During this program, I will quote from the article “Nation Writer Labels the Constitution ‘Trash’” by Isaac Schorr, which appeared in National Review on March 4, 2022. The Nation is, quoting their website, “principled and progressive” and “empowers readers to fight for justice and equality for all” in order “to bring about a more democratic and equitable world.” To paraphrase: The Nation is a left-wing, globalist, socialist, and anti-Biblical periodical that works tirelessly for the destruction of our God-given Constitutional liberties by focusing on, and distorting, current issues in order to undermine our social fabric and thus destabilize our country so that most of our citizens will be impoverished and subjugated.
National Review is a neo-con globalist periodical, so I don’t necessarily agree with everything that appears in that publication.
“Elie Mystal, justice correspondent for The Nation, labeled the Constitution “trash” in an appearance on ABC’s The View on Friday.”
“Appearing on the program to promote his new book, Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy’s Guide to the Constitution, Mystal was asked by co-host Ana Navarro-Cárdenas if the Constitution “is a living document,” or a “sacred document.” Mystal responded by declaring that “it’s certainly not sacred, all right, let’s start there. The Constitution is kind of trash.” ”
The US Constitution is a living document in the sense that it is still the Supreme Law of the Land, per Article VI of the Constitution itself: “This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.” It is also a “living document” in the sense that it can be amended, as stated in Article V of the Constitution itself: “The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments.” The second method is called the Convention of States, about which I will comment if I have time. Judges do not amend the Constitution but are bound to adhere to it. Several times the Supreme Court has modified the Constitution, such as the banishment of prayer and Bible reading from public schools and the promotion of sodomy and all forms of sexual depravity. Congress and the president should have ignored these rulings and removed the judges who usurped the position of the legislature by legislating from the bench. Per Article I of the US Constitution, all legislative powers are vested in the congress; per Article III of the US Constitution, judges can be removed from office if they don’t exhibit “good behavior.” Usurping the legislative powers of congress is definitely not “good behavior.”
The US Constitution is not a sacred document, but the principles of the US Constitution are Biblical and thus are sacred, universal, and eternal.
“ “It was written by slavers and colonists and white people who were willing to make deals with slavers and colonists. They didn’t ask anybody that looked like me what they thought about the Constitution,” continued Mystal, who proceeded to do an impression of a 18th century slave weighing in on the document.” ”
It’s true that many of the authors of the US Constitution owned slaves, but many were vehemently opposed to slavery, such as Ben Franklin and John Adams. One delegate to the Constitutional Convention was George Mason of Virginia. He objected to the Constitution and refused to sign it because he felt that it did not provide protection for the individual citizen and gave the federal government ill-defined and over-zealous powers. His objections helped the incorporation of the Bill of Rights as the first ten amendments to the US Constitution. In addition, George Mason, although he owned slaves, opposed the US Constitution because it allowed the slave trade to continue until 1808. George Mason said that “slavery brings the judgment of God down upon a nation.”
Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence but was not present at the Constitutional Convention because he was the ambassador to France at the time. His first draft of the Declaration of Independence abolished slavery, which at the time was legal in the British Empire. Unfortunately, the delegates from South Carolina and Georgia would have never signed the Declaration of Independence if slavery abolition remained in the text. The colonies needed a united front against Great Britain, so Thomas Jefferson removed from the Declaration of Independence the portion calling for slavery’s abolition.
Mr. Mystal’s opposition to slavery is somewhat ironic, since he and his fellow globalist socialist want to make us all slaves.
His ad-hominem attacks on the authors of the US Constitution are most distasteful. He attacks the authors for being who they are, not their ideas. Colonists are simply people who live in a colony rather than the main or mother country. The complexion of one’s skin (dark or light) is irrelevant to any substantive discussion of the issues, unless you are a racist demagogue, such as Mr. Mystal.
“ “In another interview promoting his book Allow Me to Retort, Mystal was asked if he thought the Constitution should be “scrapped altogether.” ”
Such sentiments seem to make him an enemy of the US Constitution. Article VI of the US Constitution itself states: “The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution.” When I took a commission in the US Marine Corps, I took the following oath: "I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."
“In the absence of that emerging [scrapping the Constitution altogether], however, he suggested Americans “interpret our Constitution so that we extend justice and fairness and equality to all, as opposed to whatever the heck we do now.” ”
That is already codified in Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment: “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
Leviticus 19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
Proverbs 24:23 These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
Colossians 3:25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
“Mystal expanded on this point in his Friday appearance on The View, “the very least we can do is ignore what those slavers and colonists and misogynists thought.” ”
Abolishing our Bill of Rights, including freedom of religion, speech, assembly, due process, trial by jury, protection against unreasonable searches and seizures and cruel and unusual punishment, just to name a few?
“Included in his proposed improvements to the Constitution was “no states’ rights when it comes to healthcare, elections, policing, and guns. That’s just better.” ”
In other words, let an all-powerful federal (or global) government control our healthcare, elections, policing, and self-defense. He thinks that is better. Better for whom. We will own nothing, but the elite will own everything, and somehow, we will all be happier. Mr. Mystal wants government to be God. First, the job is not available, and second, unlike God, people are not omniscient (they don’t know everything, not even the CIA or NSA), not omni present (they can’t be everywhere), and they aren’t omnipotent (they can’t do everything).
