Happy New Year!

This is the season of resolutions for the coming year, and the
practice must speak to something deep within us because its roots are
ancient.
The Babylonians are said
[[link removed]]
to
have been the first to make New Year’s resolutions, some 4,000 years
ago. In 46 B.C. Julius Caesar established January 1 as the beginning
of the new year. The month is named for Janus, the two-faced god who
symbolically looked backwards into the previous year and ahead into
the future.
Today resolutions are typically about health and personal improvement.
Let me propose, however, that we resolve to stand strong against the
ill winds blowing across our land.
Let us resolve
[[link removed]]
to stand with parents investigated for their involvement with their
school boards.
Let us resolve
[[link removed]]
to stand with those being censored by the federal government.
Let us resolve
[[link removed]]
to
stand with those whose lives are shattered by leftist policies on
crime.
Let us resolve
[[link removed]]
to
stand expose and stop the attacks on our elections and freedoms by
weaponized government.
We have withstood the worst before.
As the New Year of 1942 began
[[link removed]],
Hitler held
Europe, Nazi U-boats prowled the Atlantic, and America had received a
heavy blow at Pearl Harbor.
British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was in the United States and
spoke
[[link removed]]
to our
Congress about our common enemies:
> “They have certainly embarked upon a very considerable
> undertaking…. _What kind of a people do they think we are?_ Is it
> possible they do not realize that we shall never cease to persevere
> against them until they have been taught a lesson which they and the
> world will never forget?”
Later, on a train in New York traveling near President Franklin
Roosevelt's home at Hyde Park, he called staff and reporters to the
dining car. He wanted to “cast some forward light upon the dark,
inscrutable mysteries of the future.” He toasted them:
> Here’s to 1942, here’s to a year of toil—a year of struggle
> and peril, and a long step forward towards victory. May we all come
> through safe and with honour.
Let us take courage today from those words. 2024 will be a year of
struggle for the rule of law but let us resolve to embrace it with
perseverance and honor. (One great way to enter this important year
