Heirs of the Revolution: Our Civic Duty to Restore the Republic
We do not have the same level of liberty our founders gave us – a free people governing themselves, unburdened by an oppressive government and united by shared values. Once a beacon of liberty and self-governance, the Republic has devolved into an oppressive, centralized government as a result of entrenched corruption, civic apathy and moral decay.
In Heirs of the Revolution, Trent Staggs delivers a compelling call to action, reminding us that the freedoms we enjoy were hard-won and entrusted to us by the Founders as a sacred inheritance. It is not too late to turn the tide, but it will take courage and a high level of civic engagement on the principles that made America exceptional.
With a blend of historical context, modern-day examples, and actionable solutions, Heirs of the Revolution is a rallying cry for all Americans to reclaim their role as stewards of liberty. Staggs challenges readers to rise to the occasion, safeguard the principles that make America exceptional, and pass on a stronger Republic to future generations.

7 PILLARS
Restoring Citizenship
The value of American citizenship has been diminished, and we must reclaim the honor and responsibility it once carried. This includes addressing the lack of immigration enforcement, ending dual citizenship, and ensuring that only citizens can vote.
Restoring Elections
Without faith in the electoral system, democracy cannot survive. We believe in restoring integrity in elections, through voter ID laws, campaign finance reform, in-person voting, and paper ballots.
Restoring Morality
A moral and religious people are essential to the survival of a free Republic. We promote solutions for renewing the moral and religious fabric of the nation.
Restoring Ownership
The Founders fought a revolution over property rights, and today we are losing control over the fruits of our labor through excessive taxation and regulation. We promote the protection of property rights in America while combating the deep state to get back to Constitutional governance.
Restoring Self-Sufficiency
The welfare state and massive national debt are enslaving future generations. We support efforts that end dependency on government and promote individual responsibility and self-reliance.
Restoring the Family
The family is the bedrock of any great society, yet today it is under attack. We promote initiatives that strengthen the nuclear family, restore parental rights, and reverse the cultural decay that is tearing families apart.
Restoring National Defense
Defense should be defensive. We advocate for the maintenance of a strong military while avoiding entangling alliances and the unnecessary expansion of the military-industrial complex.
