PFC JERRY MCNELLY, 1st Air Cavalry, Vietnam, 1967-1968

An overdue story from one of my Brothers in service… ~ Editor

I was 17 years old when I got to Vietnam-1966 through 1969 (My mom had to sign a waiver for me), I grew up fast and learned a lot, good and bad. (I am now 73 and still learning). I was stationed on the USS Providence and also stationed in Country at a place called “Monkey Mountain” close to DaNang,. I spent 3 tours of duty in and around Vietnam. 3 of my high school friends were killed in Vietnam, I was spared. I participated in the TET Offensive in Feb 1968, that was bad. Somewhere along the way I was exposed to Agent Orange (Nasty Stuff) I am now on disability for the effects of agent orange. When I was discharged and came home to the States we arrived in San Francisco, and there were a lot of protesters spitting on us and throwing rocks and eggs and called us baby killers. That was our welcome home. I tell you this to say to you, that whatever your position is or was on the Vietnam war, it was not the veteran who got us into the war, most of us went because we were patriots and loved our country. Blame the politicians, yes, but not the veteran. To all Vietnam Vets out there, you are not forgotten. As a previous combat Vet myself, I salute you my friend. ~ Denny T.

Advent Health Doctor Says “Get Your Booster” Because Another COVID Variant Is Coming

Apparently, doctors haven’t gotten the memo that the thinking portion of the public has already figured out these shots and boosters don’t prevent any kind of illness. AdventHealth’s Dr. Teresa Herbert said this version of omicron is more contagious but causes less severe illness, and that people should still be subjecting themselves to the disastrous mRNA booster.

According to WLOS ABC News 13, an ABC affiliate out of North Carolina, the new variant dubbed “Arcturus” is spreading in India and has been detected in other countries. Dr. Herbert said to make sure you’ve gotten your latest round of experimental gene therapy injections, or a “COVID booster shot” just in case this overtly mild cold happens to make its way to you.

THIS Ain’t Normal folks, but It’s Happening NOW!

I never believed that this was possible and would roll my eyes when friends would tell me about this. But then, I’ve noticed how in the past couple of years, not only are these chemtrails more visible and frequent, but people in my area (myself included) have been getting sicker! I’m talking about people who live and eat cleanly and are outdoors a lot- I live in a very rural area of Virginia, not too far from DC. Many of us have been having weird symptoms, like muscle/joint pains, fatigue, and lingering coughs that no doctor can provide a diagnosis for. Not coincidentally, we live in a mostly agricultural area so, whatever they are spraying, it’s going on agricultural products. The question is: how do we protect ourselves from this! ~ Ge Markus

Leibowitz: Arizona is a great place to LIVE — and DIE

In a few days, I’ll mark 28 years since I packed up a 20-foot Ryder truck, inked a route that spanned 2,300 miles from New Jersey to Mesa, and began the three-day drive west. To say I’ve never looked back isn’t quite true. I sometimes wonder why I didn’t flee “back East” sooner.

Arizona has captured my heart. But let’s be real. The state isn’t perfect. Continue reading

A State of Never-Ending Crisis: The Government Is Fomenting Mass Hysteria

“This country has been having a nationwide nervous breakdown since 9/11. A nation of people suddenly broke, the market economy goes to shit, and they’re threatened on every side by an unknown, sinister enemy. But I don’t think fear is a very effective way of dealing with things – of responding to reality. Fear is just another word for ignorance.” ~ Hunter S. Thompson, gonzo journalist

We have become guinea pigs in a ruthlessly calculated, carefully orchestrated, chillingly cold-blooded experiment in how to control a population and advance a political agenda without much opposition from the citizenry.

This is mind-control in its most sinister form.

With alarming regularity, the nation is being subjected to a spate of violence that terrorizes the public, destabilizes the country, and gives the government greater justifications to crack down, lock down, and institute even more authoritarian policies for the so-called sake of national security without many objections from the citizenry.

Take this latest shooting in Nashville, Tenn. … Continue reading

Oh No, ANOTHER Iceberg?

Something Brother David mentioned in his response to my last piece tickled “my little grey cells‘.”