Mr. Mystal’s proposal to “scrap the US Constitution altogether” is consistent with some famous conservative personalities who call for a Convention of States to revise the Constitution. When our Constitution was written and adopted, almost everyone, including the most highly educated, was a Christian or had strong attachments to Biblical ethics, including the least religious founders such as Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin. Today, most of the highly educated (indoctrinated) are scoffers and mockers. Any Convention of States would soon be taken over by the acolytes of such globalists and America-haters as Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Michael Bloomberg, and George Soros. They would put our Constitution through a paper shredder, and the document they produce would relegate our liberties to nothing more than a distant memory. We have all the mechanism we need to amend the Constitution without destroying it. The Constitutional Convention met to revise the Articles of Confederation but ended up scrapping it. The same thing could happen again with disastrous consequences.
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 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. Romans 3:4 “let God be true, but every man a liar.” John 8:31-32 “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” James Madison, Fourth President of the United States and one of the authors of the US Constitution wrote: “The future and success of America is not in this Constitution, but in the laws of God upon which this Constitution is founded.” "Honor, justice, and humanity, call upon us to hold, and to transmit to our posterity, that liberty which we received from our ancestors. It is not our duty to leave wealth to our children, but it is our duty to leave liberty to them." ~ John Dickinson, known as the "Penman of the Revolution" for his twelve Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania, published individually in 1767 and 1768 and author of the first draft of the Articles of Confederation, the agreement by which the thirteen colonies coordinated their affairs after the Declaration of Independence in 1776 and prior to the ratification of the US Constitution in 1789. If you have a problem with that, the problem is on your end, not ours.
A word of caution to those who have the urge to travel to Washington, DC: based on what happened to the peaceful protestors on January 6, 2021, neither sanity nor Constitutional liberty is observed by local or federal government officials in our nation’s capitol. Washington, DC seems to have fallen to the state described of Babylon in Revelation 18:2 and has “become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” One of these “unclean and hateful birds” could be named “Michael” and spelled Byrd: the killer of Ashli Babbitt. 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. Even an on-scene reporter for the deceitful New York Times seems to admit this. Four people died of violence during the January 6, demonstration: Capitol Offense: “The Ugly Truth Behind the Five Deaths from January 6th and 7th,” by Tayler Hansen, which appeared in his newsletter on January 26, 2022.
Ashli Babbitt, who was callously shot to death by Lt. Michael Byrd of the Capitol Police, and Rosanne Boyland, who, based on video evidence and witness testimony, appears to have been beaten to death by Lila Morris of the Capitol Police, and Benjamin Phillips and Kevin Greeson, who appear to have died as a result of the Capitol Police indiscriminately firing flash grenades into the crowd on January 6. Never forget Benjamin Phillips, Kevin Greeson, Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland, and never cease to work to bring their assailants to justice.

During this program, I will quote from the article “Christian nationalism is rooted in stupid tough-guy misogyny: What would Jesus say?” by Nathaniel Manderson, which appeared in Salon.com on February 20, 2022.
Rev. Nathaniel Manderson was educated at a conservative seminary (Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, M.Div.), trained as a minister, ordained through the American Baptist Churches USA and guided by liberal ideals [pro baby killing and pro sodomy]. He is a self-identified white, working-class poor, Bible believing Christian [his views are closer to those of a Canaanite than they are a Christian]. He received his Masters in Divinity from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. Throughout his professional and ministerial career, he has been a dedicated pastor, counselor, adviser and advocate. As an academic adviser/counselor, he has served first-generation and low-income students that are trying to gain access into higher education for the past 13 years. During his career, he has also stood against his own seminary and spoken out against all forms of the evangelical right-wing political movement [Biblical morality, righteousness, Constitutional liberty and government accountability]. He has sought to speak up for all those that have become disenfranchised by today’s political, spiritual and economic elite.
Founded in 1995, Salon is an independent publication covering news and politics through a progressive [statist, globalist, Godless], nonpartisan editorial lens, alongside our rigorous and inquisitive coverage of culture and entertainment, science and health, and food. Our editorial mission is pro-democracy, pro-equality and justice and pro-truth. We ask and seek to answer in good faith — through original reporting, news analysis, investigations, left-leaning and politically independent commentary, insightful cultural criticism, personal essays and in-depth interviews — big questions, such as: What is the state of democracy in the United States and the world [the USA is a republic, not a democracy]?
As I understand it, Christian nationalism is an idea now widely accepted within the evangelical church that the U.S. is a Christian nation founded upon Christian principles — no matter what it may say in the Constitution. [Article VII done in Convention by the Unanimous Consent of the States present the Seventeenth Day of September in the Year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and Eighty seven and of the Independance of the United States of America the Twelfth] This commitment to the Christian faith, as a nation, is the reason God blessed the U.S. as the greatest nation that ever existed. God will only continue to bless this nation, however, as long as it remains a Christian nation. As America becomes more progressive and increasingly secular in terms of politics, culture and faith, then in this view God will remove his blessing and protection and great evils will befall our nation. [Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Matthew 7:24-27 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.]
