Frankly I’m amazed of the public viciousness the American
Left has expressed in response to the political assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Every form of hate and intolerance the Left has accused Patriot-Conservative-Christian
Americans of is being on full display by the American Left.
I discovered yesterday – from The Federalist – that the
Utah Governor (Spencer Cox) has been a promoter of Transgender acceptance. In
case you live under a rock, Transgenders believe, by human will, they can
biologically change the gender they were born with to another gender. A
BIOLOGICAL IMPOSSIBILITY! Hence mocking the Creator. That places Governor Cox
as a RINO. The Federalist points to other RINOs supportive of Transgenderism
which sadly included my Oklahoma Senator James Lankford (whom I voted
against in his last Primary). The title: “Gov.
Cox Has Spent Years Embracing The ‘Trans’ Ideology That Corrupted Charlie
Kirk’s Killer”.

As Utah governor, Cox has regularly embraced
transgenderism and its accompanying delusions.
Since the
tragic assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, conservative
voters have rightly criticized weak-kneed responses from elected Republicans,
whose refusal to confront leftist-led political violence
has arguably contributed to the growing problem. While much of this frustration
has been directed at figures like GOP Sens. James Lankford
and Thom Tillis, there’s one notable Republican whose left-wing antics have
gone unaccounted for: Utah Gov. Spencer Cox.
During a Sunday interview on CNN’s State of the Union, Cox
was asked by left-wing hack Dana Bash
about comments made by Trump ally Steve Bannon. Addressing Cox’s response to
Kirk’s assassination at a Utah university, Bannon reportedly called the
governor a “national embarrassment,” and said in part, “In a time where we need
action, he tells us to sing kumbaya and hold hands with Antifa.”
Cox acknowledged Bannon is “rightfully” angry but insisted
he is “not saying we have to just sing kumbaya and hold hands” and that “we
actually should disagree.” While he went on to praise Kirk’s willingness to
engage with those he disagreed with, the GOP governor handed legacy media the
soundbite they were clearly looking for by characterizing Kirk’s rhetoric as
“inflammatory.”
“What I’m saying is, we actually should disagree. I think
Charlie represented that better than anyone,” Cox said. “Charlie said some very
inflammatory things. And in some corners of the web, that’s all people have
heard. But he also said some other things about forgiveness. He said some
amazing things about, when things get dark, putting down our phones, reading
Scripture, going to church, talking to our neighbors.”
The moment may not seem like much when compared to the
pathetic responses from Republicans like Lankford and Tillis. But in actuality,
it offered Americans a window into the kind of Republican Cox truly is.
While the Beehive State governor deserves credit for
attempting to bring a sense of comfort to Utahns and other Americans grieving
Kirk’s assassination, it is impossible to ignore his role in promoting the same
destructive ideology that ultimately corrupted the mind and soul of Kirk’s
killer. As governor, Cox has regularly embraced transgenderism and its
accompanying delusions.
While speaking virtually to a group of schoolchildren in
2021, for instance, Cox advanced the false notion that one can choose their
sex and gender pronouns. After a female who proclaimed to be bisexual
introduced herself using her preferred pronouns, the GOP governor followed suit
and touted anti-American DEI ideology in the process.
“I am Gov. Spencer Cox, and I have the pleasure today of
hosting the first One Utah Student Town Hall, and my preferred pronouns are
‘he, him, and his.’ So, thank you for sharing yours with me,” Cox said. “I
believe in helping young leaders learn and grow by listening to them and by
providing platforms to share their voices. Leading with equity and inclusion
starts at a young age …”
Cox also previously listed his preferred pronouns in his
Instagram bio at one point, but has since deleted them, according to a March
2022 Daily Wire report.
But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The Beehive State
governor’s track record on transgenderism gets even worse.
In spring 2022, Cox vetoed legislation seeking to bar trans-identifying
men from competing in women’s sports. His reasoning for doing so? That he
wanted to “err on the side of kindness, mercy, and compassion.”
“I am not an expert on transgenderism. I struggle to
understand so much of it and the science is conflicting,” Cox wrote at the time
about a destructive ideology whose accompanying “medical” procedures harm its adherents.
Fortunately, the state legislature overwhelmingly overrode
Cox’s veto to protect the sanctity of women’s sports.
