Respect The Flag

Posted on June 10, 2025 by Stella

“When we don’t respect the flag enough to fight for it, we will be the weakest generation.” Jon McNaughton

Full quote:

I painted President Trump picking up a shredded and trampled flag off the football field. He holds a wet cloth in his right hand, as he attempts to clean it.

I respect America. I respect the flag, the anthem, and the President; because he doesn’t back down to those who do not.

When the NFL players decide to kneel as the national anthem was given, I felt sick. That flag represents the vast number of Americans who have sacrificed their lives for our nation. It is about their blood and the sacrifice of many thousands.

If we do not respect the flag enough to fight for what it stands for – liberty, justice, and strength – then we will be the weakest generation. The way Trump called out the NFL for not supporting the standing of the national anthem was an example of how a President should lead, with courage to say and do the right thing regardless of the reaction of others.

More Wisdom from Victor Davis Hanson – Governor Newsom

Posted on June 9, 2025 by Stella

Fort Sumter

Why Is Governor Newsom Going Full Jefferson Davis?

What triggered the American Civil War were state officials who refused to honor federal law and instead boasted of their open defiance of Washington.

That precedent apparently is the incendiary model for the weird, but dangerous recent behavior of an increasingly unhinged California Governor Gavin Newsom.

He is currently supporting the often-violent protestors in Los Angeles and their resistance to federal officials’ enforcement of immigration laws.

Newsom claimed that Trump’s use of ICE to detain those here illegally in the U.S. was “reckless”, “chaotic” and “eroding trust”.

Does he think that his own rhetoric is creating calm and building trust by opposing the lawful enforcement of federal statutes? Or is he following the baleful model of arch-Confederate rebel Jefferson Davis?

The riots happening in LA are not organic or spontaneous

Posted on June 9, 2025 by Stella

My opinion: The people behind these riots (true of most of today’s riots) have one objective: Break down the USA as we know it and love it. The reason isn’t arrest and deportation of illegal aliens. That’s just the excuse for mayhem.

They’re designed to look chaotic to cover up the fact that they’re well funded, exceptionally organized, and carried out by well trained activists using intelligent, highly developed tactics. Here’s a primer:

Why we fly our flag, Old Glory

Posted on June 9, 2025 by Stella

In preparation for Flag Day (June 14), a reminder.

Foreigners often wonder why we Americans feel the need to fly our flag over our  homes. They think it is odd!

Old  Glory  represents  the  freedom  to  pursue  the  life  that  we  imagine.  This  flag  is  a reminder  that  opportunity  and  free  will  as  granted  to  us  by  our  creator  still  exists,  just  as  long  as  we  are  willing  to  stand  up  for  it.

As Harry Truman so famously said:

Thousands of men and women gave their lives so that this flag could fly, so we fly it proudly as a symbol of gratitude for the life that we are so blessed to live.

Thomas Sowell: Law is not a suggestion or an option

Posted on June 8, 2025 by Stella

The insane truth behind LA’s anti-ICE riots. These are attempts to impose their wishes over law. The law is not arbitrary.

Who is behind the Anti-ICE Riots in L.A.?

Posted on June 8, 2025 by Stella

From DataRepublican (small r) on X (Twitter). She’s a genius, and she’s on our side.

Here is the X link to her thread: https://x.com/DataRepublican/status/1931508083127362024

Here is most of the content:

Hundreds took to the streets this weekend: blocking roads, attacking federal officers, even burning flags. But this wasn’t “spontaneous outrage.”

This was organized. Funded. Coordinated.

Here’s a breakdown of the groups, the money, and the people pulling the strings.

Patience as I assemble the thread and verify information in real time.

A number of NGOs have been implicated in this. Foremost is Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights or CHIRLA, and the photos of signs show they were printed by PSLWEB / Party for Socialism and Liberation.
