Hi there guys and thank you for reading my blog! Life is crazy busy right!? We often get so busy we forget to look up and look around. As a Christ follower, wife, momma of three, and small business owner life is already moving too fast! A moment in my life that caused me to STOP, SLOW DOWN and LOOK UP, was when my dad ran for congress years ago. It was then I realized I had to start speaking up and speaking out about what happens in the world of politics, current events and culture...... and of course throw in a little satire when needed! ;) “Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.” ― Dietrich Bonhoeffer

If you care about preserving Conservatism, you’ll vote for Trump.

I want to get this one thing clear right here, right now: There is NO holding your breath and voting for Trump. Trump IS the right choice for America RIGHT NOW.

After watching Ted Cruz give an absolutely eloquent speech last night about freedom and then telling everyone to “vote their conscience” which is code (or not even code, it’s obvious) for “Never Trump,” I am now certain more than ever Trump is the man for the job. This pious “Never Trump” movement reminds me of the Pharisees and Sadducees in the Bible and Jesus could not stand it, and neither can I! I am getting endless lists of reasons on why these Never Trump’ers are going to “write in” Cruz, or not even vote because of what a “horrible monster” Trump is. I am sure Jesus got a list of reasons why he shouldn’t hang out with the tax collectors, or speak to the woman at the well too. This high minded mentality is destructive and not life-giving at all.

I could get into a theological debate, but instead- I am going to tell you why Trump IS the man for the job and it comes down to ONE issue.

Securing our borders.

So your big issue is Trump is not Pro-life enough, He’s not pro 2nd Amendment enough, he’s too brash, he is this….he is that….he is Not Conservative, he’s a secret Socialist, he’s a narcissist, he’s not a Christian, he won’t support the Constitution…..etc etc etc…..folks, I have heard it all….seriously….I don’t think anyone could tell me something about Trump that I have not already heard. While Republicans and Conservatives are nitpicking over Trumps numerous fallacies our borders remain wide open.

Trump was the first candidate to aggressively confront our horrible illegal immigration catastrophe. He was the first to bet his whole candidacy on doing something about it! Over 300, 000 illegal immigrants come across our borders each year. The majority of these individuals become dependent on our welfare system and enslaved to it. With Hillary as President the nomination of liberal Supreme Court Justices becomes a reality and it’s open borders and Amnesty for all! Those dependent on the government vote Democrat-simple as that. So while Cruz is fantasizing about a 2020 run, four years from now, Conservatives and Republicans will be outnumbered. So much of the American population will be on the government dole that there’s no way a Conservative would EVER be elected into the Oval Office ever again. Every Conservative value you hold dear-gone. There won’t be a fight because our voice will be so drowned out by the majority. You think it’s bad now…you ain’t seen nothing yet! America will be looking like Europe before you will even be able to say ‘Europe,’ Liberal ideology is spellbinding and moves maliciously fast.

If our borders are not secure nothing else matters, it won’t matter. First we must secure our borders. I believe Donald Trump can get this done. Congress has to be moved to secure the border, being one of the top negotiators in our country, I believe Trump holds the skills to get this accomplished.  From here….we begin to take back Conservative ground. I am a Conservative. I hold conservative principles close to my heart. I believe in them, and more importantly I believe they work, I know they do. It is because I am principled in preserving and protecting these values, I am voting for Donald Trump.

How can I say that?!! Cruz believes the opposite and he is “so” principled….nahhh I think when someone opts to break their word and stand in front of millions and declare “Never Trump” to ensure a Hillary victory so that there is a chance at furthering their own political career….”principled” is no more……this is known as selfishness.

I am an American. My loyalty to my country comes before any personal ambition of my own and because of this I will support Trump. It is because I am a Conservative I will vote for Trump. It is because all of my individual liberties matter that I will vote for Trump. This is our last stand as Conservatives. It is our last hope.

If the borders are not secure….we lose it all.

