A Maryland man allegedly pretending to be a police officer was arrested after he pulled over a victim who alerted authorities.
Carl
Colston, 47, attempted to conduct a traffic stop on July 8 on the
off-ramp of Greenbelt Road at 201 Northbound in the city of Greenbelt. A
victim told Greenbelt Police that Colston drove up behind him in his black Crown Victoria and started honking and flashing his white interior lights.
The
victim signaled for Colston to drive around him, and Colston passed the
victim while flashing a badge. Colston then stopped in the roadway,
which required the victim to come to a stop as well, before driving back
behind the victim like a police officer would and attempting to conduct
a traffic stop.

The
victim told police that Colston put on a Maryland Marshal tactical
vest, flashed a badge, claimed he was an officer and called for backup
using a handheld radio. Colston then clutched his black pistol but did
not point it at the victim. He lifted the gun up, so it was visible to
the victim.
The victim told Colston he was calling the police and recording him, and Colston went back to his car and drove away.

Police arrested Colston several days later on July 13 at 9:10 p.m. after a traffic stop.
Anyone who may have had interactions with Colston impersonating an officer is urged to contact the police department.
Public Schools in Seattle Offer Sex-Change Services to Children as Young as 13 – Without Telling Parents
by Mike LaChance206 Comments
Public schools in Seattle have partnered with a group of ‘health
centers’ to provide sex changes to children as young as 13 years old,
for free.
The worst part is that parents can be left out of this process. There
was a time not too long ago, when children were told that if an adult
told them to hide something from their parents, that was a bad thing to
be avoided at all times. Now schools are doing it.
This cannot go on for much longer. Parents are going to revolt, and who could blame them?
The Post Millennial reports:
Seattle public schools offer free sex change services to students as young as 13 without telling parents
The largest public school district in Washington State is referring students in the district to free “gender-affirming care.”
The Nova Wellness Center and the Meany Health Center offer “gender
reaffirming care,” including hormone-blocking medications and referrals
for sex change surgeries, which are available to middle and high school
students in Seattle Public Schools (SPS).
According to documents obtained by Parents Defending Education (PDE),
the health centers are operated by Country Doctor Community Health
Centers (CDCHC) which offers “no cost comprehensive, trauma-informed,
and gender-affirming care, conveniently at the school.”
As stated on its website, CDCHC provides services to “transgender, non-binary, and gender diverse patients.”
Services include “gender-affirming medications (estrogen, androgen
blockers, testosterone, etc.) and injection techniques,” “hormone
therapy for adolescents and specialty referrals for younger patients as
needed,” and “referrals for gender-affirming surgeries.”
Some reports claim that children as young as 11 are eligible.
Not Once But Thrice: Drugs
Discovered Three Times at Biden’s White House Since 2022, Boebert
Reveals After Secret Service Briefing
by Jim Hoft37 CommentsSource: Drew Angerer/Getty Images
In a not a so-surprising revelation following a Secret Service
briefing on Thursday, Republican Representative Lauren Boebert announced
that cocaine discovered at the White House on July 2 was not the first
incident of drugs found at Biden’s White House, citing two other
instances within the last year.
The Gateway Pundit
reported earlier that Secret Service had announced the conclusion of
its investigation into the recent cocaine discovery at the White House.
Despite having narrowed down a list of 500 potential individuals, no
suspects have been officially identified.
Interestingly, the investigation has ended without administering drug
tests to these individuals, a decision that has sparked further
controversy and calls for transparency.
According to the Secret Service statement, “There was no surveillance
video footage found that provided investigative leads or any other
means for investigators to identify who may have deposited the found
substance in this area. Without physical evidence, the investigation
will not be able to single out a person of interest from the hundreds of
individuals who passed through the vestibule where the cocaine was
discovered.”
On Thursday, Lauren Boebert, a member of the House Oversight
Committee, attended the briefing “to get answers from the Secret Service
about the bag of cocaine found at the White House near the Oval
Office.”
The Colorado lawmaker accused the current administration of covering up for the “Biden crime family.”
“I was informed in this morning’s SCIF meeting that the Cocaine
Culprit investigation will be terminated with more than 500 potential
perpetrators remaining. We cannot allow this to happen. The American
people deserve to know who smuggled cocaine into the White House!”
Boebert wrote following the briefing.
According to Just the News,
Boebert claimed that this wasn’t the first drug discovery on White
House grounds in recent times. She cited two other instances from the
past year in which marijuana was found, a fact that she argued was not
adequately reported or addressed.
“This is the third time that drugs have been found on the White House
property since 2022, and we did not even hear about the marijuana,”
Boebert said.
“I certainly did not hear about the marijuana that was found in 2022,
two times, and now there’s cocaine on the property. So everything they
do is to move along to the next story. They know there will be another
Biden crime crisis.”
These recent revelations and the closure of the investigation without
identifying a suspect have further proved the corruption under the
Biden regime.

