Churchill, Franco, and Rhodesia: Rethinking the Villains and Heroes of History

The last few years have awakened many people to just how much we have been lied to. And this realization is causing many on the Right to reevaluate our understanding of history to see what went wrong.

Do We Need a New Declaration of Independence?

The Declaration of Independence is one of the greatest political documents ever written. And now…I think we need another one. This one is not written to a tyrannical king, but to our fellow countrymen…if we can even call them that anymore. I don't say this to be divisive, I say it because it's the truth. And while all of us can accept that the truth can be divisive at times…for those who use offense as a substitute for an argument, truth is divisive all the time…because your real problem is not with my tone or privilege or any other contrivance, your problem is with objective reality. For such a person, the truth will always be divisive. So here it is…my Declaration of Independence from you. -----⭐ SPONSOR: Live Action Live Action has the largest online presence in the pro-life movement, reaching over 40 million people every month–changing hearts and minds on abortion.
