What these dangerous idiots do not understand is most people prefer freedom. They do not trust centralization and big government. They want choice and variety.
If the GOP does not blow it, as they all too often do, the tide is going to swamp Democrats and wash Biden out to sea like Hamas and Palestinians want to do to Israelis.

It’s here that you can experience the same views that a 24-year-old Theodore Roosevelt found when he arrived in 1883, determined to kill a buffalo and experience the American West, which he understood was quickly disappearing. He instead invested in two ranches and fell in love with the badlands of the Little Missouri River Valley. Within a year, Roosevelt was back, stricken with grief by the deaths of his mother and wife on the same day and determined to find purpose in his life by shedding the frailty of his poor health, the deep depression he had fallen into and the softness of city life which had earned the somewhat snobbish T.R. with the nickname “Dude” among the locals. Ed O’Keefe, CEO of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library which just broke ground here this past summer, explains that because of how much the Dakota Territory shaped the man and the president, it became clear that if ever a Theodore Roosevelt presidential library would be built, it had to be here. “When Theodore Roosevelt came here in 1884 for the second time, he is abjectly depressed. He will call it ‘black care.’ Others in the family will say he’s blue. Only his daughter, Alice, will actually use the D word and accurately say, ‘Dad was depressed,’” explained O’Keefe. It is in the Badlands that T.R. found solace and lived what he would later call “the strenuous life,” and it would profoundly shape him. He wrote later, “I never would have been president if it had not been for my experiences in North Dakota.” And it was here “that the romance of my life began,” Roosevelt said. The place to build O’Keefe said from the time of T.R.’s death in 1920 and the establishment of the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Association, there was always intent by Congress to establish a memorial in the east and a memorial in the west. Roosevelt himself said, “I am as much a westerner as I am an easterner.” O’Keefe says people are often stunned to learn that there had never been a presidential library for the man both Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) call their favorite president, a man who served from 1901 to 1908 as a Republican, failed in his infamous Bull Moose third party run in 1912, and is seen by many as the man who ushered the country from an agrarian society into the Industrial Age. “The reason is the presidential library system wasn’t established until Franklin Delano Roosevelt,” O’Keefe said. “However, because Congress established the memorial association act, it served as an official/unofficial way to build a presidential library over a hundred years later to one of the most enduring figures in the American imagination.” Medora, Population 125 Everywhere you look here in the tiny town of Medora, Roosevelt is omnipresent. From the colorful Rough Riders Hotel to the gleaming bronze statue of T.R. standing sentinel outside the Town Hall Theater, people here embrace his presence in their lives, flaws and all. O’Keefe, a native Dakotan, explains that the library will open in three years, on July 4, 2026, the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. “We hope that Medora, North Dakota, and the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library will be a star in that nationwide patriotic celebration,” he said. North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum explains the move to create a T.R. presidential library got real 10 years ago, as a digital library to be housed at Dickinson State University with scanned copies of Roosevelt items. “By 2019, I had signed legislation committing $50 million from the state’s oil and gas revenues fund, as long as the library backers could raise $100 million by the end of 2020,” Burgum said in an interview with the Post-Gazette. The backers met the moment. Two years later, a group of Roosevelt family descendants purchased the land out of their own pocket from the Forest Service for $81,000, and in June ground was already being moved to start the project. Theatrical story-telling This is not your father’s presidential library. “We have a unique opportunity to embrace technology and do immersive, almost theatrical storytelling. T.R.’s life is an incredible adventure story, and we want people to feel that when they come here,” O’Keefe said. “People will see artifacts that have been spread out amongst 70 different institutions across the country, many of which have never seen the light of day,” he said of the planned exhibits. “We want them to be there for people to see and understand and tell the stories of history. But we also have an opportunity to immerse people in the stories of Theodore Roosevelt, for them to have the opportunity to charge up San Juan Hill, to be in the recreation of the Elkhorn Ranch, to be in Roosevelt’s boyhood home and see a sickly boy with an imagination and curiosity, making up for the body that won’t allow him to go out and explore the wider world, to be surrounded by the words in ‘The Man in the Arena’ speech and be inspired — as LeBron James is to this day — by those words,” he said. Most presidential libraries tell the first draft of history from the president’s perspective. This library has the advantage of time — they know the enduring accomplishments of T.R. and their effect on the nation, if not the world. T.R.’s great-great grandson Kermit Roosevelt III, a professor of constitutional law at the University of Pennsylvania Law School and one of the family members who sits on the board of the library, said when T.R. came to the Badlands, he just threw himself into the life of a cowboy. Feeling alive again “It’s physically challenging, and the Dakotas are a physically challenging place, and their weather is extreme. I think he liked that,” Roosevelt said. “There was a challenge to fight, and something to do. I think it made him feel alive again, but then I think he also realized that there is a beauty and a peace and a restorative power in nature.” He said the library experiences will reflect T.R.’s belief in the importance of preserving America’s wild spaces: “He realized what nature has to offer people, and he thought that the natural beauty of America was a treasure that should be passed down from generation to generation and preserved for each new generation of Americans.” ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ this Tik Tok is spot on. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Both Israel and America need to send Iran a message. +++ America needs to bomb Iran - opinionHow do you deal with Iran when it intends to take out Israel with a nuclear bomb? There's only one way this can be prevented: A preemptive strike on Iran by America.  Nuclear mushroom cloud (illustrative).
