Yes, I know she’s always been way too liberal in her views for most conservative tastes, but I don’t care. She served her time in uniform honorably and well, and I always have liked her, even when I didn’t necessarily agree with something she was doing/saying/advocating.

Be all that as it may, here’s just another excellent reason for holding Ms Gabbard in highest regard.

 

SharrelAnne responds:

 

The obligatory “Show more” workaround for SharrelAnne’s response to Tulsi:

You answered the call to serve this country just like he did. You know what it means to put on the uniform, to stand willing to give everything in defense of this nation, and that makes this gesture mean even more to our family.

Seeing you standing there at his grave honestly brought me to tears. Thank you for honoring Alan, for saying his name, and for reminding me that there are still people in this country who have not forgotten the cost of freedom. 🇺🇸

Bless ’em both, I say. All three (3) of them, rather.

Update! As you’d no doubt expect from the man:

Lots, lots, LOTS more here, including a bit of obnoxious sniveling in the follow-ups about Hegseth and “photo ops” and such which, as ever, says way more about said sniveler than it ever could about the target(s) of their misbegotten ire. As the article’s title says, Tulsi, Hegseth, and the others have surely gone above and beyond the call today, and the CF cap is duly doffed to them.

Updated update! Repellent Nazi liar and all-round douchetool Graham Platner: the flipside of the Tulsi/Hegseth coin.

Hero Purple Heart vet who Graham Platner said ‘didn’t deserve to live’ slams Dems backing him: ‘Say that to my face’
WASHINGTON — The heroic, Purple Heart-winning Army veteran, who US Senate hopeful Graham Platner sneered in a screed on his burner Reddit account didn’t deserve to live, tore into the Democrats for continuing to back the Maine candidate.

Pfc. Ted Daniels, who captured viral helmet footage of himself moving into open terrain to draw Taliban fire away from his squad in 2012, said Democrats backing Platner owe his children an apology.

“I’m very thick-skinned, and he said it,” Daniels told The Post. “I don’t want an apology, and any apology from him [Graham] at this point would definitely not be sincere.”

True, dat. From all we’ve seen of the creepy, crawly pissant Platner to date, any apology he puked forth at any time, to anybody, about anything at all, would definitely not be sincere either. Kudos and a hearty “Right the fuck ON” to PFC Daniels for not taking any shit off the suppurating asswart.

Give ’em hell, Hegs!

Having had to wait so very damned long for it only makes it all the sweeter.

Pete Hegseth tears into DEI, ‘woke military’ in fiery West Point graduation speech
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth tore into leaders who’ve tried to turn the military into “woke Princeton” and stained the American spirit, ripping DEI in a fiery speech to graduating cadets at West Point Saturday.

With President Trump considering renewing strikes against Iran, Hegseth directed his toughest talk toward military leaders who backed diversity programs he said were sapping the Armed Forces of its strength.

Opening his remarks on a rainy day at the storied military academy overlooking the Hudson River, the secretary slammed the woke agenda.

“We saw woke and weak leaders trying to make West Point look like woke Princeton, which happens to be my long lost and lost alma mater,” he said.

“They tried to introduce diversity and inclusion studies. They hire professors who advocated for anti-American ideologies right here in these halls, but no more.”

Hegseth, who was admitted to the military academy but picked the Ivy League school where he joined the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps instead, said prior leaders “embraced the DEI craze” and endangered soldiers.

“Let me be perfectly clear, you are not an ‘army of one’, and you are certainly not an army of woke. You are an American army, an army of warriors,” he said.

Speaking at an institution that trained both Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee, Hegseth also took a shot at woke efforts to scrub military bases and monuments of confederates generals who led the rebellion against the Union.

“You’ve seen standards lowered, you’ve seen an obsession with race and gender, you’ve seen the watering down of discipline, codes weakened, and traditions tossed aside in the name of political correctness,” he fumed.

Then he railed against “statues taken down, paintings placed in the basement. I’m here to tell you the slow slide here at West Point, and across the United States Army, is over,” Hegseth promised.

He spoke of the phrase “our diversity is our strength,” which the secretary called “the single dumbest phrase in military history.”

Oh HELL yeah! The bitter, anguished shitlib tears pouring forth because of Secretary Hegseth’s straightforward, common-sensical speech will taste like the most heavenly ambrosia to every Real American.