Shoehorning radical gender ideology down Utahns’ throats
under the guise of “kindness” and “inclusion” also appeared to be behind Cox’s
decision to designate June as “LBGTQ+ Pride Month” in 2021. The move was “the
first such statewide designation in Utah’s history,” according to Deseret News.
While Cox did sign a bill in 2023 that purported to prohibit
damaging “trans” procedures for minors, the legislation, as Tristan Justice
previously noted in these pages, “doesn’t do much of
anything.”
“The new law signed by the Utah governor … only bars
transgender procedures and hormone interventions for minors who have not been
diagnosed with gender dysphoria,” Justice wrote. “In other words, minors can
find a sympathetic physician steeped in wrongly named ‘gender-affirming care’
who will give them a diagnosis that enables them to pump their bodies full of
wrong-sex hormones and amputate their healthy organs. Teens focused on
gender-bending can even be diagnosed online.”
Contrary to his apparent belief otherwise, Cox’s years-long
willingness to not only accommodate but promote “trans” ideology is the exact
opposite of compassion. Indulging and advancing the anti-truth delusions of
gender dysphoric individuals is harmful to them and — as evidenced by Kirk’s
assassination — others.
This is not to blame Cox for Kirk’s assassination. The
monster who pulled the trigger is ultimately the one responsible for such
barbarity.
But the fact remains that the cowardice of feckless
Republicans like Cox and their refusal to confront the left’s radical ideology
have helped foster an environment in which unhinged leftists feel emboldened to
step outside the norms of civil discourse. That is, these extremists have come
to view violence against their political opponents as an acceptable way to
acquire and maintain power.
Elected Republicans have a duty-bound obligation to crush
such violent forces using every and all legal tools available to protect the
lives of their constituents. Anything short of that is unacceptable.

I am guessing a lot of Americans that are not history-minded
do not realize September 17 is the anniversary of America’s Constitutional
Convention delivering a Constitution to be ratified as the rule of law by newly
independent States following victory in the Revolutionary War. Making today
Constitution Day.
In honor of Constitution Day I’m sharing three posts I ran
into that also update the Founders’ framework to what the Constitution faces
today from prominent Constitution Shredders which is the American Left
dedicated to transform America away from its Founding
Principles. This should be of interest for Americans dedicated
to the Founders’ concept of Liberty:
Of the three Constitution Day shares, the first one is from Inspirational
Christian Blogs and looks through a Christian lens that
condemns Leftist Lies and the climate that assassinated Charlie Kirk.

Charlie Kirk was an amazing man, and by most accounts, he
was even liked by many of those who disagreed with him, some of them
fervently. Charlie was well known all across the U.S., not to mention in
large parts of the entire world, he had a keen impact on many people.
Regardless of what people thought of him and his positions,
most would acknowledge, and many did, that he was honest. Kirk was a man
of integrity, that was not an idle word to be thrown around carelessly, or to
be used in a press release to manipulate people and sharpen his image,
integrity was part and parcel of who Charlie Kirk was.
Charlie was a strong believer in Jesus, his faith really
showing in everything he did, especially in the last five to ten years of his
life. Asked at one time what he would want to be remembered for, his
answer was – “my faith.”
Kirk’s was a life destined for greatness, and cut short by
an angry and deceived man who for whatever reason, decided that murder was the
solution to a problem that was blown way out of proportion into a mania that
pushed him over the edge of reasonable thought and action.
Some people are saying Charlie died a martyr, whether or not
that is true, I will leave that determination to wiser minds than mine, he made
a huge impact on people, his death and the manner of it, combined with how he
lived his life, and the fact of his faith in Jesus Christ – have all combined
to have a world-wide influence on a great many people.
Applications for new Turning Point USA chapters have
absolutely exploded. Atheists have looked at the life of Kirk, and
decided that they want to be like him, and placed their faith in Jesus.
Frustrations Rising
Others are voicing their frustration with the left’s
cavalier attitude concerning Kirks death. Naturally the politicians are
quick to condemn the violent death of Kirk, especially since a gun was
used – since it is in their own self-interest. But many of the every-day
leftists and liberals, when they were told of Kirk’s death or found out about
it by whatever method, their reaction was the usual shrug of the shoulders like
“yeah, whatever.”