This remarkable theory has no connection to any of the teachings of Jesus Christ or his followers, and is completely irrelevant to the Christian faith. I will certainly admit that I have a heart for American idealism. I have officiated at numerous Veterans Day and Memorial Day services, and I have felt the love of country enormously, on those days and all the days in between. None of that, however, has anything to do with Christianity. God does not play favorites when it comes to nations, people or cultures. That entire idea is morally and theologically absurd. [Psalm 33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.]
In truth, Christian nationalism is based not in the Bible or the teachings of Jesus Christ, but on the idea of the traditional American family [That is the Biblical family]. As roles for women have changed [thanks to David Rockefeller, who launched a propaganda campaign to stampede women into the workforce from the underground economy so that the government could tax them, while at the same time introducing large number of new workers into the workforce to keep wages depressed and having the children raised more by the state than by the parents], as divorce becomes more common [Malachi 2:16 “For the Lord God of Israel says That He hates divorce, For it covers one’s garment with violence,” Says the Lord of hosts.“Therefore take heed to your spirit, That you do not deal treacherously.”], as same-sex marriage gains a firmer footing [same-sex marriage is a doctrine from the pit of hell and mocks Jesus Christ himself Mark 10:6-12 But from the beginning of the creation, God ‘made them male and female.’ ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.” In the house His disciples also asked Him again about the same matter. So He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”], and now with the movement for transgender rights and visibility becoming more public [you can’t switch genders Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.], the panic of the Christian nationalists becomes ever more desperate [These perverts are coming to groom our children to be compliant victims of sex predators. I would hope that parents would have the conviction to protect their children from the perversions that Rev. Manderson promotes]. This is where all that rage among evangelicals is coming from.
I'm no tough guy but I am happy to offer a challenge to any of these fake tough guys. Debate me anywhere, anytime. I am truly blue-collar, a member of the American working class. I am a Bible-believing minister and a flaming liberal [an oxymoron if there ever was one; his views are more compatible with Canaanite paganism than they are with Biblical Christianity]. I believe that the Christian nationalist message comes from the devil himself. [His pro-abortion and pro-sodomy views are from the devil.] I am trying to save the name of the Christian faith and to stand up for American idealism. I oppose every part of the hypocritical, fake-populist agenda of the Christian nationalists and their enablers. I double-dog dare any of them, here and now, to stand up and take me on in public debate. Odds are they never will. [I will be happy to take him up on his challenge. Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Romans 16:17-18 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. 2 Peter 2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. Seem to describe Rev. Manderson quite accurately. Be Bereans and ensure that the doctrine of the clergy aligns with the Bible. 1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.]
A word of caution to those who have the urge to travel to Washington, DC: based on what happened to the peaceful protestors on January 6, 2021, neither sanity nor Constitutional liberty is observed by local or federal government officials in our nation’s capitol. Washington, DC seems to have fallen to the state described of Babylon in Revelation 18:2 and has “become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” One of these “unclean and hateful birds” could be named “Michael” and spelled Byrd: the killer of Ashli Babbitt.

I’m recording this program, program 282, which I entitle “Unmasking Child Abuse,” on Wednesday, February 23, 2022. During this program, I will quote from the article “Psychiatrist bans child-masking and 'all forms of child abuse' in his practice,” subtitled 'I will no longer accept your ill-informed, foolish, immature rationalizations for the ongoing abuse of your children,' by Dr. Mark McDonald, a medical doctor, clinical psychiatrist, medical-legal expert, and author of the book United States of Fear: How America Fell Victim to a Mass Delusional Psychosis. Dr. McDonald’s article appeared on the website aflds.org (America’s Frontline Doctors) on February 10, 2022.
If I have time, I will also quote from the article “Chronic Maskitis” by Dr. Vernon Coleman, which appeared on his website. on February 1, 2022. Dr Coleman is a general practitioner principal and a former Professor of Holistic Medical Sciences at the International Open University in Sri Lanka. He has an honorary DSc. He has given evidence to the House of Commons and the House of Lords in the UK. Dr. Coleman is a prolific writer and his work is well respected: “Dr Vernon Coleman is one of our most enlightened, trenchant and sensible dispensers of medical advice.” This quote is from the British Sunday newspaper The Observer, a British newspaper that has a similar editorial bias as its sister newspaper, The Guardian: socialist, globalist, and godless. They frequently promote views opposing those of Dr. Coleman but none-the-less respect the views of Dr. Coleman as being very authoritative and well-reasoned. “Sharpest mind in medical journalism.” This is the opinion of Dr. Coleman by the Daily Star, a daily tabloid newspaper (luridly or vulgarly sensational) published in the United Kingdom. The Daily Star newspaper also frequently promotes views opposing those of Dr. Coleman, but which still respects his expertise.
Forcing children to wear masks is very harmful, both physically and psychologically, which the articles that I will read during this program will affirm, and is a form of child abuse. Jesus referred to crimes against children in the gospel of Mark 9:42, when Jesus said: “whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.” Crimes against children, such as child abuse, are especially egregious because children are so trusting and so defenseless. Even in our corrupt society, if a crime is committed against a child, it is an escalating factor in determining sentencing, which will cause the punishment to be more severe.
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.

