Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
We love to celebrate the Greatest Generation—but would we recognize the world that forged them? As global tensions rise and America’s factories quietly prepare for contingencies once thought impossible, one question looms: if Detroit ever trades pickup trucks for artillery shells again, are we ready for what comes next? Buckle up, buttercup. History has a habit of collecting unpaid debts.
We like to believe America is immune—that we’re somehow different from every civilization that came before us. History laughs at that kind of arrogance.
Yugoslavia wasn’t supposed to collapse. Rwanda wasn’t supposed to collapse. Their citizens woke up one morning convinced civilization was permanent, until they discovered it wasn’t. The most dangerous moment for any nation isn’t when people disagree. It’s when they stop believing the rules matter and begin believing only their side is legitimate.
The Constitution isn’t self-executing. Freedom isn’t self-sustaining. Civilization isn’t guaranteed.
It’s a veneer—thinner than most of us would ever dare admit.
My first week owning a dumb phone has been, well, dumb. In fact, it’s been so uneventful, I’m not totally sure what to do with myself.
FormerPresident Biden, Senator Sanders and Mr. Reich are envious of Elon Musk’s success. They want you to think he became the richest man in the world because of government subsidies and infrastructure. I’m not going to pretend that Elon Musk is a rags to riches story, but he took a lot of risks and made some very difficult decisions to get to the point he is now.
The information warfare machine continues to spew out its drivel. Objective: Pit you against me, in whatever form that manifests. Man against God, man against women, man against countrymen, it matters not, so long as discord and chaos reign. If you read Don’s take on the news this week, you can skip the psyops and develop a jaundiced eye toward the psyop minions: the media.
The United Methodist Church was founded by John Wesley on the core beliefs of Christianity, separated from the Church of England on some minor theological issues, and took the name Methodist because they were often described as being very Methodical in their daily practice and worship.
I’m sure some of you have noticed I haven’t been writing as much as I used to. I get lots of emails asking why this is. Many of these emails are ultra-friendly emails, beginning with the words, “WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!!!?”
To answer this, I need to start by telling you about our trip to Spain.
Truth is not determined by our feelings, our experiences, or whatever is popular this week. Even the most profound spiritual encounter still leaves one question unanswered: Is it true?
After years of searching through war, trauma, interviews, and extraordinary experiences, Shawn Ryan says his search led him to a simple conclusion—not another philosophy, not another experience, but Jesus Christ and the Bible. Whether you agree or not, his journey is a reminder that the greatest question any of us can ask isn’t, “What did I experience?” It’s, “What is true?”
Consider the act of forcing someone to use a pronoun that isn’t their God given identity. That makes us complicit in a lie. We are knowingly speaking an untruth.
In 1956, the Army created the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit. In 1958, General Curtis LeMay established the Air Force Marksmanship School and pushed competitive shooting across the service because America’s military leaders believed one simple truth: a warrior should master his weapon. Today, many of the skeet fields, rifle ranges, and MWR shooting facilities that once flourished on military bases have disappeared. We call it modernization. Previous generations might have called it forgetting the purpose of a military in the first place.
Anthony Fauci appeared before the Senate, but there aren’t enough hours in the day to grill this bureaucrat on the contents of his rap sheet. When the full story is told, he will indeed be remembered as one of history’s worst villains.
Xi Jinping is orchestrating a deliberate, decade-long, multi-domain campaign of ideological and political reconsolidation that draws conscious inspiration from Mao Zedong’s methods while adapting them to a modern surveillance state. The comparison is imperfect but illuminating, and the trend lines are unmistakably moving in one direction — tighter, deeper, and more permanent — while obfuscating its harsh effects on the victims from scrutiny.
In the 1970s, Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” emerged as a roadmap for grassroots organizing and political change.
Thomas Jefferson said the Liberty Tree needed to be watered with the blood of patriots every 20 years. Pass on that, even though the Bolsheviks push towards violence. We should fight only when there’s no other way to stay free of Human Secularist Totalitarianism or Islamist Totalitarianism. A “color” revolution is non-violent change of government which captures the culture as well.
Citizen Writer, Unpopular Politics makes the case that, without Conservatives, without conservative values, America Dies.
If I were grading Zoran Mamdani’s first six and a half months in office, I would give him a D-minus. I cannot honestly say he has failed outright, but he appears to be heading toward disaster with little standing in his way.
Don Surber takes us through the most impactful news items of the week in a manner only he can. You’ll see the media for what it is and uncover the truth behind the packaging. Enjoy!
Jesus of Nazareth’s life, teachings, and the miracles attributed to him have sparked profound discussions and debates across cultures and centuries.
Natural leadership, real Alpha Males, and the sources of toxic leadership. There is great misunderstanding in the tactical world about the concept of an Alpha Male, as it occurs in nature, and being a leader and the relationship between the two.
The Civilian Marksmanship Program is more than a shooting organization. It is a self-funded national-security asset that preserves firearms safety, competitive marksmanship, and a reserve of civilian expertise. During the Iraq War, CMP volunteers even traveled to military installations such as Fort Campbell to help the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit train deploying soldiers as Squad Designated Marksmen. What looks like recreation on Saturday can become battlefield capability when the nation needs it.
