Free Republic

Welcome to the weekend. I come here humbled by the fact that I have been in error and have made mistakes. I am less than perfect, I am less than a Deity. My background is in religious conservatism praying a prayer of "salvation" saying words I had yet to comprehend when I was 13, coming out of being an Anti-Semite which is a hot topic today. A friend of mine approached me last week noting efforts to combat Anti-Semitism in the community and my libertarian radar is up sensing the endgame will be less freedom in this country. In Virginia...

Three Americans killed, two wounded in an Al Qaeda linked Al Shabaab attack on a military base in Kenya today but first..... Iran announcing the removal of all limits on uranium enrichment tonight..... Massive crowds in the hundreds of thousands in the Iranian city of Ahvaz today mourning the assassination of General Qasem Soleimani..... Legislation moving forward in Iraq's parliament that pushes for the withdrawal of US and other foreign forces.... President Trump tonight threatening Iraq with sanctions if it expels US troops from the country. Prime Minister Adil Abdul-Mahdi told lawmakers before the vote that General Soleimani had arrived...

#Impeach Congress creeps Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Adam Schiff and all ‘Progressives’ who enrich political careers by the spreading of noxious lies One perfect meme, currently doing rounds over the Internet, bottom lines the entire Ukraine Joe and Hunter Biden scandal. You can quit with the endless yada, yada, talking heads—including all of those recently being promoted by Fox News and the Drudge report. “When the Democrats Investigate Trump For Over 2 Years; And The Only Thing They Can Uncover Is Their Own Crimes” is exactly what’s happening—proving it is the leaders of the Desperado Democrats who should be impeached.

It's really not the President they hate so much, it's America and the American people they really hate. They hate America Socialist Democrats had a plan to destroy America’s unity as a nation and transform America into a socialist/communist state. They know that when people lack common bonds, (do not share a common language, religion or culture) there is nothing to hold them together. In fact, dividing the culture and language has always been part of the Marxist plan to undermine national sovereignty and establish a global communist government. The plans were laid out by Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx...

It's not just their hatred for the President that drives them; it their hatred of America that drives them Many Americans are wondering why Democrats, a few Romneycrats and the Marxist media are so full of hate for our President. Their hatred for the President is so great that they are willing to burn the country down to get rid of him. Their attempts to overthrow the President through lies and false accusations prove that they are not loyal to America and and don’t give a damn about the people. That shouldn’t surprise anyone because self serving politicians have been...

n my MBA program, I was fortunate to have a practicing psychologist teach a course on management. He used a variety of teaching methods, but one in particular involved discussing and debating case studies. The case studies would present this or that management challenge and we would each present and discuss our solution. When we first started, we were surprised at how easy it was to solve these supposed management dilemmas. We’d confidently explain how we would address these issues and most of the class would agree. “I’ll just make them do this or that.” “I’ll just make them get...

Beto O’Rourke shows us how callous he is when it comes to the lives of babies.

Democrats have cornered the market on the young, the dead, illegals flooding the southern border and the general prison population as a viable voting bloc. Two little words are missing from the trending headline, ‘Bernie Sanders Wants Boston Bomber To Be Allowed to Vote’. The two missing words? “FOR ME!”. But it’s not just Boston Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, whose vote Sanders wants, but the potential votes of some possible 183,000 murderers and 164,000 rapists. In fact, Socialist Sanders, Sugar Daddy Dispenser of Free Stuff for All, wants all convicted U.S. felons, no matter how heinous their crime, to be able...

Socialism is a lot like three-card Monte where the promises of winning are not just exaggerated but impossible Socialism is now a significant component of the reinvented Democratic party gaining momentum and visibility. Recently Democratic Presidental candidate Bernie Sanders held his first campaign rally in Brooklyn, New York amidst a crowd of cheering and enthusiastic supporters many of whom represent the youth and future of America.

The only possible hope for our nation and our lives to find real restoration and revival is admitting to our fatal error and crying out to the God who made us and gave his Son for our redemption. America is being flipped upside down. Most people seem oblivious to it - largely, I think, because life as we know it is now so lightspeed and multifaceted. And everybody has his own set of interests and problems. Generally, if our personal comfort zone and priorities are pretty much in order, we won’t make much noise (or work to make much of...

