I want to address an issue that strikes at the very heart of our constitutional Republic and bring you full circle of how political corruption trickles down to our future, our way of life, our children, and why shows like the Conservative Commandos Radio Show, my podcast Jersey Sure, and the AUN Television Network is crucial to this country by getting the message out to the people. We are a nation divided by political parties, However, We should be united as Americans.
There is no doubt that politics of the left have weaponized our United States justice system. The scales of justice are supposed to be balanced, blind to status or political affiliation. Yet, in recent years, we’ve witnessed a troubling shift—one that threatens the very fabric of our Republic. This shift is nowhere more evident than in the treatment of former President Donald J Trump, and in my own experience as a congressional candidate.
Donald Trump has faced a relentless barrage of indictments, investigations, accusations, and even an assassination attempt. But let’s be clear—these actions aren’t just about alleged crimes. They’re about silencing a man who poses a threat to the far-left radical Democratic Party. Trump’s policies, his fight for the average American, and his refusal to bow to the establishment make him a target. If Donald Trump weren’t a threat, if his message of putting America first didn’t resonate with millions, these indictments would never have seen the light of day.
He is seen as an obstacle to their agenda—a barrier to the transformation of our country into something unrecognizable. They understand that if they can weaponize the justice system against him, they can do it to anyone who stands in their way. This isn’t just about one man; it’s about the future of our nation.
This kind of insider corruption is exactly what Americans fear when they see the justice system being used as a political tool rather than an impartial arbiter of truth.
Let’s not forget the role of the media in all of this. The media, once the watchdog of democracy, has become a mouthpiece for the radical left. They peddle misinformation and disinformation, distorting the truth to fit their narrative. They’ve spun stories about Donald Trump, crafting a narrative that suits their political objectives. The media no longer serves the public interest; it serves the interests of those who wish to stay in power, no matter the cost.
The Democrats only respect the Constitution when it benefits them. But when the Constitution stands in the way of their agenda, they circumvent it, undermining the rule of law in the process. This is not just an attack on individuals like Donald Trump; it’s an attack on the principles that this country was founded upon.
When justice becomes a tool for political retribution, we move closer to a society ruled by fear and coercion—a society that resembles the communist and Marxist regimes we’ve seen throughout history. These regimes silenced dissent, crushed opposition, and used the law to serve the few at the expense of the many. What separated the United States from the rest of the world is we came up with a better idea and the more we embrace globalism the more we move away from what made us different. Is this the future we want for America? A future where the elitesist control the world. We all know that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Edmund Burke once said that “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” These words are not merely a reflection on the past; they are a call to action for our present and our future.
Evil thrives not just through the actions of those who wish us harm but through the inaction of those who know better. When good people do nothing—when we allow complacency, selfishness, entitlement, and unchecked individualism to govern our lives—we unwittingly open the door for corruption, that leads to a fall of a nation.
Complacency, my friends, is the silent killer of societies. It whispers to us that someone else will step up, that someone else will take responsibility. But when everyone is waiting for someone else, nothing gets done. Complacency is a breeding ground for corruption, for it allows wrongs to go unchallenged and injustices to go unpunished. That is why our show and podcasts are crucial to getting out the Make America Great Again message.
Selfishness tells us to look out only for ourselves, to prioritize our desires above the needs of others. It blinds us to the suffering of our neighbors and weakens the bonds that hold communities together. When we act selfishly, we forget that our strength lies in our collective effort, that our success as a society depends on our willingness to lift one another up.
Entitlement leads us to believe that we are owed something simply by virtue of our existence. It teaches us to take without giving, to demand without contributing. This mindset erodes our work ethic, our sense of duty, and our appreciation for the sacrifices of those who came before us. Entitlement creates a society of takers, not builders, of critics, not creators.
Unchecked individualism, though celebrated in our culture, can also be a double-edged sword. When we place our personal desires above the common good, we weaken the very foundations of our society. True freedom is not the license to do whatever we want, but the responsibility to do what is right. When individualism becomes an excuse for moral relativism, we lose sight of the values that bind us together.
