President Trump Gives Kim Jong Un a Pass

“All Cattle no Hat!”

This article is for all my friends who are still attacking President Trump and at the risk of ending our long and esteemed friendships I must ask – “Are you serious?”

What makes you think that because KJU met with Trump that he is no less or no more the same dictator he was before the meeting? More importantly how do you figure he “got a pass”? Did you not watch the summit? Not even a little?

Seriously my civilian and military buddies I thought you had more on the ball than that, but your statement baffles me and I seriously disagree. Your reasoning is only highlighted by Senator Chuck Schumer’s screwing up an old Texas saying by calling Trump “All cattle and no hat”. Ha Ha Ha!

So let me remind you that when Trump called KJU “Rocketman”, he was attacked by the left and the right for “getting us into a war with North Korea”, right? Then when Trump called KJU honorable for agreeing to meet in Singapore, he was attacked again for calling the terrible dictator honorable, right? When Trump cancelled the Singapore summit he was attacked still again for not keeping his word or worse. When Trump agreed once again to meet KJU in Singapore he was attacked for changing his mind or whatever the left could think of for agreeing one more time to meet.

Now after the summit where KJU was told (twice by Secretary Pompao prior to the summit) by Trump that Total, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization was the only option and once it was completed could lead to lessoning or removal of sanctions and normalizing relations between North Korea and the rest of the outside world is somehow “giving him a pass”, right?

No my friends the summit in Singapore was showing both the stick and the carrot. There was no “pass” given here. In fact the stick included current military training exercises with South Korea, in the face of North Korea which could very easily be used as punitive action if needed. The carrot is Singapore and what North Korea has missed out on becoming over their years of isolationism.

So tell me again how this is considered a pass? I’ll go one further, tell me since the end of Korean War hostilities and since President Truman, when was the last time an American president talked to the leader of the DPRK – About anything? I’m still waiting for an answer? – I am the Real Truckmaster!

After the Trump-Kim Summit What’s Next?

After The Trump-Kim Summit What’s Next?

On June 12^th, 2018 the historic Singapore Summit between President Donald J. Trump and Leader Kim Jong Un of the DPRK agreed to denuclearize all weapons, stockpiles and factories in an agreement that would reduce or remove sanctions on his beleaguered government affecting millions of Koreans living north of the DMZ. It’s a fact that since the end of Korean War hostilities there has never been a declared end to that war.

By Leader Kim signing a document pledging to President Trump and to the United States the voluntary, total, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization of North Korea just doesn’t make it happen. There must be action and results.

This is a great first step and here is something to think about – never before has the President of the United States and the Leader of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea ever sat down or met face-to-face to discuss North Korea’s Nuclear Weapons Program or anything for that matter. This is a historical first for an American President, and a clear demonstration of the art of the deal by President Trump.

We must not get drawn into a false sense of security or think the nuclear threat is over, it is not. Before anything can change it will take action and it was President Trump who said it will take results on the part of Leader Kim and the DPRK.

Except for the meeting of the two leaders, we’ve been down this road with the DPRK before many times with KJU’s father and grandfather and each time the results have been betrayal of similar agreements by North Korea, resulting in sanctions which have hurt the people more than the government.

We can be hopeful that establishing a relationship between the two leaders of these two nations will lead to the action necessary to begin normalizing relations with the DPRK and the rest of the world.

The next steps are crucial and must begin with the DPRK and under close and verifiable supervision. The DPRK nuclear arsenal must be gathered from the four corners of North Korea, where they must be disassembles, loaded on ships for transportation to designated locations outside the DPRK. The equipment and factories must be totally dissembled or destroyed so as never to be usable again. All documentation must be collected, analyzed and then destroyed as well. An international team of inspectors must be given full and complete access to the entire nuclear program, arsenal and factories to insure this is done in a verifiable fashion. Once the process has been completed, then and only then will sanctions be lifted from the DPRK and international aid and assistance begin.

In the event of any deviation from this process must be met with military might (as needed) in order to bring the DPRK back to the negotiation table.

What is also hopeful is that the American people can lay aside their political differences to get behind this president in a show of national unity to see this as a truly historic event with worldwide consequences.

