Today, Inside They Dedicated A New Statue Of Another American Giant, Fredrick Douglas - A Man Born Into Slavery, But Who Knew Instinctively That He Was Not Born A Slave. No Man Is.

To Keep A Man A Slave You Do Much The Same As The Cruel Circus Masters Did To The Elephant Around The Turn Of Last Century. Clamp Heavy Chains Around Their Legs And Stake Them To The Ground. Then Beat And Terrorize Them. After A While You No Longer Even Have To Stake The Chain, The Elephant Gives Up And Just The Mere Rattle Of The Chain Convinces The Elephant There Is No Hope, So They Give Up And Do What Ever It Is The Circus Requires.

Fredrick Douglas Was Lucky Enough To Live In A House Where He Was Taught To Read, Write And Think. He Knew God Did Not Make Men Masters Over Others. Nor Did He Ever Intend Any Man To Impose Unrighteous Dominion Over Another Man Or Beast.

It Is Time We Remind Ourselves Of This Truth Again And Begin To Rise Up Against The Intimidation Before The Handful Of Peanuts From Our New Political Circus Masters Is Considered A Kindness And Not The Symbol Of Evil Cruelty.

In The Building Behind Me, They Are Now Excusing Storing All Data, Phonecalls, Financial Transactions, Geo Tracking On Every American For Our “Safety” While Allowing Anyone To Cross Our Borders Either On Foot Or In Underground Tunnels Without Any Worry Or Consequence.

They Have Not Suspended Or Fired But Promoted Those At The Irs Who Rattled The Chains Of Control To Any Group That Disagreed With Their Policies, And Now After Pushing Misery And Death Through The So Called Arab Spring In Country After Country They Are Plotting A New War With Syria. This Will Bring Death And Destruction The World Over. We Are Told That We Need To Pick Sides And Arm Those Who Are So Far Down The Scale Of Decency That Even Vladimir Putin Asked Americans If They Even Knew That Those We Are Arming Have Literally Eaten Their Enemies On The Battle Field.

The Fact That He Even Needed To Ask That Question, And That Most Have Never Even Seen The Video Of The Commander Of The Rebel Troops On Tv Engaging In This Ungodly Horror, Is An Inditement Of Our Government Officials And Our Media.

I Am Surrounded Today By Some Modern Day Spiritual Giants. All From Different Faiths, Different Backgrounds And Many Different Views. But We All Have One Thing In Common. We Don’t Recognize Our Country Anymore And Because We Know That God Is Just, We Tremble For Our Childrens Future.

We Wonder, Are We Even Worth Defending Anymore? If So, Why? Who Are We? And Will We Even Notice Or Care When The Chain Is Finally Snapped Around Our Legs.

What Will Be Written About Us? The Greatest Generation Has Passed. We Are Who Historians Will Watch.

Will It Be Said That None Called For Justice Not One Pleaded For Truth. They Trusted In Vanity And Spoke Lies. They Concieved Mischief And Brought Forth Iniquity.

What Is It We Even Believe As A People Anymore? Where Did We Get These Ideas That Now Seem So Popular?

Our Forbears Came To These Shores Not For Free Stuff But For Freedom. The Chance To Make Their Own Way, Create A Different Life. They Came Here Because They Knew That God Made Them Free To Make Their Own Way In Life, Take The Risk, Do Their Best And Take Responsibility For Their Own Lives.

They Came Here Because They Wanted To Serve Him In The Way They Believed, Not As They Were Told.

But How Many Care About Our History?

And, Of Those Who Do Care, How Many Really Still Believe?

Some Things Are Worth Believing In:

That The Little Guy Can Make It,

Every Single Life Has Value And Is Worth Living,

That Honor And Integrity Do Matter,

That Justice Will Prevail – If Not In This Life – Then The Next, And God Does Exist

And What We Do In Our Lives Matters.

It Is The Meek And The Humble That Enherit The Earth. Have We Forgotten?

We Have Declared Ourselves Masters Of The Earth,

Spread Our Troops All Over The World,

Taught The World How To Do Banking Like We Do It Here In America,

Even Though, We Cant Even Master Our Own Homes,

Protect Our Neighborhood

And Simply Balance A Check Book.

How Grotesque & Garish We Must Appear To Those Looking In.

