We have to take our government back.In today's episode, Cicely Davis joins Jim and Dan.

That needs to change." - Cicely Davis06:34 - "We are down 300 police officers. And when the crime is committed, second count, and people are not getting the hasty response they need. This puts lives and businesses in danger." - Cicely Davis15:35 - "My message to black voting America right now, particularly for my cut or my pie here in CD 5, is that every skin to me is not kin to me. We have to be willing to accept that just because leaders look like us doesn't mean they're for us. We can begin change if we can go away from that and accept that. I do believe 2024 is going to look very different for black America about the Republican party." - Cicely Davis42:59 - "When people hear about the fact that they can literally wake up and express themselves freely without worrying about being arrested or killed because of a simple thought or opinion and that they have the right to decide what area they want to focus on and how they can create their wealth and be creative about that, and then pass it on to the next generation, that whole thing is beautiful." - Cicely Davis46:34 - "The Constitution made this country great. The people that followed that Constitution made this country great. Since the 16th and 17th Amendments back in 1913, we started falling off the rails. And we did nothing to stop it then. But just because it's so out of control doesn't mean we can't stop the bleeding now." - Jim Larkin51:26 - "Freedom is too high a price to pay. We have to decide what we want America to look like and how America is defined. Families are hurting, and businesses are hurting. And the decisions made by those we call our leaders have let us down. We, the people, by the people, and for the people have the power. We can absolutely vote them out and return the original constructs and the demands of the Constitution." - Cicely DavisConnect with Cicely DavisLinkedInWebsiteFacebookTwitterFollow the Pod Bless America Podcast on GETTRSubscribe to Freedom Square to know moreEngage with Pod Bless America PodcastEmail: [email protected]: [email protected] to more episodes of the Pod Bless America PodcastApple PodcastsSpotifyGoogle Podcasts
