European Nationalism is a Delusion

By Rich Kozlovich

I just watched this podcast by George Friedman regarding Germany the AdF and European unity, and for the most part I agree with much of what he's said in that there will never be a “unified” Europe.  Europe is a continent of competing nations speaking over 200 languages and having their own cultural peculiarities, and the new generation believes it has the right to determine their own fate and not be bound by the restrictions imposed by the events of WWII.  That's especially true in Germany. 

The EU is an illusion, and a destructive one.  NATO was the only thing that held them together.  However, I do think this election victory by the AfD  in Germany is big; much bigger than many may think. We're coming into the final stages of this historical cycle, and it's been my view for years somewhere in the political movements of these nations there's a Hitler or Mussolini style character with the rhetorical charisma to charm the populace into a massive political upset, including violence.

The difference is they're not going to be concerned with conquering the world. Their focus will be on saving ethnic Europeans and the European culture, and that's going be a binding force among these like movements emerging in Europe. It's already taking shape in Ireland, the UK, France, and now Spain after this Ceuta disaster. 

The difference between the mass migration from Europe to the US was all those people who came to America wanted to become Americans. Not Serbs, Hungarians, Poles, etc, who just happened to live in America, but Americans who just happened to be of different ethnic origins. Muslims don't want to be Germans, French, Brits or Spanish, they want Europeans to abandon European culture and become Muslims....or else.

You have to wonder what in the world possesses these European “leaders” to hate their nation, their culture, and their people so much, and the people are going to rebel. While this is being debated as to how big this election was, I think this is huge, and I think will spread throughout Germany and the rest of Europe. The outrages perpetrated by Muslims all over Europe has taken it's toll, and those politicians who've supported all this immigration and covered over the facts are going to pay, and I also believe the transition will involve massive levels of violence, and Russia will be the least of their concerns. Europe is in a downward swirling vortex of economic destruction, and nothing's going to stop it.

What I'm Reading: 9/11

By Rich Kozlovich 

I started posting this at 7:30 AM with a number of linked articles.  I've continually updated this today to include a lot more linked articles.  All profound, provocative and factual, and an excellent resource for those who desire to be able to tell this story as it really happened, and will continue to happen until Western civilization accepts the world is in a one sided undeclared religious war, and it's losing.  

We’re Just Seeing This Now? 25 Years Later?… CIA Declassifies Historic Document Warning George W. Bush That Bin Laden Was “Determined to Strike in US” — Clinton Learned of Airplane Plot Three Years Earlier -  On the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, CIA Director John Ratcliffe released 71 President’s Daily Brief documents spanning from February 1998 through the morning of September 12, 2001. This is the largest public dump of 9/11-related presidential intelligence the Agency has ever made.  The collection, which includes more than 100 pages of heavily redacted documents, was framed by Ratcliffe as “an act of exceptional transparency” and “consistent with President Donald Trump’s historic transparency initiative.”.........

9/11 Was The Beginning Of A Religious War That We Lost - Twenty-five years ago this week I listened to the late historian Stephen Ambrose deliver the opening remarks for a conference about World War Two at Hillsdale College. He had good news for us. The 21st century, Ambrose declared, would be an era of peace and progress. He said the major conflicts of the 20th century, the two world wars and the Cold War that followed, were fundamentally disputes within the West over competing visions for our civilization. The whole century had in a sense been a long civil war, and now the war was over.......

Two days later the planes hit the towers. Today, it’s easy to see just how naive and shallow Ambrose’s analysis was. The idea that there would be no more major ideological conflicts, or that Western civilization had nothing to fear from competing cultures and peoples, was positively delusional........

 

America’s Greatest Danger Has Been Post-9/11: We’re Doing to Ourselves What the Terrorists Could Not - The only thing more cataclysmic to America than the 9/11 attacks has been the stunning erosion of patriotism and kinship we’ve seen in the quarter-century since the mournful cleanup. While foreign flags fly proudly in street protests, the American flag has made some feel “ Meanwhile, the New York mayor’s actions and associations rightly “Some people did something,” is how Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minnesota, remembered the attacks.  There for a while, hating on America was shockingly in vogue:............ The terrorists of 9/11 brought down New York’s Twin Towers, along with four airliners packed with innocents. But only we stand capable of flying planes into our most fundamental beliefs, traditions and institutions...........

25 Years of Denial - The West saw the threat on 9/11 – then it spent a quarter century pretending not to see it.  Today marks a quarter century since 9/11. What’s left to say about that day and its long, dark aftermath? I’ve probably written a dozen or so of these anniversary pieces, and at this point I feel like an old preacher trying to come up with a fresh angle for a sermon about the good Samaritan. But there is no fresh angle: the lesson of 9/11 is a singular one, and a simple one. 

It was there before our eyes on that very morning– if we knew a few basic facts and dared to add them up – and it hasn’t changed at all. The only thing that has changed is the extent of the damage that has resulted from the continued refusal of our leaders, our media, and our educators to speak that simple truth.

It’s still astonishing to ponder the scale of the impact that one person can have in human history. Days after the Twin Towers fell, George W. Bush, speaking in a cathedral with an imam at his side, assured us that the attacks in New York and at the Pentagon had nothing to do with Islam. Islam, he maintained, was a religion of peace.   It was a lie. It was a colossally dangerous lie. And he knew it.......

Schools Discussing 9/11 by Teaching About ‘Islamophobia,’ Downplaying al-Qaeda, and Even Assigning bin Laden’s Manifesto - A quarter century after 19 al-Qaeda hijackers murdered 2,977 people in New York, at the Pentagon, and in a Pennsylvania field, new leftist universities, unions, and advocacy groups are teaching American students that the story of September 11 is mainly what happened to Muslims afterward........Additionally, Pittsburgh’s Voices Ethnic Studies materials tell students the attacks produced “increased experiences with racism and Islamophobia” and skip who died and who did it.......

School district's stunner: Don't associate the 9/11 attacks with Islam or Muslims - Guide to educators tells them to 'disrupt' students guilty of 'Islamophobic rhetoric. A school district just outside of Washington, D.C., where one of the four jets hijacked and crashed by radical Muslims in pursuit of their Islamic ideologies on 9/11 crashed into the Pentagon, has told teachers not to "associate the 9/11 attacks with Islam or Muslims." "You mean, like, the MUSLIM TERRORISTS ACTING EXPLICITLY IN OBEDIENCE TO ISLAMIC THEOLOGY ABOUT WAGING WAR ON UNBELIEVERS, AS DEMONSTRATED ACROSS 1,400 YEARS OF WORLD HISTORY??" suggested a commentary at Not the Bee...........

Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, PA. - The row of colored flags eked, creaked, and fluttered in a gusting, biting wind that swept across the hill. The guide raised her voice above the shrill as the people drew closer so they wouldn't miss a word, wiped their eyes, and bent their heads. It was Shanksville, PA, September 2007, and it was like no other I had ever heard. It was an American tragedy, and it occurred on 9/11/01.......

 When Leftists Pounced on the Unity of 9/11 -  Not every American president has sounded the right notes for our national pain after the terrorist attack on Sept. 11, 2001. Twelve days after Hamas unleashed its mass murder in Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, President Joe Biden suggested that 9/11 was all about the Arabs and the Muslims.  "I know many of you in the Muslim American community or the Arab American community, the Palestinian American community, and so many others are outraged and hurting, saying to yourselves, 'Here we go again,' with Islamophobia and distrust we saw after 9/11," Biden declared. He said after 9/11, America "sought and got justice," but "we made mistakes, so I cautioned the government of Israel not to be blinded by rage.".......

Two Anniversaries, One Warning: What America Must Remember - This week, America marks two solemn anniversaries on consecutive days. September 10 marks one year since Charlie Kirk was assassinated while engaging students in public debate at Utah Valley University. September 11 marks 25 years since terrorists murdered nearly 3,000 people on American soil......

 Dartmouth’s 9/11 - Following 9/11 the New York Times ran Portraits of Grief profiling many of those lost in the 9/11 attacks. The Times attributes authorship of these artful profiles collectively to Kirk Johnson, N.R. Kleinfeld, David Barstow, Barbara Stewart, Jane Gross, Neela Banerjee, Constance L. Hays, Lynette Holloway, Janny Scott, and Somini Sengupta. We can’t capture the magnitude of the loss, or the meaning of who and what we lost, but the Times’s focus on individuals made a contribution to our understanding. Taking just one small slice, I wanted to retrieve from the series the Times’s portraits of Dartmouth alumni who were murdered on 9/11. With the death of each of these men, a world was lost. We remember:

EXCLUSIVE — 9/11 Victim’s Daughter Tells Mamdani to Stay Away from 25th Anniversary — ‘Don’t Come. We Don’t Want You There’ - Jeannette Puccio-Pick, who was nine years old when her father was killed in the September 11 attacks, is calling on New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to stay away from Friday’s 25th-anniversary commemoration, joining more than 110,000 signatories in opposing his attendance as she accuses the democratic socialist mayor of affiliating himself “politically, personally and professionally” with people she says have “minimized and justified the murdering of my father.”......

 It’s Not Over -  On September 11, some of us opened our eyes. Others closed them as hard as they could.   In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate,” a terrorist declares on the Flight 93 cockpit recording. That’s followed by the sounds of the terrorists assaulting a passenger.  “Please don’t hurt me,” he pleads. “Oh God.”  As the passengers rush the cabin, a Muslim terrorist proclaims, “In the name of Allah.”  As New York firefighters struggle up the South Tower with 100 pounds of equipment on their backs trying to save lives until the very last moment, the Flight 93 passengers push toward the cockpit. The Islamic hijackers call out, “Allahu Akbar.”...........

On John F. Kennedy Boulevard, in Jersey City, across the river from Manhattan, crowds of Muslim settlers celebrated the slaughter of Americans. “Some men were dancing, some held kids on their shoulders,” a retired Jersey City cop described the scene. “The women were shouting in Arabic.”.............

Our enemies wake up every day wondering how to destroy us. Their methods, from demographic invasion to WMDs, from political subversion to random stabbings, are many........

Dem El-Sayed Whines Republican Mike Rogers Is Making Leftist Ally Hasan Piker’s ‘America Deserved 9/11’ Comments an Issue…Then Complains People Don’t Denounce Violent Rhetoric! - On Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed responded to his Republican opponent Mike Rogers criticizing him for campaigning with Hasan Piker given Piker’s remarks on America deserving 9/11 by saying that it’s “sad” that Rogers “thinks that the issue is a streamer in California,” but then said that what has “become normal in our politics” is “literally calls to violence, and the inability for anybody to actually call it out” in response to what someone at the Republican Convention said about him...........

The 9/11 Miniseries the Left Wouldn’t Let You SeeMark Tapson And still won’t.  I was glad to see that journalist John Miller published a Wall Street Journal opinion piece this week reminding Americans of a miniseries that “some want us to forget,” as he put it. That show was the extraordinary and controversial The Path to 9/11, an ABC miniseries written and produced by writer/director Cyrus Nowrasteh*.  

Aired across the nights of September 10^th and 11^th in 2006, and featuring stars like Harvey Keitel, Patricia Heaton, Amy Madigan, and Donnie Wahlberg, The Path to 9/11 dramatized the historical thread connecting the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, Islamic attacks on American interests throughout the ‘90s, and the terrorism of that fateful morning in 2001. The miniseries connected the dots for audiences more thoroughly and accurately than any Hollywood project before or since. .........

Why the Democrat panic and threats? Because Clinton administration alumni feared the historically accurate docudrama would highlight their flaccid response to the growing threat of Islamic extremism in the ‘90s, tarnish their political legacy, and surface as an embarrassment to Hillary Clinton as she eyed the presidency herself........ 

A place to see ABC’s memory-holed ‘The Path to 9/11’ - Remember the movie that exposed how we could have prevented 9/11 were it not for the inept and corrupt Clinton Administration?  Both the Wall Street Journal and National Review wrote pieces on September 8th about ABC’s two-part, $40M production, “The Path to 9/11,” which aired once and only once 20 years ago on September 10/11, 2006, then all but disappeared.

Why did it air only once?

Democrats went all Tony Soprano on ABC, intimidating them with the fury and force of the federal government.  (Cute little network you got there.  Shame if something happened to it….)  And why did they do it?  It made Bill Clinton look bad.  It made members of the Clinton Administration look bad.  Those portrayed negatively objected.  Bill Clinton himself objected.  Some Democrats on the Hill wrote letters to then-president of ABC Bob Iger to stop it from airing at all.

