An Irishman walks down the street. He sees a fight between two men and walks over and taps one on the shoulder and says “is this a private fight or can anyone join?“

30 years ago, while in Rome, I went to dinner in a German restaurant with an Irish-American from Chicago.

The Chicagoan was Rev. Kevin O’Rourke, O.P., who had given a lecture on the growing evil trend of assisted suicide. Our conversation after his lecture continued on into dinner.

An hour or so later, Kevin said "you should move to St. Louis, Missouri and study bioethics and law. We’re starting a program there. We need guys who will fight on the good side."

I'd never been to St. Louis in my life ... but a a year later I drove under the Arch and started my life in The Gateway City.

I now consider myself a Midwesterner because of what happened to me in St. Louis. I learned to fight - for life, for family, and against the evil bastards stealing our America. As I'm an Irish American, I like to fight.

The Pro-America Report with Ed Martin Podcast is going to inform you. It will tell you what I see and why we should see our world through a lens that is for God, for America, for family, and for "we the people”.

But the Pro-America Report is also going to be about the fights we have to face and in which we need to engage. We cannot wait and debate - not any more.

Over the coming months and years, we have a chance - it may be a slim one - to save our America. It will take many of us and many fights.

It’s not a private fight, and you can join. First step: Stand!

More soon.

Hometown Hero: Edison Juel

And a Little Child Shall Lead Them…

SEATLE, WA — In the Pacific Northwest, a compassionate kindergartner, shocked by the devastation of the fires in Maui, set out to help in the best way he knew how — by setting up a lemonade stand. Over the course of just a few days, thanks to the stand, inspired patrons donating online, and matching gifts from his parents’ places of employment, Edison raised almost $20,000 over the course of a few days.

While the accomplishment in and of itself is noteworthy, what is truly amazing is that a young man had the heart and soul to recognize others in need and do what he could to help. If only more adults followed this young man’s lead, a lot of pain and suffering could be alleviated.

Until they do, we are here to celebrate this week’s Hometown Hero, Edison Juel.
