I noticed something on the flagpole at my place of work this week: Old glory was still intact while the California state flag was in tatters. Makes me wonder if that is a sign of things to come.

In the eyes of one DOJ official, it is now a crime to even so much as criticize transgender mutilation of children in spite of a childā€™s inability to make well-informed and well thought-out decisions as to what to do with his or her body and to consider the consequences of their choices.

Texas taking measures to invite God back into their respective public school system by way of legislation requiring the display of our national motto which states, ā€œIn God We Trust.ā€

However, the vast majority of outgoing members of the Texas State Board of Education are set to vote on proposals that require, in short, a false education and toxic indoctrination to be imposed upon Texas children which propose the following:


ā€œThe removal of Eurocentric content and Christianity while including all other religions of the world

LGBT movement is combined with the Civil Rights movement

Children will learn LGBT genders and culture in social studies starting at age 9

Removal of negative aspects of globalization

Removal of Judeo-Christian development of democratic republic style of government

Removal of legal traditions of classical Greece and Rome

Teaching History with a focus on underrepresented groups ā€œexperiencesā€

1619 Project used as the foundation for Ethnic Studies

Failing to recognize Israel as an established nation

Texas Rangers will be represented as an oppressive organization

Replacement of NATO with the United Nations

Removal of Radical Islamic Terrorism

Removal of the Israel/Arabic conflict

The Southern Border will be referred to as a ā€œMilitarization Zoneā€


The proposed changes by the current TX State Board of Education are in violation of TX state law. TX citizens are strongly advised to contact and petition the current TX State Board of Education members to refrain from voting for imposing lies and falsehood upon TX public school children, and not only that, the TX state legislatures also need to be petition to take whatever actions are necessary against the TX State Board of Education if they should follow through with aforementioned proposals.

If all else fails Texans, pull your children out of the public schools and either homeschool them or send them to a trustworthy privatized academic institution.

School board in Fargo ND tried to eliminate reciting the pledge of allegiance at the start of their meetings, but reinstated the practice after a massive public outcry.

[The reason for why they tried to eliminate the recitation of the pledge of allegiance is because of the phrase ā€œone nation under Godā€ and that it is referring to the God of the Bible and does not have other religions in mind.

America was founded upon Judeo-Christian values. The Bible, up until recent generations, has been the authority which has influenced and guided the course of daily life and society. And yet in spite of a growing rejection of biblical Christianity, the Judeo-Christian influence amazingly still retains some degree of influence in our culture and it is an influence that the nation desperately needs to return to and embrace once more if we ever hope to Make America Great Again because that is where it has to begin.

If anyone has a problem with that, get the !@#$ out of our country and settle in some other nation more agreeable to you because YOU DONā€™T BELONG HERE!

The knowledge of our spiritual heritage is largely lacking, even among professing patriots, and it is vital that we learn as much as we can about that spiritual and moral heritage that inspired our founders and which the Puritans and Pilgrims before them had embraced and lived by.

It is only when we take the time to learn about what spiritual and moral principles influence the course of a nation can we determine what is truly wrong with a nation and society or what truly makes them a great nation and a peaceful and prosperous society.

What kind of spirit a people embrace determines the virtues that they apply to themselves in everything they do and what kind of society they ultimately become for better or ill. If you really wish to know what inspires ones actions, learn about what their core values are and what kind of spirit they have embraced.]

Update: The Contender's Edge blogsite homepage is back online.

[Praise God!]

There is only one thing that will put an end to this: professing transgenders getting shanked, thrown over a railing, or killed in their sleep and for the sake of the women, the sooner the better.

[Notice to followers and interested readers:

The Google-owned blogger admin. has, and it hasn't been the first time, censored and unpublished the Contender's Edge Homepage of his blogsite and have not told me why. I have tried to re-publish my homepage numerous times this morning but to no avail. I have reason to believe that my homepage may be getting blocked by some sort of AI or algorithm.

I am going to see what I can do with my page that might fool whatever programming in the Blogger host site system is blocking my homepage but until the issue can be resolved somehow, this may be my last blogpost from that particular platform for a while. I will keep you all updated as to what further actions I may take.

I am also considering other blogging platforms that might be less hostile to my blogging content. Any suggestions would be appreciated.]

Trump may not be in office, but the actions of his administration have borne good fruit destined to last for decades. It most certainly is true with a score of victories for our religious freedoms.
