For 11 months, there has been daily “slanderous” and unsubstantiated charges, by the left of center liberal media establishment’s “propaganda”, that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia, yet nearly a year later, there is still not a single shred of concrete evidence proving there was a collusion by the Trump campaign with Russia in order to defeat Hillary Clinton for the presidency.  

The unvarnished truth is that an inept and ineffective Hillary Clinton neither had a Presidential Campaign Theme that the press or that no one understood the meaning of, nor did she have an economic agenda—“Hillary defeated Hillary.”  The “False Russian Scandal” is a creation of Nazi Collaborator Soros, the New Democratic-Marxist-Muslim Party, and the Obama’s Organization For America. 

 

Last week, the Secretary of the…

Each year on Memorial Day we honor American Patriots who gave the last full measure of devotion in service to the Republic, so their fellow Americans could live their lives in freedom.  

Today and every day, we honor American Combat Veterans who gave up their tomorrows, and we honor members of the US Armed Forces, who are often separated from their loved ones for long periods of time, as they go into “Harm’s Way.”  

The nation also solemnly honors Gold Star families for their loss.  Those families feel the loss of their loved ones daily!   

Today and every day, we also honor all Veterans who served in the defense of the Republic.  At one point in their lives, Veterans wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America” for an amount “up to and including their lives.”  America owes them a debt of…

In an unusual event in history, on May 21, 2017, the President of the United States addressed an extraordinary meeting of the leaders of 50 predominately Muslim nations who assembled in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.  In a forceful, focused, and coherent speech of clarity and conviction, President Trump, projected the economic and military strength of the United States, and asked the 50 leaders to unite with the United States to stamp out Islamic extremism, drive out Islamic Terrorist from their countries, and work with the United States to create a peaceful world.  He stated that Iran, the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world, is behind a great deal of the terrorist violence in the Middle East.  

The text of the speech (in the below listed article), signaled a turning point in American Diplomacy, resulted in a $…

For the first time in 241 years, the Republic and the Presidency is under a serious assault from within. This assault is being perpetrated by career bureaucrats in Washington, members of the intelligence community violating Federal Laws by leaking classified information, and by group of seditious organizations, listed below, who are determined to destroy a duly elected President of the United States. 

 

Those organizations and individuals include, but are not limited to, Nazi Collaborator George Soros’ Pro-Communist “Open Society Foundation”, 100 Progressive & Leftist organizations that Soros funds for millions of dollars annually, the Marxist Leninist Communist Workers Party’s front, “ANSWER.”  “ANSWER” was funded by “Open Society Foundation”, the Communist Party “Progress Unity Fund”, Al Sharpton’s “National…

Former Special Agent John Guandolo, FBI, US Naval Academy Class of 1989, (USMC) in the below listed recording, discusses how dangerous the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) is to the Republic.  CAIR was founded in 1994 by the Muslim Brotherhood (MB).  Its subversive activities, guided by the MB, are dangerous to the survival of the Republican form of government as outlined in the US Constitution.  The below listed recording is an extremely important recording and we are encouraging recipients to distribute to those in their address book who oppose replacing the US Constitution with Islamic Sharia Law.  The MB created Al Q’ieda, ISIS, Hamas, CAIR, and spawned many other terrorist groups.  They are all Radical Islamic Terrorist groups who have the same objectives—to destroy Western Civilization from within. … More

Back when music was so wholesome and awesome.  It was during World War II that a song helped immortalize Kalamazoo, Michigan. The Glenn Miller Orchestra introduced ‘I’ve Got a Gal in Kalamazoo’ in the 1942 musical ‘Orchestra Wives’ starring George Montgomery, Ann Rutherford, Cesar Romero, a young Jackie Gleason, with a dance number by the Nicholas Brothers. 

With a moderate swing tempo, writer Mack Gordon and composer Harry Warren produced a number one song capturing the wartime mood of a fella longing for his girl back home. 

Originally recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra with vocals by Tex Behnke, Marion Hutton, and the Modern Aires; it was on the charts for 20 weeks, and garnered an Academy Award nomination as best song. 

As a result of the popularity of the tune, there really was a gal in Kalamazoo…

The San Diego Unified School District formed a partnership with CAIR, a Terrorist Front Group, to become the first School District in the nation to approve an unhealthy indoctrination of American students about Islam and how to become 100% compliant with anti-Constitutional Sharia Law.  