Americans do not have to “pledge allegiance to the Trump” nor even like the president or the actions which some find distasteful or bring up a foul taste in their mouths, but take out the mouthwash, swish it around a few times (2 minutes) then spit it out and move on.

I challenge the members of Congress to reconsider their present stance against President Trump in order to show the American people and the world that the United States of America is “one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. So help us God” (Sound familiar?) – I am the Real Truckmaster!

The Back Story on North Korea’s Nuclear Weapons Program

The Back Story on North Korea’s Nuclear Weapons Program

The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea as it turns out is a bit of a puzzle which has been going on for quite some time. American presidents have been dealing toward stopping the North Korean military nuclear program without any success since the early 1962 with President John F. Kennedy. Never has an American President conducted face-to-face talks with the DPRK leader to negotiate a Total, Verifiable and Irreversible De-Nuclearization of North Korea, until the historical Singapore Summit between President Donald J. Trump and Leader Kim Jong Un on June 12, 2018.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_with_nuclear_weapons

Eight countries have successfully detonated nuclear weapons. Five countries are considered Nuclear Weapon States (NWS) under the terms of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). In order of acquisition of nuclear weapons: USA, Russia, UK, France and China.

Since the NPT went into force in 1970, 3 countries were not parties to the treaty have conducted nuclear tests: India, Pakistan and North Korea (withdrew from the NPT in 2003).

Israel is generally understood to have nuclear weapons, but does not acknowledge it while maintaining a policy of deliberate ambiguity. It is estimated to possess between 75 and 400 nuclear warheads.

Countries that formerly possessed nuclear weapons: South Africa (developed, then disassembled before joining NPT and former Soviet republics: Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine.

In 1963 the Soviet Union refused to help North Korea in developing nuclear weapons, as did the Chinese a bit later. Soviet engineers took part in construction of the Yongbyon Nuclear Scientific Research Center in North Korea and began conducting an IRT-2000 research reactor in1963, it became operational in1965, then upgraded to 8 MW in 1974. In 1979 North Korea began to build in Yongbyon a second research reactor, an ore processing plant and a fuel rod fabrication plant.

As the North Korean nuclear weapons program dates back to the 1980s, focusing on practical uses of nuclear energy and completion of a nuclear weapons development system, North Korea began to operate facilities for uranium fabrication and conversion and conducted high-explosive detonation tests.

In 1985 North Korea ratified the NPT but did not include the required safeguards agreement with the IAEA until 1992. In 1993 the IAEA concluded the North Korean declaration as incomplete, which they reported to the UN Security Council.

In 1994 the U.S. government signed an agreement to facilitate the supply of two light water reactors to North Korea in exchange for North Korean disarmament. The Agreed Framework fell apart in 2002 and Pakistan admitted that North Korea gained access to Pakistan’s nuclear technology in the late 1990s.

The U.S. accused North Korea of non-compliance and halted oil shipments. In 2003 North Korea withdrew from the NPT. In 2005 North Korea vowed to close the nuclear program.

On October 9, 2006 North Korea announced it had successfully conducted its first nuclear test with an underground explosion. On January 6, 2017 North Korea confirmed it had nuclear weapons.

On March 17, 2007 North Korea announced it was preparing to shut down its main nuclear facility. This was an agreement with a series of six-party talks: North Korea, South Korea, China, Russia, Japan and the USA which had begun in 2003. North Korea agreed to disable the nuclear facility in exchange for fuel aid and normalize talks with the USA and Japan. Aid was delayed from April to July, when it was confirmed the shutdown of the nuclear facility. This agreement fell apart in 2009 when North Korea launched a satellite.

In April 2009 North Korea became a full-fledged nuclear power and on May 25, 2009 a second nuclear test was conducted.

In February 2012 North Korea announced it would suspend uranium enrichment at the Yongbyon Nuclear Scientific Research Center and not conduct further tests of nuclear weapons while productive negotiations with the USA continued. This would include a moratorium on long-range missiles tests, and allowing IAEA inspectors to monitor operations. The USA prepared to ship important but limited humanitarian food aid to North Korea. In April 2012 North Korea conducted a long-range missile test and the food aid did not proceed.