I For One Still Believe In The Silly Notion Of Truth, Justice And The American Way. Since Our Founding A Good Percentage Of Our Fellow Citizens Closed Their Eyes To The Civil Rights Of All Americans.

“I’m Okay, I Dont Want To Think Of The Bad Things Going On, I Am Busy, It Doesnt Effect Me, It Can’t Be That Bad, And Even If It Is, I Am Just One Person And What Can I Do About It Anyway?

Nothing Has Changed. Except The Chairs At The Table.

Someone Has Always Been On The Losing End Of The Stick Of Power. Blacks Are The Most Obvious, The Chineese, The Native American But Lets Not Forget The Irish, The Catholics, The Mormons, The Jews And Now It Seems All Those Of Faith That Will Not Conform.

For Those That Think Men Make Progress Collectively, I Warn You, History Teaches: You Couldn’t Be More Wrong.

We Are Redeemed One Man At A Time. There Is No Family Pass Ticket Or Park Hopping Pass To Life. One Ticket, One Life At A Time.

Man Doesn’t Vanquish Hatred Or Bigotry. The Target Keeps Moving. From The Blacks To The Irish. Aethists To Christians.

But As Always There Are A Few Leaders: Ben Franklin, John Quincy Adams, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Abraham Lincoln, Fredrick Douglas, Booker T Washington, Gandhi And Martin Luther King.

They Know That The March Toward Freedom Never Ends, Man Must Be Ever Vigilant And Pray Less With His Lips And More With His Legs.

They Never Forget That Truth, Justice And Freedom Are The Well Spring From Which The Waters Of Mans Civil Rights Come. And So They Must Be Upheld For All Men – Those You Know, Those You Do Not And Maybe More Importantly They Must Be Upheld For Those Who You Do Know But Do Not Like Or Agree With At All.

If They Are Lost For One, In The End They Are Lost For All.

In The Past These Historic Stands, Which We Now Call Civil Rights Movements, Were Done By A Small But Dedicated Portion Of Our Citizens Which Led To Great Shifts In Our Culture.

But Those Movements Always Came From The Same Institutions … The Church.

And Usually Not The Church With The Popular Preacher,

But The One Who Put It On The Line To Tell The People The Truth.

Preachers Like These Men, Who Know That We Are All Born Free, But That Freedom Comes A Great Price,

A Profound Resposibility ...

To Stand Against Injustice, Hatred And Bigotry.

Our Pulpits Have Gone Quiet Out Of Arrogance, Fear And Apathy. Their Faith Is Found In The Wisdom Of Man And Not In The Power Of God.

For Some, Losing Tithing Checks Or The Gold Rolex Watch Has Become More Important Than Losing Mans Freedom.

Whatever The Reason Too Many Are No Longer Willing To Call Evil By Its Name,

There Is No Vision. And When There Is No Vision The People Perish.

I Humbly Suggest To You That Martin Luther King Knew The Answer And He Lost More Than Congregants During His Long March.

Students Are Taught, That His Vision Came From The Ideas Gandhi. Maybe A New Radical 20th Century Progressive Philospher Was The One That Taught Mlk That

“Although We Be Free Of All Men, When We Choose To Make Our Selves Servants To All We Gain The More.”

Let’s Get A Couple Of Things Straight. What Mlk And Gandhi Did Was Not Progressive Or New. It Was An Ancient Idea.

Hollywood, Woodstock Nor The Hippy Culture Was The Source Of Power Of The 1960s Freedom Movement.

God Was.

He Was Leading Those Who Risked Their Lives Over That Bridge In Selma, Not Janice Joplin, Columbia University Or A Labor Union.

It Wasn’t John Lennon That Taught People About Love And Peaceful Resistance, That Job Fell On The Shoulders Of A Jewish Carpenter.

And It Is There That We Will Find The Answers That Will Break The Chains That Are Being Forged For A New Generation Of Slaves.

The Rights That So Many Americans Ignorantly Preach About So Often, Are Not Really Their Rights. They Belong To God And They Are Given To Us For Stewardship. They Are Pretty Important And Obvious. So Obvious That We Used To Say They Were Self Evident.

