Lara Logan: The War Against Humainty

Attention: Reader Discretion Advised. This section contains information that may be distressingly truthful to some readers.

 

Lara Logan (@laralogan) appeared on yesterday’s X Space (FREEDOM FRIDAY – Campaign To #StopTheWHO) led by Bill Elmore (@BillEllmore) and Dr. Kat Linley (@KLVeritas). Thank you to the organizers for the most legendary and informative X Space gathering ever.

What was supposed to be a short introduction to her experiences in the investigative journalism field turned into a legendary, single-blow, 40-minute delivery about how recent events tie together—with COVID, January 6, the state of independent journalism, the border crisis, child trafficking, global trafficking networks, media bias, technological control, ideological struggle—and why this is the last curtain call for action for every one of us. Her delivery was one of the most impressive flow states of information delivery that I have witnessed. Therefore, I’m sharing the transcript below, with the assumption that since the broadcast was public, so is the data contained herein.

The text below may contain transcription errors, but it is intended to be presented as close to the original raw delivery as possible.

Lara Logan on May 24, 2024.

“Okay, so I’ve been a journalist for more than 35 years. Sixteen years as the chief foreign correspondent and correspondent for 60 Minutes at CBS. I worked at NBC and ABC. They loved me until I reported on Benghazi honestly and went outside of the accepted narrative. And then they came for me, and they haven’t stopped ever since.

But I’ve learned how to really not care. I mean, I’m only human, so it’s not that it has zero effect on me, but honestly, these days it has close to zero effect. What I do is map it out so that I can understand the nature of the threat and where it’s coming from. And I have to say that I agree with Liz, this is a beginning. It’s not an end state. And that’s what I would really urge people to understand.

There are a lot of people out there who say, ‘Well, I don’t like the way things are going, but what can I do about it?’ You know what I mean? Or, ‘I just I’m hoping that if I do everything right, and you know, I didn’t go to the Capitol on January 6, and I didn’t vaccinate my kids or whatever,’ you know, people just think that somehow they can stand on the side. It literally, if you can picture, you’re on the banks of a river, and America is drowning, and you’re just like, ‘Okay, so I see it drowning. But if I stay here, I’m safe, and maybe someone else will come to save it.’

I would say we have a limited window of time. Hope is not a strategy. You’ve got to do more than hope. And Trump is just a life raft. Even if he gets into office, which would be, you know, take something of a miracle given the extent of the fraud and everything that goes along with it. This deal is already underway, obviously. So I would just say that even if he were to get into office, there’s a robust plan to make this country ungovernable in his time, in his tenure, and to prevent him from bringing accountability. And I think the entire thing can be boiled down into three words: accountability, not amnesty.

You know, almost all of it [illegal immigation] is funded through NGOs, either by the United Nations or the US government. You’d be shocked to understand it. I would urge everybody to follow Tara Rodas. She’s a whistleblower within the Inspector General’s office, a lifelong Democrat, married to a man from El Salvador, and speaks fluent Spanish even though she’s like this five-foot, you know, middle-aged blonde mama. And Tara went down and volunteered on the border. She answered the call from the Biden administration to go and help with the border and was just shocked by what she found. But what makes Tara interesting and particularly important is that she’s probably the only whistleblower I’ve ever known in history who has not been fired. And that’s because she was not actually working for the Inspector General’s office when she stumbled across the reality on the border. And she is meticulous because she has a history in the Inspector General’s office. So what she has been documenting is how the government is trafficking children, really for the benefit of the cartels, in the worst multinational criminal operations in the world.

I mean, the most powerful and the wealthiest, right? Because you’ve got, for people who think the Mexican cartels are just, you know, ‘Oh, it’s just the drug cartel in Mexico.’ No, you know, they’re in 54 countries. And cartels are in 48 countries and so on. These are global operations and for reasons that defy any kind of morality, logic, or decency. I just have no words for it. This administration is assisting them in their operations, and I am very passionate about it because I know what the reality looks like.

It’s one thing to discuss it or it’s kind of at arm’s length. But when you talk about 85,000 missing unaccompanied minors that the federal government has no idea where they went and admits that they have no idea where they went, you don’t know how many more there are beyond that. And that’s just in one fiscal year, right? 2022 to 2023. And so when you start to delve into what happens to those missing children, and you do what Tara has done, which is document and literally trace them, or you’ve got an MS-13 gang member who is a known sex trafficker, who is sponsoring kids, who is literally approved as a sponsor by the Biden administration to sponsor unaccompanied minors, who, by the way, are only supposed to be coming to this country to reunite with their families, so they shouldn’t need sponsors. They shouldn’t need to go into foster care in the United States because they’re supposed to have family here. That’s the reason they’re granted an exemption to immigration law in the first place. But most of them are not going to families. And what Tara and her coworkers found was that you’ve got 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 kids going to one person at the same address, as you know, two or three other people sponsors, and there are 20, 30, 40, 50, 100 kids going to each of those sponsors. So you’ve got hundreds of kids going to one apartment in the state of Texas. Well, obviously, that is a trafficking operation.

And I will just tell you from my time in Mexico with Mexican investigators and others, that the average length of time that a child survives when they are trafficked for sex is two years, and death is merciful because technology has enabled the worst people on Earth to find their home and their tribe and unite these people and elevate them and enrich them and empower them. So you will have, I don’t know, 50, 100 pedophiles around the world participating in the mass rape and torture of a three-year-old child and directing how that child has to be tortured. You have entire genres of pornography called hurt core, which is sadistic pornography that is proliferating now, where for example, someone who has a fetish for blood will cut certain veins in the child and then they create what’s called a blood show as they bleed and raise the children to death. And we’re not talking now about the average age of a trafficked child. It has dropped now from children to teenagers to infants, toddlers, to now newborn babies that they do this to.

And so one of the reasons I’m glad you asked about this and forgive me this [X Space] is because I know that this is about COVID. But when you look at these things in isolation, I’m afraid that you don’t see the whole picture. And I’m pretty sure there’s a lot of people in this space that connect those dots, and you start to understand that the fentanyl crisis is not in isolation. It’s drug warfare that has been waged since the Opium Wars. The Chinese learned a very harsh lesson in drug warfare from the British. That’s how they lost Taiwan, and they’ve never recovered. So you know, you have the Chinese starting the fentanyl crisis. You’ll often see today people say, ‘Oh, well, the CCP is running the fentanyl in America.’ They’re not. They farmed it out to the Mexican cartels.

So how is that connected to the trafficking? Or when you open the border because you have open border ideologues in the government, you have now opened the border to everyone: transnational criminal enterprises, sex trafficking, drug trafficking, arms trafficking, money laundering, everything, right? You’ve opened it to everything. Well, how is that relevant to the WHO(1)? Well, I’ll tell you how, because the policy that the open border ideologues are implementing is the exact policy that was entrenched at the United Nations in the Global Compact on Migration(2), where they made migration a human right. That’s where they removed the word ‘illegal’ from the international lexicon on migration.

What was one of the first things Biden did when he came into office? So you might not notice it, but I noticed it because I know what the Global Compact on Migration says. So when Biden removed the word ‘illegal’ from the language of Border Patrol, Customs and Border Protection, ICE, immigration enforcement, law enforcement, Health and Human Services, I mean, you name it, he banned it from the lexicon of the federal government. So now you’re no longer allowed to talk about illegal immigrants. Well, why was that? Because they will begin implementing the Global Compact on Migration.

