On June 19, 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas, declaring enslaved people in Texas free more than two years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. This began the holiday now known as Juneteenth. As you celebrate this year, we encourage taking time to reflect and learn about the history and importance of this holiday.

The police force in the USA is an army. That's the army that the founding fathers of The United States of America tried to prevent with the Constitution. the 4th 5th and 2nd amendment exemplifies this fact. As President of Intensity Technologies my goal is to protect the citizens of the USA. #policy #policymaking #politics #entrepreneurs

As President Reagan reminded us, government is not the solution to our problems, government is the problem. Our greatness has always depended on individual freedom to be, to do, and to become. My vision for America calls for a return to excellence through a restoration of constitutional limits on government power; a reduction in the size and scope of government in favor of individual freedom of choice; maximum defense for freedom and free enterprise; and a ridding of indoctrination from our schools and our military. We can fulfill America’s rightful destiny by re-establishing freedom and prosperity. #SaveAmerica #SaveVirginia #RonaldReagan

Important analysis in recent The Wall Street Journal article by the always insightful Owen West. Two takeaways for me were: (1) Our military service leadership should be careful to lead in an apolitical manner. (2) America needs to find more ways to come together across the spectrum to increase love of country, what it stands for, and importance of service to it.

How do you describe tyrannical democrats vis-a-vis military regimes? Democracy, is generally agreed as the "best evil" as a system of governance. In Africa, as evidenced in some countries, leaders have successfully exploited constitutional loopholes to their advantage. It's all about their personal ambitions and not their civic duties. But alas, the Constitutions of some countries provide them that room to operate. Military regimes of yore may have been bloodier but we see some "peaceful" ones of late which appear to have men of conscience than the democrats we voted for. Is it not men of conscience we lack? Or we prefer a fancy and globally acclaimed system which has only shielded unscrupulous men? The men of conscience are those who can build the systems that will run effectively.

Juneteenth On June 19, 1865, Galveston, Texas, held a momentous celebration of freedom. Despite the Civil War's conclusion on April 9, 1865, slavery persisted in various states, with Texas being the final Confederate state to abolish the practice. The 135th US Colored Troops, which included my great-grandfather, played a pivotal role in paving the way for General Sherman's journey to Texas.

IS TUBERVILLE'S MILITARY BLOCK PART OF THE ONGOING COUP ATTEMPT? What if Trump says HE is going to fill all those officer's positions, including 2 positions on the Joint Chiefs of Staff, with people loyal to him as part of his "Deep State" purge? TUBERVILLE BLOCKS MILITARY DESPITE EXHAUSTION CLAIMS This is why you don't elect a FOOTBALL COACH to run the government. HE IS THROWING OUR MILITARY UNDER THE BUS FOR SOMETHING AMERICANS OVERWHELMINGLY SUPPORT: WOMEN'S HEALTH INCLUDING ABORTION. What's next? Seriously? CONSIDER THIS 1. Trump knows he can't beat Biden. He even said, "don't bother voting, we got plenty of votes." (verbatim), because the plan is not to win. 2. A second large scale denial misinformation campaign will be coming from Trump sycophants after the next election: just like 2020. 3. Trump is going to "root out" what he calls the deep state. 4. Trump has said General Milly is treasonous and "deserves death" (verbatim) for calling what Trump did on January 6th what it was: a coup attempt. 5. Trump said on the first day of his presidency he will take control of the military for use on American soil against "protesters". 6. How long before the military is used to suppress the "caravan of immigrants" - "bringing disease into our country" - and "polluting our blood?" - ALL Trump verbatim. 7. How long before a peaceful march becomes a "left wing Antifa attack" LIKE HE CALLED JANUARY 6TH? #maga #coup #trump #cult #insurrection #military #sedition #treason #fascism #espionage #tuberville #football #government #usmilitary

Capitalism, eventually becomes a Kleptocracy with unbridled Greed.... While Morals and Values become meaningless. Reality is that there are approx 3000 billionaires, approx 1000 global political leaders, of which 535 are in the US Congress. Then there are another 1000 influential Lobbyists and people in the Military Industrial Complex...making large contributions to the politicians for political favors. These roughly 5000 people, are above the law. They decide what policies are put in place for the rest of 8 billion of us to follow. They also decide who will fight the next wars, with our son's and daughter's, for their profit and power.
