The night before Washington crossed the Delaware, he told his officers, “Put only true Americans on watch”. Washington knew that America was more than a land mass, it was an ideal, it was spiritual. Washington knew freedom wasn’t man’s idea, it was God’s.
This Christmas has many parallels to that cold perilous season 244 years ago.   The British and their Loyalists of 1776 were opposed by the patriots who called them "persons inimical to the liberties of America".
Today a large group of politicians, bureaucrats, and members of our intelligence community leadership have decided that the freedoms we so poignantly fought for are no longer necessary due to their self-ascribed ability to manage and keep the country safe.
This perpetual self-licking ice cream cone of risk aversion and self-promotion within the power elite has pushed our great nation to a tipping point once again.   @realDonaldTrump and other good and virtuous leaders who are trying to guide our nation along the lines of freedom
are being constantly attacked by a well-funded opposition whose only goal is to seek and maintain personal and ideological power at all costs.   The biggest cost being the safety and freedoms that our nation represents at home and in the world.
The majority of American people see the problems that threaten our freedom once again.   I believe that is why @realDonaldTrump was elected. The Praetorian Guard media, big tech tyrants, politicians, and career bureaucrats isolate, firewall, and
Censor accurate information from reaching the American people.  The deep state freely uses the tools of freedom to secure their positions of power rather than secure our nation.
They have lowered the temperature to freeze out innovation and success and have whipped up the winds of dissent trying to freeze the water so that the river cannot be crossed thus preserving the status quo and weakening our Republic.
While this self-evident truth is casting dark clouds on the coming holiday season, I look back to the famous words written by Thomas Paine on December 19th, days before Washington’s famous crossing.
“These are the times that try men's souls; the summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it  now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph”.
The elements are against us, but our cause is just and our mission is clear.  There are patriots this wintery season that are crossing the river and I pray that by God’s grace we will be successful in the preservation of our Republic.