I was mulling over several possible titles that adequately express my view in this essay. I remembered something in a previous commentary. I used Plato’s coined phrase “Ship of State;” from his book Republic.

I believe my reference was our Sinking Ship of State. Continue reading

These 5 states will be the first to kick residents off Medicaid starting in April

Millions of Americans are at risk of losing their Medicaid coverage in coming months, but residents in Arizona, Arkansas, Idaho, New Hampshire and South Dakota will be the first to bear the brunt of the terminations.

States have been barred by Congress from winnowing their Medicaid rolls since the Covid-19 pandemic began. That prohibition ends on Saturday, and some states are moving much more swiftly than others to kick off those deemed ineligible for the public health insurance program for low-income Americans. Continue reading

America’s New Norm: Transgendered Inspired Terrorist Attacks

“The ‘Trans Day of Vengeance‘ protest scheduled for Washington, D.C., for Saturday has been canceled by organizers, who cited a ‘threat to life and safety.’

Our Rights DC, the co-organizer of the event, issued a Twitter thread announcing the cancellation. The event was to take place at the U.S. Supreme Court.

‘This action will not be taking place Saturday due to a credible threat to life and safety,” the organization tweeted. “The safety of our trans community is first priority. This threat is the direct result of the flood of raw hatred directed toward the trans community after the Tennessee shooting.'”

I guess their little queer asses are quivering in their crocks. This smacks of more sensationalism aimed at painting conservative Christians as the real threat and just another political ploy to gain sympathy and momentum for their movement, once again playing the victim despite Three Little Beautiful Children Laying Cold in the Grave. ~ J.O.S.

TRANSITIONING INTO VIOLENCE

Another school shooting has occurred and this time it was carried out by a ‘trans’ person.

Apparently this person had a lot of anger about how trans people have been treated including many using her ‘dead’ name. The anger may have combined with hormone treatments, which might have led to mental illness. After all, what sane person can execute children? Continue reading

Biden’s Growing Border Crisis: Death, Drugs, and Disorder on the Northern Border

Washington, D.C. (March 28, 2023) – Lost amidst the chaos at the Southwest border is a burgeoning surge of migrants at the Northern border—the international boundary between the United States and Canada. While the number of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Northern border encounters is low compared to the Southwest border, what is happening at the Northern border is still troubling — particularly in the Border Patrol’s Swanton (Vt.) Sector. Continue reading

It’s Not a Lie if YOU Believe It

“The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth.”George Orwell, 1984

I wish I could go through a day without having to reference Orwell and Huxley when observing how the ruling class is able to manipulate, subjugate, and propagandize the willfully ignorant masses through lies, deceptions, disinformation, and fear. But here we are, living through a dystopian nightmare blending the worst aspects of Orwell’s 1984 and Huxley’s Brave New World.

It’s as if O’Brien and Mustapha Mond are running the show, using behavioral conditioning, restricting freedom of speech, adhering to a strict caste system, surveilling everything we say or do, using our fears to control us, utilizing propaganda to produce false narratives, and ultimately threatening to stomp a boot on our faces forever if we do not obey and conform. Virtually everything we are told by politicians, government bureaucrats, military brass, “esteemed” journalists, medical “experts”, bankers, and corporate executives is lies. They do not believe their lies, but they know it benefits themselves financially to lie, and as long as they work together, they know the ignorant masses will believe them. Continue reading

To Help New Students Adapt, Some Colleges Are Eliminating Grades

Joy Malak floundered through her freshman year in college.

I had to learn how to balance my finances. I had to learn how to balance work and school and the relationship I’m in.” The hardest part about being a new college student, Malak said, “is not the coursework. It’s learning how to be an adult.”

That took a toll on her grades. “I didn’t do well,” said Malak, who powered through and is now in her sophomore year as a neuroscience and literature double major at the University of California, Santa Cruz, or UCSC. “It took a while for me to detangle my sense of self-worth from the grades that I was getting. It made me consider switching out of my major a handful of times.” Continue reading

Smith: Take a Hard Stand for Faith, Family and America

“You can’t go back and change the beginning but you can start where you are and change the ending.” ~ C.S. Lewis

Of late, and I’m certain You’ve noted, I can’t shake the feeling that a civil war will be the only way we save the country right now. Many will disagree for a litany of great reasons, but without it, they can be certain that they will live to see real tyranny place its cold grip over the heart of America and lead it into its final death spiral.