Biden administration to buy air conditioning units in push for 'equity and environmental justice'
The announcement includes criticisms of Republican efforts to cut back on the billion-dollar climate plans
By
Patrick Hauf | Fox News
President
Biden tangled with a reporter Thursday at a press conference in
Helsinki when he appeared to say the U.S. could not guarantee a
long-term commitment to NATO and then corrected himself.
The White House is touting its decision to buy air conditioners
as a part of a plan to promote "equity and environmental justice"
during a historic heat wave that it attributes to climate change.
A
Tuesday memo from the Biden administration said that heat wave included
record-high daily high temperatures in several areas of the country.
The plan cited its $3.85 billion Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program
that it said helped lower cooling costs and will provide air
conditioning units for low-income households for over 6 million
households.
"The situation is alarming, and it requires an
all-of-society response to ensure that communities have the support they
need to plan, prepare, and recover from these extreme weather events,
which are costing the U.S. billions of dollars every year," the memo
stated.

The
White House announced several new elements in its plan. It will
establish two "virtual research centers" at the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration aimed at improving resilience to extreme
heat, and a National Heat Strategy will be created to establish "equity
and environmental justice."

The
White House also said it will soon host a meeting with local leaders to
ensure federal funds and private relief groups improve efforts to
address extreme temperatures. A "Summit on Climate Resilience and
Sustainability in Affordable Housing" will be hosted to explore how the Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act can counter the heat wave they say is caused by climate change.

The announcement included criticisms of Republican efforts to cut back on the billion-dollar climate plans.
"Meanwhile,
many Republicans in Congress continue to deny the very existence of
climate change and remain committed to repealing the President’s
Inflation Reduction Act — the biggest climate protection bill ever —
which would undermine the health and safety of their own constituents,"
the memo stated.

Pennsylvania 14-year-old escapes abduction attempt inside shopping mall, police say
Police searching for 2 men after incident at Willow Grove Park Mall

Greg Norman | Fox News
Fox News Flash top headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com.
Police in Pennsylvania
have launched a manhunt for two suspects who allegedly tried to abduct a
14-year-old female from inside a shopping mall north of Philadelphia.
The
Abington Township Police Department said the incident at the Willow
Grove Park Mall in Willow Grove began around 7 p.m. Wednesday, when the
victim said she was "descending the escalator from Second Level to First
Level" and was "met at the bottom by an adult male."
"This male
identified himself as ‘Alex’ and asked the juvenile to walk with him,
extending his arm, as if to escort her," police said in a statement.
"The juvenile advised this male that she was underage and attempted to
step away from him."
However,
police said, "As the juvenile stepped away, the male grabbed her arm,
placed it in his arm and restrained her, as he led her across the
mall."
Police
are searching for this man, who identified himself as "Alex" Wednesday
night to a teenager at the Willow Grove Park Mall in Willow Grove,
Pennsylvania.(Abington Township Police Department)
"After
some time, the juvenile was able to escape from the male’s grasp,
screamed and fled from the male," police added. "Several bystanders
witnessed this altercation and stepped in to prevent the male from
approaching the juvenile."
An image released by police
– which appears to have been taken by the victim as the alleged
abduction was unfolding -- shows an unidentified Black male holding
another person’s arm near his torso.
"Further investigation
revealed that this male appeared to be working in concert with a second
male. These males left the mall immediately after the juvenile fled,"
the Abington Township Police Department said. "These males are seen
entering a dark gray Dodge/Chrysler minivan or ‘crossover’ type vehicle,
possibly a Dodge Journey."

