Re: About Those Trump and Harris National Security Endorsements

“I served adjacent to some of the most senior military officers who have signed on to these endorsement lists and have known many of them over the course of my career. The distinction between them is clear. Harris has picked up a lot of folks who got sucked into the Beltway bureaucracy and have never recovered. Trump has picked up those who think outside the Beltway, those who are still imbued with patriotism.” —California

“Excellent summation. My oath as a Navy officer required me to ‘support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.’ Look at the Democrat Party’s record over the last four years. How could anyone describe them as anything BUT domestic enemies to our constitutional order? Kamala Harris must not be allowed her own term to complete the destruction of our nation.” —Georgia

“I don’t know what Harris is paying Stanley McChrystal and others for those endorsement ads, though I suspect he hopes to get paid with an appointment as secretary of defense. The hatred for Trump drives a lot of what Patriot Post calls Trump Derangement Syndrome, and lifelong bureaucrats, including those at the Pentagon, are not immune. I saw plenty of it when I was there.” —New York

“Our country has declined faster than Biden’s cognitive abilities since Trump left office. We can withstand hurricanes and floods. We can’t survive another four years of Kamala’s failed policies!” —New Hampshire

“Once again, a clear summary distinguishing the difference in who is endorsing and why. These leftists are advancing this Trojan horse to the gate.” —Illinois

Re: Facebook’s Latest Ode to ‘Joy’

The Patriot Post, soon to be banned in California! You know you are doing right when the clowns that run social media are upset. Keep it up, Patriot Post — maybe you’ll cause some young and foolish heads to explode in the land of fruits and nuts. Oops. Bet I can’t say ‘explode’ anymore. Sorry, young ‘uns, if I hurt your precious feelings.” —New Jersey

“Zuckerberg’s indication of apolitical changing of heart by 'turning over a new leaf’ may never come. Old Zuck has the power and money to do whatever he wants, so why would he do something he does not want to do?” —North Carolina

Re: FEMA Head: It’s ‘Dangerous’ to Criticize Us

“So we can’t criticize these people because it will ‘demoralize’ them… Have they ever given this kind of thinking to our troops in the field, or the men and women that enforce our laws and protect our homes? Do they consider the effect of their own rhetoric about a former president ‘destroying’ this country? Hey, FEMA, suck it up. You made your bed, now sleep in it.” —Texas

Re: The Illegal Immigration Hurricane

“That they can spend billions on supporting a corrupt government and its war half a world away and then also spend billions on supporting millions of the invading hordes to our nation instead of saving that taxpayer money for such tragedies as the recent hurricanes is despicable!” —Missouri

“Fox News showed a quick report that the government response was to allocate $100,000,000 to rebuild I-40 in Tennessee and North Carolina while at the same time giving Beirut $157,000,000 to rebuild. Why pay for people who hide terrorists and attack Israel?” —Arkansas

“The devastation in our country is enough to make one weep. And to add truth to sorrow, I’m sure the people in these areas are not thinking about getting to vote. However, it is a real concern that thousands of votes will never be cast and the Democrats win.” —Virginia

Re: Vance Cleans Walz’s Clock

“The RNC and the people who prepped Vance for the debate just continue to amaze me (not in a good way). To the moderator’s persistent question — Will you separate children who were born here to illegal aliens? — the sensible response ought to go like this: ‘That would be totally up to the parents of said children. If the parents are here illegally, don’t they have to be prepared for deportation possibilities? It’s really not our decision. What would you do? Would you not leave it up to the parents? Separation should be the parents’ call, not the administration’s.‘ Vance had no good retort and could only try to change the subject. Sad.” —Missouri

Re: You Go, Girls!

“What is it going to take for a vast number of biological females to sue the NCAA for violating the clear intentions of Title IX to make women’s sports participation fair to women? Possible solution: Elect enough members of Congress and a president to pass an amendment to Title IX defining 'women’ as those with XX genes.” —Florida

Re: Bogus Trans Study Backs Bogus Trans Science

“NO ONE should trust ‘research’ that won’t allow the public full access to ALL of the info from start to finish. That is NOT ‘research.’ That is NOT science! Our military and our State Department should be the only entities allowed to keep secrets, and then ONLY for information that bears directly on the operation of their legal, chartered remit and the safety of our nation. Anything else is simply unreliable and, these days, likely to be self-serving BS!” —Pennsylvania

Re: Friday Short Cuts

“Peace results from the credible threat of use of overwhelming force, not from empty words around glossy tables.” —Ben Shapiro

“Yet another reason to elect Trump. You don’t pacify your enemies; you let them know, in no uncertain terms, ‘You step out of line, and you will pay a heavy price.’” —Illinois
