Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.

When Will You Go to Jail? The FBI recently made 50 searches of former Trump Administration officials. The FBI is fishing, most likely, for anything that can be glued together for a conspiracy charge concerning the “January 6th” election process or mob. If the Feds are going after Trump officials, when will they come for you? And, what Federal outrage does it take for you to be willing to go to jail for your beliefs?
The release of the Wuhan virus in 2020 exposes fatal flaws in the Chinese Communist Party rule, effectively becoming China’s Chernobyl.
Anti-Southern Speech Police, attacking the defense of anything Confederate, and of course, any truthful criticism of sexual dysphoria and homosexuality.
In the past year alone, monumental failures by the DOD, CDC, FBI, and DHS make Conservative Americans want to reach for their shovels to drain the DC swamp.
The Great U.S. Culture War became an open Kultur Kampf in 1962. It took 60 years for one side, called “Commies” for short, to reach the top of institutions which define American Civilization by controlling our culture. It’ll take at least 40 years to pull the Commies down from the top and pull them up branch and root to win America back.
The easy answer on how to destroy the U.S. economy is to do what Biden and the Democrats are doing now. A longer answer is to flagrantly violate the laws of economics – even those taught at the most liberal universities. The most comprehensive way to destroy an economy is, simply, to act counter to commonsense and every historical precedent for all of recorded history.
My piece on “Good Hate” listed issues where the ideas of the Left lead to awful answers. Actually, their solutions make things worse. It’s good to hate these ideas. It’s even better to hate the origins and the outcomes of bad ideas. There’s good reasons for a better hate.
The two greatest Commandments for Christians are to love God with all your heart, mind, strength and soul and love your neighbor like you love yourself. The only verb is love. Love3. Also, the Holy Bible lists things that the Lord God hates. So, it can be good to hate the right things. In America, there’s much to hate about the Left.
The elections of 2022, 2023, and 2024 are as important as the stark choice of 2016 and shameful outcome of 2020. Americans have different levels of awareness for what each election is about. The ways to slice and dice the political divide is the what’s what in American politics. The many growing divisions are what’s going on.
Racism, today, is a hustle. It’s a scam for the Left and their lackeys. Now is the time to declare a Post-Racial Independence Day. Celebrate America’s freedom from racism. Finally.
My personal perspective on West Point, obviously, is mine alone. It’s aged over 50 years since graduation and informed by 65 years of reading history as well as over 2 decades working as an Army “Futurist.” I believe West Point should focus on creating the cadre of the “military priesthood” of the U.S. Army. I know such a shift would get mixed results, but 50 years from now Americans would know the Long Gray Line is about winning America’s wars above all else.
A month ago seven old men who spent 4 years together as company mates at West Point compared memories on why each went there, stayed, and what the place meant – personally. Each testimony was different. Here’s what I wrote 4 years ago and stands the same now. It’s purely a personal epistle.
50 years after graduation from West Point is a time for remembering. My memories of a Hellish summer aren’t a criticism of anything or anyone – lest sensitivities be triggered in comparison. It’s just one story of the past to tell and consider thoughtfully.
How my West Point Class of 1972 mattered to the Army is why I care about West Point today. That begs the question, “Why does West Point matter?” What matters today – for the Class of 2022?
The West Point Class of 1972 entered at the height of the Vietnam War. We went, expecting to fight in Vietnam, when our generation and America was split in two. The War ended when the author was in winter Ranger School.
More Americans died fighting one another in “The Recent Unpleasantness (1861-1865)” than all of our other wars put together. Every year honoring the Confederate half of that most terrible war has its unique highlights and nuances. This year the Army is culturally cleansing the names of its forts. So, the unspoken post-war compromise – where Southerners could honor their soldiers’ valor if they ignored the abuses of Federal aggression and stayed silent about Yankee war crimes – is over.
The movie “2000 Mules” provides law enforcement in five states the evidence to investigate felony voter fraud. The data is that compelling. The movie presentation is step-by-step, “show and tell” of how illegal vote harvesting happened. And how cheating won. The movie ends with a challenge to every American citizen.
One Front: Two Wars Revisited I wrote this a week after 9-11. In the 20 years since then, I’ve written over 1,000 pieces. This piece may still be the best because it was so spot on – even though the War against Islamist Totalitarian picked up the initial moniker of Global War on Terrorism instead of my …
Abortion and Mother’s Day don’t go well in a single sentence. It’s insulting, and revolting, to even see the word ‘abortion’ on Mother’s Day. Yet, many American women who are mothers and some who will never be, are feeling a lot of emotion about abortion. This Mother’s Day 2022 has something to celebrate about the legality and restrictions on abortion – it’s all probably going back to the states.
One man’s journey through the Wuhan China virus and our broken, politicized medical system.
