 Twelve Things I'm Thankful For This Thanksgiving


I'm sure there will be numerous people, maybe in this newspaper too, that will write about Thanksgiving. God's word the Bible says: "In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" (1Th. 5:18). While there is certainly a lot of hard and tragic things in our lives, we still should be thankful for everything (preaching to myself too) since anything more than death is more than we deserve (Rom. 6:23a). I'm just going to focus on those things pertaining to my Outreach and what I am or should be thankful for: 1) I'm thankful for the triune Godhead- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. 2) I'm thankful for the word of God. 3) I'm thankful for salvation by grace through faith alone in Christ alone so that born-again believers won't spend an eternity in Hell. 4) I'm thankful for my family, and a loving, caring wife. 5) I'm thankful for our country's founding fathers and starting the United States. 6) I'm thankful for the Constitution and Constitutional Republic God gave us. 7) I'm thankful for eyes to see, ears to hear, mouth to speak, legs to walk on, and the health I have. 8) I'm thankful for God's blessing of always having food on our table, clothes on our back, a roof over our heads, and always meeting our needs and more. 9) I'm thankful for our Church- Calvary Baptist in Vernon. 10) I'm thankful for the pastorates and jobs God has blessed me with as a means to [help] provide for my family and give me the experience that I have. 11) I'm thankful for the opportunity to have been on local radio and television, and for the national and local Concerned Constitutional Patriots outreach to inform and encourage about the governmental, constitutional and economical issues facing us. 12) I'm thankful for all the school mates, neighbors, co-workers, friends off and on social media, and brothers & sisters in Christ, past and present.


If we lost our current way of life in our country, or even if we never had it, we should give thanks. As hard as it can be sometimes for some people, God didn't say "give thanks just when everything is going good." Our country has already been declining and may be in for some very hard times sooner or later. The purpose of my outreach is not only to encourage people to get more involved by being "politically proactive" in various ways, but to also plan and prepare both practically and spiritually biblically. As I mentioned at my Church tonight, inflation is not going away and will likely get much worse. The $34 trillion national debt that rapidly continues to increase will likely bring about a great reset, full digital currency, and eventual government control, or socialism, or very tragic times that we have never seen to try to prevent it. So let's be thankful for what we all have. While we're still the freest nation on earth, we're not as free as we used to be with our constitutional freedoms constantly being challenged. But while we're being thankful, let's do all that we can to keep and protect our constitutional republic.


The next Constitutional Patriots Online Fellowship (CPOF) will be recorded live on Thursday December 7th at 10:00am through my Bret Pester-Brat Lovitz Facebook Page. It's a time of encouragement and information that includes the Pledge of Allegiance and National Anthem. Why don't you join me? Would you like to resume local fellowship meetings? Email me (see below) and let me know. Lord willing, see ya next week!

Weekly Newspaper Article 11/15/23

*NOTE* This week's article is mainly a local issue but could apply to other counties in the country. 


Are County Commissioner Election Rules Important?


    As I have shared in previous articles, I have not been in Lamar County long. It'll be 3 years the end of next month God willing. It's been a pleasure getting to know people here. My wife has family that lives in the Vernon area. 
    Because of the nature of my outreach, I get involved in the local political arena as well. Districts 2 & 4 County Commissioner elections are coming up (March 5th I think). There's an issue involving the District 2 Commissioner and whether or not he actually lives with his wife in Mississippi while keeping his address in District 2. If he does live and sleep in MS, is he eligible to run for Commissioner? This allegedly happened after he was voted in, about 4 years ago. Alabama law says the candidate must reside in the district. It seems to me, and to those I have talked to about it so far, that the intent of that language is where the person actually lives and lays their head to sleep. And according to those same people, this Commissioner has never shared with them that he actually lives or sleeps in MS. If there is nothing wrong with it as long as the person at least has an address and pays taxes in his district, why hasn't there been "transparency" and "upfrontness" (is that even a word) about it?
    To make matters worse, I have contacted the Ethics Commission, Secretary of State's Office, and Attorney General's Office, and none of them will take responsibility for dealing with this issue. The Secretary of State is also the Chief Elections Officer. Someone in the State needs to rule on whether a second address that's outside of his/her District and actually where they live and sleep, disqualifies a candidate or not. 
    Keep in mind that I write the articles about a week before you read it. Something might have changed during that time. It's possible that his Political Party locally will say he's not qualified to run as one of that Party's candidates.
    As I've written here before, I have nothing personal against the District 2 Commissioner, any of the other Commissioners, or the Probate Judge. He may be doing a great job. But I am concerned about what is known by all involved, and if anything was said or tried by them. Supposedly, he has opposition and hopefully citizens in District 2 will not vote the incumbent back in because of this situation if he isn't disqualified. But in the opinion of this writer and Lamar County citizen, he shouldn't even be allowed on the ballot. By the way, I realize that only his District can vote for him, but this should not be just a District 2 concern since he votes on issues affecting the whole county.
    Well, I know there are a lot of bigger fish to fry with all that's going on in our country. But we have to deal with local issues too when they arise. It's not about trying to dig up dirt on someone- the "dirt" presented itself even before I found out about it. But I think it would be good to see where our county and city elected officials stand on this local issue. Even if he has done a good job, because of the last 4 years and going forward with this alleged issue, if it is indeed true, I wouldn't vote for the District 2 Commissioner if he's allowed on the ballot even if I could, and don't think those who live in his District should vote for him either, but of course that's your business. 
    Again, nothing personal with him. He could run for office in the county and state he allegedly lives in or move his family to Lamar Co. District 2. I wish him the best! Until next time, Lord willing...

