Isaiah 1:18 (KJV), “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord…” I remember the murder of Dutch film director Theo van Gogh in November 2004. He had completed a film titled “Submission: Part 1,” which criticized the treatment of women in Islam. Van Gogh was shot and had…
Greetings, everyone, from the Doubletree Hotel in Jackson, Tennessee, where I just missed two tornadoes that hit earlier today (Tuesday, 20 May). I am on the road heading to Washington, DC for Rolling to Remember, aka Rolling Thunder. It is the great Veterans motorcycle ride supporting our POW/MIAs, the overall…
There has been lots of chatter about President Donald J. Trump running for another term in office. As all know, or should, that is not constitutionally possible; he will have served two terms, regardless of them being non-consecutive. The 22d Amendment of the US Constitution, which was ratified on February…
Recently, I attended the 250th anniversary of the start of the American Revolution, the Battle of Lexington. I found it quite ironic that 250 years ago, the British were marching inland towards Concord, Massachusetts, to destroy a weapons and armaments factory supplying the Sons of Liberty. They were executing the…
2 Corinthians 3:17 (NIV), “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” Greetings everyone, and this is a very special week for the Christian faith, it is Holy Week. It is the week that is bookended by the arrival of our…
In the military, we believe that the reality of your enemy must become your own, or it will be at a time of grave disadvantage. Let’s put all silly pretense aside and come to the realization that Communist China is our number one geopolitical foe—they see us as such. China…
Recently, the US Supreme Court issued a 5-4 decision to support President Trump’s March 15th Executive Order designating certain criminal illegal immigrant gangs as terrorist organizations and their members as terrorists. Interestingly enough, Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined with leftist Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Brown-Jackson. President Trump invoked the 1798…
I am sure everyone recognizes the title of this missive from the admonition of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. That act by a belligerent Imperial Japan thrust America into a War fought in two theaters of operation. It was a war against a clear and…
At first, it seemed just a whim, but now we have a serious case of domestic terrorism on our hands. This whole Tesla terrorism issue, where dealerships are being firebombed, and drivers are being assaulted, is a very disconcerting matter. And it is not just something happening here in the…
The Alien Enemies Act of 1798 (“Act”) allows the president to detain or deport the natives and citizens of an “enemy” nation with little, if any, due process. The Act is codified at 50 USC Chapter 3: Alien Enemies (also see the transcription of the original act at the bottom…
“A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all…
Roman Poet Virgil (19 BC) is attributed with the saying “Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat,” which we know as fortune favors the bold. Back when I was a young Army Major, I was the Executive Officer (second in command) of the 1st Battalion (Air Assault), 377th Field Artillery Regiment, 18th Field Artillery…