Team Clinton even bullied the actors themselves..........ABC aired it anyway, but just that once, then they never licensed it out for distribution in any way, shape, or form.  The only way to see it now is via private citizens who recorded it and uploaded it to the internet.  I found one.  I was surprised at how little effort it took.  I’m frankly shocked it’s still there, as the copy I found has been up for a year.  (So I’d watch it quickly before it’s taken down.)  It was the best copy of about a half dozen I could find.  They all look to have been recorded via VCR, so the screen quality is, to our 2026 eyes, notably lacking, but the copy below is acceptable.  Part One, Part Two

What Mohamed Atta Was Trying to Tell Us on 9/11 - The document is among the most neglected pieces of evidence from Sept. 11 because it contradicts the explanations of the attack that most Western commentators preferred. Atta was not poor. He was not radicalized by drone strikes that had not yet happened, nor by American support for Israel. He was not in any formal or organizational sense an “Islamist.” Rather, he had an uncompromising and militant commitment to Islam that he was ready to die for......

 It’s Time to Recognize Iran’s Complicity in the 9/11 Attacks - Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said recently that Iranian assets seized by the U.S. Treasury could be held for the Iranian people or be distributed to victims of Iranian state terrorism. He mentioned specifically the families of those killed on the USS Cole in 2000. In previous statements, he has mentioned families of those killed by Iran in the Marine Barracks bombing in Beirut in April 1983 and those of sailors killed in recent attacks in and around the Strait of Hormuz. 

But he has never referred to the families of those who perished in the September 11, 2001, attacks, even though they account for a majority of claimants to the U.S. Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund (USVSST), which was established by Congress in 2015. The 9/11 Commission documented Iranian assistance to al-Qaeda on pages 240-241 of its final report, based on information it uncovered at the eleventh hour before publication......... 

What we have forgotten about 9/11 - Twenty-five years after 9/11, the Islamist war against the liberal, democratic West still shapes our daily lives. Most Americans recognize that certain people and groups around the world want to destroy us—sometimes for reasons we can comprehend, sometimes not. Remembering 9/11 stands, in part, for the proposition that we will not allow the terrorists to win. Our laws, at least as written, have codified that remembrance. They reflect our national conclusion that foreign terrorist organizations are among the most depraved criminal enterprises imaginable. It was once commonplace to hear President George W. Bush declare that you were either part of the free world or aligned with the terrorists. Yet 25 years later, that ultimatum seems far less self-evident...... 

25 Years After 9/11, Osama bin Laden Is Winning - The ideology of Salafism, originalist or fundamentalist Islam, is largely unknown to the average westerner. Without diving into a exegesis on the writings of Abdullah Azzam (who extolled the critical centrality of jihad for Muslims) and Hasan al Banna (the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood), the abbreviated history of the last quarter century in America since the attacks of 9/11 would please them no end...... 

25 Years Later: The Warnings Still Remain  - Tomorrow marks 25 years since the attacks of September 11, 2001 shattered America's complacency and changed the course of the world. A quarter-century later, it is worth remembering that the warning signs were not invisible in the years — and even in the hours — before that day........ 

A 9/11 Conspiracy Debunker’s Guide - I spent thirty-eight minutes last week debunking September 11 conspiracy theories one by one with Shabbos Kestenbaum on PragerU’s The Brief. Many of you are familiar with the most popular ones: Jet fuel cannot melt steel; WTC 7 was brought down by explosive charges; a missile struck the Pentagon; dancing Israelis are evidence the Mossad was behind the terror attack........ 

 ‘There was nothing we could do’: NYPD high rise rescue master recalls watching 9/11 helplessly unfold from the sky -  Donald LaSala was at work in Brooklyn, eating breakfast and watching the news, when he got the call to respond as a member of the NYPD’s Emergency Services Unit (ESU). He was being sent to the World Trade Center to perform a high-rise helicopter rescue on Sept. 11, 2001......  

Students with President George W. Bush on 9/11 reflect on the day: ‘You could see it on his face’ -Former Sarasota, Florida, second grade student Krystal Davis remembers a wave of confusion washing over her and her classmates on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, after a suited man whispered into the ear of the president of the United States, who was seated just in front of the students......  

Never forget ‘I relive 9/11 every single day,’ hero custodian, the last man out of WTC’s North Tower, says - William Rodriguez never took a sick day in his nearly 20 years as a custodian at the North Tower of the World Trade Center. But he seriously considered it on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001. “It was so beautiful outside, I thought, ‘I’m just gonna stay home and hang out,'” he told The Post. “I called my supervisor and said I wasn’t going to work.”  But his boss begged him to come in — a decision that would change the course of his life.......

 The Dirty Little Secret Behind Mamdani’s Attempt to Make the 9/11 Anniversary About Him - There is a strategic reason why controversy surrounds Zohran Mamdani during the week of the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 radical Islamic terrorist attacks on America. It’s not just because he’s an attention-seeking, spoiled child of privilege with an ego bigger than Barack Hussein Obama’s. Though all of that is certainly true.......

 School district accused of scrubbing 9/11 as guide tells teachers to dodge Islam - 9/11 with radical Islam and to be sure to create "safe spaces" for Muslim students as the nation somberly marks the 25th anniversary of the terror attacks that killed nearly 3,000 Americans. The guardrails in a six-page instructional guide, "25th Anniversary and Commemoration of 9/11" and distributed to teachers, has prompted critics to accuse Fairfax County (Virginia) Public School's liberal leaders of coddling post-9/11 sensitivities rather than teaching history.

Drone show recreates Twin Towers, honors 2,977 victims ahead of 25th anniversary of 9/11 attacks in New York - A drone show illuminated the skies over New York Harbor Wednesday night as part of a tribute marking the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks. The artwork, titled "2,977 Lights Over New York Harbor," featured 2,977 lights, one for each person killed in the 9/11 attacks. The lights rose over the harbor before assembling into the outline of the Twin Towers at full architectural scale.............

Shadows from 9/11 - There are moments when history does not merely happen around us; it enters the house and parks itself at the head of the table.  I grew up watching the World Trade Center rise, but us kids never called it that. To us, they were the Twin Towers. I watched them climb skyward in that burnt orange iron inner façade that defined a childhood, when New York felt endless and everything seemed constructed to last.

