On April 30, 1975, the city of Saigon fell to the North Vietnamese communists. A big military parade in front of hundreds of thousands of flag-waving Vietnamese was held last month in what is now called Ho Chi Minh City to mark the fall of Saigon 50 years ago. Many conservatives have been reflecting on this event. I don’t agree with what some of them are saying because they are apologists for the immoral, unnecessary, undeclared, senseless, criminal Vietnam War.

https://www.lewrockwell.com/lrc-blog/donald-trump-militarist/ Trump will host a military parade on June 14 in Washington, D.C. to honor U.S. military veterans and active-duty servicemembers and to commemorate the 250th birthday of the murderous U.S. Army. June 14 is also Trump’s birthday. But, of course, that has nothing to do with it. 7:34 am on May 3, 2025 The Best of Laurence M. Vance

“Whatever they tax us, we tax them.” ~ Donald TrumpOn April 2—President Trump’s “Liberation Day”—he imposed, then changed, and then delayed, reciprocal tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners. Said Trump: “We’re going to charge countries for doing business in our country and taking our jobs, taking our wealth, taking a lot of things that they’ve been taking over the years.”Nothing could be further from the truth.
