EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Will We Ever Get That Inch Back? We all know the old saying twisted here for a reason: give a communist an inch and they take a mile, every single time. Look at history, brothers and sisters, from the Bolsheviks grabbing power after small concessions to the slow creep of socialism right here in our backyard. Today in 2026 we see the same pattern playing out again. Small policy wins for the left turn into massive overreach, whether it’s open borders letting in who knows what threats, or cultural pushes that erode our Christian foundations bit by bit. The pattern is clear. Start with “compassionate” immigration tweaks and end up with sanctuary cities shielding criminals while American communities suffer. Give ground on education and suddenly our kids get bombarded with ideologies that mock God and family. Yield on economic controls and watch freedom vanish under layers of regulations and wealth redistribution schemes. The Chinese Communist Party looms large too, infiltrating our agriculture, tech, and even pushing their electric vehicles to undercut our industries while their spies operate with impunity. We conservatives, rooted in biblical truth and love for this republic, have watched these incremental grabs for years. Each time we compromise thinking it’s just one small step, the other side pockets it and demands more. The question staring us in the face is whether we can claw any of that ground back before it’s gone for good. Scripture warns us about unequally yoked partnerships and standing firm against evil schemes. We’ve got to stop pretending dialogue with those who hate our way of life will fix anything. The communists don’t negotiate in good faith, they advance. Time to recognize the spiritual battle here and act like it matters eternally.

Does the state of Minnesota represent America and ground zero for the insane or is America still a nation of law and order? This is a huge question that needs an answer. The answer, which is difficult to truly ascertain, would give us the true direction of the country. Are we a nation of strong law and order or have we devolved into a nation ruled by chaos and emotions.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Calling This a Crisis… Look, we’ve got a full-blown mental illness epidemic tearing through this country, and pretending it’s just stress or modern life won’t cut it anymore. Recent numbers show over 60 million adults dealing with some form of mental illness each year, that’s roughly one in four people walking around with anxiety, depression, or worse. Youth are hit especially hard, with major depressive episodes still affecting a big chunk of kids 12 to 17, even if some stats dipped a little lately. Suicide thoughts haunt millions, attempts climb, and overdoses keep claiming lives like it’s nothing. From a conservative Christian standpoint, this didn’t happen overnight. We’ve kicked God out of schools, homes, and public life for decades, replaced absolute truth with feelings and relativism, and now we’re shocked when people feel lost and hopeless. Social media feeds endless comparison and despair, families are fractured by divorce and absent fathers, chemicals in food and water mess with brains, and big pharma pushes pills that mask symptoms without fixing root causes. The left wants to blame guns or climate or capitalism, but the real culprit is a godless culture that tells people they’re accidents in a meaningless universe. Without Christ at the center, no wonder minds unravel. We’ve turned from biblical wisdom, personal responsibility, and strong communities built on faith, and the fallout is this crisis. It’s not just medical, it’s spiritual warfare playing out in real time. We need to call it what it is, a rejection of God’s design leading to widespread brokenness.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: What Now? America stands at a crossroads few of us ever thought we’d see. The republic our founders bled for has been hollowed out by decades of betrayal from within. Globalist policies, open borders, weaponized institutions, and a deliberate attack on biblical truth have left families fractured, churches compromised, and communities drowning in despair. We’ve watched elected officials sell out sovereignty for power, corporations bow to woke ideology, and entire generations raised without any anchor in God’s Word. The damage runs deep. Inflation crushes the working man, crime stalks our streets, children are targeted in schools, and the very idea of right and wrong is mocked in the public square. Yet despair is not the Christian response. God has not abandoned His people. He is sovereign over nations and history. The question is no longer what has happened to America. The real question is what now? Will we retreat into silence and comfort, or will we stand as watchmen on the wall? Revival starts in the heart of the believer. It spreads through faithful homes, bold pulpits, and everyday citizens who refuse to bend the knee to Caesar. The hour is late, but the God who parted seas and raised the dead is still on the throne. Our duty is clear: repent, pray, prepare, and engage. The battle for the soul of this nation is not over until the King returns.

