Proper Context. . .

(Proper Context. . .)

Before one begins, one should know that Vice President Harris believes that Donald Trump is a fascist, and he is a danger. She could be right and as a consequence, vote for her. Such an argument is falling flat. Assume for a moment, however, that Trump does win just over a week from now, one can expect changes in behavior across the world. One that stands out is the United Nations. October 24th is called United Nations Day.


To the U.N. as well as the World Economic Council, the "Davos" crowd, another Trump Presidency would be catastrophic. Gone are the days when the green globalists of the Biden Administration and other Western powers advocated in 2021 that a new post-Trump order would be the way forward. That paradigm was shattered when the U.S. abandoned Afghanistan and all the problems that developed since. The Unted Nations had been impotent the whole time.


These Pages have never held the U.N in any great esteem. It has even gone as far as suggested that the U.N. Building be converted into East River condos, the organization itself re-located to Geneva. The U.N. has never been conducive to American interests and its own anti-Israel bent is infamous. When American policy makers defer to the United Nations, like Secretary of State Anthony in the incessant efforts to end of the Israel War, under the aegis of the U.N.


Donald Trump will not be showing such deference to the U.N. He will conduct his foreign policy independent of the U.N. The continuation of the Abaham Accords, a reproachment between Isarel and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Tariffs will be applied to trade, especially with China. The Peoples' Republic would also be discouraged from attacking Taiwan. Sanctions will be re-applied to Iran and the Ukraine War could also be brought to an end.


The term "United Nations" does not appear in any initiatives. If Trump at some point finds that the U.N. could be useful, he could engage it, Otherwise, it will be an East River structure filled with international delegates that never pay for parking.

TEQUILA !

(TEQUILA !) Happy Cinco de Mayo or May 5th. One can hope that a lot of you out there are awash in inebriation, seeking to mainline tequila shots or enjoying a nice margarita on the patio. Or, in other words, relax. Take a breath. De-compress. May 5th as it happens is the anniversary of Mexico's victory over French "occupation" of Mexico by Emperor Maximillian, brother to Austrian monarch Maria Theresa in what has been called the Battle of Puebla. The reason France was in Mexico in the first place was that Mexico, after the Mexican-American War and a more civil conflict called the Reform War, had bankrupted Mexico City. Mexican President at the time was Benito Juarez, who repudiated all foreign debt, of which France, Spain, and the United Kingdom were all major holders. A naval expedition was dispatched to Veracruz and France's Napoleon III thought it would be a good idea to establish a French "empire" in Mexico. But, on May 5th, 1862, in the aforementioned B...

Keeping The Faith ?

(Keeping The Faith ?) Happy Memorial Day ! This is the day when the nation pauses and recognizes the contributions of the men and women that strove, and often times perished in the defense of this country. How many campaigns and battles have been seen over the years with Americans in harms way. Theirs was not a pursuit of glory, necessarily but they are remembered as such. As an example, take the Joe Rosenthal photo of the "Iwo Jima Flag-raising," February 23rd, 1945. Most people know what that is and not a few have a copy on their wall. Three of those Marines survived Iwo Jima and went on a bond tour to promote that picture. The U.S. was able to fund the rest of the War off of that drive but the Marines in question did not fare well. Private Ira Hayes, the last casualty of the Volcano Island died of exposure some years later. There was one other Marine, Rene Gagnon, and who was originally believed to be Navy Corpman, John Bradley. Since then, the "place" in the Ros...

Siege Of The Alamo

(Siege Of The Alamo) Any visitor to Downtown San Antonio will recognize the City's most famous landmark, the Alamo. An old Spanish mission that means "Cottonwood" in English was the site where the likes of Jim Bowie, William Barrett Travis and Davy Crockett and about another 185 Texians defended the Mission and its compound for thirteen days against the Army of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana and his 5,000 troops. The garrison was finally reduced on March 6, 1836. However, the Texian defeat at the Alamo and another one at Goliad, bought time for General Sam Houston time to fall back and then face Santa Ana at San Jacinto. There, Houston's army surprised the Mexicans and yelling "Remember the Alamo, Remember Goliad !" all but wiped out the Mexican force. Santa Ana was captured and was forced to recognize the Republic of Texas. Which is now the State of Texas and, like 1836 Texas War of Independence, there is a new invasion from Mexico. Not the armed body o...