In January 6, 2016 North Korea claimed to test a hydrogen bomb, which was a simulated 10 KT boosted nuclear device instead. On February 7, 2016 North Korea claimed to have put a satellite into orbit. A fifth nuclear test occurred on September 9, 2016 with an estimated 25 KT yield.

In 2017 North Korea test-launched two ICBMs and announced a further test of a hydrogen bomb.

What is clear is that North Korea has repeatedly sought outside help and once that has been achieved they have backed out of each peace agreement.

One aspect of this process that has changed was on June 12, 2018 in Singapore when Kim Jong Un met with President Donald Trump and his advisors who demanded a total dismantling, verification and removal of ALL nuclear weapons from North Korea, under threat of increased sanctions or military action.

What remains to be seen is whether this message has been effectively transmitted to the current regime in such a way that they live up to the agreement. The very lives of the people of North Korea, the entire Korean peninsula and the world hang in the balance.

There are those here in the USA and abroad that want North Korea to go back on their word or in some way violate the agreement so they can say, “Trump couldn’t make the deal stick.” I venture to say that as he has said in the past if he wasn’t sure about making the deal, he would have just walked away. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

The Case for a T4 Coalition

The Case for a T4 Coalition

The latest “news” reporting was about President Trump’s remarks to the G7 when he called them a Fools Trade coalition, then left the summit to meet with North Korea’s Kim Jung Un concerning denuclearizing the Korean peninsula.

It seems that our “allies” are only in it for the money! Their deep pockets are simply full of holes. Tariff’s on USA goods are what grease the wheels of their economy and at great expense to the American taxpayer. So think about it. America charges low tariffs while other nations charge considerably higher tariffs in return for US goods.

If that isn’t bad enough we have been the world police (often under the charter of the United Nations) and foot the bill. Who pays to transport US military and equipment to foreign soil? Even under the UN, US taxpayers?

What about our stabilizing forces on foreign soil? How much do we pay for US overseas bases and embassies? What does it cost to train and operate our military in other countries? Who foots the bill, US taxpayers?

What I propose is a global “Reset Button” like the one Obama and Hillary gave Russia, only one that works for America.

Since Germany no longer sees the USA as a reliable ally and the rest of the G7 could not get Trump to play in their sandbox (that we paid for) we should simply withdraw from the G7. Maintain the higher tariffs proposed by the president, but create our own coalition.

After the first ever summit with North Korea concludes the USA should create a Trump coalition and call it the “T”. In fact we could probably create allies with 3 nations who would like “free trade” with the United States right off the bat. We could begin with the T4 (Japan, South Korea, North Korea and the United States). Member states of the T4 would incur no tariffs between member states.

I bet that it wouldn’t take long for others to want in, say Israel, then China and Russia, and how many others? Free trade would benefit each other and boost the import and export of consumer goods, thereby helping the economies of each member state.

Without pulling any punches, America’s biggest issue would come from the American Congress, who seems to be all too happy letting the USA be sucker punched with outrageously high tariffs while charging peanuts in return. The congress is actively considering a bill to restrict the presidential power concerning tariffs. Couple that with the outspoken disunity of the Congresses lack of support for President Trump’s agenda as presented so clearly by John McCain (RINO – AZ) and his collogues in the Democrat Party it won’t take long.

Seriously, why is the USA the world’s piggy-bank or ATM with everyone having the same pin code, except the American taxpayers who foot the bill entirely without recourse? President Trump’s proposal on free trade would eliminate tariffs entirely between G7 member states and give everyone a level playing field. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

A Look Back on Benghazi, Libya

A Look Back on Benghazi, Libya

September 11, 2012 – U.S. Embassy Compound

Benghazi, Libya

What we know –

At 9:40 pm (local) on September 11, 2012 the U.S. Embassy complex in Benghazi, Libya was viscously attacked by Islamic militants who set fire to the buildings and then attacked the CIA Annex. At 11:00 pm (local) an unarmed U.S. drone arrives over Benghazi providing live feed of the attack which killed 4 Americans Ambassador Christopher J. Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods and wounded 2 more Americans. At 1:00 am (local) U.S. rescue team arrives in Benghazi from Tripoli and rescues 30 Americans.

