Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
You didn’t need a history degree to recognize what was happening during the pandemic—you just needed to pay attention to how quickly ordinary people changed under pressure. Not all at once, not everywhere, but enough to notice a pattern. Stress, fear, and anxiety didn’t just shape policy; they reshaped behavior. And in many cases, they …
The year was 1875, and long before ESPN, endorsement deals, or even organized leagues as we know them, one of the most electric sporting events on earth unfolded on a windswept stretch of Irish coastline at Dollymount, just outside Dublin. This was the Great International Rifle Match—a transatlantic clash that, for a brief window in history, made precision rifle shooting a premier spectator sport.
The Islamic Republic of Iran launched a religious war against us almost fifty years ago (1979), and we still don’t believe it. Before his overthrow, the Shah of oil-rich Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, was implementing modernization, Western ideals, and industrialization policies. A revolution occurred because the strict Islamists called the Shah’s government too restrictive, like Democrats are doing here today, causing the Shah’s government to quickly fall into the hands of the strict Islamic ideologues. It is regretted today!
The Democrat Party is no longer a legitimate political party, and it hasn’t been since at least Obama.
Since after the Civil War, or more accurately, the War Between the States, the Democrat Party has slowly evolved into a treasonous opposition. Their ‘dreams’ for the nation had departed from what the founders had in mind.
The roots go back to the late 19th century, when American labor was less “9 to 5” and more “sunup to collapse.” The rallying cry was simple: eight hours for work, eight for rest, eight for life. In 1886, that demand erupted into nationwide strikes, culminating in the infamous Haymarket Affair in Chicago. A bomb, gunfire, dead police, dead civilians, and a trial that still sparks debate today. It was messy, chaotic, and deeply human—exactly the kind of event that leaves a permanent scar on history.
The New York Giants upset the Dallas Cowboys in an NFL game in 2007. The next day, someone took a clip from the German movie Der Untergang—in English, Downfall—and used it to create a mockery that is an Internet legend that has been copied to cover many a similar, if inconsequential, devastating loss.
I thought I had seen the last of traitorous Americans cursing our soldiers or calling for them to be killed when the last American combat troops were pulled out of Vietnam following the 1973 Paris Peace Treaty. After the disgusting display by anti-American, pro-Iran thugs in Philadelphia and the perfidious “No Kings” protestors last weekend, it appears I was wrong.
In the early 19th century, Britain had a problem. China produced what the world wanted—tea, silk, porcelain—and demanded payment in silver. The British Empire was bleeding hard currency. Rather than accept the imbalance, Britain engineered a solution: opium. Grown in British India and smuggled into China, the drug created dependency at scale. Millions became addicted. Silver began flowing back out of China.
There is hope for women’s sports—at last. The IOC just announced a new policy that excludes transgender men (biological males) from the female category at the Olympic Games.
Tom Wilson’s work may be the only credible, clinical, scientific, nothing but the facts evidence of what went down that day in Dealy Plaza. His effort touches nearly every aspect of and undoes many of the faux facts that others rely upon to construct the lone gunman BS. His journey of discovery through the assassination photonic evidence is remarkable. Perhaps more astounding is how conclusive such evidence can be in the right hands.
Consider the Warren Commission being advised by former CIA Director Allen Dulles, with then current CIA Director John McCone at the ready if needed. Two leading figures of the time, prominent government civilian servants at the helm of our government: and yet nobody knew about the Zapruder Film analysis at NPIC for decades.
So, here we were in America, playing a game invented by Americans that was once considered the “Great American Pastime,” and the American team was essentially the visiting team. In Miami. In America.
The elephant in the room was obvious: somebody-in theory the SS-went to a lot of trouble and intrigue to redo the work that Brugioni did early that Sunday morning 24 November 1963. Using different people and a different film to build a different product without apparently notifying any of the NPIC senior staff except the Military Deputy.
Debunking the veracity of the Zapruder Film can be viewed as the starting point confirmation that it happened-that there was a government cover-up-which likely points to the CIA-if true. But even if true it is not necessarily the be all, end all, final answer to the questions surrounding the JFK Assassination: unless you are willing to settle for the culpability of the lead agency in the cover up.
Kosovo in 1999 we ended up creating what we called the Joint Visitors Bureau (JVB). I was a 1LT serving as aide-de-camp to the commander, and one of the first things you learn in that job is that warfighting sometimes takes a back seat to something far more dangerous: VIP visits.
Recently, I heard the news that Iran may try to destroy California with its Shahed drones. I had to laugh at that. Aren’t the Iranians aware that Supreme Leader Gavin Newsom and his gang of socialist Democrats have already done that?
Since the dawn of recorded time, cultures from every corner of the earth have told tales of serpents, dragons, and lizard-like beings. They coil around our myths, slither through our sacred texts, and hiss in our collective memory. But why does the serpent show up so often—and so ominously?
Author’s Note: (In June 2020, I posted the following column about Hong Kong. The reason for the post was that on May 22 of that year, China’s government in Beijing announced that it would allow mainland state security agencies to operate officially in Hong Kong, effectively allowing Beijing to impose national security laws on Hong …
The other day, I watched Democrat Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries blathering on about recently fired Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noam. Jeffries was ecstatic. In fact, he seemed to be salivating as he tore into Noem’s damaged political carcass.
When Americans think about Iran, the story usually begins in 1979—angry crowds, burning flags, and a stern cleric named Ayatollah Khomeini taking control of the country. But that snapshot hides something important. Iran—historically Persia—is one of the world’s oldest civilizations. Its history stretches back thousands of years, and the country that emerged after 1979 is not the inevitable outcome of Persian history. In many ways, it was a political accident born from revolution, miscalculation, and a brutal consolidation of power.