Meaning That Humans Don’t Need To Be Taught, You Instictively Know That You Have A Right Not To Be Executed Without A Trial, Held Without Charge, Searched Without Warrant Or Spied Upon Without Cause.

The Govenment Is No Longer The Protector Of Those Civil Rights And So We Must Be.

When We Are Told That It Is Okay For The Irs, Epa, Atf, Fbi Or Anyone To Hassle, Threaten Or Intimidate Others Because Of Their Skin Color, Religion Or Political Belief We Stop Being The Country That We All Want To Build

And Start Being The Country The World Should Fear.

The Long Train Of Abuses Regarding These Rights Are The Same Mlk Marched Against And The Very Same Our Dusty Founders Warned Us About Losing.

Men May Make Progress, But Man Never Changes.

Man Loves Power And Money. No Matter The Skin Color, Religion Or Income Level. These Symbols Of Our Nation Make Men Drunk With Power Who Then Justify Their Lust For More By Claiming They Are Public Servants.

The Only Difference Between Las Vegas And Washington Dc Is That At Least Vegas Has The Decency To Admit The Town Is Full Of Hookers And Crooks.

We Must Sober Up And Admit, Too Many Of The Republicans And The Democrats Have Played Us, Lied To Us And Stolen From Us While The Get Away Car Was Driven By The Media. A Media That Can No Longer Claim With A Straight Face The Role Of Journalist.

Journalists Print The Things The Powerful Don’t Want Printed.

What They Do, Is Done By A Public Relations Firm.

Those Pr Firms Will Not Print The Truth About The Average American Who Finds Himself Concerned With The Direction Of Our Country Today. So We Must:

We Are Not Violent,

We Are Not Racist,

We Are Not Anti Immigrant,

We Are Not Anti Government

And We Will Not Be Silent Anymore.

Those Who Wish To Use Unrighteous Dominion Over Mankind Are Not Enemies Of Ours They Are Enemies Of God And He Will Not Be Silent Much Longer Either.

We Will No Longer Accept The Lies, The Corruption, Or The Information And Data Gathering.

It Is Evil.

And We Come Here Today To Send A Message That We Will Surround All Of Those Who Wish To Stand And Break The Cycle Of Corruption.

We Will Use Ourselves As Shields To Protect Those In The System, The Elected Officials Or Whistle Blowers With The Courage To Stand.

We Come Here Today To Respectfully But With The Power Of The Spirit Demand To Be Treated As An Equal Member Of Society.

I Am A Man And I Will Be Treated As Such.

I Answer To Only One King And His Kingdom Will Come, His Will Be Done. We Have Chosen Sides And We Choose God. America As A Nation Must Do The Same As Well.

We Come Today To Declare Our Independence. Reaffirm Our Founding Principles:

We, As A Nation, Acknowledge A Creator;

We Acknowledge That He Gives Certain Natural, Guaranteed Rights To Man;

We Declare That Government Exists Primarily To Protect These Natural, God-Given Rights

He Has Established Right And Wrong

He Is Just And Therefor, Man Must Pay For His Mistakes Either Now On Earth Or Through Gods Justice Later

There Is No Such Thing As Social Justice. Only God Can Balance Things Out

And We Are Not God.

But Honest And Decent Men Can Fight For And Establish Equal Justice

There Is No Such Thing As Collective Salvation

We However Are Going To Be Judged On How We Treat Our Fellow Brothers And Sisters. Thus We Must Serve Them, Help Them With Charity Toward All.

Malice Toward None, Lincoln Said. God Said It Slightly Differently - Vengence Is Mine.

Any One Who Speaks Of Punishing Their Political Enemies In On The Wrong Side. It Is Clearly Evil And We Have A Responsiblitly To Say So.

America It Is Now Your Time To Rise Up And Boldly Declare Those Same Self Evident Truths That Changed The World And Demand That Those Truths Remain The Basis Of Our Laws.

My Civil Rights Will Not Be Trampled, And I Say This Not For Me But For My Children And All Those Who Yearn To Breath Free. Those Who Make Your Apple Products At Foxxcon, Those Who Langish In Prisions In Cuba, North Korea And Venasula.

Those Homosexuals Who Are Stoned To Death In The Streets Of Egypt, Or Iran, While Our So Called Civil Rights Leaders Hold Coffee Clatches With Third Graders In The White House.

