9/11 25th Anniversary: A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Yesterday, we remembered that horrible day 25 years ago when we lost nearly 3,000 Americans. It was a solemn day during which thousands of Americans were still grieving and missing those loved ones who were slaughtered by Radical Islamic Terrorists.

Adults who were in the position to do so, were at home watching the annual proceedings where they read the names of those who died that faithful day. This is perhaps the most solemn moment of all as a bell is rung at the precise time the planes hearing innocent Americans crashed.

Normally, you would look out on the crowd gathered in New York City for this remembrance and you would see families morning and others standing in respectful silence during the proceedings. And, this is an absolutely normal thing, because at most Americans are very respectful of those who perished during the attack.

Notice that I said most Americans.

25 years after the largest Radical Islamic Terrorist Attack on American soil ever, the epicenter of the attack, New York City, somehow has a Radical Islamic Communist Mayor.

Even though he was asked not to show up at the remembrance event, he did anyway, saying that he, too, wanted to solemnly remember that day.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has been known to keep company with those who are known to be Islamic radicals.

The thing is, he is not the only one that Americans need to worry about. We have people who hate this country walking the Halls of Congress.

If you look at the congresswoman whom he was having an inappropriate and disrespectful laugh with during the 9/11 remembrance service, you will see that it is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the “Squad”, whose claim to fame is that they are all “radicals” who want to “radically change” this country.

The picture of the two of them laughing while they are surrounded by grieving families, touched a nerve yesterday among Americans.

And, rightfully so.

During the days after the attack, Americans came together as one, united in our grief and rage.

In order for us to move forward and survive as a country, we need to once again be united in those things that matter.

Those who hate this country should never hold power in this country because when they do, their efforts to radically change us get close to destroying us from within.

If any of those who hate this country are reading this, I have a suggestion to make: Leave America and go find yourself a country you like.

That way those of us who do love this country don’t have to look at disgusting behavior like the two America-hating radicals showed us yesterday.

25 Years After 9/11 …Why We Must NEVER Forget

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

In some ways it does not seem like it has been 25 years since the worst Terrorist Attack ever perpetrated on American soil.

In other ways, it seems like an eternity.

That horrible day was so surreal. It seemed to me like I was stuck in a nightmare.

Certainly this couldn’t be happening to us? We’re the greatest nation in the world. Who in their right mind, would dare attack the United States of America? Who would be brazen enough to attack us, using instruments of our own design? Who would actually dare flying planes into the Twin Towers, a living symbol of American Prosperity?

For that matter …who would fly a plane into the Pentagon …the Seat of Power behind our nation’s awesome Military, the finest collection of Fighting Men and Women on Earth?

It was not a nightmare. It was a reality.

I remember seeing that first plane crash into the World Trade Center.

I remember the look of incredulity and panic on the faces of Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, and E.D. Hill, as they watched from the set of Fox and Friends that fateful morning.

I remember the second plane on its approach, and the horrifying realization that this was no accident… that America was under attack. An attack, which turned out to have been planned and executed by Osama bin Laden, and a group of Saudi Arabians, members of the Muslim Terrorist Group, known as al-Qaeda.

I remember the images of Americans jumping out of windows to their certain death, rather than be consumed by the fires, raging around them.

I remember the sickening thud as they hit the pavement.

I remember the images of the brave NYC Policemen and Firemen as they rushed into the World Trade Center…never to return.

I remember watching the First Tower collapse…then, the second one.

I remember a heroic Mayor Rudy Giuliani, out in the middle of the devastation, doing whatever he could to get New Yorkers to safety.

I remember President George W. Bush coming on television, with a look of steely determination, as he announced that we would be avenged.

I remember him standing on that heap of rubble that used to be a part of the World Trade Center, side by side with that fireman, telling the assembled crowd, through his bullhorn, that “the world will hear from us”.

And, it did.

During the days after 9/11/2001, political affiliation, race, gender, personal philosophy, did not matter.

WE WERE AMERICANS.

This country came together, in a way in which I had never before seen in my lifetime (which, is a pretty long time).

Now, look at us.

Americans must resolve to stand firm and to once again come together and let our “public servants” in the Halls of Power in Washington, D.C know that we stand against those who would embrace our enemies instead of serving our Sovereign Nation, as they were elected to do.

On September 11, 2001, Radical Islamists attacked us on our own soil and murdered over 3,000 Americans, and if given the opportunity, they will not hesitate to do it again.

We must stand united as a nation and continue to reclaim our heritage as “The Shining City Upon a Hill”.