It will soon be 6 years since the Benghazi attack and even after the Congressional hearings and reading thru various timeline and reports it is not clear where the breakdown occurred.

Clearly Obama administration placed the blame on an anti-Muslim video and even arrested the video’s creator. President Obama then called it an “Act of Terror”, but didn’t call it what it was “Terrorism”.

The Department of State was notified 20 minutes after the attack began, as the complex had been breached and a rescue team attempted to secure an aircraft in order to leave Tripoli and effect the rescue. Secretary Clinton was informed 4 ½ hours after the attack began that American’s needed to be evacuated. Hillary issues an official announcement condemning the attack and referring to the video, then sends email to Chelsea telling her it was an “Al Qaeda-like group” that attacked and killed Ambassador Stevens.

Beginning at 9:40 pm the CIA operators at the annex monitored requests for help and prepared to assist at the compound as the CIA base chief on the ground attempted to activate local Libyan security forces, yet held back CIA operators for 70 minutes grossly affecting the outcome. Almost 2 hours later embassy personnel are moved to the CIA annex, where the fighting continues. The fighting continued until almost 5:30 am at the CIA annex. The rescue team from Tripoli and Libyan forces moved survivors and KIA bodies to Benghazi airport and depart around 10:00 am. All survivors and KIA bodies were flown out of Tripoli around 7:00 pm (12 Sept) for Ramstein air base in Germany aboard C-17 aircraft.

The Pentagon activated the National Military Command Center 50 minutes after the attack began, even though the AFRICOM commander General Carter Ham upon being notified of the attack acted properly to order the diversion of a surveillance drone to hover over the Benghazi compound just 17 minutes after the attack began, he then began monitoring the situation from the NMCC at the Pentagon. The defense secretary and chairman of the JCS were not notified for 50 minutes due to having been in a pre-arraigned meeting with President Obama.

According to Pentagon officials all relevant commands and the four military branches were on a conference call roughly five hours after the attack began. The Pentagon has what is equivalent to counterterror SWAT teams nearby in Croatia (900 miles from Libya, and roughly 3 hours flying time) undergoing terrorist training, and once diverted they are heard overhead and on the radio net at Benghazi of not begin given permission to land. (This was later denied by Pentagon officials).

I didn’t get into the Hillary Clinton emails as presented by The Hill, yet I’ll include the link so you may see for yourself.

The Hill – 5-28-2015 by Ben Kamisar and Martin Matishak

http://thehill.com/policy/defense/243218-timeline-hillarys-benghazi-emails

The nearly 300 emails from Hillary Clinton released by the State Department last week are shedding new light on the administration’s mission in Libya and its response to the deadly terrorist attacks in Benghazi.

The emails include details on the work of Christopher Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to Libya who died in the Benghazi siege, and offer a glimpse into Clinton’s concerns that she might have falsely attributed the 2012 assault to backlash against an anti-Muslim video.

I did read thru the Benghazi timeline with Fact Check dot Org as they bring forth the relevant facts in this case beginning with the State Department Timeline of Events https://www.factcheck.org/2012/10/benghazi-timeline/

What I have learned from reading the reports and timeline accounts in my opinion shifts the blame from what I thought was entirely Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s and spreading it equally on Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta and General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the JCS and ultimately to President Obama. It didn’t appear that this president took any type of leadership action, but when making his official announcement promised to use all available resources to punish those responsible.

The emergency response protocols which are designed to provide rapid response in the event of emergencies such as the one in Benghazi should have been a clear signal to bring on the rescue of Americans in distress, especially when the signal comes from an American ambassador. – I am the Real Truckmaster

On Hillary Clinton Accomplishments

On Hillary Clinton Accomplishments

In a recent discussion with my Democrat friend who said that Hillary has done more good things for America than Donald Trump, so I challenged him to list Hillary Clinton’s accomplishments. He didn’t directly answer my challenge but said a Google search showed her accomplishments, so I went to Google to see for myself.

I stand corrected. Hillary Clinton has many accomplishments and although some of the websites list her as the one whom singlehandedly passed a number of bills in congress as a NY Senator. Aside from that I wanted to present and give credit where credit is due.