Israel experienced a preemptive attack upon its nation, which was the worst massacre in its history by Iranian proxy Hamas, carried out with Iranian arms and funded by Iran. It opened Pandora's box, forcing Israel to fight a war for its survival, knowing that without it, there would be many more attacks like October 7 or worse. The new twenty-first-century wars are proxy wars, but they are also media wars. Israel cannot win a media war. It's only a question of time before the United Nations global club of Zionist haters will turn international public opinion against Israel with the assistance of the media. Israel cannot win an economic war. It's a tiny country the size of New Jersey, with its residents from the north and south displaced and its citizens at war. The economic damage to the country is massive. Iran has a much bigger proxy in Lebanon with more than double the terrorists than Hamas has and more than 10 times the missiles than Hamas has, and much more sophisticated. Iran has been waging a war against the "Little Satan" Israel for decades. October 7 was Israel's Pearl Harbor, in which Iran decided to move to a much greater extreme. Iran has been waging a war against the "Great Satan" America for decades also. On October 23, 1983, I preached the gospel to the Marines in Beirut, giving them the Christmas gift of a small Bible. A young soldier, 18, from Worcester, Massachusetts, asked me if I could send a message to his mom. So, I had my camera crew tape it. He said, "Dear Mom, I know you've been praying for me. I won't be coming home for Christmas. But I have a Christmas gift for you. I've just accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. Merry Christmas, Mom." That Marine and 240 others were dead in the morning. I slept on the beach that night. Mike Evans Iran has attacked US troops over 40 times since October 7Since then, Iran has conducted ongoing attacks on numerous countries in a long-term effort to exert influence in the region. A 2021 State Department report observed that in that year alone, "Iran pursued or supported terrorist attacks against Israeli targets in 2021, including a thwarted January plot to attack an Israeli embassy in East Africa, a January bomb attack outside the Israeli embassy in New Delhi for which the Indian government said the IRGC-QF was responsible, and a disrupted attempt to attack an Israeli businessman in Cyprus." According to a CBS News report, the United States presently has the USS Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group in the Red Sea south of Israel, including an array of weapons and 5,000 sailors. The US also has a nuclear power Ohio-class submarine in the area, the Ford Carrier Strike Group in the Mediterranean Sea, which includes three ballistic missile defense ships and four additional warships in the Mediterranean. In addition, the Pentagon has deployed 1,200 additional troops to the Middle East since October 7. The forces are a deterrent for protecting 45,000 US service members and contractors throughout the Middle East. Iran has attacked US troops over 40 times since October 7. A reported 56 US military personnel have been injured. The US has responded with three sets of strikes so far in Syria. with airstrikes in Syria, with more likely to come. Everyone is worrying about where this could lead. The reality is that there is no question where this will lead. It's only a matter of time until Iran's more powerful proxy is authorized to attack Israel fully. Hezbollah, since October 7, has fired over 1,000 rockets into Israel. Six IDF soldiers and three Israeli civilians have been killed so far. This will put Israel's back up against a wall. In every Israeli Air Force barracks, there is a picture they have to pass before leaving. The picture is a picture of Auschwitz and the railroad tracks with the words, "We, the Israeli Air Force pilots, fly in the skies over the camp of atrocities. But we've risen from the ashes of the millions of victims, and we carry their silent cry. We salute their courage and pledge to serve as the defenders of the Jewish people and the State of Israel." The Brigadier General who hosted me that day, Tomer Bar, wrote in the picture, "The voice of the thunder was in the heaven. The earth trembled and shook" Psalm 28:19. October 7 flushed the smoke of Auschwitz into the soul of the nation of Israel, creating trauma that Israel has never experienced and waking them up to a stark reality. A lot of Israelis were peaceniks. In the kibbutz, where I was invited by the foreign minister of Israel, Eli Cohen, as he hosted the Foreign Minister of Ireland and other dignitaries, many Israelis were burned alive, beheaded, and raped. America's facing a presidential election in 2024. It was once a famous saying, "It's the economy, stupid." Now, the reality is that the priority is Iran. "It's Iran, stupid." Israel is going to have to face an Iran terror state that will have an atomic bomb before the next presidential election in November 2024. If Hitler had an atomic bomb, the world would be speaking German. Iran is a terrorist state driven by Mullahs with an obsession to usher in the Mahdi, the twelfth descendant of Muhammad, through an apocalypse, believing that the moment the apocalypse happens, and he is resurrected, the entire world will bow down and become an Islamic caliphate. They boldly said their intentions of what they were doing to Israel. Iran's supreme leader has called Israel a "cancerous tumor" that "will undoubtedly be uprooted and destroyed." It's not a question of if. It's a question of when Israel will be forced to attack Iran, but that apocalyptic date has been pushed up because of October 7. Israel is faced with an existential