Trump at Mt. Rushmore Reality vs Spin

Katherine McClintock: What’s going on here?

George Washington McLintock: Now Katherine, are you going to believe what you see, or what I tell you?

McLintoch! 1963

I watched the President’s speech yesterday via an online live stream. It was an interesting speech because it was a speech that wasn’t so much about himself as it was about America.

He talked about our history, he talked about why Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt were great and contrasted that with those who have torn monuments down and have publicly torn America down. It was less a speech about himself as it was a speech about loving America vs hating America and explaining why America is great.

What was even more interesting than the speech was watching the left in real time spin it into something that it wasn’t. It was sheer audacity given that the ability to see the President speak and hear him in his own words was but a click away.

The President was bluntly stating truths, truths that people have seen and experienced. Moreover his willingness to call out the left for what is had been when schools, business’ and corporations have been cowering in fear is pivotal if people are going to have the courage to stand up to them.

I think this tweet (via Instapundit) says it all

I submit and suggest that no objective person who watched that speech can come to the conclusions that these four headlines state and this is why the left in general and the media in particular are terrified of large events with the President speaking and also hate when he tweets It’s much harder to spin the people when they’ve seen and heard what has been said themselves.

Now I presume that people reading this blog have seen the speech (if they search youtube the 1st results are spin) but if you haven’t watch it and judge for yourself

The gauntlet has been thrown down and the next three months aren’t going to be pretty.

District Attorney: What did you tell him?

Ness: I told him his name is in the ledger too.

District Attorney: His name wasn’t in the ledger…

I suspect there are a lot more photos like this and the reason why it took so long for her to be arrested is that there are a lot of establishment types who are terrified of what she can say.

I would not be surprised if that was the reason why getting rid of that prosecutor in NYC caused so much fuss. I wonder how many asses were being covered?

Let’s see if she lives long enough for us to find out.

I’m writing this week’s article from a rather unusual location – in a tent, in the middle of a farmer’s field, out in the boondocks of Thompson Connecticut.  Surrounding me are three other tents, a few camping trailers, four generators, a bunch of laptop computers, and over a dozen radio transceivers.  Strung up in the trees is about a mile of wires in the form of antennas.  The day before this was an empty field and tomorrow afternoon it will be an empty field again. 

This is my station

The two dozen individuals gathered with me in the middle of this field for the weekend have two things in common, we are all ham radio operators and we all belong to the Eastern Connecticut Amateur Radio Association.  All across this country thousands of clubs gathered in similar locations and thousands of individuals operated from their homes. This weekend all of us Amateur Radio operators are taking part in the single largest emergency communications exercise in the world, which is known as Field Day

Field Day is something we Amateur Radio operators take very serious because emergency communications is the heart and soul of Amateur Radio.  Whenever there is a major disaster such as a hurricane or an earthquake the only communications into and out of the affected area is through Amateur Radio.  We provide essential communications during medium and small scale disasters also. 

For the weekend my club, which is a small club, set up five complete stations.  All of the stations are completely self contained, running on either generators or deep cycle marine batteries charged by solar panels.  The wire antennas are all strung up in trees by ropes.  From these portable stations we were able to contact over a thousand similar stations all across the United States and many across the globe.  I personally talked to France and Sotland along with 30 states..

All year round we plan for Field Day and we continuously practice our emergency communications skills and test our equipment.

Field Day is also a social event.  We always have a potluck supper and we gather together all weekend just to gab.  The club I belong to is one of the hardier clubs, we decided to hold our usual Field Day despite the Coronavirus. 

The social aspect of Field Day allows me to combine two of my other favorite hobbies, brewing beer and engaging political discussions.  Every year for Field Day I brew up a batch of Field Day Amber beer and bring it to share with everyone.  It is always a big hit with the club members. 

Even though we are located in New England there is a large percentage of conservatives and libertarians in our club.  All sides of the political spectrum get along great in our club.  The Coronavirus did not deter any of us right wingers from attending.  This weekend I engaged in a great many enjoyable political discussions with fellow patriots and many liberals.   Beer and political discussions go so great together,

A statue of Abe Lincoln with the emancipation proclamation and a freed slave is a racist symbol of white supremacy and must be removed, however naming an anti trump the “Lincoln Project” is not only fine but deserves to be supported and celebrated by all right thinking people.

A new spike in corona/wuhan/ccp virus cases that took place two week after mass gatherings encouraged by the press and by medical professionals have nothing to do with these mass gatherings…but gatherings at bars and restaurants at even 25 or 50% capacity are hazardous to the public health and must be reversed to contain the spread of the virus.

If you suggest that leaving 30,000 residents of the city of Seattle to be ruled by mob is bad, you are afraid of Democracy, particularly if you’re Donald Trump. If, however said mob protests in front of the house of the Mayor who chided the President for fear of Democracy, then said mob is to be dispersed using all the force that the Seattle police can muster.

The killing of George Floyd during an arrest in Minneapolis is a national story worth of national yea international protest and outrage. The killings of Byron Crawford and nine other blacks in Baltimore, Michael Osby and 8 other blacks in LA, Joseph Gist and 64 other blacks in Chicago during the month of June are all local stories and not worthy of protest or outrage of any type.

If you are a person who breaks windows, topples statues and sets fires you are expressing your 1st amendment right to protests against violence and injustice, but if you are a homeowner who when threatened by a mob that breaks through your game, arms himself to defend your family and property you are a dangerous proponent of white supremacy.
