When I use the term "Institutional Capture," I'm referring to how high-ranking officials in positions of authority put their personal agenda above their professional responsibilities while abusing their power. Case in point, think about how Dr. Fauci and other leftist elitists instituted draconian COVID rules, which led to the mass incarceration of our God-given rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Or how a deranged Democrat governor from the great state of New Mexico just recently "halted" the right of law-abiding citizens to bear arms. She believes, "No constitutional right, in my view, including my oath, is intended to be absolute." Maybe someone should remind her of her oath to office, since history has shown us how "Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely." I'm asking my fellow Americans: "Will you choose your God-given Rights over Their Power-driven Rules?"

As I write this article, I think about how these power-driven rules are designed to usurp the cornerstones of our country, God, and the family. I'm thinking about the unborn boy or girl who is about to be assassinated in their mother's womb because she has conspired with a "medically certified" hitman; I'm thinking about the parents of young boys and girls who were groomed and guided into mutilating and castrating themselves by demonic elitists; I'm thinking about the woman in N.Y. who lives in fear because she was savagely beaten with her cane by a repeat offender who will probably be back on the streets before her wounds can heal; I'm thinking about that small business owner who's store is constantly robbed by repeat offenders who don't respect the rule of law; I'm thinking of the mothers and fathers who lost their sons and daughters to fentanyl; I'm thinking about the families of those Americans being held as political prisoners of the U.S., without due process, because their right to protest was deemed an insurrection; I'm thinking about the former president who is trying to survive, what can only be described as a "lawfare lynching" by a rogue special prosecutor and leftist DA's, from Democrat-led cities. 

The U.S. Constitution makes it clear that the government does NOT grant us our rights. Instead, it must PROTECT our rights. It's pretty clear that leftists want the American people to relinquish their rights, or to put it another way, as one lefticle (leftist nut) said so viciously, "Bow down or get beat down." I'll reiterate, "Will you choose your God-given Rights over Their Power-driven Rules?"

Fear not, my fellow Conservative Americans. As I continue to see the clear and present decline of our country, I am reassured by our righteous resiliency that we will once again rise up in a revolution of truth. We must use our "Swords of Liberty" and "Shields of Patriotism" to thrash and thwart the three-headed leftist leviathan: the maniacal Marxist, the conniving communist, and the septic socialist. 

I am driven by the timeless words from our Founding Fathers, "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity." 

I am inspired by the resounding words of "The Great Communicator," Ronald Reagan, during his A Time For Choosing Speech: "Well, I think it's time we ask ourselves if we still know the freedoms that were intended for us by the Founding Fathers." 

I am encouraged by the words of the undeniable Booker T. Washington, "Our republic is the outgrowth of the desire for liberty that is natural in every human breast…and the most complete guarantee of the safety of life and property." 

I am energized by the words and actions of Donald J. Trump to "Make America Great Again." 

And lastly, Joshua 1:5 emboldens me with the spirit of hope, for as it is written, "No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and of good courage.”

Whether it's the blessings of liberty, the virtues of individualism, or the joys of capitalism, again, I ask, "Will you choose your God-given Rights over Their Power-driven Rules?"