We Will Stand Not For Our Job, House Or Income But We Will Standfor Those Immigrants Who Came Her The Right Way And Not Have Their Dreams Destroyed By Increasing Competition At The Lowest Rung Of The Ladder While Keeping The Brightest And Best Minds Out Of The Visa Pool Allowing For Little Competition At The Top.

We Will Not Pervert Womans Rights And Twist It Into A Gross Silent Defense Of Abortion Doctors In Philly And Houston While Turning Our Eyes From The Forgotten Women Who Have Never Had The Civil Right To Walk Alone On A Street Without A Man, Or To Drive A Car In Pakistan Or Saudi Arabia And Even Those Who Now Cower In Fear With Their Faces Covered In States Like Florida, Virginia, New York And Minnisota.

We Will Not Waste Another Second Shadow Boxing The Demons Of The Past When The Fight To End Actual Slavery Is Still Happening Today. Call It What You Will, But Those Who Make Your Ipad In China - Those Who Make Your Cute Little Mao Purses - Are The Very People You Claim To Care So Much About. They Are The Ones Yearning To Breath Free.

And Worse There Is The Oldest Form Of Human Degradation Man Has Ever Known, The Sex Slave Trade That Currently Has In Its Coils Over 2 Million Children. The Biggest Source Of This Evil Is A Wide Open Whole In Our Arizona Border.

We Beg The American People To Wake Up And Help The 8 Year Old Children Being Sold Into Sex Slavery.

The Press May Say How Dare These Men Declare Themselves The Next Martin Luther King Or Civil Rights Leaders.

How Blind To Believe The Civil Rights Movement Ever Ended.

The Civil Rights Movement Never Ends And It Never Will. It Has Been Marching Since The Beginning Of Time. Where Martin Luther King Started Is Where Gandhi Left Off, And Where He Started, Abe Lincoln Left Off And Before That Whitfield All The Way Back To Moses. God Has Not Moved. We Have.

But It Is Never Too Late. We Are Not At The Mercy Of These Events. We Can Alter The Course Of History. We Can Stand Against The Dangerous Arc Of This Story.

But We Need People Who Are Willing To Speak Truth.

The Last Century Was A Century Of Genocide. A Century Where Collectivist, National Socialist, And Communist Evil Rose Up Again And Again… Swallowing Up The Lives Of Millions.

It Happens Every Time Man Says The Collective Is More Important Than The Right Of The Individual. That One Phrase Becomes In The End – Everytime – A Licence To Kill Anyone Deemed Standing In The Way Of Progress.

But Evil Met Its Match. Goodness Eventually Prevailed. People Like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther King Jr. And Lech Walesa And Mother Theresa Awoke The World.

They Gave Their Lives To The Pursuit Of Human Rights. They Took The Side Of Justice Against Injustice, They Held Aloft The Torch Of Freedom To Push Out The Darkness Of Hate.

These Men And Women Lived Difficult Lives. They Often Lived Shortened Lives. They Were Often Born To Relative Privilege, But Willing To Take On Suffering.

They Did Want Not To Martyr Themselves. They Would Have Happily Lived To The End Of Their Natural Lives In Comfort… But To The Righteous, There Is No Comfort When Evil Has Taken Root.

But The Cause Of Human Rights Has Been Taken Over By Organizations Who Share Little With The Individuals Who Led The Movement.

Human Rights Was Once A Cry For Justice. Now It Used As A Threat.

These Organizations Have Become Bullies And Grotesque Parodies Of The Principles They Pretend To Represent.

They Criticize Free Nations And Spare The Unfree. They Denounce Nations Like Israel And America, Who Have High Standards For Freedom, And Leave Alone Nations That Have No Freedom At All. They Are Nearly Comical In Their Double-Standards.

They Are No More Than The Enforcers Or The Attack Dogs Of Those Who Wish To Keep Men Confined In Spaces They Design.

Whatever Moral Force They Once Had Is Spent. Their Time Is Up. And So, We Dismiss Them.

Today, We Take Back The Phrase “Human Rights” And Place It Where It Belongs, As The First Half Of God’s Plan For Humanity. The Second Half Is Responsibility.

