Recently a video of Hannah catching a 30 pound catfish went viral,
gaining over 15 million views in 7 days. We were lucky enough to spend
the day with Hannah and learn some catfish noodling tips from her and
her dad Jeff.
Ow! That's about as hard on the eyes that it gets. :)
Now isn’t this rich. Ilhan Omar, the brother marrying, tax cheat and
homewreck who is famous for saying some people did something on 9/11 is
demanding Republicans apologize. Why? Because of the anti-socialism ad that ran during last night’s Democrat debate.
The ad, narrated by Elizabeth Heng exposed the dangers of socialism
that Democrats want to bring to this country. Ilhan Omar is really
triggered! :)
John Beckwith, 83, of Cary, NC, former slave, in 1937. “I reckon dat I
wuz ‘bout nine years old at de surrender…I wuz happy den as I thinks
back of it, until dem Yankees come.”
As part of the Federal Writer’s Project during the Great Depression, the
Roosevelt Administration employed scores of journalists to interview
former slaves and record verbatim (and in dialect) their memories of
slavery. From 1936 to 1938 about 2, 300 former slaves were interviewed,
most of whom were delighted to tell about “slavery times.” In 1941,
these systematically designed interviews were published by state in a
multi-volume series called The Slave Narratives.
The proposed ethnic studies curriculum would teach children that capitalism and father figures are racist.
Just when we thought colleges could not spout loonier ideas, we have a
new one from American University. They hired a professor to teach other
professors to grade students based on their "labor" rather than their
writing ability. The professor that American University hired to teach
that nonsense is Asao B. Inoue, who is a professor at the University of
Washington in Tacoma in interdisciplinary arts and sciences. He is also
the director of the university's writing center. Inoue believes that a
person's writing ability should not be assessed, in order to promote
"anti-racist" objectives. Inoue taught American University's faculty
members that their previous practices of grading writing promoted white
language supremacy. Inoue thinks that students should be graded on the
effort they put into a project.
.@aoc response is the Democratic party in a nutshell. They are more offended by truthful words than the acts of their political ideology that has killed millions of innocent victims. I don't care about @AOC feelings - I care about stopping her lies about the lies of socialism.
Democrat senators currently pushing gun control laws worry
presidential candidate Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke torpedoed any
chance of passage via his insistence on firearm confiscation.
Breitbart News reported
that O’Rourke talked of confiscating firearms during the September 12,
2019, Democrat debate. He said, “Hell yes, we’re going to take your
AR-15.”
During an appearance on MSNBC the next morning, O’Rourke made clear
that handing over AR-15s will be “mandatory” under his plan. Breitbart
News reported that O’Rourke’s push was a game-changer, proving the left’s goal is gun seizure.
In response to a recent article in the National Review by Allen C.
Guelzo, a nullification denier and history professor at Gettysburg
College, and two responding letters to the Editor,1 one “Celticreeler” posted an astute rebuttal you can read here.
The issue in the National Review article and letters is this: Guelzo
denies that States have any right to nullify unconstitutional laws made
by Congress. He looks at Art. VI, clause 2, U.S. Constitution (the “supremacy clause”) which reads,
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof;
and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of
the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land… [emphasis
added]
and concludes that any law made by Congress
is the “supreme” law of the land; and everyone must obey, unless &
until five (5) judges on the supreme Court say they don’t have to. He
claims that only judges have authority to nullify unconstitutional acts of Congress.
Angel Mom Mary Ann Mendoza, who heads the Angel Families organization, has had her posts raising awareness about illegal immigrant crime removed from Facebook as “hate speech.”
Mendoza’s son, 32-year-old police officer Brandon Mendoza, was killed in May 2014 by a drunk illegal alien who was driving the wrong way down a highway in Mesa, Arizona.
This week, Mendoza had two of her Facebook posts from her personal
page removed, with the tech platform claiming that she had violated the
“Community Standards on hate speech.”
In 1967, the US forces in Vietnam faced a major problem. Supplies were
flowing at a prodigious rate from the North to Viet Cong forces in the
South down the Ho Chi Minh trail. The Air Force utilized a fleet of
propeller-driven forward air control (FAC) aircraft to help high-tech
fighters spot targets, but overwhelming losses forced 7th Air Force
leadership to curtail these FAC missions. Still requiring eyes in the
sky, the Air Force tasked then-Major Bud Day to form a top secret
squadron populated with combat-experienced fighter pilots, all of whom
were volunteers, to fly the venerable F-100F in a "Fast FAC" capacity.
Utilizing the call sign "Misty," these individuals pioneered a new array
of tactics to fly fast and low over enemy territory. The dedication to
duty displayed by the Misty FACs is nothing short of legendary. Of the
157 pilots who flew Misty missions, 34 were shot down (two of them
twice), three were captured, and 7 declared MIA. Despite overwhelming
loss rates and constant danger, Misty crews got into their cockpits and
carried out their assigned missions day after day. The tactics they
developed serve as the corner stone for current FAC operations.
