Do you look at the headlines and feel stress rising within your chest?

I do. Quite often, to be honest, although I didn’t entirely realize it until I unplugged for a few days in early-January. Thus, I missed a lot of the Chicken Little hysteria in the wake of Jan. 6 events in the Capitol.

The sad fact is we are in a brave new world and our headlines reflect that. But in reading those headlines, we can do one of two things: we can indulge in and succumb to the fears (toward which headlines are driving us), or we can choose to overcome those fears, pursuing a positive vision and presumably, in the process, helping to deliver a more productive outcome.

We seek the latter at the Charlemagne Institute.

So many Middle Americans are demoralized after the 2020 election. We know we are up against a Goliath and want to fight back, but the depth and width of the entrenched corruption are daunting. How do we overcome the Deep State, Big Tech, globalist elite, and Leftist academia and media? Is it enough to fit slingshots with pebbles? Or do we need something more?

Frankly, information and insight are vital for the preservation of our communities and our way of life. In my role as Editor, I am privileged not only to commission and read our many fine authors, but also to learn and gain strength from our wonderful audience, from whom I hear routinely.

Indeed, after reading a recent article, one reader commented, “Excellent article filled with practical ideas and more importantly HOPE… thank you….”

This type of enthusiasm and energy is inspiring. And we share it with you in the hopes to infuse anyone demoralized and wondering what happened to their country with just such hope and ideas.

But we can’t do this without your support. Will you consider joining with us in this campaign by signing up as a member?
 
Your contribution of $50, $100, or even $250 will go a long way in helping us stand strong as a candle in the darkness. We wish it weren’t so, but we must struggle and sacrifice to preserve our country and freedoms. The battle is real, and we need you.
