The Revolutionary War was fought over government oppression and intrusion. The corrupt government we have today has passed oppressive tax bills, restricted our Rights, openly defies the Constitution, and slowly grinds away at our freedom. Our founding fathers would be ashamed of our current situation.

I am sure that Jefferson and the other Founding Fathers would be very disappointed in us. We have forgotten the lessons they tried to teach us.

I think Mr. Jefferson would be totally discussed with what is happening in our Nation right now. I think he would be calling for another armed Revolution. ❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thomas Jefferson would surely say, I asked you to heed my words or suffer the consequences, and you have failed miserably. He would hardly recognize what he and the other founders gave us.

Thank you Tara.

It makes one wonder what any of the founders would think of today!

We should try that. This liberty idea would be a game changer. 🤔

Thomas Jefferson would be among many others from those days that would be shocked, dismayed and disappointed at how far we have strayed from the values and principles this nation was founded upon. Indeed there are a lot of Americans today that feel that way. Have a wonderful weekend, Tara.

Funny, fb must not like this post, it never showed up in my feed. Not really unusual anymore. Now, about the content of Jefferson's letter, the totally corrupt current administration does not allow for desension. In the name of climate change, more power is being transferred to unelected beauracrats , the end result is total control.

Unfortunately, people have many different definitions of “Liberty”!

My firm belief is that our nation’s Founders used Christianity as their basis in composing our original Constitution and Bill of Rights!

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness!!

Thank you Tara!
