Why Aren’t Americans Interested in History?

 

Posted Nation Above All yesterday which alludes to some of the subject matter.

The study of history cannot be neatly contained behind the tall foreboding doors of an ivory tower nor swept under the rugs of dusty corner offices housing stacks of paper. It bleeds into other fields as it serves to inform both individual and group identity. It gives context to the current world and helps one understand their place in it culturally, socially, and spiritually. The modern disinterest in studying history has more to do with a lack of identification with the subject matter presented than it does an actual disdain for stories of the past.

You mean they are just now finding votes in Florida and Georgia – but the Election was on Tuesday? Let’s blame the Russians and demand an immediate apology from President Putin!

Rick Scott was up by 50,000+ votes on Election Day, now they “found” many votes and he is only up 15,000 votes. “The Broward Effect.” How come they never find Republican votes?

NYC 9/11 Top Cop Bernard Kerik: FBI Must Classify ANTIFA as a ‘Domestic Terror Group’

 

 “The thing that frightens me more than these groups doing this is the deafening silence of the senior Democratic leaders in this country. Everybody should be outraged. Every political figure in this country should be outraged by this behavior. Everybody should be calling for it to stop [and] doing whatever they can to make it stop. Yet on the left, on the Democratic side, you have a deafening silence. Nobody is doing a damn thing to stop this. … There are people in government that don’t have a problem with this.”

Former New York City Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik told Breitbart News Tonight Thursday evening that the FBI should classify Antifa as a “domestic terror group.” He offered his remarks in an interview with SiriusXM hosts Rebecca Mansour and Joel Pollak.

Kerik’s comments were made during a discussion of left-wing activists threatening and intimidating Tucker Carlson’s family on Wednesday night outside of the Carlson family’s home in Washington, D.C.

Kerik said, “In the most minimal definition of terrorism, it’s the unlawful use of violence and intimidation — especially against civilians — in pursuit of political aims. Antifa is a domestic terror group. I strongly believe that the FBI and the Department of Justice should classify them as such.”

(Schools)Unbelievable

Carver Heights School Wayne County NC is about to be taken over by State of NC, because of failing grades! All they will talk about is pumping more tax dollars into a school that continually fails! The real problem is students and lack of parents participation! No amount of money will fix any school! Until respect is recognized and students and parents are accountable for their on failures, it will only get worse!

– 46K votes found day after election

– people caught on tape loading ballots into rented truck

Could Papadopoulos Blow the Russia Hoax Wide Open?

Via Billy

 

Dan Bongino recently conducted a fascinating interview with George Papadopoulos. The most convenient way to digest the interview is at Jeff Carlson’s blog, which has a link to the interview on Bongino’s radio show as well as a full transcript of the interview. What emerges from the interview is, in my view, convincing evidence that Papadopoulos was, in Chuck Ross’s words, the target of an “FBI sting.”

Actually, that characterization doesn’t even go far enough. What seems clear at this point is that the FBI — representing the US Government and as an agency of the Department of Justice — targeted Papadopoulos and attempted to manipulate him into appearing to be a vehicle for Russian influence in the Trump campaign. The FBI had no reason to believe that Papadopoulos had any connections to Russian officials before they targeted him. The fact is, Papadopoulos’s academic background and previous experience was in what could be broadly termed “Eastern Mediterranean” politics — Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Israel. Moreover, in his published writings he actually evinced a degree of hostility to Russian influence in that region.

Trump: I am sending lawyers to Florida to 'expose the fraud'

 

Via Ryan"I have done enough research to know that the Democratic Party has deep connections to organized crime, and a "black budget" for "black campaigning" which is quite large. Arranging fake ballots is quite expensive and they probably have a bag of dirty tricks in several battle ground states, and they follow a protocol, only using the ballots when they can get within certain close margins of victory. Sometimes the really close, tight races are predictable and the past is a prologue to the future."


President Trump said Friday he is sending lawyers to Florida to “expose the fraud” in Broward County, Fla., as vote counting there continues.

“As soon as Democrats sent their best Election stealing lawyer, Marc Elias, to Broward County they miraculously started finding Democrat votes. :) Don’t worry, Florida - I am sending much better lawyers to expose the FRAUD!” Trump said, though he offered no details of any fraud

What Truly Caused the Pogrom of 1938

Via Jonathan

Everyone knows what happened 80 years ago, November 9-10, 1938 in Germany.  The unprecedented pogrom of the Jews got the name Kristallnacht – "Night of Broken Glass."  Today, we are well aware of the approximate number of murdered Jews, destroyed businesses, and burned synagogues.  The formal reason for the pogrom was the murder of the German diplomat Ernst vom Rath in Paris by the Jewish teenager Herschel Grynszpan on November 7.

Unfortunately, few people know about the true causes of the pogrom.

Who created the conditions under which a mass pogrom of Jews in the Third Reich could even take place?

CNN's Claim That Sarah Sanders Pushed 'Actual Fake News' About Acosta Backfires

In other words, all CNN ended up doing was making sure that more people saw footage of Acosta's embarrassing behavior and highlighting their own paranoia about the imagined machinations of the White House. That's a terrible day — and it just keeps getting worse:

The war in Washington will not end until the presidency of Donald Trump ends. Everyone seems to sense that now.

This is a fight to the finish.

A postelection truce that began with Trump congratulating House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi — “I give her a great deal of credit for what she’s done and what she’s accomplished” — was ancient history by nightfall.

Progressive Candidate Tim Canova on Broward County Ballot Fiasco: I Warned For Months That Brenda Snipes is a ‘Serial Election Rigger’

 

 

Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R) is suing Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes over her office withholding records on how many ballots have been counted and how many more votes remain uncounted in Broward County. He has also ordered the police to seize all of the untallied ballots in Broward and Palm Beach.

This story is no surprise to Tim Canova, the progressive who ran as an Independent to challenge Debbie Wasserman-Schultz after a primary that he believes was rigged in her favor.

Nation Above All

Via Carl

 

“Tổ Quốc Trên Hết” [“Nation Above All”] was a slogan of the defunct and much maligned Republic of South Vietnam, while the Socialist North rallied their populace with “Chống Mỹ Cứu Nước” [“Fight the Americans, Save the Nation”]. During the war, both Vietnamese sides stressed their nationalist credentials while discrediting their opponent as a foreign puppet. The common Vietnamese soldier, then, didn’t fight and die for capitalism, communism, democracy, internationalism, universal brotherhood, America, Russia or China, but only for Vietnam, for only nationalism could justify so much sacrifice, pain and endurance.
