"Modern" Generals direct their troops from as far behind the lines as possible (preferably near a golf course).

Washington put his body on the front lines.

This should be shown in every history class in America.  

Jeff Daniels is brilliant as George Washington. 

 

"First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen, he was second to none in the humble and endearing scenes of private life. Pious, just, humane, temperate, and sincere; uniform, dignified, and commanding, his example was as edifying to all around him as were the effects of that example lasting."

"Who is there that has forgotten the vales of Brandywine, the fields of Germantown, or the plains of Monmouth? Everywhere present, wants of every kind obstructing, numerous and valiant armies encountering, himself a host, he assuaged our sufferings, limited our privations, and upheld our tottering republic."

Texas Has Authority To Repel Border ‘Invasion’ - Gov. Abbott

Lexington and Concord

A New American Revolution???

• What happens if Gov. Abbott has the Texas National Guard arrest Biden's Federal troops for breaking the law?  

• And what happens if 4 Patriot Governors send troops to the Texas border to repel the invasion and are fired upon by the Feds?

Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott doubled down Wednesday on the state’s “constitutional right to self-defense” days after the Supreme Court ordered the Texas National Guard to remove barbed wire to keep illegal migrants out.

The Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision Monday, agreed to vacate an injunction that temporarily blocked Border Patrol from cutting wire Texas had placed along the border. Texas authorities appeared to ignore the ruling, with a video circulating on social media showing authorities setting up razor wire for the border in Eagle Pass, Texas.

Abbott doubled down on the state’s response, invoking the Founding Fathers.

“The federal government has broken the compact between the United States and the States. The Executive Branch of the United States has a constitutional duty to enforce federal laws protecting States, including immigration laws on the books right now,” Abbott said in a statement. “President Biden has ignored Texas’s demand that he perform his constitutional duties.”

“James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and the other visionaries who wrote the U.S. Constitution foresaw that States should not be left to the mercy of a lawless president who does nothing to stop external threats like cartels smuggling millions of illegal immigrants across the border,” Abbott continued, citing Article IV Section 4 which says the federal government “shall protect each [State] against invasion” and Article I, Section 10, Clause 3 which says the states have a “sovereign interest in protecting their borders.”

“The failure of the Biden Administration to fulfill the duties imposed by Article IV, § 4 has triggered Article I, § 10, Clause 3, which reserves to this State the right of self-defense. For these reasons, I have already declared an invasion under Article I, § 10, Clause 3 to invoke Texas’s constitutional authority to defend and protect itself. That authority is the supreme law of the land and supersedes any federal statutes to the contrary. The Texas National Guard, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and other Texas personnel are acting on that authority, as well as state law, to secure the Texas border.”

Border Patrol agents have recorded a record-breaking amount of illegal migrants. More than 2.2 million illegal migrant encounters were recorded in fiscal year 2022 at the southern border and more than 2 million in fiscal year 2023, federal data shows.

Texas Installs MORE Razor Wire, Tells Biden To BUZZ OFF, Civil War Fear Grows

 

British view of Lexington and Concord:  
.
"During the whole affair the Rebels attacked us in a very scattered, irregular manner, but with perseverance & resolution, nor did they ever dare to form into any regular body. Indeed, they knew too well what was proper, to do so. Whoever looks upon them as an irregular mob, will find himself much mistaken. They have men amongst them who know very well what they are about, having been employed as Rangers against the Indians & Canadians, & this country being much covered with wood, and hilly, is very advantageous for their method of fighting."

July 4th, 1776 - Bikinis, Guns and Freedom

Happy July 4th Weekend

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all bikinis are NOT created equal, and that women are often well endowed by their Creator. These women have certain unalienable Rights, that among these are beaches, beer and the pursuit of manly men.

Thomas Jefferson

Third Draft, Declaration of Independence

Every July 4th I ponder the greatness and bravery of our Founding Fathers.

The fucking British were nasty bastards with a history of torture, beheadings and mass murder of those who dared to oppose the King.

For example, Scottish Freedom Fighter William Wallace was taken to the Tower of London, then stripped naked and dragged through the city at the heels of a horse to the Elms at Smithfield. He was hanged, drawn and quartered — strangled by hanging, but released while he was still alive, emasculated, eviscerated and his bowels burned before him, beheaded, then cut into four parts. His preserved head (dipped in tar) was placed on a pike atop London Bridge.

Our Founders were giants.  

But the bulk of our current crop of political hacks are either raging Marxist traitors or bought and paid for sheep frightened of their own shadow.  

So sad.

WASHINGTON Post Says The Name “Washington” Is Racist

 

Fuck All Leftist Filth

Washington

The Greatest Man in History

• For thousands of years the world knew nothing but savage dictatorships. Putting his life on the line George Washington overthrew the monarchy, refused a crown, established a Constitutional Republic and rejected being "President for Life". Instead Washington gave up power to become a farmer and freed his slaves.

The Crossing

Clips from “The Crossing”(1999) / Jeff Daniels as George Washington/ December 1776,decimated by superior British forces, suffering from disease, desertion and lack of funds,General George Washington faces the unthinkable --- losing the war.

Despite all advice to the contrary, Washington makes a courageous decision that is considered to be one of the boldest in military history. On Christmas night, with the American Revolution hanging in the balance. Washington takes his army across the ice-choked Delaware River. The next morning, he leads a surprise attack against a garrison of battle-hardened Hessian mercenaries.

The overwhelming and miraculous victory turns the tide in the war and ultimately leads to the birth of the United States.

Washington makes our current crop of liar, hack politicians look like the scum of the earth that they are.

George Washington's "The Crossing" Should Be Mandatory in Schools

George Washington

The Greatest Man in History

For ten thousand years the world knew nothing but savage dictatorships. 

Putting his life on the line George Washington overthrew the monarchy, refused a crown, established a Constitutional Republic and rejected being "President for Life". 

Instead Washington gave up power to become a farmer and put in his will that his slaves be freed.

Compared to the Civil War, the American Revolution looks distant and unreal - basically it comes down to the Civil War being photographed while the Revolution was told with paintings.

"The Crossing" brings the Revolution alive.

Every State should make watching "The Crossing" mandatory viewing in all schools.

Washington makes our current crop of liar, hack politicians look like the scum of the earth that they are.
