(Congress Report) – There are a lot of reasons why former President Donald Trump has such a massive lead in the race for the GOP presidential nomination. Sure, a lot of it has to do with his stellar performance the last time he was in the White House, but there’s more to it than that. He’s a man of his word, something as rare as a kitty cat unicorn that rides a magical rainbow to zip and zap around the universe. When Trump makes a promise on the campaign trail, it’s not empty words fueled by emotion designed to get you to cast a ballot for him. He’ll actually follow through and fulfill his promise. He has established a reputation for doing that, so you can count on him to do it again.
Ben Johnson of The Washington Stand wrote in a recent article that the former commander-in-chief has issued a promise that he will provide a pardon or commute the sentences of sidewalk counselors, pro-life advocates, along with “every political prisoner who’s been unjustly persecuted by the Biden administration” the very first day he sets foot in the Oval Office. The comment was made while delivering an address at the 2023 Pray Vote Stand Summit held last Friday.
With Trump, his word is his bond, so if he says that’s what he’ll do, then you can be sure that’s exactly what he’ll do.
“Trump also vowed he would prohibit transgender procedures for children and prosecute left-wing officials who enacted laws that facilitate children to run away from home and begin to receive transgender procedures. The 45th president shared these and other specific policies during his speech, which closed Friday’s proceedings at the conservative Christian summit, hosted by FRC Action. And he said, ‘Americans of faith are the soul of our country,'” Johnson penned.

The former president took a moment during the speech to reveal that if he should win the general election next year, he will immediately overturn the Biden administration’s attempt to criminalize its political opponents. And that’s exactly what has happened, thanks to the deep state element within the federal government that has taken control of the Justice Department and transformed federal law enforcement agencies into weapons to be used against anyone who dares to stand against their agenda.
“Marxists and Stalinists in the administration got a Washington, D.C, jury to convict five pro-life activists who are now facing up to 11 years in prison for simple acts of protest,” Trump remarked during the event.
“Five members of the Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising — Lauren Handy, John Hinshaw, Heather Idoni, William Goodman, and Herb Geraghty — were convicted in August of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act over their protest at the Washington Surgi-Clinic abortion facility. ‘Under Biden, others are being sentenced to 10, 15, and even 20 years in prison for retribution for their political beliefs, while Antifa and other groups burn down cities like Portland, like Minneapolis. … They kill people; they loot; they plunder, and they go free,'” Johnson’s report continued.
“To reverse these cruel travesties of justice, tonight I’m announcing that the moment I win the election, I will appoint a special taskforce to rapidly review the cases of every political prisoner who’s been unjustly persecuted by the Biden administration … so that I can study the situation very quickly and sign their pardons or commutations on day one,” the former president added. “Never again will the federal government be used to target religious believers.”
Trump then stated that he believes targeting people of faith threatens to destroy the very foundation of the nation.
“For nearly 250 years, our nation has been propelled by the power of prayer and guided by the hand of God in Heaven. It was faith that led the Pilgrims across the perilous seas of Plymouth Rock. They came to Plymouth Rock, and that was a long, arduous, and deadly journey. It was faith that moved our Founding Fathers to change history forever and proclaim that our rights do not come from anywhere other than from our Creator. And it was unflinching faith that inspired generations of pastors and patriots, chaplains and soldiers, farmers, workers, laborers, and pioneers to make America the greatest country in the history of the world,” he declared.
“It was God-fearing patriots like you who built this country, and it is God-fearing patriots like you who are going to save our country,” Trump continued in his address. “Americans of faith are not a threat to our country; Americans of faith are the soul of our country.”
“Through four magnificent years, I was proud to be your relentless champion for freedom, for life, for liberty, and for the great biblical traditions of Western civilization,” he pointed out.
With these fine patriots joining him, “this election will decide whether America will be ruled by Marxists, fascists, communist tyrants who want to smash the Judeo-Christian heritage, or whether America will be saved by God-fearing, freedom-loving patriots like all of the people in this room,” asserted the former commander-in-chief. “We’re going to take back our culture. And we’re going to make America great again, greater than ever before.”

Later during his speech, Trump discussed the radical nature of leftism in regard to the topic of abortion, noting that many progressives are all for ending the lives of innocent children in the womb late into pregnancy.
“They’ll kill babies in the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth month, and they’ll even kill babies in some cases after birth.” Trump commented. He then noted that the GOP will have to address abortion head-on, “and if they don’t speak about it correctly, they’re not going to win.”
With his appointing several conservative minded judges to the Supreme Court, we saw the overturning of Roe v. Wade last summer, which has made the issue of abortion a state issue where it is far easier for pro-life advocates and conservatives to outright ban the practice, saving millions of lives in the process.
This promise and these statements by Trump prove that being pro-life is truly part of his belief system. Those who want to see the vile practice of abortion brought to an end will definitely find this very appealing.

Well I have to admit this is one of the best speeches that Trump has given.
But we have yet so many other issues and for one our Trucking industry is hurting dramatically by the regulations currently in place and will eventually take its toll on supply issues if it isn’t addressed . Trust me I am a 50 year trucker and am very aware of the issues we need to get our problems resolved.