That could be the result anyway, if those who love traditional America fight and lose. And it is hard not to question the commitment of those who profess to love America with so little action showing the proof of it. Continue reading

DeWeese: Living With Equity in a Free Society

Social Equity has become the root for almost every policy coming from government, school curriculum, human resources on the job, and even in our entertainment. It’s a revolution intended to change our entire social structure to affect how we all interact with each other.

To understand the full impact “equity” will have on our daily lives, let’s look at its intended definition, as prepared by its promoters. United Way of the National Capital Area (a long-time charity) defines Equity as “The quality of being fair and impartial. Social equity is impartiality, fairness and justice for all people in social policy. Social equity takes into account systemic inequalities to ensure everyone in a community has access to the same opportunities and outcomes. Equity of all kinds acknowledges that inequalities exist and works to eliminate them…Social equity recognizes that each person has different circumstances and allocates the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome.”

Well, if our American society intends to reach the goals of true social equity, we have a lot of changes in our everyday lives that must be made! Let’s get down to it. Continue reading

House approves Parents’ Bill of Rights to give Americans more say in their kids’ education

The Republican-led House voted to pass its Parents’ Bill of Rights on Friday with zero Democrat votes after Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called it ‘fascist.’ The controversial bill, which gives parents a stronger role in what’s taught in public schools, is not expected to be taken up by the Democratic-majority Senate.

Critics denounce the legislation saying it has led to book bans, restrictions aimed at transgender students and unhinged board meetings nationwide. Continue reading

Parents Majoring In The Minors

Get your children OUT of the System – NOW

Articles about the horrible quality (on purpose) of what passes for education in public schools have become so prevalent that people now tend to take this inferior education for granted and so are tempted to just ignore it.

We recently were informed that some schools are now ending their honors programs so they can promote “equity” (racism). It seems that lots of the white kids do well in the honors programs so that now must cease and we must begin to enforce a stultifying conformity, a “one size fits all” program they have mislabeled as “equity,” The concept of “equity” has trumped any idea of real education – but, then, real education has not existed in public schools for generations anyway.

Boz: Schmegegge!

[shmih-GEH-gee]

The title of this essay is a word I’ve used in past commentaries. Schmegegge is a Yiddish word for baloney, hot air, nonsense, and by extension, bullshit.

Other cultures fascinate me. I’ve lived, traveled, conversed, listened, and absorbed a lot of erudition in my LXXII years on this rock. I embrace this increased awareness because I never know when this knowledge will be helpful.

America is a melting pot of people and languages. We’re an amalgamation of everyone that merges with – not storms – our community. Much of our language originated from other countries, as do some of our customs – like Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day, and Cinco de Mayo.

Sadly, we’ve lost our sense of community and regressed into tribal monikers and identifiers that challenge and expunge that unity. As if that’s not bad enough, we partitioned along partisan political paradigms. Continue reading

Buckle Up, Buttercup… The Cult of Personality

My Brother-in-law David recently commented that I’m too hard on American citizens for not caring for our country. I respect and value his opinion. He’s right on the money. I am hard on the people trusted with our republic – you and me. His insightful comment inspired this essay.

The great riddle of a seven-headed figure

No one likes to be told they’re wrong or at fault. I realize it’s generational; it’s how we’re socialized – educated – indoctrinated. That’s part of the problem; we like it easy and comforting. Criticism and reprobation are foreign concepts and quite disquieting to most American citizens. We’ve come to expect our government to do it for us, but sometimes we need a good slap in the face to awaken from complacency. The current situation shows that mind reading is not Big Brother’s strong suit, and in the absence of well-stated requirements, he will give us what he wants.

I attribute our present situation to American citizens’ inaction and lack of involvement. I also criticize the educational system – another responsibility we relinquish to Big Brother. Continue reading
