The United States Constitution is clear. The President is the commander in chief of the armed forces. The framers of the Constitution knew what they were doing…ensuring civilian control of our military, which meant ultimately that the people controlled the military. Article II, Section 2, Clause 1: The President shall be Commander in Chief of…

The Morning Report 9/21/21
Good morning, kids. Tuesday and first up, a clarification. The headline for yesterday’s post, “#HaitiHasNoHomeHere” came from the fertile mind of commenter “Joe Biden,” not me. Apologies for not giving proper credit with the post. Now on to the meshugas and dissolution at hand. Well, our borders have been erased and we’re being flooded with…

Good morning, kids. Start of a new week and the autumnal equinox. As usual, there are a number of things popping all at once, each in its own right that under normal circumstances would be major news, so it’s difficult to try to zero in on just one thing. That said, the catastrophe at our…
France’s Hissy-Fit, Australia’s Duplicitousness, And Biden’s Drooling…A Pox On All Their Houses!
America and The United Kingdom (and its convicts) have been military and social allies since before World War I. Although we are separated by oceans and a common language, the relationship has been a powerful one. While our relationship with France has been benign for far longer…since the Revolutionary War!, France has occasionally acted at…

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and the virtually constant conflagrations from multiple crises since demented Siren Head Joey Bivalve was installed in the Oval Office continue to rage out of control. Most notably, the southern border is out of control, Vanilli Milley struts, preens and gloats instead of begs and pleads for his miserable life,…

Good morning, kids. Today is Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. Wishing an easy fast for my fellow Tribesman. So, in the face of our top military leader admitting to treason on top of aiding and abetting a criminal and now clearly mentally impaired commander-in-chief commit the greatest strategic blunder (arguably intentionally) in history, the…

Good morning, kids. Wednesday and a quote attributed to the great 18th century British writer Samuel Johnson comes to mind in the wake of Gavin Newsom’s recall. Upon hearing of a widower about to be remarried soon after the death of his first wife to whom he had been unhappily wed, Johnson remarked that it…
The Morning Rant
I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve. — Isoroku Yamamoto* In just a few generations, American Exceptionalism has morphed from the military and industrial juggernaut that fought a two-front war across oceans, supplied its allies with war materiel, and then rebuilt the losers…

Good morning, kids. Tuesday and I suppose the big story is today’s California recall election in which a majority of citizens will once again have their votes stolen and Gavin Newsom, the sleazy, pompous, brilliantine criminal dictator of what is arguably now a third world Latin American banana republic will more than likely retain his…
The Morning Report 9/13/21
Good morning, kids. Monday and as we look back 20 years now to the shock, grief, despair, numbness and then anger in the wake of what happened on what started off as a bright beautiful morning, I think of where we are today, especially in the context of the words uttered by George W. Bush…
