In 1776, Thomas Paine lit the fire with Common Sense. It was a call to clarity, courage, and action. Today, America needs a new version. Not nostalgia; renewal. Common Sense 2025.

Let’s dive in. 🇺🇸 #AmRev Image
Paine’s genius was simplicity. He cut through the fog. No half-measures, no hedging. His words reached farmers, artisans, and merchants alike. The truth was self-evident; tyranny must be broken. Image
Common Sense 2025 is not about Britain or kings. It’s about us. About whether we will live as free men, speaking truth without fear, or as broken horses; tamed, censored, and compliant. Image
The Founders knew that the greatest chains are not forged of iron, but of the mind. Paine’s pamphlet shattered illusions. Ours must too. Image
America’s crisis today is not distant. It is not abstract. It is the erosion of virtue, the silencing of speech, the surrender of courage. Paine would tell us: stop excusing, stop waiting, start acting. Image
The enemy is not far away. It is within; every time we choose comfort over conviction, silence over truth, ease over responsibility. Image
The Revolution was not won by elites in marble halls. It was carried by ordinary men and women who refused to bend. That spirit, grit, faith, courage, is the foundation we must recover. Image
What does Common Sense 2025 demand? Speak freely. Live virtuously. Take responsibility. Refuse dependency. Build communities rooted in faith and excellence. That is how republics endure. Image
Our Founders knew: freedom requires vigilance, sacrifice, and moral courage. Liberty dies not in foreign lands, but when citizens surrender it at home. 🇺🇸 #AmRev @elonmusk @realDonaldTrump Image

Before Jefferson or Locke echoed across the colonies, there were the Levellers: radical Englishmen who fought tyranny with pen and sword, declaring all men were born with “natural rights.” Their ideas helped ignite the very spirit that birthed America.

Let’s dive in. 🇺🇸 #AmRev Image
The Levellers emerged during England’s Civil War (1640s); a time when kings claimed divine right and Parliament bowed low. But ordinary soldiers and citizens began to ask: by what authority? They believed liberty came not from kings, but from God and nature. Image
Their leaders, John Lilburne, Richard Overton, William Walwyn, wrote pamphlets demanding freedom of conscience, equality before the law, and representative government.
Their rallying cry? “Freeborn Englishmen.” Image

Jonathan Edwards is often remembered for “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God.” But his legacy is much deeper: a visionary theologian, philosopher, and revivalist who helped lay America’s moral and intellectual foundations.

Let’s dive in. 🇺🇸 #AmRev Image
Born in 1703 in colonial Connecticut, Edwards was a prodigy. By 13, he was at Yale, studying not only theology but also science, Newton, and Locke. His mind fused Enlightenment reason with Puritan faith; a rare balance of intellect and piety. Image
As pastor in Northampton, Massachusetts, Edwards became a leading voice of the Great Awakening. His sermons were not emotional spectacles, but carefully reasoned appeals, showing that truth, conscience, and Scripture must awaken the heart. Image

We think life is hard today; housing out of reach, families stretched thin, prices soaring. But early Americans clawed survival from nothing. Indentured, impoverished, exiled, yet they built a Republic through grit, faith, and sacrifice.

Let’s dive in. 🇺🇸 #AmRev Image
Indentured servants, often poor Europeans, signed away years for passage to America. Bound to masters, they toiled in fields, facing abuse, no marriage without permission. This “slavery” of labor built colonies, echoing biblical calls to endure for freedom’s sake. Image
Early arrivals battled starvation, disease; Jamestown lost most to “starving time.” Harsh winters, native conflicts tested souls. Yet, like Proverbs 24:16, the righteous rose again, their faith in Providence fueling unyielding determination. Image

The Founders did not build a nation on comfort. They drew from Aristotle’s pursuit of arete: excellence, and eudaimonia, human flourishing through virtue. America was born to challenge mediocrity and rise to greatness.

Let’s dive in. 🇺🇸 #AmRev Image
For Aristotle, arete meant more than skill. It meant virtue in action: courage, wisdom, temperance. Jefferson and Adams read this not as abstract theory but as the fuel for republican life. Only a virtuous people could remain free. Image
Eudaimonia was the goal: not fleeting pleasure, but lasting human flourishing rooted in reason, virtue, and purpose. The Founders echoed this in the pursuit of happiness; not comfort, but excellence in living. Image

In the fiery forge of the American Revolution, did secret societies like the Illuminati weave hidden threads into our nation’s fabric? Boldly exploring this theory to reclaim the Founders’ true spirit of faith, virtue, and liberty.

Let’s dive in. 🇺🇸 #AmRev Image
Founded in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt, the Illuminati pushed a “new order” via reason over faith. Coincidence with our Declaration? Theorists claim they infiltrated Freemasonry, steering the Revolution from divine providence to control. Image
Founders like Washington, Franklin were Masons. Did Illuminati ideals push Deism, eroding biblical roots of our moral fire? America’s soul rests on God’s sovereignty, not secrets. Image

After the Revolution, John Paul Jones sought a new stage. Where? Imperial Russia. In 1788, he commanded ships at the Siege of Ochakov during Catherine the Great’s war against the Ottoman Empire. His story there is stranger than fiction.

Let’s dive in. 🇺🇸 #AmRev Image
Jones, restless after his American fame, accepted service in the Russian navy. Catherine the Great gave him the rank of rear admiral. His mission: bring discipline and daring to the Black Sea fleet against the Ottoman Turks. Image
The Siege of Ochakov (1788) was brutal. Russian forces under Prince Potemkin sought to capture the fortress city on the Black Sea. Turkish forces resisted fiercely, and disease and heat devastated both armies. Image
