Roosevelt’s Muck Rake speech. All time fave! Delivered to House 1908 after he and McKinley fought in Spanish American war, after he became president in assassinated McKinley’s wake….he was speaking out against media propaganda and moral importance of high individual moral character.
He encourages agitation of authors of evil. Muckrakes look down at the dirt. Look up to our celestial crown. Ty Jesus!

1st inaugural Address: privilege to read this address; to feel the weight/movement of history. Neat to look back & consider how speeches do reflect what’s most important to a person. Washington 1st acknowledges his God who rules the Universe, presides over the council of Nations, supplies every human defect; his benediction consecrates liberties, happiness &success. He is Great Author of every public/private good

Liberty of Death Patrick Henry 1775. Fiery. Opinionated. Respectful. Very opposite of some. Freedom or slavery?
“Forbid it almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me Liberty or give me death!”
