Winning in the Supreme Court:
In July 2022, The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Coach Joe Kennedy. In a 6-3 decision, the Court upheld the right of the former high school football coach to take a knee in quiet, personal prayer on the 50-yard line. With this win, he can finally return to the place he belongs.
In January 2023, the Supreme Court deliberated:
In the Bruen decision, a six-justice majority struck down a law that required people seeking a license to carry a handgun in public to demonstrate that they had “proper cause.” The Second Amendment wins! Justice Thomas wrote for the majority, “The Second Amendment protects an individual’s right to carry a handgun for self-defense outside the home.”
In May 2023, there was a Major Unanimous Supreme Court Victory for Property Rights in Tyler v. Hennepin County
The Supreme Court issued a unanimous decision in Tyler v. Hennepin County, an important Takings Clause property rights case addressing the issue of "home equity theft," a legal regime under which local governments can seize the entire value of a property in order to pay off a much smaller delinquent property tax debt. Geraldine Tyler, the plaintiff in the case, is a 94-year-old widow whose home, valued at $40,000, was seized by Hennepin County after she was unable to pay off $15,000 in property taxes, penalties, interest, and fees. The County then kept the entire $40,000 for itself, as Minnesota law allows.
However, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that such practices qualify as Takings requiring the payment of "just compensation" under the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment. Importantly, it also concluded that state law is not the sole source of the definition of property rights under the Takings Clause, and therefore state governments cannot seize private property without compensation simply by redefining it as the state's property.
More Winning!
Also in May of 2023, The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency overstepped its authority to police water on private property.
In its ruling on Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency, which directly impacts Waters of the United States (WOTUS) rules, the court decided that the Clean Water Act does not allow the EPA to regulate discharges into some wetlands near bodies of water.
The court ruled that the EPA only has jurisdiction over navigable waters of the United States, not non-navigable wetlands, drainage ditches and small ponds on private property. Justice Samuel Alito Jr. wrote in the opinion that law only covers wetlands “with a continuous surface connection” to those waters.
The Sackett case was actually the second part of a 16-year long saga between Idaho landowners Michael and Chantell Sackett and the federal government. After the couple started preparing their property for construction in 2007, the EPA ordered them to stop and return the property to its original state.
The couple sued, and in 2012, the Supreme Court ruled that the couple had the right to challenge the EPA over the matter. The case was finally resolved.
“It’s a two-part victory based on what happened to the Sacketts in 2012,” attorney William Pendley said, “It is a huge victory for landowners.”
In 2016, Fort Bridger resident Andy Johnson took the EPA to federal court, asking a judge to stop the agency from fining him more than $16 million because he built a small pond on his property that had already been approved by the state of Wyoming.
On Friday, June 16, I posted a quote from Thomas Paine, “What is necessary to be done, must be done immediately. We must rise vigorously upon the evil, or it will rise upon us. A show of spirit will grow into real spirit.”
Perhaps we have not risen immediately but I believe we Americans are now quite vigorous about protecting our families, our communities, our property, and our unalienable rights.
The recent boycotts that are breaking Bud Light, Target, Kohls, and many of the MLB teams are working! Bud Light’s CEO Brandon Whitworth issued a plea, “We hear you,” but there is no apology for their WOKE actions or for insulting their valued customers. Anheuser-Busch, Bud Light’s parent company, has seen its market value plummet by over $35 billion to $99 billion, down from $134.5 billion, since the end of March. NOSEDIVE!! Whitworth promises the customers a new summer campaign. He just doesn’t get it! Because of the WOKE debacle, Bud Light is no longer America’s #1 Beer. They betrayed their customers, who may never return to drinking Bud!
As of June 2, Target’s value had dropped to $60.54 billion. As of the same day, Target's shares were down by 2.44 percent to $128.62, as shown by Google Finance's data.
Anheuser-Busch, Target, and Kohls lost a collective $28.7 BILLION in market value since the beginning of April amid backlash over Pride campaigns and the Dylan Mulvaney partnership. Separately, both Kohl's and Target have been caught up in an ongoing backlash after unveiling their Pride collections at the start of May. Kohl's was forced to heavily discount its Pride merchandise after only a week into the annual month-long celebration.