Weekly Newspaper Article for 11/8/23

 It's Constitutional Watson Part 6

Fellow citizens, does challenging election results = insurrection? Does a protest = an insurrection? Dare I ask one more? Does secession = insurrection (hint, hint)? The answer to all 3 of these of course is a resounding NO! Do liberals even know what an insurrection is? The word means "a violent uprising against an authority or government" and was rarely used about 100 years prior to Jan. 6, 2021.


The 14th Amendment Section 3 that says: "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability." 


This clause was put in the Constitution in 1868 because of the Civil War. And if you have been watching the news for the last 2 1/2 years, you know that certain "folks" have been using this clause to try to prevent Donald Trump from running for President again, because he challenged the 2020 election results and allegedly incited an insurrection. Thankfully, numerous cases have been dismissed and denied so far. But as Tucker Carlson recently said: "They're trying to take Trump out before you can vote for him, and that should upset you more than anything that's happened in American politics in your lifetime." I agree and would add that this should be the case whether you like him or voted for him or not. 


There's still the issue of keeping "them" from stealing another election though. The lamestream media is not reporting about the various precincts that had voter fraud. The night of the 2020 election, I was watching my home state of Maryland. Trump was winning before I went to bed and not just barely. Then when I woke up in the morning it had flipped. It's not impossible for that to happen, but it just doesn't happen like that. As we know, 4 more states did something similar. Go back in time 20 years and you find the DemocRats challenging election results when George W. Bush edged out Al Gore. Republicans didn't do all the nonsense DemocRats are doing to Trump. Sleepy Joe did not set a record amount of votes, a record number of registered voters didn't vote for him (many say more votes than registered voters), and Trump didn't lose the 2020 election. This and all that's followed has been a greater "wool over the eyes" than Barack and Michael Obama. 


This clause in the constitution is being abused. As far as this writer is concerned, because of that and how they haven't done anything to Ms. Rodham (Clinton), Mr. Rodham (Bill), B. Hussein Obama, Hunter Biden and Daddy Sleepy Joe, anything they try with conservatives, MAGA folks, and non RINO GOP means nothing. 


Oh, but carry on, nothing to see here, right? :-(

Introducing the Gimme 5 Club

     Fellow Citizens, Neighbors, Friends, and Family:


Other than family of course that I've known all mine or their lives, some of you I have known for a long time through various internet forums and social media, and others, including locally, I have known for just 2-3 years. If you have been following my posts and videos, you know that I'm a Christian that loves our country but I'm very concerned about our constitutional republic. 

Last month I changed the name of my national outreach from Fellowship of Concerned Constitutional Patriots to Concerned Constitutional Patriots of America with the local branch called the La-Fayette Constitutional Patriots. After prayerful consideration my wife and I decided I would stop working for an employer and use my remaining years as God permits, to dedicate myself full time to this outreach.

As many of you know, I do weekly short videos that I used to call Gimme 5 Videos (minimum of 5 minutes long ;-)). I'm going to steal part of that name and start a Gimme 5 Club. I'm looking for up to 400 constitutional patriots to help support me financially in this endeavor by giving just $5 per month. That amount represents the income I'm giving up to do this : -). I don't want anymore because I do get some social security (I know y'all don't think I look old enough for that, haha) and don't want to go over the maximum I can make without being penalized. 