During this program, I will expose the totally unjustifiable vote by the baseball writers to deny Curt Schilling induction into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Curt Schilling had a fantastic major league baseball career, as documented by Wikipedia: Curt Schilling helped lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a World Series appearance in 1993, and won championships in 2001 with the Arizona Diamondbacks and in 2004 and 2007 with the Boston Red Sox. Schilling retired with a career postseason record of 11–2, and his .846 postseason winning percentage is a major-league record among pitchers with at least ten decisions.[1] He is a member of the 3,000 strikeout club and has the highest strikeout-to-walk ratio of any of its members. He is tied for third for the most 300-strikeout seasons.[2] Romans 13:7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
Despite this noteworthy performance during a 20-year career, numerous media types despise him because he is a Christian who is outspoken in his affirmation of Biblical morality and United States national sovereignty. I will document this by quoting from two articles: “Former Phillies star absolutely should NOT be in the Hall of Fame” by Gabrielle Starr, which appeared on the website thatballsouttahere.com in December 2021, and “Curt Schilling doesn't deserve to be in the baseball Hall of Fame” by Chris Cwik, which appeared in Yahoo.com on January 17, 2020. I will also insert my comments.
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.

Ashli Babbitt, who was callously shot to death by Lt. Michael Byrd of the Capitol Police, and Rosanne Boyland, who, based on video evidence and witness testimony, appears to have been beaten to death by Lila Morris of the Capitol Police, and Benjamin Phillips and Kevin Greeson, who appear to have died as a result of the Capitol Police indiscriminately firing flash grenades into the crowd on January 6. Never forget Benjamin Phillips, Kevin Greeson, Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland.
The necessity of uniform standards applied equitably is stated numerous times in the Bible:
Leviticus 19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour. Leviticus 19:35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard, in weight, or in measure.
Deuteronomy 1:17; 16:19; No respect of persons.
2 Chronicles 19:7 Wherefore now let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.
Proverbs 24:23 These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
Proverbs 28:21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
Acts 10:34-35 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
Colossians 3:25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
No playing favorites; uniform standards for everyone.
Equal protection of the Laws clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. No State shall … deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
The Baseball Hall of Fame is a private institution and thus free to set, and violate, its own standards of admittance per the First and Fourteenth Amendments that give us the right to peaceably assemble, but if the Baseball Hall of Fame excludes an eminently qualified player for frivolous reasons, it undermines Hall of Fame’s credibility.
Ms. Starr and Mr. Cwik disparage Curt Schilling's character. To show how fallacious their arguments are, I will list the numerous character awards that major league baseball
has bestowed upon Curt Schilling:
Branch Rickey Award (2001) given annually to an individual in Major League Baseball (MLB) in recognition of his exceptional community service from 1992 to 2014. The award was named in honor of former player and executive Branch Rickey, who broke the major league color barrier by signing Jackie Robinson, while president and general manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Rickey also created the Knothole Gang, a charity that allowed children to attend MLB games.
Hutch Award (2001) given annually to an active Major League Baseball (MLB) player who "best exemplifies the fighting spirit and competitive desire" of Fred Hutchinson, by persevering through adversity. The award was created in 1965 in honor of Hutchinson, the former MLB pitcher and manager, who died of lung cancer the previous year.
Lou Gehrig Memorial Award (1995) given annually to a Major League Baseball (MLB) player who best exhibits the character and integrity of Lou Gehrig, both on the field and off it. The award was created by the Phi Delta Theta fraternity in honor of Gehrig, who was a member of the fraternity at Columbia University. It was first presented in 1955, fourteen years after Gehrig's death. The award's purpose is to recognize a player's exemplary contributions in "both his community and philanthropy." The bestowal of the award is overseen by the headquarters of the Phi Delta Theta in Oxford, Ohio, and the name of each winner is inscribed onto the Lou Gehrig Award plaque in the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. It is the only MLB award conferred by a fraternity.
Roberto Clemente Award (2001) given annually to the Major League Baseball (MLB) player who "best exemplifies the game of baseball, sportsmanship, community involvement and the individual's contribution to his team", as voted on by baseball fans and members of the media. It is named for Hall of Fame outfielder Roberto Clemente. Originally known as the Commissioner's Award, it has been presented by the MLB since 1971. In 1973, the award was renamed after Clemente following his death in a plane crash while he was delivering supplies to victims of the Nicaragua earthquake.
2× Sports Illustrated Sportsperson of the Year (2001, 2004) to "the athlete or team whose performance that year most embodies the spirit of sportsmanship and achievement."

I recorded this program, program 280, which I entitle “Misleading Misleaders,” on Thursday, February 10, 2022. During this program, I will shine the light of truth onto the continued disinformation being conveyed by high-ranking politicians, particularly the Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Republican from Kentucky, who slander those citizens who participated in the peaceful demonstration that took place at the US Capitol Building on January 6, 2021. More than one million people participated in that demonstration to protest the blatant fraud that occurred in the 2020 election, exercising their First Amendment rights of freedom of speech, freedom to peacefully assemble, and freedom to petition for a redress of grievances. During the program, I plan to read from a number of articles, but primarily from the article entitled “McConnell calls Jan. 6 a 'violent insurrection,' hits RNC for censure of Cheney, Kinzinger,” by David Jackson, which appeared in USA TODAY on Wed, February 9, 2022. I will be interjecting my comments.