So right now you have everybody kicking and screaming about the WHO’s Pandemic Treaty (3). But you’re already halfway there on migration because this administration has never talked about a crisis at the border because they are implementing the Global Compact, which is a globalist policy that they have placed above sovereignty, above US law, etc. And they now talk only about regular and irregular flows of migration. So, for them, they are now implementing what they already have in the digital realm, which is a world without borders, without laws, because there are very few laws that govern the digital realm.

Anti-trust legislation is not applied to big tech. There’s no digital Bill of Rights. You don’t own your own image there. They’re using that digital world which already dominates so much of our lives and dictates so much of what happens in the real world. Things that we don’t even know whether they’re real or not. Those things are all interconnected. There’s no escaping them. And if you don’t see how they relate to each other, then you miss the bigger picture, which is, of course, the next step from that digital realm is right into digital currency, which is a control system as well as a global pandemic policy, which is an extension of the passport, digital health passport, etc.

So we’re moving into a Marxist-type system of control. But the difference that the world has never ever seen before. The part that I believe people underestimate is that technology will empower and enable that in a manner and on a scale that we have never seen before.

So why does Obama say we shouldn’t have said defund the police? He didn’t say we shouldn’t defund the police; he said we shouldn’t have said it because it put people off. But why do they want to defund the police? Well, because the technology will be the police. You’ll be geo-fenced, you’ll be controlled, there’ll be no private ownership of anything. You will no longer have purchasing power. You won’t even have a digital CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency). That’s just a stepping stone to where you’re going. These are control mechanisms just the way that a digital health passport is a control mechanism.

In addition to that, the world’s resources, how this relates to climate is that climate [Climate Change narrative] is needed. How are you going to store all that data? If any of you have ever seen a data center, you need to see it. Look it up online or go find one and go look at it. Because you will start to understand the scale of the data collection in the world, how much water and electricity it takes to keep that stable, how all the backup systems they have to have and all the water that is required, and the security that they have it under. I’ve seen it with my own eyes in the Nevada desert. It’s like nothing you’ve ever seen. It’s unbelievable. And that’s just what’s out there and that’s visible. And they’re working all the time on reducing the size of metadata so that they can store more and more data because there aren’t enough rare earth minerals currently identified worldwide to power the artificial intelligence future that they envisage for us.

So forgive me if I’m boring you, but this is a war against humanity.

And if you get caught up in Democrat versus Republican, you’re just, honestly, you’re giving them the greatest advantage they could hope for on the battlefield. Because that’s exactly where they want you. They don’t want you to see that we’re really looking at a war against humanity. And a war against humanity is not humanity for humanity’s sake because we’re so important. It’s because we are created in the image of God. And whether you believe in God or don’t believe in God, it doesn’t really matter, because you can’t change what is. The truth is the world did not create itself. You know, that’s just the reality. And so, I know many people recognize the spiritual nature of this war, and I know there are some people perhaps who don’t see that.

But what I would say to you is that when you look at COVID, there are so many things about COVID that are now self-evident. I agree with Liz that nobody who said, you know, the unvaccinated should not be treated in ERs and you know, all of that, all of what they were doing, I don’t think they should be given a free pass because there was ample information for everybody to know and to stand up.

And there’s no question that this is not an end state for them. We’re on a path, if you listen to Yuval Noah Harari, the psychotic Israeli history professor who wrote the book *Sapiens* and *Homo Deus*when he talks about COVID being important because it actually ushered in the era of mass surveillance, surveillance under the skin, and the digital age in which we are the product.

So, and that means, whatever part of us they need, so whether it’s your compliance they need or your body parts, and that’s not unrealistic. Or your manpower, because they have yet to create, they talk all the time about self-sustaining and sustainability, but the only thing on Earth that is self-sustaining, is life, because we didn’t create it. And no matter what they say, everything that they try to replicate in laboratories and all the rest of it, it’s all fake. All of it is fake. It’s not real. And their entire ideology is based on a mass delusion. And I’m just not going to participate.

PART II

That’s why they keep saying there’s a climate crisis because they want to preserve the climate, the Earth. They want to preserve it for their digital army, for their army of robots, their AI, and all the rest of it. And by the way, there are the backups in all of those data centers, right? And the cooling systems. So everything has to be cooled 24/7. So they go to the desert because there’s space, but then it’s so hot. So now they’ve got all these constant cooling systems, and they have all the backup systems, you know, and so it’s endless amounts of natural resources. So when they say the Earth is running out of natural resources, it’s not for us. It’s not because of us. Because when God created us, He created the Earth in absolute harmony, in perfect harmony. There’s all the food we could ever need. There’s all the space we could ever need. But what there isn’t, is if you’re going to create another race that outnumbers the human race, and you’re going to create this race out of machines and robots that have to be constantly recreated, right? All this stuff that AI is going to run away from us and be so much more powerful. Turn off the fucking power. Turn off the fucking power, and you know what happens to AI? It dies. Your crypto, your Bitcoin, all that shit that they want you to believe is so much more powerful than you. If it was the most powerful, aliens are smarter, superheroes are stronger, and machines are faster and cleverer and everything else. Then why is it that the Holy Grail for everything and everyone is humanity? Because humanity lives in the image of God, and God is the real enemy of Satan, who rules in this realm.

And it’s obvious, right? They’re not even hiding it anymore, right? They’re out front, in our face, you know, just worshiping Satan, you’re spot on. And there’s two theories behind that, right? And they might both be true. But one is, they’re running out of time because this has been set in stone. Everyone, you know, a lot of people on here know, but 1913 Federal Reserve Act, the Rockefellers, the banking, this did that. I mean, you can go back all the way to the founding of America, even before the Illuminati’s founding, to the lumens before that, to the crown. You can go back in time to all of it. And you can say this has been built over hundreds of years. But what we see now, we have been living in a time of ambiguity increasing in information warfare. That’s what it’s called, right? Where you can’t see the truth. Now we’re in the time of ambiguity decreasing as people are being revealed. And that is happening because within a few months, the people, the good guys, the people on the right team, will have the ability, clarity, and commitment to hold people accountable.

Now, I’m not saying that’s going to happen. I am just a journalist. That’s all I am. I’m one person, and one person has taken a beating in accounting for more than a decade, right? So I am not the Oracle or the miracle or the authority on anything. But what I can tell you is we know, we know this is like no election in history. We know this. And so right now, they’re under pressure, obviously, because not all is going their way. People are speaking up. You just had Trump go to the South Bronx, you’ve got black people, I mean, Hispanic people, people of every description, people who were too afraid to say they supported Trump saying, ‘I’m done. I’m done. They’re not doing this anymore. I’m standing up.’

And so one side of this, is there a timeline because they were moving, you know, to implement, look with COVID and all these other things. They were moving to implement their work with it, implemented COVID right then they hadn’t had the threat of Trump’s second term. I don’t know. But it seems that there are two reasons, there are two forces pushing this. One is their timeline, but it feels like their timeline is accelerating. And that’s in part because I spoke to a man, I know a man who infiltrated the global cult, the only one I’ve ever met, who was taught to do this, was 20 years underground training, who has read the ancient texts, who’s been in depopulation meetings, and more than that. And what he said to me was that we have been in a period where the power and the might and the strength of the United States have been very instrumental in building this global order. But we are now in a period of velitization, where they are; with these things, this power the United States has, is no longer helping to build the world global order, and is now an obstacle.