The Empire State Building, completed in 1931, ruled the cityscape as the world’s tallest building for four decades, however it was in 1973 the Towers redefined Manhattan’s imposing skyline. A friend’s dad was on the job helping build what would become the tallest buildings on Earth, and gave us boys hard hats with the tower’s logo front and center.  The Empire State Building symbolized the city’s early ambition; while the Towers were their contemporary stretch. Those Towers were not just modern architecture, they were identity. They were permanence.

Then, on a single morning, they were gone.......

Remembering September 11, 2001, through real-time video timelines - Viewing events as they happened 25 years ago—playing out in real time on the news—may be the best way to memorialize the day.  It’s been an almost surreal, PTSD-like experience researching and reviewing old videos of that “severe clear” Tuesday 25 years ago. Many media outlets eventually stopped routinely showing videos of that day's events, so the footage largely gets proper attention only on anniversaries.......

September 11, 2001 Started as an Ordinary Day

By Robin M. Itzler 

"The enemy is inside the wire and they will use all means by which to subvert Western civilization into yet one more dhimmitude frontier. This must be made clear to all the potential dhimmis before their fate is made irreversible by their lack of awareness or lack of action. Recalling Trump’s call for the people to “Fight, fight, fight”, this is the most poignant battle which faces the world today, and to the victor will go the spoils of nothing less than the future fate of the world."

September 11, 2001, was just an ordinary Tuesday. That morning at around 8:30 a.m. on the east coast, most people were either at work or on their commute. Kids were settling in at school. On the west coast, folks were likely getting ready to do the same. 

Whether the TV or radio news was background chatter or the focus, suddenly there were interruptions announcing that at 8:46 a.m. an American Airlines Boeing 767 (with 20,000 gallons of jet fuel) had crashed into New York City’s World Trade Center’s North Tower. The jet hit between the 93rd and 99th floors of the 110-story skyscraper. Hundreds of people were instantly killed, and others were trapped on the higher floors with no way to escape.

Most people immediately assumed it was a terrible accident, and they continued along with their day while listening for news updates.

However, 17 minutes later at 9:03 a.m. United Airlines Flight 175 hit the South Tower between the 77th and 85th floors.

Americans immediately knew that the United States was under attack, with many correctly guessing WHO had attacked us.

This was not the first time the World Trade Center had been attacked by Muslim terrorists. On February 26, 1993, Islamist terrorists targeted the World Trade Center. A truck bomb exploded in the North Tower’s underground parking structure, killing six people and injuring more than 1,000.

(In October 2025, then mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani visited Masjid At-Taqwa, a mosque in Brooklyn. The smiling Mamdani had his photo taken with Imam Siraj Wahhaj, whom federal prosecutors once named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Is anyone surprised?)

While the world focused on the World Trade Center in Manhattan, American Airlines Flight 77 was circling Arlington, Virginia, which is near Washington, D.C. At 9:37 a.m. the jet crashed into the west side of the Pentagon.

A few minutes later at 9:45 a.m., the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) officially ordered a complete shutdown of U.S. airspace and commanded all airborne planes to land immediately at the nearest airport.

At 9:59 a.m. the South Tower collapsed.

By this time passengers on United Airlines Flight 93 were aware that their plane was not experiencing a “regular” hijacking. They had been calling family and friends who told them about the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. Knowing they were going to die, their goal was to divert the plane away from wherever it planned to go. (Later it was revealed that the fourth plane was intended to hit the heart of America’s republic – the U.S. Capitol.) At 10:02 a.m., at a speed of 500 miles per hour, Flight 93 crashed in a rural field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The passengers and crew were heroes for diverting the plane away from D.C.

At  10:28 a.m., the North Tower collapsed. A small group (14 to 18 people) miraculously survived. They were with several New York firefighters in the North Tower’s Stairwell B, which somehow remained intact when the tower fell. Hours later, everyone was pulled from the debris.

Most of the world was glued to their television, radio, social media and phones. For the United States of America, there will always be a ‘before 9-11’ and ‘after 9-11’ view of the world.

President George Bush, who was in Florida when the strikes started, had been shuttled to various locations for protection while in contact with government agents about the unfolding events. By 7 p.m., he was back at the White House. At 8:30 p.m., President Bush addressed the American people and the entire world from the Oval Office. Sitting at the Resolute Desk, he said:

“Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shatter steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve.”

In the days and weeks following the attack, New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (since called “America’s Mayor” for his outstanding post 9-11 leadership) told the American people:

“The attacks of September 11th were intended to break our spirit. Instead, we have emerged stronger and more unified. We feel renewed devotion to the principles of political, economic and religious freedom, the rule of law and respect for human life. We are more determined than ever to live our lives in freedom.”

On September 11, 2026, Americans will commemorate the horrific day when Muslims attacked the United States of America killing 2,977 innocent people of all races and faiths. Thousands more who had spent weeks digging out the remains of the World Trade Center in the aftermath (and trying to find pieces of bodies) developed illnesses related to 9-11. Many lived with chronic respiratory diseases and died prematurely. More than 100 search and rescue dogs that were deployed to help find survivors in the rubble of the towers also suffered from medical ailments in the years following their service.

About 40 percent of the World Trade Center victims have been identified. It might have been from jewelry or body parts. Only 261 intact bodies were found. While workers were going through the debris, they found 65,000 items, including 437 watches and 144 wedding rings.

Twenty-five years later, there are many people, organizations and governments (including many in our own country) that refuse to speak the truth as to WHO committed the terrorist acts on September 11, 2001. As communist Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar once said, “Some people did something.”

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) asked that the word “terrorist” not be used in conjunction with the 9-11 MUSLIM TERRORIST attacks. Former Governor George E. Pataki responded on X to that request:

“I was Governor of New York on September 11, 2001.

The planes did not simply crash into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. They were hijacked and deliberately flown into those buildings by Islamist terrorists.

The CBC’s refusal to call September 11 a terrorist attack is political correctness masquerading as journalism. Fear of being accused of Islamophobia cannot become an excuse for denying the plain truth. This is a shameful failure of moral courage.