Investigators
described "Alex" -- the man seen in the image holding the arm – as
having a "medium complexion, goatee, 25-40 years of age, with short
black braids, white shirt, with a large dark letter "C" on the back,
light-colored pants with a dark stripe, dark-colored shoes with a red
marking on the inside toe of each shoe and light-colored laces."
"Actor
2 is described as a black male, medium complexion, thick facial hair,
dark blue t-shirt, blue jean shorts, white and black sneakers," police
also said. "Sunglasses in t-shirt collar, lanyard around neck, and keys
hanging from front right pocket."
A
screen grab shows the vehicle the suspects are believed to have left
the mall in, according to the Abington Township Police Department.(Abington Township Police Department)
About
a half hour before the alleged abduction attempt, investigators believe
the pair approached another 14-year-old girl at the shopping center but
were possibly scared off when a friend walked over, WPVI reports.
"We're still receiving tips, really good information. We're receiving information from FBI task forces who are jumping on to help us out," Abington Township Police Chief Patrick Molloy told the station.

Social Media Users Erupt After Major Cosmetics Company Uses Bearded Men
to Promote New Product Lines (VIDEO)

Americans now have a new company to break apart following the successful boycotts of Target and Bud Light.
The Daily Mail reported Thursday that cosmetics giant Maybelline is using ugly bearded men to promote their new product.
The company first had “makeup artist” Zak Taylor promote a summer
product the brand had just recently launched. Then they had Ryan Vita, a
so-called “Maybelline Partner”, promote a new lipstick on its Instagram
page.
Vita in his video can be shown in bright pink lipstick, which the
Daily Mail notes is part of an Amazon Prime Day advertisement. The
company tagged Vita by using the hashtag #maybellinepartner.
In an another post, Taylor is seen applying make up to his face.
Courtesy of conservative activist Lauren Chen, below is the full ad featuring Vita.
Social media users predictably erupted in fury at Maybelline using
these nasty looking men to promote beauty products. Here were some of
the remarks directed at them on their Instagram account:
ericajeanette75 Wtf did I just watch? This really isn’t helping to promote your products!
hadeel.qasem7 What the hell are you!!! Differently not normal!! Shame on these makeup brands that support this nonsense!
toka.mohammed1 Shame on you .. stop posting this kind of people

Rev. Al Sharpton’s Brother Sentenced to 30 Months in Prison for Drug Trafficking, Tax Evasion and More
by Anthony Scott189 Comments
Pastor
Kenneth Sharpton Glasgow, the half-brother of Rev. Al Sharpton, was
sentenced to 30 months in prison for drug trafficking, tax evasion, and
social security fraud.
As The Gateway Pundit
reported in February, Kenneth Sharpton Glasgow pleaded guilty to
charges relating to embezzling $407,000 from a TOPS non-profit and
another non-profit called the Prodigal Child.
The drug trafficking charge stems from Glasgow conspiring with another man, to distribute cocaine.
Later in the month, Glasgow will go back to court to face a separate charge against him for assaulting a police officer.
Per The Christian Post:
Pastor Kenneth Sharpton Glasgow, the troubled younger
half-brother of civil rights activist Al Sharpton and founder of felon
voting rights advocacy organization, The Ordinary People Society in
Dothan, Alabama, was sentenced to 30 months in prison Thursday for drug
trafficking, income tax evasion, and lying to obtain Social Security
disability benefits.
Glasgow, 58, who also runs Kenny Sharpton-Glasgow Ministries
International, previously pleaded guilty to the charges, News 4
reported. “As far as we’re concerned it was a fair sentence,” Jim
Parkman, one of Glasgow’s defense attorneys, told the news outlet after
the sentencing hearing.
Glasgow pleaded guilty to embezzling $407,000 from TOPS and another
nonprofit he founded called the Prodigal Child Project. The prosecutor
in Glasgow’s case alleged that he may have taken more than $1 million
from his nonprofits without reporting the income, but U.S. District
Judge R. Austin Huffaker rejected that claim.
Glasgow was previously charged with capital murder back in 2018 but a
Houston County, Alabama Grand Jury dropped the charges in 2021.
The Grand Jury ruled “there is insufficient evidence to establish
enough probable cause to take Reverend Kenneth Glasgow to trial for the
capital murder charge” of 23 year old, Breunia Jennings.

