42nd Annual Hmong Freedom Festival J4, on June 29-30th, 2024

Posted on June 27, 2024 by Publius Jr

Republican Booth is #144 Near Gate 2 on the Northeast corner of the area the Hmong International Freedom Festival (HIFF) J4 is at. See the Map below.

J4 as it is known to Hmong as a time to celebrate freedom with family, food, and sports.

It’s that time of year again, the first weekend in July, when the Hmong people celebrate freedom at McMurray Fields of St Paul, MN.  Hmong International Freedom Festival J4 Street Map

The Republican Booth is in the Northeast part of this map (upper right, in the light green area) near the intersection of Como-Horton & Lexington Ave nearest to Gate 2.

The Hmong People who have settled here in the St Paul MN area really know what Freedom feels like.  General Vang Pao brought the Hmong people here from the refugee camps in Southeast Asia after the end of the Vietnam War.

Hmong International Freedom Festival (J4) will be open from 8 AM to 8 PM Both Days

There are many things to do, see, buy, and taste at the celebration.

The event will provides ample spaces for various vendors that are not just local community members, but from all over the world.

Booths will be set up for food, traditional and culture items, educational and informational and other general merchandise. Most of the festival goers are relatives and friends who travel a short distance of a couple of miles to across the ocean from former homeland in Asia.

They have a lot to accomplish within the short amount of time.

The First Presidential Debate Between President Donald Trump & Joe Biden June 27, 2024

Posted on June 27, 2024 by Publius Jr

The First Debate between the presumptive Presidential Candidates, President Donald J Trump, and the questionable President Joe R Biden.

A third party candidate who is on the Minnesota General Election Ballot is Robert F Kennedy Jr (RFK Jr) was excluded from this debate. Guessing this was because Joe Biden would be losing votes largely because the Democratic Party Presidential Primaries were rigged for Hillary in 2016 & Biden in 2020 as well as this year. RFK Jr is a lifelong Democrat. For fairness and for the sake of the Democrats in St Paul & Minneapolis we will post RFK Jr’s Debate video separately.

This post was not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee, the MNGOP, CD4 GOP, nor any PAC. ~~ Publius Jr.

msrabacktothe50s.com

 

Let MNGOP know they should open their MNGOP Booth at this event. It’s worth every penny.

Nearly every year we have tried to get the MNGOP to open up their booth at the State Fairgrounds for this event. They probably could break even on the fee to do it, but they would unite with one of the largest Conservative anti-Gas Tax group.  They could also find classic car owners who might allow candidates a ride in various parades around Minnesota.

We are posting this event as a courtesy and do not benefit directly from doing so. Please dress for the weather, hydrate with water and electrolytes as it will be a warm weekend.

Saintpaulrepublicans.us does not get compensated for posting this for the MSRA.

Flag Day June 14, 1777: The 13 Folds of the US Flag

Posted on June 14, 2024 by Publius Jr

Flag Day is June 14th and it was on this day in 1777 when the 2nd Continental Congress adopted the Flag of the United States.  It is also 2 years after the Continental Army was created to fight the British in our War of Independence.

In 1916 the President of the United States of America, Woodrow Wilson declared June 14th to be Flag Day.  In 1949 by an Act of Congress National Flag Day was established.

Some time ago when I, Publius Jr, read the book, SEAL of Honor: Operation Red Wings and the Life of Lt Michael P Murphy, Congressional Medal of Honor Winner (awarded posthumously) I ran across a reference to the 13 folds of the US Flag.  It is very interesting what the 13 folds of the US Flag mean.  Below is a video that best explains it, narrated by Ann M Wolf.  ~~ Publius Jr.

The above information about Flag Day came from Wikipedia.

The text below is from the militaryfoundation.org

The 13 Folds of the Flag

The 1st fold of our Flag is a symbol of life

The 2nd fold of our Flag is a symbol of our belief in eternal life

The 3rd fold of our Flag is made in honor and remembrance of the veteran departing our ranks who gave a portion of their lives for the defense of our country to attain peace throughout the world.

The 4th fold represents our weaker nature, for as American Citizens trusting in God, it is to Him we turn in times of peace as well as in time of war for His divine guidance.