A little history

Our good friend KT (of AoSHQ Pet Thread fame, among other notable things) has posted a truly awesome article memorializing the incomparable John Adams and the Marquis de Lafayette, which includes among other less well-known factoids this ratcheer:


Wow. Truly, there were giants among us mere mortals back then. GREAT work, KT!

Update! Upon further reflection, no way can I leave out the info provided about Lafayette in T’s piece.

Gilbert du Motier, the Marquis de Lafayette, was one of the wealthiest men in France (which is to say in the world), when, inspired by the words of the American Declaration of Independence, he left the comfort and security of his home, traveled to America, and offered his service to the cause of American liberty. At age 19, he was commissioned major general, to this day the youngest person ever to hold that rank in the American army.

Lafayette soon became one of General Washington’s most trusted and capable generals. Having been orphaned at a young age, Lafayette greatly admired Washington, who became a father figure for him. And likewise, Lafayette became like a foster son to Washington, who had no biological children of his own.

To the end of his long and celebrated life, Lafayette remained devoted to his adopted county. He named his only son George Washington, and he named a daughter Virginia.

Having returned to France after the war ended, Lafayette become a key player in the cause of French liberty, and he remains a revered hero in that country as well. He was the principal author of the French Declaration of the Rights of Man, modeling it on the American Declaration of Independence.

Lafayette was 67 years old when, in 1824, President James Monroe and Congress invited him to come to the United States in honor of the nation’s 50th birthday. After Washington’s death in 1799, he had given up his dream of someday returning to Virginia and living near Mount Vernon, but Lafayette was delighted at the invitation and welcomed the opportunity to return to the country he had helped.

At age 76, Lafayette died at his home in Paris. At his request, his son George Washington Lafayette sprinkled the soil from Bunker Hill over his father’s coffin as it was lowered into the ground. An American flag has flown continually over the grave ever since.

When word of Lafayette’s death reached America there was an outpouring of grief that equaled that when Washington died. Flags were lowered to half mast, John Quincy Adams delivered a eulogy in a joint session of Congress attended by the president, the cabinet, the Supreme Court justices, and the American diplomatic corps. Twenty-four-gun salutes were fired by every American naval ship and at every American military post, followed by a single cannon shot every half-hour afterwards until sunset. For six months American officers wore black armbands, and American citizens wore mourning dress for thirty days.

Hundreds of places in America, including at least 36 cities and towns, are named in honor of Lafayette.

Marie-Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de La Fayette, the “Hero of Two Worlds,” died on May 20, 1834, one hundred ninety-two years ago today.

Like I said: GIANTS. What a marvelous, inspiring story.

Words of wisdom

America’s GoAT USSC Justice (and it ain’t even close), the incomparable Clarence Thomas, says it loud and clear.

Clarence Thomas SLAMS progressivism as threat to Americans’ natural rights
Progressivism “requires of the people a subservience and weakness incompatible with a constitution premised on the transcendent origin of our rights.”

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas spoke at the University of Texas in Austin on Wednesday night and he lashed out at the horrible political philosophy of progressivism, saying that it’s anathema to the Declaration of Independence and the goals set forth in that document. He praised the ethos of the Founding Fathers and urged Americans to not be “passive spectators” in American liberty, but to uphold the Declaration of Independence.

He spoke about his career, realizing early on in Washington, DC, that he had to define his principles and their worth. “What are your principles worth to you?” He said he asked himself.

“My answer then was the same I would give today: they are worth life itself. What are those principles? They are the same principles in the Declaration. They were bequeathed to me by my grandparents and reinforced by my nuns and my faith.

“In God’s eyes, we are equal. We are all equally created in the image and likeness of God. We are all endowed with the natural rights to life, liberty and happiness. Our rights and our dignity are inherent. They do not come from others, and they do not come from the government. And our government derives its legitimacy and its authority from our consent. We do not derive our rights from our government.

“The primacy of our rights in relation to our government is crucial in reconciling the mortal words of the Declaration with our Constitution and our history. None of our rights come from the government.

“All of the government’s authority comes from our consent, and the structure and limited role of government is to assure that it does not exceed the authority to which we have consented or intrude on our natural rights. The Constitution is the means of government. It is the Declaration that announces the ends of government.

“The Constitution achieves this purpose by protecting our natural rights and our liberties from concentrated power and excessive democracy. Our Constitution creates a separation of powers and Federalism, truly for the first time in modern history, to prevent the government from becoming so strong that it threatens our natural rights.”

