The True President on Memorial Day

From the Desk of Donald J. Trump:

On this Memorial Day, we remember the fallen heroes who took their last breaths in defense of our Nation, our families, our citizens, and our sacred freedoms. The depth of their devotion, the steel of their resolve, and the purity of their patriotism has no equal in human history. On distant battlefields, in far-off oceans, and high in the skies above, they faced down our enemies and gave their lives so that America would prevail. They made the supreme sacrifice so that our people can live in safety and our Nation can thrive in peace. It is because of their gallantry that we can together, as one people, continue our pursuit of America’s glorious destiny.

We owe all that we are, and everything we ever hope to be, to these unrivaled heroes. Their memory and their legacy is immortal. Our loyalty to them and to their families is eternal and everlasting.

America’s warriors are the single greatest force for justice, peace, liberty, and security among all the nations ever to exist on earth. God bless our fallen Soldiers, Sailors, Coast Guardsmen, Airmen, and Marines. We honor them today, forever, and always.".......

Please DO NOT give up on our young servicemen and women because of the Jellyroll Vindman twins or the other brown-nose Biden-sniffers and perfumed princes at the Pentagon. 

Case in point:

Nobody made these 2019 cadets pose with the Actual President. They wanted to be there because the Heart of Liberty beats in them, too.

“Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God”: Memorial Day, 2021

"There they now stood, side by side...with arms in their hands, silent and fearless, willing to shed their blood for their rights...John Parker, the strongest and best wrestler in Lexington, had promised never to run from the British troops; and he kept his vow. A wound brought him on his knees. Having discharged his gun, he was preparing to load it again, when he was stabbed by a bayonet, and lay on the post which he took at the morning's drumbeat..."--Historian George Bancroft, founder of the Naval Academy, on the Battle of Lexington Green, where 70-some Minute Men faced 700 British Regulars, Apr. 19, 1775.

My grandfather was a mule-skinner in France during WW I. My other grandfather was WW II Navy. My uncle was at Normandy. My other uncle career Navy.

My father was Korean-Era Navy aboard the USS Coral Sea aircraft carrier. My oldest brother was Nam-era Army. My youngest brother career Army in Panama, Somalia, Afghanistan, etc. His wife Army also, and their kids.

We didn’t consider ourselves a military family, particularly. 

Just Americans.

Meet Your Son

One More Night

Fallen U.S. Marine 2nd Lt. James Cathey and his wife Katherine with their unborn son.

Their story is told through Todd Heisler's 2017 Pulitzer photographs.

And now "the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans" again. These are the New Centurions, the giants who make our Age possible.

Thank you, Lt. Cathey and Mrs. Cathey. Thank you, our patriots, our brothers and our sisters, on behalf of a grateful nation...and a grateful me.

The "strewing with flowers..."

Mark Steyn:  The Loss of Proportion - Memorial Day, 2004

"Memorial Day in my corner of New Hampshire is always the same. A clutch of veterans from the Second World War to the Gulf march round the common, followed by the town band, and the scouts, and the fifth-graders. The band plays "Anchors Aweigh," "My Country, 'Tis of Thee," "God Bless America" and, in an alarming nod to modernity, Ray Stevens' "Everything Is Beautiful (In Its Own Way)" (Billboard No. 1, May 1970). One of the town's selectmen gives a short speech, so do a couple of representatives from state organizations, and then the fifth-graders recite the Gettsyburg Address and the Great War's great poetry. There's a brief prayer and a three-gun salute, exciting the dogs and babies. Wreaths are laid. And then the crowd wends slowly up the hill to the Legion hut for ice cream, and a few veterans wonder, as they always do, if anybody understands what they did, and why they did it.

Before the First World War, it was called Decoration Day - a day for going to the cemetery and "strewing with flowers or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion." Some decorated the resting places of fallen family members; others adopted for a day the graves of those who died too young to leave any descendants.

I wish we still did that. Lincoln's "mystic chords of memory" are difficult to hear in the din of the modern world, and one of the best ways to do it is to stand before an old headstone, read the name, and wonder at the young life compressed into those brute dates: 1840-1862. 1843-1864.

In my local cemetery, there's a monument over three graves, forebears of my hardworking assistant, though I didn't know that the time I first came across them. Turner Grant, his cousin John Gilbert and his sister's fiance Charles Lovejoy had been friends since boyhood and all three enlisted on the same day. Charles died on March 5, 1863, Turner on March 6, and John on March 11. Nothing splendid or heroic. They were tentmates in Virginia, and there was an outbreak of measles in the camp.

