Yes Virginia, Seinfeld was correct. There is no Palestine. It’s Israel home of the Jewish People.
Seinfeld was leaving the basketball game the other night when a pro Hamas supporter asked him about a free Palestine. His truthful answer was this. ” It doesn’t exist.”
Well, the congresswoman who allegedly married her brother was upset. Upset because Jerry was being truthful.
Nuff Said.

Ploesti … 1, 2, 3…
Romania’s Ploesti oil fields supplied between 30 to 60 % of the petroleum products necessary to lubricate
and fuel Germany’s war machine. This is a tribute to the courage and dedication to duty by the officers
and men of the United States Army Air Force in its efforts to bring Nazi Germany to defeat.
Ploesti 1…
June 11-12, 1942 the United States Army Air Corps as part of the “Halverson Project” entered the battle
against the Axis Powers, sending 13 B-24 Liberators to attack Romanian oil facilities from Fayid, Egypt.
12 aircraft attacked the facilities but only 7 aircraft survived to return to a base in Syria.
The raid did minimal damage to the facilities, but German and Romanian forces realized the refineries and
oil stage facilities were at serious risk from aerial attack by bombers.
They began to make the refineries and storage facilities the most heavily fortified area against air attack of
any outside the Third Reich by placing anti-aircraft batteries, barrage balloons and fighter aircraft to
protect these vital resources from air attack.
This was the first US air action in the European Theater of World War II.
Ploesti 2…
Planning for Operation Tidal Wave began almost immediately after the abortive raid of June, 1942, but the
lack of available aircraft and the need to strike targets and facilities in western Europe took precedent.
Planning resumed in April of 1943 When General Henry H. Arnold ordered his staff to continue to
develop plans for a resumption of raids on the Ploesti oil facilities. Due to the distance involved,
Liberators were the aircraft of choice, but the addition of bomb-bay fuel tanks was necessary for the
planes to have enough fuel to attack Ploesti and return to the base in Libya.
On August first, 1943, 177 B-24s began the flight to Ploesti, 162 actually arrived over the target. Of that
number only 88 returned to the base, of the 88 that returned, 55 had battle damage. 310 airmen were
killed or missing with an additional 190 airmen captured or interned for a devastating total of 500 airmen
lost to the raid.
A number of factors contributed to the tremendous loss of airmen and aircraft; an order to maintain radio
silence, navigational errors, the loss of cohesiveness due to heavy cloud cover, mechanical failures, a
tactical decision to conduct the raid at low altitude and finally, discovery by German radar.
With the defenders knowing they were coming, the low level flight, the need to fly straight and level in
order to drop their ordnance accurately and not all aircraft arriving at the target at the same time,
decimated the overall effectiveness necessary to destroy and or reduce the refinery out put.
A reconnaissance flight on August 3rd to access bomb damage and an additional recon flight conducted
on August 19 revealed that little reduction of refinery output had been achieved.
Ploesti 3…
Ploesti 3 was a series of raids against the oil production facilities beginning April 5, 1944 continuing until
August 19, 1944. The raids of 1944 were not small raids, they continued to grow in the number of aircraft
involved utilizing both B17s and B 24s and nearly 60,000 airmen. The total number of bombers in the
raids ranged from 400 to over 700 in the spring and summer of 1944.
By April of 1944 the raids began utilizing captured air fields in southern Italy that substantially shortened
the flight time and flying over large stretches of open water. This also allowed the Allies to use fighter
aircraft to fly cover for the bombers, but losses still mounted with Bomber Command losing a total of 350
heavy bombers and 3,000 casualties.
Fighter pilots began to ask to be included in the Ploesti raids as “that was where the fight was”. Their
contribution to the overall campaign cannot be over looked. Bomber crews hailed the fighter escorts as
allowing more airmen to not only drop their bombs where they were needed, but allowed many to return
to the bases where the flights originated.
By the end of the campaign over 13,000 tons of bombs had been dropped on the Ploesti oil facilities. The
conclusion of the air campaign against Ploesti would witness the end of the Marxist government of
Romania and the capture of the fields by Soviet troops in late 1944.
These raids, conducted over three years, 1942, 1943 and 1944 produced numerous acts of valor, Medals of
Honor, Distinguished Service Medals, Silver Stars, Bronze Stars and Purple Hearts, some being awarded
posthumously.
That the Allies sought to curtail fuel and lubricants from Romania definitely helped to shorten the war in
Europe and hastened the end of Hitler’s reign.
American industry and its capacity to manufacture aircraft and deliver them to the theaters of war is to be
commended. Without their efforts, the war may have dragged on for years.
Authors Note: I choose to concentrate of the raids themselves than the individuals during these dangerous
and deadly raids.

Proof that Democrats are still fighting WWII the Civil War. Graham Planter.
I remember this loon from California once said that the Democrat party of its father and grandfather were the Democrat party of the past. And this person decided to shack up with some black guy as if this was proof of redemption.
Now nationwide we’re seeing Democrats rally behind a former Nazi and womanizer. He blames this all on his past military service. Someone should tell him that idolizing Nazi’s and KKK was the party of the past. Yeah right.
Simple means test for all federal social programs. Show us your papers.
We don’t have an undocumented program, we have a program with illegals with no papers. Simple solution is that in order to qualify for any social program, a person must prove they’re here legally. If you want Medicare, Medicaid, Snap, or any other program where the freebies are dished out, you must show us proof that you belong.
Same goes for the states. For any federal dollars, states must give access to their voter rolls, and Medicaid rolls.

