Liberty Lighthouse20220816 - Liberty MinuteI have a theory about the raid on Mar-a-Lago. I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. Maybe the raid wasn't about the National Archives documents or the January 6th committee. Maybe it was about stealing evidence and stopping Trump's lawsuit. What lawsuit? The Criminal Organization RICO lawsuit Trump filed in Florida against Hillary Clinton, the DNC, and many others. The case that Bruce Reinhart was the judge for until he recused himself in June. Yes, the same Judge Bruce Reinhart that signed the warrant. Shouldn't he have done the sam...2022-08-1601 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220815 - Liberty MinuteThe FBI oversteps again, this time in Missouri. I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has randomly audited 24 sheriff’s offices in Missouri in search of concealed carry weapon details, but they all refused to comply, according to law enforcement authorities. Some of the Sheriffs have answered procedural questions, but none have given any details about any specific carry permits. Good! There are zero federal laws governing carry permits, concealed or otherwise. The FBI has no jurisdiction here, nor does any other federal age...2022-08-1501 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220812 - Liberty MinuteWhere you spend money says a lot about what you value. I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. Rather than 87,000 IRS agents, what if the federal government funded 87,000 school resource officers? That would be a school resource officer for two-thirds of the K-12 schools in the United States. That would be a big accomplishment if school shootings were really a priority. Or, it could be a border patrol agent every 4/10 mile along our southern border to stop the fentanyl flowing in; Fentanyl that has become the #1 killer of people 18-45 years o...2022-08-1201 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220811 - Liberty MinuteThe Inflation Reduction Act does everything but reduce inflation. I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. Speaker Pelosi said that the House will pass the $430 billion bill tomorrow. In a letter to her Democrat colleagues, she called the bill "life-changing legislation." Also known as the climate, tax, Healthcare, and anything but inflation reducing bill, the relabeled Build Back Better bill will definitely be life-changing. This bill is going to make absolutely everything you buy more expensive while drastically increasing the chances of getting audited by the IRS. T...2022-08-1101 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220810 - Liberty MinuteSoon, the IRS will have more armed agents than the country has active duty Marines. I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. The militarization of the federal government should be a red flag. Back in 2015, the Department of Justice reported that there were 40 federal agencies with more than 100,000 officers authorized to carry guns. So, while the federal government is making it more difficult for you to buy firearms and trying to restrict what types of firearms you're allowed to buy, they are arming themselves. Including the Department...2022-08-1001 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220809 - Liberty MinuteDrastic measures are needed. I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. The current national debt is almost $31 Trillion. Let's give that some perspective. If our government suddenly managed to pass a balanced budget AND paid $1 billion on the principle of the national debt annually, it would take over 30,000 years to pay it off. The federal government revenue is almost $4.5 trillion. $2.5 trillion, or 55%, goes to Medicare and Social Security, leaving $2 trillion for EVERYTHING else. The reality is that we add $1.5 trillion to the debt every year. Yo...2022-08-0901 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220808 - Liberty MinuteKamala broke the Senate tie. I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. A party-line vote on the ironically named Inflation Reduction Act caused Vice President Harris cast the deciding vote to pass the bill. There are so many problems with this bill. First, inflation is a "right now" problem that will be made worse by record spending on clean energy. Second, green energy is a noble cause, but all the spending in this bill will have little to no effect for years while making the immediate problem of inflation w...2022-08-0801 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220805 - Liberty MinuteBoy who cried wolf said what? I'm Peter Serefine, and this is today's Liberty Minute. The Biden administration has declared monkeypox a public health emergency. Yes, five children and a pregnant woman have Monkey Pox, but 98% of cases are men who have sex with men. Only five people in the world have died from the disease. All of that is beside my point. By declaring a public health emergency federal money, your tax money is now up for grabs, again. We are a nation that is supposed to be 50 es...2022-08-0501 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220804 - Liberty MinuteBiden really wants women to have abortions. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Last month Biden signed an executive order to protect the right of women to have abortions in life-threatening situations. That was reasonable. Yesterday, Biden signed an executive order that lays the groundwork for Medicare to pay for travel to access abortions. This should raise some feathers. It is against federal law for tax dollars to pay for abortion. How is paying for required to access an abortion any different? Federal money should never go to su...2022-08-0401 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220803 - Liberty MinuteToo much government is the problem. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. In June, the Education Department announced an overhaul of Title IX, the federal law prohibiting “sex-based discrimination” in federally funded educational settings. Most people are talking about the definitions of sex or gender, but I want to talk about the last part of that statement, "in federally funded educational settings." That little bit sums up what is wrong with our entire system today. Federal tax dollars are in every aspect of our lives. Wherever federal money is spent, the fe...2022-08-0301 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220802 - Liberty MinuteLet's talk vaccine mandates, shall we? I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Doctor Birx has admitted something that many of us were shunned and censored for saying just a few months ago. The covid "vaccine" was never going to stop the transmission of the virus. With Biden and other high-profile people getting jabbed and still getting covid then getting covid again, the stop the spread argument should be entirely off the table. The mRNA jab may very well help keep you from getting deathly sick. If that is true, then th...2022-08-0201 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220729 - Liberty MinuteInflation reduction spending? I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. The Inflation reduction spending package currently being suggested by Congress may be the most idiotic thing I've ever seen Congress try, and that is saying a lot. Inflation is when money becomes worth less. Money becomes worth less when there is too much money in the market. A spending bill, ANY spending bill that puts more money in the market, will only make Inflation even worse. Couple that with raising taxes, and you get a complete collapse of the e...2022-07-2901 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220728 - Liberty MinuteResident Biden has set another record. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. As of two days ago, 609 dead bodies have been found on the US side of our southern border this year. The record was previously set by the Biden administration last year. In Biden’s first year in office, 566 dead bodies were found. By comparison, before the Biden Administration, in 2020, 247 bodies were found. The lackadaisical immigration policy of this administration is encouraging people to seek help from cartels and smugglers for the long and dangerous journey. W...2022-07-2801 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220727 - Liberty MinuteSecurity for them, but not for us. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. House lawmakers are being offered up to $10,000 to beef up their home security systems amid increasing threats of violence. They can also get up to $150 per month to pay for the system service. To summarize, lawmakers who each earn $174,000 a year and each have a $1.3 million expense account will get more for security because of threats. Meanwhile, out in the real world, crime rates across the country are skyrocketing. 145 law enforcement have been killed in th...2022-07-2701 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220726 - Liberty MinuteApparently, the US Strategic Petroleum Reserves are for the entire world. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Over the past year, the Biden administration has released nearly half of our nation's strategic petroleum reserve, supposedly to help the gas prices in the United States. Logic would suggest that those reserves were released to US companies to help US citizens, but, not surprisingly, that was not the case. The American reserves were released, and at least some of it was offered in an international auction. Records show that at...2022-07-2601 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220725 - Liberty MinuteDidn't America learn anything from McCarthyism? I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. From 1950 to 1954, Senator Joseph McCarthy led congressional hearings and investigations searching for communism. With little evidence, Senator McCarthy ruined careers with wild accusations and televised congressional hearings. That should sound familiar. Since 2016, Representative Adam Schiff has been doing the same thing, except instead of looking for communists, he is looking for anyone who supports Trump or believes in a small limited government. Schiff's hatred of Trump and love of cameras has become a McCarthy-istic crusade. Schiff r...2022-07-2501 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220722 - Liberty MinuteIs a civil war imminent? I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Over 50% of a recent survey expect a civil war in the United States in the next few years. Lately, it is often said that our nation is more divided than ever. Those who say that don't know their own national history. The country may be more partisan than at any point in our lifetime, but not in our country's. Our country has seen several rebellions. We have had states considered secession both before and after the Civil Wa...2022-07-2201 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220721 - Liberty MinutePaper money will destroy America. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. In 1791 Thomas Pain blamed paper money for England's financial problems. Paper money was partially to blame for Shay's Rebellion and US money problems between the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution. James Madison fought against paper money for his entire political career. Paper money has caused the collapse of countries and empires worldwide for centuries, and our founding fathers knew that. No currency without a physical backing can last forever. No country can...2022-07-2101 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220720 - Liberty MinuteNeed more proof that DC is completely out of touch? I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. High gas prices may hurt everyone, but they hurt the poor most. For those who live on a fixed income or live paycheck to paycheck, paying more for gas is more than just uncomfortable. It can mean missed meals or prescriptions don't get filled. Yesterday Transportation Secretary, Pete Buttigieg, said “The more pain we are all experiencing from the high price of gas, the more benefit there is for those who can access electric veh...2022-07-2001 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220719 - Liberty MinutePaul Pelosi's stock trades are quite interesting. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Paul Pelosi made a multi-million dollar stock purchase centered around a microchip company. The purchase was disclosed by Nancy Pelosi, as required. When questioned, Nancy's office assured us that the Speaker had nothing to do with it. That it was her husband's business. We aren't supposed to notice that there is a bill pending that would dramatically subsidize microchip manufacturing in the United States, AND we are supposed to forget that the Speaker is solely responsible for de...2022-07-1901 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220718 - Liberty MinuteThe Robb elementary shooting response was a failure. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. A blistering 77-page report finds multiple systemic failures in response to the school shooting that killed 19 children and two adults. So the Texas House spent almost two months investigating and writing a 77-page report to find what anyone who has seen the videos already knew. There were police with body Armour and rifles in the hallway three minutes after the gunman arrived. I don't like to criticize law enforcement, but I will in this...2022-07-1801 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220714 - Liberty MinuteThe latest Consumer Price Index lie came out yesterday. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Yesterday's report on the Consumer Price Index shows prices up an average of 9.1%. That is the worse report since 1981, and it is actually worse. Forget the average reported by the government who causes the inflation in the first place. Look at the thing you actually buy. The three things everyone needs to live are groceries, gas, and utilities. Those essential items together are up 37% over last year. Make no mistake, this is entirely the...2022-07-1401 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220712 - Liberty MinuteHere is something that might actually stop mass shootings. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Every time some psychopath goes out and shoots multiple people, half of the country screams for more gun control. I have some questions. How is it that so many of the mass shooters have had multiple encounters with police and/or the FBI yet still get the guns to commit these horrible crimes? Maybe we need to enforce lying on the background check paperwork. That is a felony that is rarely prosecuted. 2022-07-1201 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220711 - Liberty MinuteResident Biden wants Congress to legalize abortion. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Yesterday Biden said he doesn't have the authority to reinstate Roe v. Wade but urged Congress to pass a law making abortion legal at the federal level again. The Whitehouse staff is still investigating using a public health emergency to reinstate abortion access. Biden also called on pro-abortion protesters to "keep protesting" and "keep making your point." Biden did not condemn the protesting at justices' homes, which is illegal, the assassination attempt on a Supreme...2022-07-1101 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220708 - Liberty MinuteI'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. I end the Liberty Minute everyday with the Latin phrase, Si vis Pacem, Para Bellum. It seems that every week I get an email asking what that means, so let me explain. Si vis Pacem, Para Bellum means if you want peace, prepare for war. Sound advice used by Regan but rephrased as Peace through strength and by Teddy Roosevelt as walk softly but carry a big stick. The phrase originally comes from the book "Epitoma Rei Militaris," by the Roman general Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus al...2022-07-0801 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220706 - Liberty MinuteThe US war on drugs is clearly a failure. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. The US "war on drugs" was declared by Nixon in 1971. In 1971 the US had 3.3 deaths per 100,000 people. Last year over 100,000 people overdosed in the United States, or 28 per 100,000. This year is expected to be worse. Drug overdose is now the leading cause of death for Americans between 18 and 45 years old. I think it is safe to say our federal government has failed us again. In fact, the government is giving aid and comfort to the enem...2022-07-0601 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220705 - Liberty MinuteThe US has the deadliest border in the world. