Have you ever gone past a pasture and seen horses or cows standing in the field not doing much of anything except eating? Have you ever been to a farm and seen chickens in their coops, pigs in their stalls, or rabbits in their cages? If you have, you’ve no doubt noticed that such animals don’t [...]
Okay, I’ve been trying to get you pumped about the Ebony & Ivory Two Nekkid Heads all-day event next Thursday (May 5th) in Richmond, but now I’m going to explain its importance to the greater freedom movement in America and why it’s critical you participate. One of the big reasons our nation is in such [...]

The diagnosis of cancer is a shock to any patient and their family because it is such a devastating and life-threatening disease. Even so, there is a cure for it if caught early enough.

I’ve been telling people lately that the Big-Government machine, well-funded and gargantuan as it is, can’t ultimately defeat freedom-loving Americans, as long as we are principled, informed, and engaged. We have the numbers and the passion on our side. And why wouldn’t we? Our core principles of constitutionally limited government, fiscal responsibility, and free markets [...]

Heads-up: Richmond Tea Party is working on a great event for next month you WILL want to be a part of. Remember Joe the Plumber? The man who with a simple question got then-Senator Obama to admit to his economic policy of “spread the wealth around”? He’s teaming up with Kevin Jackson—author of The BIG [...]
Probably the most important aspect of business is trust. Trust is, of course, built on competence and truth-telling. Your business partners will not trust you if you are an idiot, and they will not trust you if lie to them repeatedly. It is never a good idea to start out a business relationship with a [...]
