• S.W.I.N.E. Revisited: Students Wildly Indignant about Nearly Everything
    In the 1960's, Salomey traveled to "Boarkley" (Berkeley) to undergo her "boar mitzvah." There she encountered Cartoonist Al Capp's burlesque of the youth movement: S.W.I.N.E. Students Wildly Indignant about Nearly Everything was a parody of campus radicals, specifically the S.D.S. (Students for a Democratic Society). The movement has since morphed into the Marxist far left radicals of today known as Antifa and Black Lives Matter (BLM) which are openly Marxist and extremely violent and oppressive, yet all at the same time, left wing democrats use the old Nazi propaganda tactic of accusing the right of what they themselves are guilty of. The modern American "Progressive" democrat party is the most regressive political party on the planet. Stalin, Lenin, and Hitler would be proud!

    About those radical Republicans:
    Republican President Ulysses S. Grant deployed U.S. troops on October 18, 1871 to combat violence against African Americans. Democrats called white Republicans "radicals" and lynched them along with the blacks. The Tuskegee Institute recorded from 1882-1968, 3,446 blacks and 1,297 whites were lynched - the whites being "radical" Republicans who were caught registering freed black slaves to vote.

    “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." -George Santayana

    The problem is, democrats choose not to remember it and have been attempting to rewrite history since the end of the American Civil War.

    Enter the Democratic Party - The Party of the Ku Klux Klan.

  • The following is my own perception of George Armstrong Custer. I am not asking you to share the way I feel, your thoughts about the man are your own.

    George Armstrong Custer was in no way a hero. The man was a coward. In July 1861 quickly earned recognition for himself with his brilliant direction of his actions at the First Battle of Bull Run. He also seemed to possess a gift for avoiding injury, which he came to call "Custer's luck." (Unfortunately, the men under his command weren't always so lucky, suffering disproportionately high casualties during the war.)

    George Custer would wait until the braves were away from camp to attack killer women, children, and the elderly. General Custer had most of the qualities which made him a first-class asshole.

    Sitting Bull, the revered Lakota chief who had originally wanted peace at Little Bighorn. Custer, however, was determined to fight. Custer wasn't but 18 when he went to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. He arrived in 1857. While intelligent and talented, he dismissed the Academy’s disciplinary system and was a lazy student. He was nearly expelled several times. (in short - a troublemaker). He racked up 726 demerits in just four years – one of the highest amounts in West Point history – and graduated last in his class, a position commonly known as the “goat.”

    Despite his unimpressive record, the U.S. Army desperately needed officers to serve in the newly-begun Civil War. He was commissioned a second lieutenant and based in Washington, D.C. (Washington, D.C. - that alone should tell you something). He took every opportunity to get himself in front of the cameras and newspapermen documenting the war. He loved the public spotlight. He would wear unusual and flamboyant uniforms, which brought him even more attention.

    Ulysses S. Grant removed Custer from command and briefly had him arrested when he tried to return to his troops. after his testimony at a Congressional hearing in Washington, D.C., implicated several members of the administration, including Grant’s brother. Only after several high-ranking generals intervened was Custer allowed to return to his post. Major Marcus Reno and Captain Frederick Benteen were later believed to have played a role in Custer's death by not rushing to his aid at the Little Bighorn. As popular opinion about America’s mistreatment of Native Americans shifted, so to did attitudes about Custer, who remains a highly controversial figure.

  • This is a blatant lie. Otherwise TEXAS, NM, OKLAHOMA WOULD HAVE THIS ALL THE TIME
    The current heat wave blazing through Kansas feedlots has killed an estimated 10,000 head of fat cattle.

    Final death numbers continue to come in, but that early estimate was shared with DTN by livestock experts, who put the geographical center point for those deaths at Ulysses, Kansas.

    DTN calls to feedlots in the area and to ranchers whose branded animals were seen in some privately shared photos of dead cattle were not immediately returned.

    What is known is that leading up to these heartbreaking losses, temperatures in the area were over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, there was humidity, and there was little to no wind to help cool the animals. Temperature readings reported for Ulysses began to exceed the 100-degree mark on June 11. By June 13, the high temperature was reported at 104 degrees, with humidity levels ranging from 18% to 35%. Temperature and humidity levels began to break some on June 14. Just a few days prior to the heat setting in, highs had been in the 80s.

  • WILMER MCLEAN
    Bible Study / Daily Devotional
    Daily Devotions
    Average reading time is about 5 and a half minutes
    AN AMAZING FACT: In the early afternoon on April 9, 1865, Wilmer McLean stood on the front porch of his two-story brick house. General Robert E. Lee arrived first on horseback that day, accompanied by Colonel Charles Marshall. Wil greeted the two Confederate officers and invited them into his parlor. At about 1:30 p.m., General Ulysses S. Grant arrived on horseback. Among his Union officers were Major General George Armstrong Custer, and Captain Robert Todd Lincoln, son of President Lincoln.


    For about an hour and a half, General Lee and General Grant talked until they finally agreed on the terms of surrender for the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia, which, in effect, ended the long, bloody Civil War. While Lee and Grant were conferring, Wil McLean waited outside the house where, we can only surmise, he must have thought about the
    very strange hand of fate that brought this historic event to his home.

    Meeting in Wil’s home was especially unusual because, at the outset of the Civil War in 1861, Wil was a farmer living in northern Virginia with his family. The beginning of the war had struck very close to home. In fact, a cannon ball from the first battle landed in his kitchen. Concerned for the safety of his family, Wil moved them from the war zone to central Virginia and eventually bought a home at Appomattox Court House. The first battle of the Civil War, known as the First Battle of Bull Run, fought on July 21, 1861, took place on Wil McLean’s farm. In one of the strangest and most unusual twists of fate, the Civil War started in Wilmer McLean’s back yard in 1861 and ended in his parlor in 1865!

    In similar fashion, the Bible teaches that the last spot that Jesus’ feet touched the earth when He left—the Mount of Olives—will be the very spot He places them when He arrives with the New Jerusalem to establish His eternal kingdom of peace on this earth.
    KEY BIBLE TEXTS
    And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. Zechariah 14:4

  • April 14, 1865 – John Wilkes Booth shoots President Abraham Lincoln at a play at Ford’s Theater in Washington. Five days earlier, Confederate General Robert E. Lee had surrendered his army to General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House, Virginia. The war was nearly over, although there were still Confederate forces yet to surrender. The president had recently visited the captured Rebel capital of Richmond, and now Lincoln sought a relaxing evening by attending a production of Our American Cousin starring Laura Keene. Ford’s Theater, seven blocks from the White House, was crammed with people trying to catch a glimpse of Grant, who was rumored to be in attendance. The general and his wife had cancelled abruptly for an out-of-town trip. Lincoln occupied a booth above the stage with his wife; Henry Rathbone, a young army officer; and his fiancée, Clara Harris, daughter of New York Senator Ira Harris. The Lincolns arrived late for the comedy, but the president was in a fine mood and laughed heartily during the production. At 10:15, Booth slipped into the box and fired his .44-caliber single-shot derringer into the back of Lincoln’s head. Rathbone rushed Booth, who stabbed the soldier in the shoulder. Booth then leapt from the president’s box to the stage below, breaking his leg as he landed. He shouted, “Sic semper tyrannis!” (“Thus ever to tyrants!”–the Virginia state motto) and ran from the stage. There was a pause, as the crowd initially thought the unfolding drama was part of the production, but a scream from Mrs. Lincoln told them otherwise. The stricken president was carried from the box to a house across the street, where he died the following morning.
