Leave Not One Standing
Despite calls for a cease-fire, Israel needs to attack, attack, attack until not a single Hezbollah and Hamas member and supporter is left standing. This racist violence in the Middle East must end.
John Surdu
Manners and etiquette are a sign of respect. They show respect for both us and for others around us. Sadly, as a society, we have lost respect for one another.
Shut Down West Point, Please
By John R. “Buck” Surdu While this is a bit of hyperbole, we need to shut down West Point while the few American people who have the remotest interest or acquaintance with the military can still remember its glory and before they realize its shameful state. As a graduate of West Point who found it …
President Newsome
By John R. “Buck” Surdu I have frequently said that the Republicans are slightly less heinous than the Democrats. Since retaking the House, the Repugnant Republicans have done little to bring the country back from the brink of civil war and fascist-dominated DC. Sure, the YouTube videos of Ted Cruz, John Kennedy, and some of …
Food
by John R. “Buck” Surdu I saw this picture recently on the Internet, and it got me thinking. A lot of fascism has been foisted on citizens with the collusion of we the sheeple over the years. Often this fascism comes under the guise of promoting the “general welfare,” but it always comes with …
Racial Quotas in the Military
By John R. “Buck” Surdu Recently the Website American Greatness reported that “Biden Administration Opposes Merit-Based Military Promotions in Favor of Race Quotas.” This came on the heels of the recent Supreme Court rulings that reversed so-called “affirmative action” in college admissions. More on the orders here. Unfortunately, that ruling didn’t go far enough because …
Good News! Disney is Not Opening a New Campus in Florida.
By John R. “Buck” Surdu Recently Woke Disney Corporate announced that they had canceled their plan to move 1000 positions from Kalifornia to the Lake Nona area outside Orlando in Florida. Because of the weasel wording by Bob Iger, the America-hating and Florida-hating media jumped on this announcement to further push their anti-Florida and anti-DeSantis …
Eliminate Benefits for Congress
By John R. “Buck” Surdu Statista asserts that 78% of the American people disapprove of Congress as of April 2023. Indeed, in recent years, disapproval ratings of all federal institutions have skyrocketed. The approval rating of the person occupying the oval office is less than 30%, prompting one to think about the incredible level of …
The Law is Our Last Bulwark against Tyranny?
By Dan Davis and John R. “Buck” Surdu We all have witnessed the aggressive, “creative,” and putatively unethical behavior of a few of our prosecutors. At the same time, they have facilitated significant rises in violent crimes by creating novel excuses for releasing the most violent among us, all the while they were focused on …
The Federal Government Has Become Organized Crime
By John R. “Buck” Surdu To many conservatives, deplorables, and patriots, the Federal government has become an organized crime junta, growing its reach and power like any cartel, stealing from the people they are supposed to be serving, and openly engaging in graft and corruption. There was a time when graft and corruption were hidden, …
Is a Parental Bill of Rights a Good Idea?
by John R. “Buck” Surdu Recently House Republicans passed the “Parental Bill of Rights” bill by a narrow 213-208 vote. The Hill reported, The measure would require schools to publish their curricula publicly, mandate that parents be allowed to meet with their children’s teachers and make schools give information to parents when violence occurs on school grounds. It …
Citizen = Serf
By John R. “Buck” Surdu I have thought for a while that “citizen” has become synonymous with “serf” or “slave.” Citizens do the producing and paying, yet the ruling class vilifies them. They support the indolent through the forcible extraction of tax dollars while watching sheepishly as the fascists erode our freedoms. Our ruling class has …
The Academy Loses Its Way – Again
By John R. “Buck” Surdu This week ESPN reported that Army football player Andre Carter II was poised to be the first Army football player to be drafted in the NFL higher the seventh round in over fifty years. This sparked debate on some of the social media sites for Academy graduates. “In December, Congress passed …
Where is the “Powell Doctrine” When We Need It?
We have spent $113B in Ukraine and shipped them weapons and munitions we will likely need in a war with China that many general officers predict by 2025. If we had America-loving leaders instead of America-hating fascists running the country, we might have a more rational and explicable approach to Ukraine. Instead, we have typical …
Will Ron DeSantis Run for President?
There has been a lot of speculation about whether Ron DeSantis, the current Governor of Florida, who won reelection by a landslide, will run for President. I think that he would be an excellent President in the same way he has been an excellent governor. I hope he does not run. I would rather he …
Incompetence or Treason?
By John R. “Buck” Surdu I have often said that as a company commander I kicked people out of the Army who are better people and better citizens than more than half the people I meet every day in civilian life. I have seen commanders relieved for cause for a variety of purposes. Yet stories …
Bed Bath and Beyond Goes Bust
John R. “Buck” Surdu Bed Bath and Beyond is contracting and closing stores. Their creditors stopped their line of credit. We never bought a lot from Bed Bath and Beyond, but we shopped there. Much of what is in our kitchen came from there. I don’t know if they have mismanaged their affairs, if they …
Rant about Reparations
By John R. “Buck” Surdu San Francisco’s African American Reparations Committee recently recommended that the city give every black San Francisco resident $5M in reparations “not for slavery, since California was not technically a slave state, but “to address the public policies explicitly created to subjugate Black people in San Francisco by upholding and expanding the intent …
The National Debt Ceiling
Richard Feynman famously said, “Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts.” The monetary policies of those “experts” have driven up the national debt to astronomical levels buying votes from stupid and gullible voters. Any person with three brain cells to rub together knows that if your income is $X then you spend something …
Handling of Classified Documents
The DOJ’s delicate approach to Biden’s mishandling of classified documents demonstrates we all know that equal protection under the law has become a farce.
