E13: TPUSA and Courage

E13 Introduction

Of all the virtues that Americans possess, I would have to say that my two favorites are love of freedom and courage. I absolutely love courageous people and I always have. I have learned so much and fortified my own courageous path by those that have shown me the way. Courage begets courage, as the saying goes.

As Americans, whether we regularly voice it or not, are expected by the world, to be wayshowers on the paths of both freedom and courage for those traits are interrelated.

It is where the left and right in our country differ. The left has been fused with a Collectivist mindset. A Marxist expression where asserting your own values and principles is seen as threatening to the hive mind of the now radical left. Everything is seen as an existential threat to the Woke mindset- a disagreement, an assertion of independence and sovereignty, and certainly any act of courage is viewed as selfish and foreign to those that conform to the collectivist narrative that is handed to them and constantly reinforced.

It is a bit ironic that one of the gifts that the far left has given libertarians and conservatives these past few years is the gift of activating our courage and convictions. For example, there was no way we were going to just go along with the insane transgender ideology (pretending that biological men are women) or go along with putting authorities over parents in the care of children. Nope. We will never go along with that. Ever. Many of us libertarians just want to be left alone but we have not been left alone. So now everyone has to deal with an awakened conservative base. It’s a beautiful thing, in my eyes. A true Hero’s Journey for all of us.

Yet, it requires people standing and modeling courage, like my guest today. A young woman who exemplifies living a courageous life. Enjoy the interview.

AP13 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. Our Lincoln Day dinner is this Saturday and I think it is all sold out. If you are wanting to join us at this awesome event, go get one of the last tickets at KCGOP.org. And if you are going, make sure you come find me and say hi.

And go support TPUSA! I can think of no better national cause than Charlie Kirk‘s visionary organization.Thank you listeners and we’ll see you next week on The American Pulse.
