Not gonna celebrate that. The President of the United States is Donald J. Trump. The Supreme Court is illegitimate. The US Congress is illegitimate. The federal Judiciary is illegitimate. Several state Governors are treasonous criminals. Many state judges are treasonous criminals. Many office holders and non-office holders are treasonous criminals. There are American citizens being held and persecuted as political prisoners for merely entering a building that THEY OWN! Seeking redress of grievances, a process guaranteed in our Constitution.
So no, the US flag does not fly at my home this year. There are no patriotic decorations. There are no fireworks. We will have a simple cookout, just family. We will remember the Founders and those who sacrificed it all to give us the wonderful nation we failed to defend. They are ashamed of us, and they should be.
We will remember the battle at Gettysburg these three days leading up to the 4th. I will remember the subject of my first book, Major A. G. Happer from Washington County, PA who was there, and as I write these words at this very time was holding the line with his regiment the 11th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry on Cemetery Hill, withstanding Confederate artillery as Longstreet's assault is beginning to advance into Sherfy's Peach Orchard about this time on July 2nd 1863. Those men. They thought enough of their country to advance into the meat grinder, and those defending stood their ground as long as they could, until further bloodshed was pointless. What would they think of us today?

Should take an hour, not weeks. Has ANYONE been verified on here? If so, how long did it take? Does anyone really maintain this platform? If I wanted a facebook style attitude, I'd have remained over there.

The Dep. Leader, Jeff Bummer contacted me & asked if I would participate in their effort to bring recognition to Major Happer. Recognition I might add that the Major never sought for himself.
Their main objective was a state historical marker to be installed in front of the Major's former home.
The second objective was to have a yearly festival type event to celebrate the Major's incredible service to the entire County. We met with the Mayor & City Council & they were very supportive.
Long story short, it didn't quite work out as planned, but that is a story for another day.
My point today is to remember those students and Mr. Bunner for all their hard work. This was only the beginning. It gets Really interesting! Stay tuned.