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. A record 728 illegal aliens died along the US-Mexico border last year, well 728 that we know of. That makes the US southern border the deadliest border in the world. Think about that for a moment. More people died along our southern border than along the North Korean border, where crossing illegally gets you shot on sight. Having lax border control has also made fentanyl poisoning the number one killer of young people in the United States....2022-07-0501 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220630 - Liberty MinuteWe live in a banana Republic I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Kenneth Harrelson is a disabled American Veteran who has been in a DC jail for 476 days without a trial. The Speedy Trial Act of 1974 states that an indictment must happen within 30 days, and a trial must commence within 70 days of the indictment. I say again, Kenneth Harrelson is a disabled American Veteran who has been in a DC jail for 476 days without a trial. If that isn't bad enough, his wife just received notice that the...2022-06-3001 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220629 - Liberty MinuteYour bed is killing you! I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Did you know more people die in bed than anywhere else? More people die in bed than from car accidents, covid, or mass shootings, but still, we have entire rooms in our homes just for beds. Beds have been killing people for centuries. Mattresses are freely bought and sold every day and without background checks, limits, or waiting periods. It is time for common sense bed control to end the killing. Hospitals and hotels sometimes...2022-06-2901 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220628 - Liberty MinuteMayonnaise causes shooting death in Georgia. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. A man shot two employees at Subway after complaining that there was too much Mayonnaise on his sandwich. One of the employees is dead, and the other is in critical condition. A 36-year-old man has been arrested. I hate mayonnaise, but a sandwich should never incite violence. What we have in this country is not a gun problem. It is clearly a mental health problem. Senseless violence with and without firearms is becoming commonplace. Pu...2022-06-2801 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220627 - Liberty MinuteRoe v.Wade is gone, and I believe it was the progressives' fault. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. I believe abortion is murder, but I didn't say much about it until New York and Virginia started to allow abortion up till the moment of birth. It was those laws that got me involved in politics. Those two states inspired me to write my first book. If abortion had stayed safe, legal, and RARE, many people would have just gone along to get along. If abortion had stayed restricted to th...2022-06-2701 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220624 - Liberty MinuteWe have gun rules changing all over. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. The Supreme Court said New York's arbitrary discretion over concealed carry permits is unconstitutional. This might mean that more states will become shall-issue states, but we shouldn't jump the gun just yet. The may-issue states could just pass specific laws restricting who can get a concealed carry permit, removing the decision-making process from the issuing authority. On the same day, ten Senate Republicans joined the Democrats in passing new gun laws. Some of the new rules are ac...2022-06-2401 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220623 - Liberty MinuteBiden wants to save you 18 cents on gas for three months. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. So let's get this straight again. The week Biden was elected, regular gas was $2.11 a gallon. The week Russia invaded Ukraine, gas was already up $1.33 to $3.44 a gallon. Now gas is over $5 a gallon, and Biden asked Congress to suspend the 18 cents a gallon gas tax for three months. This request comes after Biden has already released over half of the Strategic Petroleum Reserves, with little, if any, effect on gas p...2022-06-2301 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220622 - Liberty MinuteLet's talk electric vehicles for a minute. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Sure, electric vehicles produce fewer emissions than an internal combustion vehicle, but what about making the different cars? Building a conventional gas car generates about six tons of CO2. Producing an electric car with a range comparable to a gas engine, about 400 miles, generates over twenty-five tons of CO2. So, you have to drive the electric vehicle about 180,000 miles before the electric vehicle actually cuts emissions. What is the average life expectancy of...2022-06-2201 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220621 - Liberty MinuteInfants can now get the covid jab I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Keep in mind that all covid shots available in the United States are still under Emergency Use Authorization, which means by definition are still experimental. As such, they are subject to the Nuremberg Code which states, quoting front rule one: The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, w...2022-06-2101 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220620 - Liberty MinuteI have an idea to fix almost all the problems of the federal government. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Okay, its not my idea. It's a bill sitting in the House that will probably never get a vote. H.R.46 - One Bill, One Subject Transparency Act If every bill in the House could only deal with one subject then Congress couldn't add unrelated amendments. Pork and earmarks would become nearly impossible. Every bill would have to stand on its own merits. No more bad laws tacked on...2022-06-2001 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220617 - Liberty MinuteOur southern border has never been more open. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Last month Customs and Border Patrol agents reported 239,416 encounters with illegal aliens. That is the most ever reported in a single month. That is also a 2% increase over April. What is more telling, 25% of the people caught had been previously arrested and deported. The number of unaccompanied minors is up 20%. Crossing an international border without going through an official port of entry is a crime. That is why it is called ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. ...2022-06-1701 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220616 - Liberty MinuteDr. Anthony Fauci has Covid-19. