The brave Ukrainian nation has proved that the Nixon Doctrine, which Reagan strengthened and proved feasible, can work in the 21st century.
Memorial Day honors American fallen soldiers who died in war. It was formerly known as Decoration Day, as it was a marked occasion to visit the war dead’s graves and decorate them with flags and other patriotic ornaments. Whether one accepts it or not, Providence has anointed America with certain qualities and tasks. It’s role in the modern world cannot be overlooked or denied. The U.S. is the bulwark of Western civilization and values.
The two world wars bore a cost of over 522,000 American lives. This price tag for freedom is never cheap. American soldiers have paid it time and time again. The post-World War II order greatly advantaged Soviet expansionism. The Truman Doctrine, a foreign policy course designed to contain communist imperialism, was the established U.S. norm for 34 years (1947-1981). Korea, Western Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia were all conflict theaters where this defensive blueprint was implemented.

Gun control is not, obviously, the culprit variable. What are the reasons then for school mass shootings?.
Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, was the site of a tragic mass shooting on May 24. The killing spree perpetrated by Salvador Ramos, a disturbed 18-year-old, cast a toll of 21 mortal victims, 19 of them children, and 17 wounded. As is the case whenever there is an incident of this type, the Left singularly focuses on only one thing: exploiting a nation’s anguish and emotionally inciting society to attempt to disarm America. The facts, however, do not support leftism’s hypothesis.
President Joe Biden, as well as the Democratic Party guru-in-chief, Barack Obama, immediately went on the offensive. Biden, in a typically partisan, highly theatrical speech, said, “It’s time to turn this pain into action for every parent, for every citizen of this country.” The president added, “It’s time for those who obstruct or delay or block common-sense gun laws – we need to let you know that we will not forget.” Essentially, Biden is blaming the Second Amendment, guns, and Republicans for the actions of a deranged social outcast.

The Biden policy changes which have been promulgated constitute a de facto, financial aid package for Castroism.
President Joe Biden has begun his mission to save Cuban communism. This political course, announced during the 2020 presidential campaign, has ceased to be stealth. The ethical and methodological inconsistencies that permeate the current administration’s decisions, reveal a foreign policy program that has no moral compass. Regarding Ukraine, despite a slow and wobbling beginning, the U.S. has managed to help the European country enough to remain free and sovereign from Russian aggression. This is applaudable. Why are sanctions acceptable for a foe like the Putin regime, yet not for the Castro dictatorship? Why a double standard with Cuba?
Brazenly, Biden claims that these measures will “focus first and foremost on support for the Cuban people, including their human rights and their political and economic well-being.” This is nonsense. The current U.S. administration confuses the people of Cuba with the Marxist-Leninist regime in power. Biden has turned his back on the cause of Cuban freedom and betrayed fundamental American values of democratic solidarity.

The FSP dictatorial paradigm haunts Colombia. Petro is Havana’s man in the 2022 presidential election.
Colombia will soon have presidential elections. Its stable democracy, despite nearly 62 non-consecutive years of political violence instigated primarily by left-wing subversive groups (1948-1958, 1964-2016), may be facing its biggest threat. Gustavo Petro, the front-runner in Colombia’s presidential race, is a wholly fabricated product of Castro-Communism. Petro is socialism’s Manchurian candidate.
Communism’s appetite in the Americas goes back to the founding of the Soviet Union. In Colombia, the most successful Marxist operation was the Bogotazo. At the 9th Pan-American Conference held on April 9, 1948, there was international communism’s first aggressive attempt of assaulting power in the South American country. The assassination of presidential candidate Jorge Eliécer Gaitán triggered massive riots that sprung from Soviet-contrived disinformation. Among those present on that “Black Friday” were Cuban communists Fidel Castro and Rafael del Pino.
