the head of the Catholic Church come to the center of the Western World and not mention Jesus Christ and how he saves you from sin? This is what happens to everyone who promotes the cult of Marxism, they are overwhelmed and everything else is placed in a lesser position which includes God. It is really pretty sad what has happened to...

If I wanted to surreptitiously prevent an Article V State Amendments Convention, I would plant a seed in the media that state legislatures must submit to congress, identical or near identical applications that deal with a particular topic. For instance, should ten states apply to balance the national budget, and another ten applied to enact congressional term limits, while another ten sought repeal of the 17th Amendment, I would inform congress and the media that only ten of the required thirty-four (two-thirds) applications had been presented. Obviously, this is an easy sell to congress; there is little reason for congress...

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. Ephesians 4:29 KJV How dare FOX News think they are the gatekeepers of who we can and cannot vote for? They are supposed to be an objective observer and reporter of the news and not a judge or jury. They have so lost track of their jobs this election cycle and have become by far the most corrupt news organization in America. They and their ongoing feud with Donald Trump has become an...

Fox in the Grassroots Henhouse: The Perp Sheet The FNC jihad against Donald Trump, grassroots America and their own viewing audience There was a time, not so long ago, when grassroots conservatives believed, rightly or wrongly, that the Fox News Channel was an alternative to the manipulative, often shady ways of the alphabet networks. As of late however, it seems that the VIPs at the network are beginning to more resemble the pigs-turned-human at the end of Orwell's Animal Farm than the friendly alternativnes to the mainstream media clampdown. Even if you consider yourself well informed, some of the...

In a 2001 speech, delivered by Fiorina in Aspen, CO, at the Progress and Freedom Foundation Seventh Annual Summit, she stated the following: “The San Jose Mercury reported: “Hewlett-Packard’s Chief Executive Officer, Carly Fiorina, opened the conference with a scholarly address. She did not give interviews, but she did mention a reporter in her speech—a young guy who couldn’t spell the name of the 19th Century philosopher, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (as in “Hegel you know, the process of Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis? I use it every day,” said Fiorina). (San Jose Mercury 8/27/2001-Jennifer Files reporter). In response to the article...

The possibility of a Donald Trump nomination for the GOP is looking stronger by the day. Barring a completely unforeseen event, he is going to be the likely nominee. He is currently leading in every single state primary poll save two, WI (Walker) and OH (Kasich). Both of these are weeks old, and in both cases you have incumbent favorite son governors. But recent polling from AL, AZ, CA, FL, GA, IA, ID, MO, NC, NV, NH, OR, SC, TX---plus doubtless a couple I've missed---have Trump in the lead. In some cases, the lead is 20 or even 30 points....

Clearly, the GOPe has declared September 15th "Trump Takedown Day". Observe the massing of forces attempting to take out Trump within the last 24 hours, per FR articles: George Will: Walker's internal polls show him ahead of Trump in Iowa-1st choice of 2 time goers Defcon 1: Bill Kristol Threatens Third Party Support If Trump Wins Nom Limbaugh: Fiorina Draws Asignment to Take Down Trump Nate Silver: Trump, Carson Have About 5% Chance Of Winning Gop Nomination Donald Trump, Crony Capitalist NYT/CBS poll: Ben Carson now within four points of Trump, rest of field lags in single digits Wall Street's...

Conservative media frequently features post mortems on the American Republic, why the greatest experiment in free government failed. Our demise is attributed to various causes, but the most common accusation centers on our collective failure to keep the republic. Part I established why the states should immediately gather in an Article V amendments convention to restore the American Republic. The convention could remain a permanent institutional feature of the American governing scene by never adjourning sine die, and resolve to meet, for instance, on a particular day the following year. We have little choice but to press our states to...

Exodus 1:11 NIV 11 So they put slave masters over them to oppress them with forced labor, and they built Pithom and Rameses as store cities for Pharaoh. What happened to the great American melting pot? It has been drained and divided for a political agenda. The Dems have divided America into different groups and factions to fight against the unifying of America to advance their Marxist agenda. They have preached a steady diet of hatred and envy for fifty years and now the violent groups have begun a vicious open season on the fabric of society. The only way...

American style hard tyranny isn't conjecture; it is here and will get worse if we do not reclaim powers stolen from, and rights denied to us by the Uniparty apparatus. Our highest institutions, including the electoral process, have been corrupted to the point they serve ends opposite to those intended, and are therefore incapable of restoring freedom. The question to be answered is, “How shall we reclaim liberty?” We must appeal to first principles, to eternal truths that span time from the Creation to this very moment. One of those truths is that the only legitimate powers of government are...