For some reason, there was a bureaucratic mixup and the army neglected to inform the families. Then, on their final journey home, the bodies were taken off the train at the wrong town. It was a Saturday afternoon and the stationmaster didn't want the caskets sitting there all weekend. So a man who knew where the Grants lived offered to take them up to the next town and drop them off on Sunday morning.

When he arrived, the family was at church, so he unloaded the coffins from his buggy and left without a word or a note to anyone. Imagine coming home from Sunday worship and finding three caskets waiting on the porch. Imagine being young Caroline Grant, and those caskets contain the bodies of your brother, your cousin and the man to whom you're betrothed.

That's a hell of a story behind the bald dates on three tombstones.".......

On this Memorial Day 2021, we give thanks to our Heavenly Father for those warriors who gave their lives for us that we might live our lives in freedom. Amen.

They answered the call. They gave it all. And we remember them.

We honor their sacrifice by standing for that Liberty today and opposing in our time the tyranny they opposed in theirs.

Lee Harris: "Forgetfulness occurs when those who have been long inured to civilized order can no longer remember a time in which they had to wonder whether their crops would grow to maturity without being stolen or their children sold into slavery by a victorious foe. . . . They forget that in time of danger, in the face of the Enemy, they must trust and confide in each other, or perish. They forget, in short, that there has ever been a category of human experience called the Enemy. And that, before 9/11, was what had happened to us. The very concept of the Enemy had been banished from our moral and political vocabulary. An enemy was just a friend we hadn't done enough for -- yet. Or perhaps there had been a misunderstanding, or an oversight on our part -- something that we could correct. And this means that that our first task is that we must try to grasp what the concept of the Enemy really means. The Enemy is someone who is willing to die in order to kill you. And while it is true that the Enemy always hates us for a reason -- it is his reason, and not ours.".......

But what happens when the Enemy is Within, "Domestick" and allied with the Foreign, as all of our Founding Fathers warned?

America’s Great Seal as designed by Benjamin Franklin in August, 1776. Jefferson also believed this, using the phrase on his own seal.

     “Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God”

“Rays from a Pillar of Fire in the Clouds reaching to Moses.”

We Bind Satan, all his minions and all his works in High Places. We bind the spirit of pedophilia, of perversion, of child sacrifice, of mad science, of treachery, of bribery, of betrayal, of race hatred, of oppression, of murder, of sedition and of treason. Be LOOSED RIGHT NOW and be cast to the bottom of the sea, in the Mighty Name of Christ Jesus, the Name above all names, Amen and Amen.

"This weekend, we mark the [156th] anniversary of the first official observation of the holiday we now call Memorial Day, as established by General John A. Logan’s “General Order No. 11” of the Grand Army of the Republic dated May 5, 1868. This order reads in part: “The 30th day of May 1868 is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers and otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies lie in almost every city, village and hamlet churchyard in the land.” Logan’s order in fact ratified a practice that was already widespread, both in the North and the South, in the years immediately following the Civil War.

It’s hard to get Americans in this day and age to remember the true meaning of Memorial Day. Alas, for too many, Memorial Day has come to mean nothing more than another three-day weekend, albeit the one on which the beaches open, signifying the beginning of summer. Unfortunately, the tendency to see the holiday as merely an opportunity to attend a weekend cook-out obscures even the vestiges of what the day was meant to observe: a solemn time, serving both as catharsis for those who fought and survived, and to ensure that those who follow will not forget the sacrifice of those who died that the American Republic and the principles that sustain it, might live. ... 

By all means, have a hot dog or a hamburger this weekend. If you’re close to a beach or a lake, take advantage of the nice weather and go. But on Memorial Day, take some time to remember the John Bobos and the Paul Ray Smiths who died to make your weekend possible."-- Mac Owens

And the rest of your year, for that matter.

Heavenly Father, we pray that soon, their brothers and sisters-in-arms will have a Commander-in-Chief again worthy of the title. Amen.

John 15:11-17

The Message Bible

11-15 “I’ve told you these things for a purpose: that my joy might be your joy, and your joy wholly mature. This is my command: Love one another the way I loved you. This is the very best way to love. Put your life on the line for your friends. You are my friends when you do the things I command you. I’m no longer calling you servants because servants don’t understand what their master is thinking and planning. No, I’ve named you friends because I’ve let you in on everything I’ve heard from the Father.

