NoKings.org activist organizing is planning nationwide anti-Amercan (anti-Trump) "protests" on June 14, the U.S. Army birthday national celebration. See their partners page. They have many far-left sponsors including teachers and labor unions, democrats, climate change believers, Bernie Sanders, LGBTXYZ groups, etc. Most likely many of these sponsor groups receive public funds.

WASHINGTON (AP) — As the nation’s capital cleans up from the culmination of World Pride this past weekend, focus now shifts to a very different massive event — Saturday’s military parade to honor the 250th birthday of the Army and the 79th birthday of President Donald Trump.“We’re preparing for an enormous turnout,” said Matt McCool of the Secret Service’s Washington Field office, who said more than 18 miles of “anti-scale fencing” would be erected and “multiple drones” would be in the air. The entire District of Columbia is normally a no-fly zone for drones. Army officials have estimated around 200,000...

Tenney proposed the Trump’s Birthday and Flag Day Holiday Establishment Act, a bill that would recognize both Trump’s birthday and Flag Day as a legal public holiday on June 14. The New York congresswoman said in a statement to Breitbart News that Trump, as the “most consequential president in modern American history,” he deserves his birthday to be recognized alongside George Washington’s birthday. She said in a statement: (No modern president has been more pivotal for our country than Donald J. Trump. As both our 45th and 47th President, he is the most consequential President in modern American history, leading...

When Donald J. Trump held his post-conviction news conference at Trump Tower after his hush-money trial in May, he did so in his signature red (tie), white (shirt) and blue (suit), standing before so many flags he looked like a head bobbing in an ocean of patriotic hues. It was a bit of star-spangled scenography for the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, who, more than any of his predecessors, has embraced the flag as his official fashion inspiration, using imagery to make it a synonym for himself. (One of his favorite personal factoids is that today, June 14, happens to be...

Thirteen Stars and Thirteen Stripes. On JUNE 14, 1777, the Second Continental Congress selected the FLAG of the United States.

On JUNE 14, 1783, General George Washington sent a "Circular Letter" to the thirteen Governors of the newly independent states. He stated: "I am now preparing to resign ...

Flag Day was once called the “runty stepchild among American national holidays” by the New York Times. While it may not be the grandest of our country’s celebrations, it’s impossible to talk about Flag Day without briefly discussing why Old Glory was originally created, and what it means today. We may know the flag as a strong symbol of patriotism, but at the time of the American Revolution, it had a much more pragmatic purpose: It existed to distinguish the American military forces from the British. It wasn’t really until the Civil War that the American flag became a widespread...

Our flag still means unity today. It stands for the union of our now 50 states into one nation, and every American who is a part of it.Just in time for Flag Day, New York Times reporter Mara Gay dragged the American flag into the race conversation, calling it “disturbing” to see “dozens of American flags” and instead arguing we must “separate America from whiteness.” The New York Times simply claimed her comments were taken out of context. Gay’s attitude showcases an urgent need to revisit the meaning of the American flag in our national conversation. Flag Day provides the...

“The Star-Spangled Banner” lyric, “Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just” echoed in my mind as I walked through the open, grassy field of the Saratoga Battlefield outside of Schuylerville, New York. Up to this point in my life, I had viewed history through the eyes of a learning child—a child who couldn’t fully grasp the concept of war. Now as a young woman with a little more life experience, I finally was beginning to understand the sacrifice war requires. The Revolutionary War, fought between 1775 and 1783, pitted a young America against England as she battled...

Country music star Hank Williams Jr.’s original single, written to stand up to the NFL and athletes who disrespect the US flag, is feeling a resurgence this week. Williams Jr. and tens of thousands or more NFL fans may no longer “be ready” for some football if players in large numbers take a knee during the National Anthem. The 2018 single called “Take a Knee, Take a Hike,” is trending up again and the lyrics make his viewpoint abundantly transparent about those who want to use sporting events and venues to make political statements. Oh, how we all love Monday...

Floating armadas assembled across the country in a massive show of support for President Trump on his 74th birthday. From California, to Michigan, on down to Florida, miles of boats of all sizes — from paddle boards to super yachts — moved in formation through lakes and intercostal waterways, as thousands of supporters lined the shores.

It’s fitting that Donald Trump’s birthday should fall on Flag Day because the values that Old Glory has always stood for are currently under assault from the radical left, and only President Trump can defend them. The outrageous situation unfolding in Seattle, Washington — where activists have taken control of several square blocks that were abandoned by the police — is a poignant example of the battle that is currently being fought between the defenders of societal order and the anarchists who want to tear down our most venerated institutions.“Radical Left Governor @JayInslee and the Mayor of Seattle are being...

On Flag Day and throughout National Flag Week, we pay tribute to the American flag, the most recognizable symbol of the principles for which our Republic stands.  For more than 200 years, the Stars and Stripes has represented liberty, justice, and the rule of law.  Recently, as our Nation has come together to respond to the coronavirus pandemic, our flag has been a reminder of the courage, tenacity, and loyalty that define the indomitable American spirit. Our great flag causes us to reflect humbly on the immeasurable price that has been paid to keep it “so gallantly streaming.”  Throughout our Nation’s history,...

America's flag, the Stars and Stripes, Ole' Glory, has been witness to the battle with the British at Ft. McHenry, Iowa Jima, 9/11 and so much more. There is the reason we should stop and recognize the importance of this cloth that has been our standard throughout America's history.

1775: Following the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the Second Continental Congress establishes the Continental Army. Ten rifle companies are formed: six from Pennsylvania, two from Maryland, and two from Virginia. The force is disbanded after the American Revolution, but in 1792, President George Washington forms the Legion of the United States – the nation’s first “professional” fighting force – renamed the United States Army in 1796. 1777: Congress formally declares the “Stars and Stripes” as the official flag of the thirteen United States. The declaration resolves that it consists of “thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union...

On June 14, 1777, the Second Continental Congress selected the flag of the United States. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson designated June 14 as “National Flag Day.” “I … call your attention to the approach of the anniversary of the day upon which the flag of the United States was adopted by the Congress as the emblem of the Union. … I therefore … request that throughout the nation … the fourteenth day of June be observed as Flag Day with special patriotic exercises … to give significant expressions to our thoughtful love of America, our comprehension of the great...

In 1964, a Congressional Resolution designated Bourbon as America’s native spirit. Since then, there is nowhere else in the world that can make a whiskey and call it Bourbon. Like Scotch, Cognac and some other spirits that must meet certain standards as well as be produced in a particular geographical region, Bourbon is a whiskey which is only so named if distilled in the United States. To legally be a considered Bourbon, it must be 51 percent corn, stored in new (not aged) charred-oak barrels and distilled no more than 160 proof and barreled at 125 proof. This particular whiskey...