1) Trump has a single-spaced, 6 page, policy paper on immigration, yet others complain that he has no specifics. What are they offering – some vague promise to “secure the border”, perhaps by adding more ‘sensors’, as if sensors stop vehicles and illegals. 2) The GOP leadership has been DEMANDING that its candidates reach people outside of its white, male, conservative, base. Trump is polling better with women than men. Trump is at 25% of the black vote, the highest for a national Republican in at least 2 generations. Trump is holding his ground with Hispanics. Trump is defeating all...

So, thinking about the constant charge of "narcissism" that is applied to Trump, and trying to explain how that in fact works with his high level of support, I actually did some digging. This is NOT a scholarly study. But here was my methodology. I read minute by minute quotations of Trump's Mobile speech, but did not watch the video of the speech. In New Hampshire, I watched about the first 16 minutes of his speech and recorded every use (and I mean, EVERY use, including repetitions interrupted by applause) of the following terms: Category 1: I/me Category 2: us/we/our...

Our governing system no longer serves its intended purpose, to secure the blessings of liberty. Any casual read of the Constitution reveals our government’s wholesale departure from it. Congress gaffs off or assigns its duties to craft legislation, determine spending, ratify treaties, oversee the executive branch, and regulate the judicial branch. Not being content with rewriting statutes, Scotus increasingly elevates itself above God; its Obergefell v. Hodges ruling is only the latest outrage among many. Executive branch agencies reflect the will of one man, Obama, and not congressional statutes. In response, there is a small but growing minority of Americans...

As long as he's kicking liberal, RINO and GOP-e butt and using his own money to do so, I say go, Trump, GO!! I'm a Cruz fan and don't see how Trump kicking the crap out of our common foe does us any harm. Let him have at it. If he destroys the GOP-e GREAT!! If he destroys el Jebbe and all the other amnesty pimps, GREAT!! If he destroys Hillary in the process, GREAT again!! We've never had it so great. Finally a man comes along and takes the establishment head-on and kicks the crap out of them. Is...

The Supreme Court recently ruled that any State Statute that limits "Marriage" between (1) Man and (1) Woman is void and that States may not so limit the definition of marriage to not include homosexual couples. In effect Kentucky's definition of Marriage as being a union between (1) Man and (1) Woman has been voided and for all intents and purposes it no longer exists.The problem is that if section 402.005 which provides the legal definition of marriage has been ruled void, then any references to the term "Marriage" (including the issuance of Marriage Licenses) no longer have a legal...

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:18-20 KJV Since I was the only pundit who predicted the Trump leads when all the professionals were writing funeral after funeral, let’s take a look at why. He is...

I know why people support Trump. I prefer Cruz. But I will support Trump. Because to promote Conservatism, we must first defeat the: • The GOP "Leadership" • The Establishment • The RINOs • The Wall Street Journal • The Michaels MEDVEDs. Conservativism will only succeed after we defeat these key defenders of Uniparty Statism. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM. TRUMP IS A SOLUTION. I’m not going to debate you, because you practice rhetoric and excuses, just like the rest of the RINO statist defenders. We’ll elect Trump just to stick it to you. You EARNED Trump. Choke on it.

I stand with Kim Davis! I will not comply! Free Republic is and always will remain a pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-constitution, pro-liberty site. The recent SCOTUS ruling against marriage is a travesty against God, country and constitution. It is a shot against Christianity. The government has now officially declared war on Christianity and against individual Christians. Kim Davis is the first casualty who was actually jailed, but will not be the last. The Marxist/fascists have now taken over our government from the top down and will attempt to stomp out all resistance and the black-robed nazi judges will do their...

Trump is conservative on these issues: Pro life since at least 2011, wanted to ban partial birth abortion as far back as 2000. Pro Traditional marriage. "Gay rights is not my thing." Pro capital punishment "Capital punishment isn't uncivilized; murderers living is" Hold Judges accountable Opposes "Common core is a diaster" Teach citizenship, quit "dumbing down". Anti education unions (2000) For school choice "Climate Change is a hoax" "No Cap-and-Tax" For drilling our own. On Environment "Good development enhances the environment" Stressed the importance of a strong family & culture of life (2015) Supports Israel Opposes Iran deal and...

Why Trump? 1. Illegal immigration is the only issue; if it's not stopped soon, America will become like California -- a demographic one-party state. 2. Politics is about name-recognition and none of the other candidates besides Trump has the name recognition to challenge Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton. Therefore, Trump is the only candidate with a chance to win who has promised to do the only thing that matters.
