For the Blue

One of the bills we're lobbying for, the LEO K9 Protection Act, would increase penalties for harming or killing a federal law enforcement dog or horse and ensuring that all injured police animals receives prompt emergency care. Please sign our petition urging Congress to prioritize police and public safety bills. change.org/p/protect-the-…

Indeed. As you likely know, several federal bills have been introduced this session that address these issues. These include bills targeting pre-trial release, including the SERVE Act, and those that strengthen penalties for assaulting an officer, like the Protect and Serve. It would help the cause tremendously if people called their lawmakers asking for them to support these bills. THAT'S where change is created.

@FortheBlue1 It is not okay. We need to start letting our judges and legislators know.

Boulder PD officer seriously injured after a violent encounter with a repeat offender. That same individual had just been released on a $100 bond. We stand with Lodge 78 and Chief Steve Redfearn in calling this out. Officer safety and public safety must be taken seriously.

@NatPoliceAssoc @sgtbetsysmith @NEWSMAX @RaymondALopez Two of the best!

NPA Spokesperson @SgtBetsySmith joined “National Report” on @NEWSMAX with @RaymondALopez discussing sanctuary crime

This is a disaster for the anti-ICE cause

@Devils_Advocate @Awake_IL Sad.

@FortheBlue1 @Awake_IL I think we are so close to the border that Police don’t even try to enforce the laws. It would take more than a paragraph to go into detail, but i say Democrat because of the sanctuary states.

People better start talking to their family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues about Illinois politics. No mercy.

@Shannon_A_IL Unreal.

Hate has a home in Chicago. Especially in the woke media. They hate the truth—and arguably, they hate We, the People. Sheridan Gorman wasn’t in the wrong place and the wrong time. Her murderer shouldn’t have been in our country!

See how the democrats aren’t scheduling a single rally for the poor girl murdered by a Venezuelan Migrant? See how they aren’t holding vigils? See how they aren’t posting speeches. Most democrats in office at multiple levels lack all morality and our heartless manipulators. Well on April 18, we will. We will have a rally right on the southside to make a stand against LIES, manipulation and lack of representation in Illinois! Join us https:// christianmaxwellforcongress.com/ProtestRSVP

@Devils_Advocate @Awake_IL I know Texas has received a lot of traffic from California. Has it been your experience that a lot of them are Democrat?

@FortheBlue1 @Awake_IL Most of everyone in this once great State is related to an illegal. They are protected. Nurses are paid $5-10 THOUSAND dollars to marry them and up to $50thousand if they get pregnant. This is TRUTH!

@Joe__Ram @Shannon_A_IL @Awake_IL This is sadly not just an Illinois issue. In my experience, they have contempt for those who dare to express dissenting thoughts, are successful, or both. Yet they'll gladly take our money.

@FortheBlue1 @Shannon_A_IL @Awake_IL IL Democrat politicians have come to realize the more abusive and incompetent they are the more Republicans move away, leaving a higher percentage of Democrats, who seem to love incompetent and corrupt politicians. Democrat politicians benefit by being incompetent and corrupt.

In the 5 years I’ve been leading @Awake_IL, I’ve never received as many texts and calls from people saying they are DONE with Illinois as I am now. Fully done. No plan to vote-just a plan to head South.

@BishopBurbidge No person is above reproach, and we must indeed focus on our own shortcomings. That said, I also know the Catholic Church asks us to walk in the truth and to call out anti-Semitism and other evils.

Like those who wanted to stone the woman caught in adultery, we often judge others. Yet, Jesus says: “Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” Instead of focusing on the faults of others, may we acknowledge our sins and need for God’s mercy.

@Awake_IL I will also tell you from experience that showing up, even when you're outnumbered, makes a difference.

Attending city council meetings, running for office, and supporting viable candidates isn't fun for most people. We have jobs, families, lives, so I get it. From experience however, I will tell you that those who establish destructive policies are doing these things and are united. The rest of us need to start showing up or be resigned to a life of packing our bags and moving to new cities. Harsh, yes. It is, however, the truth.

@MRMaguire @JeremyTate41 One I remember the most is the "Hosanna" song. Hosanna, Hey Sanna, Sanna Sanna Ho." Still doesn't compare to the classical music the Church adopted.

@FortheBlue1 @JeremyTate41 Omigosh... Memories! We had to sing many of those songs in my Catholic high school music class. 😁

And honestly, I’m a convert to Catholicism, but how did Catholics trade this for what sounds like bad 70s music, can we go back already?

@MRMaguire @JeremyTate41 The nuns did take us to see "Jesus Christ Superstar" back in the 70s, but those were exceptions.

@FortheBlue1 @JeremyTate41 Excellent! I was stuck hearing "Lord of the Dance."

@MRMaguire @JeremyTate41 I'm a boomer and lifelong Catholic. Most of what we listened to in Church was traditional music.

@JeremyTate41 The Boomers grabbed the music of their youth and never looked back. Meanwhile, younger Catholics want to return to more traditional music and their like, "NOOOOO!!" On the other hand, it could be the fault of the liturgists. Or not.

“There’s only two sides to this coin… You’re either free or you’re under communism.” T. Casey Fleming says even though many Americans don’t realize it, the U.S. is already in a form of conflict with the CCP and everything is at stake. “They are the grand puppeteer over Russia, Iran, Pakistan, Venezuela, North Korea, drug cartels.” “The 3,200-pound gorilla in the room is the Chinese Communist Party.” “The American people need to understand what the threat is.” “It’s the biggest threat of their lifetime.” “We’re in the fourth quarter, 2 minutes left and no timeouts.” “They need to be able to focus on one enemy.” “The number one enemy is the Chinese Communist Party.” “It is war. It is for all the marbles.” “The world will be won or lost in the next 10 years.” @tcaseyfleming

@maureenemonte Love him!

Whenever he speaks, my brain shouts, "He is the smartest man on earth!" And then he proves it. Over and over and over again. God bless Douglas Murray for reminding us of horrific truths so that we can remember and learn from them. And prevent them from happening.