If a leftist, liberal, or Democrat – pretty much all the
same thing, is harmed or killed, the outrage is immediate and very vocal.
If it is a conservative and/or a Christian who is attacked, killed etc., the
attitude is so often a cavalier dismissal, as if these people by their stance
and positions in life are unimportant and without any merit or value to the
rest of our society.
After the death of Charlie Kirk, I think more and more
people are waking up to this attitude of the left, and people are getting tired
of the dismissal, the hate, and arrogance of the leftists playing God.
Don’t get me wrong here, the Republicans are far from
perfect. No one is perfect actually. But there is a very
noticeable demarcation line between those who adhere to the leftist ideals, and
those who do not. There is a huge difference between those who (Genuinely
worship and believe in Jesus) believe in God, and those who shun Him, shut Him
out, mock Him, and have worked diligently to kick God out of our society in
full.
God and the worship of Him has been largely replaced by
meology – that fervent desire to have everything I want, when I want it –
nothing and no one is more important than me. To cast off any rules that
I deem unimportant, to violently throw off the reigns of God – “No one is going
to tell me what to do!” Morals, righteousness, godliness, and
goodness have been carelessly cast off, trodden on, and shoved into the gutter
of society. There is precious little regard for the harm of others, what
effects one’s actions have on others, there is only me.
Disgusting.
The Constitution
This country is governed by the United States Constitution,
a very precise and well thought out document. Most nation’s constitutions
last around 17 years or so, ours has been around for well over 200 years.
It has been said for a while now that our Constitution is
outdated, that it is wholly unsuited for the governance of this country any
longer. That is yet another leftist lie, and a huge manipulation attempt
engaged in by the leftists and the media which for the most part are the
lapdogs of the Left.
The real problem is the people, at least many of them.
The U.S. Constitution was a document designed to govern a Christian people, a
people who closely follow, revere, obey, and worship Jesus Christ. Most
of “We the People” no longer even acknowledge God, let alone worship and obey
Him. Many who say they follow the One true God do not, they give
mere lip service and no more.
“One of the foremost constitutional theorists of the
founding generation, John Adams, observed, ‘Our Constitution was made only for
a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any
other.’” (Source)
It is by no means the Constitution that is inadequate, it is
the people who are inadequate. The Constitution didn’t change, the people
did, and not for the better.
Of course, Google’s AI disputes this to no one’s surprise:
“AI Overview
The idea that the U.S. Constitution was designed to govern a
Christian people is inaccurate. The Constitution is a secular document that
deliberately avoids mentioning Christianity or God, and its text establishes a
government that is neutral toward religion.” (Source)
The Founding Fathers and the Constitution
It is said that the Constitution’s text is secular, that
because of the inclusion of the “no religion test,” and the “Establishment
Clause,” among other things, that our Constitution is secular, not at all a
model for a Christian nation. These arguments are false, and deliberately
so.
Another popular and equally false strategy is the claim that
many Founding Fathers were deists, if one digs into the meat of this, one will
find that for the most part, this is not true.
If the Founding Fathers were not followers of God,
then why were they often known to pray to Him? Why were battles in the
war against England for our independence, in which we had the equivalent of
toys compared to their well-armed huge gunships, battles we rightly should have
lost, many of which we won, attributed to God, the Eternal Son, etc.? Why
were the Founding Father’s writings filled with thousands of references
to God? Why are most of our government buildings decorated with Scripture
and other witness to God? Why did Congress in the beginning and for some
time thereafter open in prayer (Sometimes hours long)? Why was the very
Constitution itself framed to follow the dictates of God Almighty, as well as
other documents, such as the Bill of Rights?
Why did Founding Father and the second president of the
United States, John Adams, declare that the U.S. Constitution was, “only for a
moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any
other,” if said Constitution is only a secular document?
Stop Believing the Leftist Lies
Charlie Kirk didn’t believe this nonsense and neither should
we. The U.S. has moved further and further away from God and closer and
closer to divine punishment. I believe some people are waking up to the
left’s manipulation and dishonesty. Kirk’s death has been a huge and
dramatic wake up call to many people the world over.
It’s time for the leftists and all others who use their
offices, their power, and their influence to line their own pockets, to pave
the way to power for themselves, to insure a place in front of the cameras –
while at the same time destroying our nation from the inside out with wasteful
spending, open borders, a weak military and understaffed police to name just a
few, it’s time to hold them accountable and say, enough!