And so it has to be dismantled. But at the same time, I would say to you that you only have to look at JFK and the founding fathers in the Constitution to know that there were provisions made for such a time as this. There were people who foresaw it when they wrote it, you know, to protect this country from all enemies, both foreign and domestic. They recognized that there would come a day when this country would be dismantled from within. And they implemented legal constitutional meanings to protect it. And so I would say it goes back to George Washington and the tactics that he used. We are in an undeclared war. This is the thing, it’s an undeclared war and it is, in many ways, the Cold War, and it is a war for the mind where information and propaganda is no longer just a weapon. It is the battlefield itself.

PART III

I am trying very hard to launch my platform and get the backing to fight for real journalism because it’s up to us as journalists. I mean, everybody can see the terrible crisis in the media today. And, you know, it’s easy to start a blog in your home and do interviews on your phone, and there’s a place for that. It’s a very, very important part of independent journalism. But at the same time, it should not completely define journalism. I believe we shouldn’t give up on investigative journalism. So one of the things I’m trying to do is to build a press club that will provide accreditation for independent journalists. We have discovered through our research that a disproportionate number of independent journalists are being sued or prosecuted by the Department of Justice for doing their jobs. And that’s in part because they have no ability to really prove that they’re journalists.

For example, you have people like Steve Baker from The Blaze who are being charged, whereas people from foreign news organizations and American news organizations who were right there side by side with him are not being charged. At the press club, we will provide legal advice, not legal services or representation, but legal advice to help guide independent journalists, accreditation to help protect them, and also an annual award ceremony. One of the things I’m trying to do is to create a pathway for young people. I don’t think that you can say to young people, “Your only chance of survival is to lie your way through high school, lie on your papers, and lie through college, and then take a knee.” How can we tell young people that that’s something to aspire to? Otherwise, you tell them, “Okay, be an independent journalist, and you’re going to suffer. You’re going to be attacked constantly. You’re going to have no protection, no award. You’ll never be recognized as a journalist, and you will run the risk of being sued into oblivion by political entities who hide behind their 501(c)(3) status, and whose only reason for existing is to destroy you.” That’s not a future for young people. No one’s coming to save journalism. If the journalists don’t save it, then who’s going to do it?

So I’m working on that, but at the same time, I want to be the living, breathing example of quality journalism to show that it is possible outside of the corporate structure and the legacy traditional media structure. We can’t give up on that, just the way they want you to give up on comedy, you know, just the way The Babylon Bee’s ability to even do satire is questioned. Because, oh no, wait, you know, that’s not the purview of conservatives. And I’m not even, you know, I don’t even define myself as conservative or liberal. I think those are just tools of a much bigger machine that seeks to compartmentalize us so that we can be destroyed that way. I believe in unity and uniting this country, and I truly believe those divisions are distinctions without real significance. And I’m not a good politician. I have never been, and I never will be. That’s not my strength.

I continue to do my reporting. I’m overwhelmed with people who want me to tell their stories, very significant stories. And it’s massively difficult to operate in today’s environment. We have to have attorneys and First Amendment attorneys who are willing to take on and go through every line of every report, and then we have insurance, and it costs an absolute fortune. It makes significant journalism prohibitively expensive. Honestly, every day, I’m fighting for my survival. That’s pretty much what I’m doing, fighting for my survival. My children have been targeted and thrown out of school. I’ve lived this for more than a decade, and it is exhausting. I mean, it really is exhausting. I’m sure other people have been through this and other things, and some have been through worse things. So you know what it’s like. But all I can say is all I know how to do is what I was born to do. This is my purpose. I was born to tell the truth and to tell stories, and I’m good at it. And I am dismayed that so many people in this country when the rubber meets the road, fail to rise to the challenge. I don’t know what they’re hoping for. I think, you know, as Mel Gibson once said, the number one thing that most people fear is public humiliation, but I’ve had plenty. So I don’t care anymore. And that’s pretty much where I am. I don’t care anymore.”

WEF & Davos 2024 – Where Tyrants Gather

Davos Switzerland

Dateline: 15 January 2024

Whether planning the next pandemic, famine or crisis to inflict the world with new cause to control the masses you can find many of the worlds billionaires, tyrants, sycophants and self imposed elites in Davos. Klaus Schwab will usher in his diabolical agenda, developed and contrived by the World Economic Form (WEF), that enables them to control western governments and partner with the likes of communist China to control resources, the free flow of information and ultimately freedom of movement.

So what is on the agenda for WEF 2024. Let’s have a look:

  • The World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report 2024 says the biggest short-term risk stems from misinformation and disinformation.
  • In the longer term, climate-related threats dominate the top 10 risks global populations will face.
  • Two-thirds of global experts anticipate a multipolar or fragmented order to take shape over the next decade.

Shall we examine?

Misinformation and disinformation. Brilliant, of course in an election year in many western democracies including the United States, control of information flow will be done by discrediting people like Trump, Musk and writ large those dirty, smelly Deplorables. Cancelling or suppressing information is another favorite tactic. Pulling a page from the 2020 election cycle and Tech Tyrants like Mark Zuckerberg and Silicon Valley, Klaus and his WEF Klan can plan their strategies and control measures to prevent Trump being re-elected. However, Elon Musk has gotten in their way. Although the WEF controls corporate media, it is dying. New media like rebranded X and citizen journalists like the 53rd Regiment and Podcasters are serving as modern day Minutemen disrupting WEF falsehoods, warning of their dystopian plans and showcasing their lies. Many countries in Europe are starting to fight back to control their destiny. Klaus is not happy.

The WEF’s old crutch is of course Climate Change. The One Worlders have successfully scared the western world populations into submission. Biden is not only an elite capture of China, he is equally controlled by the masterminds in the WEF. Younger generations have been brained washed since childhood. Klaus Schwab and his Band of Orchestrated Killers (they kill through their policies of deprivation) have successfully reduced farming land, oil energy supplies and are advocating policies to create scarcity on a broad scale. All of this insanity is being driven by the Climate Scare.

Fragmented order, what is the means for this? Besides policies that drive scarcity of fuel, food and deprivation of economic means for people to lead fruitful lives, the WEF is driving illegal migration to western countries to facilitate break down in shared values and create division. Destroy a nations national pride by importing masses of people that do not conform to western societies. Balkanize the West, especially America, to create massive division. Since the Democratic Party has been co-opted by the WEF and China CCP, use them to destroy the United States from within. Leverage standard Marxists tactics of dividing people by race, religion and ideology. Leverage 21st Century tools like DEI, CRT and the Trans Agenda to confuse children. Turn children against their parents and the rule of law. Be relentless. Open borders fuels fragmented order through chaos and consuming government means.

It’s Davos week where miscreants, evil and self described elites plan our demise. America remains their biggest problem. Once America sheds the snake skin of the Democratic Party, Biden, Obama, Pelosi, Schumer and the Band of Hate, America’s glory will return. And if I was a betting man, leading the charge will be the WEF’s biggest nightmare, President Donald J. Trump returns in 2025. Save America!