WATCH: MASSIVE Cat Fight Breaks Out Between Several Crazy Ladies at Luxurious Las Vegas Hotel
by Cullen Linebarger897 Comments
The Daily Mail reported
that one famous Sin City hotel played host to a massive and nasty cat
fight involving multiple deranged women wearing trashy outfits over the
weekend.
With Hollywood writers on strike, one can envision TV executives
trying to cast these deranged loons in another dumb reality TV show.
These do not require hardly any writing at all.
The Daily Mail obtained
footage Monday showing a group of at least four crazy ladies slapping,
clawing, and attempting to beat the tar out of each other on the casino
floor of the luxurious, five-star Las Vegas’ Encore at Wynn venue. The brawl drew a huge number of gawking spectators.
The U.K.-based paper spliced
together two videos capturing parts of the brawl. The first shows one
lady pinning a second woman on to the casino’s red carpet. Both are
barefoot an the first woman’s buttocks is completely exposed.
WATCH:
With the first woman in total command, a third lady barges in and
punches a fourth woman in the face. The Daily Mail describes the fourth
lady as a friend of the first woman.
Then a brave man in a blue shirt emerges from nowhere to pin two of
the loons against a wall and stop the first woman from hitting them with
her nasty shoes.

As one watches the video, the person filming can be heard taking the
Lord’s name in vain. Also notice that all four women are wearing trashy
outfits.
The second clip from the Daily Mail then starts and shows the cat fight resuming in an equally nasty fashion.
The third woman is shown brawling with the first woman with them both
locked up together. They start slapping and trying to kicking each
other.
This goes on for several seconds before the man wearing blue and
security guard arrive to end the fight in epic fashion. The security
guard pins the first woman to the floor with her arms behind her back.
Damaged Solar Panels from Hail Storm Will Likely End Up in Landfill Because Recycling Isn’t Possible
by Jack Davis, The Western Journal416 Comments
A new report said that many solar panels damaged in a hail storm last month will likely end up in landfills.
Although some panels at the Scottsbluff Community Solar project in
Nebraska will be usable, many will be too badly damaged, according to Cowboy State Daily.
According to CBS,
more than 90 percent of panels are dumped in landfills when they are
damaged, defective or reach the end of their usefulness. As of 2030, CBS
said the panels will take up about 3,000 football fields worth of
landfill space.
In late June a thunderstorm dumped baseball-sized hail on a solar farm at a speed of 150 mph — destroying the facility in just a few minutes.
Cowboy State Daily reported a storm moved east out of Wyoming where it wreaked havoc just across the state line on a solar farm in Scottsbluff, Nebraska.
Scottsbluff City Manager Kevin Spencer told Cowboy State Daily, “Just by looking at it, it looks destroyed to me.”
Writing for the outlet, Kevin Killough reported, “The hail shattered
most of the panels on the 5.2-megawatt solar project, sparing an odd
panel like missing teeth in a white smile.”Completing this poll entitles you to our news updates free of charge.
You may opt out at anytime. You also agree to our Privacy Policy and
Terms of Use.
Grant Otten, spokesman for the Nebraska Public Power District, which owns the solar farm, said decisions have not been finalized, according to Cowboy State Daily.
“They’re still working through that process,” he said.
The report said recycling is not often a viable option for damaged or discarded solar panels.
“A solar panel has very little mineral content relative to the volume of the panel,” said B.F. Randall, who has written on Substack questioning the premise of recycling materials from the panels.
“So, it’s just not something that can be recycled in that sense,” he said.
“Polysilicon … can’t ever be recycled back into polysilicon. If it’s
fake cycled into sand it would be absolutely toxic,” Randall said.
Randall wrote in his Substack article that at best, panels have $6 worth of silver if it could be refined. However, he said, that’s not possible.
“You can’t recover the silver. It doesn’t work that way,” he said.
Stabbing at kindergarten in China leaves 6 dead, continues series of knife attacks in gun-free country
A 25-year-old man is in custody after a mass stabbing in Lianjiang, a city in the Guangdong province

Hudson
Institute senior fellow Rebeccah Heinrichs discusses Biden heading to
the NATO Summit, the U.S. providing Ukraine cluster bombs and Janet
Yellen's trip to China.
A 25-year-old man is in custody after Chinese officials said he entered a kindergarten with a knife on Monday morning and killed six people, including children and adults.
Police
said one other victim was wounded on Monday when the suspect, who
authorities only identified as a man from Lianjiang with the surname Wu,
began his assault at a kindergarten in Lianjiang, a city in the Guangdong province, at approximately 7:40 a.m. local time.
Local media reported at least one of the deceased victims is a child and one is a teacher.
Chinese
outlet Dafeng News reported the attack may have been in response to a
vehicular incident outside the school as an unidentified witness said
they saw a car strike the attacker’s child prior to the attack. The
driver of that vehicle is among the deceased, the outlet reported.

