A Prayer for America

On this election day, I want to pray for America.
Dear God, Thank you for the privilege of being a citizen of this country at a time such as this and for granting us a say in who leads her and the policies that will determine how she fares in a perilous era.
Indeed, America faces challenges, both foreign and domestic, so great, my God, that only with your grace and intervention can we be assured of restoring this nation, founded with Your blessing and – thanks to Your repeated, miraculous interventions – capable of serving You and advancing Your values.
Therefore, I ask in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ, that You intervene once again on this election day by protecting our countrymen and women as they vote and by guiding them to preserve our Republic by reelecting President Donald Trump.
Amen.

The Choice - Donald J. Trump

The time has come to make what may be the most important choice in our nation’s history: Will we persist in the trajectory Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have put us on for most of the past fifteen years – the radical, Marxist and fundamental transformation of America?
Or will we seize the chance to restore this constitutional Republic, its founding values and institutions and the freedoms they were designed to guarantee?
Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are committed to preserving and strengthening this country.
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are, by contrast, Marxists with longstanding ties to the Chinese Communist Party that seeks to take down the United States.
If you have not already voted, I urge you to do so on Tuesday – and entreat you to join me in voting for the reelection of President Donald J. Trump.

The CCP Threat Must Be a Voting Issue

Issues of war and peace often determine a nation’s future. Consequently, when conflict looms, it generally features prominently in their elections.
Yet, that is not the case in the one now coming to a close – even though the Chinese Communist Party: has declared a “People’s War” against us; has massively built up its military; is mobilizing reservists; is actively threatening our allies in the Pacific; and has illegally inserted tens of thousands of its forces in this country.
All are very real indicators of a possibly imminent shooting war that are going largely unremarked by candidates, the press and, therefore, voters.
Consequently, our Committee on the Present Danger: China is conducting today at 1 p.m. a non-partisan “voters’ guide” webinar on the dangers we face and the choices before us that you have a need to know. Check it out at PresentDangerChina.org.

Stand With Christians - and Against Their Persecutors

On Tuesday, for the second time in as many weeks, Donald Trump tweeted about his commitment to end the persecution of Christians. By doing so, he is bringing desperately needed attention to what’s brutally happening to more than 365 million people worldwide simply because they follow Jesus Christ.
I work with an amazing Save the Persecuted Christians coalition committed to doing just that by holding accountable – and penalizing – those who perpetrate such crimes against humanity. 
In fact, as president, Mr. Trump showed in microcosm the effectiveness of this approach when he sanctioned Turkey to achieve the release of Andrew Brunson, a pastor it was then persecuting. It must next be done at scale.
God bless President Trump for standing with Christians! Do so now by boycotting Azerbaijan’s upcoming climate change conference over its past and impending genocides of Armenian Christians.

Punish, Don't Reward, A Real Hitler in Our Time

We’re told Donald Trump is like Adolph Hitler. That’s not true, of course. Ironically, many inclined to believe otherwise are about to honor and embolden someone who actually has engaged, like Hitler, in genocide – and is threatening to do so again.
Last year, Azerbaijan president Ilham Aliyev attacked and forcibly expelled 120,000 Christians from an enclave called Artsakh. His regime now threatens to invade the nation to which they fled, Armenia.  
Incredibly, as things stand now, with the UN’s blessing, many thousands of environmentalists, their corporate sponsors, governments and others are about to attend the “COP29” meeting in Azerbaijan’s capital, Baku. By so doing, they will enrich and embolden Aliyev by “greenwashing” his past crimes against humanity and greenlighting his next act of genocide.
Our new coalition warns attendees they’ll be complicit in genocide that President Trump properly condemned last week.

Our Time's Nelson Mandela - Steve Bannon

Today, thank God, America’s most formidable political prisoner, Stephen K. Bannon, is scheduled to be let out of federal prison. Not since Nelson Mandela was released from jail in South Africa thirty-four years ago has the freeing of a wrongly incarcerated hero been more anticipated – and, quite likely, more consequential.
The latter would apply because my friend Steve’s return to the fray as a leader of the Make America Great Again movement will bring fresh energy and strategic vision to bear at a decisive moment.
To the great credit of the myriad War Room guest hosts and contributors during his absence, the home fires have been kept burning throughout Steve’s four-month incarceration – the result of a politically weaponized and unconstitutional prosecution. They must, and will, do so with necessarily heightened intensity and effect now that Steve Bannon is back in the fight.
