The best way to send a message - well done to all

The Conservative Party has long been synonymous with family values, rooted in tradition and biblical teachings. These values have been passed down through generations, and our fight is to preserve these principles, not to restrict others’ freedoms. President Trump’s current platform expands to more communities while staying true to conservative family principles. Tradition exists to strengthen humanity and the family unit. What are your thoughts on preserving family values in today's world? I’d love to hear from you! #TheTeresaLuskShow #FamilyValues #TraditionalFamily #ConservativeFaith #BiblicalValues #PreserveTradition #Trump2024 #ConservativePrinciples #FaithAndFamily #DefendTheFamily #EqualityAndTradition #ProtectFamilyUnit #TeresaLusk #HumanityAndTradition #MoralValues #ConservativeMovement #FamilyMatters #TraditionalAmericans #FaithInPolitics #BiblicalConvictions #StrengthInTradition

On this day, we pause to honor and remember lives lost on September 11, 2001. The events of that day left an indelible mark on our country, forever changing how we view the world and our shared values. It is a moment in history that reminds us of the resilience of the human spirit and the courage of those who responded with unwavering strength and selflessness. We stand with the families and loved ones who continue to carry the weight of that loss. As we reflect on this day, we also acknowledge the countless individuals who have worked tirelessly to rebuild and recover from the devastation, from first responders to everyday citizens who came together in the aftermath. Their dedication serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of community, unity, and the commitment to moving forward while never forgetting the past. The lessons of 9/11—solidarity, resilience, and justice—continue to inspire us. At Feldman Kodsi, we draw from these lessons as we approach the work we do every day. As legal advocates, we are committed to protecting the rights and interests of our clients with the same steadfast dedication to justice that was shown by so many on that fateful day. Today, we remember and honor the lives lost, the heroes who emerged, and the strength that defines us as a nation. #NeverForget #911Remembrance #Resilience

I should have edited this video. It's long. There is an awkward pause. And another one. I'm not as good with my words here. That's okay. I'm talking about race. And that's uncomfortable. I grew up in Idaho. Everyone looked like me. I looked like everybody. We didn't talk about diversity or race. Because why would we? If we did, I don't recall any champions for justice. I had a LOT to learn. Like this: while we celebrate Juneteenth, the 13th amendment abolished slavery in 1862. By design, it took 2 ½ years for news to reach the last slaves in Galveston, Texas. On June 19th, 1865.  Not even justice was justly delivered. The sacrifice and suffering originating from American slavery is a stain on our history. It has been replaced with systemic, structural racism that persists. Especially in real estate. We can make a difference here. The future is ours to advance a more just and equitable future. It’s one thing to reflect and learn. It’s another to act. It's the work of individuals and business leaders to insist on change, then make it. It's my work.

Happy St George's Day everybody!! It's a warm and unifying feeling to feel or be a part of something. 🤗 But in a world which is increasingly defined by global connections, what does patriotism look like in our interconnected age? It's less about nationalistic passion and more about contributing positively to the community and the nation at large. Modern patriotism goes beyond flags and anthems; it's about being engaged citizens committed to improvement and inclusivity. From supporting local businesses to championing social causes, it's the everyday actions that foster a sense of solidarity and national pride. True patriotism is about striving for a country that upholds the values of justice, equality, and liberty for all its inhabitants. Despite our connections across the globe, the love for one's country can still burn bright. It is a point that does divide thought.....what do you think about Saints Days and patriotism? Does it still have a place and value in today's society? #Patriotism #Community #NationBuilding #StGeorge #Unity #NationalPride

The "Rankins" have had a varied service history, originating in Europe and then migrating with a somewhat controversial narrative of its day. It transcended dissent of the age, from Ohio through PA, WV, and KY, and converted viewpoints until the unpopular narratives became acceptable, to the degree that liberty and equality became adoptable perspectives. Because of them, and our ancestor's dedication, we do not suffer as much for expressed truths. Remember that abiding by a truth in which YOU believe may not make you accepted by many, but it can plant the seeds that empower an enduring needed precept that goes far beyond the populism of the time. It is not for us to empower our standing with the acceptance of power-wielding idealogues but to enrich the world with an embraced truth that, when freed, will empower others. Identify the truths in which you stand, invest in them, and dedicate your mind, body, and spirit to them. If one person or a nation needs to hear it, preach, practice, and spread the truth through whatever occupation you pursue. It may be that self-actualization results, but the truth that touches others will outlive us and our comprehension of its historical progeny. Remember those who struggled for liberty, for US all, and revealed the injustices we must vigilantly defend against. From that, we should NOT divide ourselves, but unite. Find that truth, study it and invest faith and effort... then unleash it, and all its good upon the world. Just a truth https://lnkd.in/gYhXAH6b
