There are four things voters can actually do to make a difference and address election fraud:
1) As voters, file lawsuits against your county election officials when election fraud is discovered,
2)  As voters, file lawsuits contesting school bonds, county bonds, etc. when election fraud is found,
3)  As voters, be election judges, clerks, watchers at central counting in your county and gather evidence of fraud to file civil and criminal lawsuits, and
4)  Donate to those doing the above.

 

Joining today is author C. Bradley Thompson who will be discussing his new book America’s Revolutionary Mind: A Moral History of the American Revolution and the Declaration that Defined It.

Clemson University professor C. Bradley Thompson reconstructs the new system of thought and bold moral principles that originally galvanized the American spirit of liberty and unified us as a people. The book is the perfect counterpoint to today’s divisive, post-truth culture. It argues convincingly on behalf of the truth enshrined in “We hold these truths to be self-evident.”

As recounted by Thompson, the Declaration of Independence motivated ordinary Americans to act—it inspired farmers and blacksmiths to drop their pitchforks and hammers and sign up for Washington’s Continental Army. 

These are ideas that inspired the abolitionist movement and Abraham Lincoln, and according to Thompson, we too can be moved by the spirit of liberty that links ideas of the Declaration to real-life actions. The book also presents a powerful response to The New York Times’ revisionist 1619 Project.

“There was a moral revolution that occurred in the minds of the people in the fifteen years before 1776,” says Thompson. The book uses the Declaration “as an ideological road map to chart the intellectual and moral terrain traveled by American revolutionaries as they searched for new moral principles to deal with the changed political circumstances of the 1760s and early 1770s.”
