Mike Johnson Is a Hero
We are now trillions of dollars in the red as result of bankrupt entitlement programs that are basically socialism. These programs are gushing red ink because they are not about, and never have been about, American principles of freedom and personal responsibility.
We, of course, need to assure that those that immigrate to our country come to embrace the principles that make our country great.
But Republicans need to contend with a president and his party who have long abandoned those principles.
Enough Democrats do seem to understand the importance of defending our principles abroad, and here Republicans and Democrats must work together.
So it's not a matter of either/or.
Freedom is about knowing that we have choices, that there is good and evil, and we must fight evil everywhere by choosing the good.
Johnson has done us all a favor through his principles and courage. We have great challenges at home, but we cannot ignore what's happening around us.
