Leadership Is The Difference
Reagan, Obama and Trump all faced crisis. Leadership is the difference.
Defense
Department of War: The1947 Worst Rebrand in U.S. History (From Hero to Zero)
“Defense” sounds noble. It sounds like you’re protecting your kids. It sounds like you’re holding the line. It sounds like Mom, apple pie, and a golden retriever that would never bite anybody unless it absolutely had to.
What Trump wants from Greenland; And yes, their military includes dog sleds.
The USA has been defending Greenland longer than Denmark because on August 9, 1940, the Danes fought the Germans valiantly for 6 hours but threw in the towel because Denmark did not want to be annihilated.
Trump Goes After the Defense Industrial Complex
Our President who never seems to sleep, has come up with another “out of the box” idea. He wants our War Department to start getting its money’s worth from the defense industrial complex. What a novel idea.
Simo Häyhä: The White Death and His Mastery of Northern Warfare
Whether or not President Trump is able to acquire Greenland, there is the possibility of a conflict between China-Russia on one side, and the U.S. on the other, in order to control scarce resources. Today, Dave Cloft examines what that might look like from the eyes of a Winter Warfare Legend.
Maduro’s Illegitimacy, And Why the United States Was Right to Act
The Trump administration did what it needed to do, collecting the Venezuelan dictator in the early hours of a Saturday morn, and bringing him back to the United States, starting the process for a long-awaited regime change in Venezuela at last.
The Unclassified Atomic City Under the Ice in Greenland – Why We Already Own It…
In the 1950’s, long before Arctic warfare became trendy again now in 2026 —before the think tanks rediscovered parkas and PowerPoint slides—the United States quietly built an entire nuclear city under the ice in Greenland. Not a base. Not a bunker. A city. With hallways, living quarters, electricity, plumbing, a chapel, and—because this is America—a big nuclear reactor.
Renaming Greenland – Trumpland: The Arctic Now Belongs to the Hegemon
Let’s stop pretending this is a seminar where everyone raises their hand and waits to be called on. The United States is the global hegemon. That’s not bravado; it’s the rebuilt operating system. When America “consults,” it’s being polite. When America decides, the rest of the world updates its talking points.
30 Seconds Over DC
Once each year The State of the Union Address finds most of our military and elected leaders, including the president, all gathered together.
America’s Quiet War: How Political Posturing Keeps Killing Soldiers in a Place Most Americans Forgot Exists
Syria is not a declared war. There is no Syria-specific Authorization for Use of Military Force. There is no victory condition, no end state, no honest explanation that survives five follow-up questions.
Frozen Battlefields and Hard Men: The 10 Lessons of Arctic Warfare From Antiquity to 2025
Arctic warfare has always been the great equalizer. It humbles superpowers, burns through armies, and rewards only the few who understand that in the North, the environment is the real four-star general.
The Death of the Army Iron Major: Pentagons’s got a new Synthetic Brain
The Iron Major was never meant to be cool. He wasn’t a door kicker, a tank commander, or a helicopter pilot. He was something more tragic—a Jedi Knight of staffing, a warrior-monk assigned to pour black coffee into his bloodstream and rearrange briefing charts until the colonel approved the shade of blue.
Someone Has to Keep the Wolves at Bay. For Now, It’s Still Us.
Scripture teaches something modern diplomacy avoids: nations are not equal in strength, discipline, or character. Some restrain evil; others unleash it.
The Mindless War of Shame and Lies
The ongoing coup conspiracy against President Trump has just taken an even darker turn: Five former military and one former CIA analyst Democrat Members of Congress just engaged in a seditious conspiracy against the United States, the duly elected President, and all active-duty members of our armed forces.
Seditious Overreach
On 18 November 2025, six Democratic Party members of the Congress, some of whom have military backgrounds, released a video specifically directed to active duty military personnel, encouraging them to resist unlawful orders.
Reality Prism – Revelations
It was late September, an early fall in Montana in 2013. I received a call to inquire if I would co-chair a non-governmental organization (NGO) delegation to Cairo, Egypt. The purpose was to meet the head of the Egyptian Armed Forces and other groups involved with the protests and removal of the Muslim Brotherhood
Twenty-Five Years After 9/11: The Day America Lost Its Nerve—and Its Freedom
Next year marks twenty-five years since that blue-sky morning when the towers fell, the Pentagon burned, and the nation swore we’d never forget. We promised unity, courage, and vigilance. We sang “God Bless America” on the Capitol steps. And then, almost overnight, we traded freedom for fear and called it patriotism.
America; Feed the Poor
The Democrat shut down of the Federal Government holds back federal funds to help feed one in eight Americans. Almost 42m Americans get food assistance? No. 42m PERSONS living in America get food assistance.
The Historical Precedents For “Kinetic Strikes.”
Use of force without direct Congressional authorization is often problematic. But that doesn’t make it illegal or unconstitutional.
Death by Regulation: How the DoD Lost Its Outdoor Soul
Once upon a time, every Army post had a Rod & Gun Club. Soldiers swapped stories over clays and venison stew, learned real firearm safety, and taught their kids what stewardship and discipline looked like. The firing line wasn’t political; it was practical. It built better Soldiers, shooters, better conservationists, and frankly, better Americans.