American Consumers Keep Spending.
We’re told by the left that folks are dying in the streets. Yes the same folks who survived Biden’s almost 10% inflation can’t make it with 3% inflation. Same folks who paid from $5-10 a gallon for gas can’t make it on $4-8.00 a gallon for gas. So how can that be?
We have this from Breitbart.
Consumer spending rose 0.5 percent from March, the Commerce Department said Thursday. Gasoline and other energy goods were a major driver, rising 5.7 percent for the month. But the gains were not confined to the pump.
Spending excluding food and energy rose 0.4 percent in April. Spending excluding food, energy, and housing climbed 0.3 percent. Services spending excluding energy and housing also rose 0.4 percent, showing that consumers continued to spend across a broad range of categories even as fuel costs took a larger bite out of household budgets.
Spending at restaurants and hotels rose 0.75 percent and spending on recreational services jumped 1.4 percent. Those are highly discretionary categories that would likely see declines if consumers needed to pull back because of high gas prices.

Democrats can vote for a woman who hates the flag or a woman who didn’t realize the dead guy was her husband.
A left-wing Sacramento city councilwoman who is running for Congress has repeatedly turned her back on the American flag and refused to say the Pledge of Allegiance. She is seeking to unseat longtime Democratic Rep. Doris Matsui in the June primary election. A few years back reports had said that Matsui said she was running to replace the dead guy. He was her husband.
Only in California.
If at first you don’t succeed you try try again. Another Progressive takes a shot at our President.
Saturday we had another progressive try to shoot his way into the White House and of course the first thing the MSM is saying is this. Oh it wasn’t political another Liberal with mental issues. Always the mental issue card. And the Democrat politicians are saying we need more gun control. Maybe what we need the death penalty for any Liberal who owns a gun.
Why the educated young from leftist colleges embrace socialism.
Below is what Microsoft’s leftist is saying out loud.
Educated young people from left‑leaning colleges often embrace socialism because of a mix of institutional incentives, cultural framing, economic pressures, and identity‑based moral narratives that make socialist ideas feel morally righteous, intellectually coherent, and emotionally satisfying. This isn’t about intelligence or naivety — it’s about the environment they’re shaped in.
Core takeaway: Socialism becomes appealing when students are immersed in institutions where capitalism is framed as morally suspect, activism is rewarded, and economic anxiety is high.
Most universities — especially elite or left‑leaning ones — have:
For many students, socialism is not primarily an economic theory — it’s a social identity.
So many simply conform.
Socialism offers a simple emotional promise: “You are struggling because the system is rigged — and we can fix it by redistributing power and wealth.”
That message lands hard when you’re 22, and staring at $60k in loans.
Platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and X reward:
Socialist content is easy to package:
It spreads faster than nuanced economic arguments.
Most students:
Without exposure to trade‑offs, socialism feels clean and idealistic. Capitalism feels messy and unfair.
Modern progressive ideology teaches that:
Socialism becomes the “moral corrective” to systemic injustice.
This is why the same students who embrace socialism often embrace:
It’s one integrated worldview.
Students gain:
…by participating in activism aligned with left‑wing causes.
Socialism is the ideological backbone of most campus activism.
For many, socialism is a form of generational rebellion:
It’s a way to differentiate themselves morally and culturally.
College is a bubble where:
In that environment, socialism feels workable.
Real‑world constraints don’t exist.
Most campuses lack:
Without ideological diversity, socialism becomes the default.
Say what? Virginia governor tells teachers unions to suck eggs?
In Virginia it’s been a law that a teacher’s union can only come in if invited. Presently out of the 133 school districts in Virginia less then 20 have done so. But the legislature passed a new law.
It would have allowed public school teachers, among other public-sector employees, to form unions and negotiate over their wages and working conditions throughout Virginia.
In layman’s terms the union bosses could just walk in and say we’re union and here’s what you will pay the workers. Well, the governor (and rightfully so) vetoed this crazy law.
Stay tuned.
Sorry Virginia. To the victor belongs the spoils.
Years back the Mahoning Valley had a very famous lawyer, Democrat Party lawyer. He was attacked by Republicans and other Democrats. He ran the party with an iron fist, and some claimed he was the mob’s favorite lawyer. Nepotism was a tool he used. To the victor belongs the spoils.
I openly supported two Democrats. Jim Trafficant and Marc Dann. Both promised me jobs and both were convicted of crimes. One went to jail and one resigned as the Attorney General. Both believed in the slogan To the victor belongs the spoils.
For years that’s how the Democrats ran local, state, and national politics. This is where gerrymandering comes into play. Blacks and Latinos vote for Democrats they get into office with gerrymandering districts. To the victor belongs the spoils.
Now with control of the Supreme Court the Republicans are fixing the wrongs created in the south and some midwestern states. To the victor belongs the spoils.