dilemma. Iran has a partner now, Russia, and, for that matter, China also. With Russia, Iran's partnership was formalized over the drones that they sent to Russia to use in the war with Ukraine. A head Israel general and intelligence leader told me off the record that Russia has agreed to assist Iran with its nuclear program. They have also agreed to provide a nuclear umbrella for Iran, with planes flying over Iranian airspace like they have in Syria. This would make it virtually impossible for Israel to go to war against Iran in light of its nuclear program. What are Israel's options? The only window they have is to deal with Iran before the umbrella is in the sky and before Iran has an atomic bomb. But how do you deal with Iran when it intends to take out Israel with a nuclear bomb? Another Iranian proxy, the Houthi rebels in Yemen, have also joined in the war against Israel. The group fired a medium-range ballistic missile toward Israel last month, with the Israel Defense Forces intercepting it with its Arrow air defense system. It marked the first time a missile had been destroyed from space, adding to outstanding technological military achievements by the Israeli military. During the Yom Kippur War, when Golda Meir was faced with the possibility of losing, Israel reportedly opened its nuclear silos for US satellites to observe. This caused an instant reaction from the United States in assisting Israel. If the US continues to appease Iran with what they call a proportional response, Israel will be forced into an apocalyptic dilemma. How do you stop Iran from wiping Israel off the map with a nuclear bomb? It could be that Israel will be forced to do the unthinkable and authorize the Samson Option against Iran as a preemptive strike on Iran to save the State of Israel, in a decision similar to President Harry Truman's move to drop an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, on August 6, 1945, and three days later on Nagasaki, to help end World War II. US should strike IranThere's only one way this can be prevented, and that is if the US courageously has a preemptive strike on Iran itself, destroying all the oil refineries and ports for shipping. This could be done over a very short period. Iran would have minimal capability to confront the US. If they attempted to do so, the US has the power to bomb Iran into the Stone Age, and they know that. In essence, the US could, in 72 hours, bankrupt Iran by destroying its ports and oil refineries. Iran has made $10 billion off the US under the Biden administration. An attack would stop these finances from promoting terror, and the people of Iran would have the power to overthrow the government. Another option would be to attack Kharg Island. This would send a signal to Iran of what is to come if they do not back down. The Kharg Island oil terminal reportedly exports 80% of the country's daily 2.2 million barrels. The US needs to bankrupt Iran and its terror state to prevent an apocalyptic crisis that is on the horizon and to send a signal to any would-be terror.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Why Trump? +++ You've been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoons. Hundreds of rabid, messy, mean raccoons have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately. You call the city, 4 different exterminators, but nobody can handle the job. But there is this one guy and he guarantees you to get rid of them, so you hire him. You don't care if the guy smells, you don't care if the guy swears, you don't care if he's an alcoholic, you don't care how many times he's been married, you don't care if he voted for Obama, you don't care if he has a plumber's crack, you simply want those raccoons gone! You want your problem fixed! He's the guy. He's the best. Period ! Here's why we want Trump, yes he's a bit of an ass, yes, he's an egomaniac, but we don't care. The country is a mess because politicians suck, the Republicans and Democrats can be two-faced & gutless, and illegals are everywhere. We want it all fixed! We don't care that Trump is crude, we don't care that he insults people, we don't care that he once was friendly with Hillary, we don't care that he has changed positions, we don't care that he's been married 3 times, we don't care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O'Donnell, we don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslin terrorist. This country is weak, bankrupt, our enemies are making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegals, we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo, and Hasid is a special group with special rights to a point where we don't even recognize the country we were born and raised in; "AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED" and Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want. We're sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, Republican Party, and sick of illegals. We just want this thing fixed. Trump may not be a saint, but he doesn't have lobbyist money holding him, he doesn't have political correctness restraining him, all you know is that he has been very successful, a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he's also not a politician, he's not a cowardly politician. And he says he'll fix it. And, we believe him because he is too much of an egotist to be proven wrong or looked at and called a liar. Also, we don't care if the guy has bad hair. We just want those raccoons gone, out of our house, NOW. You are welcome to pass this on. I feel this is why thousands of people who haven't voted in 25 years are getting involved. The raccoons have got to go. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