If We Want To Be Endowed With Rights – Real Human Rights, We Have To Act With Responsibility. We Must Not Be Comfortable With Rights. We Must Be Comfortable With Responsibility.

Who Will Protect Your Rights Better? A King, President Or You?

Who Will Protect The Truth? A Reporter, A Labor Union Or You?

Who Will Protect And Teach Your Children To Seek Truth? A Textbook Committee, An Education Bureaucrat, Or You?

Did A Commission Of Wise Men Stop The Holocaust? Did A Committee Of Congress End Jim Crow?

No. In Each Case, The Work Was Done By Individuals Who Would Not Abide Convenient Lies.

They Saw Injustice And They Called It Out. They Saw Their Nation Wage War Against A Single Group And They Said “Not In My Name.” They Didn’t Wait For The Conventions Of Society To Catch Up To God’s Laws. They Pushed. They Pressed. And They Were Victorious.

Each Of Us Have Been Waiting For A Leader To Rise From Among Us. And None Have. How Many Have Been Called And Refused To Serve? How Many Must Have Failed To Heed The Call For The Lord To Make It All The Way Down To Us?

I Pray Now That Those Who Have Heard The Call To Rise Up In The Tradition Of Peaceful Resistance Do So Now Before, As It Was With Bonhoeffer, It Is Too Late.

I Beg Those With Eyes And Ears To Heed The Call And Begin To Train Under The Exact System Used By Mlk. Search His Words Out. You Will Find That Your History Professors And Civil Rights Activists Left Out The Real Author Of The Words Of Gandhi, King And Bonhoeffer.

Read Them, Ponder Them And Risk Living Them. Even Though They Will Make You A Target Of The Nsa, Having Your Name On Their List As An Enemy May In The End Be The Way Your Name Is Forever Etched In His Book Of Life.

Pastors, Priests And Rabbis, I Challenge You. What Have You Done With Your Knowledge And Priesthood Power That Those Without Have Not Done This Week. If You Can Not Answer That With Power Every Day, What Does That Say About You?

Average Citizens And College Students. I Challenge You. Martin Luther King Didn’t Take A Class, Get A Certificate And A Bunch Of Permits. He Saw Injustice, Studied Eternal Truths, Excersized Disapline And Marched.

If You Don’t Find A Leader Perhaps It Is Because You Were Meant To Lead.

Christians, I Believe In The Free Market. If Your Preacher Is Too Afraid To Preach It From The Pulpit, Maybe You Should Preach It From The Street Corner. Many Are Called. Will You Answer?

Our Spiritual Body Is Out Of Shape And We Need Intensive Training Right Now.

Get Back To God

And Know That Somethings Are True And Worth Believing In.

The Good Guys Do Win In The End. Evil Does Not Stand Unless Good Men Never Rise Up.

The Time Is Now And We Are The People The World Is Waiting For. We Must Never Stop Being The Shore That Others Can Come To For Shelter And Hope.

But To Do So We Must Reliagn Ourselves With Truth And Rise Up And Stand.

This Is The Vision.

We Must Preach Good Tidings To The Meek, Bind Up The Brokenhearted, And Proclaim Liberty To Those Held Captive. To Declare Vengence Belongs To God And God Alone.

We Must Give Unto Those Who Mourn -- Beauty For Ashes And Water The Trees Of Righteousness.

We Shall Not Perish

I Can’t Help That Most Of Us Don’t Like To Hear The Truth, But Hear It We Must: George Washington Told Us Religion And Morality Are The Only Stable And Lasting Basis Of Individual Life And Public Policy. If We Are To Survive They Must Be Part Of Our Public Policy Rather Than Driven From It

It Is No Longer Enough To Just Be A Good Person, We Must Work To Be The Next Abraham Lincoln Or Martin Luther King. It Is Noble To Strive To Be The Size Of The Bronze Giant They Dedicated This Morning In The Building Behind Me. Fredrick Douglas’ Time Was In The 1800, Kings Time Has Passed. This Is Our Time, This Is The Next Long March Toward Civil Rights And We Shall Overcome.

Stand Without Fear, Lock Arms And Stare Down The Bullies That Wish To Enslave Mankind Yet Again.

Honor, Courage And Love Are What Is Required And They Are Contageous, Spread The Word And Proclaim Liberty Throughout The Land.