Hillary Clinton was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois.

In 1965 she went to Wellesby College where she graduated with honors in political science.
She graduated in 1973 from Yale Law School where she got her Juris Doctor.
- It was at Yale where she met and started dating Bill Clinton.
- Hillary Clinton’s political activity can be traced back to Yale where she served on the Board of Editors of the Yale Review of Law and Social Action.
- While at Yale she met and did her senior thesis on Saul Alinsky.

After graduation in 1973 she became a staff attorney at the Children’s Defense Fund and became a consultant for the Carnegie Council on Children. In 1974 she joined the impeachment inquiry staff of the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives during the Watergate scandal.

Bill and Hillary became the Clintons after marrying in 1975.

She was named Arkansas’ Young Mother of the Year in 1984.
She was named among the top 100 lawyers by the National Law Journal twice (1988 & 1991).

As FLOTUS 1991 – 1999

Hillary played a critical role in the passage of

The State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) and
The Adoption and Safe Families Act.
Hillary pushed her failed initiative known as Clinton Health Care which laid the foundation for the Affordable Care Act.

As Senator

In 2000 she became the first former First Lady to run for elected office and win in the state of New York.

Lost to Barack Obama but was nominated to become Secretary of State.

As Secretary of State 2009 – 2013

In 2009 Hillary Clinton became the first former First Lady to become Secretary of State in the Obama Administration.
Hillary played a crucial role in improving ties with Russia by providing them with a “Reset Button”.
Her last-minute intervention led to the signing of the historic Turkish-Armenian accord.
She went into damage control in the aftermath of Cablegate, where diplomatic analysis from world leaders and the assessment of the leaders of host countries by US diplomats were made public by WikiLeaks.
Hillary visited Myanmar (Burma) laying the foundation for re-engagement of the Southeast Asian country. First time a high level American diplomat visited the country since 1955.
In 2012 she played a crucial role in negotiating a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas with the help of Egypt.
Hillary hand-picked Chris Stevens to be Ambassador in Benghazi, Libya. During the 9/11 attack on the Embassy Annex, she failed to aid and protect the embassy staff resulting in the deaths of 4 Americans (including Ambassador Stevens) at the hands of terrorists.
She played an important role in tightening sanctions on Iran. (Cash to Iran?)
Hillary operated and maintained a private email server whereby she transmitted classified documents to unauthorized parties, damaging National Security and violating established protocols.
She was the most travelled Secretary of State visiting 112 countries.

The 2015 – 16 Clinton presidential campaign

The Clinton campaign manipulated media coverage data.
Received in advance debate questions and answers.
Renamed mid-American republicans as “a basket of deplorables” for not voting for her.
Shutting out Bernie Sanders to secure the DNC nomination.

After the 2016 Presidential election

Hillary Clinton has led the charge of the Democrat Party’s resistance movement against President Donald Trump.
She is traveling around the world on what appears as a “pity me” tour wondering “What Happened” (as the name of her book), unable to figure out how she lost the election

So for the past 34 years in the public limelight and making herself known on her quest for the highest office in the land, the presidency Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton knows politics and political action or activation and how it works to bring people together and how it divides entire societies.

I find it incredulous that she as SOS did not know about safeguarding national security and classified documents. “Losing” 34,000 emails by deleting them (her or her staff) does not make it as if they never were, and WikiLeaks was quick in letting the world know.

Nor did Hillary as SOS while putting forth the Obama administration’s foreign policy consider the legality of it. Hillary played an instrumental role in the delivery of US currency to Iran, Arms to ISIS in Syria, and Uranium One to Russia, giving the impression of collusion on many levels. Her failure during the Benghazi incident was a major black eye for the State Department and the Obama administration of which there is no excuse. Cleaning up after Cablegate should have made Hillary keenly aware of the pitfalls of failing to properly treat secret documents as they pertain to national security.

I agree that Hillary has done more to this country than President Donald Trump and she had been at it quite a bit longer. First as a Republican “Goldwater Girl”, then as a full-fledged Democrat activist Hillary has certainly made a name for herself. And according to the first one to beat her at her own game, Obama called her “The Most Qualified” for the job of president.