Failed television talking head Don Lemon and local civil rights activist scum stormed a Christian church in St. Paul, Minnesota to protest ICE’s law enforcement presence in Minneapolis. The parishioners of Cities Church were in disbelief and stunned as their church service was disrupted by 30 to 40 activists. The parishioners were then threatened by the activists, and their children were scared as they tried to flee the church.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: How is This Good for Our Nation? Look around at what’s happening right now in our cities and communities. Mass immigration, unchecked and unvetted, is flooding in at levels we have never seen before, and it’s hitting Black American neighborhoods hardest. The numbers don’t lie, birth rates among native-born Black families have dropped sharply over recent decades, while new arrivals pour in from places that don’t share our history, our values, or our Judeo-Christian foundation. This isn’t about race-baiting, it’s about cold reality: entire blocks and districts that were once strong Black cultural hubs are shifting fast, with local businesses closing, churches emptying out, and long-time residents priced out or pushed aside by rapid demographic turnover. From a conservative Christian standpoint, this erodes the family structure God designed, weakens the church’s influence in those communities, and replaces generational wisdom with imported chaos that often brings its own problems, crime spikes, strained resources, and cultural clashes. How does flooding the labor market with low-wage workers help working-class Black fathers provide for their households? How does overwhelming schools and social services build up the next generation of strong, faith-rooted young men and women? It doesn’t. Instead, it dilutes the voice and the vote of Black Americans who have fought for centuries to build dignity and opportunity here. Our nation was founded on biblical principles of justice, hard work, and ordered liberty, not on endless replacement that serves globalist interests over citizens. This isn’t progress, it’s erasure, and it weakens all of us who love this country and want to see it stand firm under God’s sovereignty. We need secure borders, merit-based immigration that honors our laws, and policies that lift up every American family, especially those rooted in faith and patriotism. Anything less betrays the republic and the Gospel call to love our neighbor by protecting our own house first.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Why Do We Allow The Destruction of Our Nation? Brothers and sisters in Christ, look around at what they’ve done to our once-great country. We sit here watching wave after wave of fraud tear through every level of society, from rigged elections where noncitizens get registered and vote without consequence, to massive welfare scams run by foreign nationals who exploit our generosity while laughing at our laws. Just look at the reports coming out of places like Oregon and Minnesota, where thousands of ineligible people, including illegals, end up on voter rolls or draining taxpayer-funded programs meant for American citizens in need. This isn’t incompetence, it’s deliberate. The same crowd pushing open borders, DEI nonsense, and endless government overreach wants us weak, divided, and dependent. They flood our nation with invaders who game the system, steal resources, and dilute our culture, all while the elites in DC and statehouses turn a blind eye or worse, encourage it. Our Christian heritage built on hard work, personal responsibility, and faith in God gets mocked and replaced with moral relativism and entitlement. Why do we allow it? Because too many good people have been lulled into complacency by comfort, fear of being called names, or trust in institutions that long ago sold out. Scripture warns us about those who call evil good and good evil (Isaiah 5:20), and that’s exactly where we are. The destruction isn’t accidental, it’s strategic, aimed at erasing the America our forefathers founded under God’s providence. If we don’t wake up, repent, and fight back with truth and courage, we’ll lose it all. Time is short, and the stakes are eternal.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Can We Talk Now? Listen, brothers and sisters, the dam has broken wide open. What used to get you labeled a conspiracy nut or worse is now front and center in everyday conversations across America. After October 7 and the endless fallout, the world didn’t just notice, it exploded into open hostility. Fringe ideas are now in the spotlight, from campuses to cable news to social media feeds. We can talk now because silence is no longer an option. The culture is forcing the issue, and as believers we know the spiritual battle behind it all. Time to wake up, speak truth, and prepare our hearts and homes for what’s coming.

The onslaught of Hollywood celebrities pontificating on the evil of ICE and how there is no human that is illegal has begun. That is perfect because everything they stand for is the opposite of righteous, moral and common sense. We are, by simple default, on the correct side. Let’s read some of the absurdities of these self-righteous bastards!
