Unsolicited Memo for UK from a descendant of an ungrateful colonist who served in the 4th Virginia Regiment of the Continental Line to create these United States of America:
In World War 2, the UK stood alone for 13 long months. The UK, led by 70 year old Winston Churchill,
Clay and Buck dismissed DeSantis in Iowa. I turned off the radio. Their attitude was so condescending. Are they arrogant, ignorant, or are we DeSantis supporters clueless? I really don't know. Have to wait to Jan 15th to find out.
Since I retired from the Army and got active in politics, I've supported Conservatives from Alan Keyes to Ted Cruz. 2024 is the best opportunity since 1900 (my history nerd view) to vote for a Conservative candidate who will be even greater as POTUS than Coolidge, Eisenhower,
Just heard DeSantis speaking live. If Trump is the candidate, then the election is about him. If DeSantis is the candidate, the election is about Biden's failures. The Left desperately wants Trump to be the candidate. He'll lose the swing states. He'll lose. America too.
I am an evangelical voter in Virginia.
This year I will not be voting for any Republican candidate who does not disavow the watering down of the party platform on abortion.
That includes Donald Trump.
I refuse to reward betrayal with my vote.

I'm old enough to be Ron DeSantis's father. He is the first person from my children's generation who I would gladly follow as a leader like I would a few from my generation or those senior to me (who are no more now).
I'd offer unsolicited commentary and advice as I would to

Name the systems. Maybe can negotiate.
Let the "Indigenous" people who don't want the "systems", go to a place - call it a reservation maybe - and let them live exactly as their Neolithic ancestors did. They get nothing those "systems" brought or created since 1607.

My GG-Grandfather said that one reason why he thought he survived is this:
He was with 2 SC INF. He and two other guys got a Yankee tent (probably at 2nd Manassas) and cut it up into 3 pieces, sewed buttons on it, and put it together every night. Other guys slept in the
@lsferguson
Start smartening up? Voters in WI, NV, AZ, and PA had 3.5 years to tighten up their voting laws, rolls, and procedures. The Biden field offices are registering and vote harvesting their way to win. Already screwed unless undecideds and many Dems actually flip at the last
The condescension in Buck Sexton's voice that DeSantis might win in Iowa is palatable. He said it would be as big a shock as Trump beating HRH Hillary I in 2016.
Old Republican Platform: The GOP is against slavery. Anti-slavery. Against the expansion of slavery. For the elimination of slavery.
New Republican Platform: The GOP is against slavery. It's okay to have some slaves, but not too many.

Riot Control 101. Have enough cops to fully contain the area you want cleared. Allow one opening for obedient persons to get out. Tie in your flanks with buildings or permanent barriers. Don't let them flank you.
And much more.

Are the Danes filling their churches and proselytizing Christianity? You can’t beat a belief in something with nothing.
Are the Danes making babies?
Are the Danes cutting them off from their womb to tomb welfare?
Are the Danes stripping criminals of citizenship and
RNC Convention 2024: Day 4 Finale
I have pages of notes, but unlike Pres. Trump I’ll cut to the chase. But first, has he stopped talking yet?
It was the worst Presidential acceptance speech ever.
The rambling, repetitive, vainglorious, stream of consciousness sound bytes are
Once upon a time, Trump was ahead of DeSantis by 30 points, 50 points, or a magical Kim Jung Il 100 points, right? Now, victory for Trump is a 10 point win? Methinks the truth sits not with polls. Reality will reveal who will brave the snow and cold for a political candidate.

No. She can't keep her word. She's the tool of the Establishment Republicans who will not solve a single problem. "Yon Cassius has a lean and hungry look" - she's a career politician of the most malleable and weak sort.

My GG-Grandfather walked from Greensboro, NC to Greenville Co, SC. He was covered in lice. His wife hadn't seen him for a couple of years. Had him take off his uniform. She burned it. Cleaned him with lye soap and then let him in the house.
His kids didn't recognize him.
@ClayTravis
Temper tantrum? Lacking guts? Trump demonstrates his temper in his childish tirades. The only one lacking guts is the draft dodger Trump.
Is it true you were a lifelong Democrat until you got to fill in Rush's slot?
Read this:
Last Sunday I had high hopes and real calm about the Iowa Caucus. This Sunday I'm of exceedingly good cheer, still calm at heart, with no loss of hope for the nomination until the Convention, and filled with resolve. Furthermore, the quality of the character of my fellow

I know this is lost on you. Still needs to be written. Secession isn't treason.
Davis wanted to be tried for treason because he would have won in court.

In 1861 when your state seceded, your primary loyalty was to your state. The officers and enlisted who followed their state were following the intent of the 1787 Constitution - a voluntary union of sovereign states.
Vindman may be a shmuck. Lee wasn't.
Ron DeSantis dismantled DEI at Univ FL! How about community colleges and all other state schools? Governors of other free states should follow the Conservative Champion. FL counties and cities should do the same ASAP.
Do the political surgery to cut out cancerous Cultural
Today's 9.5 hour drive was one of my twice monthly VA-GA, GA-VA pilgrimages. Plenty of prayer and thought time. Resolved to stay with DeSantis and not cuss or spit until after the RNC Convention. I've been an activist for over 32 years in Virginia. A minnow, looking up at the
Heard DeSantis speak yesterday about how he couldn't move voters who felt loyalty to Trump or anger about lawfare against Trump. The very "Con" Conservative media stood in the way. They pump up Trump, ignore DeSantis, and hide how badly Trump will do in the general election.

See Voddie Baucham Jr's "Faultlines." Best shredding from a Biblical view.
BLM is Identity politics. Identity politics leads to tribalism. Tribalism leads to barbarism.
And BLM is Cultural Marxism. Marxism is awful for Blacks - as it is for everyone.

I thought that as soon as I heard it. I was in a car wreck as a teenager, not driving, and asked where are my glasses. They were on my face. I thought they were off after the impact. Maybe he did or when the Scrt Svc jumped on top of him they knocked them off.

I taught Research and Methodology for the Social Sciences at West Point 40 (ugh) years ago. Rational empiricism is good stuff. The normal curve is our friend. Multi-variate regression analysis is primo.
You’re doing great! Rock on!

Conservatives and pragmatic middle class Americans are a transformative, governing majority bigger than FDR's. Need the right champion. And get past the cheat in swing states. Fat Lady has not sung yet.
@FacksAreFacts
Move to a Free State that will stand up to the Feds if push comes to shove. No foreign country can protect your individual rights like Americans who are willing to fight for their rights will. FL, TX, TN, WV, AL..
Didn't watch SOTU last night. Glad I didn't. Biden and Trump at the top of the tickets - at least for today - is truly disgusting. Americans get what we vote for at every level of government.

The difference is Limbaugh said it was easier when the Commies are in power, but he worked to keep them from power. He was the voice of reason, not hysteria or cheerleading.
I understand why some Grandparents check out of politics and current affairs. It's tiresome. They've seen the folly before. Know they can't fix it. The generation in the prime of their life - middle age not youth - wants to be totally in charge. And, the grandchildren are so
