Why This Page Exists
Every room in Our House has a purpose.
This page is the front door — the moment where we pause, take a breath, and understand why Our House exists.
Before exploring content, come to grips with what's at stake.
This is the Reveille.
Not an alarm. Not a siren.
A clear, steady call to wake up, look around, see our country with unclouded eyes.
This is undoubtedly the most important subject of our generation. Bar none. Get this wrong- keep ignoring it to placate a bully- and we invite every election to be contested.
For once a weakness is shown, once a hack works, others take note. This will be repeated with even more devastating results if we do not reconsile this. Learn from it. Prevent it from happening again.
What Happened to Our House
On January 6, 2021, the United States faced something unprecedented: a sitting President coordinated an attempt to overturn a lawful election and disrupt the peaceful transfer of power.
It was not spontaneous.
It was not accidental.
It was not a misunderstanding.
It was an attack on you, me, our children and future grandchildren. It was an assault on constitutional order — planned and encouraged by leaders with ulterior motives, and fueled by narratives designed to fracture trust in our institutions.
The damage was not only physical. It struck at the foundation of self‑government: the idea that we settle our disagreements with ballots, not force.
Why It Still Matters
The networks, beliefs, and grievances that led to January 6 did not disappear when the Capitol was secured. They remain active in communities, online spaces, and political rhetoric. They are impacting future elections as you read this.
Each mid-term election, and each future Presidential election,
is threatened by the continued presence of those that planned the January 6th attack on Our House. The extremist groups that appeared on January 6 have not disappeared, and the people and networks that mobilized them once remain in power and able to use them again.
Our House: isn’t about reliving the past. It’s about understanding the conditions that made such a moment possible — so we can prevent it from happening again.
Time will not heal civic wounds when the wip that stung us, drew blood and caused the deaths of police officers, remains coiled and clutched in the hands of men and women still in power.
History is not an unavoidable pendulum swinging back toward us. This doesn't have to happen again. It doesn't have to signal a loss of trust in our institutions. It need not lead to states gerrymandering. But it will as long as we don't remove the instigators from all three federal branches of our government.
What’s at Stake for Every Citizen
Democracy is not self‑maintaining. The gains made for us to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness came at great price. The interest comes due each generation.
Our rights depend on millions of ordinary people choosing clarity over confusion, integrity over impulse, and responsibility over resentment. We must learn to elect leaders with integrity, not bullies with an axe to grind against the necks of our neighbors.
What’s at stake is simple and profound:
- The unity that once defined America
- The stability of our institutions
- The trust we hold in our congress, courts, and executive
- The safety of our neighbors
- The legitimacy of elections
- The norms that keep political competition peaceful
- The shared belief that truth matters
Our House and this site is not a partisan concern. It’s a civic one — the kind that belongs to all of us.
What future do we have if we do not stand as individuals and unite as communities when neither court nor congress restrain an executive that flaunts the law?
What dignity remains of America if we as a people don't demand an end to a government that attacks other nations without provocation. What dignity do we have when we allow a police-state upon our own soil that kills peaceful citizens and brands them terrorist before their names or motivations are know?
We will unite. But it will be hard work. It will require us to make crooked places straight. We will overcome if we care enough about our country and future to use our voices, votes, and money. Unity of purpose is the real strength of this country. We do not exist because of billionaires. They exist because of us.
What You’ll Find at Our House Center
This is our internet center. Here you will find ways to donate and ways to join the civic movement- knee high Free Speech with our memorial license plates and bumper stickers.
We are one of the definitive sites for material on the Insurrection. We have materials for individuals and educators, mobile displays and are working on a mini-series. But you needn't wait. Our Education Pages clarify the attacks and zero in on the motives of the chief instigator. We offer excellent Key Lesson sections at the end of education pages that have creative exercises for individuals and groups to hone their understanding.

You don’t need prior knowledge, political expertise, or special vocabulary. You only need the willingness to look closely and think clearly.
Your Role Moving Forward
Every citizen has a part to play in keeping Our House standing. Not through grand gestures, but through steady habits.
Understand these are not times of acquiescence, of slumber. We must awake, even if being "woke" may raise an eyebrow. Understand our best future is found along a hard path. One that will end when we finally achieve a democracy that extends our constitutional rights, Bill of Rights, and justice for all Americans. It will take time to put better leaders in place.
Your best chance to live a carefree life requires you to stir. Awaken. Your very wealth and freedom are bound in this struggle. We have a Congress that won't empeach. We have a Supreme Court that provided a pre-emptive pardon to a felon with crimes against the state. And an Executive that is nothing if not excrutiating in its tone, timber, and demeanor.
We must create an America where elected and appointed officials have integrity. A country where no man is deemed above the law.
Now is the time to admit we didn't pay close enough attention to the integrity of people we elected. Too many of our officials put their own loyalties, wealth and agendas ahead of The Peoples. Our times became harder because our government was sold to the highest bidder.
Now it is time to take it back- one bumper at a time. It is time to begin showing what power there is in ONE.
This is Our House, not yours or mine. And in it we are ONE.