The lives lost on September 11, 2001 …demand it.

Sunday Quick Thought: While Americans Laugh at Mamdani, Muslims Declare Victory in NYC Hijrah

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

While Americans laughed as Radical Islamic Communist Mayor Zohran Mamdani pleated with New Yorkers to volunteer to shovel snow during the incoming blizzard, a veil lifted as what appeared to be thousands of Muslims took to the streets of New York City to proclaim victory in their takeover of the Big Apple.

On February 7th, I posted the following:

“New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani invoked Islam’s Hijrah — a concept he framed as a religious model for migration — as he rolled out a sanctuary-related executive order Friday, drawing backlash from critics who accused him of using religious doctrine to justify mass migration and shield illegal immigrants from federal enforcement.

Mamdani announced the order at his first Interfaith Breakfast at the New York Public Library, accusing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents of “visit[ing] terror upon our neighbors,” and likening their presence to riders arriving “atop a pale horse.”

“We will make it clear once again ICE will not be able to enter New York City property without a judicial warrant,” Mamdani said, citing schools, shelters, and hospitals.” (Courtesy Breitbart.com)

What is Hijrah? Per Britannica.com …

“Hijrah, the Prophet Muhammad’s migration (622 ce) from Mecca to Yathrib (Medina) upon invitation in order to escape persecution. After arriving, Muhammad negotiated the Constitution of Medina with the local clans, thereby establishing the Muslim community as a sociopolitical entity for the first time.”

What we are witnessing through the words and actions of New York city Mayor Mamdani is a microcosm of what has happened to Western Europe thanks to the Muslim Invasion brought through migration that has turned the United Kingdom into a country ran by Muslims and is threatening to do the same to other major nations in Europe.

The UK’s “Muslim Problem” is a demonstration as to what happens when a non-indigenous population moves into a country and does not assimilate into the normal traditions and customs of that nation, and, instead, keep their own traditions and laws, separating themselves from the indigenous population in the name of “multiculturalism”, the opposite of the “Melting Pot”, which helped to form the greatest nation on the face of the Earth, the United States of America.

There are now Muslim enclaves in every part of America. What is happening in New York and what has happened in durban, Michigan are harbingers of a very serious problem which has been purposely overlooked by our politicians.

Mass immigration can and is being used as a political weapon.

Those who organize the annual remembrance of the morning 9/11 morning when over 3,000 Americans were massacred by Radical Islams as the Twin Towers fell in New York City, should probably be prepared to be relocated to a small area, if they are allowed to hold the remembrance at all.

The purposely obtuse professional politicians safely looking down from Capitol Hill need to wake up and protect the people whom they are supposed to be serving before it’s too late to do anything about it.

9/11 and the Assassination of Charlie Kirk

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

Today is the 24th anniversary of the worst terrorist attack ever perpetrated on American soil. Approximately 3,000 Americans lost their lives today as Saudi Arabian pilots, believing it to be the will of Allah, flew planes into buildings in New York and Washington DC, killing innocent men, women, and children. There would have been more Americans murdered if Brave Americans had not taken over a fourth plane and flew it into the ground.

As we remember that evil today, we find ourselves surrounded by the evil created here at home.

Political propaganda meant to enrage people to commit acts of violence against those who believe differently than they do has lead to the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a young Christian man who traveled from college to college for the purpose of inspiring debate about the important issues of our time and to spread the Word of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Ideas and concepts that are true and right, such as the traditional faith and values of our country, have been proclaimed as evil by those who have spread their political propaganda in our schools and throughout the Legacy Media.

Charlie Kirk was assassinated yesterday because he dared to tell college students that they could think for themselves.

He dared to tell them that there was such a thing as right and wrong and that God loves them.

What we are witnessing as Americans are the consequences of allowing people seduced by evil to convince Americans that wrong is right and right is wrong, patriotism is passe, and man is his own God.

Americans, these murders, assassinations, assaults, robberies, and debauchery we are witnessing as a nation are not a result of people with “psychiatric issues.” What we are witnessing is a war between “princes and principalities.””

Just like Charlie kirk, we need to be brave and fearless. We need to speak out for what is right, to share the love of God, and to be proud to be Americans.

We must fight this spiritual warfare with spiritual warfare.

Good will triumph over Evil.

The Bible tells us so.

And, here we are, 22 years removed from that nightmarish day, with a President of the United States, who since taking office, has purposefully divided our Sovereign Nation like never before, pitting black Americans against White Americans, the poor among us against those who employ people, the vaccinated against the un-vaccinated, and those foolish enough to vote for Biden against Trump Voters. 

