Col Douglas Macgregor - Will Biden Stumble into a New World War? The video begins with China concerns; but the really interesting part of it is the in depth information from Colonel MacGregor about Trump's various attempts to pull out of Afghanistan and General Milley (No! no! no!) and Mitch McConnell's refusal to let him do so. The constitution may say that "The president shall be the commander in chief," but it is now "standard operating procedure" for the Deep State to make those decisions. Trump had similar experiences trying to pull out of NATO, declassify documents, grant pardons and...

I was interviewed by a local news station today, she wanted to know my opinion on the current world affairs, she asked me questions about the Florida "dont say gay" law, the war in Ukraine, and our Nations current status. I was giving her truthfull and logical answers however it took a while for her producers to realize she was interviewing a conservative and abruptly the interview was over. I think it might have been my opinion that Russia would never have attacked Ukraine under a strong President and that we are on the verge of WW3 because of the...

That time Trump called out the corruption in Ukraine with Zelensky sitting next to him... The look on Zelensky's face is priceless. I can't wait for this to unravel... short video at link.

Although vaccination is recognized as the cause of death by doctors and the insurance company, it has refused to pay out. The reason is because the side effects of the Corona jabs are known and published. They argue that the deceased took part in an experiment at his own risk. Covid-19 in itself is not classed as a “critical illness”. According to the company, an experimental vaccination resulting in death is like suicide The insurance company justified the refusal of payment to the family by stating that the use of experimental medication or treatments, including Corona injections, is expressly excluded...

​Meghan McCain ​on Thursday ​accused President Trump of creating an atmosphere in the military ​in which service members are afraid ​to display the name of her late father, Republican Sen. John McCain. “The president’s actions have consequences,” McCain, one of the hosts of ABC’s “The View​,​” said at the start of the program. ​”​And when you repeatedly are attacking my father and war heroes, it creates a culture in the military where people are clearly fearful to show my father’s name in one way or another. That is what I think has started this chain of events.​”​ ​McCain said Trump,...

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The Connecticut home of the man who carried out the 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary school has been demolished, Newtown officials said Tuesday. The 2-acre lot where the 3,100-square-foot house once stood in a leafy, suburban neighborhood will be left as open space under a plan approved by town officials. Several neighbors had asked for the building to be taken down, describing it as a constant reminder of the tragedy. Among them, Dave Ackart said in a letter: “Not only is the property a constant reminder of the evil that resided there – those of us...

(VIDEO-AT-LINK) Peg Brokaw, 95, had missed the early Saturday morning Mass at St. Rose of Lima, on Church Hill Road in Newtown, but said she would go inside and say a prayer, anyway. She has lived in this town a long time, and tells you her son is a retired policeman here, one who still directs traffic in front of the church occasionally. And because this was another December in Newtown, two years now since 20 children and six adults were shot dead inside Sandy Hook Elementary, because Peg Brokaw stood outside what became the church of small coffins in...

President Barack Obama has wisely chosen to ignore bipartisan bleating over the lawful use of his executive authority to address pressing issues long championed by the so-called professional left. He has instead decided to flex his muscle, at long last. He struck a deal with China to reduce greenhouse gases by 30 percent over the coming years, pushed for regulating the Internet as a public utility, raised the minimum wage of workers employed by companies with federal contracts, created gender equity rules for such employees and protected from deportation as many as 5 million undocumented immigrants. Also, his Environmental Protection...

Following reports yesterday that black and openly gay Democratic lawmakers were subjected to spitting and epithets from anti-health care reform protesters outside the Capitol, Republican leaders said Sunday that such incidents were "isolated" and "reprehensible." On CNN's "State of the Union," Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) denounced the use of such slurs "in the strongest terms possible." House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), said on NBC's "Meet the Press" that the "isolated incidents" were "reprehensible." Later on the same program, Michael Steele, the Republican National Committee's first black chairman, agreed that the incidents were "reprehensible," and added, "we do not support...

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Appearing before a religious conference earlier this week, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-New York) told the audience that as a child attending Sunday school she would baby-sit the children of migrant workers so that their older siblings could join their parents at work. "I was fortunate that at an early age, through my church, I was given the opportunity to expand my horizons," Clinton told the 600 adults and teenagers attending the Sojourners "Covenant for a New America" conference. Politically, the story served two purposes for the New York Democrat. It allowed her to promote a developing...

Hi, I have thought about this all night, John Kerry said his mother taught him integrity! integrity! integrity! well I'm curious as to what she taught him. I was taught and taught my children (I'm in my sixties)that integrity is one's ability to take responsibility for their Principals and ideals (values and standards that we set for ourselves) It is an element of our character. People with high principals and ideals set standards that they live by. Examples: honesty, Not hurting others, your word is your bond, stealing etc. For instance if you have a principal that stealing is wrong...

Why did Kerry's mother feel she had to remind him "Intergity! Integrity! Integrity!" from her hospital bed when he told her he was thinking of running for President? What did she know? My mother would have assumed I would have integrity in the same situation.
