“Think to the future, not to the past. But learn from the past.”
I guess you would have had to see it, but to me this part of his speech is golden.
“Set your sights high, and act on it!”
The words of one of the most indisputable geniuses America has ever produced. Enormously successful in business, entertainment and politics. Unheard of success.
He’s gonna read “The Snake.”
Those Marines are indeed curious. They might be from a local VFW unit. They sometimes do color guard presentations. But they don’t quite seem to be as “spit shined” as regulars should be. And I notice the rifles are nowhere near being current issue. Those ‘O3 Springfields are in service only with the occasional drill team. But notice no bayonets. ROTC units can use de-milled ones. Any self-respecting current unit would have those rifle slings either “whited” or well oiled but leather slings have been out of service for half a century.
I occasionally loan our local VFW unit random pieces of hardware so’s they can put on a good show for a funeral, parade, etc. But those rifles are too old even for that, mostly. And oh, by the way, who the heck would let a Marine color guard check out their service weapons for a private party? I’m suspicious that they’re Biden’s rent-a-Marines. Not seeing insignia which could get them busted for impersonating.
Trashy posing on the left. Is the one in front Kimberly Guilfoyle?

Re: Marines at Mar-a-Lago
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Marines at Trump resort did not break rules on politicking in uniform”
(snip) Marine Corps officials said a viral photo of four uniformed service members posing at former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate did not take place during a political fundraiser, but instead at an approved nonprofit event without any connection to the Republican presidential nominee.
In a statement posted on social media over the weekend, service officials said the Marines — reserve members of the 4th Air Naval Gunfire Liaison Company — were in attendance on April 11 at the Florida resort to serve as a color guard for a gala hosted by the Grey Team, a nonprofit organization focused on preventing military suicides.
“The request was reviewed by Marine Forces Reserve Community Relations and deemed eligible for support,” service leaders said in a statement. “The event was open to the public and helped raise awareness about military and veteran suicides.
“The event was neither a political fundraiser, nor was the 45th president of the United States in attendance.”

I just read the guidance, obviously not against the UCMJ if veterans, Reservist not on AD wouldn’t seem to cover them as a color guard. Kinzinger is a douchebag.
Thanks for the update, can’t believe an upstanding hack like Kinsinger would bend the facts.
Thank you.
I was not impressed with the outfit at all. What passes for fashion is often in my view hooker style.
Thank you.
If the Leathernecks were from a reserve unit that might explain the century old rifles. Reserves are frequently slow to clean out the closets and from what I can see , it looks like they left the bolts home. And without bayonets they would not have passed my inspection. If you’re gonna do it, shine it up and do it right.
That suggestion is a good one. I’ve thought for a long time that Elon is one of the 3 non-military members of the inside group comprising the Q team. It’s likely Musk or his security team already knows this and has passed the information along to PDJT. With all of the DS, the mentally manipulated, the extreme left, and generic anti-Trump people out there, President Trump would be dead 6 times over if they didn’t have the most excellent sources inside social media, in addition to an exceptional protective detail.
They were from 4th ANGLICO, better @ coordinating fires than drill. And of course it was a non-partisan Reserve approved event, unlike the lying POS said.
What Do You Think? MSG in NY City, Fri. June 14 — We all meet up for DJT Surprise Birthday Party. Holds 20,000 seated - more, I guess, standing and dancing with our party hats on!
