Allen West: The Deranged Liberal World Order

By |2023-03-06T11:36:11-05:00July 18th, 2022|

"What you heard from the president today is a clear articulation of the stakes. This is about the future of the liberal world order and we have to stand firm." - Biden administration National Economic Council Director, Brian Deese This quote came during an interview on CNN with Mr. Deese after President Biden responded that the American people would have to endure the exorbitantly high fuel prices as long as the conflagration in Ukraine continues. In essence, what Brian Deese was expressing is what we would say in military vernacular, "embrace the suck." And the “suck” is the liberal world order, better known as the progressive socialist Marxist ideological agenda.

Allen West: Yes, There Is an Invasion on Our Southern Border

By |2023-03-06T11:36:12-05:00July 12th, 2022|

There are two definitions of the word invasion. The first is "an instance of invading a country or region with an armed force.” That is happening in Ukraine. The second definition of an invasion is "an incursion of a large number of people or things into a place of sphere of activity." That is happening here in America. It seems unbelievable that so many are asking for legal opinions and articulations of something so very simple.

The Curious Case of Jose Alba

By |2023-03-06T11:36:12-05:00July 12th, 2022|

This is the upside down, lawless, chaotic, unconstitutional world the left has unleashed upon America. It is planned, intentional, and purposeful.

Allen West: Protecting Democracy From the Democrats

By |2023-03-06T11:36:15-05:00July 6th, 2022|

Let me first begin by stating that America is not a democracy; it is a constitutional republic. Matter of fact, in Article IV, Section 4 of our Constitution, known as the "Guarantee Clause," the federal government is supposed to guarantee to every State in the Union a "Republican form of government." Now, that does not mean a Republican party, but rather the form of governance associated with that of a Republic. As you recall, Benjamin Franklin when asked what form of government the founders created, replied "a republic, if you can keep it."

American Independence

If Americans forget from whence we came, they will not realize where we are. And, someone else will determine where we are heading.

‘By Any Means Necessary’

By |2023-03-06T11:36:16-05:00June 28th, 2022|

The Machiavellian left has fully embraced the mantra of "the ends justify the means." For the leftists in America that results in the belief, "by any means necessary."

Does the Progressive Socialist Left Read the Constitution?

By |2023-03-06T11:36:17-05:00June 28th, 2022|

This is a very tumultuous and critical time in the life cycle of our Constitutional Republic. It was just a few weeks ago that I penned a missive titled "Constitutional Rights vs Ideological Rights” for this conservative platform. Who would have ever thought how quickly that writing would come to fruition? I must admit, after last week's apoplectic meltdowns by the progressive socialist leftists I have to wonder if they have ever read the Constitution of these United States of America?

Allen West: Stand for Election Integrity

By |2023-05-22T22:43:19-04:00June 27th, 2022|

During the 2020 election cycle, we observed unconstitutional actions. Governors and judges in many states like Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Texas to name a few, made unconstitutional changes to election law. As we know, only the legislative branch are empowered to make laws at state and federal levels.

BRIEF: Statement on Coach Kennedy Case

By |2023-03-06T11:55:51-05:00June 27th, 2022|

As the Executive Director of the American Constitutional Rights Union, I commend the US Supreme Court once again for ruling on the side of the Constitution and individual rights. The Coach Kennedy case was a secular humanist and progressive socialist challenge to our very first liberty, the freedom of religion and the free exercise thereof. Coach Kennedy's actions of taking a knee in prayer after HS football games was a personal right. He did not advocate for or seek any state, government, endorsement, nor coerce anyone to enjoin with him. We have distorted the concept of Separation of Church and State, written by Thomas Jefferson in his letter to the Danbury (CT) Baptist convention. Solemn, silent, and solitary individual prayer by anyone in any venue is not a sponsorship of government religion. It is a sacred part of our Judeo-Christian faith heritage which should not be separated from any American citizen.

This We’ll Defend

As American citizens in the world's longest-running Constitutional Republic, what are we willing to defend?
