Read a transcript of Glenn's speech below:

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

Top five executive orders Trump plans to sign

MORRY GASH / Contributor | Getty Images

Donald J. Trump has officially been sworn back into office, and the restoration of America begins today!

Over the weekend, President Trump gave a sneak peek into the tidal wave of executive orders he has promised to sign on day one. Judging by the nature of these orders, it appears that Trump will hit the ground running, making massive strides toward his campaign promises mere hours after being sworn in. While the scope of the 200-plus orders is wide-reaching, there is a special focus on the southern border, the energy crisis, and purging DEI policies from the federal government.

Below we have compiled a list of the top FIVE executive orders that will be on Trump's desk today:

Declare a national emergency at the border

The situation on the U.S.-Mexico border has been in a state of free fall for the past four years as millions of undocumented, illegal immigrants have flooded into our nation. By declaring this crisis a national emergency, Trump will bring the needed attention to the border, as well as free his hands to act decisively.

Designate cartels as terrorist organizations

Drug cartels are responsible for many of the most heinous crimes committed across the border. These cartels are well-organized and run illicit operations including drug and weapon smuggling and human and sex trafficking. Over the past four years, the cartels have begun to establish themselves deeper and deeper in America, as in the case of an apartment complex reportedly being taken over by a Venezuelan cartel in Aurora, Colorado. By labeling these cartels as terrorist organizations, we can begin handling them with the necessary force required to relinquish their hold on American soil.

Resume construction on the border wall

Shortly after taking office, President Biden halted the construction of the border wall, a project that was a staple of Trump's 2016 campaign. Over the past four years, no progress has been made on the mammoth structure designed to help secure our border—but that ends today.

Declare a national energy emergency

During Trump's first term in the Oval Office, America was energy independent, a status quickly lost under Biden. By declaring an energy emergency, Trump plans to cut through miles of red tape and help America tap its bountiful natural energy sources, such as oil and gas. Under Trump, Keystone XL can resume, and new sources of oil and gas can be tapped for the first time, ending our reliance on foreign energy.

Force the federal government to recognize biological sex

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

Flying in the face of the woke ideology that has been permeating the American government for years, Trump will sign an executive order that establishes a government-wide acknowledgment of the gender binary—that is, that there are only two genders, male and female. This will require all government identifications, such as passports and personnel records, to reflect biological reality and end the forced use of "preferred pronouns." It will also end taxpayer-funded transition procedures for members of the military and prisoners.

15 MLK quotes the far-left does NOT want you to read

Hulton Archive / Stringer, Michael Ochs Archives / Stringer | Getty Images

While members of the far-left often herald Martin Luther King Jr. as an emblem of their movement, it is ironic that many of MLK's core values and teachings are at odds with their values. On this day when we honor Martin Luther King Jr., one of America's most articulate and transformational leaders, it is important that we remember his teachings as they truly were, and not what the modern-left would like them to be. Here are 15 of MLK's most impactful quotes the far-left would like you to forget.

MLK was a firm believer in non-violent demonstration, unlike ANTIFA and many of the modern-left movements today. He also taught the motivation behind these non-violent movements should be love, not hate.

1. I have earnestly worked and preached against violent tension, but there is a type of constructive nonviolent tension that is necessary for growth. Just as Socrates felt that it was necessary to create a tension in the mind so that individuals could rise from the bondage of myths and half-truths to the unfettered realm of creative analysis and objective appraisal, we must see the need of having nonviolent gadflies to create the kind of tension in society that will help men to rise from the dark depths of prejudice and racism to the majestic heights of understanding and brotherhood. So, the purpose of direct action is to create a situation so crisis-packed that it will inevitably open the door to negotiation.—Letter from Birmingham Jail, 1963
2. After contemplation, I conclude that this award which I receive on behalf of that movement is a profound recognition that nonviolence is the answer to the crucial political and moral question of our time – the need for man to overcome oppression and violence without resorting to violence and oppression. Civilization and violence are antithetical concepts.—Nobel Prize acceptance speech, 1964
3. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence.—"I Have a Dream" speech, 1963
4. Sooner or later all the people of the world will have to discover a way to live together in peace, and thereby transform this pending cosmic elegy into a creative psalm of brotherhood. If this is to be achieved, man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.—Nobel Prize acceptance speech, 1964
5. I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant.—Nobel Prize acceptance speech, 1964
6. I still believe that one day mankind will bow before the altars of God and be crowned triumphant over war and bloodshed, and nonviolent redemptive good will proclaim the rule of the land. “And the lion and the lamb shall lie down together and every man shall sit under his own vine and fig tree and none shall be afraid.”—Nobel Prize acceptance speech, 1964

MLK believed just laws are derived from God's law alone. He defined unjust laws as those that do not treat all men equally in dignity, as God's law requires. Civil disobedience is only justified when it involves breaking an unjust law in pursuit of moral law, he taught.

