Helping founders grow with AI + timeless principles.
Rooted in faith, freedom & first principles.
DM if you're building something that matters.

[New Federalists Alliance @NewFederalistUS]

The Founding Fathers didn’t wing it.

They spent 116 days in the sweltering heat of Philadelphia — hashing out the bedrock beliefs that built a nation.

Not slogans.
Not soundbites.
But sweat and conviction.

At the New Federalists Alliance, we’ve picked up where they left off.

Not to preserve a memory — but to rebuild a future.

Faith. Freedom. Responsibility.
Not just values we admire — but principles we build on.
Now, we’re naming that foundation.

The Ten Pillars of Conservatism.

Drawn from our 40 Core Principles.
Tested. Timeless.

These are the truths that shape how we live — from parenting to policy, from community to country.
What we stand on.
What we stand for.
How we move forward — together.

📅 Join us Monday, April 21st at 8PM CST for a live unveiling of the Ten Pillars.

It’s more than a talk. It’s a turning point.
Follow us + save your seat (link in comments).

Because rebuilding America doesn’t start in Washington.

It starts with you.

What if conservatism isn’t what we’ve been told?

Not rage.
Not nostalgia.
Not party lines.

What if it’s about principles—the kind that build lasting prosperity?

And what if America’s decline (like Rome before us) traces directly to the erosion of those principles?

This Monday, we lay a new foundation:
✅What conservatism actually means
✅The 40 principles we built it on
✅The 9 institutions every free society depends on

Conservatism isn’t nostalgia.
It’s architecture.
Faith. Family. Free people.

April 14 @ 8PM CST (9PM EST, 7PM MT, 6PM PST)

The fight isn’t in Washington.
It starts with us.
If you care about saving this country, don’t miss it.

Bring a friend. Come ready.
Repost to bring others in.
Let’s revive the republic—together.

@Mark_McEathron All you can do is make the best decision with whatever information you have at the time.

[Dustin McElreath @DustinMcelreath]

Before we outsource our brains to AI,

Let’s get clear on what it’s actually good at.
And what it still can’t do for you.

✅ Automate repetitive tasks
✅ Speed up ideation + execution
✅ Scale personalization (with the right systems)
🚫 Replace strategic thinking
🚫 Make judgment calls
🚫 Lead your business

AI is a powerful tool —
But it’s still just that: a tool.

Want to see how I’m using it to scale results and save serious time?

Comment “show me” and I’ll send you a video breakdown next week.

[Dustin McElreath @DustinMcelreath]

AI won’t fix a broken business.
But it can scale whatever you’ve got.

Last summer, I built an AI agent to help founders understand their buyer.
The goal?
Sell smarter by knowing exactly what your audience is thinking.

3 clients tried it.
✅Client #1 doubled his sales in a month.
✅Client #2 nearly tripled sales in six weeks.
❌Client #3 Crickets. No bump. No leads. No lift.

The difference between Clients 1&2 and 3?
It wasn’t the AI.
It was clarity. Messaging. Follow-up.
(Or rather... the lack of it.)

AI amplifies.
It doesn’t alchemize.

I haven’t posted much in a while.
Not because I had nothing to say.
But because I've been doubling down on the things that last.

I stopped chasing “just do more.”
And started building systems that do more for me.

That shift led me straight into the world of AI.

And what I found there?
It’s not hype.
It’s not a shortcut.
It’s leverage — if you know how to use it.

I’ve been building quietly and testing deeply.
And now I’m ready to share what I’ve found here.

Because founders don’t need more noise.
They need clarity.
They need simplicity.
They need systems that scale — without costing your soul.
Especially now.

AI is the biggest leverage shift we’ve seen in decades.
And it’s only just getting started.

Curious where this is headed?
Follow along.

And if this resonates — drop a “👊” in the comments so I know you’re with me.

Hey Diana, great question!

We completely understand the importance of knowing who is shaping the curriculum—it’s critical that we have the right people with the right values leading this effort. Our team is made up of experienced educators, policy experts, and grassroots leaders who have spent years fighting for educational integrity, parental rights, and constitutional principles. While we respect their privacy in certain cases due to the hostile climate toward conservative educators.

This includes a policy expert who helped to advance conservative education policy in Florida, an Education Specialist who has helped develop curriculum at the university level, & others with experience & knowledge on founding principles & history.

Each of them plays a crucial role in ensuring that our curriculum is fact-based, pro-America, and free from ideological bias.

We’re really excited about the future of NFA! Thanks for your interest.

This is the youngest billionaire you never heard of...

He was an MIT dropout who built Stripe into a $95B company from his dorm room.

His growth strategy was so GENIUS that PayPal, Square, and Visa executives couldn't believe it.

Here's the full story: 🧵

[Dustin McElreath @DustinMcelreath]

For good Celtic historical fiction, Stephen Lawhead is good. You just have to get through the first chapter to get used to the writing style cuz he actually writes in an old Celtic style. Once you get used to it, it's pretty fun.

And his his pendragon cycle series is probably my favorite. But his King Raven series is solid as well.

For Christian devotion, the Pursuit of God by AW Tozer is unmatched. It's a book you could read in one sitting, but I'd recommend doing so one chapter per day for 10 days. Lots of depth.

For personal development... The Compound Effect is great. It Starts with Why by Sinek is solid.

For modern fun Christian Fiction, Ted Dekker's Circle Series is one of my favorites. And if you like it, there are about a dozen or so other related books attached to that world, most of which are good as well. That would probably fit into allegory, kind of like c.s Lewis Chronicles of Narnia but his own world.

And speaking of Lewis... He has a lesser known space trilogy which includes three books that were pretty interesting. Written well before Chronicles of Narnia.

For marriage or parenting, I really like Paul David Tripp. Focuses on gospel-centered approaches and doing both with grace. Very good.

Hope that helps!