 

The “Flawed Judgement” of the Inept San Diego Unified School District Board to partner with CAIR, in order to indoctrinate American students in Islam and anti-Constitutional Sharia Law is sufficient reason to initiate a recall election for the 4 Board Members who approved the reckless policy.  A recall would ultimately lead to a vote to remove the 4 Board members who exercised poor judgment and should be removed from office.  The policy initiated by CAIR would undermine the San Diego’s Public School system.

The below listed article is a firsthand historic account by one of the 16 pilots who participated in the “Tokyo Raid” against Imperial Japan; the raid was led by Lt Col James “Jimmy” Doolittle, US Army Air Corps. The “Tokyo Raid” was launched in retaliation for the December 7, 1941 surprise attack on Pearl Harbor by the Imperial Forces of Japan.  Seventy-five years later, Americans are still awed by the sheer courage, determination, and grit of the 80 Army Air Corps crew members who participated in the “Tokyo Raid” on April 18, 1942.

 

Admiral William “Bull” Halsey, USN, was in Command of Task Force 18 which was directed to approach within 480 nautical miles of Japan to launch the “Tokyo Raid” on Imperial Japan.  A Japanese picket boat was spotted 650 nautical miles from Japan; it was sunk by naval gunfire from…

It has been over 75 years since Admiral Husband E. Kimmel, USNA 1904, USN was Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Fleet, when on December 7, 1941, the Imperial Forces of Japan attacked the US Armed Forces in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.  After the Roberts Commission investigated the events surrounding the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, Admiral Kimmel was reduced in rank to Rear Admiral, and was subsequently Honorably Discharged in that grade.

 

Of the nine official investigations of the surprise attack by the Imperial Forces of Japan on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the Roberts Commission was the only investigation that charged Admiral Kimmel with "dereliction of duty."  Indeed, several of the other investigations made specific findings to the contrary.  Recent writings on the subject of…

If you click on the below listed link, you will be able to view President Donald J. Trump’s UN Ambassador, Niki Haley, make a short statement at the UN.  Israel recently entered into a defensive alliance with Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Oman, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates.   

The defensive alliance was prompted by the Obama administration's very dangerous Nuclear Weapons Agreement with Iran that is allowing Iran to develop an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) that will be able to strike the US with a nuclear weapon, which the Obama administration allowed them to develop.

The below listed video is one of the most important videos on the terrorist threat to the US; it explains why Muslim Extremist Groups (like ISIS & Al Q’ieda Sunni terrorists), the Muslim Brotherhood International Terrorist Group & their front groups, and Iran’s Hizballah Shiite Sleeper Cells in the US (collectively referred to as “Radical Islamic Terrorists”), are working together to defeat, what they consider a weak, divided, and vulnerable America, and why they believe they will be successful in destroying America from within, and will replace the US Constitutional form of government with a Sharia Law based government.  

 

Over the past 80 years, when the Nazi and Communist ideologies tried to destroy America from within, America mobilized its resources under the leadership of 12 US Presidents to defeat…

Since the 1920s Russian Communists have tried to destabilize US elections, as they are currently trying to destabilize elections in France.  Russian Communists have been very successful in supporting candidates for Congress in the US who want to bring down the US Constitutional form of government.  Over the last 100 years, Russia promoted the philosophies of candidates in the US that resulted in the election of 70 Democratic members of Congress who are Socialists, Leftists, Communists, Progressives, and Muslims (you can easily obtain their names by making a request of Google for the “Socialists, Communists, and Progressives in Congress”).

The goal for all elections in the US should be to prevent the Russians, China, groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, and any other foreign power from influencing US Congressional and…

The 112 endorsed Combat Veterans For Congress and the Board of Directors of the Combat Veterans For Congress PAC are pleased with the Senate’s confirmation and appointment of four American Patriots who have supported our efforts over the years, to fill four Cabinet positions in the Trump administration.

We congratulate neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson as the Republic’s Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Cong Ryan Zinke Cdr-USN (Ret) (SEAL) (R-MT-1) as the Republic’s Secretary of the Interior, Governor Rick Perry (USAF) as the Republic’s Secretary of Energy, and Cong Mike Pompeo (USA) (USMA ’86) (R-KS-4) as the Republic’s Director of the CIA.