Before I begin, I want to remind us all of Dr. Stan Monteith’s opening statement on his program “Radio Liberty,” which was broadcast on the American Christian Network for many years. Dr. Monteith always opened his program with the following statement: “Reality is usually scoffed at; illusion is usually king. But in the battle for the survival of Western Civilization it will be reality, not illusion or delusion, that will determine what the outcome will be.” Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote an essay entitled “Live Not by Lies,” a philosophy by which we should all conduct our affairs. Jesus said: John 8:32 “ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
A word of caution to those who have the urge to travel to Washington, DC: based on what happened to the peaceful protestors on January 6, 2021, neither sanity nor Constitutional liberty is observed by local or federal government officials in our nation’s capitol. Washington, DC seems to have fallen to the state described of Babylon in Revelation 18:2 and has “become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” One of these “unclean and hateful birds” could be named “Michael” and spelled Byrd: the killer of Ashli Babbitt. 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. Four people died of violence during the January 6, demonstration: Capitol Offense: “The Ugly Truth Behind the Five Deaths from January 6th and 7th,” by Tayler Hansen, which appeared in his newsletter on January 26, 2022.
Ashli Babbitt, who was callously shot to death by Lt. Michael Byrd of the Capitol Police, and Rosanne Boyland, who, based on video evidence and witness testimony, appears to have been beaten to death by the Capitol Police, and Benjamin Phillips and Kevin Greeson, who appear to have died as a result of the Capitol Police indiscriminately firing flash grenades into the crowd on January 6. Never forget Benjamin Phillips, Kevin Greeson, Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland.
I will now read from the article “McConnell calls Jan. 6 a 'violent insurrection,' hits RNC for censure of Cheney, Kinzinger” and insert my comments.
“Spotlighting a widening breach among Republicans, Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell criticized the Republican National Committee on Tuesday for censuring Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, and for suggesting that the Jan. 6 insurrection was "legitimate political discourse."”
““It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent a peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election from one administration to the next," McConnell told reporters. "That’s what it was."”
[By referring to the peaceful protest at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, as an “insurrection,” Mitch McConnell slanders the participants who had their demonstration hijacked by FBI informants and agent provocateurs who perpetrated most of the violence and vandalism, as documented by numerous witness testimonies and video recordings. The January 6 commission, of which US Representatives Cheney, Republican from Wyoming, and Kinzinger, Republican from Illinois, are members, is a partisan ploy by the Democrat Party to portray all opposition as violent and unpatriotic, when it is the Democrats who foment violence (as occurred by BLM and Antifa during 2020) and are unpatriotic by not upholding their oath of office to protect the US Constitution and the God-given Constitutional rights of the citizens, even the citizens who disagree. By Representatives Cheney and Kinzinger participating in the January 6 committee, it gives the stridently partisan investigation a veneer of objectivity and bipartisanship that it does not deserve. The Democrat Party promotes the objectives of the Deep State to place the US under a globalist, socialist dictatorship, and is using the January 6 Committee to portray anyone who contests the blatant voter fraud that occurred during the 2020 elections or who opposes the Biden administration policies as an insurrectionist, providing an excuse to deny these individuals their God-given Constitutional rights. By denying their opposition their rights, the Democrats can effectively silence their opposition and maintain power. The Democrat Party, in its present form, is an evil organization that some call a treasonous, satanic death cult because of its alliance with the globalist Deep State, its continual attack on Biblical Christianity, and its affirmation of abortion and sexual anarchy. The globalist Deep State, especially Republican Deep Staters, hates Donald Trump and his supporters. Representatives Cheney and Kinzinger are especially virulent in their hatred of Donald Trump and his supporters and deserve to be not only censured by, but removed from, the Republican Party.
“NYT: Republicans ‘Decided Not to Participate’ in January 6 Committee” by JOEL B. POLLAK, which appeared in Breitbart.com on 4 Jan 2022. “Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) rejected Republican nominees to the committee. The text of the enabling resolution behind the committee, H.Res. 503, requires that the committee be composed of thirteen members, five of whom “shall” be appointed after consultation with the Minority Leader, i.e. Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). As the Times itself reported last August, Pelosi took the unprecedented step of rejecting two of McCarthy’s five nominees, Reps. Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Jim Banks (R-IN), whereupon McCarthy said that Republicans would no longer participate: Now, the Times reports that Republicans simply chose to boycott the panel, ignoring Pelosi’s move to block GOP members. The Times casts that in a positive light, saying the lack of opposition allows the panel’s secretive investigation to operate: Several lawsuits against the panel note that Pelosi’s exclusion of Republican members — aside from the only two who would participate, due to their hatred of Trump — violate H.Res. 503 and therefore invalidate the panel’s subpoenas and activities.”
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 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. James Madison, Fourth President of the United States and one of the authors of the US Constitution wrote: “The future and success of America is not in this Constitution, but in the laws of God upon which this Constitution is founded.”

I recorded this program, program 279, which I entitle “Justice Suppressed,” on Wednesday, February 2, 2022. During this program, I revisited the deaths of several of the peaceful protestors who exercised their First Amendment rights of freedom of speech, freedom to peacefully assemble, and freedom to petition for a redress of grievances at the US Capitol Building on January 6, 2021, because of the blatant fraud that occurred during the 2020 election.
