TikTok: The ticking time bomb of the US-China relationship
Since 2019, in the words of Chinese paramount leader Xi Jinping, has been waging a “people’s war” against America. The regime’s aggressive influence operations, theft of intellectual property, and facilitating fentanyl trafficking in America are legion. Yet some of the best-known China scholars and Wall Street investors continue to push “engagement” at any cost, with Harvard scholar Graham Allison recently describing the U.S.-China relationship as conjoined twins, sharing a digestive system.
TikTok has been described as everything from the greatest weapon the CCP deploys against America and the West, to purely a free speech platform, to a platform that must be kept out of the hands of the U.S. administrative state at any cost.

Ashley Rindsberg - February 2024
The Future of Truth:
How Technology Will Save Us from Legacy Media Lies
Over the past five years, the US has seen a remarkable change in its news media. News organizations that once at least wore the façade of neutrality have come out openly as partisan activists. Lockdown, lab leak, BLM, Russiagate and so many other critical issues were approached by the media not with objective fact-gathering in mind, but with a mission of driving drastic, sometimes radical change.
In this fascinating talk, Ashley will tell the story of how an innovative new approach to media is emerging from the ashes of centralized, corporate media right before our eyes. Ashley will paint a picture of a rapidly emerging future in which technology-driven innovation is revolutionizing the media as we know it.
Aaron R. Day - January 2024
Central Bank Digital Currency
The Single Biggest Threat to Human Liberty
We live in an unprecedented new age of monetary transaction methods. Most of us have some familiarity with digital currency or cryptocurrency. Many of us don’t know the difference between the two. And even if you know how to engage with them, are you sure if either of these will truly preserve your privacy and freedom? Or will they ensure your total obedience to government? Encroachment on centralized digital currency and crackdowns on crypto are already underway.
Join us for our 2024 Inaugural meeting January 9th. Aaron R. Day will explain Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and how they represent a form of potential tyranny recently made available through modern technology. CBDCs pose the single greatest threat to human liberty, paving the way for social credit scores, vaccine passports, digital IDs—in essence, complete tyranny through means of controlling our “money.”

Every purchase you make supports a business. Many businesses turn around and use the money you spend to support causes you abhor.

Kirk Cameron - May 2023
It was an inspiring session with superstar Kirk Cameron, an actor, filmmaker, and author who is dedicated to sharing universal biblical truths with audiences across the country. He shared universal, historically proven principles to build and sustain free and just societies for our children and a thousand generations beyond. He presented the values reflected in the National Monument to the forefathers in Plymouth, MA. Such principles established the foundation of our modern American idea of Equal Justice and Liberty for All.
Kirk’s book, “As you Grow,” (Brave Publishing Co.) is a heartwarming children’s story that teaches important lessons about faith, love, and family. Despite facing opposition from woke mobs and librarians (who often seem to prefer to host Drag Queen Story Hour), Kirk remains committed to spreading his message of hope and resilience.
