Historical events, like people, have a life story. They are conceived, come into a life of their own, and are either rejected by events or become part of what is called the future. The Civil War of 1861, fought over what the US was to be, became visible in the Compromise of 1850 before assuming its final shape. The issues, the matters about what it was to be, were developing for a decade before the first shot was fired. Like people, great events often have more than one name because they involve diverse issues and multiple origin stories. The Civil War for example is also called the War

We won't have uniformed troops fighting set battles in the field, that's for sure. This go-around will be much different.

The next civil war will be fought in the electronic medium. News media, financial system, social media, supply chain, communication censoring, and space.

We already have hundreds of thousands of military aged men who infiltrated our country illegally waiting to create Havoc. It will definitely be different and bloodier.

Personally, I would hope that everyone who believes America is evil, would return to the lands from where their ancestors came. That way, everyone could be happy.

"Civil War?" No, not in the 1861-1865 sense. Bloodshed in America on a massive scale? Highly likely, the way things are going. FTA: "It will resolve whether America will survive as a distinct cultural entity or if it is to become a non-special part of a future Global World," As the Book of Revelation tells us, a one-world global government is coming, whether we like it or not. It will thankfully be short-lived. We win, big time, at the end. Make sure that you are part of the "we."

Civil war is defined as 2 groups fighting to control one government. That has not happened in America. We had our own government when we fought the yankee invaders.

I’ll offer up this ironically prescient observation from eco-nut job author Edward Abbey: “There never was a good war or a bad revolution.” Because the worst thing we do is tolerate evil in our midst. MAGA Vet.

#7 is correct. The South seceded and formed their own government Right or wrong, it simply wanted to be left alone. Slavery was indeed a consideration but the North went to war mainly for financial reasons...they would lose the tariffs and the warm water ports. In 1861, we were coming out of the Little Ice Age. Wooden ships of the day couldn't handle the ice in the northern ports during the winter months and there would go the import/export trade. Lincoln had the northern businessmen screaming in one ear and the abolitionists in the other. The same would happen today. The US Government will not let the red states leave.

De Niro Finds Out There Are Consequences

The Biden campaign showing up at the Trump trial last week, right before the case was handed off to the jury, raised an outcry about how they were now confirming the political nature of the trial. They took the norms, tossed them to the ground, and stomped all over them with their actions. And they might have interfered in Donald Trump's ability to get a fair trial in the process. But one of the more ridiculous aspects of their incredibly bad move was bringing along actor Robert De Niro to rant and lose his mind. De Niro even said he was going to be involved

The charges against 10-time PGA Tour winner Scottie Scheffler were dismissed on Wednesday, nearly two weeks after he was arrested just before the second round of the PGA Championship in Kentucky. Jefferson County Attorney Mike O’Connell addressed the court and filed a motion to have all charges against the two-time major winner dismissed after finding in the prosecutor’s investigation that the evidence corroborated his claim that it was all a "misunderstanding." Scheffler, 27, was facing four charges including felony assault over injuries a Louisville Metro Police Department officer sustained during the encounter on May 17.

California could be a much nicer place to live if some of the progressives who run the place would stop trying their best to make everything more expensive. California has had blackouts and despite this came close to shutting down its last nuclear reactor. In 2022, Gov. Newsom finally had second thoughts on that after the Biden administration offered a boatload of money to reverse course and keep the last reactor running. But despite moments of lucidity, the state and the governor seem determined to set the state's next energy crisis in motion. Last year the state passed a bill called SBX1-2 which was brandished by

Lola is the title of a song released by The Kinks in 1970. The song chronicles the romantic misadventures between a young man and a transgendered woman named Lola who, "walked like a woman but talked like a man.” Lola may provide a surprise in the bedroom or in a London nightclub, inspiration for the song, but such surprises are most unwelcome, and unfair, on the athletic field. Such sports stories have become all too common, representative of the new normal of our gender-confused culture where athletic organizations, high schools, and colleges don’t seem able to distinguish between boys and girls or men and women.

Donald Trump’s resilience in the polls as he endures the bogus trial in Manhattan has befuddled the political left. "Why isn't Trump's trial hurting him?” leftists ask. They can’t understand it because they’re so blinded by their hatred for Trump that they can’t see that his legal troubles don't stem from a fair justice system but a biased system motivated by politics. The polls prove it as they show that the public believes the criminal charges are politically motivated. The Biden campaign is panicking about the situation and decided to revise its strategy of largely ignoring the trial to sending actor Robert DeNiro to the Manhattan courthouse to troll Trump.

The same day the Biden administration and European Union offered their condolences over the death of Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi, the "Butcher of Tehran," the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, sought the arrest of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli war council members over imaginary war crimes. The first question we need to ask is: Karim Khan and what army? It's not worth taking a deep dive into the intricacies of law and war, because Hamas does not recognize any moral or legal restrictions on warfare and the ICC has no real jurisdiction over anyone, anyway. Khan says, "Nobody is above the law."
