Original Here By   RYAN SAAVEDRA  @REALSAAVEDRA A city located in Rep. Ilhan Omar's (D-MN) 5th Congressional District voted this month to eliminate saying the Pledge of Allegiance during city council meetings because it doesn't want to offend people. CBS Minnesota reports that members of the St. Louis Park City Council voted unanimously in a 5 to 0 vote to ditch saying the Pledge of Allegiance "in order to create a more welcoming environment to a diverse community." City Council member Anne Mavity sponsored the change, saying that the Pledge of Allegiance did not reflect the city's values, according to KARE 11. "Not everyone who does business with the city or has a conversation is a citizen," Mavity said. "They certainly don't need to come into city council chambers and pledge their allegiance to our country in order to tell us what their input is about a sidewalk in front of their home." City Council member Tim Brausen...

On Sunday MSNBC played a clip from the Alice B. Toklas Club Annual Pride Breakfast in San Francisco in which 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) said she was running for president so President Donald Trump could not take the country back before all couples could marry. Harris said, “The current occupant of the White House has no appreciation, no interest clearly and probably no knowledge of this history, of this work.” She continued, “He says he wants to make America great again. Again for whom? Back before couples could marry, all couples? Back before gay couples could adopt? ” She added, “Well, I’m president because we’re not going back.” Thanks for visiting ! ⭐Please be sure to follow my Blog on Disqus to get all the latest posts and updates.⭐ Click Here to Get Tex's Place delivered by email (newsletter style)!

Holocaust survivor Ed Mosberg (pictured) wants AOC removed from Congress. Getty Original By Doree Lewak There are few remaining survivors of concentration camps. Ed Mosberg is one of them. And the 93-year-old from Morris Plains, NJ, has no time for Rep. ­Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s statements last week, when she called the southern border’s migrant detention centers “concentration camps.” “She should be removed from Congress. She’s spreading anti-Semitism, hatred and stupidity,” Mosberg told The Post. “The people on the border aren’t forced to be there — they go there on their own will. If someone doesn’t know the difference, either they’re playing stupid or they just don’t care.” On June 18, the Bronx/Queens politician posted a video on Instagram in which she said: “The United States is running concentration camps on our southern border, and that is exactly what they are — they are concentration camps.” Mosberg, who lost his entire family during the Holocaust and himself ...

By Charlie Spiering President Donald Trump met with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un on Sunday, stepping into North Korea as he shook hands in a moment of high-stakes diplomacy. Trump made history, becoming the first American president to step foot into North Korea, despite decades of conflict between the two nations. Trump initiated the meeting at the demilitarized zone (DMZ) between North Korea and South Korea, first publicly calling for the meeting on Twitter before North Korea moved quickly to make the meeting happen. “Good to see you again”, said Kim through a translator, meeting at the DMZ. “I would never have expected to see you at this place.” The two leaders spoke briefly as Trump shook hands and then walked into North Korea and shook hands again as North Korean media scrambled around the pair of leaders to capture the moment. American press shouted at North Korean press and cameramen who were interrupting the shot of the historic meeting. Trump just became ...

By Larry Elder About reparations, a skeptical President Barack Obama in 2016 told reparations proponent Ta-Nehisi Coates that it would divide the country. Obama said: “It is hard to think of any society in human history in which a majority population has said that as a consequence of historic wrongs, we are now going to take a big chunk of the nation’s resources over a long period of time to make that right. … So the bottom line is that it’s hard to find a model in which you can practically administer and sustain political support for those kinds of efforts.” The polls bear Obama out. Just 26% of Americans support reparations. In fact, according to conservative Michael Medved, since so many of today’s non-black Americans are descendants of post-Civil War immigrants, as few as 5% of today’s whites have a “generational” connection to slavery. University of North Carolina historian Joseph T. Glatthaar, author of “Soldiering in the Army of Northern Virginia: A Statistical Portrai...

From  Judicial Watch With half of the nation’s Border Patrol workforce reassigned to provide humanitarian support for “vulnerable populations,” a record number of illegal immigrants have slipped into the United States and “disappeared into border communities,” the agency’s chief told Congress. The overwhelmed frontline Homeland Security agency has managed to apprehend a record 593,000 illegal aliens this year, but an additional 100,000 have made it through and remain somewhere in the country. The distressing numbers were delivered last week by Border Patrol Chief Carla L. Provost, who told a House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Border Security that the situation along the southwest border is a crisis that is putting national security at risk. “The demographic shift towards more vulnerable populations, combined with overwhelming numbers, has caused 40 to 60 percent of Border Patrol agents to be pulled away from our border security mission to provide humanitarian support—th...

Reports from those tasked with providing medical treatment for migrants crossing the border illegally into the U.S. are illustrating the overcrowded conditions in government-run detention centers are undoubtedly far better than what many migrants endure on their journey to America. An unnamed “medical professional” in El Paso described the horrifying evidence of trauma and torture common among the thousands of illegal immigrants who arrive in the U.S. every day, as well as the real risks posed by those bringing serious diseases and medical issues along with them. “There was a female, 10 years old, who was found with 20 different types of semen inside her body. She was dispatched to a family member. The girl who was with her who was supposedly a family member was not really a family member, just someone who bought her from her family in Guatemala,” the Texas medical professional told  Big League Politics . “These are real problems that exist here on the border. There are so...

gary sinise foundation blog A marine’s life saved by honor, gratitude, and rock & roll June 24th, 2019 Original Here “I’m not going to sit here and deal with this sh*t anymore,” recounts Andrew Bozeman, a retired Sergeant in the Marine Corps, about his plan to commit suicide on March 30, 2013. Bozeman, raised in Haines City in Polk County, Florida, was passed on promotion to Staff Sergeant after nearly a decade in the Marines. With two deployments under his belt since 2004, having previously served four years in the Army, he felt he was being thrown away by not moving up in rank. Having enlisted in the military after graduating from high school in 2001, he asked himself, “what do I do now?” “All I know is being a Marine. All I know is deployments and doing my job and serving my mission and serving my country,” he said. “I didn’t want to think about being a civilian again. I didn’t know what to do,” he said about not being able to re-enlist. “I felt t...