Ignorance & Fear Abounds

… Fear of being canceled. Fear of what others think. Fear of Big Government. Fear of being reported. Fear of retribution. Fear into submission. Fear.

This is tyranny, the desired environment created by tyrants.

Dateline: March 19th, 2023     by Guardian 6

If they can shut you up and cause you to not exercise your 1st Amendment rights, they’ve won.

If they can threaten to take away your 2nd Amendment rights, and you let them, they’ve won.

If they can intimidate state and federal judges to not accept cases with legitimate election fraud, they’ve won.

If they can scream racist at you for wanting criminals, murderers and drug traffickers prosecuted, they’ve won.

If they can secure borders of other countries with federal funding, but not our own, they’ve won.

If they can close down businesses by COVID19 lockdowns and fiats, they’ve won.

If they can ignore laws on the books for securing the border and use federal funding to house, feed and transport illegal aliens throughout the United States, they’ve won.

If they can shove “Green Energy” conversion down your throats where the technology and cost efficiency does not make sense, all under the false guise of #ClimateChange, they’ve won.

If they can remove God from every corner of the public square but be good with creating Satan Clubs in elementary schools, they’ve won.

If they can allow the  allow a Chinese Communist Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance collection platform (balloon) to fly across the US for a week to collect on US Military installations and sensitive areas, they’ve won.

If a president and his family can accept tens of millions of dollars for over a decade by Chinese Communists, fund the Biden Center with over $50 million in Chinese Communist money and the FBI and Intelligence Community not investigate and prosecute the Biden’s, they’ve won.

If they can arrest, detain and restrict parents from objecting at school board meetings on pornography,  groomer books and drag queens being brought into elementary and secondary schools, they’ve won.

If the FBI can label traditional Catholics as threats and put them on terror watch lists for their faith, they’ve won.

Ignorance and fear abounds. We got here by not speaking up and tolerating these tyrants for decades. Through fraudulent elections. By timidity. By fear of what others think. America is still America but social media, Fake News outlets, collusion between the Democrats and Main Stream Media, the Great Reset, intentional Balkanization of America and Obama’s cry to “fundamentally transform” America and allowing the leftists to take over our schools and universities. When we choose to fight back and demand to be heard, and honest elections are restored, we will win. Time to organize local, state and federally to restore America to our greatness. America remains an exceptional country that just needs the communist leftist democrats to be destroyed. Not defeated, destroyed!

Interview: Blackjack Pershing – American Patriot

Dateline: March 13th, 2023      Missouri 

This is a special featured article with@Blackjackpershing, a featured author, scholar and @Twitter persona that brings his intellect, good humor and conservative values to the fight for freedom and the American way of life. Fearless, bold and provocative Blackjack tells it how it is, how it should be and when necessary holds the leftist politician and the lies of democrats to account. Enjoy the read and getting to know Blackjack!

1. Blackjack, millions of readers across the globe have enjoyed your essays and commentary now for nearly a decade. What do you credit for your keen insight and analysis, and ability to breakdown issues so the average reader can quickly comprehend?

First off thanks for the opportunity to do this chat and to share it with members of 53rd Nation!  This website is a difference maker for patriots who want to ‘BE HEARD’.  I’m proud to be part of this team.  We cover a myriad of topics from politics to UFO’s – it’s rewarding and entertaining.

I do my best and if there is credit to be given it’s to my parents – a dad who was proudly trained in Latin, Logic, Philosophy and many other disciplines and a highly intelligent, well read mother with great sense of humor.

I write when I am moved to, instead of trying to keep a schedule, so when I do put something out there, it’s usually something I have been thinking about for some time.

2. Why do you go by Blackjack Pershing? Is there a linkage to your time in the Army?

John J Pershing is an under appreciated General historically speaking – his rank, ‘General of the Armies’ was the equivalent of 6 stars and hasn’t been awarded to anyone since.  He was from my state, Missouri, and his time in the army bridged from the late 19th into the 20th century.  He laid the ground work for the modern military in organizationally and strategically as he prepared the military to fight WW1.  He was an advisor to presidents until his passing.

I served proudly in the US Army in a weapons system named for him; the painting by George Finley on my twitter banner is the Pershing II Missile system.


3. What formed you as a person?

The parents mentioned above made sure I got a Catholic foundation – in faith and education.  I won’t name the schools I attended here but I was fortunate to go to several great Catholic institutions that reinforced and enlightened my character and beliefs.

It is sad that the Catholic Intellectual Tradition is not offered to more people who could benefit.  Statistically we know that those exposed to it are more successful in life, have longer more stable marriages and personal lives, and tend to give more to charity.

I’d be remiss in not mentioning my time in the Army as being critical to my own formation – in terms of leadership development, character development, physical fitness and a thousand other things – the Army is a huge part of who I am – I realize it more the older I get.

 4. Many of your writings take on the issues of the day. Politics, sports, American culture and business. More and more in American society these areas of interest overlap. How do you assess the political landscape? Is American culture being eroded and if so, how and why?

The leftists who have corrupted the democrat party are the root cause of most societal ills.  Are there bad conservatives too?  Sure.  However, for clarity, you could say that not all democrats are extreme leftists, but most extreme leftist are democrats.

I do see an overall convergence of institutional decay across most sectors of society – as you mention, sports, law enforcement, politics, government agencies, etc.

Where does it come from?  We have covered it here in 53rd quite well.  Leftists ruin everything like locusts.  They’ve infiltrated all levels of education with political and sexual indoctrination and perversion.  That leads to a generation like Gen Z which is neurotic, beset by many forms of mental illness, weak physically and addicted to their phones.  This was done strategically and patiently.

Conservatives need to take accountability for the situation, as they allowed it.  It happened under their noses.

5. Joe Biden, is he bubble wrapped by the media? Is it plausible that he really did get 81 million votes to Trump’s 75 million? Why has our electoral process become elongated? Is there an intersection here?

I believe Biden is not Biden.  Go look at the videos from 8 years ago.  He was a chucklehead back then, but that’s about the only similarity.  Eyes, nose, ears – all different.  He may be some sort of replicant that was created to do the bidding of the DNC and Soros.  He may indeed be the real Joe with any number of surgeries that have altered his appearance – but is incredibly impaired mentally and controlled by a small cabal – with ‘Dr’ Jill’s ongoing compliance.  He may be drugged and purposely impaired.

The constant trips to Delaware are telling.  I believe maintenance is performed on the replicant on these weekends.

Joe got 81 Million ballots – not votes.  We all know how it was done, and enabled by the media, federal and state bureaucracies.   Ballot harvesting and creation is real.  Pennsylvania is the ultimate example that remains unfixed.  Does anyone really believe Fetterman was really elected?  Yes, leftists are that insane, but many just can’t or are unwilling to believe it.

 6. The Media, first rate or corrupt? Who has it right? Where are the bad actors?

Mark Levin has covered this best – they have always been corrupt going back to the ‘party press’ in the US a century ago.  Newspapers around the US were named for the political parties overtly.  They tried to professionalize to some degree after WW2 but let’s face it – they were finks back then too.  We all knew.  One big difference was that up until very recently, most networks would cover real news and issues regardless of which side they were on.  Think back to Clinton’s impeachment or Biden’s lies in his earlier presidential attempts.  Leftist news outlets reported all of it.  We now have a completely corrupt leftist press in the US.  Fox News is not much better and was in on the 2020 election fraud.  Newsmax is tolerable.  OAN ok but not widely available.  Sites like The 53rd Regiment will eventually replace traditional news outlets.  Citizens and Patriots trust each other more than manipulators and posers at the networks.