The 5th fold is a tribute to our country, for in the words of Stephen Decatur, “Our Country, in dealing with other countries, may she always be right; but it is still our country, right, or wrong.”

The 6th fold is for where our hearts lie.  It is with our heart that We Pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.

The 7th fold is a tribute to our Armed Forces, for it is through the Armed Forces that we protect our country and our flag against all her enemies, whether they are found within, or without the boundaries of our republic.

The 8th fold is a tribute to the one who entered into the valley of the shadow of death, that we might see the light of day.

The 9th fold is a tribute to womanhood, and Mothers.  For it has been through their faith, their love, loyalty and devotion that the character of the men and women who have made this country great has been molded.

The 10th fold is a tribute to the Father, for he too, has given his sons and daughters for defense of our country since they were first born.

The 11th fold represents the lower portion of the seal of King David and King Solomon and glorifies in the Hebrews eyes, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

The 12th fold represents an emblem of eternity and glorifies, in the Christians eyes, God the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit.

The 13th fold, or when the flag is completely folded, the stars are uppermost reminding us of our nation’s motto, “In God We Trust.”

After the Flag is completely folded and tucked in, it takes on the appearance of a cocked hat; ever reminding us of the soldiers who served under General George Washington, and the Sailors and Marines who served under Captain John Paul Jones, who were followed by their comrades and shipmates in the Armed Forces of the United States; preserving for us the rights, privileges and freedoms we enjoy today.

June 14, 1775 is the US Army’s Birthday

June 14, 1946 is President Donald Trump’s Birthday

2024 #ProLifeSunday: It Takes a Man to be a Dad

Posted on June 12, 2024 by Publius Jr

 

Remember the Tom Selleck voice-overs for the National Fatherhood Initiative ads?  We do.  They might show dads in some wacky ways but the time spent with your children has positive returns in the future.

I, Publius Jr, have been without my late-dad for about 21 years.  While my dad, Henry, never sparred with lightsabers with me on the front lawn, he did teach me how to be a good baseball player.  He taught me how to throw a fastball, a fork-ball, and he tried to straighten out my curveball but I stayed away from the curveball because I hit batters with it.  He taught me how to catch a ball in the outfield or the infield and throw it in an efficient move to the cutoff man or the proper plate.  I remember watching Magnum P.I. with Dad.  Magnum and my Dad were both Navy Veterans.  Every time I see Tom Selleck I think of those days on the couch watching Magnum with Dad.  Dad showed me how to repair my car, and now when my car needs to be serviced I think of him.  Dad taught me other things as well, not so much in a sit down and listen kind of way but by example.

He taught me to respect women.  He taught me it is better to listen more than to speak in a conversation. Dad was a Chicago White Sox fan and I am a Twins fan, he showed me how to respect others who had different opinions other than sports.  He showed me that God should be very important in my life and to love and respect God.

Most people who I know today, have never met my dad.  They have met him though, through me.  Know me and you know my Dad and my Mom, my siblings, cousins, Aunts & Uncles, and my Grandparents…and my Heavenly Daddy.

On the Cross, when Jesus Christ was dying for our sins, he called his father, Abba.  This is translated as Daddy.  Calling God “Daddy,” suggests extreme love for his dad.  God loved his Son, and He loved us as well enough to sacrifice his Son for our sins.  You know John 3:16.  Yet God knew that Jesus was going to rise up on the 3rd day and beat death for us.  God provides security for us, especially when we have a relationship with Him.

You see Abba-God provides for his children.  He shows us how to be good parents.  Dads provide for their children in terms of shelter, food, and security.  In the last 3 or 4 decades the roles of parents have crossed over traditional lines and that’s okay, as long as children know that their parents love them and they know the difference between what’s right and what’s wrong.  Allowing children to stray to become irresponsible in their actions and letting them know there aren’t consequences for their actions is not being a parent at all.

Being irresponsible in raising children is the cause for so many social ills today.  Most psychologists will tell you that problems today in a patient started in their childhood.  It’s a bit like cement, it is easy to shape and put strength in the form of rebar when cement is just poured and it is still wet.  When it cures and dries it is hard to reform it.

