America betrayed!
As NCGOP Chair Jason Simmons wrote, “We declare this a SHAM VERDICT and stand united behind President Trump.”
Socialists/Communists/Marxists now lead the Democrat party, and President Trump and we Republicans stand in the way of their lust for power.
Judges are out of control. No one is immune from being targeted by unscrupulous, politically motivated persons in the legal community.
That is why we must work harder than ever before to save our nation and elect President Trump in November.

Debt of Honor: D-Day
The following is taken from a speech of Ronald Reagan:
Words cannot repay the debt we owe the patriots who came before us. Our actions must keep faith with them and with the sacrifices they made.
Our obligation is that the United States and the freedom for which it stands, the freedom for which many died, must endure and prosper. Freedom is not bought cheaply. It has a cost. It imposes a burden.
And just as we commemorate those who were willing to sacrifice, as many did on D-Day on the beaches of Normandy, so must we -- in a less final, less heroic way -- be willing to give of ourselves. Each died for a cause he considered more important than his own life. They didn't volunteer to die; they volunteered to defend values for which heroes have always been willing to die, the values which make up what we call civilization.
Let us pledge that their lives, their sacrifices, their valor shall be justified and remembered for as long as God gives life to this nation.
And let us pledge to do our utmost to carry out their purpose. To keep that flag still waving o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
You know what to do. The time to prepare is NOW!
We depend on you, we need you, and we thank you for your hard work.

Reflection by Margeaux Holland | |
|
"The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defender of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When evildoers assailed me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and foes, they stumbled and fell. Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war rise up against me, yet I will be confident of this. One thing have I asked of the Lord — that will I seek after — that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord and to look upon His temple." Psalm 27: 1-4

Thank you to Senator Phil Berger and Speaker Tim Moore for underwriting our Legislative Day and enabling 175 members to attend. Thanks as well to Representative Harry Warren, our host for the day in the Auditorium.
Superintendent Catherine Truitt updated us on the progress of NC's students, and we loved the yellow roses, a gift from Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey. We thank them. Judge Donna Stroud gave generously of her time at the Court of Appeals, and we appreciated her answering our many questions about the Court.
My deep appreciation to VPs Gay Dillard and Erica Vedeikis for their work to make this day so successful. Special thanks to Angela Vacek who always pitches in.

Action alert: My Faith Votes | |
|
Thank you to all those who have already signed up for this project. There is still time to take part. Make it fun; have a writing party and include your friends, even if they are not club members.
REMEMBER POSTAL RATES JUMP FROM 68 TO 73 CENTS ON 7/14!
68 cents, That's cheap to keep your Constitutional Republic.
This year, 25 million Christians won’t vote—unless we act. That’s why we are asking you to pre-register for My Faith Votes’ 2024 Write Now campaign. In just four simple steps, you can participate in a campaign that has proven to get out the Christian vote. All you have to do is print a pre-written letter, write a brief note of encouragement at the bottom, pray over the recipient, and mail it. It is that easy.
Get instructions on how to participate in this important outreach.

Primary Runoff Pledge
Members of the Lower Cape Fear Republican Women’s Club pledged to vote in the 2nd Primary Election because runoff elections often have very low voter turnout.
Lower Cape Fear President Carolyn Justice reports that 99.1% of their full members voted in this election. In total, that was 145 full and associate members voting. Members know how important it is to set goals and work hard to reach them.

NCGOP Convention - WOW!!!
NCGOP's 2024 Convention was held at the Koury Center in Greensboro. NCGOP Chair Jason Simmons and his team did an outstanding job and made this a convention to remember.
Special guests and speakers at the events included: Kash Patel, RNC Co-Chair Lara Trump, Eric Trump, Vivek Ramaswamy, Governor Doug Borgum of North Dakota and RNC Co-Chair Michael Whatley.
All our amazing Judges and Council of State candidates were inspiring, and, of course, Lt. Governor Mark Robinson brought down the house.
We are on our way in July to an exciting RNC Convention in Milwaukee where NC RNC Committeeman Ed Broyhill and NC RNC National Committeewoman Kyshia Brassington, re-elected to their positions, are busy planning an outstanding convention.