7. China. Many of your intellectual writings take on the Chinese Communists and their American collaborators. How do you assess the Chinese threat and what actions must the US take?

Unlike the Cold War in which we were at a stand off with a distinct and entrenched communist enemy, with China we are much more entangled with a more sinister foe.  Think about it.  We source massive amounts of consumer goods from an emerging enemy.  We are educating their youth who go back home afterward and work against us.  None of this makes any sense.  We have allowed them to infiltrate our institutions and work against us.  Our largest corporations are completely in bed with and compromised by China.  Ditto on that for our largest universities.

Consider any of the woke leftist absurd ideas – from gender ideology to ESG to Climate Change to Covid – China CCP’s prints are all over these ideas and efforts.  They are trying to rot us from within.  They have been successful.  We have a serious need for internal reform, let alone the need to compete and win in any number of technology based problem areas.  Meanwhile, the installed leadership of the US continues to retreat and signal weakness.

8. Do you buy the whole argument that the US leadership role is being passed by China? There is nothing the US can do?

I don’t buy it.  I don’t accept it.  The current fiasco could be turned around in a week with the right leadership at the presidential level.  Trump had them managed and compliant – quickly.  You can read his likely China agenda on this site.  In the end freedom wins.  The ability of the USA to leapfrog and CCP achievement remains, despite the democrats constant attempts to undermine the country.

9. COVID19, should China be held accountable? Why hasn’t Biden confronted China on the Virus?

Biden is compromised.  China has a multitude of video tapes of Joe and his son doing horrific things.  Aside from that, Joe has been paid off.  That information was on the laptop from hell.  WE ALL KNOW.

With regard to COVID – Trump has it right.  Their bill is $20 trillion for starters for what they did to us and the rest of the world.  Further, an entire generation of students from grade school to college have been permanently damaged by the idiotic lockdowns caused by the China Virus and weak, primarily democrat, leadership.  The root cause was China.

10. What has happened to the US Army, the Department of Defense and the American warrior spirit? What is the state of military leadership in our Armed Forces?

Another outrageous situation.  There is a crop of general officers, some retired, some still in the service, who lost 2 wars with zero accountability.  You might argue that Iraq was not lost, but I’d say it wasn’t won either.  Regardless, these arrogant slobs mouth off on all sorts of matters – political and woke – but check their tongues on their own malfeasance – like the disastrous pull out from Afghanistan.  Some of these train wrecks are also borderline obese.  Honestly our general officer corps is starting to remind me of the groups of ancient Soviet generals you’d see overlooking the May Day parades in Moscow, or the groups of toady generals you see with Kim Jong Un – with loads of medals on their uniforms, that signify nothing.  They suck up to get along.

 11. Woke-ism, ESG, Transgenderism and DEI – are these the tools Obama implemented to radically transform America while he lives a palatial life in Hawaii, DC and Martha’s Vineyard?

That smug and unaccomplished punk is the author of many of our worst ills.   Lots of baby boomers voted for him believing we needed a black president.  They enabled all of it. We need a president that loves America and takes his oath of office seriously regardless of color. By the way, the Floppy Mike thing is real.

12. Some believe Joe Biden is simply Obama’s front man. That Obama’s grand bargain with Biden was to be installed president, he will take all direction from “the puppet masters.” What do you believe?

I believe there is an Obama, Rice, Klain, Jarrett cabal.  Keep your eyes on Valerie Jarrett.  She is the most sinister Obama operative.  Note how fast Roseanne Barr was fired for making a joke about her – it was still early in the woke period but she was canned and cancelled immediately.  That was a Jarrett demand.  That group is in direct control of the replicant.  They make the calls while Dr Jill changes the diapers.

13. Who wins 2024 if it is Trump vs. Biden again?

With actual votes, Trump wins his third term.  With ballots its anybody’s guess.  Of the 5 worst states for voter fraud, Pennsylvania is worse off than 2020, Arizona is also worse off.  Michigan is the same.  Wisconsin has done some reform.  Georgia has made reforms.  Trump can’t win AZ or PA for obvious reasons.

Republicans have to come back at democrats with the same level of acumen the democrats have developed for using the legal system against their enemies.  If they don’t they will be sidelined for decades to come.

14. Why is corporate America jumping on the woke, ESG and DEI train? Can it be stopped?

It’s leftist bullying at its core, but there are several other elements.  The incoming generation, indoctrinated in their education, demand their employers take public positions on issues that have nothing to do with their business.  They are shrill little punks and many executives cave to them out of concerns for retaining talent.  Further, the PR and marketing functions in particular are staffed with left leaning woke dopes.  That goes across all industries.  If you want to experience group think – go hang out with Marketers or PR Hacks for a day.  Willing idiots and dopes.
Recently candy makers Mars and Hershey both learned hard lessons by letting their marketing idiots engage on transgender BS.  In the end maybe losses and poor performance will make them learn.  Leftist don’t learn however so it’s a tough situation.

15. As we close out this interview let’s end on a positive note. What gives you hope about America’s future that our better days are ahead of us?

I am an optimist despite the fact that we are in strange times.  A number of things about the United States will endure.  Most of the people are not woke.  Most of the people do not trust the media.  Most of the people love and worship God.  We still have the most innovation happening in our midst than any other place on the planet.  We still are the one place people from around the world want to come to in order to have a fair chance at making it.  We are still the best last hope for liberty on the planet.  The constitution endures.  The bill of rights endures despite obvious democrat hatred for it.  All of you can BE HEARD via places like The 53rd Regiment.   We will be fine, but we are going to have to go to work.

Twitter Rock Star: Meet Svit – American Patriot

Dateline: 10 March 2023

Q&A Interview with Миротворец: Царь Svyatoslav Великий @Kremlins16

This is a special featured article with Svit, @kremlin16, a Twitter persona that brings his intellect, good humor and conservative values to the fight for freedom and freedom of speech against the left. Informed by history and his family suffering under the yoke of communism, Svit fight the good fight (debate) battling the ignorant, the leftist politician and the lies of democrats. Enjoy the read.!