16 “You didn’t choose me, remember; I chose you, and put you in the world to bear fruit, fruit that won’t spoil. As fruit bearers, whatever you ask the Father in relation to me, he gives you.

17 “But remember the root command: Love one another."

"I Was the Fastest Girl in Connecticut. But Transgender Athletes Made it an Unfair Fight" by Chelsea Mitchell

 I Was the Fastest Girl in Connecticut. But Transgender Athletes Made it an Unfair Fight. | Alliance Defending Freedom (adflegal.org)

"It’s February 2020. I’m crouched at the starting line of the high school girls’ 55-meter indoor race. This should be one of the best days of my life. I’m running in the state championship, and I’m ranked the fastest high school female in the 55-meter dash in the state. I should be feeling confident. I should know that I have a strong shot at winning.

Instead, all I can think about is how all my training, everything I’ve done to maximize my performance, might not be enough, simply because there’s a runner on the line with an enormous physical advantage: a male body.

I won that race, and I'm grateful. But time after time, I have lost.

I’ve lost four women’s state championship titles, two all-New England awards, and numerous other spots on the podium to male runners. I was bumped to third place in the 55-meter dash in 2019, behind two male runners. With every loss, it gets harder and harder to try again.

That’s a devastating experience. It tells me that I’m not good enough; that my body isn’t good enough; and that no matter how hard I work, I am unlikely to succeed, because I’m a woman.

That experience is why three of my fellow female athletes and I filed a lawsuit last year with Alliance Defending Freedom against the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference (CIAC): because girls and women shouldn’t be stripped of their right to fair competition.

The CIAC allows biological males to compete in girls’ and women’s sports. As a result, two males began racing in girls’ track in 2017. In the 2017, 2018, and 2019 seasons alone, these males took 15 women’s state track championship titles (titles held in 2016 by nine different girls) and more than 85 opportunities to participate in higher level competitions that belonged to female track athletes.

That’s because males have massive physical advantages. Their bodies are simply bigger and stronger on average than female bodies. It’s obvious to every single girl on the track.

But Connecticut officials are determined to ignore the obvious. And unfortunately, a federal district court recently dismissed our case. The court’s decision to do so tells women and girls that their feelings and opportunities don’t matter, and that they can’t expect anyone to stand up for their dignity and their rights.

That’s wrong. And it chips away at women’s confidence and our belief in our own abilities.

It’s happened to me over and over. Every time I walk up to the starting line, I try to tell myself that I can overcome the unfair odds — I can win, even though the race is stacked against me.

But besides the psychological toll of experiencing unfair losses over and over, the CIAC’s policy has more tangible harms for women. It robs girls of the chance to race in front of college scouts who show up for elite metes, and to compete for the scholarships and opportunities that come with college recruitment. I’ll never know how my own college recruitment was impacted by losing those four state championship titles to a male. When colleges looked at my record, they didn’t see the fastest girl in Connecticut. They saw a second- or third-place runner.

And it’s not just happening to me. My friend and fellow plaintiff Selina Soule was bumped from qualifying for the state championship 55-meter final and an opportunity to qualify for the New England championship by a male runner in 2019. Meanwhile, Alanna Smith, an incredibly talented female athlete, was the second-place female runner in the 200-meter at the New England Regional Championships, but was dropped to third behind a male competitor.

It’s discouraging that the federal district court has decided that these experiences — these lost opportunities — simply don’t matter.

But I’m not beaten yet. And neither are my fellow female athletes.

Through our ADF attorneys, my fellow athletes and I are appealing the federal district court’s ruling. We’re taking our case to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit, where we are going to ask once again for the court to recognize our right to fair competition — a right that Title IX has promised to girls and women for 50 years. And we’re fighting not just for ourselves, but for all female athletes.

So as we prepare for this next step in the case, I’m settling into my starting blocks again, but for a different kind of race. And this time, I’m confident that we can win.".......

USA Today Pulls 'Male' From Female Runner's Trans Op-Ed After Publication (thefederalist.com)

That's perfect, really.

USA Today removed Chelsea's word "male" from the body of the text (though the headline is hers) and substituted their own word choice, "transgender", in a move emblematic of the entire issue. 