Truth matters in a free society. Sanitizing September 11 dishonors the nearly 3,000 people who were murdered, the first responders who ran toward danger, and every family that still carries the pain of that day.

No institution should be afraid to tell the truth.”

At this year’s 25th anniversary Memorial Ceremony in Manhattan, families of the victims will gather on the plaza at the Memorial & Museum. They will read aloud the names of the 2,983 people killed in the 2001 attacks and the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

A quarter of a century ago, the United States was attacked by Islamist terrorists who used planes as their weapons. Today many believe Islamist attacks are attacking the United States with ballots. What do YOU think?

James Talarico and His Church

 By Rich Kozlovich

Talarico is alleged to be a devout church going Christian, claiming his "Christian faith as a justification for far left policies", but his theological views can hardly be viewed as an embrace of traditionally foundational Christian thinking or values.  It seems to me he's a heretic of the first order.  Others are more specific saying his views are a "perversion, of Christianity.”  Let's take a quick look.

1.  He insists the Bible requires the government to provide health care.  It appears he and John Kasich apparently went to the same Bible classes.  
2. He claims the Bible is silent on abortion, 
3. Supported a gay pride event alongside an 11 YEAR-OLD child drag queen. 
4. Believed.... at least until he backtracked... there are six biological sexes. 
5. Believes and any effort to prevent  “gender-affirming healthcare to trans children as Christofascism.
6. Accuses Christianity of being the “most violent” religion that has done “more damage” to Islam."
7. Defends convicted murderer Karmelo Anthony.
8. Wants to redefine faith and God Is Not a Christian’. 
9. God is non binary 
10. He's convinced Jesus is not the only way to truth and that Islam leads to the "same" truth.

For some time I've watched Talarico's theological views playing out and I wondered how the membership of his church felt about those views.  Now I know.  They're just as strange as Talarico. 

He and his "Woke Church harbored illegal aliens to hide them from ICE, and it turns out members of his church wishes the Trump shooter in Butler, PA ‘had been more successful".  

What kind of members belong to this "church"?  Well, if we're to believe the female pastor of this church, most the members of the congregation are agnostic or atheist.  Make sure to scroll down to see the video of this pastor. 

What I find incredible about these people is why they bother to go to church at all.  If they're atheists what value do they receive from attending, it certainly can't be of a spiritual nature?  Also,  I assume they must pray during their services but if they're atheists or agnostics, who exactly are they praying to and why?  I think there are two words that define these type of people.  Like all members of the Church of Wokeness, they're strange and sick. 

What I'm Reading: Europe

You have to wonder what in the world possesses these European “leaders” to hate their nation, their culture, and their people so much?  Whether it's agricultural practices, energy production, taxes, regulations, or immigration Europe is in a downward swirling vortex of destruction.  And worse yet, what in the world possesses the citizens of the UK and the rest of Europe to vote for them?

Well, not only is Europe facing a maelstrom of demographic and social disaster, they’re all headed into the economic toilet of massive debt they can’t repay. When they default their little worlds will come tumbling down, then we’re going to see civil disobedience and violence in Europe unlike anything the world has seen since WWII.

It’s called Stage Six of this historical cycle, and it's all coming home to roost, and it's been my view for years somewhere in the political movements of these nations there's a Hitler or Mussolini style character with the rhetorical charisma to charm the populace into a massive political upset, including violence.  The difference is they're not going to be concerned with conquering the world.  Their focus will be on saving ethnic Europeans and European culture, and it's my view the violence that will ensue will leave Europe devastated turning Europe into a third rate mess.

Let's not be delusional.  There is no conservative movement in France as we understand conservatism.  Whether it's Canada, France, England, Germany or any other western nation their "conservatives" are more like our RINO's.

2.  France Going Right? All across Europe, anti-immigration parties are gaining ground. By convention, they are deemed “far right” by the press, regardless of what other policy positions they may hold. In several countries, legal efforts have been made to keep anti-immigration parties off the ballot, lest they win. One of those countries is France, where Marine Le Pen, leader of the National Rally, was charged along with her party with a crime; namely, using European Union funding for political rather than EU parliamentary duties. Among other penalties, Le Pen was barred from running for office for five years, meaning that she was preventing from running in the 2027 race for President.  But Le Pen’s sentence was reduced on appeal, and she is the National Rally’s presidential candidate. The most recent polling has her with a commanding lead:

Germany 

According to one subscription site:

 "Germany's Merz Under Pressure as AfD Heads for Record Showing in Crucial State Elections With the AfD leading by a wide margin in polls for two upcoming state elections, the parties making up the national government face heavy losses that could paralyze its reform agenda."

And the ruling class doesn't like it and is going to do all it can to prevent them from taking power.  How's that for democracy.  The peasants just don't get it so in some way the ruling elite have to correct their wrong thinking, even if it means being underhanded and corrupt.  After all, since it's done in the name of saving democracy, so that makes it okay.

Is that an exaggeration?.......

Spain

Leftism is a secular religion, and has their own Kyrie Eleison   When failure eventually strikes the chant starts: 

It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault. Amen! 

Whose fault is it then? It's the Jews, it's Russia, it's Trump, it's the fault of the rest of Europe because they're prejudiced about not wanting more Muslim invaders in their countries.  Image that.  After all,  they don't have nearly enough rapist criminal Muslim immigrants of their own, so they should take Spain's.  Right?  

Considering who the Spanish voted in as their leaders this shouldn't have surprised anyone. Schadenfreude!

Instead, the Sanchez government is preparing to move thousands of Muslim migrants into mainland Spain.......Spain’s Ministry of Health is sending 45,000 doses of vaccines to deal with the migrant outbreaks including 10,000 polio, chickenpox, and diphtheria-tetanus vaccines and 15,000 MMR vaccines suggesting that the true number may be between 10,000 and 15,000. What the vaccine regime reveals even more than the numbers is the fact that they’re staying........People in occupied Ceuta have been protesting for a while, but now there are massive rallies in Spain against Sanchez’s invasion.

Thought For the Day

 By Rich Kozlovich

Recently a young boy told his mother when he grew up to be a man he wanted to be a Democrat. His mother told him he could be one or the other.  

There are two diametrically opposing views in America.  

There are those who believe in God, know what restroom to use, believe equal rights is not equity, believe in law and order, believe criminals need to be arrested tried for their crimes and put in jail, and have the most guns.  