 

 

In Love with a Memory -Guest Column

By Lydia Barbara
Over two hundred years ago this country battled for its freedom. Brave men and women fought for something greater than themselves. They fought for a dream, an aspiration, a belief that they felt within their bones, deep down in their hearts.
I love this country. I love what it stands for, what it reminds people of, what it means to so many. I love that our history is one filled with bravery, honesty, and wrestling against all odds. I love that my heritage is wrapped in men and women leaving everything they had to pursue everything they dreamed of. I love that my days of old are enveloped with people who worked from the ground up, coming from nothing and making something admirable with their lives. I love that the American dream is what this country was known for. I love that patriotism was truly what set us apart, that one’s love for country burned in their spirits as bright and hot as the sun. I love that our foundation was built upon Christian values and beliefs, that the God of this land is the One and Only King, the creator of all things.
As I sat on my back porch and watched the sun set it dawned on me that I am in love with something I never had. I’m madly head over heels with a story I never lived. The America in my mind is no longer the America we found in 1776. The America I see today is not the united force Washington, Adams, Franklin, Jefferson, Hamilton, and Monroe created so long ago. In my lifetime I have never seen a country crowned with brotherhood, yet I picture it so clearly in my mind that I somehow believed it still existed. The America I have known is not filled with unity but rather political correctness, hatred, judgment, anger, confusion, resistance, dishonesty and denial.
When I sing the National Anthem I sing of the America that was, not the America that is. When I look at the mountain on which America the Beautiful was written I look upon a time of old, a song of something I have never seen. When I picture Patriotism I see men and women united in pride in the fact that they are American and that America is the greatest country in the world, but the picture in my mind is not the reality before me. We have forgotten who we are and what we stand for. We have allowed the memory of our forefathers to become tainted and confused. We no longer know why America is great or why being an American is the best title one could have.
I will fight for this country but I now know I fight for a reflection, not the picture itself. I fight for the past, not the present. I believe in what this country was, but question what it is. I love what this country was made of, but hurt for what it has become. I will believe, even if it’s ignorance, that one day the America in my mind becomes the America I see before me.
I am a Christian untied with my forefathers, I am a patriot standing with their memory. I am an American, I too will fight for a dream I feel in my bones and so deep in my heart, just like those men and women in 1776. Thank God for that purple mountain majesty, thank God we are free because of the brave, thank God for the star spangled banner. Thank God we are one nation under God.

No….they are not the same.

I am so over people saying that Trump and Hillary are the same….ummm not in the slightest. For anyone to make the blanket statement that they are the same is straight arrogance. Trump has been living in the private sector his whole life, Hillary on the other hand is a career politician, who has been living off the tax payer dole her whole life. For one to say they know what a Trump presidency looks like is asinine….you can’t know.

We do know though what a Hillary Presidency looks like….scandal….lots and lots of shady scandals.

I thought I’d share this visual I posted on social media earlier today:

#TheyAreNotTheSame #CrookedHillary

Trump.Hillary

To the Never Trumpers…please inform your conscience it’s a Liberal.

To the Never Trumpers “Vote your conscience” crowd……get over yourselves.

You didn’t like the results of the Primary elections held across America so you are now throwing a tantrum. A tantrum that could quite possibly result in

1) A Hillary Presidency and

2) 3-5 Liberal Supreme Court Judges being appointed.

These two things directly affect me, but more than that-they affect my children. Your spoiled brat mentality is now impeding on my children’s future & this momma ain’t having it!

So….you are a Never Trumper, well I am a Never Hillary, did you get that NEVER HILLARY –ever!

Your ‘vote your conscience bull-crap’ is just that….A LOAD of bull crap.

You throwing in a third candidate at the convention is a declaration of a Hillary Presidency.

You are so upset that your candidate didn’t get the delegates needed to clinch the nomination that you’d rather have Hillary than Trump….and that is straight up disgraceful and selfish!

You see….I know what a Hillary Presidency looks like, it’s not just a display of endless pantsuits and a trail of dead bodies following her career, no it is an exact replica of the last 8yrs……

It looks like 50 million & counting Americans living in poverty.

It looks like more & more jobs shipped overseas.

It looks like an even higher corporate tax rate.

It looks like a continued elimination of the middle class.

It looks like the media continuing to report of job increases- when in fact they neglect to count the millions of Americans who have stopped looking for work.

It looks like less sovereignty over all our trade negotiations.

It looks like us continuing to have our asses handed to us by terrorists.

It looks like the vast majority of Americans receiving government assistance.

It looks like more illegal immigration.