"Let Us, Today, Raise A Standard To Which The Wise And Honest Can Repair; The Rest Is In The Hands Of God

The Deep State's NEW plan to backstab Trump

Brandon Bell / Staff | Getty Images

We cannot make the same mistake we made in 2016 — celebrating victory while the deep state plots its next move.

In 2016, Donald Trump shocked the world by defeating Hillary Clinton. Conservatives cheered, believing we’d taken back the reins of our country. But we missed the bigger battle. We failed to recognize the extent of the damage caused by eight years of Barack Obama and decades of progressive entrenchment. The real war isn’t won at the ballot box. It’s being waged against an insidious force embedded deep within our institutions: the administrative state, or the “deep state.”

This isn’t a new problem. America’s founders foresaw it, though they didn’t have a term for “deep state” back in the 1700s. James Madison, in Federalist 48, warned us that combining legislative, executive, and judicial powers in the same hands is “the very definition of tyranny.” Yet today, that’s exactly where we stand. Unelected bureaucrats in agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Energy, and the Department of Justice hold more power than the officials we vote for. They control the levers of government with impunity, dictating policies and stifling change.

This is the fight for the soul of our nation. The founders’ vision of a constitutional republic is under siege.

We’ve felt the consequences of this growing tyranny firsthand. During COVID-19, so-called experts ran our lives, crushing civil liberties under the guise of public safety. Our intelligence agencies and justice system turned into weapons of political warfare, targeting a sitting president and his supporters. Meanwhile, actual criminals were given a pass, turning American cities into lawless war zones.

Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1816 that “the functionaries of every government have propensities to command at will the liberty and property of their constituents.” Today, we see Jefferson’s prophecy fulfilled. The deep state exercises unchecked power over our freedoms, and information itself is controlled by the fourth branch of government: the legacy media.

Even when we win elections, the deep state doesn’t concede defeat. It switches to survival mode. Trump’s first term proved this. Despite a historic mandate to dismantle the bureaucracy, the deep state fought back with everything it had: leaks, investigations, court rulings, and obstruction at every turn. And now, with the possibility of Trump returning to office, the deep state is preparing to do it again.

Progressives are laying out their attack plan — and they’re not even hiding it.

U.S. Rep. Wiley Nickel (D-N.C.) recently boasted about forming a “shadow cabinet” to govern alongside the deep state, regardless of who’s in the White House. Nickel called it “democracy’s insurance policy.” Let’s be clear: This isn’t insurance. It’s sabotage.

They’ll employ a “top down, bottom up, inside out” strategy to overwhelm and collapse any effort to reform the system. From the top, federal judges and shadow officials will block Trump’s every move. Governors in blue states like California and New York are gearing up to resist federal authority. During Trump’s first term, California filed over 100 lawsuits against his administration. Expect more of the same starting January 20.

From the bottom, progressive groups like the American Civil Liberties Union will flood the streets with protesters, much as they did to oppose Trump’s first-term immigration reforms. They’ve refined their tactics since 2016 and are prepared to unleash a wave of civil unrest. These aren’t spontaneous movements; they’re coordinated assaults designed to destabilize the administration.

Finally, from the inside, the deep state will continue its mission of self-preservation. Agencies will drag their feet, leak sensitive information, and undermine policies from within. Their goal is to make everything a chaotic mess, so the heart of their power — the bureaucratic core — remains untouched and grows stronger.

We cannot make the same mistake we made in 2016 — celebrating victory while the deep state plots its next move. Progressives never see themselves as losing. When they’re out of power, they simply shift tactics, pumping more blood into their bureaucratic heart. We may win elections, but the war against the deep state will only intensify. As George Washington warned in his Farewell Address, “Government is not reason, it is not eloquence — it is force; and force, like fire, is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.”

This is the fight for the soul of our nation. The founders’ vision of a constitutional republic is under siege. The deep state has shown us its plan: to govern from the shadows, circumventing the will of the people. But now that the shadows have been exposed, we have a choice. Will we accept this silent tyranny, or will we demand accountability and reclaim our nation’s heart?

The battle is just beginning. We can’t afford to lose.

Drone mystery exposes GLARING government incompetence

Gary Hershorn / Contributor | Getty Images

The drone issue is getting way out of hand.