Preach it, sir. Gonna be a dark day indeed when Justice Thomas steps down and retires, not only for liberty-oriented Americans but for liberty its own self. Wise, steadfast, and clear-eyed; learned, eloquent, level-headed, and unflappable; steeped in the history, lore, and principles of our nation’s Founding; the man truly gets it, in a way that no other Justice ever quite has. Mere words can’t express how very fortunate Real Americans are to have him, particularly in these most parlous of times.

How it is fucking DONE

Many, many heartfelt kudos for these brave young men.


These badass ROT-SEE cadets seem to have internalized the hard-to-take lesson that, with attacks committed by certain favored deranged-troglodyte groups (ie, Leftists, feral urban niggers, Moslems, AWFLs), decent folks have been in effect abandoned by the “proper authorities,” and are now fully and completely on their own. There will be no help coming, and therefore if they want to hold onto not just their uninjured hides but their very lives they’re just going to have to take matters into their own hands—in this instance, quite literally.

Kinda underscores the whole raison d’être of us 2A absolutists, don’t it?

Well, Sucks To Be a Mullah Right Now

Hat tip: Sarah Hoyt at Insty – Instapundit

Nicely done list of Iranian atrocities committed against Americans. There are literally hundreds more. Iran has been at war with the USA for almost a half century. Iran has been a russian proxy. The USA has just joined the war, decided to put an end to the iranian regime.

1983: proxies for the Iranian mullahs car-bomb the US embassy in Beirut, Lebanon. 17 American killed.

1983: proxies for the Iranian mullahs car-bomb the US Marine barracks in Lebanon. 241 US servicemen killed.

1984: proxies for the Iranian mullahs kidnap the CIA station chief in Lebanon, and spend 15 months torturing him — let me rephrase that: they tortured this man with electric drills, hammers, electricity, pliers, and anything else they thought of; and in-between torture sessions he was locked in a cage too small to stand, and too narrow to lay down for a year and three months. He was reduced to an animal, mind gone, gibbering in terror, before his heart finally gave out under torture. We know this, because the Iranian proxies sent us video recordings of the torture sessions.

1984: proxies for the Iranian mullahs hi-jacked aeroplanes, singled out American passengers, and murdered them.

1988: proxies for the Iranian mullahs kidnapped the head of the United Nations Peacekeeping Mission in Lebanon — an American — and tortured him. They sent us a video of his murder via slow strangulation when they got bored with the torture.

1996 to 1998: proxies for the Iranian mullahs car-bombed US Airforce housing in Saudi Arabia, and United States embassies in Tanzania and Kenya, killing Americans.

2003 to 2011: the mullahs set up a factory making Explosively-Formed Penetrators of a Russian design, and trained militiamen in their use for the specific purpose of attacking US servicemembers in Iraq. They succeeded in killing or injuring several hundred US troops with these EFPs.

The mullahs have attempted attacks inside America’s border — the most famous of which being the 2022 stabbing of Salman Rushdie in New York, where he lost an eye.

The Iranian mullahs have used the natural resources of Iran to become the #1 sponsor of International terror since 1979. If there is a terror group killing innocents, wrecking economies, and generally disrupting the world, there’s a pretty good chance the mullahs gave that terror group a wad of cash.

That’s a very brief account of the butcher’s bill in American lives directly laid at the feet of the mullahs in Iran.

For the carrier Gerald Ford and its crew, all too literally.

One of the most formidable weapons in the Navy is its largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford. Reports are that it’s already within striking distance of Iran, if need be. At a cost of about $13 billion, you’d expect it to have everything needed to wage war in the 21st century, and it does. Except that it has one problem – its toilets are broken.

The most recent reports are that for a ship that houses a crew of over 4,000, there are only 650 toilets on board. Of those, more and more of them are just not working.

According to a recent article in Navy Times, “The complications primarily involve the Ford’s vacuum collection, holding and transfer system, or VCHT, which transports and disposes wastewater by sucking fecal matter through pipes using pressure.”

Reports are that the three big issues are: Ship designers simply didn’t plan on enough commodes for the size of the crew on the ship. This means 45-minute waits on a good day. The second issue is that the way the plumbing system is designed, if one valve for one toilet breaks down in that hinky vacuum collection system, all the toilets in that department stop working. The third problem is that most of the critical repair operations to the system can only be done when the ship is at port.

As more sailors rely on fewer toilets, this is expected to stress the system and cause even more shutdowns.

Not to even mention how severely stressed the sailors must be by it.