But We have a choice—a choice to embrace the virtues that have always been the backbone of strong, thriving societies. Hard work, responsibility, family, unity, faith, and patriotism —these are the pillars that can keep us grounded.
Hard work teaches us the value of effort, the satisfaction of a job well done, and the importance of contributing to something greater than ourselves. It instills in us a sense of pride and accomplishment, reminding us that nothing worth having comes easy. Responsibility calls us to be accountable for our actions, to take ownership of our decisions, and to recognize that we are the stewards of our own lives and the lives of those around us. Responsibility binds us to our families, our communities, and our nation.
Family is where we learn love, loyalty, and sacrifice. It is the bedrock of society, the place where values are taught and traditions are passed down. When we prioritize our families, we strengthen our foundation.
Unity is our greatest strength. When we come together as one people, united by common values and shared goals, we become an unstoppable force for good. Division weakens us, but unity empowers us to overcome any challenge.
Patriotism reminds us that we are part of something larger than ourselves. It inspires us to defend our nation, to honor its history, and to strive for its future. A love of country compels us to protect the freedoms and principles that make our nation great.
Whether it be in God, in a higher power, or in the inherent goodness of humanity—grounds us in something eternal. Faith gives us hope, courage, and the moral compass we need to navigate a world fraught with challenges.
These virtues are not just ideals to be admired from afar; they are principles to be lived every day. They are the antidote to the complacency, selfishness, entitlement, and individualism that threaten to tear us apart. They are the tools by which we can ensure that evil does not triumph, that our society does not crumble under the weight of its own neglect.
I also have a message that resonates deeply with the essence of parenthood and the future of our children. It’s a call to action, a call to be proactive rather than reactive because what we do now profoundly shapes the world our children will inherit. As parents, our primary duty is to safeguard the future for our offspring. We work diligently, we pay our dues, we instill values rooted in our Judeo-Christian heritage. These are the pillars upon which our families stand, the foundation of our society. With our busy lives we can falter. We become distracted by the noise of daily existence. It’s up to us to protect our children from the radical ideas of the far left that represent the few and not the many. I say this and I say it out loud, I don’t coparent with the government!
To conclude, I have to reiterate that the mainstream media, once a trusted entity, has been hijacked by agendas far removed from our values. It’s imperative that we, as informed citizens, reclaim the narrative, disseminate truth, and counteract the pervasive influence of misinformation.
We cannot afford to stand idly by while the very fabric of our nation is unraveled. We must engage, we must educate. It’s our responsibility to reignite the flame of patriotism, to uphold the institutions that have pushed our Country to the forefront of the entire world. Let’s stand together, united in purpose, unwavering in our commitment to safeguarding the future for generations to come. Together, we can reclaim the essence of what it means to be a parent, to be a citizen, and to be an American.
Edmund Burke’s warning is as relevant today as it was in his time. But we need not despair. For as long as there are good men and women willing to act, willing to uphold these virtues, willing to stand together in defense of what is right—evil will never triumph if the good are unafraid.
We must stand up against the political weaponization of our justice system. We must demand fairness, transparency, and accountability from our courts, our media, and our government. We must protect the Constitution and the principles of justice that have made this country a beacon of freedom.
We can say that we want change. We can hope that it’s possible. We can dream about making a difference in our states and our country. What I realize most is-it’s not what we say quietly. It’s not what we hope, and it’s certainly not what we dream. It’s what we do that defines us! That’s why Damon Galdo-a construction, took a leap and ran for Congress. That’s why Rick Trader and I co-host the Conservative Commandos Radio Show. We are in a time where the media cannot be trusted and has the power to sway elections, conservative voices and messaging must be heard. That’s why our broadcast and podcasts are so important. SO LET’S BUILD BACK WHAT WE HAD! Let’s vote for America. Let’s vote for common sense. Let’s vote for Donald J Trump.