This treasonous imbecile who was installed as President has kissed the backsides of the same people responsible for the horrific events which we stop to remember on this solemn day.

Not only that, in his surrender to the Taliban, he left behind American citizens, who are still hurting to get out of there.

Under our former Commander-in-Chief that would have never happened. Former President Donald J. Trump does not bow down to Radical Islamists.

During the days after 9/11/2001, political affiliation, race, gender, personal philosophy, did not matter.

WE WERE AMERICANS.

This country came together, in a way in which I had never before seen in my lifetime (which, is a pretty long time).

Now, look at us.

Besides the Far Left Cabal and their puppet in the White House, we have Radical Muslims (and Marxists) occupying seats in the House of Representatives and displaying their ignorance and disdain for our country.

Like Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) who infamously said,

“Some people did something.”

Americans must continue to stand firm and to once again come together and let our “public servants” in the Halls of Power in Washington, D.C know that we stand against those who would embrace our enemies instead of serving our Sovereign Nation, as they were elected to do.

Also, we remember those who left us on that September Morning so long ago, and say a prayer for them and the Four Americans whom we lost on the grounds of a US Embassy Compound in Benghazi, Libya. All these years later, they still deserve no less.

On September 11, 2001, Radical Islamists attacked us on our own soil and murdered over 3,000 Americans, and if given the opportunity, they will not hesitate to do it again.

We must stop the Far Left ideologues of the Modern Democratic Party, including President Joe Biden and his “Handlers” and not give them any more opportunities to bring about “radical change” in America through the appeasement of our enemies which has already started happening under this President, including secret deals, possible pay-offs, acquiescence, and leaving them the means of our nation’s destruction during the botched pull-out from Afghanistan.

America was NEVER meant to be “just another country”.

We must stand united as a nation and continue to reclaim our heritage as “The Shining City Upon a Hill”.

The lives lost on September 11, 2001…and September 11, 2012…demand it.

Cultural Marxism and the Tik Tok Posting of Bin Laden’s “A Letter to America”

On By kingsjesterIn PoliticsLeave a comment

This past week, Lynette Adkins, an online personality and pro-Palestinian activist, came out defending her right to post Osama bin Laden’s “A Letter to America” on the popular China-originated social media platform Tik Tok. Adkins has since been banned from the platform, and the source of the post “The Guardian” has removed it since posting it in 2002.

In the letter to America, bin Laden justified al-Qaeda’s attacks against the U.S.

“Palestine, which has sunk under military occupation for more than 80 years. The British handed over Palestine, with your help and your support, to the Jews, who have occupied it for more than 50 years; years overflowing with oppression, tyranny, crimes, killing, expulsion, destruction and devastation,” bin Laden alleged.

Adkins urged her 175,000 followers to read to words of the Radical Islamic Terrorist who slaughtered over 3,000 Americans:

“TikTok is going to save this generation,” Adkins said. “The amount of things that we’ve learned on this app in this past month alone that other people in other generations I tried to talk to them about it, they don’t understand. They don’t get it because they’ve been literally so programmed to think a certain way, TikTok is undoing all of that. It’s crazy to watch in real time.”

“If you haven’t already, go read ‘A Letter to America,'” she added.” (Quotes Courtesy FoxNews.com)

I find it frightening that a Chinese Data-mining operation disguised as a social media platform is being so successful in spreading the Societal Rot of Cultural Marxism across our Sovereign Nation.

It’s not so much that this idiot’s sponsorship and championing of the words of the radical Islamic Terrorist Mastermind behind the slaughter of over 3,000 Americans on September 11, 2001 makes me mad, although it does, it’s the fact that the Chinese seem to have finally found a way to stab a dagger in the heart of traditional American Faith and Values.

It is blatant propaganda like this that has caused patriotism to be called “White Nationalism” and the Great Melting Pot to become the Tower of Babylon.

What made America the greatest country on the face of the Earth for Generations was a shared sense of love, unity, and pride among average Americans, the people who vote and send representatives to Washington, DC.

Americans had the common sense to know who our allies were and who our enemies were.

This generation is being taught that our allies are our enemies and our enemies are our allies.

When former President Donald J Trump recites the poem and song “The Snake” at his rallies, he leaves no doubt as to what it means for America. We see the results around us every day.

As Lynette Adkins illustrates so emphatically, our country’s enemies live among us.