Dr. Stan Monteith always opened on his program “Radio Liberty,” which was broadcast on the American Christian Network for many years, with the following statement: “Reality is usually scoffed at; illusion is usually king.

During this program, I read from the article entitled:
Capitol Offense: “The Ugly Truth Behind the Five Deaths from January 6th and 7th,” by Tayler Hansen, which appeared in his newsletter on January 26, 2022.
I also read from the article entitled “The Radicalization of Kevin Greeson,” How one man went from attending President Barack Obama’s inauguration to dying in the mob protesting Donald Trump’s election loss during the Capitol insurrection.
by Connor Sheets, AL.com, which appeared in ProPublica.org on Jan. 15, 2021.

Besides the murders of Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland, two other people were murdered: Benjamin Phillips and Kevin Greeson. The murderers of these innocent citizens need to be arrested and prosecuted.

This program is being recorded on Thursday, January 27, 2022, five days after the 49th anniversary of the infamous Roe v Wade decision that abolished all laws throughout the United States that restricted abortions, thus declaring open season on children in their pre-natal stage of development and exempting abortion providers from liability for the damage done to the mothers. The Roe v Wade decision was one of the most egregious, and anti-Constitutional, rulings of the Supreme Court, rivaling the Dred Scott decision, the Plessy v Ferguson decision, Lawrence v Texas, and Obergefell v Hodges. The Dred Scott decision denied the citizenship of Negros, declared them to be property, and helped precipitate the Civil War of 1861; the Plessy v Ferguson decision affirmed the “separate but equal” policy of segregating white and black children in government schools, condemning black children to substandard educational facilities; Lawrence v Texas abolished all anti-sodomy laws and opened the door to the legitimization of total sexual anarchy; Obergefell v Hodges legitimized same-sex marriage, thus declaring war on reality, undermining the social fabric, and calling Jesus Christ a liar (Mark 10:6-7 from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; 11-12 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery).
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. Abortion is almost a sacrament to the people who control the Democrat Party, a fact that I intend to substantiate during this program based on political and monetary solicitations that I have received from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. Why they would send me such solicitations is puzzling.
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.
Before I continue, I want to remind us all of Dr. Stan Monteith’s opening statement on his program “Radio Liberty,” which was broadcast on the American Christian Network for many years. Dr. Monteith always opened his program with the following statement: “Reality is usually scoffed at; illusion is usually king. But in the battle for the survival of Western Civilization it will be reality, not illusion or delusion, that will determine what the outcome will be.” Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote an essay entitled “Live Not by Lies.” In it, he urged people to always conform to the truth and never go along with lies, even if the consequences were unpleasant or harmful. Solzhenitsyn’s fervent embrace of the truth resulted in him spending 8 years in a gulag in the former Soviet Union and eventually caused him to be exiled. Only if we, as individuals, are willing to stand for the truth no matter what, we will remain free from subjugation. Jesus said: John 8:32 ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
"The Supreme Court recognized that abortion does fall under women's privacy rights.
[My comments: The 14th Amendment reads, in part: “nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” In other words, you can’t be executed, incarcerated, or fined without having your day in court with the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights. I don’t see any “right to privacy,” nor does privacy have anything to do with killing your child. The supreme justices justified their ruling by appealing to a concept they call “emanations from the penumbra.” In other words, they act as dictators with no constraints. This is legislating from the bench and a violation of the Constitution, which limits all legislative powers to the Congress, per Article I, Section 1. Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Kentucky Resolutions of 1798: “in questions of power then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the constitution.” When the judges can conjure “penumbras” to justify their decisions in contradiction of the US Constitution, the Constitution becomes simply a stage prop.]
The justices acknowledged that being forced to continue a pregnancy puts a lot at risk for women, such as:
[My comments Terminating a pregnancy via abortion is also risky for the physical and mental health of the woman. Killing your child will relieve financial burdens but giving the child up for adoption would achieve the same result without the guilt of being responsible for the death of your child via abortion. Abortion increases the risk of breast cancer, as documented in the article “Update on the Abortion-Breast Cancer Link: Lessons Learned from Asia” By Joel Brind, PhD, which was published by afterabortion.org 08/13/19. “In 2013, Hubei Huang et al. published a systematic review and meta-analysis (SRMA) on abortion and breast cancer just in mainland China.[9] In just over two decades (1988 – 2012), there were no less than 36 individual studies on women in China. Huang et al. reporting a statistically significant 44 percent increase in breast cancer risk for women with one or more abortion, which went up to 76 percent for women with two or more abortions, and up to 89 percent increased risk for women with three or more abortions.”]
The Court was skeptical of the state's argument that Constitutional protections begin at conception. The Constitution doesn't provide a definition of a "person." But, it does say that its protections cover those who are "born or naturalized" in the United States. After examining other cases relating to unborn children, the Court concluded that "the unborn have never been recognized in the law as persons in the whole sense."