And those who don't.

The Democrat party has shown an amazing ability for adaptability and transition.  In 1860 they were represented by the Confederate States of America attempting to destroy the United States, and now they're represented by the Muslim Brotherhood, with the goal of destroying the United States.  

No matter what your views are on life, there are some things that are absolutely foundational.  First, life is about patterns and circles. Patterns of behavior, and the social circles prompting that behavior, and those the patterns of life repeat over and over again.  

If we go through life expecting the best behavior out of humanity, we will live lives of eternal disappointment, because people will always be people, culture is king, and corruption is queen.  That's "the basics" and everything is "the basics".  See things at their foundational level because the more complicated we perceive reality, the less clarity we will possess. 

If you pay close attention to what people say and do, they will eventually tell you who and what they really want and who they really are, because time, reality and history are on the same side; truth! 

One final thought.  Does everyone wonder why people who left nations that are disasters came to America and have worked to turn America into the disasters they left?  

 

The Obscene Imprisonment of Tuo Thao

Chauvin Partner Speaks Out, Blames Obama, Walz, enemies “inside the gates”

By Jack Cashill @ Jack's Substack

Editor's Note:  I stopped publishing the works of others some time ago, with exceptions.  This is one of those exceptions.  RK 

After spending nearly three years in prison, Tuo Thao is prepared to speak out. When asked why, Thao told American Reformer’s Daniel Strand, “If I know the truth and allow an innocent man to languish in prison, what good am I to God?” The innocent man in question was his partner on the night of May 25, 2020, Derek Chauvin, now serving a 22-year prison sentence.

In the Federal court, Thao was sentenced to 42 months in prison for violating George Floyd’s civil rights. The State of Minnesota sentenced him to 57 months for aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter. With “good time,” Thao served a little more than three years.

Thao has often been asked, “How someone who was doing crowd control and never touched Floyd could have been charged.” The reason, he believes: was that “I would not bend the knee to the mob and could not be bribed as a witness.”

Thao protects officers from growing mob

Thao had particular value to the prosecution as a racial minority. His people, the Hmong of Laos, were persecuted for having sided with the Americans in their shared struggle against the Communists. The son of grateful refugees, Thao was not willing to collaborate with the crypto-commies who run Minnesota. “It was only by the grace of God and His mighty hand,” explains Thao, “that I was able to stand up to evil and call it out as such, knowing that it would cost me much pain.”

Jack’s Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

The prosecutors hoped Thao would turn on Chauvin. He refused. “I knew Derek personally. As a minority officer, if he were racist, why would I want to work with him?” says Thao. “I have never heard of anyone complaining that he was racist. That racial narrative was purely manufactured to stoke racial tension within the country.”

Thao knows his history. “I think we can also trace some of the racial tensions back to when President Barack Obama was in the White House,” said Thao. “You really see this oppressor and oppressed ideology being employed during election years. It’s kind of ironic because President Obama was elected as the first black president.”

Police Chief Medaria Arradondo lied under oath about Chauvin’s restraint

The case against Chauvin, elaborates Thao, was “absolutely unfair.” Knowing the case as well as he does, he cites the specifics. The restraint Chauvin used was “taught by the police department.” The original prosecutors, when “pressured to charge us and/or add charges,” removed themselves from the case.

The medical examiner, Andrew Baker, was “pressured professionally by an outside colleague, Dr. Roger Mitchell,” to add neck compression to the diagnosis or face public rebuke. The prosecutors schemed “to avoid any illicit drug discussions.”

These corruptions in the Chauvin case went unchecked because the powers that be had pre-positioned their thumbs on the scale of justice. Thao does not shy from naming names, citing “Tim Walz, Keith Ellison, Jacob Frey, Minneapolis Police Department Chief Medaria Arradondo…and Judge Peter Cahill,” not to mention “the Biden Department of Justice” and the “mainstream media.” Under these circumstances, says Thao, “It is impossible to defend yourself.”

Daddy comes home after 3 years in prison

Prison was not easy. On day one, he narrowly avoided an assassination attempt. For the duration, he desperately missed his wife and three children. What sustained him was his faith in Jesus. Says Thao, “As we know, Jesus says that in this life we will have trials and tribulations, but he has overcome the world. That is a promise those who are suffering can hold on to.”

For further education on this subject, Thao recommends The Fall of Minneapolis and Minnesota Mao, both films by Liz Collin and Dr. J.C. Chaix. “The enemies of our nation are not at the gates,” he concludes, “but inside the gates now, infiltrating all our institutions.”

Not without hope, Thao adds, “I believe it is our responsibility to ensure fertile ground for the faith of our children to be practiced and matured in this nation.” Thao’s valiant story undermines every virtue our friends on the left attribute to themselves. Please share.

Thought For the Day

By Rich Kazlovich  (Cartoon source American Thinker)

If this cartoon reflects reality, then of the 193 members of the UN less than half are considered free.   If these other countries aren't free, or only mostly free, then they're violating the UN Charter. Right?   This bodes well three questions. 

1. We're they ever free? If not, why were they allowed UN membership? 
2. What does mostly free mean exactly? 
3. If they were free and then turned tyrannical, why hasn't their UN membership been revoked? 

The answer is simple.  The UN is the most corrupt and incompetent organization the world has ever known. 

Thought For the Day

There are four immutable rules of the criminal mind. 

1. Never give up the con. 
2. I’m innocent, the crime was done by someone who looked like me. 
3. The police planted the evidence on me. 
4. If appropriate, the cops only arrested me because I’m black.

Thought For the Day

By Rich Kozlovich, (This cartoon appeared in the American Thinker article, Why Are Liberal White Women So Angry?)

Between 40% and 50% of all first time marriages fail in America. The divorce rate for second marriages in the United States is estimated to be between 60% and 67%, and 73% to 74% of third marriages end in divorce.  And you wonder why? 

Here's one suggestion:

"[We;'re] living in the feminist future that these witless, self-indulgent, agnostic, supposedly well-educated, and miserable women promoted, there is an ongoing calamitous erosion of a unique American civilization?"

