A Bit of Wisdom from George Washington
Mount Vernon, VA....George Washington, February 22, 1732 – December 14, 1799.
"If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." George Washington
George Washington had pretty strong ideas on the value of free speech. In fact his quote pretty much says it all. "If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter."
George Washington
This sign is the first in Hewn's "Founding Fathers" series of quote signs featuring some of the best quotes on Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of happiness we have enjoyed for the last 248 years.
These will be perfect for the wall of an office or study to give it not only a "Bit of Wisdom" from the past but rustic early Americana as well.
Each sign is engraved on a live edged piece of aged wood. Each sign has patina and character from the uniqueness of each piece of wood. The darkness and texture of the engraving will vary slightly from sign to sign ensuring that each sign is uniquely yours.
Each sign is finished with a light linseed oil coating and a sisal twine attached to the back suitable for hanging.
Signs vary slightly in size and thickness as well. The standard size is 11 to 12 inches wide by 8 to 10 inches high.
This handcrafted product is priceless but you can have yours for only $29.99.
They can be picked up at the Hewn Mountain Farmstand for free or shipped anywhere for a $10 flat shipping price.

It needs a comma after away, or to have the first line all on the top row so the comma is implied.

Freedom Of Speech Trashed by Reich Wing GOP

The abuse of the first amendment by the reich is a serious problem in America.
The day after the inauguration of the con don, taking office the Kellyanne Conway said "we have alternative facts". This is also known as knowingly lying.
Fox is well know as a purveyor of mostly lies, and has brainwashed those who watch it. In a sampling, Fox viewers were severely misinformed , to the point of those who don't listen to the news media , or read newspapers were more accurately informed on issues than Fox viewers. This intentional the lying to viewers was exposed in a lawsuit, in court the head of Fox admitted it is not news, but 90% commentary, the name "Fox news" is a misnomer.
don the con is a serial liar, at his rallies, and in debates , interviews, he repeats tens of lies.
The reich wing is mostly a lie machine, all mfor their sponsors, the billionaires and wealthy.
Vance , the mini me next to the con don, is also a serial liar, so much so that many in the GOP for many years want both gone, as they are trashing the name The Republican Party.
It is to the point that theses long time Republicans now have a campaign- Republicans for Harris.

But to George's point. If you look at the tragic stuff happening in the UK right now where they may not recover their freedoms. It reinforces the point that free speech must be absolute!
It is the safety valve and also once you really impinge it you can no longer believe anything.

In England, the reich wing fascists are fighting for white supremacy.
It's a backlash against people of color migrants there.
This is happening across Europe.
The migrants are refugees of the repressive systems from the countries they left.
Of course the reich wing in all countries are fueled by white supremacy.
This is the face of fascism, what the con don is , he and his GOP pals support Putin, Orban, Un, and others, he calls "strong".

Quit the BS, don't use made up crap just to eliminate free speech. True free speech includes the right to spew complete nonsense.
That is the point. Some people are nuts but even they have the right to speak and post.

Upwards of 80 percent of Americans say they have heard of Project 2025, a shocking number and one that probably gives Trump campaign officials night terrors and debilitating diarrhea. Unsurprisingly, hearing about the goals of the project – ending all environmental protections, ending public school, rolling back child labor laws, replacing the entire civil service with Trump worshippers, dismantling basic protections for LGBTQ people, launching a full scale invasion of Mexico for some reason – turned people off in big ways.
Trump has pretended not to know about Project 2025, even after appearing in public with the project’s architects and meeting with those in charge of implementing the dark plans spelled out in the 900-page how-to-fascism document. Unfortunately for the Big Boy, he said *bleep* like this to right-wing organizations back in 2022, before anyone but the nerdiest political junkies knew about the project: “This is a great group, and they’re going to lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do.”

Hi can you write "civil service" with a straight face :) DC is now the Waffen SS and we work for them. Time to fire everyone in DC and let they all reapply and only rehire the ones who have actually done their jobs.
I wonder how many DC swamp dwellers took "long lunch breaks" so they could join the Hamas protests?
How many Hamas protestors did we actually pay for with tax dollars?

It's probably no worse than us spending thousands of our tax dollars to kill thousands of Palestinian children.
You're happy about killing the kids right?
No worries there....

Embarrassing for 50 years . I wholeheartedly wouldn’t piss on a demonstration-democracy-democrat if they were on fire. Grave. Definitely a deliberate yelling dictatorship-disgrace. The donkey party. Should be abolished. Not American and following the constitution It’s abolishing the the law. Blah de-da-blah.

A message to voters: Look up Project 2025, scan through it, then tell me you are comfortable voting for Trump. Project 2025 afterall is the framework from which Trump will "rule" the country if he is re-elected. Go ahead average voter, check it out, then tell me why you would vote for Trump.
I'm waiting..........................................

By chance look up Kamala knee pad Harris policies and....oh wait, she doesn't have ANY. She only says what Trump told America months ago what she would do if elected. Her team even tells her do NOT say anything about what your policies you want. Why? Because she's dreaming of a Socialist country, where the lowest violent criminals will be treated like the person who is an honest, tax paying, hard working citizen. Open borders, no Border Patrol, disband ICE, and law enforcement will be almost eliminated...except to protect politicians and doing what the Dictator of this country tells them to do.
Why else has she still not had a press conference, why has she scratched out the debates, even the one Gavin Newsom had with Hannity, and Hannity showed no favoritism it's only because she has no policies, she's ignorant on just about everything, she was the most Woke, Liberal Senator in Congress and in her office as VP a turn over rate of 95% of her aides who Ms Knee Pad blamed them for her not doing her homework and then looking like the idiot she is. Her aides are told not to look at her in the eyes and when she walks into any room they're told to stand and all welcome her.
She and her team have even went on Google search to change headlines and then in small writing it's says it's a political Ad for Kamala Harris.

That's amazing, it's like President Washington looking at the Dumbacraps today. First they had a senile old fool for a president and now they think a prostitute should be president? By chance, do they put their hands out for food instead of working for it too?
