James Talarico has stated “I always think of myself as a Christian who hates Christianity” According to the Scripture he is anathema.
Talarico has made it clear that he want the southern border to have a “giant welcome mat.”
There is a legal way to enter this country and any who refuse to come in the proper way, have no business being in this country.
Unfortunately, Talarico and many of his Democrat compadres aren’t just after political power. They’re out to completely destroy the traditons and values we hold dear, which includes liberty.
A spiritual battle is coming to the West, actually it is already here, and it is going to get worse and more deadly if the Church fails to rise up and take a stand. The enemies are Wokism and Marxism combining with Islam to go after and destroy the American way of life.
Obama complained and called the Constitution a document of negative liberties. Initially that did not make sense to me, after considering what he said and watching his actions I began to realize that what he and many other leftists hate is that said document is intended to protect “We, the people” from power-hungry politicians who […]
Before the weekend ends and America moves on to the next headline, we need to pause and look at a story that matters more than almost any other—the collapse of Venezuela, and what it warns us about if the last democratic superpower ever falls the same way.
This didn’t happen overnight. It happened step by step, over one generation.
VENEZUELA: HOW A PROSPEROUS NATION COLLAPSED
1992 Venezuela is the 3rd richest country in the Western Hemisphere, powered by oil and a growing middle class.
1997 Venezuelans become the 2nd largest buyers of Ford F-150s—a sign of widespread prosperity.
1998 Hugo Chávez is elected, promising to “redistribute wealth” and fix inequality.
2001 The country votes again for socialism, framed as compassion and fairness.
2003 The government imposes price controls and currency controls. Black markets appear. Shortages begin.
2004 Private healthcare is fully socialized.
2006 Inflation rises sharply as massive welfare programs expand without real economic backing.
2007 All higher education becomes “free.”
2008 Key industries—oil services, steel, cement, telecom—are nationalized. Production drops almost immediately.
2009 Private gun ownership is banned.
2010 The currency is devalued by 50%, crushing savings and accelerating inflation.

2012 American politicians, like Bernie Sanders, publicly praise Venezuela’s model.

2023 Minor economic improvements fail to relieve mass poverty.
2024 Disputed elections trigger protests and global isolation.
2026 Maduro is removed by force. Venezuela is liberated after decades of ruin.
THE HARD TRUTH
It took one generation of “progressive” leadership to turn one of the richest countries on Earth into a nation defined by hunger, fear, mass graves, and mass migration.
This is the lesson history keeps teaching:
You can vote your way into socialism. But history shows people only escape it through collapse, violence, or foreign intervention.
And here is the part Americans must understand clearly:
If this happens in the United States, there will be nobody coming to save us.
No outside superpower. No rescue force. No second chance.
Freedom is fragile. Prosperity is not guaranteed. And once lost, they are brutally hard to recover.
Venezuela’s people paid the price. America cannot afford to learn this lesson the same way. – Eric Martin
