Good morning kids. Hope you all had an enjoyable start to the long three-day weekend holiday, but today is Memorial Day, so please take a moment to think about and say a prayer for those who gave their lives in service. I know I will, as I remember my uncle for whom I am named.

The following video is just as appropriate for Veterans Day, yet the emotion that Eugene Sledge feels for his fallen friends and no doubt the incredible guilt he had for making it home alive when so many others did not, is indeed a fitting tribute for all who made the ultimate sacrifice. God bless their memory.

For those who do not know, Sledge's book With the Old Breed at Pelelieu and Okinawa is considered the greatest first person account of frontline combat ever written, and it was the basis for the series "The Pacific."

Unfortunately, today marks the fifth anniversary that a low-life career criminal, whose wasted life was brought to an end when he resisted arrest for passing counterfeit money and beaus rather than risk being returned to prison for a very long stretch decided it was a good idea to ingest his stash of narcotics. Meanwhile, the police officer, Derek Chauvin was railroaded on a murder charge and so the Left had yet another "martyr" to mythological white supremacist police brutality with which they could continue their goal of societal destruction in the cause of seizing absolute power and turning our society and nation inside out.

The anniversary of Floyd’s overdose death on May 25th, 2020 led to an outpouring of political
commemorations of his death and musings about the need for yet more ‘racial justice’, none of which accounted for the 2,000 more black people killed in 2020 than in 2019.

The Floyd reckoning killed more black people than Hurricane Katrina did. The real legacy of the BLM race riots were 2,000 dead black people. The real legacy of the fists and kneelings were entire cemeteries filled with dead black bodies over the course of only one single year.

And coffins being placed in cemeteries across the country, planted there by the ‘reckoning’.

More Americans died in the BLM wars than were killed in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars combined. Or at Pearl Harbor. To find a conflict that was more lethal to Americans, you would have to go back to Vietnam. Far more were killed by the BLM crime wave than perished in Hurricane Katrina, not to mention Sandy, Harvey, Maria, Ike and the California wildfires.

George Floyd’s death was the single deadliest non-drug or disease event of any war or natural disaster in the United States in the last 40 years.

I am glad my poor uncle and all the other men and women who were killed in service are not around to see exactly what they died for. Horrible as this is, let's hope and pray that that cultural/political tide is turning and that America will return to a saner age, for the sake of those who gave their lives for it and certainly for the sake of future generations.

With all that said, I maintain that the greatest threat we face is from the aforementioned Democrat Left that have spent the better part of the past 200 years to tear us apart, regardless of the cost in blood, treasure and the waste of human potential their venality, and lust for power their words and deeds have cost.
The gunning down in cold blood of two Israelis last week in front to the Israeli embassy was carried out by an avowed communist, cheered on by those who cheered on and participated in the incineration of several dozen urban areas five years ago among other acts of domestic terrorisim in the ensuing years and years before that by their mentors and antecedents.

Monsters like Elias Rodriguez don’t suddenly emerge from under a rock. Their anti-American and anti-Israel hatreds are honed over time by a revolutionary ecosystem composed of different organisms. Years before he shot in cold blood a couple that worked at the Israeli Embassy in the prime of their lives, Rodriguez was taught to loathe the West.

Given the parlous state to which we have mindlessly allowed our universities to descend, Rodriguez may have imbibed some of this anti-Western dogma at the University of Illinois, Chicago, from which he graduated with an English degree in 2018.

But we know for sure that concurrently with his “education,” Rodriguez was associated with two leading institutions of the revolutionary ecosystem, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, and one of its front groups, the ANSWER Coalition, an acronym for Act Now to Stop War and End Racism.

He attended several marches coordinated by both groups in 2018, and was identified as a member of the PSL. Now that Rodriguez has been caught committing a heinous crime, however, both groups are distancing themselves from him.

Black Lives Matter Chicago also admitted that Rodriguez was a supporter and took part in several marches. BLM Chicago was one of the groups that cruelly posted pictures of paragliders with Palestinian flags after the terrorist group Hamas massacred over 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023, the New York Post reported at the time. Rodriguez shouted “Free Palestine,” moments before his arrest. . .

. . .“The People’s Forum, IPA, and ANSWER Coalition serve as the conduit through which CCP-affiliated entities have effectively co-opted pro-Palestinian activism in the U.S., advancing a broader anti-American, anti-democratic, and anti-capitalist agenda,” said NCRI.

Moreover, NCRI added that these three far-left groups “are part of a network linked by close financial, interpersonal, and ideological ties to Neville Roy Singham and his wife Jodie Evans, a power couple within the global far-left movement with close ties to the CCP”

Evans is the co-founder of CodePink, a group that organizes street mayhem. Evans announced on X two days after Rodriguez’s murderous rampage that she was “fasting for Gaza.”

Singham, a multi-millionaire, lives in Shanghai, China, “where he shares premises with Shanghai Maku Cultural Communications Ltd., a Chinese propaganda firm focused on presenting a positive image of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) to the global south.”

According to a 2023 report by the New York Times, one of the rare instances when the legacy media has reported on this network, Singham’s “ties to the propaganda machine date back at least to 2019, when, corporate documents show, he started a consulting business with Chinese partners. Those partners are active in the propaganda apparatus.”

China and the old Soviet Union have funded and backed subversive groups for decades. OF course groups like the Black Panthers, Earth Liberation Front, the Weathermen, La Raza, Mecha and others have substantial backing from monies raised right here at home. I was hoping Kash Patel and Pam Bondi would make the dismantling of the domestic threats to our country a top priority. It's a fair assumption that if you follow the money much of it leads right back to the Democrat Party as well as to sources within our government itself which no doubt DOGE, if given the chance will reveal in all its ugly detail,

And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
