Difficult Times

Publisher's Note - Reading this from Bill O'Reilly reminded me of how often I have felt frustrated because as he says below "millions of Americans simply don't care". How can they not care when the world is losing the best chance it has ever had to improve?

Difficult Times

By: Bill O'Reilly January 30, 2024

As the presidential election of 2024 begins to unfold, America finds itself in a bad place. Yes, political leadership is dubious, but it is a profound lack of trust that is truly eroding the strength of the country.

Let me speak for myself, a journalist/historian who understands both the nobility and the flaws of our society.

Dishonesty is rampant. Perjury is routine in court cases, so much so that it is almost never confronted. Why bother swearing anyone in if the courts tolerate lying?

We see brazen drug dealers, shoplifters, muggers, robbers, assailants, and criminal miscreants running wild. Few are punished. Rather, the police are the villains.

The President of the United States refuses to enforce immigration law, turns away from his son and brother using him to amass millions, and spends so much of the public treasury it is only a matter of time before the U.S. dollar drastically declines in value.

Facing that, millions of Americans simply don't care.

How can we trust our fellow citizens who accept corruption and incompetence? How can we have any faith in the justice system or in declining public education?

These are indeed difficult times. And politicians aren't going to save us. Yes, we'll have to choose in November. But a far more important choice has to be made in all our lives.

Do you want a fair and noble country or not? If you do, put down the cell phone and begin paying close attention to the corruption around you.

The Lord helps those who help themselves.

See you this evening for the No Spin News.
