A “Red Wave” Won’t Save This Country

William S. Hahn

“We believe … that trying to achieve changes in national policy and direction, simply by the organization of political forces and without a sufficiently thorough educational program as the underlying base, is to act like the ancient Egyptians in trying to make bricks without any straw to hold the clay together.”

— John Birch Society founder Robert Welch, December 1966

In other words, a “red wave,” even if it had occurred, would not have been, by itself, enough to save the country. Just voting for Republicans and hoping that they’ll solve this nation’s problems is an exercise in futility. No one political party holds a monopoly on freedom or on tyranny.

For instance, look up how many congressional Republicans are supportive of legislation to battle supposed “climate change.” According to Deseret News, “Earlier this month [June 2022], leading Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives began to unveil a vision for climate action.”

This tells me, a dedicated and informed member of The John Birch Society, that either Republican leaders just don’t understand the battle they’re in, they’re ignoring the real battle, or they’re complicit. The real battle concerns liberty vs. tyranny. Tyranny is what will be ushered in if the United Nations gets its way.