Videos
allegedly from the attack surfaced on Weibo, China’s largest social
media website, prompting outrage from users. One video showed a man
carrying a knife walking past the kindergarten’s playground. A separate
video showed several victims bleeding outside the school.
Within hours of the attack the topic was trending and the discussion amassed over 290 million views, Reuters reported.
"It's
outrageous to do this to children who have no power at all. How many
families will be destroyed by this ... I support the death penalty," one
user on the platform said.
Another added: "Why do such cases still continue to emerge?"
While China observes strict gun laws, the country has experienced several kindergarten stabbings in recent years.

In August 2022, a stabbing at a Jiangxi kindergarten left three victims dead and six others wounded, Reuters reported.
In 2021, another stabbing attack at a Guangxi kindergarten left two children dead and 16 wounded.
In 2020, a school guard was accused of injuring 39 people with a knife.
Another
attack in 2017 featured a man using an explosive device outside a
Jiangsu kindergarten, which left him and a few others dead. Dozens were
also wounded.
Chinese authorities have said many of these crimes are personal, are usually carried out with knives or homemade explosives, and are often attributed to neurological disorders or other mental health problems, Reuters reported.
Rapper Kodak Black endorsed Donald Trump for President in 2024.
Kodak Black is one of the top rappers in the world today.
Kodak Black says, “We need Donald Trump in office, forever!”
It may have something to do with the two-tiered justice system under Joe Biden that punished minorities and Trump supporters but gives top Democrats and lawless government officials a pass.
News broke in June that Hunter Biden has agreed to plead guilty to multiple criminal charges, according to CNN. The investigation into Hunter Biden has supposedly lasted five years.
After five years of investigation, the Biden DOJ found Hunter Biden guilty of TWO MISDEMEANORS and ONE GUN CHARGE!
Of course, this is a complete bastardization of the US Justice System. The serial criminal is slapped with misdemeanors after we know he was using classified documents leaked to him by his father to set up lucrative deals with foreign officials.
Hunter will serve NO TIME in prison for his latest criminal actions.
The same DOJ sent rappers Lil Wayne and Kodak Black to prison for years on gun charges. Both rappers were granted a pardon by President Donald Trump.
Bradford Cohen, a seasoned attorney, and representative of renowned rapper Kodak Black, expressed his discontent over the Justice Department’s decision concerning Hunter Biden’s case.
Hunter managed to escape potential imprisonment by pleading guilty to federal tax and firearms charges, a move that Cohen finds deeply problematic.
Contrasting Hunter Biden’s case, Kodak Black, whose real name is Bill Kapri, faced similar charges in 2019.
According to New York Post, the Grammy-nominated artist was found guilty of providing false information on a federal gun purchase form to procure three firearms from a shop in Miami. Given his criminal record, Black was not eligible to buy these weapons.
Despite pleading guilty, Black was handed a sentence exceeding three years in federal prison.
“2 tiers of justice? Kodak was charged for the same crime. Got over 3 years,” Cohen wrote on his Instagram Tuesday.
“Mr. Biden will not serve a day. Feels right? Do FBI agents and federal authorities take cases personally? I’m going to discuss this on my subscriber page,” he added.
In a Twitter post, Cohen said that in all his years working in the criminal justice system, he has never had a client get out of jail time after pleading guilty to charges like unlawful gun possession or tax evasion.
“After 26 years, I have yet to have a plea in a case with an illegal possession of a weapon and tax evasion, that did not come with some kind of prison sentence. Indigents charged the same way would be getting jail time,” he wrote.
“Even in the case of paying off coaches to get their kids into college came with a prison sentence. One even got 2 weeks, even though she was scoring no jail time. The system was so petty that they made her surrender to a federal prison for 2 weeks! But in this case nothing,” he added.

