Favorite Quotes
"Our founders right now would be rolling over. I mean, if they were all brought back to life for a month and they saw 81-year-old Nancy Pelosi running off the mouth like this, I can assure you that muskets would be loaded." - Jim Larkin
"I'll tell you where it's coming from (lawlessness). It's coming from the Democrats, supporting people burning down their cities. It's coming from Democrats launching a war on the police." - Jim Larkin
"When you're down there with your family in these democratically run cities, you cannot be the guy who is just taking pictures and having a good time." - Jim Larkin
"The United States of America that I know is not systematically racist. I know a lot of cops, a thousand of cops. I don't know a racist cop. Every cop I know is doing the right thing. If you're a black guy and you got a gun and you're up to no good with it, you're going to get arrested. If you're a white guy and you got a gun and you're up to no good with it, you're going to get arrested." - Jim Larkin

Favorite Quotes
"I believe that the federal government is lost. I don't think in our lifetime, we're going to be able to rein that federal government in. I think the way to win this country back is through state governments. I think the way to win it back is to send people to understand the state sovereignty and are willing to stand up to the federal government and say, 'not today'." - Jim Larkin
"Medical freedom means allowing individuals the opportunity to make their own healthcare choices." - Jonah Schulz
"When you have an unconstitutional mandate coming down across states, you have a whole lot of people trying to represent the people, but nobody is there stepping up." - Jim Larkin
"We complain of things like term limits. But we have the power over all these things, but we don't exercise it." - Jonah Schulz
"The Department of Education is just one example of the bureaucratic sponge that just soaks up all of the taxpayer money. It goes to nowhere, except the pockets of bureaucrats." - Jonah Schulz
"Unless you have this movement where you're gathering people who believe the things that we do from coast to coast and really have the backing to the people, you're not going see changes. It's so important to cultivate a generation of leaders, but also the grassroots that these individuals are going to need to be able to take on these huge challenges that the government, the bureaucracy, The Wall Street, and Silicon Valley don’t want them to take on." - Jonah Schulz
"We have the right to vote, the right to defend ourselves. You do lose certain abilities to operate within the confines of society when you break the rules of that society." Jonah Schulz
"When you have a passion for benefiting and helping the life of your fellow man, I don't believe that there's an age requirement for that." - Jonah Schulz

Favorite Quotes
"With the federal government currently the way they are, having a constitutional sheriff I think is more important to everybody with each election. Are you going to protect this county when the federal government comes in here to try to take our guns? Are you going to protect this county when the federal government comes in here and says, we can't speak out against them?" - Jim Larkin
"From the beginning, it's the constitution with me. It's not waffling to whatever political win or group wants it. Right or wrong, some groups didn't want it, but they knew where I stood." - Sheriff Fredrick Stevens
"In today's cancel culture and attack mode mentality, it is hard to take a stand on anything. I am not anti-vaccine and I am not pro-vaccine. All I am is pro-freedom! I am for each person's ability and responsibility to decide for themselves in cooperation with their family doctor whether to get the vaccine or not." - Sheriff Fredrick Stevens
"I am not running for reelection. I'm running to make things right out here to stop the lawsuits, to bring stability, and to bring the constitution back in our country." - Sheriff Fredrick Stevens

Being aware or well informed about a political or cultural context is a good thing.

Favorite Quotes
"The woke mob is trying to control what we can say, what we can't say, and how we can say it. You can have and take everything away from you that is important to you. And you can sit back and be quiet about it because you're scared. You're scared that you're going to be labeled something or you could stand up and you could fight against this woke mob. And you can take this country back and you can take the things back that are important to this country." - Jim Larking
"Woke mob is a nightmare for anybody that they decide to go after. They will chew you up and spit you out." - Dan Wilkinson
"Conservatives are afraid to speak out against the left because they're going to be labeled a racist. They're going to be labeled an extremist. And as soon as the woke mob gets a hold of that, they're going to attack you. They're going to attack your job. They're going to attack your livelihood. They're going to attack your family and they're going to try to cancel everything that you're ever been or ever worked for." - Jim Larking
"I look into a lot of conspiracies and I don't always think that they're true. But I do realize the basis behind them and you'd be surprised at how much stuff is out there that has potential." - Jeff
"Anything that you see come across the news is optics, it's predictive programming. It's to acclimate your brain to the sound of those words to get used to them later on. And when it actually happens, it's not a shock. And there's not a refusal to accept it because it's familiar." - Jeff

Favorite Quotes
"If you're a Democrat, Republican, or whatever you're running, your party has to like you."
"Conservatives are sick of letting the left dictate how we can talk, what we can say, and what we can believe."
"The fact that I want to have an opinion that is different than the left should not affect my employment, should not affect my kids at school, or I shouldn't get doxed."
"We know this to be true, a year ago today we were energy independent and now we're not. And I guess that's our problem with this administration."
"We need to stop putting each other into these little boxes of all the Liberals or all the Republicans. It's not helping us at all. If we can get people, more of who are in the middle, to take part in the local government and have the conversations, I think we'd see we have a lot more in common or that we want to get done and accomplish together."

"It's easier to fool somebody than convince them that they've been fooled."
"So many people with those conservative values move out of those cities and then they could have voted for the change that they really wanted."

"The constitution never tells the government what they are not allowed to do. The constitution tells the government what they are allowed to do. And if it is not there, they are allowed to do it."
