A Future and a Hope

By Charlie Johnston Waukegan, Illinois – On December 23, 2020, I wrote here that I thought the Covid Shots were likely to become the greatest medical disaster in modern history.

Happy Thanksgiving!

From Charlie Johnston Helena, Alabama – I pretty much say all I have to say in this Thanksgiving video for CORAC. Thank you all for the fabulous work you have done these last four years to keep the home fires of faith, family, and freedom burning. In 2008, at the Easter Vigil at Immaculate Heart of […]

Marching Towards the Triumph

By Charlie Johnston “The jar of flour shall not go empty,nor the jug of oil run dry,until the day when the LORD sends rain upon the earth.” -1 Kings 17:14 Houston, Texas – Even in my heyday I never used polls as a primary indicator in campaigns. In fact, in my first statewide primary race […]
