This program will resume discussing the January 6, 2021 demonstration against the blatant vote fraud that took place during the 2020 election, fraud that was documented by thousands of affidavits and numerous video recordings.  Over one million people met at the US Capitol to protest the loss of one of the most cherished rights: the right to select our political leaders in free and honest elections.  In assembling at the US Capitol on January 6, these people exercised three of the rights guaranteed in the First Amendment: Freedom of Speech, Freedom to Peaceably Assemble, and Freedom to Petition for a Redress of Grievances.  The violence that occurred during the protest on January 6 was nearly all perpetrated by agent provocateurs, FBI informants, or out-of-control Capitol Police.  Two people died of violence during the January 6, demonstration: Ashli Babbitt, who was callously shot to death by Lt. Michael Byrd of the Capitol Police, and Rosanne Boyland, who appears to have been kicked to death by the Capitol Police.  

There are hundreds of people who participated in the protest who have been incarcerated for months in squalid conditions and whose only crime was trespassing in the US Capitol Building.  In many cases, they were entrapped into entering the US Capitol Building by Capitol Police who removed the barriers and invited them to enter.  The tyrants who control our institutions, and their propaganda agents in the legacy media, are attempting to demonize the demonstrators who participated in the January 6 demonstration in order to intimidate the rest of the citizenry so there will be no opposition to the tyrants and their agenda to destroy the liberty and prosperity of the American citizens and to undermine our national sovereignty.  

I met two ladies who traveled to Washington, DC, from the State of Washington.  One lady was born in Communist Vietnam and one lady was born in Communist China.  They could both see that what is happening in the US: the corruption of our institutions (such as the media and education/indoctrination) and the blatant cheating that occurred during the 2020 election, was very similar to what took place in Vietnam and China when the Communists took over.  This reminded of a woman who lived in St. Petersburg, Russia, when Lenin and the Communists took over.  She fled to Cuba, barely able to escape with the clothes on her back.  She worked hard and became very successful, but she had to flee the Communists again in 1959 when Castro took over Cuba.  She came to the US.  A reporter interviewed her, when she was in her 80s, and expressed sorrow for her, since she twice lost everything for which she had worked, fleeing for her life when the Communists took control.  The woman responded: “Don’t feel sorry for me.  I had places to which I could flee when the Communists took over.  Feel sorry for yourself, because when the Communists take over the US, you will not have anywhere to go.”

Song writer Tommy Collins said that if the student holding the flag dropped it when his class was reciting the Pledge of Allegiance when he was in school, the whole class would lose their right to recess.  Let’s hope that’s all we lose: our right to recess.

I will be reading, and commenting on, two articles that view the events that took place at the US Capitol Building on January 6, 2021 from very different points of view.

The first article is entitled “January 6 Insurrection: One Year Later, Families Are Still Divided,” subtitle “This is what it's like to be the child of a January 6 insurrectionist.”  The article was written BY FORTESA LATIFI, and appeared in teenvogue.com on JANUARY 4, 2022. 

The second article is entitled “THE DEMONIZATION OF ROSANNE BOYLAND BEGINS,” subtitle “Boyland may not have many defenders at this point, but the truth eventually will do the talking for her.” by Julie Kelly, which appeared in American Greatness on Dec 6, 2021.

The program title, Liberty and Posterity, comes from the US Constitution, the preamble of which states that one of the reasons for writing and ratifying the Constitution was to “secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity,” our posterity being our children and descendants not yet born.  As a reminder, on the Liberty and Posterity program, we view all events and activities in relation to reality, truth, and Biblical morality, the same principles stated in the first sentence of the Declaration of Independence that entitle the United States to be separate from, and equal to, other nations: The Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God.  The Laws of Nature are the physical laws by which the physical universe operates (also called reality and truth), and the Laws of Nature’s God are the moral laws of God as specified in the Bible.  If you have a problem with that, the problem is on your end, not ours.

As a disclaimer, politically I am an active member of the Republican Party.  I am pro-life because I support Biblical morality and the US Constitution, which, per the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, guarantees us that our right to life can’t be taken from us without due process of law.  The Democrat Party will not accept people who are pro-life, so I can’t be a Democrat.  I am a Republican, but I am not a party hack.  I took an oath to protect and defend the US Constitution from all enemies, both foreign and domestic, not to advance any particular political organization.  For that reason, I refer to myself as a centrist: I support politically those who support the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence and their underlying principles.