It looks like the continued implementation of taking from the ‘haves’ to give to the ‘I’d rather sit on my couch & play video games than get a job’ “have-nots.”

It looks like less religious liberty and more censorship.

It looks like more government intrusion on our 1st, 2nd, 4th,  and 10th,  Amendment Rights.

It looks like more apologizing for being the land of the free and the home of the brave.

It looks like blaming law abiding gun owners and not the mental nut-jobs.

It looks like more tip-toeing around the fact that Radical Islam exists & they want us dead!
It looks like:

Water Gate

Benghazi,

Bergdahl,

Rosengate,

Fast and Furious

Solyndra etc etc etc……..

It looks like the IRS specifically targeting conservatives.

It looks like me like more Black Lives Matter and less All Lives Matter.

It looks like Obamacare.

It looks like Sanctuary Cities.

It looks like the total mismanagement of the VA.

It looks like a whole lot more pleading the 5th on accountability.

It looks like Executive overreach on steroids.

It looks like 3-5 liberal Supreme Court judges being appointed.

It looks like Bill Clinton back in the White House.

It looks like taking money from countries that treat women like animals and execute gays for being gay.

It looks like “Russian Re-set.”

It looks like erased emails….a helluva lot of important erased emails.

It looks like someone who hasn’t driven a car in 25 years saying they know what the average Americans needs are.

It looks like permanent career politicians making decisions they have no business making.

It looks like a bunch of hashtags trying to stop terrorism.

It looks like Bill Clinton, who vacations with convicted pedophile Jeffery Epestein, living again in the White House (This one needed to be repeated, I mean seriously….this should be reason enough people).

So while you fantasize about a third candidate jumping in at the convention, getting the nomination & then winning the General election-Reality is placing Hillary behind the desk in the Oval Office.

Is your conscience cool with this?

If so please remove yourself from the Republican Party….and climb on the Hillary Train….

….oh wait…you’re already on it.

P.S. Inform your conscience it’s a Liberal.

Keepin it real on border security….

First, my thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Brussels. To the friends and families who are mourning the loss of their loved ones -may you find comfort, and in time… peace.

Radical Islamic Terrorism has a monstrous appetite that cannot be quenched. There is no quick fix, no fast remedy, no “counseling” kumbaya session that will resolve our differences. These extremists want you dead, they want your kids dead and everyone who does not believe the way they do =DEAD. Combating a religious ideology is an endless game….without closure.

We as Americans have sat and watched Europe’s borders slowly erode because securing borders is somehow now deemed as “racist.” We have watched political correctness take the lives of those in Paris and now the lives of those in Brussels. We have watched Germany swing open its arms to immigration and in return German women have become victims of rape and are told to cover up, crime has increased and migrants are now suing because they have not received benefits fast enough…..seriously…seriously.

“Let’s be really honest about this: Immigration without assimilation is not immigration; it’s an invasion” –Bobby Jindal. These words couldn’t be more true.

We have also witnessed the loss of life here in America because of our lax enforcement of immigration. Here is a list of just some of those victims whose lives were cut short because our current administration refuses to enforce our immigration laws. At some point under the Obama administration ILLEGAL immigration became the same thing as LEGAL IMMIGRATION…..and I am here to tell you they ARE NOT THE SAME. We have also witnessed the rise of Sanctuary cities, which are places that shelter illegal immigrants, they are breeding grounds for lawbreakers, criminals and those who wish to do us harm -and they should be abolished immediately!

No, it’s not heartless….no it’s not racist, no it’s not inhumane-it’s reclaiming sovereignty and protecting American citizens.

Democrats don’t want the border secure because they want the votes and Establishment Republicans don’t want the border secure either because they want cheaper labor…..

As a mom, I want my kids safe. I want to be able to attend a crowded event without the fear that some loony nut-job isn’t going to go all suicidal crazy. This doesn’t make me racist, heartless or a bigot- it makes me a mom. A mom who will do whatever it takes to keep her children safe and securing the border betters my chances.

When you head to the ballot box this November you’ll have a choice. A choice to vote for someone who will secure our borders, enforce our immigration laws, and reclaim America’s sovereignty, or you can choose someone that will keep playing Russian Roulette with our borders for political gain….

the choice is up to you.
