The Post 911 Era

Celebrating USA 250 includes acknowledging the post 911 era.

The US should maintain strong and ready military forces.

The US Armed Forces have been elevated during this time.

The post 911 era has been a time to tell the American people that US troops are sent to distant lands to defend American freedoms.

Thanks For Your Service is a phrase that is now common.

Veterans Day assemblies at public schools are common.

Free meals provided to veterans by major restaurant chains on what used to be Armistice Day has become a tradition.

Veterans parking spots have been put in place at various retail locations.

Military flyovers at major sports events are common.

At 0:48 below, the pilot speaks of The Sound of Freedom:

KING 5 News

US Troops were sent into life and death situations in the aftermath of 911.

For this reason it is important to ask questions and develop a feel for what is real and what is honest.

It feels like a society where honest and meaningful ideas stand up to questioning and discussion, but the questioning and discussion rarely takes place.

You can be sure that newspeople and the school teachers who stage Veterans Day assemblies will never ask questions to make sense of how sending US troops to distant lands is related to American rights and freedoms.

Reaching for an honest understanding of how all this works seems to be completely off limits.

From 2004

“Today, however, the Congress has relinquished its delegated powers, giving the President license to do whatever he and his office determine that they can get away with. Consequentially, the presidential and legislative oaths to the Constitution have just turned into a great photo op on inauguration day.”

“It is a sad and hard realization for a grunt who loves the Marine Corps to admit that the organization is not used in the preservation of liberty, and has not been used toward that end for a very long time.”

Mainstream Media Functions Like Paid Actors Reading A Script

Americans do not live in a free and honest society. Today, the mainstream media will function like paid actors reading a script:

Would any newsperson ever ask:

Did the advantage of US air power allow the undeclared wars in Iraq or Afghanistan to be prevented, won or shut down?

US jet aircraft have been able to strike targets in what wars won by the US?

Currently serving four-star officers and high level DOD civilians have been associated with what wars won by the US?

Don’t Lie To People And Maybe They Would Be More Patriotic

The Troops are sent into life and death situations in distant lands for our freedoms? Decades later, how about a discussion on how all this is meant to work.

In some cases, the US Armed Forces provide for our security. That’s as good as it gets.

In terms of American rights and freedoms-The Dept. of Defense has no more say than the Dept. of Agriculture.

Legal marijuana, concealed carry of handguns, semi automatic rifle sales, federal minimum drinking age, federal toilet regulations, sports betting, federal gas can regulations/free enterprise system, web censorship, voting rights, bump stock ban, interracial marriage, gay marriage, tobacco sales, open container laws, etc.

American freedoms come and go.

None of the above are linked in any way with The Joint Chiefs of Staff, The Troops, The Dept. of Defense or the outcome of military operations overseas.

Both major parties are OK with federal prohibition of alcohol and tobacco for adults age 18-20.

No such thing the day I graduated from high school.

That was before decades of military operations for your freedoms.

Both major political parties are now OK with treating 18-20 year old adults as second-class citizens.

Why do elected officials and high level DOD civilians speak of the US Armed Forces as if they function as some sort of giant civil rights organization?

Decades after the lessons of Vietnam, the Pentagon seems to specialize in undeclared/unwon wars.

This appears to be the case no matter what political party or personality is elected to office.

Lies About Freedom

It’s all about the freedom folks.

Biden honors Americans who ‘stood on the front lines of freedom’ in Veterans Day remarks

CNN Nov 11, 2023

Sorry, no newspeople available to ask:

Mr President,

How would American freedoms and the Constitution be any different today if US troops were never sent to Iraq way back in 1991?

Look for newspeople and school teachers to ask zero questions in this area.

Salisbury Mayor deploying to Africa with Maryland National Guard

“I am honored to do my part to ensure that the citizens of this community and all Americans remain safe and free.”

Several news sources published this quote. View them here.

The idea that sending hometown troops to Africa would be linked in any way with keeping the people of Salisbury Maryland safe and free calls for more discussion.

Mayor Day,

While the troops were deployed, federal law was signed prohibiting the sale of tobacco products to adults age 18-20.

Can you help us to understand the militarized version of freedom here?

Legal age to buy cigarettes, vapes raised to 21 nationwide

“Signed into law by President Donald Trump Friday as part of the new $1.4 trillion spending bill, a new measure prohibits the sale of tobacco products to anyone under the age of 21.”

Homeland Security Is A Scam

Americans were told they faced a life and death situation after 911. If certain actions were not taken, terrorists could come to America to disrupt our way of life and attempt another 911.

US Dept. of Homeland Security

This giant federal agency now has more than two decades of experience and lessons learned in working to prevent cartel product from entering the US.

More overdose deaths now, or before DHS?

Past 25 Years Of American History

This time featured the highest levels of alert to keep terrorists out (REAL ID, big Homeland Security budgets, Super Bowls guarded by DHS, etc.) and lined up with the highest number of drug overdoses due to cartel product arriving in US communities?

Has any newsperson anywhere asked questions on this?

Under Kristi Noem

Cartels move product into all 50 states.

DEA High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas:

“…HIDTA-designated counties are located in 50 states…”

Welcome Home Troops. Thanks for doing time/risking your ass in Iraq and Afghanistan, working to keep a post 911 USA safe & secure.

Don’t worry-The Super Bowl and public affairs will be safe:
