    This is minor blowback compared to Trump; this dumbassery absolutely turned millions of people away from the Democrats and the same idiots can't control themselves.

    Libs are trying to get the Juneteenth (National Independence Day) to replace July 4th. If that actually happens, it's over for this country. IMHO.

    This is the same mistake that Kaepernick made. It's clear hatred for America and they are demanding that people make the choice of traditional patriotism versus their vision. It's almost deliberate; it's as if they want to force the cancel choice upon everyone because they have established their aggression as the only way to bring us together. They can't be that dumb. There has to be more to it than that. They want to punish and the first thing is to out racists, as they define it, so they can destroy them. So if you resist swapping Junteenth for the 4th of July then you are a racist and they will intimidate employers, advertisers and politicians into meek compliance.

    I have said the exact same thing. I laugh when conservatives are applauding when his ilk helped bring all this on.

    Yes, but Trump rallies start June 26th. Sometime soon, I don't know when yet, AZ election forensic audit results will be released. Then GA, MI, WI, PA and many other states will begin forensic audits. Probably at the same time. Eventually, there will be enough states that have proven election fraud that it will be insermountable. Then, these tech companies violating the 1st amendment will be busted for their collusion with the Government to cancel pro Trump posters and you tube sites. There are letters and emails proving there is collusion. All of this gets released at some point. Stating a date, is a fool's errand. Nobody knows. But it seems very likely to happen at some point. We just have to wait and see.

    PS. Jason Miller and Dan Scavino have alluded to a new online communication system being rolled out where Trump and conservatives can NEVER be canceled, shut down. Seems like it is a few months away, look for an internet shutdown. Appears imminent. www.x22report.com for details.

    There is no doubt about it. I don't understand the Liberal obsession with their "goodness." They're not. Not even close. They are ruthless b*stards.

    “Specifically, you educate Christians on what the Bible says in areas where they can be instrumental including the areas of sanctity of life, the definition of marriage, biblical justice, freedom of speech, defense, and borders and immigration, U.S. and Israel relations,” read a letter from IRS Exempt Organizations Director Stephen Martin to Christians Engaged, a nonprofit group seeking tax-exempt status. “The Bible teachings are typically affiliated with the [Republican Party] and candidates. This disqualifies you from exemption under IRC Section 501(c)(3).”

    LOL. That ought to be the easiest lawsuit in the nation. How many Muslim non-profit requests have been denied with similar language?

    This is what all Liberals voted for and apparently want for America. It was no secret that the militant zealotry was on the rise. Hatred of Trump was a political tool to regain power. Trump's appeal is that he was man enough to say that these types of anarcho-idealist-totalitarians are wrong in their approach and demands for these type of actions:

    Just read it. The militancy and arrogant unapologetic nature of the attacks on those who objected (ironically, other gay people) is unbelievable.

    They will never compromise. Stop arguing with them. You know what to do when you go vote.

    Most of the anti-Trump hysteria was prompted by the realization that a boorish clown with no talent for anything but banging hoors and bankrupting casinos was elected President

    the current demoralization is prompted by the fact that so many people, most of whom walk erect, are still enthralled with the goofy creep

    An interesting exchange between the more extreme right members of Congress and Joint Chief of Staff General Milley. They clashed on Critical Race Theory and the military's review of it. Racism was a large part of my experience in the early 90's within the US Army. That may have been an effect of bringing people together from all parts of the US. With that said, I can't remotely see how CRT can make the US Army less cohesive unless you are comfortable with the existing effects of racism in the military.

    Have you looked at the profile of the 1/6 insurrectionist, Boogaloo boys, Proud Boys and Oath Keepers? Clearly the military has some issues. It's not their only problem but A problem.

    In AIT @Ft Gordon, GA I had a guy in my company from South Carolina that pointed to a white dude from NYC dating an AA girl from out West. He told me "that ain't right". He told that Friday evening entertainment was to hop in a truck with his buddies and look for a black guy to beat up. He justified this by saying that if he was alone and saw a truck of black guys he knew to run. This was in '92. That was all so foreign to how I grew up. Racism in the military exists and was widespread from my experience. The military needs to confront it in all forms.

    @Seattle Husker

    I know you've been downplaying

    the heft of the extreme Left, which I abhor. This is an interesting article that supports your point of view:

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/progressives-urgent-win-over-voters-154409501.html?.tsrc=fp_deeplink

    "In a contest that centered on crime and public safety, Eric Adams, who emerged as the leading Democrat, focused much of his message on denouncing progressive slogans and policies that he said threatened the lives of “Black and brown babies” and were being pushed by “a lot of young, white, affluent people.” A retired police captain and Brooklyn’s borough president, he rejected calls to defund the Police Department and pledged to expand its reach in the city.

    Black and brown voters in Brooklyn and the Bronx flocked to his candidacy, awarding Adams with sizable leading margins in neighborhoods from Eastchester to East New York. Although the official winner may not be known for weeks because of the city’s new ranked-choice voting system, Adams holds a commanding edge in the race that will be difficult for his rivals to overcome.

    His appeal adds evidence to an emerging trend in Democratic politics: a disconnect between progressive activists and the rank-and-file Black and Latino voters who they say have the most to gain from their agenda. As liberal activists orient their policies to combat white supremacy and call for racial justice, progressives are finding that many voters of color seem to think about the issues quite a bit differently.

    “Black people talk about politics in more practical and everyday terms,” said Hakeem Jefferson, an assistant professor of political science at Stanford University who studies the political views of Black people. “What makes more sense for people who are often distrustful of broad political claims is something that’s more in the middle.”

    He added: “The median Black voter is not AOC and is actually closer to Eric Adams,” referring to U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.

    It will be less cohesive because CRT is based on the lie of oppressed vs oppressor. This entire "racism" narrative causes people to retreat to their own tribes to defend their group.

    ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! My mouth fell open when I read this excerpt from the linked article:

    "The National Archives' task force on racism claimed in a little-noticed report to the U.S.’s top librarian that the Archives' own Rotunda – which houses the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights – is an example of "structural racism" and that the Founding Fathers and other White, historically impactful Americans are portrayed too positively."

    I can't find the words to express my disgust. If this mindset prevails, our country is indeed doomed.

    Humm, in my time from '88 to '90 I didn't really see an issue. The minority makeup of the military is generally higher than the general US population. Everyone was mixed together and had to work together and did it well. Outside of the occasional redneck from Arkansas I felt like race really wasn't even noticed. Everyone just sort of got along. The Puerto Ricans didn't seem to hang out with anyone but their own, but there wasn't any animosity. At least that was my experience at Ft Hood.

    Being from Tennessee I sure didn't have much experience with minorities. We had one black guy on my HS basketball team as an example. When I attended my first primarily black party at Ft Hood I was introduced to Old English (or Old E as they called it). That night didn't end well for me. :smile1:

    I was educated in my AIT. Living with my two black roommates for months we did just about everything together. On a nightly basis we would wrestle or box in our room to get the energy out. They kept calling each other the N word and I just knew I couldn't say it, but being a bit young and naive I decided to give it a shot because I felt like we were all practically brothers at that point. We were wrestling and out it came. The room went completely silent and I thought I was going to get my *** kicked for real. I apologized and told them why I felt comfortable saying it to which they replied, "you're white, you can't say that". I learned my lesson and I never even thought about doing it again.

    Vol Horn my dad would have said the same. A WWII vet he would always groan at the issues he saw on TV and experienced ‘outside’ the service. One time I remember him saying “just as many bad whites as blacks in the Army and just as many good‘uns”. It was never a problem for him. But he was pretty much raised by a black nanny his early years whom he loved so maybe he was different. It’s strange in today’s circles cause they never had any money but he had a Nanny. Lot of background story here I don’t know just my Grandad was not such a good guy and Grandmother had to work at anything she could get. Tough times in NE Texas.

    What it means (without having read it but based upon other things I've read) is that white people excuse white mass murderers are mentally ill and are not predisposed to murder just because they are white. Meanwhile, white people do not think black people who murder are mentally ill; instead, white people believe that's just the way black people are because they are savages. So white people cannot be blamed for all the shootings; just the shooter. Conversely, black people are all blamed because white people believe that every black person is capable of snapping due to some hard-wired inferior emotional control due to their race.
