Happy soon-to-be Thanksgiving everyone.  In this week’s boralogue, John shows that we should be thankful because we are blessed in America compared with many other nations. When elections and issues and fighting erupt, we should step back, respect one another, listen to each other, and if rights collide, find a way to leave each other be.  We live in a free society and freedom means you are free to do what your conscience dictates.  

Why is there such an outrage following the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States?  Dr. Steve Turley (www.turleytalks.com), Fine Arts Professor at Eastern University rejoins us to discuss the Left’s bruised post-election paradigm as well as secularism in the United States, emancipatory politics, and the rise of populism.

Is there such a thing as a free market?  Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute Nicole Gelinas (www.manhattan-institute.org) looks at healthcare and the housing market and posits that the market becomes far less free when government gets involved.

John’s quote of the week:

“We have been blessed.  As Americans fighting over things, we tend to get very selfish at times.  Maybe we need to stop forgetting that we have been very blessed and that we should be very thankful to God who established us and has preserved us for as long as He has.”

As always, join us online for our Section 6 intelligence briefing featuring analysis by John on important stories highlighting emerging geopolitical trends around the world.