Most major U.S. cities are failing in every way that counts,
and most of them are run by leftist Democrats.
If being in public office doesn’t mean serving your country
to you, then leave office. It’s not about you; it’s about all the people
you represent.
If you don’t want to be a part of a nation that bends the
knee to Jesus Christ, leave. Move to North Korea, China, Iran, or Russia,
be sure to let me know how that goes for you.
Freedom isn’t spending ourselves into oblivion. It’s
not about allowing people to cross the border and seriously endanger the safety
of our own people either. Neither is it represented by training our
military on transgender, homosexual, and lesbian “rights,” while actual
military readiness training is not completed, and equipment is not updated and
replaced on a timely basis. Freedom isn’t in making the “rules” so
complicated that no one can possibly follow them, and new businesses are almost
impossible to start and maintain.
Just because CNN and MSNBC report it, that doesn’t mean it’s
the truth. Because Google search finds it, doesn’t mean that the results
are honest and not tampered with to the owners’ satisfaction. If it’s on
X or Facebook, or TikTok, that doesn’t mean it’s real “news.”
Honoring Charlie Kirk
I pray Charlie Kirk’s death will not be in vain, but will in
all actuality become a blessing to our nation, a tough and hard one to swallow,
but our God can and will use all things to our good, if we choose to allow Him
to. God forces no one to worship Him, hence the reason why this country
is in the dire straits that it is.
To see a nice presentation honoring Charlie Kirk, and a very
insightful, fast paced, and interesting presentation on the Constitution and
the Founding Fathers, watch the video linked or included below. Yes, it’s
in a church, but the content is as I have described.
Greg is
a strong believer in Jesus Christ and in the need for revival in today’s
Church. He likes reading, writing, music, and spending time with his family
and his dog Roxie. By day he is a self-employed non-emergency medical
transport driver, and is the Editor-in-Chief for the National War Council,
as well as being a political analyst, author, blogger, and an accomplished
DIYer. His articles are first published on Inspirational Christian Blogs,
and I Am Not Ashamed of the Gospel of Christ!, and from
there the articles are published on other well-known conservative websites.
The author feels
convinced that the Church is in extreme danger of being forsaken by God for
being unbiblical and seeks to warn all those with “ears to hear.” He
believes we are in the last days of the end times, and that God is building His
Remnant Church even now.
It was today, 17 September 1787, 238 years ago, that the
rule of law governing the longest-running constitutional Republic the world has
ever known was signed. It would be some two years later that the Constitution
of the United States of America would be ratified by the 13 states. The most
integral part of our Constitution that had to be added was the first ten
amendments, known as our individual Bill of Rights. I first took the oath to
support and defend the Constitution on 31 July 1982 at the University of
Tennessee, Knoxville, at the Stokely Athletic Center, picture attached. My Dad
and two other generations in my family took the same oath…as well as my
Father-in-Law, all combat veterans.

Sadly, last week we watched a young man lose his life as he
enjoyed one of those individual freedoms, the right to free speech.
Now, more than ever, we must recommit, take an oath, all of
us, to the Constitution of the United States, our rule of law. We must honor
the incredible work of James Madison, John Jay, and Alexander Hamilton. Men who
read the words of the French political theorist Montesquieu, The Spirit of the
Laws, created our three branches of government. Our elected officials must
abide by our rule of law, not subscribe to destructive ideologies that are the
antithesis of our Constitution….Marxism, Socialism, Progressivism, Communism.
We can no longer tolerate the abject and blatant violations
of our Constitution, as we saw with Biden’s open borders policy. We can no
longer subjugate ourselves to a belief that the government should be telling us
what type of car to drive, how much water to flush, what shower heads to have,
and what appliances to own. We can no longer accept a philosophy of governance
that would render citizens subjects by disarming them, denying them their
constitutional right to bear arms.
Today is the day when a Philadelphia socialite named Mrs.
Powel, asked a pertinent question to Benjamin Franklin…”Well, doctor, what do
we have, a monarchy or a Republic?” Franklin’s response was astute and
resonates today: “A Republic if you can keep it”.