1. Svit, during the dark days of pre Elon Musk purchase of Twitter, how did you survive the masking of accounts, cancel culture and the viscous left? Initially, I deleted my account, as I noticed other Twitter users were doing-so. However, the deletion, did not come easily, I struggled with it, but I could see weekly, often daily, my account was targeted and my followers dropped, as did the people I followed did – deleted it. Spooky! As a Tech, it was easy to see, or realize I was being targeted, while not “pin-pointed” personally, possibly I was caught in a “rule” that dastardly algorithm we always hear about. I suggest it was a rule-based tool, searching for phrases , created by programmers targeting conservative users. These rules, or algorithms, unlike the potato, or turnip, or bunny, they do not breed, human hands create them. Do not believe Obama!
2. Tell us about yourself. Russian or Ukrainian? Family background? Communism your family endured? Are you seeing an installation of progressive/communist policies to destroy our freedom?
I consider myself Russian, in the same sense an American from various states calls themselves American, i.e., Texan, Californian, etc. However, I do indeed come from people in various provinces of the Ukraine and Balkans. I am not from the Grand Duchy of Moscow. So, I am Ukrainian. See the irony? Unlike some Ukrainians that play in this 19th century Balkanization, I could see the stirring of war years ago, even when this so-called break occurred, I always wince when people bring up this imaginary Kievan Rus as their starting point for the break away. Its nonsense, foolish, and of course the European Union, that Von Renthe creation exploits it to the full – Guy Verhofstadt anyone? Not one of our good ancestors would understand this term Ukrainia in the modern sense, the nobles, the Grand Princes, and Emperors who ruled us never asked the simple peasant their opinions, and the likely answer “that’s for the Tsar to decide, not me”. My point, several people are guilty in this Ukrainian quagmire, and these guilty people now crow, and pimp for war with an innocence that shocks me…. My background, I did not have the greatest upbringings until a relative stepped in, and from there, my life was much better, but a new hammer came with it. This lady my aunt, struck fear into any nonsense, or bad grade I ever received. Her constant reminder that I was her parents’ grandson was the beginning of punishment. The fist that smacked my mug though, was always covered with velvet! I owe her everything, the wonderful woman, and her husband. He came recently before he died, telling me how proud she was of me, nothing was more awarding than this. As to more, I grew up hearing terrible stories of socialism, I had very old relatives around, so the constant stories were horrid. I mention one always, the worst, of a relative being stuffed in a barrel, nails jammed in, and rolled down a hill. Certainly, socialism at its most caring efficiency, it teaches the audience, the onlookers to obey!
3. Electric Ronald, statesman or clown? Complete clown. Unbelievable this clown has aged there 50 years. This says something about the voter, sadly!
4. I see in social meeting “engagements” with leftist tyrants you are 246 – 0 in fights. What is the key to victory? I read Saul Alinsky, and I never answer these trolls for the most part. I like to toy with them, be absurd, drag them into a hole, throw out facts, distortions, and let them get caught, then hammer them. Strangely, many of these leftists admit they are racist, bigots and tools. Almost all of them block me, I believe 1 or 2 have not. I know for the most part I accuse them of nonsense, but I really do believe, some, honestly, work for politicians. Some have followed me to other platforms, and I am 100% certain 3 were actual politicians.
5. You would appear to have a Band of Brothers that have your back on Twitter. How did this group of patriots organize? Who are they? Honestly, that’s the funny part! I used to get on twitter to just tell people what I am up to. I go to clubs, hang out always in various places, record shops, eat at various places. I never speak of politics to my friends – ever. I defended a person on Twitter with a similar background (though famous), and these trolls came at me. Well, I deleted the account, and then came back at these same trolls under a new account, and from there I started meeting various Twitter users with the same sense of humor, and similar background. I think from there, I started adding people, to the chats, as I find them funny, these people, these leftists, they are morons. We need a laugh, life is good, not some horrid vile place controlled by animals like Schiff.
6. Who tells bigger lies, Schiff or Swalwell? Best nicknames for them? One appears to be a watermelon and the other a Bunny. Though I would say Schiff is the biggest lair, he is intelligent, and calculates his dirty business. Schiff’s nicknames, like watermelon, I think pencil neck is best. Swalwell, lets be honest. How did this tool pass the bar exam? He really is a low intelligent public servant. My thoughts, he would suffer without Nancy’s benevolence. I struggled with all his nicknames, finally Bunny came up. Absurd! Totally! Absurd like Swalwell. Bunny is the best, it annoys this loser.

WHO THE HECK IS JOSEPH EDER ??

Dateline 8 March 2023

Q&A interview with The 53rd Regiment’s (the53rdregiment.com) good friend, Mr Joseph Eder. You can find several of Joe’s art pieces featured prominently on numerous articles on the 53rd’s website. Joe brings his talents to us from Europe as a proud Austrian.  His masterpieces bring insights on the social, political and cultural times we are living in. The 53rd appreciates artist flare and we are grateful to have him as a contributor to our work. 

1. Your artwork is special, unique. Who’s better, Rembrandt, Vangoe or Eder? 

Rembrandt and van Gogh were great masters, but both of lousy humor. A good cartoon is more than just art, there is also the journalistic, feuilletonistic part, along with hard hitting comedy. Best thing as a cartoonist: You can offend people without having to cut your ear off!!!

2. What is the inspiration for your artwork? Who did you model yourself after?

Well, I draw ´em like I see ´em, but of course there was some inspiration for this style of drawing. First of all there are Europe´s Classic-Comic-Masters like Ibanez(Clever&Smart) or Uderzo(Asterix), but also Amercian stuff like Popeye or Tom and Jerry, who I always loved as a kid, and then we have all the great Street-Art pieces around Europe, still inspiring me, but the most important influence I had as a political cartoonist is the Austrian godfather of dark humor, Manfred Deix(R.I.P).

3. Three dinner guests to enjoy an evening with, who would you pick?

Biden, Zelenskyj and Putin, sitting at an Ukraine-shaped table, and once again it´s me who´s forced to pay them dinner!

4. Joe Biden, the American President, what is the average German sentiment on the street? Old fool or greatest American president ever?

I think even the German Leftists have realized that this guy is a very dangerous mix of corruption and being senile…. In Austria and Switzerland people are more concerned about the growing influence of NATO-Worldwarmongers, trying to lure us into giving up our neutrality. Being neutral means neither wanting to be “liberated“ by the Russians, nor wanting to be “protected“ by NATO. To put and end to the circus, one must not become the circus!!!

5. Would you let Joe Biden watch your children?

In general it´s enough that they have to watch Brandon´s global shitshow every day and besides that, well educated Austrian kids would never accept a foreign president as an authority.

6. Do you prefer Octoberfest or International Women’s Day?

Well, both events seem to have the same problems: being totally sold out to Marketing and Propaganda, so if you want to see a real beerfest, along with true Feminism, better vistit our countryside instead, where traditionally strong women know what they want and people don´t need an orchestrated reason to drink. Besides that, without all that tourism-fuzz, everything tastes better, yes, I meant EVERYTHING!!!

7. American football recently played a game in Germany. Boring or worth a look?

Sorry to say and no offense, I seriously never heard about that, maybe I´m too busy watching wintersports…

8. Russia and Ukraine War, Joe how does this end?

This might sound a bit romantic, but I truly believe, that it is on us, the common people, to put an end to this useless, crazy waste of innocent lives. If our peaceful protest against this war can put enough pressure on the streets, they have to negotiate. It´s us funding these killings and it´s us who can put and end to it….Power to the people!!!

  • 9. Final thoughts for your American friends, any advice on best places in Germany to visit?