From Benghazi to Uranium One what I see is a woman who has still not come to terms with her run to the White House. It’s been reported that as First Lady of Arkansas Hillary was quick to cuss out her security detail and fire anyone who got in her way. The same was true as FLOTUS, she had little respect or time for others and nobody spoke out of turn around her. Hillary could say “you’re fired” faster than Donald Trump to her staff when they disappointed her.

Hillary Clinton was responsible for increasing security or closing down the embassy in Libya when requested by Ambassador Stevens at the embassy annex. Once it was under attack, the SOS should have insured that help was sent.

Hillary was directly responsible as was Barack Obama.

Orders to stand down didn’t just appear out of thin air and general officers relieved of command for attempting to deploy US forces to the aid of the embassy was not an accident either.

To put forth or allow a fake news story about a video, arrest the creator of that alleged video and during congressional hearings to say in part, “At this point what difference does it make now?” is like pouring water on a grease fire.

Every military trainee is taught that you don’t abandon your comrades. You don’t leave anybody behind.

Something to think about, the US Embassy in Libya had been attacked earlier. Ambassador Stevens had been appointed to Libya and the embassy staff occupied the embassy annex in Benghazi. Tension in the area was high, other embassies had been closed and even the Red Cross had left Libya. What purpose could it serve to keep the annex open? When attack began requests for help were ignored and rapid response was repeatedly told to stand down. Responsibility rested ultimately with POTUS and with the SOS.

It has been almost 5 ½ years and still being covered up.

When the Obama security team gathered in the war room and watched the take down of Bin Laden it is so inconceivable for them to not know about and attempt to rescue our people in Benghazi. (There were live feeds from unarmed drones overhead)!

Unacceptable!

Many American’s either don’t know or don’t care, but how can American patriotic Veterans stand up and defend Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton or Barack (Barry) Hussain Obama for the harm they have ultimately done to this country? They definitely knew better!

Accountability and justice are what is needed. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

The Deep State Within The FBI

The Deep State Within The FBI

A recent article by Nick Arama touches a deeply worrisome problem within the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which I’m sure parallels other federal agencies, the deep state within.

https://www.conservativecash.us/itd-suicide-honest-fbi-agents-afraid-testify-fear-retaliation-bureau2/?utm_source=spn

If true the question becomes how to deal with the deep state actors in law enforcement that then could be caught up in the RICO act? In that case who polices the police? Is it the infamous TV version of the “Internal Affairs” or another agency, say the CIA?

I’ve heard congressmen state that congress created the “agency” and has constitutional oversight. Yet as the article suggests a weak congress casts no fear into the FBI.

What about the presidential executive order on terminating federal workers who un-perform their jobs?

Can the president appoint a “super-cop” as director of the FBI, who has the insight AND the intestinal fortitude to weed out and arrest those deep state actors? How would one go about doing a global sting operation on the FBI, without the “rats” escaping?

Another question is how to vet agents to determine their status?

It has been noted that the “word” has come down to “button up” or face reprisals for career, family and friends. Not an idol threat to agents who’ve stepped forward under the Obama administration.

So how to severe the head of the snake, extract the bad apples and return the FBI to the premier law enforcement agency it once was?

One consideration is the Obama “headquarters” located near the White House, suspected nerve center of deep state. How is it established, organized and able to communicate and to whom do they report?

Deep state agents simply wait out elected and appointed officials, and continue to act with impunity using the same tactics of the Chicago mobsters of yesteryear.

The government of the people, by the people is doing it to the people without the average American citizen realizing that our government has been and is now under siege from within. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit

This article is short and sweet depending upon your perception of current events so I’ll take a stab at it anyway. There seems to be a fundamental difference between conservatives and liberals in America, and it’s not even about political parties anymore.

American conservatives are generally supporters of the Constitution and the Rule of Law for which it stands. Ask what they value most as an American?

They may say:

Life

Liberty

The Pursuit of Happiness

Freedom of Religion

Right to Bear Arms

Right to Vote

Freedom from Oppression

Those are just a few of the things that conservatives hold dear and many are codified by the Amendments and in the Constitution.

