Remembering D-Day, Could We Do It Again |
Remembering D-Day
Today at the American cemetery in Normandy, France, President Trump may have reached the rhetorical peak of his presidency. He connected with the deep roots of America and Western Civilization in much the same way he did during his excellent address in Warsaw, Poland.
There have been many speeches by world leaders at Normandy. Most of them are forgettable. On rare occasions, their rhetoric rises to the level of remarkable and inspiring.

Pray For The President
Reverend Franklin Graham is calling on Christians across the country to join together this Sunday, June 2, for a special day of prayer. Specifically, Graham is asking men and women of faith to pray for President Donald Trump.
We are urged to pray for "all those in authority," and I was honored to join Rev. Graham and hundreds of other faith leaders in endorsing this call to prayer for our president and our country. Below is an excerpt of Franklin Graham's statement:

Mueller Speaks, Transparency vs. Secrecy, Thomas vs. Ginsburg |
Mueller Speaks
Special Counsel Robert Mueller addressed reporters and the American people for the first time today. He declared that his investigation was over, that his office was closing and that he was resigning from the Justice Department.
Like the investigation and Mueller report itself, today's statement by the special counsel is unlikely to change any minds. Those who want to impeach the president still want to impeach him. Nancy Pelosi is still in a difficult position. Those who want to move on still want to move on.

Patriot Graves |
Patriot Graves
Monday marks Memorial Day, a national observance first known as Decoration Day. The first Memorial Day was observed on May 30, 1868, on the orders of General John Logan, commander of the Grand Army of the Republic. Flowers were placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery.
Initially meant as a time to remember those who fell during the bloody battles of our brutal Civil War, the holiday's significance has been extended to honor all those who paid the ultimate price for our nation. |

The Left vs. Reality, Liberal Policies Kill, Kudos To Ben Carson |
The Left vs. Reality
During the Cold War, which Ronald Reagan helped to win, virtually everything that our military recommended and that Reagan wanted to do was opposed by the left in Europe and America.
Fortunately, the strong leadership of Reagan, Margaret Thatcher and Pope John Paul II was able to overcome that opposition. As Reagan put it, "We won. They lost."
That was a lifetime ago. Reagan took office 38 years ago. And the presidents after him went back to sleepwalking through a dangerous world.