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Doctor Fauci tested positive and will follow all of his own recommendations, I'm sure. After two "vaccine" shots and two booster shots, and often wearing two masks he still got the Wuhan Flu. I thought it was a pandemic of the unvaccinated. In about a week, Dr. Fauci will praise the jabs for keeping him out of the hospital. He will claim that he only survived because of the jabs. Conveniently, two claims that cannot be proven. He...2022-06-1601 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220615 - Liberty MinuteWashington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser flew 51-star American flags along Pennsylvania Avenue for Flag Day yesterday. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. The mayor said she directed her team to hang the 51-star flags “as a reminder to Congress and the nation that the 700,000 tax-paying American citizens living in Washington, D.C. demand to be recognized." Washington DC is the district that acts as the seat of government identified in Article 1 Section 8 Clause 17 of the US Constitution. As such, DC statehood is clearly unconstitutional. Therefore, any politician who talks about DC stateh...2022-06-1501 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220613 - Liberty MinuteCongress is out of control. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Members of the Jan. 6 committee believe they’ve uncovered enough evidence to indict former President Donald Trump, according to the Associated Press. The Department of Justice completed its investigation into Trump's alleged involvement in the storming of the Capitol a long time ago and did not bring charges against the former President. That wasn't good enough for Congress. They launched their own, clearly partisan, investigation and now think they can indict Donald Trump. The Constitution does not gran...2022-06-1301 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220608 - Liberty MinuteI'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. One of the gun control ideas being contemplated in DC is restricting semiautomatic firearm sales to those 21 and over. You can vote, own property, sign contracts, be charged and tried as an adult, get married, and be sent away to die in uniform at 18. You can't drink, vape, or smoke tobacco until 21, and the most popular firearms could be off limits if Congress gets its way. I think we need to set one age of majority. You should either be an adult with all o...2022-06-0801 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220607 - Liberty MinuteI'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Biden plans to invoke the Defense Production Act. For what, the war in Ukraine? Gasoline? Baby Formula? Nope, climate change. That's right; Resident Biden is using wartime emergency power so he can grant and loan money to solar manufacturing and other green energy technologies. I have nothing against solar power or any other green energy, but this is not how the United States Federal Government is supposed to work. Executive orders, emergency powers, and now the defense production act all to push an agenda. Have...2022-06-0701 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220606 - Liberty MinuteGas prices have officially doubled since Biden took office. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. On January 19th, 2022, the United States was energy independent. We were a net exporter of energy products. The national average for a gallon of regular gas was $2.39. Resident Biden is sworn in and immediately cancels the Keystone XL pipeline, stops federal land leases, adds new hoops to jump through, and starts to slow walk permits. Gas prices begin to climb within days. On Friday, AAA reported the national average price for a gallon of regular gas...2022-06-0601 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220603 - Liberty MinuteBiden continues to push for more gun laws. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Last night, Resident Biden addressed the nation to push Congress for more gun control laws. He said, "For God's sake, how much more carnage are we willing to accept?" He also said, "do something." I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I agree with Biden. We should do something. We should prosecute criminals and keep them in jail for their entire sentence. We should have armed police or security at al...2022-06-0301 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220602 - Liberty MinuteBiden claimed ignorance. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Yesterday, referring to the baby formula shortage, Resident Biden said, “I don’t think anyone anticipated the impact of the shutdown of one facility, the Abbott facility,” Seriously? You shut down the facility responsible for 40% of domestic baby formula manufacturing and didn't anticipate a 40% shortage. You don't have to be Nostradamus to predict that outcome. It is basic math. Maybe there was a legitimate reason for the shutdown, but you left the facility closed for months with no plan on how to reopen...2022-06-0201 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220531 - Liberty MinuteGun control laws do not stop shootings. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. There were 11 mass shootings over Memorial Day weekend this year. At least seven were killed and 49 injured by these mass shooters. A total of 38 people were shot this weekend in Chicago. Seven people were also shot in New York City. Those two cities have some of the strictest gun laws in our country, yet they consistently have shootings atop their news headlines. Yes, shootings also happen in places like Texas with fewer gun r...2022-05-3101 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220527 - Liberty MinuteMitch McConnell is looking for a compromise on gun control. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Republican Senate minority leader McConnell said yesterday, “What I’ve asked Senator Cornyn to do is to meet with the Democrats who are interested in getting a bipartisan solution and come up with a proposal, if possible, that’s crafted to meet this particular problem,” This particular problem is a society without God. This particular problem is the mental health of a nation where over half the population is on pharmaceuticals. This p...2022-05-2701 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220526 - Liberty MinuteI'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Bernie Sanders, AOC, and 40 other Democrats asked Google to stop collecting location data so 'far-right extremists' can't use it to identify who has had an abortion So it was Okay to collect location data and use it to identify anyone who was in Washington DC on January 6th. It was fine to use location data to try to tie spring break and Sturgis to non-existent covid outbreaks. It is perfectly acceptable to use location data sometimes when it is politically expedient. This...2022-05-2601 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220525 - Liberty MinuteNineteen children and two adults are dead in the Texas school shooting. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. As we can expect after a mass shooting, gun control advocates immediately restart their push for more gun laws. These mass shooters are already violating several laws. More gun laws will just be more laws these criminals break. Here are some things that the gun control pushers always seem to ignore: Murder is already illegal Shooting at people is already illegal Schools are already "gun-free zones." To illustrate that point...2022-05-2501 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220524 - Liberty MinuteBiden actually praised high gas prices. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. As proof of just how out of touch Washington DC is, Resident Biden explained the green energy plan. In a meeting yesterday, Biden said, “[When] it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger, and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over,” Resident Biden went on to praise himself for being able to “k...2022-05-2401 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220523 - Liberty MinuteYesterday, in Washington DC, a career politician said something really stupid. I'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. Experts agree that ignorance and stupidity have crossed all party lines. For example, one career politician who wished to remain anonymous said, "As soon as I arrived in Washington DC, I forgot all of my campaign promises and honestly couldn't remember why my constituents elected me." Studies have shown that politicians at the federal level almost immediately become deficient in common sense. As a result, the simple task of distinguishing a man or woman can...2022-05-2301 min

Liberty Lighthouse20220519 - Liberty MinuteI'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. The CDC said yesterday that a third of Americans should consider masks as case counts of covid rise again. I'll consider a mask; consider it a waste of time and money. Biden is finally doing something about the baby formula shortage. Three months ago, the company that manufactured 40% of the baby formula in the US shut down, but the federal government didn't do anything about it until store shelves were empty for weeks.

Liberty Lighthouse20220518 - Liberty MinuteI'm Peter Serefine with today's Liberty Minute. After spending all day yesterday at the polls for the Pennsylvania primary election, I am more convinced than ever that the primary process is partisan just for the sake of being partisan. I was surprised by the number of independent voters who showed up just to be turned away because we have closed primaries in Pennsylvania. I find it odd that the voters' political party affiliation is called out for everyone present to hear. I still believe that the government should have nothing to...2022-05-1801 min

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi announced the “Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act,” which would grant Biden the power to “issue an emergency energy declaration making it unlawful to increase gas and home energy prices in an exploitative and excessive way…" Rather than reverse the failed energy policies of the political left, the speaker wants to grant new "emergency powers" to the President.

The Center for DISEASE Control and Prevention reported on firearms deaths. 2020 had the highest rate since 1994. Gun violence is a crime. It would make a lot more sense if the FBI reported on shooting deaths. Maybe, since firearm is in their name, the ATF should be producing this report. Why is the CDC reporting on anything that is not a disease? This is how gun violence will become the nex...2022-05-1101 min

Someone threw a molotov cocktail into the office of a pro-life group in Wisconsin. The official Whitehouse statement said, “President Biden strongly condemns this attack and political violence of any stripe." First of all, the official statement? Resident Biden couldn't comment himself? Second, someone throws a firebomb.

In primary elections held this week, former President Trump endorsed 55 Republican candidates. All 55 of those candidates won their primaries, proving that Trump is still the most influential man in the Republican party. Trump did some great things as President, but he is still only one man. Don't rely on the endorsement of one man. Trump has endorsed some candidates that I just don't trust. His influence should be concerning. How can we be sure Trump is still endorsing candidates for the right reasons? No one man can save ou...2022-05-0601 min