Will you help me please? I believe that helping me is helping "us." I know I don't deserve your financial help, but this is what you would get for $5 per month:

1. Regular monitoring of reputable alternative non-lamestream media news sources about the governmental, constitutional and economic issues facing us.

2. Monthly (currently) Online Patriot Services live and/or recorded through Facebook, Twitter, Rumble and Vimeo. Considering going weekly depending on interest.

3. Weekly (currently) Concerned Constitutional Patriots of America Video Shorts (formerly Gimme 5 Videos) live and/or recorded through Facebook, Twitter, Rumble and Vimeo. Will consider more often including daily depending on the interest. 

4. Weekly newspaper articles (currently local and have been looking to expand).

5. Sharing these articles and video shorts on this blog as well as other blog posts from time to time.

6. With more time being available, working on articles for a national readership through Sub Stack. 

7. Regular communication and as needed with state, federal, and sometimes local elected officials, and regularly encouraging others to do the same through videos and social media.

8. Talking and writing about things including what can be done, that most if not all news hosts and talking heads won't, to try to keep this constitutional republic if God's willing.

9. Interacting with fellow citizens through the videos, writings and social media to bring about more awareness and get people to think things through more. 

10. Look into starting a patriotic and Christian online radio and/or television station.

11. Finish writing and updating a book that mixes fiction and the concerning issues facing us. 

12. Speak at churches and various meetings and events.

13. Encourage and help others around the country to have local patriot services/meetings.

14. Spending more time in prayer about these things. 

In summary, I would be a government watchdog, an activist also encouraging others to activism, and informing, warning and encouraging through the above-mentioned ways and more. I know I'm not the only one with these concerns, but I believe I have the life experience, desire, and a pulse on what's going on. This outreach is not overtly Christian and biblical, but it does have that foundation. 

God willing this will start in January 2024. Will you help me and commit to giving to the Gimme 5 Club? I will keep you posted as to how you can do that. Right now, I'm thinking it would be by check or PayPal. Please prayerfully consider. I know some may not be able to do this but can you spare 5 bucks a month? Thanks for reading.

Weekly Newspaper Column for 11/1/23

 It's Constitutional Watson Part 5


Returning to the series on the constitution and focusing on areas that perhaps are being challenged by some in the government, let me say again that I don't claim to be a constitutional scholar. The concern is that many, especially the younger generation, is not being taught about this important document and how it relates to what's going on in our country. Again, a Patriot is someone that loves his country and is willing to take a stand against the government if and when necessary. Let's look at a couple more clauses:


Article I Section 8 Clause 5 says "The Congress shall have Power To...coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures." Compare that to Section 10 that says "No State shall...coin Money...make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts..." I have discussions with people about the constitution and issues affecting it, often. While I don't claim to have all the answers, we better have the conversations. I welcome your input as well. As one person reminded me of just days before writing this, "the document doesn't enforce these things, we have to enforce it." The federal government has been and continues to try to get away with as much constitutional violations as they can. We MUST hold them to it. As it pertains to this coinage language, what can we gather from it? One, that Congress has the power to coin money. Remember, coin comes from the US Mint- a government agency. Cash comes from the Federal Reserve- a banking entity with some government officials on the Board.. Two, States can't coin money except for silver and gold coin to pay debts. States- our State- need to use this language to keep from fully going to digital currency. Since the Federal Government is destroying our economy and country, the only other alternative would be for States with enough guts, to secede from the Union so they can legally have their own money for the citizens. The idea that most elected officials think we should just go down with the US sinking ship is abhorrent! If we don't somehow someway make our State officials do something, that's likely what'll happen.


Article 6 Clause 2 says: "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding." This is commonly known as the "supremacy clause" and unfortunately is wrongly thought by too many people, especially leftists or liberals, that States can't have nullification laws of federal unconstitutional actions. States can't nullify the federal constitution or laws that aren't against it, but it can and indeed better nullify all federal unconstitutional actions.


I had another Patriot Service about 2 weeks ago. You can watch it through one of the ways listed below. Going forward, it will be monthly online. A time of patriotism, encouragement and information. I think it would be good and wise to return to doing them in person locally. See ya next time God willing.
