Should America reserve its highest offices for natural-born citizens?

By Christine Coleman | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “You shall surely set a king over you whom the LORD your God chooses, one from among your countrymen you shall set as king over yourselves; you may not put a foreigner over yourselves who is not your countryman.” — Deuteronomy 17:15 When God brought the children of Israel into the Promised Land, He established clear laws and commandments for their governance. Among them was the explicit requirement that rulers must be chosen from among their own people — no foreigner born outside the nation was permitted to rule over God’s covenant people. This principle was repeatedly tested and its violation brought severe consequences. In 1 Kings 11, King Solomon’s heart was turned away from the Lord through his many foreign wive...

High Court Blocks Trump Plan To Restrict Birthright Citizenship

By: Jacob Wheeler | The Daily Wire "The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to 'every free-born person in this land,'" Roberts wrote. The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday permanently blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship, dealing a significant blow to his immigration agenda and preventing a sweeping overhaul of who qualifies for U.S. citizenship. In a landmark ruling authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, the Supreme Court held that children born in the United States to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause. “Citizenship, then and now, was the right ...

The SAVE Act is about citizenship not suppression

By Russ Minary | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.” – Mark Twain Today, many Americans across the political spectrum are uninformed and/or unfamiliar with the US Constitution and US legal code. Yet they want elections and election results to be fair and accurate. Confusion, division and conflict are common, often guided more by opinion or emotions, but not the truth or facts. Social or mainstream media will never be a substitute for primary research from reliable sources. In this article, you’ll get some facts and reliable info on WHY the SAVE Act, free and fair elections, and the Electoral College are absolutely necessary to protect our most basic freedoms as Ame...

“The Constitution reigns supreme”: A warning about sanctuary states and political power

By Michael J Badagliacco, “MJB” | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Colorado and a multitude of other states are disregarding the Constitution and federal law. They disguise these actions with the help of complicit judges. Their objective is to inflate numbers in the census. This maneuver aims to claim more seats in the House of Representatives come 2030. The mechanism is straightforward. The Constitution requires counting the whole number of persons for apportionment. U.S. Const. art. I, § 2, cl. 3 and U.S. Const. amend. XIV, § 2. Current practice includes noncitizens since no prohibition bars it.  Noncitizens remain ineligible to vote in our elections. Nevertheless, their presence shapes congressional district allocations and Electoral College strength across the nation. S...
Common Sense, Conservatism, Parties and Other Meaningless Words

Common Sense, Conservatism, Parties and Other Meaningless Words

By Russ Minary | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” —Inigo Montoya, “The Princess Bride” People use words like common sense or conservatism. Here’s the problem: either words have precise meanings in certain contexts, or they mean precisely nothing. In this article, I’ll put some definitions around a few words – to create some objective truth for a dialogue among reasonable people. Good people can disagree, but so can bad people. First, common sense is a false premise. People often say, “Well, that’s just common sense!” But they can’t precisely define the term they just used. Thus, they provide no truth for what they suggest is truth which makes no sense. If common sense did exist, the majority of p...

EVERY Day In America Is ‘No Kings Day’—READ the U.S. Constitution

By Russ Minary | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.” Mark Twain may or may not have said it, but whoever did certainly had a valid point. Today in 2025, many people seem to know a lot that just ain’t so. Over the weekend, thousands of people gathered in cities across the U.S. for a series of “No Kings” rallies and protests. The NO KINGS website lists many partner organizations including marxists, socialists, communists, anti-Americans, Democrats, progressives, radical environmentalists, abortionists, anarchists and many others that oppose the lawful Constitutional authority and order of our Republics—some of whom advocate rebellion, insurrection, violence and the overthrow of...

Time to cut ties: Americans back President Trump’s push to defund the UN

By Brian C. Joondeph | Commentary, Rasmussen Reports President Trump’s blunt assessment of the United Nations during his September 23 address wasn’t just political theater. It reflected the growing frustration many Americans feel toward a bloated, ineffective, and increasingly hostile international organization. In his speech, Trump declared, “The U.N. is supposed to stop invasions, not create them, and not finance them.” According to a new Rasmussen Reports poll, 60% of U.S. voters agree, including 43% who strongly agree. That’s not a fringe view – that’s the voice of the American mainstream. The United Nations, established in 1945 to promote peace and cooperation among nations, has instead become a symbol of globalist overreach and institutional rot. From its failure to prevent ...

President Trump vows voter ID mandate through executive order

By Anders Hagstrom | Fox News President announces plan on social media along with restrictions on mail-in voting President Donald Trump says he plans to sign an executive order aimed at requiring voter ID in elections across the country. Trump made the statement on social media late Saturday night, saying he is also seeking other reforms to how U.S. elections take place.   "Voter I.D. Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!! Also, No Mail-In Voting, Except For Those That Are Very Ill, And The Far Away Military. USE PAPER BALLOTS ONLY!" Trump wrote on Truth Social. Trump previously attempted to impose voter ID via an executive order earlier this year in a wider election integrity action. In April, Ju...

Doing the math on the cost of mail-in voting after 25 years

By Capt. Seth Keshel | Commentary, Captain K's Corner, Substack A statistical guide to the impacts of mail-in voting and why Democrats will make it their hill to die on. It appears, based on his recent statements, that President Trump is likely to take executive action targeting mail-in ballots and perhaps other deficiencies and disenfranchising items present in the American system of elections. As a former intelligence officer, my mind moves immediately to thinking like how the enemy thinks, and in this case, those enemies will be representatives of states that run quasi-elections tainted by mail-in balloting, which is always accompanied by ballot harvesting (whether legal or not), pushed out to an ever-expanding list of registrations polluted by Automatic Voter Registration. As ...
