It's Not Over: Patience Required
Recount in Wisconsin Soon Under Way
From the La Crosse Tribune: President Donald Trump's campaign said it would file a petition today [Wednesday, Nov. 18] for a recount in heavily Democratic Dane and Milwaukee counties after it wired $3 million to the Wisconsin Elections Commission Wednesday but no petition yet on the final day for a recount to be requested.
The campaign has until 5 p.m. Wednesday to file a recount petition for a statewide recount or a recount in those two counties.

So-called "Blueprint For Positive Change" Casts
Dark Shadow Over Religious Liberty
 Even with the 2020 election not officially decided as recounts and court challenges continue, liberal groups are quickly weighing in with their agendas for a Biden-Harris administration. The Human Rights Campaign, a leading LGBTQ advocacy group, has published what it calls a Blueprint for Positive Change that includes eighty-five policy recommendations that, in their words, will “improve the lives of LGBTQ people.” The recommendations undo much of what the Trump administration has done and puts religious liberty squarely in the crosshairs. READ MORE HERE
Even the US Supreme Court as recently as this past June acknowledged that giving special rights and protections to individuals who classify themselves as LGBTQ sets up religious freedom conflicts. The reality is the US Constitution clearly and unequivocally protects religious freedom. The question is whether there are enough constitutionalists in the federal court system to uphold what our Founders called our "first freedom."
Justice Alito Speaks the Truth
 From LifeSite News: "In a keynote speech before the Federalist Society convention last week, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito provided a stark reminder of the need to consistently be on guard to defend our freedoms, observing that "[t]he [coronavirus] pandemic has resulted in previously unimaginable restrictions on individual liberty."
While Justice Alito's speech is drawing sharp criticism, he merely spoke the truth."
Read more HERE.
Justice Alito is reminding us America is based on the rule of law, not the whim of man. In times of fear, such as now, it is much easier for people to be controlled more by the whim of man, so to speak, than the rule of law. That’s dangerous. The justice is sounding an alarm that we need to heed. Our constitution is designed to function whether we are experiencing peace and safety or national emergencies.
When It Comes to Vaccinations, Ethics Really DO Matter
 The Charlotte Lozier Institute, the research arm of the Susan B Anthony List, has been tracking COVID-19 vaccine research and development. One concern regarding the ethical assessment of viral vaccines is the potential use of abortion-derived cell lines in the development, production or testing of a vaccine. In a recent update, available HERE, the researchers verify that a number of vaccine developers are using such cell lines. The Lozier Institute hopes by providing accurate data, recipients can make well-informed decisions regarding any vaccine choices.
WFA president, Julaine Appling, says, "Moderna Virus vaccine is very much in the news right now touting a nearly ninety-five percent effective rate. Lozier institute shows this vaccine did not use abortion-derived cells lines in the development or production but some tests have used such cell lines. Pro-life citizens need to know this information as we move closer and closer to an available vaccine. Ethics really do matter."
