In case you missed it:

If you’re not worried about future elections and what is being done to the MT Constitution, you must have missed Representative Tracy Sharp’s presentations on ‘Dark Money’ (last one April 10 for a crowd of Pachyderm attendees).

Great turnout for Charles Garner on March 13 and again on April 6! 31 attendees participated at the Republican Women’s meeting Monday.

Now it is up to us to disseminate the great information penned and spoken by this patriotic author! Minutes posted on the ‘Pachyderm Club’ page. Excerpt:

“The church has yielded – voices have been silenced.  The church must stand up
Charles’ third book is the cure – ‘ Called to Stand’
Every believer needs to put on the armor of God and stand up.  Lake County is on the battle line
We all must spread the word across Montana – this is our battleground
Friends must tell friends”
32 million who attend church monthly are not VOTING!?

The books are available on line, but you will have another opportunity to listen and learn, and buy your own copy at an affordable price to support the sharing of Christian values. Charles Garner will be back at the Republican Women’s meeting on April 6.

The role of the judiciary as seen by District Court Judge John Mercer

 

On January 23, 2026, Pachyderm attendees were pondering the role of the judiciary with the help of Judge John Mercer who has experienced many ends of the spectrum of government work. John Mercer emphasized the importance of judges restraining their power. If they allow politics to be brought into their decisions, they WILL lose respect. Judges should not be biased in their decisions.

John Mercer is going to run in 2026 in order to finish the four years remaining on Judge Cotter’s term.

Judge Wilson, a true Constitutional Conservative, outlined his thoughts on what is happening in the judiciary and what he wants to do to ensure it does what the Constitution intends for it to do. Read the meeting minutes under “Who We Are/Pachyderm Club”.

Get involved!

Attend meetings to see how you can help. The wins we now celebrate can be attributed to people who put their hearts into the fight. There are so many ways YOU can contribute!

Abraham Lincoln Knew – We Must Get Involved

 

General Flynn on Telegram:

Below is NOT a history lesson.

This short missive is a lesson in reality—the reality now smacking us across our heads like a 2X4.

In 1838, at the age of 28, Abraham Lincoln gave an address to a group of young men gathered in Springfield, Illinois.

His speech was titled “The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions.”

The specific topic of Lincoln’s speech was citizenship in a constitutional republic and threats to U.S. institutions.

In the speech, Lincoln discussed in glowing terms the political regime established by the Founding Fathers, but warned of a destructive force from within.

He said:

“Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never!

All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted), in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years.”

Lincoln then asked the audience (this is the important part):

“At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected?”

Lincoln answered his own question:

“If it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide.”

__________

If Lincoln could see this at the ripe old age of 28, nearly 185 years ago, why can’t a large chunk of American citizens not see this?

Our nation’s “destruction” is NOT due to overseas threats, it’s principally due to our own complacency as citizens.

For our constitutional republic to prevail, for our institutions to NOT collapse from within, citizens must get involved.

I implore those that read this, to discuss with your families, your churches, your local clubs, your communities, your elected officials, any willing to listen, that the time is now to recognize what President Lincoln stated 22 years before he became POTUS, that our demise will NOT be from without, but from within.

In his well known and eloquent oratory style, Lincoln was reminding those attending his speech that Local Action as citizens mattered then as it matters now.

The time is now to stand up, step up, and speak up!

🦅🙏🏼🇺🇸
