If Not Now, WHEN?

All of us are here for such a time as this. Will you stand with me and others who are sacrificing their time with family & their free time to do what it takes to protect our state and our country from totalitarianism? I hope so.

I had a conversation the other day with a client staying at our RV park regarding the election in November.  They informed me they were conservative but were unsure who to vote for President because the choices weren’t “ideal”.  Are you kidding me?  President Trump is not perfect but he delivers on his promises and returns controls the government took from us back to the people. We have a candidate who has already proven what he will do as a president.  He was arguably the most productive President we have ever had besides George Washington.  Why would we not support him?  (If our current fake news media were present in his day, General George Washington would have been painted as anarchist, rebel, treasonous, and conspiracy theorist. Sound familiar?) What Pres. Trump was able to accomplish in four years would already be in the history books if our culture wasn’t so WOKE. 

The other candidate is Joe Biden.  What has he accomplished?  We have an open border.  We all feel the impact of the horrible inflation he has caused. Billions of our dollars have been sent to fight the war in Ukraine.  We still have “criminals” in jail for January 6, 2021 “crimes” and, to date, have not been charged with a crime, which is a blatant violation of their 6th Amendment right to a speedy trial. In addition, our military is now more focused on diversity, equity, inclusion and gender identity than training for military conflicts.  If and when sh*t happens, US citizens will have to take up their own arms in order to protect each other like never before.

During the conversation with the client, I was stunned that a conservative would even consider not voting for Trump.   There is a clear choice before all of us. We need to vote for Donald J Trump in November!  If we do not, our country will soon be taken over by globalists. Americans will lose their rights to own private property.  We will forever become servants to the elite.  We will not be able to make our own health decisions.  We will forever be governed from the top down instead of from the bottom up, as was the original intention of our Founding Fathers. Food will be scarce and there is talk of insects being an alternate food source.  You can see evidence of the plan everywhere if you look for it.  Don’t be fooled by the globalist agenda.  As I said, we are all here for such a time as this, and I believe we have one last chance to get this right. NEVER let it be said that on our watch the country caved into tyranny.

Regarding Idaho legislation, we (you and I) need to be supporting school choice, keeping abortion illegal, banning DEI in public schools and universities, supporting low taxes, reduced spending, and dismantling the bureaucratic rules that have grown like unchecked poison ivy infesting all throughout our state government.

What else can be done? God fearing people across the US need to read their bibles. If you want to ground yourself in truth, this is the epicenter of it. Don’t be lulled into believing everything you are told by the clergy.  Seek God’s word & wisdom to pick candidates that will implement His principles best. Some churches are telling their parishioners the church’s job is to “just preach the gospel and love everyone and let God do the rest”.  They won’t get tangled up in politics because “it might offend someone.” News flash: Jesus offended those who did not have ears to hear His truth.. That’s a fact. God did not tell us to limit our values to stay within the four walls of our churches and let the godless make public laws and policies. On the contrary, He told us to govern the land as He taught us…with a love for all mankind and reverence for His holiness. This way, everyone benefits! 

In the Bible, Exodus 18:21 says to “Select capable men from all people – men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain – and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens”.  Did the Founding Fathers stand down and avoid politics during the Revolutionary War?  NO!  They fought for the rights and freedoms of the people.  Churches need to include in their teaching our responsibilities as good citizens to vote for candidates that support godly principles, and who Jesus really is.  He is a loving God that wants the best for us.  We can have a relationship with Him.  He wants us to talk with Him. God, our Creator, reveals Himself in the most awesome book ever written.  The bible is filled with action, intrigue, murder, conspiracy, angels, supernatural beings, miracles, wars, global disasters, quantum physics, rainbows, a virgin birth and, most of all, a way to walk & talk with Him daily. 

I believe Heaven will be so unimaginable and magnificent that the human mind cannot fathom it.  His desire is for us to live with Him forever.  To walk with Him, we must confess our sins and simply ask Him into our life with a simple prayer.  There are no magic words to pray, but it might be as simple as this: Jesus, I know I have not lived a perfect life and I ask you that you forgive all my sins. I ask You to come into my life. Show me Your ways. I want to walk and talk with you every day.  AMEN. Fact check: You do not need to “clean yourself up” first. That is His job. He is our ultimate physician and He tells us He came to heal the sick (a.k.a flawed)… not those who think they are already “healthy” (Mark 2:17). If you seek Him, you will find Him; if you knock, He will answer (Luke 11:9).

This Republic is ours if we can keep it. It is not guaranteed. We must now fight to keep our freedoms & liberties. Therefore, not voting is not an option. Please join me.

Sincerely,

Senator Cindy Carlson, District 7