 "New poll shows liberal women the most unhappy, lonely.  Liberal women between ages of 18-40 nearly three times as likely as conservative peers to report frequent feelings of loneliness"

What I'm Reading: Russo/Ukrainian War

By Rich Kozlovich

Outright conflict between Russia and Ukraine has been going on for 12 years, ever since Russia annexed Ukraine's Eastern area and Crimea.  The current conflict has gone on for 4 1/2 years and has devastated both nations economically and demographically.  

Russia's demographic problems were already substantial long before Putin invaded Ukraine outright, but now it's gone beyond a "problem", it's a crisis for Russia, even if no one is admitting it.  He's had tremendous difficulty recruiting men for his army for a number of reasons so now he's decided to reinstate "martial education for students", which was a traditional social paradigm in all the Soviet Union states, including Ukraine, which is following suit now.  But there's a difference.  

It's been said "generals always fight the last war", and that's what Russia's doing, while Ukraine is forced into fighting tomorrow's wars. 

Russia is pushing for boots on the ground and Ukraine is pushing for more and better technology involving drone warfare, especially since Ukraine doesn't have the population necessary to offset Russia's population.  It's a matter of mathematics, and for Ukrainians, "mobilization is still a source of public discontent."  So they've chosen a different path toward militarization of their population.  Technology, as in drone warfare.  Their program toward militarization involves "building a network to train more drone operators, engineers and designers."  Geopolitical Futures notes:

At first, Kyiv relied on private companies to organize summer schools. Gradually, it developed a nationwide network of private schools that today graduates thousands of drone specialists each year. Still, the supply of drone experts was failing to meet the demands of Ukraine's military, suggesting a need to transform public education in the country. At this point, robotics is better integrated into Ukraine's formal education system than drone training, which is usually offered as an elective course or through training at vocational schools, special university programs or specialized centers.

The conclusion some have come away with is all this won't stop the war and will merely strengthen "internal cohesion", but the fact is war is... expensive.... and neither nation has the economic wherewithal to continue this indefinitely.   

This is part of what historians call a "historical cycle", of which there are six stages.  We're at the end stages of this current cycle, and all end stages are filled with violence and economic downturns.  Currently, depending on who you read, we're at the end of the fifth stage or the beginning of the six stage.  The six stage is often defined by revolutions and civil wars, and it seems clear that's a very real potential, and in my view, that's coming to Russia.  Will Ukraine face that same consequence? It's quite possible!   If reports are to be believed, their government is blatantly corrupt, and their people despise them.  I could see a violent overthrow of their current government.  

Update:  Ukraine’s ousted defence minister challenges Zelensky and calls for wartime elections - Mykhailo Fedorov says Ukraine faces ‘systemic crisis of governance’.   Ukraine’s former defence minister has called for wartime elections in a direct challenge to president Volodymyr Zelensky. Mykhailo Fedorov, 35, whose ouster as defence chief in July triggered major protests in the country, issued the call in a video address shared on YouTube. “Democracy cannot be held hostage by Russia. We must find a legal, safe and realistic mechanism that will allow Ukraine to renew its full democratic process even in the conditions of a long war,” he said........ 

It might be noted one of the things Fdeorov was attempting to do was fix the financial issues involving Ukraine's military, i.e., corruption.  It's believed senior military personnel demanded his outing and he was ousted with Zelenskyy's approval. 

 Update, 8/21/26: 

1. Ukraine farmers despair as Russian Black Sea blockade traps harvest - Ukrainian farmer Serhiy Rybalko lost two-thirds of his land when Russia occupied a large part of southern Ukraine at the start of the invasion in 2022.  Now he is suffering a different kind of torment as a potentially good harvest is thrown into jeopardy by a Russian campaign of attacks that has almost halted agricultural ​exports from Ukraine's Black Sea ports.  Ukraine is among the world's largest producers of wheat, corn and sunflower seeds and around 90% of its exports of such crops go through the Black Sea.   Compounding the problem, Ukraine's wheat harvesting campaign is ‌at its peak. Rybalko's grain storage is already nearly full and Ukraine's corn harvest is due to start next month. "There is nowhere to send this grain," the 57 year old farmer said as he stood at his silo.......

Note: One subscription site noted that "Ukraine shipped just 500,000 tons of grain since the start of August, about one-fifth of its potential volume, after intensified Russian strikes suspended commercial traffic through the Odesa-area ports in late July....."

What Governor Maura Healey Really is: A Proud Abortionist

By Rich Kozlovich, Tags:

On August 12, 2026 I posted this piece, Abortion and the Morally Vacuous, saying:

The word vacuous means: "empty, lacking in intelligence, or showing a lack of ideas and thought and describes something or someone that has no substance, meaning or expression."  

Morally vacuous is the term that clearly defines those politicians who support abortion at any level, but this action by this Massachusetts Governor even has some Democrats balking calling this law barbaric, and since she professes to be a "proud" Catholic, she needs to be called to task on that.  This article was published yesterday, Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey Responds to Excommunication Calls After Legalizing Abortions Until Birth, saying:

The office for Democrat Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey responded to calls for her to excommunicated from the Catholic Church for legalizing abortion up until birth in the state.  Healey, who identifies as lesbian and is a self-proclaimed Catholic, signed a bill on Aug. 10 called the Prioritizing Patient Access to Care Act or H. 5595, which allows unborn babies to be aborted throughout pregnancy up until birth and strikes down the state’s 24-week limit, which had exceptions for the life of the mother and deadly fetal diagnoses. 

Under the bill, doctors have the discretion to decide whether or not to perform a late-term abortion.......CatholicVote President and CEO Kelsey Reinhardt also sent a letter on Wednesday to the Catholic Bishops of Massachusetts calling for Healey to be excommunicated and asking for the Church to provide clarification and guidance to people of faith.......

Over the years I've watched politicians who profess to be devout Catholics, like Andrew Cuomo, Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Dick Durbin proclaim their absolute support of abortion.

Andrew Cuomo: Friend of animals, crusher of babies' skulls The New York governor, who bans the use of elephants for entertainment, seemed proud to deny both sanctuary and medical assistance to the unborn.  

Dick Durbin: America is About ‘Flag, Family, God’---and Late-Term Abortion - Sen. Dick Durbin (D.-Ill.) said in a speech on the Senate floor yesterday that he believes American culture is about “flag, family, God.” This comes just five weeks after he voted against cloture on the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, thus helping to block a final Senate vote on a bill that would have prohibited aborting a baby after 20 weeks into pregnancy.