NEW YORK HELL: Madman on
Scooter Goes on Random Shooting Rampage in Broad Daylight – 87-Year-Old
Man Killed, Three More Injured (VIDEO)
by Cullen Linebarger549 Comments
Credit: BNO News Screenshot
The New York Police Department (NYPD) revealed
that a scooter-riding madman went on wild shooting rampage in the
Brooklyn and Queens boroughs of New York City Saturday morning.
The deranged individual shot four innocent victims including an
87-year-old man who later succumbed to his wounds at Jamaica Hospital.
As Fox News reported,
the rampage started in Cypress Hills at roughly 11:10 a.m. when the
25-year-old suspect shot a 21-year-old man in the shoulder. He then
fatally shot the 87-year-old man once in the back 20 minutes later on
Jamaica Avenue near 108th Street.
A 44-year-old man was then reportedly shot in the cheek while walking
near 126th Street. He was transported to a local hospital and is in
critical condition according to police.
Finally, a 63-year-old man was shot in the shoulder on 134th street. He was hospitalized with serious though not life-threating wounds.
Here is video of the shooting aftermath:
Fox News reported
that the shooter was arrested near 94th Avenue at around 1:10 p.m.
Officers recognized the suspect because an image was sent to every cop’s
cellphone according to WABC-TV. They called this a “critical message.”
NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban said during a press conference they recovered a 9 mm pistol and extended magazine in the scooter.
A firearm was recovered in the scooter — a 9 mm pistol
and extended magazine. Given the violence this person was going to carry
out I want to extend my deepest thanks to all the men and women in the
NYPD.
Assistant Chief Joseph Kenny revealed the suspect was shooting people at random and the motive is unknown at this time.
We don’t know the motive. If you look at the demographics
and pedigree of the victims, they’re all different. At this time, video
shows that he’s not targeting anybody.
He’s not following anybody as he’s driving on his scooter, he’s randomly shooting people.
The NYPD has not released the suspect’s name. They say he had one prior arrest for a traffic violation.
Grand Old Partisan highlights a classic of political oratory. In his I Have a Dream speech, Martin Luther King echoed these words spoken by Archibald Carey, on July 8th 1952 at the Republican National Convention:
“Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing, Land where my
fathers died, Land of the Pilgrims’ pride, From every mountainside, Let
freedom ring!”
“That’s exactly what we mean — from every mountain side, let freedom
ring. Not only from the Green Mountains and White Mountains of Vermont
and New Hampshire, not only from the Catskills of New York, but from the
Ozarks in Arkansas; from the Stone Mountain in Georgia, from the Blue
Ridge Mountains of Virginia — let it ring not only for the minorities of
the United States, but for the disinherited of all the earth – may the
Republican Party, under God, from every mountainside, LET FREEDOM RING!”
Here is the audio.
Reverend Carey, a Black civil rights activist from Chicago, was a
Republican city councilman and judge. He served in the Eisenhower
administration as delegate to the United Nations. The President also
named him to his Committee on Government Employment Policy.
The Gateway Pundit reported on Archibald Carey back in 2008.
Archibald Carey was
appointed Chair of the President’s Committee on Government Employment
Policy by President Dwight D. Eisenhower on August 3, 1957. He was the
first African-American to hold this position. Mr. Carey also served as
an alternate delegate from the United States to the United Nations from
1953 to 1956.
In 1952Rev. Archibald Carey gave a speech at the Republican National Convention. Here is part of that “not so well known” speech by Rev. Archibald Carey, Jr. at the Republican Convention in 1952:
“We, Negro Americans, sing with all loyal Americans:
My country ’tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing.
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the Pilgrims’ pride
From every mountainside
Let freedom ring!
That’s exactly what we mean —
from every mountain side, let freedom ring.
Not only from the Green Mountains and White Mountains
of Vermont and New Hampshire;
not only from the Catskills of New York;
but from the Ozarks in Arkansas,
from the Stone Mountain in Georgia,
from the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia
— let it ring not only for the minorities of the United States,
but for the disinherited of all the earth —
may the Republican Party, under God, from every mountainside,
LET FREEDOM RING!”
And, here are the famous words from the “I Have a Dream” speech by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on August 28, 1963:
This will be the day when all of God’s children will be able to sing with a new meaning,
“My country, ’tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing.
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrim’s pride,
From every mountainside,
Let freedom ring.”
And if America is to be a great nation this must become true.
So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.
Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.
Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania!
Let freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of Colorado!
Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California!
But not only that; let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia!
Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee!
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi.
From every mountainside, let freedom ring.
And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it
ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every
city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children,
black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics,
will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro
spiritual, “Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free
at last!”