The American Constitutional Rights Union, of which I am the
Executive Director, gives me the opportunity to continue to honor the oath I
took 43 years ago. I am now 64 and have just as much determination and vigor in
keeping that promise to the American people. I challenge you today to make this
promise: that you will read the entire Constitution of the United States by the
end of this week. Something that simple would honor the sacrifice of so many
who had made the ultimate sacrifice and given the last full measure of devotion
so that “the government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall
not perish from the earth”. We honor the man who uttered those words at the
dedication of the cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
We honor Charlie Kirk, who lost his life speaking to our
freedom of speech.
Happy Constitution Day, America; study it, honor it, support
and defend it with all your might.
Let's get rid of Labor Day, which was inspired by Marxism
anyway, and replace it with Constitution Day. Make the paid holiday September
17 for celebration, and when September 17 falls on a weekday make it the
following Monday. Instruct schools to suspend all classes and only have
Constitution Day assemblies and education workshops (which is already law and
is violated every year: Public Law 108-447 Section 111 of Title I, Division J,
of the Fiscal Year 2005 Consolidated Appropriations Act, enacted into law on
December 8, 2004, instructs each Federal agency to provide educational
materials concerning the United States Constitution to each employee on
September 17 of each year.). In other words, let's use Constitution Day to
get civics back into our schools.
The Constitution of the United States was designed to
stand the test of time
The U.S. Constitution was signed September 17, 1787.
Constitution Day commemorates that tremendous day. Today is Constitution Day.
The importance of celebrating the anniversary of the signing of the
Constitution is tremendous, for we are not just observing an anniversary of the
signing of a document, but we are recognizing the creation of the greatest
political system ever conceived.
The Constitution of the United States was designed to stand the test of time,
and it has indeed endured over two centuries. For many, it is considered the
greatest document ever conceived, and it is held in high esteem by nearly all
Americans. But, the appreciation for the U.S. Constitution does not stop there.
The U.S. Constitution is also an object of admiration by peoples around the
world.
In 1824, Mexico actually created their own constitution that was largely
modeled after ours. Dictator Santa Anna, however, hated it, and slaughtered
Mexicans standing up for the 1824 Mexican constitution, drawing the United
States into the conflict which resulted in the Mexican-American War, which was
a war of liberation for the territories in what is today the southwestern
United States—a region that invited American troops because they wanted to be
separated from Santa Anna's bloody vision for Mexico's future.
A campaign against the American Constitution began even before the conflict to
save Mexico's territories from tyranny. The attacks against the U.S.
Constitution began internally, largely through judicial activism originally led
by John Marshall, a student of big government proponent Alexander Hamilton.
Liberal Left theorists and activist judges have created an environment where
the very foundations of this country have been seriously undermined, and are in
grave danger. Our core principles have been denigrated, and the Constitution
has been twisted through their anti-originalism interpretation so as to bend
and mold the Constitution into their Marxist leftist agenda, regardless of the
original intent of the document.
The violent hate for the Constitution by the progressive
radical left is becoming more and more apparent with each passing day
Thanks to the rise of movements like the Tea Party and MAGA,
America's desire to become more informed as a result of the destruction of the
system by the leftist progressive democrats is on the rise. For many Americans,
their interest emerged during the Obama and Biden Presidencies, because in
their gut they knew their liberty was at risk. Americans realize that the
Leftist agenda and WOKEism are not just in opposition of the document, but seek
to destroy its original intent—a realization that led to the election of Donald
J. Trump as President of the United States again in 2024.
The violent hate for the Constitution by the progressive radical left is
becoming more and more apparent with each passing day, with the violent
rhetoric, the attempt on Donald Trump's life and the political assassination of
Charlie Kirk.
This makes September 17th even more important for Americans. It isn't just
another day, but an important observation of the day that the greatest
governing document ever created was signed.
We the People are what the Constitution is all about. The document limits the
authority of the federal government so as to protect the people from tyranny.
The more of us that understand this, and demand a return to the original intent
of the Constitution, the greater the chance we will reach a point where the
Trump Presidency represents a tipping point along the long journey back to
liberty.
The Constitution has endured for over 200 years, and its enduring integrity
cannot be taken for granted. We must be educated regarding the Constitution's
principles, and we must fight to preserve the Constitution, for our liberty's
future depends on it.