President Donald J. Trump is very fortunate to have such Honorable American Patriots leading four government departments in support of his efforts to make…

The Obama administration sliced the Pentagon budget by 52% over 8 years, putting the security of the Republic and American lives at risk.  A reduced budget imposed upon the US Navy in 2009 began the decline in the US Navy’s strength.  Then the Budget Control Act of 2011 further weakened the US Navy.  The passage of Obama’s Sequestration in 2012 by Republican and Democrat leaders in Congress, gutted the US Navy.  Sequestration could never have diminished the size of Navy’s Fleet to the pre-World War I number of ships, if Republican and Democratic Leaders in Congress hadn’t cooperated very closely with Obama to retain Sequestration, each year, every year, for 5 years.  

Obama appointee holdovers in government are seriously negatively affecting the readiness of the US Navy and hampering the execution of Naval Special… More

God Bless the noble souls of those “Honorable” US Marines from the Fifth Division who fought on Iwo Jima, gave the last full measure of devotion to their country on Iwo Jima, those who raised the flag atop Mount Suribachi pictured below, those “Honorable” US Marines who have gone before us, those “Honorable” US Marines still in combat in Afghanistan today, and those who continue to defend and protect the US Constitution!!!  Semper Fidelis.

Nine appointees in the Obama administration, from one or more intelligence agencies, possibly NSA, CIA, or DNI, were involved in leaking sensitive information to the press, that resulted in General Mike Flynn’s resignation as the National Security Advisor.  The 9 individuals were political activists opposed to President Trump; they released transcripts of recorded phone conversations to the press of General Flynn conversations with the Russian Ambassador to the US (by law, the name of any US citizen in such a classified transcript must be redacted, hiding their identity from the press).  

 

General Flynn did not violate any laws in his conversations with the Russian Ambassador, and there was no collusion during the election.  Unfortunately, General Flynn failed to provide President Trump with complete…

One of the strengths of the United States is the Republic has been a melting pot for 240 years. The United States is made up of many cultures, including American citizens of Arabic descent who have served Honorably as members of the US Armed Forces since the turn of the 20th Century.  The estimated 7 million American citizens of Arabic descent have always maintained excellent relations with their relatives and many of their associates in friendly Arabic countries. 

 

American citizens of Christians and Muslims religious backgrounds, who are from Lebanese, Armenian, Assyrian, Jordanian, Moroccan, Egyptian, Bharani, Saudi Arabian, Turkish, Afghan, Omani, Syrian, Kurdish, etc. cultures have stood shoulder to shoulder with other Americans serving in the US Armed Forces, opposing ISIS Radical Islamic Terrorists…

In the last 10 days, American citizens have been bombarded with fake news and outright lies, stating that there has never been terrorist attacks in the United States by foreign nationals from the 7 Muslim majority nations harboring Radical Islamic Terrorists, and that it is unconstitutional to prevent foreign nationals from entering the United States (6 times in the last 135 years the US legally prevented foreign nationals from entering the US; details are listed below).  

 

The fake news and intentional lies have been promulgated by the Democrat leaders in Congress, most national network news anchors (excluding FOX), the left of center liberal media establishment, the Muslim Brotherhood, and left leaning Hollywood celebrities who are making speeches and supporting massive demonstrations opposing the temporary…

Hundreds of thousands of travelers enter the United States every day, and out of 193 nations in the world, on Sunday, 325,000 passengers traveled to the US, and only 109 travelers from 7 terrorist-sponsoring countries were detained on Sunday in compliance with President Trump’s Executive Orders.  The Executive Orders imposed a 120 day moratorium on refugee resettlement, and a 30 day ban on those entering on visas from 7 terrorist-sponsoring countries.  Of the 109 detainees, less than a dozen were restricted from staying in the United States.  

 

The Trump administration has been sued for the “Terrorist Ban,” restricting foreigners from the 7 terrorist-sponsoring nations from entering the US.  The 7 terrorist sponsoring nations of Syria, Somalia, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Libya, and Sudan have government…

Radical Leftist, Progressives, members of La Raza & SEIU, Socialists, the Muslim Brotherhood, Communists, 70 Democratic members of Congress, Soros Open Society Foundation paid demonstrators, and the left of center liberal media establishment have been demonstrating and complaining hysterically about President Donald J. Trump’s Illegal Alien initiatives.  The initiatives are designed to stop the massive influx of millions of Illegal Aliens and Middle East and Africa refugees who have been entering the United States over the last 8 years.  

