Malmedy Massacre - What Happened? Rare Original Film (WW2 Documentary)

Battle Guide  "On 17th December 1944 Hitler’s famous ‘Last Gamble in the West’ was one day old. Leading the northernmost of his westwards thrusts through the Ardennes were the SS troops of Kampfgruppe Peiper. Blocked and slowed at every turn by determined American defenders, they exacted a horrific toll on any who fell into their hands. This is the story of just one such event during the Battle of the Bulge, which took the name of the Malmedy Massacre."

Them drones, them drones; "We are currently in the "scare them with uncertainly" phase."


What to make of all these drones -- and the U.S. response? 
"
The CNN headline read: “Drones continue to buzz over US bases. The military isn’t sure why or how to stop them.”

"That seems odd … if not unbelievable … as the U.S. military is the most advanced and lavishly funded in the world.

"Yet it appears that every government department/agency/entity is entirely clueless and pointing fingers at every other government department/agency/entity.

"The article supporting the headline noted that the drones’ “…intent could be anything from attempting to gather intelligence on the base or testing its defenses and response time, to gaining a better understanding of how the bases work …”

"If their intent is to gather intelligence on the bases and those that run them, the intelligence they gather might indicate that there is no intelligence on those bases, given the news.

"In testing their defenses, they would have discovered there is no apparent defense.

"Testing their response time would have yielded the realization that there has been no response at all, forget about time." . . .

Flying Drones Over NJ;  I will not be the one to criticize the Army if tomorrow they set up anti-aircraft batteries in New Jersey.   . . ."Republican Congressman Jeff Van Drew does not share Biden’s extreme calm, and he made it clear on Twitter: “Iran’s militarized drone carrier vanished from port between Nov. 12 and Nov. 28, right around when the drones started appearing. It’s our responsibility to at least investigate any potential connection to what is happening in New Jersey. We need answers." . . .

Biden: Commutations For Murderers, Persecutions For Normal Americans

The American Spectator  "We cannot get rid of this disgusting failure of a president, and the faceless unelected handlers who silently run the country in his name, fast enough."  
"But guided by my conscience and my experience as a public defender, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Vice President, and now President, I am more convinced than ever that we must stop the use of the death penalty at the federal level. In good conscience, I cannot stand back and let a new administration resume executions that I halted."

. . ."His “conscience” stops short of doing the most flagrantly unpopular things, though. That’s how rigid his “conscience” is.

"Where are the commutations for the Jan. 6 protesters, Joe? Contra your pals in the legacy corporate propaganda press, none of them killed anybody. Even the handful of them who were “violent offenders” on that day would have been out of jail by now in a sane country. Nobody spends four years in jail for hitting a cop apparently — not unless you followed an FBI informant into the Capitol.

"Where are the commutations for the little old ladies who sang and prayed outside of abortion clinics? Should they not also get clemency from this “man of conscience”?

"Is Biden going to commute any sentences of the dozens of people likely wrongly convicted whose cases are well known?

"Will he halt enforcement proceedings by runaway federal agencies like the SEC against ordinary Americans?

"Or is it just the murderers and rapists that he thinks he can get away with showing mercy to because they aren’t famous?

"We cannot get rid of this disgusting failure of a president, and the faceless unelected handlers who silently run the country in his name, fast enough.

"Merry Christmas to our readers. May Jan. 20 come soon." 

“Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to (foul) things up.”   

"The New York Times article goes through several paragraphs telling us how opposed Mr Biden is to capital punishment, but all that I see is a man who is opposed to capital punishment as long as it’s not a politically difficult case."

‘Tis the Season of Political Pardons    "Joe Biden just gave his son his Christmas present – a 10-year “get out of jail free” card. But apparently, he’s still caught up in spirit of giving. Politico reports that Joe is considering a raft of pardons for a rogue’s gallery of federal miscreants. It seems our “nobody is above the law” chief executive realizes that those who have undermined our Constitution in service to the Democrat party may need a bit of legal protection from the incoming Trump administration.

"The list of pardon candidates includes such “public servants” as:

  • Anthony Fauci, who funded the research that likely created a lethal pandemic, and then lied about the science to cancel our civil liberties in an election year.
  • Adam Schiff, who would go into anaphylactic shock if he ever told the truth. He shared confidential information and complete lies with the press to trigger a special counsel investigation – which drove the country into conflict for three years, and found nothing.
  • Liz Cheney – who placed her hatred above patriotism and her oath of office. She used her position on the January 6 committee to hide exculpatory evidence and build an anti-Trump narrative that was used to criminally prosecute supporters of MAGA.
  • A list of DoJ lawfare practitioners too long to list. They have used their positions as sworn defenders of the Constitution to undermine the civil rights of concerned parents, pro-life protesters, limited government advocates, and political opponents.

"A move by Joe Biden to pardon such bad actors would be highly destructive to the rule of law in general, and the political fortunes of the Democrat party in particular. Not that the latter troubles me." . . .

Proof that the Biden DOJ is not only corrupt but is pure evil   . . ." Biden is a thug who has largely pardoned thugs. Will the country ever recover from the damage done by the Biden administration?  Only time will tell.  Will our fully-Marxist left ever realize how much they have undermined every principle on which America was founded?  They will continue to try to block every aspect of Trump’s agenda they can out of spite.  Our left are a nasty bunch, a cabal of angry bullies.  Biden’s mass pardons, clemencies, and commutations will forever be a blot on his already horrendous legacy.  For more information on who has received pardons, see the links below.   Meet the Monsters” released by Joe;" . . .More here...