It's not just censorship. It is journalistic fraud to put your words in someone else's mouth and then put their name on it. Manufactured Consent. 

They want to remove your choice and your voice. To dictate what everyone can say, do and think. To impose their moral depravity and mental illness on others by force and by fraud. "You will be made to care." 

It's all about CONTROL. They mean to control us. Period.

No. Hell, No.

Jack Is Back, He's Brought Some Friends and He's Fucking Pissed

 Can't Blame Him, Either

“…Those who possess wealth and power…must accept their own responsibilities. They must lead the fight for those basic reforms which alone can preserve the fabric of their own societies. Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

—Pres. John F. Kennedy, to Latin American diplomats, March 13, 1962–not foreseeing that the CIA would remove him the next year. And that one day, a half a century later, the CIA would remove yet another president and the United States of America would be the biggest Banana Republic of them all.

And by the hand of his own Party, no less--conspiring with Uni-Party Republican thieves, to be sure.

Yet still, the principles he avowed on that day are as true now as they were then, and as true for America as for any other nation. Ask any Founder.

This Has Happened Before

Like our Founders, we wish to avoid violent revolution at all costs--except at the cost of slavery. We wish to be free at all costs, too. Yet we see no sign of the Ruling Class stepping away from their Corruption and Tyranny. If anything, they're doubling down.

We thought these issues were settled. We thought we had a Constitution guaranteeing  basic Rights, limiting Government power and establishing Honest Elections and the Rule of Law. We thought we had built institutions to safeguard our liberties. None of that is true.

The Constitution is toilet paper. New Rights are invented out of thin air while Ancient Rights are suppressed. Elections are Rigged. The Rule of Law is in civilizational freefall. The Government is Unlimited by almost any principle except rote habit, and they're working on that. And all the institutions we built to protect our liberties have turned inward to attack those liberties.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction," said President Reagan--but now, we're down to less than a generation. Elections are what civilized people do instead of fighting it out in the streets. If you take that away, what is left? Installing the losers by Election Fraud is the very opposite of the representative government which is our Right.

But instead of promising to provide honest elections going forward, the Stepford Stalinists insist that nothing is wrong, nothing even more Election Fraud won't cure.

And most Republicans act like the loss of self-rule by the People is just some little glitch and a great fund-raising opportunity.

The Reckoning Awaits.

A Fired Up Mike Lindell Eviscerates AZ Governor Ducey and GA Governor Kemp, Documents Their Fraud Against the Republican Base - The Last Refuge (theconservativetreehouse.com)

“Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is the head of the Republican Election Integrity Unit.”

That’s the Best Metaphor for Our Times since the FBI confiscated the Huepers’ Declaration of Independence as subversive literature.

“…and the election results will be transmitted to our servers in Shenzhen where we will graciously tally them for you. You don’t have to lift a finger–except to sign. More tea?”

Kemp with his employer, literally giving away Georgia's heritage

That is Governor Kemp meeting with Consul General Li Qiangmin. Two weeks later, and just in time for the Election Fraud Coup, he purchased the Dominion CheatWare Machines, which are made in China and report to China. The Embassy was closed as a spy's nest and the documents burned. 

Georgia Secretary of State Raffensperger then signed a Consent Decree with Lawfare Democrats eliminating all security precautions for Mail-In ballots. btw, Brian Kemp rigged elections and wiped servers when he was Secretary of State, too. 

And this is who Republican Governors Association put in charge of election security? Not to mention electing Arizona's crooked election scumbag Doug Dicey as their leader. 

I don’t believe crooked governors have the right to give the People’s Elections to private corporations any more than a governor could hand off his National Guard authority to a business. Elections are the proprietary property of voters, not CheatWare Voting Machine syndicates. Period.

There are a few good, even great governors there, but as Mark Steyn once said;  

“It’s a good basic axiom that if you take a quart of ice-cream and a quart of dog feces and mix ’em together the result will taste more like the latter than the former. That’s the problem with the U.N.”

And that's the problem with the Republican Governor's Association, too. Except we expect the U.N. to sell out our Rights as Americans.

It’s no accident, either. The Governors are siding with Big CheatWare while trying to fool us that they are with us on the side of Honest Elections.

They’re not, Jack.

 ps:  if Kowtow Kemp and Rickshaw Raffensperger have agreed to an audit, that only means they believe they have successfully buried the evidence. As if that will stop Freedom.
