This is Our Country. We the People Will Save our Democracy.

Last updated on: October 20, 2025 at 9:56 am By Rebecca Hamilton

No Kings Day was a gi-normous success. It was a love fest for American democracy. The Trump regime did everything they could to whip up their base to violence with repeated lies and nonsensical stories. They called the 7 million Americans from all over the country who went out on a Saturday to stand up for democracy everything from “communists” to “Hamas” to their made up bugaboo, “antifa.” They said, as they always do, that we were paid to demonstrate...

We Have No Kings in America. Not Now. Not Ever.

Last updated on: October 17, 2025 at 12:32 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

We all need a laugh. Let’s take a look at this video. I don’t know about you, but I don’t believe anything that comes out of Trump’s mouth. I also have stopped believing anything that comes out of the mouths of his stooges in his regime and his Republican stooges in Congress. From what I’ve seen, most of the Republicans who have any integrity or patriotism are out here with the rest of us, trying to save our democracy. They... Read more

Trump Got a Jet and a Golf Course. We Got a Lousy Red Hat.

Last updated on: October 16, 2025 at 8:07 am By Rebecca Hamilton

Your rulers are rebels and partners with thieves; They all love bribes and chase after gifts. They do not defend the cause of the fatherless; the widow’s case does not come before them. Isaiah 1:23 Trump got a free jet and a $5.5 billion golf course. Qatar got an American military base. All We the People got was threats, lies, troops in our cities and a lousy red hat. Here’s the story in headlines. Qatar gives Trump a “free” $300... Read more

The Mad King and his Stooges are Scared of No Kings

Last updated on: October 15, 2025 at 3:47 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

We The People The mad king and his regime is scared of No Kings Day. They have good reason to be. Tyrants fear the people they govern. They know that if enough of the people they govern rise up against them, they are on their way out. That’s why tyrants lie to the people they govern. That’s why tyrants want to take over and control the news media. That’s why tyrants send troops into the cities that have opposed them... Read more

Dems & Reps are NOT the same. Look at What They Fight For.

Last updated on: October 21, 2025 at 7:03 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

I told you I would be back on Monday, and then I didn’t show up. I apologize. Here’s what happened. Hubs and I attended an out-of-state soccer tournament in which one of our precious grands was playing. We stayed in a hotel that was full to the top with giddy, excited kids who ran up and down the halls and filled the elevators with their chitter-chattering fun. We ate lots of greasy, bad-for-the-heart food, and we spent time with our... Read more

Full Moons, Antifa Doesn’t Exist, Dilexi Te and Soccer Games

Last updated on: October 9, 2025 at 1:04 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

Did you see the moon last night? I think the harvest moons in September and October are the most beautiful moons of the year. I absolutely love this time of year. From Labor Day, right on through the Epiphany; it’s my time of the year. I’m going to take a few days away from writing, even though there is a plethora of things I could write about, both concerning the Church and the continuing horror show that’s playing in Washington....

Troops Firing on Unarmed Civilians is Murder, not Combat

Last updated on: October 14, 2025 at 10:45 am By Rebecca Hamilton

Have nothing to do with a false charge and do not put an innocent person to death, for I will not acquit the guilty. Exodus 23:7 Texas National Guard has arrived in Chicago. ICE shot a Chicago woman earlier this week. They claim she was armed. But witnesses dispute what they are saying and call it a coverup. While I don’t know what happened, I’ve seen enough videos of ICE agents physically brutalizing people and heard enough lies from this... Read more

Republicans are Now the Party of Death. How Did this Happen?

Last updated on: October 7, 2025 at 3:33 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

Trump’s Republicans have become the Party of Death. How did this happen? The budget which they are fighting for would end the subsidy the government pays to supplement insurance costs through Obamacare, otherwise known as the Affordable Care Act. That would send insurance premiums skyrocketing for the exact American citizens who are least able to pay them. In fact, it would increase those Americans’ insurance premiums an average of about $900/month. Most of them couldn’t afford it, and would lose... Read more

Jesus Will Come Again. We Don’t Know When. Do His Will Now.

Last updated on: October 6, 2025 at 4:06 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Jesus Christ Matthew 24:36 Evidently, Jesus was supposed to come again a couple of weeks ago. The due date was Tuesday, September 23, 2025. I wasn’t aware of this until late on the evening of September 22, when a family member told me that another family member was unavailable to help with a small family crisis because they... Read more

Injuries & Usurpations with the Object to Establish Tyranny

I pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all. From the Declaration of Independence: The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world. … He... Read more