Pelosi on Backing Legislation to Guarantee Abortion on Demand: ‘I Come to This as a Catholic Mother  - House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.) gave a speech on the House floor today talking about her status as a “Catholic mother” before the chamber voted to approve the Women’s Health Protection Act—which guarantees a nation-wide right to abortion on demand.  “I come to this as a Catholic mother of five in six years and one week and with the joy that all that meant to us,” said Pelosi.  “But with the recognition that it was my husband and I –our decision.  It was our decision,” Pelosi said. “And we should not, in this body or in that Court, be making decisions for the women in America.”.

 Pres. Biden Declares That ‘No One Knows Precisely When Does Human Life Begin,’ Contradicting Catholic Catechism - “I’m a practicing Catholic,” President Joe Biden announced Tuesday, before contradicting the teachings of the Catholic Church by claiming that “no one knows” when human life begins. Biden made the comments at a reception in Golden Beach, Florida, for Democrat Gubernatorial Candidate Charlie Crist, where the president repeated his desire to pass a law providing a national right to abortion.... 

He's a practicing Catholic?  No, he may go to church, but he's not practicing Catholicism.  In point of fact under church law his position on abortion qualifies him for excommunication, right along with Cuomo, Durbin, Pelosi and now Governor Maura Healey, who if reports are true is in serious violation of church teachings in her personal life as well.  Now they're calling for her excommunication, and the real question is this:  Since abortion is considered a mortal sin by the church, why haven't all of these heretics  been excommunicated?   

Truth be told, and I have stated over and over again that any practicing Christian or Jew who supports abortion is a heretic.  You simply can't be a legitimate Christian or a Jew and a Democrat without being a heretic, and that includes these clerics from the various denominations that support Democrats and their heretical views.  If  that's true, and it is, then being a member of the Democrat party is heresy!  It really is that simple. 

New International Version 2 Timothy 4:3.  "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear."

New International Version Matthew 22, 23.  "Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'

 New International Version Isaiah 5:20.  "Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter."

Can we expect to see some action by Church leaders?  Based on past history, I think we can assume the answer is ... no!  Is it any wonder the sound you're hearing is the crash of civilization.  

Add-on's:  

1. Democrat Senate Candidate and Pastor Adam Hamilton Said He Studies Where the Apostle Paul Is ‘Wrong’ in the Bible

What Is It You Find That's So Unattractive?

By Rich Kozlovich 

Today Noel S. Williams posted this article, Passport Bros: 'I wish they all could be Filipina girls' saying:

Nowadays, the misguided Gen Z chicks get a kick out of rejecting any tradition, even pleasing standards of classical beauty..... Confusedly, they are still spending on so-called “beauty” products......So why are they getting so ghastly ugly? Is it so their skin-thin facade mirrors their inner ugliness?  

They are using beauty products to intentionally project an unglamorous vibe, that’s why. 

In some twisted way that only a mixed-up feminist could understand, it is a perverted manifestation of their futile “I don’t need a man” independence movement. To prove it, they use beauty products not to veil blemishes, but to enhance them. They want to turn men off, and it’s working.

Well, hey, c’mon man. Just because a woman may have issues with depression, anxiety, gender confusion, is unemployed with her credit cards maxed out, and spends her money on weed, tattoos, dyes her hair in unnatural colors, never met a man that wasn't seriously flawed, is an overweight vegan due to her lack of impulse control and insists on telling everyone  how to fix the country....... you seem to think that’s unattractive?  Imagine that.   You may find her picture among Powerline's This Week In Pictures, which was the source for most of this.   

Race Hustlers Will Always be Race Hustlers

By Rich Kozlovich  

It was recently reported the WNBA players were refusing to wear the USA 250 patch for their All Star game because 250 years ago there was slavery in America.  Okay, so what? 

1. Did it ever occur to them slavery existed for thousands of years?  
2. Did it ever occur to them slavery was ubiquitous in those days, including .... watch out now... here it comes.... in Africa.....where African slavery was created by Africans and Muslim slave traders who did the enslaving and merely sold them to everyone else?  
3. Did it ever occur to them it's still going on in Africa?
4. Did it ever occur to them America was the only nation in the history of the world that went to war to end slavery costing over 600,000 lives, some even claim 700,000 lives? 

That was a massive sacrifice to end the something that should have never taken place, and while there were black soldiers who fought in the war, that massive sacrifice was a white sacrifice.  Did any of that occur to them?  If it did, would they care?  No, they wouldn't because it's all about race hustling to justify everything that goes on in black America that's vile.  Ergo, all things great and small are racist now. 

Obama cast aspersions over the Founding Fathers because so many were slave holders, but that's typical of his ignorant corrupt race hustling.   Before he became President race relations was on a upward trend, and he had a chance to really make a positive difference in race relations in America.  He chose to sink down into the race hustling sewer instead.  

Originally there was an anti-slavery clause in the Constitution… promoted by slave owner Jefferson…. as it was clear that slavery was antithetical to the freedom being promoted by the Founding Fathers, and they understood that right from the beginning, but in spite of that, the battle over slavery was a major issue that was fought over in order to get the Southern colonies to sign the Constitution. 

The abolitionist Founding Fathers realized there would be no unified nation unless they gave in to slavery. What were they afraid of?  At that time the United States wasn't really united at all and worked under the Articles of Confederation.  The central government wasn't really a government.  The states truly were independent, and what they feared was if they didn’t unite and become a real nation, they’d become like Europe with its unending wars, and a very real potential of European intervention.  Truthfully, that’s what France wanted as they were ready to set up embassies in each state.

But for Obama to cast aspersions on the Founding Fathers takes real gall. They put their lives on the line, struggled with the revolution, and in the end they accomplished something that was unique in all of the world’s history. What we know as American democratic capitalism has brought more people out of misery and suffering than any other system in world history, ultimately including the descendants of those whose ancestors were slaves.  

And then Obama, who never had a real job, and never accomplished anything that didn’t turn into crap while President, has the nerve to criticize them. 

Race hustlers will always be race hustlers because they're shake down artists and grifters like Jesse Jackson and have nothing else.  So they live by the first rule of the criminal mind:  Never give up the con.