Christians see the Rainbow as God’s promise, LGBTQ + whatevers… flaunt the rainbow colors as they threaten and mock people of faith.
"Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." Thomas Jefferson
It is my belief that America is in a crisis, a constitutional crisis, a national security crisis and an economic crisis. All of these dangers to our Liberty are due to the policies of government, but We the People must accept part of the responsibility, as we failed to be vigilant patriots. We were not standing watchguard over our Liberties, as needed. We have failed ourselves but more importantly, we have endangered our posterity. Our apathy has possibly placed America’s future generations in great peril! If not corrected immediately, there will not be Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, property, and Prosperity in America, they will be indentured servants to this evil communist government, which has risen upon us.
It is not too late to rise up vigorously! It seems the more ludicrous the path the LEFT presents, the more Americans are rising up and saying NO! Messing with our children was not a wise move. Parents are attending school board meetings and pushing back. Americans are boycotting and “holding the line.”
Getting involved is Winning!
Today I saw a headline from The Daily Caller News Foundation, “Parents Running Against Race-Based Admissions Policies Sweep Local School Board Races.” This is proof that when Americans rise up, positive changes will happen!
Still Winning!
The Daily Citizen reported today, “Churches Win $1.4 Million Lawsuit Over California’s Abortion Coverage Mandate.” The regulation was imposed by the California Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC), which according to emails discovered during legal proceedings, issued its “abortion coverage” mandate “in response to specific demand from Planned Parenthood.” DMHC issued the mandate in 2014. YEP, Obamacare at its best!
Planned Parenthood continues to be a thorn in taxpayer’s sides thanks to the Republicans who absolutely refuse to defund it. Last I read Planned Parenthood received 47% of its revenue from tax dollars; this is taxation without representation.
Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), the nonprofit legal organization, filed the lawsuit on behalf of the churches. The First Amendment WON!! Two federal courts awarded the four churches $1.4 million, as they recognized that the First Amendment does indeed “protect the churches’ right to decline elective abortion coverage in their health insurance plans.” Elective!! Yes, an abortion is an elective surgical procedure, not to save a life, but to end a life, the life of an innocent unborn baby.
ADF Senior Counsel Jeremiah Galus stated, “The government can’t force a church or any other religious employer to violate their faith and conscience by participating in funding abortion.” He added, “For years, California officials, in collaboration with Planned Parenthood, have unconstitutionally targeted faith-based organizations. This is a significant victory for the churches we represent, the conscience rights of their members, and other religious organizations that shouldn’t be ordered by the government to violate some of their deepest faith convictions.”
Let me remind us all here, not only are they demanding insurance dollars, but they are also taking your tax dollars to fund Planned Parenthood (47% of their revenue is your tax dollars.) They are getting rich on the American people, while destroying lives!
The writer of the article, Zachary Mettler, commented so correctly, “Planned Parenthood and the Left are not ‘pro-choice.’ They are only in favor of one choice: abortion!”
I wish we were not in the position to have these constant battles; we don’t win them all, but we should rejoice at each win and be encouraged to fight the next one and the next one and the next one….
“…A show of spirit will grow into real spirit.”
America is not tired of Winning! President Trump teased us that we would win so much that we’d beg for the end of winning… NEVER!!!
America Loves Winning!
The ungodly are leading this nation (for now) and they are taking us down a path that is dark and evil, they hate God, they hate our Constitution, they hate this nation, and they hate you and me, We the People.
John Adams said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
Morality and virtue are the foundation of our republic and necessary for a society to be free. Communism is not about Freedom; Marxism loathes Liberty but Americans Love to be Free and Live in peace.
Americans Love Winning!
America is the last hope of freedom to all the world, we cannot let the shining light on the hill be snuffed out.
There are those who might fear we cannot find our way back; I refuse to accept the negative! We have been winning some battles and we must keep winning, for losing is not, and never will be, an option for Americans!
We the People must “vigorously” rise up and take this nation back, we will Bring America Home©.
“I can do all things through Him (God) who strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13