American liberals although voicing their patriotism seem to have a very different view of the Constitution and the Rule of Law.

When asked what they value most as an American?

They may say:

Life

Liberty

The Pursuit of Donald J. Trump

Freedom from Religion

Right to Disarm Opposing Views

Right of Illegals to Vote

Freedom to Oppress

Right to Free Stuff

Right to Resist

These are just a few of the things that liberals hold dear even though they go against the Constitution and are without regard to the Rule of Law.

Being patriotic is not simply toting the party line, or backing the current president. Patriotism is placing the good of the country before your own interests. Patriotism is placing your very life on the line in defense of the idea that for this Constitutional Republic to succeed gives out a glimmer of hope to a world that is constantly battling one dictator after another, one bad regime followed by one which is worse.

The light beaming out from the United States of America gives hope where hopelessness exists and survival is not guaranteed. American patriots search for ways to bring hope to the hopeless and stand by our motto, “IN GOD WE TRUST”!

A nation divided cannot stand and a proud people will surely fall. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Tomorrow is the day when America’s fallen soldiers are brought to the nation’s remembrance. It’s been said that we should not mourn their loss, but thank God that they lived.

From Iwo Jima to the River Kwai; the Frozen Chosen to Khe Sanh and the Hanoi Hilton; Somalia to Panama; Kuwait to Bagdad and Afghanistan; Fort Hood to Arkansas; and to VA facilities nationwide let us not forget the sacrifices given for service to God and to Country by our brothers and sisters and their families.

There are just too many battles, conflicts and wars to list here, but one that has gotten little to know attention is the “Battle of Orange” taking the lives of our Veterans every single day, so let me focus on one unrecognized and unknown Veteran.

When our nation called a young man named Mark Olson, from Montana, like so many others joined the military during the height of the Vietnam War, joined the U.S. Army. His training and skills took him to Southeast Asia where he served as an army engineer in Northeastern Thailand from 1968 – 1970.

This army engineer held a variety of jobs as a plumber, material handler and even working with a covert community action unit taking him into the jungles and at times “across the fence” into Laos. The nature of his varied jobs brought him into contact with “Orange” and other herbicides, which at the time had no special significance.

After the military life carried this army Veteran to many locations and many jobs and his health began to change, even his attitude changed and he began treatment under the VA for high blood pressure and a type of diabetes that has been attributed to the exposure to herbicides. Additional treatment began for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) which seemed to help. Linking up with online Thailand Veterans groups gave him a new purpose, assisting Veterans and researching herbicide exposure on US military facilities in Thailand during the Vietnam War.

Mark’s story is one echoed across our nation as Veterans die from exposure to herbicides which at first our nation said were not used, around troops who “were not there” in a war being successfully won until lost by public opinion.

Mark’s battle is over now. It’s been two long years since the cumulative effects of the herbicide exposure (which the VA denied his claims of presumptive exposure) coupled with the PTSD took him from us in 2016, a belated casualty of the Vietnam War. Many came home already dead from the friendly fire of “The Battle of Orange”.

Senate S-2105 and House HB-4843 are in the Veterans Committees of Congress today as an attempt to rectify CFR 38 with wording to include Thailand Veterans of the Vietnam War who suffer the effects of herbicide exposure. (Contact your Congressmen and Senators today and ask for their support of these bills). – I am the Real Truckmaster!

A Crisis in Our Democracy!

A Crisis in Our Democracy

On Friday, May 25, 2018 Hillary Clinton gave her “crisis in our democracy” speech at Harvard where they gave her the Radcliffe Medal for what she did to our country a “transformative impact on society”.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/05/25/clinton-declares-crisis-in-our-democracy-as-harvard-gives-her-medal.html

I never thought that I could agree with her more on the subject of our nation in crisis, albeit not for the reasons she stated.

As stated in the article former Secretary of State Clinton was called a “human rights champion”, a “skilled legislator” and an “advocate of American leadership” on the world stage. I could stop right there and say that I agree completely with the assessment as introduced by former Secretary of State Madeline Albright during the 25 May 2018 awards ceremony at Harvard. Yes I could, but then again I’d be lying through my teeth.

