The Vietnam War marked a turning point in American consciousness—a “lightbulb” moment when the public recognized the United States was entangled in a conflict it had no business waging. The disillusionment was gradual but profound, driven by mounting casualties, moral questions, and the stark realization that national interests were ill-served by prolonged involvement. Today, a parallel shift appears to be emerging in the American public’s perception of Israel’s role in U.S. politics. Decades of unwavering support are giving way to scrutiny, as evidence of Israel’s influence—through lobbying, political pressure, and media narratives—raises questions about sovereignty and alignment with American values. Just as the Vietnam era prompted a reckoning, this moment calls for a sober reassessment of foreign entanglements that may no longer serve the national interest. Let us reflect on history’s lessons and ask: where do our loyalties truly lie? #ForeignPolicy #HistoryRepeats #USPolitics

POTUS QUOTES FROM EARLIER THIS MORNING: How many federal workers do you plan to lay off? [POTUS] Well, we may do a lot, and that's only because of the Democrats. And as you know, they want to be able to take care of people that have come into our country illegally, and no system can handle that, and so we're totally opposed to that, but we can't take it. We just can't do it. I'd love to do everybody. I'd love to do the whole world, but our country can't handle people that come into our country illegally, and they want to give them full health care benefits. They want to open the wall again. Can you believe it? I can't even believe it. They want to open the wall. They haven't taken away boys playing in women's sports. They haven't done that. Men playing in women's sports. It's like they don't change. They lost an election in a landslide, and they don't change.    How long does Hamas have to respond to ceasefire proposal? We're going to do about three or four days. We'll see how it is. All of the Arab countries are signed up. The Muslim countries are all signed up. Israel is all signed up. We're just waiting for Hamas, and Hamas is either going to be doing it or not, and if it's not, it's going to be a very sad end.   Can you negotiate with Hamas or is it take-it-or-leave-it? You know, with Hamas, we want it very simple. We want the hostages back immediately, and we want some good behavior. And, you know, pretty, pretty simple. You don't get simpler. Think of it. We've signed every country in the Middle East. This is like an impossible thing. It's never been done before. This is more than Gaza. Gaza is mixed up, but this is Gaza is a piece of it.   And if they reject the deal, you said that Israel has your backing to do everything they need to do —  I would let them go and do what they have to do. You know, we've killed about 25,000 Hamas. So certainly they paid a big price for October 7. And this is a whole new group. You know, they come in and they come in and they keep coming. But this is a whole different group, and their leadership has been killed three different times, so they paid a big price. We hope that they're going to have a nice, calm life. Maybe it won't happen, but if it does, it'll be one of the greatest things ever to happen. We'll have actual peace in the Middle East.   Are you preparing to take strikes against drug gangs inside Venezuela? We'll see what happens with Venezuela. Venezuela has been very dangerous with drugs and with other things, and they've been very, very dangerous. So we'll see what happens with Venezuela. We had a lot of drugs coming in through water. We call it water drugs just a simple term. We don't have any boats on the water. There are no boats. There are no fishing boats. There are no anything. So we hit a number of boats. You probably saw that, and since we did that, we have absolutely no drugs coming into our country via water, because it was lethal. And now we'll look at cartels. We're going to look very seriously at cartels coming by land.   What will you tell the Department of War. Why gather all the generals in one place for this speech?  This is only an esprit de corps. Do you know what that is, an esprit de corps? This is only a spirit. We're going to be talking to him. Pete Hegseth is talking right now. I'm going to have to leave because I have to talk too. But these are our generals, our admirals, our leaders, and it's a good thing, a thing like this has never been done before, because they came from all over the world. And there's a little bit of expense, not much, but there's a little expense to that. We don't like to waste it. We'd rather spend it on bullets and rockets, frankly. But this was the one time we had to do a great spiritizing. It's going to be great. I've seen it already. We have every general, every Admiral. We have great people. We have our real warriors over there. And when they're not good, when we don't think they're our warriors, you know what happens? We say, you're fired. Get out. We had some real bad ones last time, you know.

“Never mind the Russians, the biggest threat to America is AIPAC “ —Nixon tapes 1973

Hear me out. Antifa is now classified as a domestic terrorist organization. They operate in Dem-run cities, and are protected by Dem policies. Could Antifa be the catalyst that allows Trump to envoke the Insurrection Act and deploy NG to Dem cities nationwide?

President Trump: On that terrible day — 9/10/2025 — our greatest evangelist for American liberty became immortal. He's a martyr now for American freedom. I know I speak for everyone here today when I say that none of us will ever forget Charlie Kirk, and neither now will history.

POTUS took the stage at 3:24pm, as Lee Greenwood sings “God Bless the USA” live. It comes on the heels of emotional and tearful remarks from Erika Kirk, in which she shared Charlie Kirk’s life and faith — and said she forgives her husband’s shooter. During Erika Kirk's speech, your pooler saw folks laying their heads on each other’s shoulders, with their arms around one another and wiping tears away from their eyes with tissues. —via pool

If you watch one thing today, let it be this — the truly remarkable display of grace and compassion from Mrs. Erika Kirk as she forgives her husband's assassin because that's what Christ would do. We love you, Erika.

Sunday, September 21, 2025, 3:19 PM EDT Arrival at State Farm Stadium Motorcade arrived at State Farm Stadium at 12:16pm. Pool did not see POTUS get out of the Beast. Some onlookers came out to greet the motorcade on our brief drive through the Phoenix suburbs. Some were waving or recording. Others had American flags. Didn't appear to be any protesters -- either folks supportive or just curious. Heavy security presence as we entered the stadium grounds.