The Ford was launched in October 2013, and so if you want, you could blame the Obama administration. That’s always fun and appropriate, even here. But when it comes to the many years it takes, and all the people and companies involved in building a single aircraft carrier, there is probably enough blame to go around.

The Navy Times revealed that a 2020 Government Accountability Office report “pointed out that the sewage pipes woven throughout the [Ford] were too narrow to properly serve the flushes of the 4,000-plus crew members onboard… To unclog the toilets, the Navy has been forced to spend $400,000 per flush of a unique acidic chemical designed to flush out and unburden the strained pipes.”

So as reports spread of problems in the bowels of our largest aircraft carrier, the mullahs in Iran may be breathing easier for now… or maybe not.

Heh. I see what you did there, ya big turd.

The future is here!

Or at Hill AF Base, at any rate.

America Airlifts Its Nuclear Future as Pentagon Delivers Microreactor in Historic C-17 Mission
A C-17 Globemaster III lifted off from March Air Reserve Base in California on Sunday carrying cargo that would have seemed like science fiction a generation ago: a next-generation nuclear reactor, bound for testing in Utah. The reactor was flown to Hill Air Force Base in Utah and is expected to be transported to the Utah San Rafael Energy Lab in Orangeville for testing and evaluation, marking a turning point in America’s race to reclaim energy dominance.

The airlift wasn’t just a logistics operation. It was a declaration that the United States intends to win the advanced nuclear race while China builds Generation IV reactors and the rest of the developed world stumbles through energy crises of their own making. President Donald Trump’s executive order to modernize America’s nuclear energy infrastructure and strengthen U.S. national security set this moment in motion, and the Department of War wasted no time executing the mission.

The reactor being transported is part of a collaboration between the Pentagon and Valar Atomics, a California-based startup founded by 25-year-old Isaiah Taylor. The company’s Ward 250 reactor represents a fundamentally different approach to nuclear power: small, transportable, factory-built units that can be deployed wherever they’re needed rather than massive installations that take decades to construct. For military installations that currently depend on vulnerable civilian power grids or diesel generators, the implications are profound.

For the military, reliance on diesel generators when deployed and local electric grids here at home is widely viewed as a significant national security threat. Every forward operating base running on fuel convoys is a target. Every domestic installation tied to the civilian grid is one cyberattack away from going dark. The microreactor solution eliminates both vulnerabilities. These units can be transported by C-17, set up at remote locations, and provide reliable power independent of supply lines or grid infrastructure.

Lots of very intriguing, very enheartening stuff in this one, folks. Bottom line:

The image of a nuclear reactor loaded into a C-17 represents more than technological capability. It represents a shift in how America approaches both energy and national security. For too long, those domains were treated as separate concerns, managed by bureaucracies more interested in process than results. The Trump administration’s executive orders and the military’s execution of programs like Janus reflect a different calculation: that energy security and military readiness are inseparable, and that restoring American dominance in both requires breaking old patterns.

Whether Valar Atomics ultimately succeeds or another company takes the lead matters less than the broader trajectory. The reactor sitting in Utah for testing is proof that America can still move quickly when leadership decides that winning matters more than managing decline. The question now is whether that momentum continues or whether it gets buried under the same regulatory and political obstacles that have paralyzed American energy development for half a century.

Time will tell, as ever. Either way, it’s good to know that SecWar Hegseth is working on it for us in accordance with the tasking set forth by President Trump, with eyes set firmly on the road ahead and not the dim and distant past.

Trump’s best hire?

Can only be the remarkable Marco Rubio for SecState. He just went to Munich and demonstrated why.

Rubio on Fire! We Won’t Be ‘Polite and Orderly Caretakers of the West’s Managed Decline’
Rubio told European leaders that the post–Cold War era is over, that the “euphoria of this triumph led us to a dangerous delusion: that we had entered, quote, ‘the end of history;’ that every nation would now be a liberal democracy; that the ties formed by trade and by commerce alone would now replace nationhood; that the rules-based global order – an overused term – would now replace the national interest; and that we would now live in a world without borders where everyone became a citizen of the world.”

He said that this idea was foolish and “ignored both human nature and it ignored the lessons of over 5,000 years of recorded human history.”

While championing the Donald Trump administration’s America-First foreign policy, he also reaffirmed the bond between our nations, saying that the Western Hemisphere may be our home, but we’re a child of Europe, and we share history, culture, and heritage. “We belong together,” he said.

