The Charlie Daniels Band said someone glued a spouse’s military ID to the marble a few months ago and damaged the grave. Then, someone dug up a newly planted dogwood tree and took it. The CDB reported Mt. Juliet Police will be increasing patrols near his grave and video surveillance will soon be installed at the gravesite.

Day 307 of the Dictatorship of COVID-19, Day 307 of America and the World Held Hostage... Well there you have it "Playboy's Theme" reminding me of the gretest smear being dropped these days against Patriots, Trump Supporters, Anti-Lockdown, Anti-Vaccine people... Washington DC Under Martial Law Fear Of Revolution No I'm Not Talking About Today I'm Talking About August 28, 1963. Facebook and Twitter weren't there to censor Dr. Martin Luther King but the US Justice Department was running the show.

Charlie Daniels' wife's spirits were lifted this week by President Trump. The country music legend, best known for his monster 1979 hit “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” died earlier this month of a hemorrhagic stroke. He was 83. On Monday, his widow, Hazel Daniels, and his son, Charlie Daniels Jr., took over his official Instagram account to share a personal letter addressed to Hazel from the POTUS.

Charlie Daniels, who passed away Monday, was a great musician, a great man and a great example of what makes this nation great. He should be remembered not only for his contributions to popular music but also as a role model for the American dream. Starting from his high school days in North Carolina -- as he explained in his memoir "Never Look at the Empty Seats" -- he never turned away from his dream or the hard work needed to achieve it. "I wanted to be a professional musician more than anything else in the world, and ever since...

With a career that spanned both generations and genres, Charlie Daniels will be remembered for his musical genius and his freedom-loving heart. >Charlie Daniels, singer, songwriter, country music legend, and pioneer of Southern rock, died Monday at the age of 83. Musically, Daniels was best known for his song, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” but beyond his legendary musical talent, he was an outspoken patriot, veterans advocate, and man of faith. Doctors said Daniels died of a hemorrhagic stroke in Hermitage, Tenn. Monday morning.Born and raised in rural North Carolina before moving to Nashville, Daniels started his career as...

I was alerted a few hours ago, and I was surprised that now, looking through FR posts, no one has posted.Our beloved Patriot has passed on.

Country music and southern rock legend Charlie Daniels has passed away after suffering a stroke, his representatives announced Monday. The Grand Ole Opry member and Country Music Hall of Famer was 83.

What happened to George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis policeman recently cannot be explained away by emotions, feelings, nor necessity. It is a flagrant and careless violation of the basic code of all policemen to protect and serve. I don’t believe that placing one’s knee on the neck of an already subdued man can be found in any police training manual anywhere. Also culpable are the other policemen who stood by without putting an end to the obvious deadly overuse of force. A scary parallel is the case of Eric Garner, who died as the result of a...

I am going to do my level best to aim this column straight down the middle, glancing neither left nor right, in what the politicians in D.C. call a bipartisan fashion. It is an attempt to circumvent personal political preferences, step around the hyperbolic, the rhetorical, and the prejudiced vendettas so firmly ingrained into our minds by media on the left and on the right. I want to ask a question and I am not going to give my opinion, but leave it to everybody who reads this to answer, the only caveat being, that you be honest with yourself,...

Just reading the headlines on the Drudge Report is like looking at the Apocalypse Manifesto, supposition, innuendo, rumors, prejudice, sensationalism and scare tacticsThere was a time when Drudge just reported the news, those days are evidently over.— Charlie Daniels (@CharlieDaniels) March 22, 2020 Drudge Report is terrible, deleted the app, my guess is owned by a country, company or globalist entity that wants America to fall 👎🏻— RIC (@RICJones001) March 29, 2020 FLASHBACK: Never Trumper Daniel Halper joins Drudge Report as Editor in April 2017 https://t.co/Oab7vaShig— Verdad Teller 🛡♦ (@Truthteller1349) March 29, 2020

Since the advent of coronavirus, America has had little time or energy for, or interest in anything else. We try to keep up with the latest mortality rates, the number of infected, the spread, and all the other moving parts associated with the virus, and I do mean moving parts because the situation changes so rapidly, sometimes on an hourly basis. Well now, we at least have a plan of action and as painful as it may be, it seems the only meaningful path we have open to us. I have decided to shelter in place for the next three...