Earlier this month, Glenn first reported on the mysterious drones stalking the night sky over New Jersey, but the situation is increasingly concerning as the sightings have escalated. Not only have drones been seen across the Northeast Coast, including over New York City, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, but recently, they have been spotted over the night skies of San Diego and other parts of Southern California.

It doesn't take an expert to identify the potential dangers and risks that dozens of undetectable, unidentified six-foot or larger drones pose to national security. Yet, our government's response has been one of unimaginable incompetence, leaving us to speculate on the origin and intention of these drones and wonder in astonishment at the government's ineptitude. Here are three examples of the government's lackluster response to the mystery drones:

Iranian Mothership and Missing Nuclear Warheads

After several weeks of hubbub, New Jersey Representative, Jeff Van Drew gave an interview on Fox News where he claimed that the drones originated from an Iranian "mothership" off the East Coast of the United States. This theory has since been disproven by satellite images, which show that all Iranian drone carriers are far from U.S. shores. Another theory suggests that drones may be equipped with sensors capable of detecting nuclear material and that they are looking for a nuclear warhead that recently went missing! With these apocalyptic theories gaining traction in the absence of any real answer from our government, one can't help but question the motive behind the silence.

Pentagon's Limp Wristed Response

In a recent press conference, national security spokesman John Kirby responded to reporters demanding answers about the government's lack of transparency, which has caused increasing public anxiety. He insisted that the drones did not pose a threat and were not assets of a foreign power, such as from Iran or China--even though he is still uncertain about their identity and origin. He also claimed that many of the sightings were simply misidentifications of normal aircraft.

This lackluster answer has only further inflamed national anxieties and raised even more questions. If the government is unsure of the identity of the drones, how do they know if they are a threat or if they aren't foreign assets? If they aren't foreign, does that mean they are U.S. assets? If so, why not just say so?

The Pentagon has also stated that they are leaving it up to local law enforcement to spearhead the investigation after concluding that these drones pose no threat to any military installation. This has left many feeling like the federal government has turned a blind eye to a serious issue that many Americans are very concerned about.

Where's Pete Buttigieg?

Chip Somodevilla / Staff | Getty Images

We are in the closing weeks of the Biden administration, and with the finish line in sight, Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg probably figured nothing else could go wrong on his watch—but boy was he wrong. As Secretary of Transportation, Buttigieg is in charge of the FAA, the agency responsible for managing all air traffic across the nation. One would think that mysterious, 6-foot-long, seemingly intractable drones are invisible on radar and flying above major cities would pose a serious threat to the myriad of legal aircraft that traverse our skies. Yet, Buttigieg has been silent on the issue, adding another failure to his resume which includes: malfunctioning airplanes, the train derailment in Ohio, and the Baltimore Key Bridge collapse, just to name a few.

Glenn: How Alvin Bragg turned hero Daniel Penny into a villain

Michael M. Santiago / Staff | Getty Images

We cannot allow corrupt institutions to punish those who act to protect life and liberty.

America no longer has a single, shared understanding of justice. Two Americas now exist, each applying justice differently depending on who you are and where you live. One America, ruled by common sense and individual courage, praises heroes who stand up to protect others. The other, driven by political agendas and corrupted institutions, punishes those same heroes for daring to act.

This stark division couldn’t be clearer than in the case of Daniel Penny, the Marine whose trial in New York City this week drew strong reactions from both sides across the divided line of justice.

If we let this slide, we accept a world in which heroes are treated as criminals and the law is a weapon for ideological warfare.

Penny was on a subway train last year when Jordan Neely — a man suffering from severe mental illness and reportedly high on drugs — began threatening passengers, saying, “I’m going to kill you all.” The fear on that subway car was palpable, but nobody moved. Nobody, that is, until Penny did what needed to be done. He took action to protect innocent lives.

In the America many of us used to believe in, Penny’s response would be heralded as heroic. His actions mirrored the courage of Todd Beamer on Flight 93, who, on September 11, 2001, rallied others with the words, “Let’s roll,” to prevent further tragedy. But in New York, courage doesn’t seem to count anymore. There, the system turns heroes into villains.

