Today in History June 25th

Seems to be a day of battles & wars



The Korean war started by the invasion of the south by the north which pulled us into the "police action" for 3 years

 Col. Custer lost the battle of Little Big Horn in 1876

Down in DC in 1973 the Watergate legal battle was in progress with John Dean testifying which lead to then president Nixon to resign from office in 1974

Peruta off the Cuff 2017.02.16 - A Look Back at Fees

I just Love Ed Peruta 

Ed does his research, he's going to get the news story and he's going to give you a piece of his mind whether you want to hear it or not...

Here's his take from last year on the fees being discussed up in the halls of Hartford

Illegal Immigration Has Black Americans “Struggling for Our Very Lives”

There are a growing number of black leaders like Ted Haynes who are speaking out against illegals in the USA. 

This 2015 video has Ted Haynes from Project 21 &  Cesar Luna from Border Angels (a group that helps illegal aliens) facing off on the issue of the how having illegal aliens here is harming the Black American community and robbing citizens of jobs.

Illegal Aliens being in the country is hurting the black community due to the lack of jobs which are creating higher unemployment in the Black American community.

Not the focus of this discussion; is the additional competing for the limited resources for educational funding grants as well for our citizen descendants of slaves Black American children. 

Our children are being forced to be in substandard public schools because the resources are being squandered in addition to the depleting of scholarship opportunities.

CNN Meme War (Starship Troopers) InfoWars #CNNBlackmail #CNNMemeWar

This has been quite a crazy year 2017

This  #Artful8th Year in Review #YiR item is from the Meme War against CNN 

Remember when they went on the attack against a guy who posted a meme that got even more famous because our president retweeted it?

 #FakeNews CNN thought they'ed teach the poor guy a lesson by finding who he was and threatening with "Doxing" so that he'd lose his job

The people on the internet did not take kindly to this corporate bullying and a slew of memes flooded the internet at CNN's expense...

The Story Of Kwanzaa: From Civil Rights To Corporate America

Next week will be the start of the Kwanzaa celebration which starts on Dec 26th. Kwanzaa is an African-American holiday that is celebrated during the week after Christmas ending on New Years Day in many African-American communities.

It has been more of a Community Celebration than a Private Family Celebration for the majority of people that our family has known in these modern times. A time of reflection & respecting our elders & enjoying  our neighbors, community members, friends, blood family our wider circle of unrelated but we consider them to be family. 

The intent of the celebration is to encourage & instill positive values from the elders to the younger generations as well as foster a sense of belonging in the community. Many community celebrations have a marketplace area to not only buy items but additionally connect people with community services that they may have been unaware of.

Have you been to a Community Kwanzaa Celebration in your area?

The video below explains some of the history of Kwanzaa

Happy Thanksgiving

From our family to yours

State Senator Michael McLachlan is 

fighting hard to save money for our families 

and working hard to #FixCT

The general assembly caucuses are currently working on a new budget 

but from what is leaking out it still sounds like the original Balanced Budget that was passed and then vetoed by the governor is much better for all.

Our families are struggling...
 but they just do not seem to care how much our families are hurting...

They have their cushie benefits they do not care about our families
Their political crony friends push out fear mongering half truths and outright lies about the balanced budget that the governor vetoed...

#DemocratsRaisingTaxesAgain 

Why are the State Senators and State Reps from Hartford hurting our families? 

Why are they NOT Fighting for CT Families;

Our Children, Our Veterans & Our Seniors?

 funds to pay for Care for Kids daycare funding, 

Meals on Wheels which feed our Seniors & Low Income Disabled Adults or 

funding for Military Funerals?

The Mark of the Beast - A video about The Chip

we've heard about the "Mark of the Beast" regardless of our being Christian or not 

It's become part of the world conversation that for those who don't read the bible have relegated to sci-fy movies... 

The chip is no longer a sci-fy idea but is actively being used in other parts of the world and now starting to be promoted here in the USA by some companies for their employees and even one offering it to their customers as well.

This is a documentary that was created over in the UK a couple of years ago;

With a local company making the news a few months ago talking on the news how they're having their employees chipped and offering it to their customers I was wondering what others thoughts were about the "Chip" and it's relationship to the "Mark of the Beast"...

9-11 Questioning Our Memory

* - September 11th 2001 - * 

The Day the American Homeland Was Attacked  

The history books are being rewritten about what happened & speculate on the reasons why.

The day is marked by fewer "Specials" on tv that celebrate the heroes that both lived & died that terrible day. Are we already starting to forget what happened?

How soon will the day become forgotten as if it's ancient history? 

When that happens will there be those who will start denying that it ever occurred? 

Our students are not being taught about the holocaust because the history books are being rewritten How can our young people learn proper history if the books are leaving out the important details? Why is political correctness & hurt feelings getting in the way of true history because there are those who are denying that the holocaust ever happened?

Dr. Duke Pesta on Common Core and the Shocking Sexual Education Standard...

Dr Duke Pesta speaks about the Common Core Sexuality Standards...
As we are now approaching the municipal election cycles where our town council members and board of education members will be elected it might be a good time for you to start asking the canddates where they stand and what do they know about Common Core and what is going to be taught to our children in our public schools.

Do you know what is being taught to your children or do you mistakenly think that our public schools are teaching our children to read, write and critically think like they used to do many many years ago?

Our taxes keep being raised yet for all of the money that is being spent what is happening in our schools? 
Are our children being better educated or are we just wasting our money on highly paid administrators who in turn waste money on highly over priced items that do not actually help our students?