But he also made it clear that the world has reached a turning point and course correction is required. Europe must save itself because, “we in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West’s managed decline.”

“The fundamental question we must answer at the outset is what exactly are we defending, because armies do not fight for abstractions. Armies fight for a people; armies fight for a nation. Armies fight for a way of life,” he said. “And that is what we are defending: a great civilization that has every reason to be proud of its history, confident of its future, and aims to always be the master of its own economic and political destiny.”

Rubio also spoke of how “we can no longer place the so-called global order above the vital interests of our people and our nations,” and how we must reform global institutions. He used the United Nations as an example, explaining that it has potential to be a “tool for good” but right now, it’s basically useless.

Great, GREAT stuff from the man Trump blithely dismissed as “Little Marco,” hurled right into the teeth of the dying Eurolion in his very den. At this point, I’m happy to say that Trump was all wet on that one; as he has shown again and again during his tenure at State, Marco Rubio is anything BUT “little.”

It’s hard to believe that all we had to do to change the military was to stop backing down.

We went from a disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan to snatching rogue heads of state in their sleep.

Ending nuclear threats with stunning precision.

Reducing drug deaths in America by orders of magnitude.

And through it all, the ranks swell with recruits. Why?

Because America loves winning, and responds accordingly.

And the only battle casualties belong to the enemy.

Our standards are unforgiving and the results are unforgettable.

Credit where it’s due to the Secretary of War @PeteHegseth, and the force that remembers what it can do when they’re allowed to do it.

Our current reality is unrecognizable from over a year ago. And for that, I am thankful. And I know I’m not alone in thinking that.

Key line here would have to be “…the force that remembers what it can do when they’re allowed to do it,” in my estimation. As for the plaudits for Hegseth, I have to say they’re richly deserved. Far as I know, the guy hasn’t put a foot wrong as SecWar yet.

Reserve Currency – What you’ve heard is BS

Posted on      by     

“The BRICS countries are going to redefine the reserve currency”
“The Chinese Renminbi is going to be the new reserve currency”

You’ve heard it and it is all bullshit promoted by anti-American conmen. Brics are countries like South Africa, Egypt, and Ethiopia, with absolutely nothing to contribute. As for the others, like China – you want to be holding an unstable currency? Of course not, nor does anyone else.

Which is why the dollar remains KING, currently at 58% of the worlds reserve currency holding, and the euro coming next at 1/3 of the USA, roughly 20%. After that it’s all small ball at 6% or less. China is 2% – who wants to hold the renminbi when the chinaman may very well devalue it at anytime?

And all this was taking place with the US under marxist control for many years, devastating our economy.

And now, it is just going to go back up. It peaked at around 70% back about year 2000. I expect to see it even higher in a couple years as the American economy begins taking off*.

Since everybody’s talking about Somalia and Somalis these days, here’s some seriously gripping stuff straight from the mouth of a man who was there, right in the thick of things.

Via Tactical Hermit.

Update! Probably shouldn’t even bring this up, but we had a HUGE CF fan and regular reader who also happened to be one of the Blackhawk pilots caught up that day in the chaotic maelstrom of intrepid warriors left to twist in the wind by careerist senior officers, conniving DoD rumpswabs, and vacillating, cowardly ProPols—an old, old story all too familiar to every US serviceman, from whatever branch, conflict, and/or era.

Anyhoo, I corresponded with this fella regularly for several years, got no idea where he might be now though. The inside stories of flying Blackhawks in both Mogadishu and elsewhere he related to me over those years I will NEVER forget, although he did make me solemnly swear not to say a word about it lest he wind up court-martialed for revealing classified informaion to a cake-eating civilian.

The Blackhawk Down saga is a heartrending revelation of how very far America had fallen by then—a downfall which has only worsened in the years since. If you haven’t seen the movie, you really, really need to correct that immediately. It will depress you, it will enrage you, it will discomfit and disturb you…but the incredible courage of those valiant American fighting men foolishly, callously dropped into the pot by so-called “leaders” unfit to carry their fucking jockstraps will amaze you no end. By the end of the flick, it’s the casual, dauntless bravery of those warriors that stays with you.

And if you didn’t already loathe and despise Jimmeh Peanuthead, I guar-on-damn-TEE that you will after watching this intense, perfectly-crafted movie. While we’re at it, fuck that goddamned brother-humping Ilhan Omar cunt-fart all to Hell and gone, too. Calls for a re-post of this timely classic, I do believe.

Heh. Make it so, Number One.