Make no mistake, I am a proponent of free speech. However, I am also a Christian American Patriot who will continue to exercise MY right to free speech by calling out the enemies of this country who seek to destroy us from within by turning this country into something that it was never meant to be.

Who would be brazen enough to attack us, using instruments of our own design? Who would actually dare flying planes into the Twin Towers, a living symbol of American Prosperity?

For that matter,. who would fly a plane into the Pentagon…the Seat of Power behind our nation’s awesome Military, the finest collection of Fighting Men and Women on Earth?

It was not a nightmare. It was a reality.

I remember seeing that first plane crash into the World Trade Center.

I remember the look of incredulity and panic on the faces of Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, and E.D. Hill, as they watched from the set of Fox and Friends that fateful morning.

I remember the second plane on its approach, and the horrifying realization that this was no accident… that America was under attack. An attack, which turned out to have been planned and executed by Osama bin Laden, and a group of Saudi Arabians, members of the Muslim Terrorist Group, known as al-Qaeda.

I remember the images of Americans jumping out of windows to their certain death, rather than be consumed by the fires, raging around them.

I remember the sickening thud as they hit the pavement.

I remember the images of the brave NYC Policemen and Firemen as they rushed into the World Trade Center…never to return.

I remember watching the First Tower collapse…then, the second one.

I remember a heroic Mayor Rudy Giuliani, out in the middle of the devastation, doing whatever he could to get New Yorkers to safety.

I remember President George W. Bush coming on television, with a look of steely determination, as he announced that we would be avenged.

I remember him standing on that heap of rubble that used to be a part of the World Trade Center, side by side with that fireman, telling the assembled crowd, through his bullhorn, that “the world will hear from us”.

And, it did.

And, here we are, 21 years removed from that nightmarish day, with a President of the United States, who since taking office, has purposefully divided our Sovereign Nation like never before, pitting black Americans against White Americans, the poor among us against those who employ people, the vaccinated against the un-vaccinated, and those foolish enough to vote for Biden against Trump Voters. 

This treasonous imbecile who was installed as President has kissed the backsides of the same people responsible for the horrific events which we stop to remember on this solemn day.

Not only that, in his surrender to the Taliban, he left behind American citizens, who are still hurting to get out of there.

Under our former Commander-in-Chief that would have never happened. Former President Donald J. Trump does not bow down to Radical Islamists.

During the days after 9/11/2001, political affiliation, race, gender, personal philosophy, did not matter.

WE WERE AMERICANS.

This country came together, in a way in which I had never before seen in my lifetime (which, is a pretty long time).

Now, look at us.

Besides the Far Left Cabal and their puppet in the White House, we have Radical Muslims (and Marxists) occupying seats in the House of Representatives and displaying their ignorance and disdain for our country.

Like Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) who infamously said,

“Some people did something.”

Americans must continue to stand firm and to once again come together and let our “public servants” in the Halls of Power in Washington, D.C know that we stand against those who would embrace our enemies instead of serving our Sovereign Nation, as they were elected to do.

Also, we remember those who left us on that September Morning so long ago, and say a prayer for them and the Four Americans whom we lost on the grounds of a US Embassy Compound in Benghazi, Libya. All these years later, they still deserve no less.

On September 11, 2001, Radical Islamists attacked us on our own soil and murdered over 3,000 Americans, and if given the opportunity, they will not hesitate to do it again.

We must stop the Far Left ideologues of the Modern Democratic Party, including President Joe Biden and his “Handlers” and not give them any more opportunities to bring about “radical change” in America through the appeasement of our enemies which has already started happening under this President, including secret deals, possible pay-offs, acquiescence, and leaving them the means of our nation’s destruction during the botched pull-out from Afghanistan.

America was NEVER meant to be “just another country”.

We must stand united as a nation and continue to reclaim our heritage as “The Shining City Upon a Hill”.

The lives lost on September 11, 2001…and September 11, 2012…demand it.

Fox News Bans Rudy Giuliani and Son From Appearing for Several Months…He Found Out on Eve of 9/11…Pete Hegseth Called to Apologize for Him Being “Bumped”

Newsmax.com reports that

Rudy Giuliani has been banned from appearing on Fox News for several months, and only learned of the “from the top” order on the eve of the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Son Andrew Giuliani, a New York gubernatorial candidate, has also been banned.

And former NYPD Commsissioner Bernie Kerik, a close adviser to Giuliani, is rarely booked on Fox News, Politico Playbook reports.

