I’ve seen a number of movies depicting D-day, June 6, 1944, the invasion of Normandy, but the producers of the latest film, “Pressure,” is quite different in that it captured the tense 72 hours before the landing was given a “go.”
The Allied forces – the United States Great Britain and Canada – sought to gain a foothold in France, launching the largest amphibious invasion in history, Operation Overlord, and its success relied heavily on the weather.… read more

While Americans are feeling the pinch pumping gas at the pump, President Trump insists that the prices will fall once that “great deal” is negotiated with Iran. He has asked Americans to understand that it’s a small price to pay for national security. They understand that but it it’s difficult to think about stopping the ‘hate America’ crowd on the other side of the world when you’re holding a gas receipt of $75 or $80 in your hand.… read more

While most voters are naturally concerned with the price of gas at the pump, those who are politically minded worry about how it might affect GOP support in the midterms.
During a recent gaggle with reporters, President Trump repeatedly insisted that gas prices will come down after the negotiations with Iran.… read more

Like Kamala Harris, the Biden’s are in the news again, but not to help the Democrat Party when it needs it.
Former first lady Jill Biden made headlines when she made a stunning admission of what many debate viewers I’m sure considered – that her husband was “having a stoke.”… read more

While former First Lady Michelle Obama appears on podcasts making odd remarks about the former president and their marriage, and Joe Biden has been absent, Barack Obama “is one of the best surrogates” the party has at the moment, according to Democrat strategist Andrea Riccio.
He made campaign appearances for the gubernatorial winners in New Jersey and Virginia and recently he was in Texas spinning for gubernatorial candidate Gina Hinojosa and senate candidate James Talarico.… read more

Kamala Harris and Alexandra Ocasia-Cortez are two Democrat women getting a bit of attention but it’s too early to tell where either one will wind up as campaign season rolls around.
It’s hard to imagine Harris becoming the party’s presidential choice after her overwhelming 2024 loss to Donald Trump. While AOC gets an occasional mention as a presidential candidate, a run in the Senate challenging Chuck Schumer in New York is more plausible.… read more

Did you notice that reporters walking among the May Day protesters were unsuccessful in getting a clear answer to that question? Most of them thought it was the thing to do because the May Day Coalition’s social media sites said so: No work. No School. No shopping.
Some didn’t know if they were part of a “no kings” rally, an anti-ICE protest, or a demand for social justice, or climate control.… read more

When I think of how President Trump amassed our military force and ordered strikes on thousands of targets in Iran that not only decimated key miliary sites but took out its leadership, I recalled William Shatner’s opening line describing the mission of the Enterprise in the Star Trek series – “to boldly go where no man has gone before.”… read more
NOTICE: For some time, I have considered making a change in the heading on this blog. I am not a vane person, but the photo of me was taken 12 years ago, when I began publishing my commentaries online, and frankly, I’ve aged.
Without a reasonable photo, I decided to join a lot of the columnists I read regularly, who publish with a caricature of themselves.… read more

Memories. It’s strange how our brain files them away. Embarrassingly, I often forget the name of someone I just met minutes earlier. However, I can recall details of political dirty tricks. The lies, deceit and the bastards behind them as if they happened yesterday.
It was in August of 2017, I wrote about the skullduggery of the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), and the hate activities of which were identified with the group that is now – nearly 10 years later – finally revealed in an 11-count indictment returned by a federal grand jury in Alabama’s Middle District.… read more
