Religious liberty victories have recently unfolded at the U.S. Supreme Court, yet such freedoms are in peril in various nations across the globe, with confusion clouding free speech and exercise rights. From a U.K. Army vet being charged after refusing to pay a fine for silently praying outside of an abortion clinic to a Finnish politician on trial for tweeting a Bible verse about sexuality, there’s no shortage of concerning and eyebrow-raising cases.
Regardless of First Amendment wins here in America, it’s clear the battle for freedom is nowhere near over. Jeremy Dys, senior counsel for First Liberty, a conservative law firm, offered a candid assessment when asked if Americans risk seeing the same sorts of cases develop here. “I really hope that that risk is low, but I can’t say that it is zero, because there’s always forces that want to restrict our religious liberty for reasons I don’t quite understand,” Dys said. “In fact, that’s the very reason why the Founding Fathers put the First Amendment in place to begin with.”
The attorney said the Founders knew governments throughout history have had a history of restraining people’s religious liberty — and wanted to afford protections for citizens. Dys pointed to high school football coach Joe Kennedy’s Supreme Court victory last year, noting the coach had to battle all the way to the high court to secure the right to pray at the 50-yard line.
Despite the current risks, Dys said he’s thankful for the constitutional protections on the books. But he believes it’s up to Americans to truly defend and protect the rights for which so many have fought and died. “I’m grateful that we have a First Amendment [and] we have got other laws in place that protect our religious freedom,” he said. “But it falls to you and I to make sure we’re maintaining our vigilance to preserve these freedoms going forward for our next generations.”
At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.

ALL the Ills and evils of the entire world today can be summed up in five words: “PEOPLE DON’T FEAR GOD ANYMORE.”
If religious liberty were in danger then Muslims, Jews and the litany of left leaning “Christian” churches would be in danger as well. The government is after one group and one group only. Patriots who love this country.