7. How does one determine when a law is just or unjust? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law, or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas, an unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal and natural law.—Letter from Birmingham Jail, 1963
8. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust. All segregation statutes are unjust because segregation distorts the soul and damages the personality. It gives the segregator a false sense of superiority and the segregated a false sense of inferiority. To use the words of Martin Buber, the great Jewish philosopher, segregation substitutes an "I - it" relationship for the "I - thou" relationship and ends up relegating persons to the status of things.—Letter from Birmingham Jail, 1963
9. We can never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was "legal" and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was "illegal." It was "illegal" to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler's Germany. But I am sure that if I had lived in Germany during that time, I would have aided and comforted my Jewish brothers even though it was illegal. If I lived in a Communist country today where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, I believe I would openly advocate disobeying these anti-religious laws—Letter from Birmingham Jail, 1963

MLK did NOT hate America. On the contrary, he loved America's founding principles and fought for the equal application rights of principles and America's Judeo-Christian heritage. He was hopeful rather than hateful of the future of America and mankind.

10. So even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."I Have a Dream" speech, 1963
11. One day the South will know that when these disinherited children of God sat down at lunch counters they were in reality standing up for the best in the American dream and the most sacred values in our Judeo-Christian heritage.—Letter from Birmingham Jail, 1963
12. When the architects of our 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 unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.—"I Have a Dream" speech, 1963
13. I accept this award today with an abiding faith in America and an audacious faith in the future of mankind. I refuse to accept despair as the final response to the ambiguities of history. I refuse to accept the idea that the “isness” of man’s present nature makes him morally incapable of reaching up for the eternal “oughtness” that forever confronts him.—Nobel Prize acceptance speech, 1964

Unlike Critical Race Theory and modern leftist movement, MLK fought against applying special privileges to a particular race. Instead, MLK dreamed of both black and white people living together in love and brotherhood as equals.

14. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.—"I Have a Dream" speech, 1963
15. When this happens, and when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, Black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: Free at last. Free at last. Thank God almighty, we are free at last.—"I Have a Dream" speech, 1963

4 ways Biden is SABOTAGING Trump on his way out of office

ROBERTO SCHMIDT / Contributor | Getty Images

President Biden has less than a week left in the White House, but that doesn't mean he's down for the count quite yet.

Next Monday, January 20th, President-elect Trump will be officially sworn into office, marking the beginning of his second term. But after such a bitter and contentious election, the Democrats aren't ready to roll over. Instead, they have been working around the clock to ensure that Trump will face as many obstacles and challenges as possible the minute he is sworn in. These political landmines are designed to sabotage his presidency—at the cost of the well-being of the American people.

Biden's job approval rating currently sits around 38.7 percent, one of the lowest approval ratings of any president, he has nothing to lose from these reckless ploys. Here are four ways Biden and the Left are trying to sabotage Trump:

Pardoning criminals

Andrew Harnik / Staff | Getty Images

In November, President Biden customarily pardoned the Thanksgiving turkey ... along with his son Hunter and dozens of other controversial criminals, including 37 felons on death row. Hunter's 11-year-long blanket immunity sets a dangerous precedent for future presidents, and we may never know the full extent of the Biden family's crimes and corruption.

Destroying U.S. energy

J. David Ake / Contributor | Getty Images

Biden has made several moves that have damaged America's ability to produce its energy independently, including canceling the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office. Earlier this month, Biden signed another order that has dire consequences for the energy sector, effectively blocking any new drilling off the U.S. coast indefinitely. This not only further kneecaps the U.S. oil industry during a time when gas and energy prices are on the rise, but moreover, the way the executive order was written means Trump will have a much harder time undoing it. Thanks, Biden.

Escalating overseas wars

Global Images Ukraine / Contributor | Getty Images

America's involvement with the ongoing war in Ukraine has been tenuous from the beginning, but under Biden, it has escalated to a Cold War-like proxy war. Neither pleas from Americans in need nor threats from Russia have deterred Biden. He has approved countless aid packages sent to Ukraine, totaling billions of dollars. Recently, Biden has decided to up the ante by supplying Ukraine with long-range missiles, despite Putin's warnings that Russia would consider this an act of war. It's almost like Biden wants to start WWIII before handing the reigns over to Trump.

Installing a "shadow cabinet"

For years Glenn has warned of the dangers of the deep state, and its very existence has been denied ... until recently. Shortly after the election Democratic Rep. Wiley Nickel made a disturbing speech on the House floor where he proposed the creation of a "Shadow Cabinet" designed to hamper the Trump administration and to step in if Trump were removed from office. This "Shadow Cabinet" would be composed of Democrat counter-picks to Trump presidential cabinet members, and they would scrutinize every act made by the Trump administration and propose alternative actions. This just proves that the deep state will do anything to stop President Trump.