    The best places to visit in Germany are the railwaystations, where highspeed trains will bring you to Austria, a country much older than just 150 years, where the food is better(you have to try the pastries) and world´s best coffee is served. People might seem a bit grumpy on the first, but after a bottle of wine, everything´s fine…

Psychic MAGA Predictions 2023

By Blackjack Pershing @PershingSoldier on Twitter, @BlakJakPershing 0on GETTR and @BlackJackPershing on Truth
Fellow patriots it’s time for our annual look forward – our prognostications for 2023.  More exciting than Nostradamus, more accurate than Jean Dixon and more entertaining than watching Chris Christy and Alexander Vindman fight over a fresh box of Dunkin Donuts!!
Onward – here are our best predictions for 2023 using a proprietary method known only to the staff of The 53rd Regiment and certain members of the Knights of Malta.
Adam Kinzinger will be rejected by the Fake News as a commentator.  Gets a job as a Drag Queen Story hour scheduler in a Chicago suburb.
It is revealed during hearings on the Hunter Biden debacle that Hunter had affairs with Cher, Joy Bejar, Bette Midler and Rob Reiner.
Elon Musk will delegate the leadership of Twitter to a reliable 10th grader from one of his children’s high school.  Once the technical issues and business model are fixed, he will announce that day to day there’s just not much to do.
Mitch Romney will announce that he is transitioning.  Lyndsay Graham will announce he already has.
Michelle Obama will host a wide-ranging press conference in anticipation of a presidential run.  Topics covered with include the Floppy Mike controversy and the related death of Joan Rivers.
George Conway, husband/wife of Kellyanne, will join the world of competitive eating in what many will consider a long overdue ‘no brainer’- he will enjoy notoriety after defeating Kobayashi in the 2023 Nathan’s Coney Island Hotdog Eating Contest
After sinking further to previously unknown levels of irrelevance and detestability, Bill Kristol will finally self-actualize and become spokesman for Vladimir Putin.  The money will be better than what he gets from the DNC and the food and booze at the Kremlin will grow on him.
Paul Pelosi, or Hunter 2.0 as he now calls himself, will take the first of many trips to Ukraine as an alleged peace broker.  He will have an unknown guest with him.
In a provocative move, Liz Cheney will pose for a nude spread at Playboy, Inc, which will finally drive that relic out of business.  Undeterred, Liz will set up her own only fans account.
Klaus Schwab will announce that he will move to Sleepy Joe’s Delaware beach house and continue to enjoy his semi-nude beach walks there, while advising Dr Jill on the best globalist wipes for diaper duty.
Amy Klobuchar and Liz Warren will star in a remake of the 60’s television series The Mothers-in-law
The Lincoln Project will openly lobby for the legalization of pedophilia. Simultaneously Biden will issue proactive pardons for all potential charges of pedophilia against Lincoln Project members.
Stacey Abrams will replace Whoopi Goldberg on the View; while not quite as ghastly and beastly as Whoopi, she will commit to putting in the work.
John Brennan, Frank Luntz, James Clapper, Michael Hayden, James Comey and Ron Klain will be arrested for public indecency at a rest area off of I-95.  Quick pardons will be issued from Biden as the MSM refuses to cover the story.
In related news, General Milley will announce the entire Navy is transitioning and remind the nation that the Navy was ‘trans from the beginning and that being trans is in keeping with our finest military traditions!’
Alexander Vindman will be revealed to be the long-suffering wife of Senator Charles Schumer as he files for divorce.
Citizens of Arizona will begin a movement to get their rightfully elected Governor in office.
John Fetterman will be revealed as a DNC clone experiment gone awry.  Meant to be one of the many standard Biden Clones used for the presidency, Fetterman was one such clone that went bad as he was being hatched.  DNC leadership decided that the nitwit dems in PA would embrace him, along with a nice sprinkling of election fraud.
Those are the current prognostications, fellow patriots.  You are invited to leave your own in the comments below!

Gabe

The problem is not with the county, and our laws, it is with the political attitude of the left. “Defund the police,” “police brutality” and “white racism.” This is what the public has been trained. Gabe Kapler is just another attention seeking stooge that embraces the false narrative instead of offering real solutions. Lies and falsehoods beget lies and more falsehoods.

Muddle

“Trump stepped into the puddle, picked up the mud and threw it back at her canceling her trip overseas. What we have here is a Muddle (mud + puddle).”

Guardian 6                                                                                      18 January 2019

Americans are largely disgusted at the massive dysfunction of our government. This latest episode of the Pelosi-Schumer government shutdown demonstrates how the majority of elected representatives serve themselves and not the republic. The ancient, entrenched democratic party leadership led by Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are out of touch with mainstream thought and common sense Americans. Their agenda is centered on power, control and more power, America be dammed.

President Trump has stayed in Washington throughout the holidays and he has canceled several trips ready to negotiate with democratic leadership over funding for the wall and border security. The democrats have vacationed in Hawaii, Puerto Rico and planned a seven day excursion to overseas to “visit the troops.” President Trump canceled Pelosi’s boondoggle to keep her in town to negotiate (the troops wont miss the distraction either!). While on the surface picturing Pelosi & Adam Schiff exiting the shuttle bus when their trip was canceled is priceless, this was more than a tit-for-tat for Pelosi canceling the State of the Union address. President Trump put his foot down telling Pelosi stop playing games with Americans and their government. Compromise!

Border security is a real issue. One statistic alone should make funding border security and key portions of the wall a slam dunk; 300 Americans die weekly due to drug overdoses whereby 90% of drugs are coming across the southern border. That is 15,600 Americans dying a year before we ever get to illegal immigration, human trafficking, MS-13 and terrorists infiltrating across. Failure to address this issue is unforgivable and Trump gets it.

Both Pelosi and Schumer have voted for the wall and border security before, several times. So what is this about? Power, control, resistance and more power. Pelosi & Schumer are willing to let Americans suffer from government dysfunction so they can resist, secure power and undermine the President’s ability to govern. Their conduct is shameful, outrageous and unbecoming a public servant.

The President is right to stand his ground. He has been offering to meet in the middle putting American safety and security first. Reasonable people can compromise. To do less than that is unforgivable after the turmoil Pelosi & Schumer have put the country through. All of this will be remembered in 2020 and the democrats are once again demonstrating their inability to govern responsibly by legislating to the extremes. Although the mainstream media continues to attack and blame Trump for this mess, Americans proved in 2016 they see through all the lies. Democrats should think about that because while they took the House, the Republicans not only maintained the Senate, they added seats. Americans are watching and already regretting giving the democrats back the House.

The childish mud Pelosi threw at President Trump cancelling the State of the Union address landed in a puddle. Trump stepped into the puddle, picked up the mud and threw it back at her canceling her trip overseas. What we have here is a Muddle (mud + puddle). Pelosi still hasn’t learned that President Trump does some of his best work in the mud!

Thanksgiving 2018

This Thanksgiving there is much to give thanks for beyond football games and parades but for a President restoring faith in America and creating opportunity for all.

=546

by Guardian 6   Dateline 19 November 2018

                Thanksgiving originated as a harvest festival beginning with the Pilgrims in 1621. In 1789, with a proclamation by President George Washington, Thanksgiving became a federal holiday but was celebrated on different days throughout the union. It wasn’t until President Lincoln proclaimed a day of Thanksgiving in 1863 as the last Thursday in November that it became a federal holiday celebrated on the same day. This Thanksgiving there is much to give thanks for beyond football games and parades but for a President restoring faith in America and creating opportunity for all.

                Economy. A record number of Americans are working and industries are investing in stateside companies again and employees due to the policies of President Trump. The gross domestic product (GDP) is approaching 4% for 2018, a number thought impossible just a year ago. To put this into perspective, each percentage point adds about 3 million new jobs and $3 trillion in revenue to the economy. These are huge meaningful numbers to be thankful for. There are not only more jobs being created, but Americans have job choices as there are more jobs than employees available. This is driving up wages. Companies are now competing for employees. This is a winning formula for Americans. 