Penny subdued Neely using a chokehold, intending only to restrain him, not kill him. Tragically, Neely died. Penny, filled with remorse, told the police he never meant to hurt anyone. Yet, instead of being recognized for protecting others from a clear and present threat, Penny stood trial for criminally negligent homicide.

In Alvin Bragg’s New York, justice bends to ideology. The Manhattan district attorney has made a career of weaponizing the law, selectively prosecuting those who don’t fit his narrative. He’s the same prosecutor who twisted legal precedent to go after Donald Trump on business charges no one had ever faced before. Then, he turned his sights on Daniel Penny.

A jury may have acquitted Penny, but what happened in New York City this week isn’t justice. When the rule of law changes depending on the defendant’s identity or the prosecutor's political motives, we’re no longer living in a free country. We’re living in a state where justice is a game, and ordinary Americans are the pawns.

The system failed Jordan Neely

It’s worth asking: Where were activists like Alvin Bragg when Neely was suffering on the streets? Jordan Neely was a tragic figure — a man with a long history of mental illness and over 40 arrests, including violent assaults. The system failed him long before he stepped onto that subway train. Yet rather than confront that uncomfortable truth, Bragg’s office decided to target the man who stepped in to prevent a tragedy.

This isn’t about justice. It’s about power. It’s about advancing a narrative where race and identity matter more than truth and common sense.

It’s time to demand change

The Daniel Penny case — and others like it — is a wake-up call. We cannot allow corrupt institutions to punish those who act to protect life and liberty. Americans must demand an end to politically driven prosecutions, hold DAs like Alvin Bragg accountable, and stand up for the principle that true justice is blind, consistent, and fair.

If we let this slide, we accept a world in which heroes are treated as criminals and the law is a weapon for ideological warfare. It’s time to choose which America we want to live in.

CEO Brian Thompson's killer reveals COWARDICE of the far-left death cult

Jeff Swensen / Stringer | Getty Images

Early on the chilly morning of Wednesday, December 4th, Brian Thompson, CEO of health insurance giant, UnitedHealthcare, was walking through Midtown Manhattan on his way to a company conference. Suddenly, a masked and hooded figure silently allegedly stepped onto the sidewalk behind Thompson, drew a 3-D printed, silenced pistol, and without warning fired multiple shots into Thompson's back before fleeing the scene on an electric bicycle. After a multiple-day manhunt, a 26-year-old lead suspect was arrested at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania after being recognized by an employee.

This was not "vigilante justice." This was cold-blooded murder.

As horrific as the murder of a husband and father in broad daylight in the center of New York City is, the story only gets worse. Even before the murder suspect was arrested, left-wing extremists were already taking to X to call him a "hero" and a "vigilante" who "took matters into his own hands." Even the mainstream media joined in on the glorification, as Glenn pointed out on air recently, going out of the way to show how physically attractive the murder suspect was. This wave of revolting and nihilistic fanfare came in response to the findings of online investigators who surmised the murder suspect's motives to retaliate against healthcare companies for corruption and denied coverage. The murder suspect supposedly underwent a major back surgery that left him with back pain, and some of his internet fans apparently viewed his murder of Thompson as retribution for the mistreatment that he and many other Americans have suffered from healthcare companies.

The murder suspect and his lackeys don't seem to understand that, other than depriving two children of their father right before Christmas, he accomplished nothing.

The murder suspect failed to achieve his goal because he was too cowardly to try.

If the murder suspect's goals were truly to "right the wrongs" of the U.S. healthcare system, he had every tool available to him to do so in a constructive and meaningful manner. He came from a wealthy and prominent family in the Baltimore area, became the valedictorian at a prestigious all-boys prep school, and graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a master's in engineering. Clearly, the murder suspect was intelligent and capable, and if he had put his talent into creating solutions for the healthcare industry, who knows what he could have accomplished?

This is the kind of behavior the far-left idolizes, like communists on college campuses who wear shirts that celebrate the brutal Cuban warlord, Che Guevara. Merchandise celebrating the UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect is already available, including shirts, hoodies, mugs, and even Christmas ornaments. Will they be sporting his face on their T-shirts too?

This macabre behavior does not breed creation, achievement, success, or life. It only brings death and risks more Americans falling into this dangerous paradigm. But we still have a chance to choose life. We just have to wake up and take it.