The Roe v. Wade decision also includes a discussion of the different views on when life begins. Many in the Jewish faith, for example, believe that life begins at birth. But, the prevailing view in the Catholic faith is that life begins at conception. Doctor's views vary, but they tend to lean toward the belief that life begins sometime before birth.
[My comments: The Jewish faith to which the justices refer differs from the Bible. Genesis 25:21-24 And Isaac intreated the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived. And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the Lord. And the Lord said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger. And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Psalm 139:13 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.
Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
Humanism, that the elite are gods, seems to be the religion that is the foundation of the ethics to which the court appealed.]
But, the Court found, it is not up to the states to decide when life begins:
"[W]e do not agree that, by adopting one theory of life, Texas may override the rights of the pregnant woman that are at stake."
[My comments: The court did not have the benefit of ultrasound to reveal the humanity of the child in the prenatal state of development, but they did know, or should have known, that once the egg is fertilized an entirely new and unique human being is created. A human being that has unique DNA from the mother, can have a different blood type, and may be a different gender. Science and the Bible have established once and for all that we are human beings from the moment of conception. We are thus creatures made in God’s image. Genesis 9:6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.]
Sarah Weddington was just 26 years old when she argued before the Supreme Court as one of Roe's attorneys. She was born Sarah Ragle on February 5, 1945, in Abilene, Texas, to Lena Catherine and Herbert Doyle Ragle, a Methodist minister. As a child, she was president of the Methodist youth fellowship at her church, played the organ, and sang in the church choir. In 1967, during her third year of law school, Weddington became pregnant by Ron Weddington and travelled to Mexico for an illegal abortion. She married Ron Weddington in 1968, and they divorced in 1974. She died on December 26, 2021. She aborted her only child.
Weddington first stated her case in front of a three-judge district court in May 1970 in Dallas. The district court agreed that the Texas abortion laws were unconstitutional, but the state appealed the decision, landing it before the United States Supreme Court. Weddington appeared before the Supreme Court in 1971 and again in the fall of 1972. At the time of her first Supreme Court presentation, Weddington was 26 years old and had never tried a legal case. The Court's decision was ultimately handed down in January 1973, overturning Texas’ abortion law by a 7-2 majority and legalizing abortion throughout the United States. Sarah Weddington remains the youngest person ever to have successfully argued a case before the US Supreme Court.
Tax Funded Abortion As Population Control
The legalization of abortion was predicted in a speech by Dr. Richard Day, a former medical director of Planned Parenthood, to a group of physicians in March 1969, nearly four years before Roe v Wade. During his speech, Dr. Day said "Abortion will no longer be a crime." Abortion will be accepted as normal and would be paid for by taxes for people who could not pay for their own abortions. Contraceptives would be made available by tax money so that nobody would have to do without contraceptives. If school sex programs would lead to more pregnancies in children, that was really seen as no problem. Parents who think they are opposed to abortion on moral or religious grounds will change their minds when it is their own child who is pregnant. So this will help overcome opposition to abortion. Before long, only a few die-hards will still refuse to see abortion as acceptable, and they won't matter anymore.
In other words, the powers that shouldn’t be had already determined to legalize abortion. All they needed was a test case, the outcome of which had already been predetermined. The court case was simply theater, and the outcome was as predictable as professional wrestling.
Earlier in the program I said that abortion is almost a sacrament in the Democrat party. To substantiate my contention, I want to read some of the email messages that I have received from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
Justice Sotomayor sounds the alarm on new anti-abortion ruling: “This case is a disaster for the rule of law and a grave disservice to women.” Justice Sotomayor has made it abundantly clear: Reproductive rights are in grave danger. [Roe v Wade was a travesty and contrary to precedent and the foundational principles of the US.]
The Supreme Court is the closest it's ever been to OVERTURNING nearly 50 years of precedent and letting Republicans BAN abortion, and if they succeed, Americans seeking reproductive health care could have their rights stripped away. [Abortion is not health care. Talk about euphemisms.]

I want to remind us all of Dr. Stan Monteith’s opening statement on his program “Radio Liberty,” which was broadcast on the American Christian Network for many years. Dr. Monteith always opened his program with the following statement: “Reality is usually scoffed at; illusion is usually king. But in the battle for the survival of Western Civilization it will be reality, not illusion or delusion, that will determine what the outcome will be.” Alexander Solzhenitsyn wrote an essay entitled “Live Not by Lies.” Jesus said: John 8:32 ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
This program is being recorded on Wednesday, January 19, 2022, two days after the federal holiday honoring the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., for broadcast at a later date. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was a man whose life is currently venerated by contemporary culture as embodying the highest virtues of righteousness and patriotism. The view that Martin Luther King, Jr., was a paragon of morality and righteousness, and that his legacy is one of increased opportunity and success for all, especially for people of color, is a myth that facts and reality refute. I will be reading from a number of sources, but especially from the article:
“Time to Re-Evaluate the Legacy of Martin Luther King” By Vince Everett Ellison, which was published by American Thinker on January 12, 2022. I will often be interspersing my comments.
By calling into question the veneration of Martin Luther King, I do not want anyone to think that I oppose the goal of equal protection of the law that Martin Luther King ostensibly promoted. Equal protection of the law is a Biblical principle found throughout the Bible:
Leviticus 19:15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.
Deuteronomy 1:17 Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's
Deuteronomy 16:19 Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.
