Here we are over eight months after the 2020 presidential election was certified by our Federal Legislature and the big lie continues to dominate our media narrative.

Almost exactly two hundred and forty five years ago our Founding Fathers were assembled in Philadelphia as the Second Continental Congress. Their proceedings were called to order on May 10th, 1775 with twelve of the thirteen colonies represented.

I have written in other places that in August of 1619 when the first black Africans were brought to our North America shores, slavery and racism arrived at that exact same time.
