Bold and Blunt

One of the greatest ways to ensure America stays free and Americans maintain their individual liberties is to fill the halls and offices of government with those who understand the concept of God-given liberties and rights — that is to say, Christians, and those of Judeo-Christian belief. That's a nightmare for the left. But it's really the way to preserve the concept of individualism and limited governance that Founding Fathers gave when they forged this great nation. Adam Josefczyk and his Forge Leadership staff are busily training the next generation of leaders to do just that.

Fully 53 percent of Pew Research Center respondents said there were too few American women in politics. What do you think? What's clear is that there are too few women holding Republican Party offices. When you look at the data and break down the figures, whether it's federal, state or municipal offices, fact is Democrats outnumber Republicans when it comes to women office-holders. This trend needs to change. Rep. Lisa McClain is the House Republican Conference chair and the highest ranking woman in House Republican leadership, and she has quite a bit to say about the state of the nation, the state of Democrats, the state of the leftist attacks on President Donald Trump and more — and all in time for Women's History Month.

Are you one of the millions of Americans who still have questions about what happened on January 6, the day Donald Trump is blamed for causing an uproar at the Capitol? Well, thankfully some have done some deep dive investigative looks at the activities on Capitol Hill that day, and as it turns out — surprise, surprise, wink, wink — the government narrative isn't exactly truthful. Chris Burgard talks about his investigation to find the truth of January 6, and the film he produced that he says clearly shows: this day was a "psychological operation run with military precision" by those who wanted to make sure Donald Trump would never, ever, ever become president.

Miracles do exist. And even though some Christians are torn over believing miracles still exist today, fact is, God does indeed perform miracles regularly, and plenty of evidence shows that to be true. Billy Hallowell has a new documentary called "Investigating the Supernatural: Miracles," and in it, he takes a deep dive journalistic look at claims of medical healings and other such miraculous stories and finds — it's true. God is very much active in the lives of His creations and He does, indeed, perform miracles.

Polls consistently show Ronald Reagan is considered one of America's greatest and favorite presidents and after all these years, it's still easy to understand why: He was the great communicator who looked at America through the rosiest of glasses. He saw the good in people. He saw the good in the nation. And he constantly inspired all to seek the good, no matter their individual circumstances. Today, the political climate is far too divided to expect a unity of any sorts from Washington, D.C. But back in Reagan's day, his leadership helped fuel some of the greatest feats in both politics and foreign affairs. No wonder today's politicians all want to be compared to him. Frank Lavin served with Reagan and says in his "Inside the Reagan White House" that Americans can still learn many lessons from the Gipper that apply today, particularly for those in leadership roles.

Have you ever wondered why communists build such ugly gray cement structures? Or why artwork from leftists seems so very often vulgar and depraved? It's part of their ideology, that's why. There are key psychological reasons that those on the left seek, through culture and art and entertainment, to demonize all that's traditionally regarded as beautiful, as inspirational, as breathtaking. There's a reason Jill Biden, former first lady, offered the world such a bizarre and freaky Christmas show within the supposedly hallowed halls of the White House. Campus Reform editor-in-chief Zachary Marschall talks about the state of American art, from the breaking news perspective of what President Donald Trump is doing with the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

The youth of America are still embracing socialism, according to recent reports. And that's becoming a real problem for American Exceptionalism. After all, if the roots of America's greatness are vested in the idea that individual rights and liberties come from God, and government only serves to protest and preserve those individual rights and liberties, then the opposite — the opposing — view of socialism, which serves the state interests first and foremost, is the big enemy. You can't have individualism and collectivism at the same time. The two are at odds. JT Young, author of "Unprecedented Assault," talks about socialism in America and advises how best to fight it.

Democrats keep making massive political missteps, and if they continue down this path, they won't only lose the midterms -- they'll lose their ability to win leadership posts in Congress and in the White House for years and years to come. That's great news for conservatives. But the question is: Why? Why are Democrats so resistant to embrace even the most common sense and unifying agendas of this Donald Trump presidency, the ones that include cleaning up waste and corruption in budget books? Constitutional conservative Allen West talks about the state of MAGA, of Democrats, of the nation and warns: Democrats worship a false god called Big Government, and they won't embrace America First agendas any time soon.

Everybody knows America's public school systems have fallen in ratings and standards these past years, and are failing to educate children in the ways they need to lead fruitful, prosperous lives. But it's not enough to be aware of the sad state of America's education systems. It's high time to do something about it. If we want an America that's led by people who understand the concept of American Exceptionalism, who recognize the roots of American Exceptionalism, and who know what it takes to win the war against American Exceptionalism -- and keep individual liberties intact for decades to come -- we need to educate the coming generation of leaders to love and cherish America. Nicholas Giordano, as a college professor and media figure, sees first hand how the dumbing down of America has led to a large population of ignoramuses. He has much to say about how to reverse this sad and sorry trend.

Did you hear President Donald Trump's inaugural speech? How about his remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast? In both, Trump spoke openly, bluntly, boldly about the need for America to get back in the faith -- to reclaim the greatness of our country that comes from the Creator. And after four long years of having the previous administration push transgender rights, gay rights, and all things secular, all while hanging the rainbow flag from the White House -- having a president who actively and unabashedly embraces God is not only refreshing; it's a bright shiny ray of sunshine on America's future. God-given rights and liberties are the basic building blocks of American Exceptionalism. Thankfully, faith seems to be surging in America right now, and that all bodes well for the fate of American individualism. Pastor, author, podcaster and public speaker David Fiorazo discusses the crucial links between faith and liberty.
