The Left’s War on Patriotism Reaches America’s 250th Celebration
Those of us who have been around a while remember what American life was like fifty years ago. - John F. Di LeoIt was 1976, a presidential election year, and almost everything was partisan.
But not everything:
- In 1976, the country was wrapped up in Bicentennial fever: Red, white and blue were everywhere, in advertisements and clothing and bicycles and decorations...
Do we see the presence of our nation’s semiquincentennial anywhere in the popular culture today?
- If anything, the nation is less patriotic than ever, because the Democratic party – and the modern Left in general – have decreed that the very concept of patriotism is verboten, so they will not participate in much of a patriotic bent anymore.
That leaves just half the country to pick up the slack...
The Transatlantic Crucible: Why the Crisis Between Washington and Europe May Be a Blessing in Disguise
Eighteen months into his second U.S. presidential term, it may appear that Donald Trump has permanently altered his country’s relationships with its transatlantic allies... - David V. Gioe
Yet as bleak as the present state of the transatlantic alliance might look, it is also forcing a long-overdue transformation that could ultimately leave the alliance more capable and more balanced than it was before...
- For beneath the mayhem and discord lies a counterintuitive possibility: the very crisis Trump created is forcing U.S. allies to develop military and intelligence capabilities that could eventually make Washington’s partnerships stronger than ever.
- The truth is that for decades, the transatlantic relationship had a real free-rider problem.
Most European officials will concede that Trump’s second-term behavior—along with the rising threat from Russian revanchism—has finally convinced them to try to stand on their own feet in military and intelligence matters...

Joe Biden mental fitness questions return after new interview | Blaze Media:
Despite plenty of video footage showing former President Joe Biden stumbling through basic sentences and forgetting where those sentences were going, Jill Biden is once again dismissing concerns about his cognitive fitness.
In a recent interview on CBS with Rita Braver, Jill claimed more than once that Biden was “fine” when asked about his frequent gaffes.
“But what if that had happened during a meeting with foreign leaders or something like that?” Braver asked the first lady.
Read all!-----The E. Jean Carroll case rested on a sequence of legal maneuvers with no precedent in American civil litigation.
Democratic legislators passed a retroactive temporary law eliminating the statute of limitations for decades-old accusations that could not be dated, located, or defended with alibis. - Bill Brindley
- A Democratic mega-donor secretly funded the plaintiff’s legal costs through a nonprofit.
- The arrangement stayed hidden until one of Trump’s lawyers discovered it...
- The jury explicitly checked “no” on the verdict form’s specific rape question.
- The judge ruled rape proven anyway, claiming the jury had used a common rather than statutory definition… an impossibility, since their rejection under the common definition precludes rape by any standard...

QotD: Rhodesia and the suicide of the West
The history of the twentieth century is a graveyard of nations, but few corpses refuse to stay buried quite like Rhodesia. - QotD
- The story of Rhodesia is not only a regional tragedy, it is a civilisational warning.
It is the story of a state that was functional, prosperous, and militarily superior, yet was dismantled not by its enemies in the bush, but by the “kith and kin” of its own civilisational bloc.
- It serves as a controlled experiment in the “Suicide of the West”, illustrating what happens when a civilisation loses the will to defend its own outposts
- and succumbs to a “politics of cultural despair“...

'Nothing to see here': U.S. senator warns school-board president is 'calling for the murder' of Trump * WorldNetDaily * by Joe Kovacs:
It's another case of the cryptic "8647."
And a U.S. senator says it's coming from the president of a school board who is "calling for the murder" of President Donald Trump.
Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., shared an X post by Judy Moticka, president of the school board in Kirkwood, Missouri, who used the numeric term that some feel is a call to assassination.