Today on #ProLifeSunday we are celebrating one of the important pillars to a strong family foundation:  Dads.  As the irresponsible 60’s generation has shown by example, anyone can be a father.  In truth it takes a Man to be a Dad.

Happy Dad’s Day

We are republishing this post from its original post date in 2016.  Today’s kids need a mom and a dad, not two dads or two moms.  Adults who are parents need to stop being children and to stop embracing every oddball whim.  There’s no such thing as transgender people in God’s kingdom. Children need good role models to follow and having flaky parents who act less like adults jeopardizes their children’s future. Parents who mutilate their children and think it is neat to encourage their boy to be a girl or vice versa are committing criminal child abuse, they are essentially sterilizing their children. It’s not being a parent when you exploit your children for your immoral ways. Our Government shouldn’t accommodate nor encourage the break up of traditional families with social engineering on a foundation of sand. Good Judeo-Christian values are built on the bedrock of God’s love and truth. Happy Dad’s day! ~~ Publius Jr.

The last week of the Minnesota Legislative Session brought out all sorts of last minute “gotcha” bills that pass on party line votes usually.  There was one “garbage” bill that was 2800 pages long dropped on the legislature about 90 minutes to the End of Session on May 19th. The title of the bill was 2 pages long.  It could have been the last week of the DFL Trifecta, where they control both Bodies of the Legislature, plus the Governor’s Office.

2024 #ProLifeSunday : Let’s Celebrate Mothers

Posted on May 11, 2024 by Publius Jr
Not enough flowers to say, "Thanks Mom for all you do for me."

Not enough flowers to say, “Thanks Mom for all you do for me.”

This Sunday is Mother’s Day and we would like to thank all the mothers out there for being there at every step of life.  You’ve nurtured, supported, and loved us.  You’ve made us into the people we are today.

#ProLifeSunday Thanks to Mothers

not enough flowers to say, "Thanks mom."

not enough flowers to say, “I love you mom.”

There aren’t enough flowers and presents to say thank you to mothers. We will also say there aren’t enough ties, tools, and aftershave cologne to say thank you to committed fathers.

We at SaintPaulRepublicans.us celebrate the entire family. We include Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Brothers & Sisters & Cousins, Friends & Colleagues.  Family values begin with God, the Holy Trinity.  Adam and Eve had God actively involved in their family to help them avoid the potential problems that arise during the rearing of children.  Our extended families have helped us grow in areas that our parents may have overlooked, or helped us to relate to our parents to know that they were once like us at one point in the past.

Cutting any part of the family out of the picture diminishes the resources one can draw upon.

While there might be a number of fantastic mothers who vote for Democrat candidates, we have to take issue with them because they support the destruction of life during a pregnancy.  They support Planned Parenthood, a taxpayer supported organization that draws upon the tenets of Eugenics that were supported by their founder Margaret Sanger and the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg who had been their attorney.  Eugenics derived from Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and the idea of “survival of the fittest.”  Sanger believed that there are certain undesirables in the human population.

We can’t believe we have to say this, but men can’t be mothers (It takes a woman to be a mom). Men are not biologically capable of becoming pregnant or giving birth as a mother can. It is spiritually illness that is telling people who are either gullible, recruited by people who seek to exploit them for their perverted ideas, or have never heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ. These children who are preyed upon need protection, and those who prey upon them need to be separated from society into prison. This is what happens when the government and churches stop speaking the Truth of Jesus Christ and embrace the lies from the Father of Lies. Parents who actively participate in the mutilation and essentially sterilization of their children to help them change the appearance to appear like the opposite gender are evil and should be arrested for extreme child abuse and separated from those children to prevent further harm.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother’s Day

To end on a positive note we would like to thank all the Pro-life Mothers serving as legislators in the Minnesota State Legislature.

Happy Mother’s Day

It is a different sort of Mother’s Day this year as Roe v Wade has been overturned and extreme abortion has been passed into law in Minnesota.  It is another different kind of holiday, as it is the 3rd year after I, Publius Jr, will be without my best friend, my mom. Mom died at the age of 98 in September 2021. Not sure what I’ll do for the holiday. ~~ Publius Jr.