For the record, country legend Charlie Daniels thinks the DNC’s not doing themselves — or Joe Biden — too many favors by pushing Biden as their nominee: Is the DNC so evil they’re willing to elect a man to the most pressurized job on earth who can’t even remember what state he’s in? A man who obviously has blank spots in his thought patterns? This man can’t lead the free world and you bunch of power mad perverts know it!

We have long heard the phrase “The dumbing down of America” to describe the effort of the Democratic Party to indoctrinate, under-educate, immigrate and acclimate, to influence the coming elections to favor the Democrat candidates. Usually, when we think about this process, we tend to imagine it to be the poorly educated, illegal aliens, the huddled masses who dwell generationally at the bottom of the prosperity chain, looking for someone to blame their plight on. And such a movement does exist in those echelons as the “progressive” wing of the Democratic Party strives to tilt the playing field by hook,...

At the writing of this column, it is a well-known fact that a billionaire from New York is trying to buy the presidency. His well-financed strategy is such that he is able to circumvent the heavy lifting of the smaller primaries while the other candidates are slugging it out visiting small town gatherings, shaking hands in diners, and walking the streets letting the folks get to know them. Instead, Michael Bloomberg has chosen to stand above the sweaty fray, buy expensive ads on the Super Bowl and the Daytona 500, and flood the length and width of the nation with...

Charlies Daniels I will be 83 years old in October and will be the first to admit that, for the most part, the world has totally outpaced me technologically, style-wise, musically, and certainly insofar as what is and is not socially acceptable. And while an octogenarian fiddle player from Tennessee may be miles and decades behind in recognizing and embracing the “in” thing and what is socially acceptable in this ever-changing beehive we live in, there are a few eternal truths that can never go out of style or be pushed to the side and ignored if the human...

Charlie Daniels We are just finishing up a month-long run across America, East Coast to West Coast and back, and contrary to the dire warnings of Democratic politicians and their lap puppy sycophants in the media who claim we are on the brink of a recession, what I saw was America at work with busy retail outlets, highways full of eighteen-wheelers and railroads with frequent, and long, loaded freight trains moving raw materials and transporting finished goods to markets where demand is high. Now, I make no claim to being an economist or to having any insight into the...

Charlie Daniels I will say at the outset that I have never believed the accusations of Russian collusion the Democrats have been trying to prove on President Trump for the last three years, and I had no expectations that Robert Mueller’s testimony before congressional committees would do anything to change my mind in the least. But I was, however, expecting a vigorous, well put together rehash of the information contained in the report that bears his name, an ordered and well-prepared presentation that would leave enough loose threads for the Democrats, who were foaming at the mouth in apprehension...

Charlie Daniels I can’t bring myself to believe that there aren’t enough Americans alive who still remember the reality and abject failure of socialism and the wide path of human deprivation and suffering, shattered societies and failing dictatorships all socialist governments eventually morph into. I know I do. I remember the Iron Curtain, the Berlin Wall, the people who were shot and killed for nothing more than trying to escape the horrors a totalitarian regime always wreaks on its people, the long lines of people in the Soviet Union just trying to procure the basic food and necessities for...

Charlie Daniels When I hear people say that former President Obama is responsible for the good economy we are experiencing, it reminds me of a statement he made about manufacturing jobs in America. The former president said , “… some of those jobs of the past are just not gonna come back,” and questioned Donald Trump’s ability to do what he was promising, to bring back manufacturing jobs. Obama even went on to mockingly ask, “What magic wand do you have?” And statements about the new reality, a scenario where America must accept a reduction in lifestyle, a downgrading...

Charlie Daniels =============================================================== Robert Mueller’s summation of his investigation of President Trump has – at least in my opinion – actually created more questions than it has answered. His admission of not being able to prove or disprove obstruction of justice either speaks to gross incompetence or nothing to be found, and his willingness to make the strange statement, “If we had been able to prove the president innocent of obstruction, we would have said so,” has cast a shadow of total uncertainty over his entire two-year fiasco. If Trump is guilty, I want him held accountable, but if he...