 

For 8 years, the FBI was not allowed to vet the refugees from the Middle East and Africa to determine if they had ISIS terrorist ties.  The 94 Radical Islamic Terrorist attacks that killed hundreds of American citizens in the United States (2/3rd  of them in the…

Along with every living US President, every US Senator, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and over 63 million American citizens, the Combat Veterans For Congress PAC celebrated the peaceful transfer of power from the Obama administrations to the Trump administration.   

 

As called for in the US Constitution, the 58 Inaugurations of each new US President, have always been a civil transfer of power for 228 years, and those 58 Inaugurations have never been political events.  We trust and pray that the newly elected Congress will support the American people by cooperating with President Donald J. Trump to:

 

     (1) seal the wide open southern border

     (2) enact new policies to protect the lives of American citizens who have repeatedly suffered through 94 Radical Islamic Terrorists attacks inside the United States

     (3) rebuild the…

Since April 30, 1789, when George Washington was inaugurated in New York City, as the first President of the Republic, there have been 57 peaceful celebration of the inaugurations of the President of the United States.  Over the 228 years, the 57 inaugurations have never been about the man or his campaign, the celebration of the inauguration has always been about the “peaceful” transition of the “office.” 

 

Today of the 535 members of the US Congress, close to 70 Democratic members of Congress are Socialists, Leftists, Progressives, and fellow travelers with the Communist Party USA and the Muslim Brotherhood (an International Terrorist organization).  As of today, 60 Democratic drama queen members of Congress, many in the group of 70 previously referred to, have refused to attend the inauguration and…

For 8 years Obama failed to condemn the genocide perpetrated by Al Q’ieda, ISIS, and members of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) who continued to butcher over 200,000 Syrian and Assyrian Christians.  Current media reports state Obama is trying to salvage, what he calls, “His Legacy.”  Obama will never be able to salvage “His Legacy”, because he turned a blind eye to the genocide that Al Q’ieda, ISIS Radical Islamic Terrorist, and members of the MB perpetrated against Syrian and Assyrian Christians.  Obama repeatedly ignored pleas by 56 US Congressmen, on both sides of the aisle, to provide Christian families with small arms weapons to protect themselves.

We wish you a Healthy, Prosperous, and Happy New Year!

 

In the New Year we look forward to the following changes; the hollowed out US Armed Forces will be strengthened, there will be an improvement in the health care of Veterans, the US economy will recover at a 3% growth rate, that the massive violations of US Federal Immigrations Laws will finally cease, the repeated violations of the US Constitution will end, that there will be new affordable health care insurance program for all Americans, political correctness will be replaced by Freedom of Speech, and the subtle attacks against Judeo Christian religious beliefs in the US Armed Forces will no longer be promoted.

The demographic that may well have decided the presidential election of 2016, most probably came down to “The Angry Man.”  For 8 years his belief systems, religion, and patriotism had been undercut and marginalized by Progressives, Leftists, Socialists, Liberals, Muslim Brotherhood Front Groups, the Communists Party USA, Feminists Groups, and the left of center liberal media establishment.  

Radical interests groups like Black Lives Matter, Occupy Wall Street, ANSWER, Anarchists, and other Leftist Groups funded by George Soros Open Society Foundation, have been trying to reshape modern American politics, with the goal of destroying the conservatives principles upon which the Reagan Revolution was founded, but their radical policies were soundly rejected by the American voters in the 2016 election of Donald J.

The surprise attack on Pearl Harbor by the Imperial Forces of Japan, executed by Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto’s strike plan “Z”, commenced at 7:48 AM Hawaiian Time.  The base was attacked by 353 Imperial Japanese fighters, bomber, and torpedo planes in two waves, launched from six Japanese aircraft carriers.  All eight U.S. Navy battleships were damaged, with four sunk.  All but the USS  Arizona (BB-39) were later raised, and six were returned to service and went on to fight the Imperial Forces of Japan in the WWII.  The Japanese also sank or damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, an anti-aircraft training ship, and one minelayer.  In addition, 188 U.S. aircraft were destroyed; 2,403 Americans were killed and 1,178 others were wounded.  However, important base installations such as the power station, shipyard, maintenance, and fuel and torpedo storage facilities, as well as the…