Rudy Giuliani and Kerik were prominent New York City leaders on 9/11 as mayor and NYPD commissioner.

“They’re not doing us any favors,” a Trump aide told Politico.

The rejection on hosting the Giulianis “comes from the top,” sources told Politico.

Fox began distancing itself from Giuliani shortly after Trump left office and in the wake of Dominion Voting Systems’ lawsuit against the network. The suit cited Giuliani’s appearances and statements made on Fox in its $1.6 billion defamation case.

Newsmax was also sued by Dominion over its election coverage, but the network continues to have Giuliani, his son, and Kerik on as guests.

“Rudy is really hurt because he did a big favor for Rupert [Murdoch, founder of Fox News’ parent company],” a source close to Giuliani told the outlet. “He was instrumental in getting Fox on Time Warner so it could be watched in New York City.”

Rudy Giuliani learned of being bumped from Fox News on the eve of this 9/11 anniversary, with “Fox & Friends” host Pete Hegseth having to call to apologize for being cut from the show, according to the report.

Kerik was reportedly also un-booked from “Fox & Friends” on 9/11.

“I could not have been more disappointed with the Fox coverage on the 20th anniversary of Sept. 11,” Kerik said in a statement to Politico. “Then they chose to intentionally ignore Mayor Giuliani who was, and who, according to their own coverage for the last two decades, was America’s hero on the day and in the aftermath of the attack.

“Regardless of reasoning, I think this was another demonstration of Fox’s cowering to the far left.”

A source close to Giuliani tells Newsmax that the former mayor and his circle view their banishment from Fox as part of the network’s strategy to reduce and restrict Trump’s influence in the Republican party.

Marshall McLuhan once wrote that

The media is the message.

Well, in the past couple of decades, the Main Stream Media has become not just the message, but also judge, jury, and political executioner.

And, unfortunately, thanks to the influence of the Liberal daughter-in-laws of Rupert Murdoch, Fox News began overcompensating to the Left in keeping its programming “fair and balanced”.

Daily diatribes from Juan Williams, the now-departed Shep Smith, Donna Brazile, and Chris Wallace made me more than once turn the channel to reruns of…well…just about anything.

Then, came the night of the 2020 Presidential Election.

Fox News stripped away its veneer of “Fair and Balanced” to join CNN and MSNBC as servants of the Democratic Party.

That was not a very smart move.

And, they have been making mind-blowingly stupid moves ever since.

However, this one is the cherry on top of an ice cream sundae of Cable News Channel Programming Stupidity.

I’m so old that I remember when Fox News Channel was not a member of the Main Stream Media.

According to the Old Testament Book of Proverbs,

“Pride goeth before destruction and an haughty spirit before a fall.”

That scripture has never been truer than in the case of Fox News.

Americans have noticed that Fox News has been traveling in a Liberal direction ever since Rupert Murdoch left the running of the channel to his sons.

There are more Liberal Pundits and Anchors on Fox News than there have ever been in its history.

And, those who were not known until recently to be Liberal seem to be relishing the opportunity to drive away the audience which made Fox News Channel number one in the ratings for many, many years.

What is maddening to me is the fact that Former President Trump went out of his way to be kind to them, helping their ratings over his time in office through live phone calls and exclusive interviews, including one morning when he made a spontaneous appearance on “Fox and Friends”, consenting to a live on-the-spot interview with Steve Doocy.

So, why has Fox News repeatedly bitten the hand that feeds them?

Poor management.

The change in political viewpoint at Fox News has to be the worst marketing decision since “New Coke”.

And, just like New Coke, it has left a bitter taste in the mouths of millions of Americans.

So, are the powers-that-be at FNC bright enough to apologize to the millions of Americans who made them number one in the cable news ratings for years and made them all wealthy in the process?

Heck no.

They just keep doubling down on stupid, like AOC at a MENSA Meeting.

Fox News not only jumped the shark…they continue to gleeful feed the crocodile known as the Democratic Party , along with the “Never-Trumper” Wing of the Republican Party, hoping that it will eat them last.

Their arrogance is exceeded only by their stupidity.

Until He Comes,

20 Years After 9/11…Why We Must NEVER Forget

In some ways it does not seem like it has been 20 years since the worst Terrorist Attack ever perpetrated on American soil.

In other ways, it seems like an eternity.

That horrible day was so surreal. It seemed to me like I was stuck in a nightmare.

Certainly this couldn’t be happening to us? We’re the greatest nation in the world. Who in their right mind, would dare attack the United States of America?
