Donald Trump has officially announced his run for President in 2024. I used to think Trump should be the Republican nominee in 2024, but I have switched to Ron DeSantis. Let me tell you why.

The 2022 Midterm Election did not go how Republicans expected. There was no Red Wave. What can Republicans takeaway from the midterms to gain more Congressional seats and the presidency in 2024?

Fear is a powerful emotion. Politicians use fear to manipulate the American people. President Biden used fear in his speech about Republicans as a threat to democracy on November 2, 2022. Overcome fear with faith in God to live in freedom.

Political values determine the way we vote. With the 2022 midterm elections only 19 days away, it's time to identify the issues that mean the most to you, and vote in support of those issues. The audio version of this episode is available on your podcast app. Remember to Like, Comment and Share!

The Administrative State is corrupt, and I have a theory about how the corruption developed. Many of America's federal agencies are corrupt in the name of political power and control of Americans they disagree with. That is the why, but what about the HOW?

What are the top battles of the American culture war? There are many battles underway, however, I chose to focus on my top 6 battles by providing a brief summary of each battle. This clip is from Episode 67 - Battles of the American Culture War. The full episode includes more details about each of the top 6 battles, and what Americans can do to win the culture war battle in the name of Conservativism.

Episode 67 focuses on six primary battles of the American culture war: nuclear family, victimhood and privilege, feminism, evil hearts, children, and abortion. These battles are intensifying and must be fought, otherwise, America will continue to pass away at an even faster rate.

The political corruption of America's federal agencies has been exposed. The corruption comes from power-thirsty Democrats within the highest levels of the agencies--CIA, FBI, DOJ, CDC, NIH and FDA.

The Biden Administration continues to play the blame game regarding inflation as it remains above 8% since March 2022. The Biden Administration refuses to accept responsibility while inflation continues to be a tax on every American. Inflation has wiped out wage growth, and is costing middle class American households thousands of dollars annually. Democrats in Congress, the presidential Cabinet, and the President have not done enough to combat inflation. These Democrats want to spend more money; they believe more money must be spent to reduce inflation, which is not the answer. Turns out this inflation isn't transitory after all. This clip is from "Ep. 62 - Inflation Continues In America." The full episode is linked in this video, and available on the Counter Thought Podcast Channel. Please subscribe!

Inflation continues in America and continues to be a tax on every American. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) has been at 7% or higher for 8 consecutive months. Inflation has wiped out wage growth, and is costing middle class American households thousands of dollars annually. Democrats in Congress, the presidential Cabinet, and the President have not done enough to combat inflation. These Democrats want to spend more money; they believe more money must be spent to overcome inflation. This is Modern Monetary Theory and it is not the answer to reducing inflation. The Democrats in power do not have a plan, plain and simple. #counterthought #inflation #economy #consumerpriceindex #democrats #modernmonetarytheory #biden #treasury #federalreserve

Illegal immigration has real consequences for Americans. Illegal immigration is causing more strain on the social programs of America. There are less and less resources to spread around to those that cannot afford healthcare, housing and/or food. Congressional Democrats and Democrat mayors are now complaining about the effect of illegal immigration on their communities and politics. This is in conflict with their progressive Democrat platform of open borders and sanctuary cities. The chickens have come home to roost at the expense of American citizens. This video is a clip from "Ep. 61 - Democrats Face Consequences of Illegal Immigration".

Democrats are facing the consequences of their support for illegal immigration. Congressional Democrats and Democrat mayors are complaining about the effect of illegal immigration on their communities and politics. This is in conflict with the progressive Democrat platform of open borders and sanctuary cities. However, will the strain of illegal immigration on social programs be enough to change the immigration policy of progressive Democrats? #counterthought #immigration #democrats #sanctuarycities #openborders #illegalimmigrants #politics #usa Chapters 00:00 Introduction 00:19 Opening Statement 02:33 Illegal Immigration Has Real Consequences 05:14 Democrats Only Care When It Affects Them 06:17 Counter Argument To My TikTok Video 07:48 Current Strain On Social Programs 09:55 Will Progressive Democrats Learn Their Lesson? 15:37 Put America First 17:05 Closing Statement 17:30 End Card

Charges against Hunter Biden may reveal the extent President Joe Biden knew about Hunter Biden's business dealings with America's adversaries. Are President Biden and America compromised? The Department of Justice (DOJ) has a longstanding policy of not discussing active investigations or bringing charges when those actions could influence an election. I believe this policy is bad for America, and we the people should demand transparency.

All children need an opportunity for a good education. The public school system in the United States does not provide the opportunity for a good education to all children. Without an intervention, impoverished neighborhoods are stuck with low-grade schools. Fixing the public school system is not easy and it is not one solution. There are multiple components that need to be adjusted to improve the overall quality of public school education in the United States: home environment, funding, curriculum, job opportunities, cost of living, and more. The full episode is linked at the end of this clip, and is available on the Counter Thought Podcast channel as "Episode 59 - America's Public Schools - Erika Holzer Interview."

Politics have infiltrated public school classrooms. No longer can parents send their child to school to only receive an education. Now, parents have to worry about what their child's teachers are saying within the classroom. Erika Holzer shares with me her personal experience of politics in the classroom, and why she believes teachers are pushing their political ideologies onto their students. The full episode is linked at the end of this clip, and is available on the Counter Thought Podcast channel as "Episode 59 - America's Public Schools - Erika Holzer Interview."

America's public schools need improvement. Political ideologies and teachers' union corruption are harming America's children. There is no quick fix because of the interconnected components of education and society, but we have to start somewhere. Erika Holzer joins me to discuss her public school experience, what has gone wrong, and what can be done to improve the public school education system. #counterthought #education #publicschools Chapters 00:00 Introduction 00:25 Opening Statement 02:26 School When I Was A Kid 03:39 School Board Elections Are Important 04:45 Public Schools Are Not A Quick Fix 05:21 Public Education Statistics 06:35 Teachers Unions Fell Short 09:55 Education Attainment Levels 11:19 Erika Holzer Interview - Introduction 11:50 Erika Holzer Interview - College Liberal Ideology 13:03 Erika Holzer Interview - College Protests 17:38 Erika Holzer Interview - Politics In The Classroom 22:57 Erika Holzer Interview - Why Teachers Push Their Beliefs 24:46 Erika Holzer Interview - Teachers Union Corruption 27:37 Erika Holzer Interview - Positives Negatives of Public School 30:28 Erika Holzer Interview - Did School Prepare You Well? 33:26 Erika Holzer Interview - What Needs to Change? 37:08 Erika Holzer Interview - How Can Low Score Schools Be Improved? 47:00 Erika Holzer Interview - What Immediate Change Would You Make? 54:42 Erika Holzer Interview - Sign Off 55:15 Closing Statement 01:00:12 End Card