I don’t know about you, but my recollections are a bit clouded as I wonder why she hasn’t received handcuffs already?

Harvard called her a “human rights champion”, which would be true if you support her ideology, vote democrat and contribute to the Clinton Foundation.

Hard working Americans in mid-America “Fly over-Country” she called a “basket of deplorables” because they didn’t quite get her message. Women voters who didn’t vote for her she said couldn’t vote on their own because their husbands and boyfriends told them how to vote that way. She is a backer for abortions, which is the denial of basic “human rights”. What a “champion”!

Harvard called her a “skilled legislator”, which must have been her accomplishments as a New York Senator. I’m still trying to find out what those accomplishments were. Nothing sticks out except she was real buddy-buddy with now President Donald Trump back then.

Harvard called her an “advocate of American Leadership” on the world stage. They must be recalling her accomplishments as Secretary of State under President Barack Obama.

What I recall of her exploits as President Obama’s Secretary of State when she orchestrated arms to ISIS in Syria, then “handpicked” and sent Ambassador Chris Stevens to Libya, possibly a ruse to recover the weapons before they could be used against American forces.

Up to 9/11/2012 security had been reduced and requests for increased security rejected as our Embassy Annex in Benghazi was under direct attack and rescue requests went unanswered, under Secretary Clinton’s watch. Leaving four dead American patriots in Benghazi.

It could have been the selling of America’s Uranium One reserve to Russia (the real Russian collusion) before she was replaced by John Kerry.

It’s almost funny how Hillary Clinton in poking fun at the president, talked about leaders who seek to polarize the nation, delegitimize news outlets and also spread fake news.

To me it seems that Hillary was talking about herself in a positive spin, discounting her “deplorables” remarks, or the “assistance” she received during the campaign debates. The Clinton minions on CNN must have not really been trying to hurt candidate Trump, but simply to help him not get elected.

The Democrat Party along with Hillary Clinton, the snowflakes and company all had a mental break down over the fact that Donald Trump won the election. This mental breakdown characterized by “safe spaces”, Kleenex boxes, Diaper Pin symbols all were symptoms of the Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) which polarized the nation and perpetuated the spreading of fake news.

It is this line from Hillary Clinton which clearly shows her inner thoughts and motives, “Attempting to erase the line between fact and fiction, truth and reality is a core feature of authoritarianism”. As in her many speeches Hillary has painted a grim outlook for the state of America as she continues to search for the reason she lost the 2016 election.

Hillary sees herself as a “resilience fighter” and suggests finding ways to disagree respectfully (as I am doing with this article). She encouraged voting and American’s must exercise their right to vote, while seriously vetting each political candidate to insure they will represent the best in America.

Hillary suggests subscribing to a newspaper? Is she planning on taking a new career field in print journalism and maybe starting something like the “Clinton Foundation Times”? Well she is a published author and you can still buy any one of her books from “It takes a Village” to “What Happened” at bookstores everywhere, (or not).

Hillary called for having empathy between people of political divides and praised the students at Parkland for advocating for gun control. What she didn’t talk about was the “spontaneous” nationwide protest “marches” that young American students conducted at the urging and insistence of teachers and school administrators pushing the far left agenda on gun control.

There has been no mention of the students nationwide who walked out of school in favor of the right to bear arms in support of the Second Amendment. How many of the very recent school shooting and other incidents involving an armed shooter where the shooter was either neutralized or taken into custody have students NOT been rioting over gun control? Even when the lawful use of a gun by a registered gun owner or a school resource officer or a teacher that stopped the attacker?

There is a crisis in our nation, which by the way is not a democracy, but a Constitutional Republic. The Constitution of the United States is the “Rule of Law” in our land.

Honoring the Constitution, obeying the rule of law and enforcing America’s laws are the way to bring this country back together. Providing a safe and secure environment throughout the nation, and closely looking at immigration through the lens of contribution and assimilation are good ways to start.

Hillary Clinton fears that she would lose the nation? Lose a country she never had in the first place?

My fear was that had Hillary won the election her ideology and her selfish temper would have ruined the country and brought about irreparable damage. The election of 2016 truly saved the nation that I love and the world from ruin. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