                Justice Kavanaugh! Past administrations would have folded and allowed the deceitful democrats to plant their lies and orchestrate their malicious politics of personal destruction against conservatives with media complicity. Past administrations would have withdrawn the nominee. Not President Trump with able Senators Grassley and Graham calling out the lies and countering with outrage, truth and spine! When your President is strong and fights for justice, he emboldens others to follow suite. This Thanksgiving, we’ll be joining Justice Kavanaugh for several rounds of beer because the 53rd loves beer too! 

                Fair Trade. On the world stage President Trump is standing up to China for manipulating their currency, intellectual property theft and unfair trade practices where they dump their products at low prices to kill American and western industries. Trump’s tariffs target Chinese state sponsored strategies that are destroying America’s economic power, industries and technological advantages through economic espionage. Trump is trying to reverse decades of American economic leadership malaise challenging the Chinese to play fair or suffer the consequences. This is Trump’s America first policy (“I’m a nationalist”), putting Americans and America first. The next issue President Trump should address is Chinese forced partnership in China, again centered on growing Chinese industries at the expense of America.  American industries that do business in China have to be majority owned by a Chinese state enterprise to get access to their market, 50.1% or greater. This is how China has risen to the number two economy in the world. This needs to stop. POTUS is on target and for that the 53rd Regiment is thankful!

Religious Liberty. In America it is shocking to even have to write this but political correctness, the abortion industry and Hollywood regularly mock the faithful and label us. There are Americans afraid to demonstrate their faith in public. Not only is President Trump wishing all of us a Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukah, but he has shown humility by publicaly asking for prayers from pastors and seeking their counsel. As the President has stated, “America is a nation of believers, and together we are strengthened by the power of prayer.” 

This Thanksgiving there is much to give thanks for beyond football games and parades but for a President restoring faith in America and creating opportunity for all.

Twitter Patriots

America’s sons and daughters of liberty are taking twitter by storm. They are the modern day equivalent of Minute Men or Daughters of Liberty pushing back against the fake news networks, the leftist-socialist propaganda agenda and the 24/7 President Trump resistance movement. While @twitter does their best to shadow ban or limit their messaging, these patriots will not be silenced. These patriots stand proudly with @potus Trump Make America Great Again movement, #MAGA.

The trailblazing duo of @DiamondandSilk were early adopters of President Trump as a pair of his most outspoken and loyal supporters. Their tag team approach of bringing reality to liberals with a little “chit chat” is direct, humorous and on point. 

Bringing national security expertise and street smarts, former secret service agent and NYPD officer @dbongino deals directly and forcefully with liberal lies and fake news on all forums including his podcast. Dan is eloquent, quick witted and a regular on @foxnews burning the midnight oil ready to joist a liberal elite off their horse at a moment’s notice. 

@RealJamesWoods is our favorite Hollywood conservative with his take no prisoners approach to commentary. Quick witted and armed with an MIT education, foolish fake fanciful liberals think they can challenge him or refute his critiques. Wrong! James will quickly undress you with your pants down around your ankles with your shoes tied together.

Brilliant, quick witted and tough, the @hodgetwins don’t mess around! They go deep and swing for the fences. These two “Comedians, Black Conservatives” are all about calling out the loons on the left with humor and wit. Make America Great Again! 

@The_Smirker is our “Common Sense Conservative and Psychiatrist for Joe Scarborough” and takes on all lying Liberal & Never Trumpers for morning coffee and evening beers. He fights and wins! Really have to appreciate the selfless service counseling America’s #1 clown @JoeNBC. 

Big victory coming November 6th! #Redwave coming with Twitter Patriots armed with facts, principles and love of country. @potus just wins and so do the Twitter Patriots! 

Who Do Dems Support – Americans or Coyotes?

by Guardian 6                                          Dateline: The Swamp July 1st, 2018

Failing to secure the border is endangering families and children. American communities are under assault from crime, drugs and gangs. American government agencies such as Immigration Control & Enforcement (ICE) and the Border Patrol are being overrun by an orchestrated campaign by democrats in Congress to not enforce our immigration laws while encouraging open borders, the abolishment of ICE and mass amnesty to anyone who illegally crosses into our country. Who Do Dems Support – Americans or Coyotes?

People in Central American countries are being manipulated by human traffickers, Coyotes (a person who smuggles Latin Americans across the US border, typically for a high fee), drug cartels and profiteers. Innocent people  in poor countries are fleeing economic plight to find better opportunities in America not legally, but illegally. Under these circumstances, the democrats are not only putting the lives of women and children trying to make it to America at great risk by empowering criminal elements, they are failing to enforce our laws endangering their fellow Americans while calling for open borders and the elimination of ICE. Who Do Dems Support – Americans or Coyotes?

Seventeen years removed from the attacks of September 11th, the irresponsible leadership of the Democratic Party (Sen. Schumer, Congresswoman Pelosi and Congresswoman Maxine Waters) are inviting lawlessness through their false narratives about illegal immigration. Once again, the media is partnering with the democrats to help whip up a frenzy, create the false narrative against ICE and covering democratic marches against ICE making this the lead story in the US. All of this is highly irresponsible. We elect fellow citizens to govern and solve problems. Schumer and Waters refuse to work with President Trump and the republicans. They continue to demagogue the issue to score political points and position themselves on the fringe for the 2018 Midterm elections. Who Do Dems Support – Americans or Coyotes?

Who continues to lose? Americans; American communities over burdened with illegals; border towns; citizens who have lost loved ones to illegal immigration gangs such as MS-13; blue collar working Americans marginalized by illegals working for lower wages; and American institutions under assault by elected government officials failing to support them for upholding the laws they passed. Who Do The Democrats Support – Americans or Coyotes? 

Are these Union or Confederate Sabers?

The UVA football helmet as well as other UVA sports team logos have military sabres on them that appear to be from the civil war era.

  1. Are these union or confederate sabres?

2. Will this be the next outcry?

3. Where does this end?

4. Can there be Cavaliers without swords?

5. Would the Virginia state bird or flower be a better symbol than swords?

 

Glory Days – “BOLO”

The 53rd Regiment News

Dateline: March 1st, 2017

Army troops know the term. No one wanted to BOLO a training event, fail a land navigation course or be associated with some Army training event or exercise that they failed in. No one wanted to be a “BOLO.”

BOLO is a pejorative term meaning failure. It also has some history meaning “Be on the Look Out,” but this is not the meaning in modern day units. In my “glory days,” BOLO was directed at failure or a person who couldn’t get their act together meeting the lowest of standards. One might hear:

  • “Hey Smith, what the hell happened, BOLO again?”
  • “Hey Sir, on the range today we had 29 qualify and 3 BOLO’s”
  • “Jones, what a major BOLO”

I also found a reference stating that BOLO was a term used in WWII for American trained Philippine guerrilla forces that failed to achieve basic marksmanship proficiency with a rifle. They were issued “bolo” knives instead of firearms to preserve ammunition. Hence, they were perhaps the first “BOLOs.”

In basic training, BOLO was a favorite term among Drill Sergeants for recruits among other words or terms that were not very  pleasant. BOLO was actually one of the kinder words one could be called by a Drill Sergeant for failure. This was back in an era before sensitivity training, Consideration of Others Program (COOP) training or before present day college Safe Spaces.

The 53rd Regiment would like to hear from you about your glory days. Be heard!