How far will the Left go to gain power? In his response to the cascade of last-minute accusations of sexual misconduct directed at him, Judge Brett Kavanaugh said: “I understand the passions of the moment. But I would say to those senators, ‘Your words have meaning.’ Millions of Americans listened carefully to you. Given comments like those, is it any surprise that people have been willing to do anything, to make any physical threat against my family, to send any violent email to my wife? To make any kind of allegation against me and against my friends? To blow me...

There are some really small, lightweight concealed pistols that you'd never know someone was packing. For the carrier they sometimes forget they have it on them. One that stands out is the Ruger LCP .380. In the world of self-defense firearms, being discreet is the same as carrying a self-defense blade. You don’t want the bad guy to know that you’re packing. Before going down the path that bigger is better with a full size handgun such as a .45 with knockdown power. Lets consider that you’re still wearing light-weight clothing, so its best to be having the smaller Ruger...

Israel supported opposition military forces in Syria. That story's been published by "Foreign Policy" magazine.... At a February news conference President Trump said that the only reason the United States was in Syria was because of Islamic State.... But the US envoy for Syria, James Jeffrey now says the United States is in Syria because of Islamic State and because of Iranian presence..... Russian Aerospace Forces (Air Force) launched at least seven airstikes in the northern region where the Syrian government offensive is expected..... A key meeting is underway today in Tehran, Iran. Its a summit between the leaders of...

Its Primary Election Day in Arizona and Florida today with the 3-way Republican Senate primary to find a candidate for the fall. Anti-President Trump Republican Jeff Flake is retiring. Conservative candidate Kelli Ward is facing a massive media campaign against her and the vote splitting caused by former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's presence in the race.... There were injuries as rival protests took to the streets in the German city of Chemnitz Monday. One man was killed and two others injured early Sunday in a knife attack with a Syrian and an Iraqi suspect in custody.... Meanwhile Syria was...

South Africa is walking the path of Zimbabwe, as its government has begun to literally steal white farmers’ land. The South African government calls this process “seizure”, yet it’s a confiscation by any metrics, because the farmers are not compensated for their loss. In recent weeks, ahead of planned land seizures by the feral black government, a lot of farmers tried to sell their lands, in a desperate move, yet there are no buyers, obviously, for even more obvious reasons. Since the current South African prez Cyril Ramaphosa assumed office and vowed that his party, the African National Congress(ANC is...

...Instead of its pasta, Red Hen restaurants are now famous for partisanship—and, like most every liberal these days, “panic, ignorance, and malice.” Instead of angry politics, the Virginia location that turned away Sarah Sanders claimed they were doing so based on “moral convictions.” How absurd. Of course, as most now well know, the “moral convictions” of modern liberalism allow for the killing of the most innocent and helpless among us, the legal redefinition of the oldest institution in the history of humanity, the attempted redefinition of gender, the embracing of virtually every sexual perversion imaginable, and so on. In other...

Crocodiles crying for babies in virtue signalling What do, Rachel Maddow, Cardinal Tim Dolan and the omnipresent Hillary Rodham Clinton share in common? Crocodiles crying for babies in virtue signalling how they like all members of the mainstream media dominating prog-left care—“really care”—about children being separated from their parents at border crossings before being locked up in horrifying cages.

The Congressional Black Caucus (a group of 48) has become the front running group in calls for impeaching President Trump. With media reporting near constantly that the president is a racist, it is to be expected that a few folk fall for it, but for elected politicians to bury into this seems a tad ridiculous. Is there a deeper motive behind their strengthening opposition? The black unemployment rate has dropped to a level that (if it continues) will eventually be at the same rate as the rest of America. Jobs are coming back to the U.S., the economy is looking...

Does anyone believe that the fake ABC and CNN hit pieces on Trump were the result of overzealous fairness? If it weren’t so outrageous, this would be funny . . . On Brian Stelter’s CNN show this morning, during a discussion of the spate of MSM misreporting of stories in a way unfavorable to President Trump, guest David Frum actually said: “The worst mistakes that press organizations have made in the coverage of Trump has precisely occurred in their effort, their overzealous effort, to be fair to the President.” Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Hang in there, Al baby! That’s Chris Matthews’ message to embattled Senator Al Franken. Despite many of his fellow Dem senators and the head of the DNC calling for Al’s head over allegations of sexual misconduct, Matthews, on this evening’s Hardball, encouraged Franken not to cave—at least not right away. Excerpts: “Now here’s the question. What does he got to gain in quitting? Why isn’t in his interest to say, you know what? I’m going home this holiday season and I’ll think about it . . . The reason I say this is, won’t he regret any impulsive decision? ....