2024 #ProLifeSundays Celebrate with Your Whole Family, Friends & Colleagues Throughout the Year

Posted on May 10, 2024 by Publius Jr

Celebrating Life begins with your family, extended family, friends and colleagues.

We at saintpaulrepublicans.us would like to follow a tradition started by our admin Publius Jr who is the administrator since 2012.

In 2003 his father passed away in July. The attention of his aunts and uncles to him and his siblings during the initial bereavement period needed some sort of recognition. So the next year in 2004 he let his aunts and uncles know that he appreciated them in his life. He also created Aunts and Uncles day in July the 2nd Sunday to say thanks. It was actually very close to the birthday of one of his 4 uncles.

He noticed that siblings or cousins were not recognized so he started up Brothers, Sisters & Cousins day the 2nd Sunday of August. Some say there is a day in April for that but what can one really do in the month of April; no one picnics/BBQs in April. You can do more on a warm August Sunday.

So when He started in late May 2012 as the administrator of this site he wrote articles promoting the Family days of Mothers, Fathers, Aunts & Uncles, Brothers-Sisters & Cousins, and Grandparents Days. He hoped the new holidays would catch on everywhere.

In 2017 He started calling these holidays #PROLIFESundays. He wanted to include Friends & Colleagues Day in October 2017 but his self-imposed deadline for that article came and went as he scrambled to post Candidate Election articles.

Why celebrate a day for Friends & Colleagues? On an average day you spend a third of your day with your colleagues at work; and friends give you advice and give you some breathing space in forms of athletic outings or fun activities. Let’s face it not everyone is married and friends are the life line for many single people. Paul had Barnabas, and Jesus had 12 main disciples who were friends and also his colleagues. Life would be so bland without your friends. So why not say thank you to them for enriching your life?

Why #ProlifeSundays?

We Christian Conservative Republicans see nurturing and supporting life as natural as breathing. Those who mislabel themselves as Pro-Choice are really Anti-Life. You see Anti-Life in many things they do: making healthcare decisions for you; putting government concerns before you; stealing your salary in incremental bits called taxes and spending it on programs that take your “choices” away from you; and putting unelected judges as governors over the elected Representatives, Senators, State Governors, and our President. We are actually “Pro-Choice” as in the idea of allowing you to decide on how to live your life without the government meddling in your affairs. As for reproductive rights as the Anti-Life people refer to, we believe you have a choice on whether to engage in risky behavior outside of your marriage or before it that possibly might result in a pregnancy. You can refrain from letting your passion take over in those circumstances especially if you’re not married.

Lately the Anti-Life People have been pushing their new morality of same sex marriages and self identifying themselves as the opposite gender than they were born as. Now they add surgical “gender affirming care,” aka mutilation of minors who don’t need parental notification, nor do they get informed consent before they are forever changed whether they change their minds or not to embrace their new life choice. They are choosing to be sterile based upon lies and encouragement from really demented demon possessed people. If one decides they want to give up that lifestyle it is against the law now to provide counseling to receive “conversion therapy.”

Easter, or Resurrection Day is the ultimate celebration of Life as Jesus Christ conquered death for us.

So Celebrate Life with your family & friends in everything you do.

Dates of #PROLIFESundays:

March 31          Resurrection (Easter) Day
May 12              Mother’s Day
June 16             Father’s Day
July  14             Aunts’ & Uncles’ Day
August 11         Brothers, Sisters & Cousins Day
September 8  Grandparents Day
October 20      Friends & Colleagues Day

Father’s Day this year falls on another Pro Life Holiday of Juneteenth Weekend. A day that commemorates Texas slaves finally hearing they were set free by President Abraham Lincoln on June 19, 1865, almost 2 months after his death and 2 and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation (an Executive Order by Lincoln) was given.  It is a celebration of freedom from a life of bondage.

In November there is a #ProLifeThursday on Thanksgiving where most people give thanks for their God given blessings, their family and job; eat well, and watch football.

In December saintpaulrepublicans.us celebrates the entire month the history and contributions of Christians in American History.
