We just posted our first e-course on our new platform. It's called "Thriving 101."

This seven-part series is our opportunity to introduce you to Grassfire's new organizing idea to "help America thrive." I hope you enjoy the series as much as I did in making it!

Go here to get started on Thriving 101.

A Rasmussen survey is showing that 31% of Americans say "it’s likely that the United States will experience a second civil war sometime in the next five years."

While that's stunning, the Rasmussen survey revealed another shocking trend that is even more concerning...

Here's how they are going to stop President Trump's Supreme Court nominee to fill retiring Justice Kennedy's seat...

They can't do it on votes because Republicans control the Senate.

They can't do it on the ideology of the nominee because the President will nominate a very qualified candidate.

But there is another way to defeat the President's nominee...

As you may know, Grassfire is expanding our vision around the idea of "helping America thrive." I am very excited about this shift because I believe we must give the context for the ideals of liberty and limited government our nation so desperately needs.

Where do you stand on immigration and border security? Take the survey here.

Beware of the amnesty smoke screen! The current manufactured outcry over children being separated from their parents is over even though the policy was exactly the same under former president, Barack Obama. From The Daily Caller:

The media and political class become more and more outraged over the Trump administration's decision to detain and prosecute immigrants illegally crossing the border.

Lost in the debate is any acknowledgment that President Obama's administration also used detention facilities.

Current U.S. immigration laws, when enforced, have the consequence of temporarily separating adults who arrive with children into separate detention facilities in order to prosecute the adults.

Think about it for a minute. What happens when one or both parents commit a crime here in America? Often times, children are separated from their mother and/or father, then taken into the custody of Child Protective Services. People who enter the United States illegally have broken the law and must be detained. Why is this suddenly such a big issue now, when it wasn't during the eight years of the Obama presidency? Because it's a way to hurt Trump.

I was up early yesterday on Father's Day and I couldn't help but think about my dad.

Earl Louis Elliott. Hard to believe he passed away to his heavenly reward 24 years ago, yet on this day, my thoughts flood to him. It's amazing how long a shadow dad casts, but maybe that's the way it's supposed to be.

I want to share one memory and seven words from my dad with you. First the seven words...

I wish I could share this Father's Day presentation with every man in America.

A little background on why I made this, and why dad is so vital...

no commentary needed:

After a brief "reboot" season, I'm very excited to introduce you to the rebooted Grassfire!

It's not quite finished yet, but we're launching with a host of new features on a platform that is re-engineered to help you maximize your impact as a grassroots, patriotic American.

Go here to see some of the new features.

And you can always find the latest news here.

Perhaps most importantly, we're rebooting around a renewed vision of our role in helping restore our nation.