2 Chronicles 19:7 Wherefore now let the fear of the Lord be upon you; take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with the Lord our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of gifts.
Proverbs 28:21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
Jesus and the story of the good Samaritan as describe in Luke 10:25-37. The hero of Jesus’ story was a Samaritan, whom the Jews considered to be heretics and foreigners.
Acts 10:34-35 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
Romans 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
James 2:8-9 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
Our foundational documents, the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution (as amended), both support the principle of equal protection under the law. Martin Luther King, Jr., referenced both documents during his “I Have a Dream” speech that he gave at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC in 1963. I will quote a portion of that speech:
“In a sense we have come to our Nation’s Capital to cash a check. When the architects of our great republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.
“This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
I completely support the philosophy about equal protection of the law that Martin Luther King, Jr., stated in his “I Have a Dream” speech. As a Baptist pastor, he should also have referenced the Bible and quoted some applicable verses, some of which I have previously quoted during this program. The fact that the God-mocking, America-hating, globalist media venerates Martin Luther King, Jr., should alert people that Martin Luther King, Jr., was not the Christ-loving, Bible-believing, God-fearing, sin-hating Baptist preacher that many people think he was. Luke 6:26 “Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.”
The second sentence of the Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” In the first draft of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson advocated for the abolition of slavery. Slavery was legal in the British Empire at that time, and Thomas Jefferson considered our movement for independence from Britain to be a convenient opportunity to abolish slavery, but Georgia and South Carolina would have left, and the colonies would no longer be united, so Jefferson had to reluctantly remove his section about slavery abolition from the final draft of the Declaration of Independence.
Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment states, in part: “No State shall … deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
A word of caution to those who have the urge to travel to Washington, DC: based on what happened to the peaceful protestors on January 6, 2021, neither sanity nor Constitutional liberty is observed by local or federal government officials in our nation’s capitol. Washington, DC seems to have fallen to the state described of Babylon in Revelation 18:2 and has “become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” One of these “unclean and hateful birds” could be named “Michael” and spelled Byrd: the killer of Ashli Babbitt. 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, based on video evidence and witness testimony, appears to have been kicked to death by the Capitol Police. Never forget Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland.
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 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. James Madison, Fourth President of the United States and one of the authors of the US Constitution wrote: “The future and success of America is not in this Constitution, but in the laws of God upon which this Constitution is founded.” If you have a problem with that, the problem is on your end, not ours.

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.

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. The vote fraud was obvious and undeniable. The news media, which should have been diligently researching the evidence and striving to ensure that those involved were exposed and held accountable (subjected to criminal prosecution), seems to be an accessory to the fraud by not only ignoring the fraud, but actively disparaging anyone who or any organization that dares to expose the fraud. I will be reading portions of the article “How Christian nationalism drove the insurrection: A religious history of Jan. 6,” subtitled “Fanatical, extreme religious faith wasn't incidental to last year's Capitol assault: It was a central driving force” by KATHRYN JOYCE, which was published by Salon Magazine on January 6, 2022. I will often be interspersing my comments.
Our Constitution, which provides us at the federal level, and guarantees to us at the state level (Article IV, Section 4), a Republican form of government, has designed in it several effective methods for responding to governmental corruption: The First Amendment (specifically, Freedoms of Speech and the Press, and the rights to Peaceably Assemble and Petition for a Redress of Grievances); impeachment of federal civil officers (Article II, Section 4); and free and fair elections to hold accountable, and replace, inept and corrupt government officials. These methods can be described as the soap box (discussion and debate) and the ballot box (free and fair elections). If these peaceful means of redress are stifled, societies become de-stabled, conditions become intolerable, people take to the streets in violent protest, and civil strife, including civil war, becomes likely. If the two peaceful boxes for redress are rendered ineffective, the violent box for redress, the cartridge box, becomes the solution of last resort.
Over one million people met at the US Capitol to peacefully 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, based on video evidence and witness testimony, appears to have been kicked to death by the Capitol Police. Never forget Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland.
A word of caution to those who have the urge to travel to Washington, DC: based on what happened to the peaceful protestors on January 6, 2021, neither sanity nor Constitutional liberty is observed by local or federal government officials in our nation’s capitol. Washington, DC seems to have fallen to the state described of Babylon in Revelation 18:2 and has “become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” One of these “unclean and hateful birds” could be named “Michael” and spelled Byrd; the killer of Ashli Babbitt.
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. James Madison, Fourth President of the United States and one of the authors of the US Constitution wrote: “The future and success of America is not in this Constitution, but in the laws of God upon which this Constitution is founded.” 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.
Before I begin reading the article “How Christian nationalism drove the insurrection: A religious history of Jan. 6,” I want to comment on Salon Magazine. Salon Magazine is a leftist publication. In other words, it is agenda driven to undermine the Biblical foundation of the United States, our individual liberty, and our sovereignty. Since Salon Magazine is agenda driven, rather than truth driven, objectivity and honesty are not important to Salon Magazine, so information contained in Salon Magazine may be inaccurate, incomplete, or distorted. Readers of Salon Magazine should be advised to use the reading technique of people in the Soviet Union: consider it a lie unless proven otherwise.

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.
