“Abraham Lincoln…has almost disappeared from human knowledge. I hear of him, I read of him in eulogies and biographies, but I fail to recognize the man I knew in life.” Union General Donn Piatt You have to give credit to those who fought to prevent Southern Independence. Post-war, they seized the narrative, stated they were going to “reeducate” Southerners and created a “Righteous Cause Myth” that is still believed by many. Even into the mid-1900s, Southerners fought back as best they could bu...
I woke up this morning to the news that Donald Trump had won the presidency yet again. I will be honest. Like I stated in a previous Robservation, I am not a “Trump can never do wrong” guy and there are many things about him that I do not necessarily like. Did I vote for him? Yes. There was absolutely no way I would ever vote for Harris. No Way!! If there had been a viable alternative out there, possibly. But there wasn’t. So, at one point I am happy that Trump won (actually several point...
Yes, there was a decision handed down from the Alabama Supreme Court just a few weeks ago. The occurrence was from November of 2018, so you can see how long even a civil suit might go on. The case comes from Houston County and involves fatalities stemming from a collision between an automobile and a truck. Specifically, Raymond and Florence Trigger stopped their vehicle at their mailbox which was across the road from the driveway to their home. Raymond was driving and after checking their mail...
Alabama is a one-party, ruby red Republican state. This is a given in both state and national political races – especially presidentially, as you saw earlier this week. The proof is in the pudding. With Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump’s triumphant conquest of our state on Tuesday, that makes 12 straight Presidential races in which the GOP candidate has carried our state. Trump has carried Alabama by more than 60% in the last three Presidential cycles – 2016, 2020, and now 2024....
The Fact is that Donald J, Trump is the President elect. He has the chance to be the first Republican President since George H. Bush to win the popular vote. He Finds himself in a critical position, a Republican majority in Congress although somewhat narrow, and a real opportunity to make meaningful changes for America. He has the opportunity to show the world what true leadership looks like. President Trump needs to go beyond the usual political games and work towards something much bigger....
One of the most forgotten sins of the Bible is looking back on your past. Did you know that it is actually a sin? Jesus says that He doesn't want you looking back anymore. He tells us the story of Lot, his wife, and two daughter. God was about to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah and God sent two angels of the Lord to rescue them. God only gave them one instruction. Don't look back. That was the only instruction. The life as they knew it was burning down. The Bible says that they came out but Lot’s w...
For a communist country, it was strange to have an unsanctioned gathering of a million people, but 40 years ago in Poland, the funeral of a simple parish priest brought the nation to a halt to pay their last respects. Father Jerzy Popiełuszko was not known as a great scholar or a powerful intellectual. In fact, he barely made the grades to graduate from seminary, but Popiełuszko was a man of the people, and he spoke to them in unadorned, persuasive sermons, chiseling a significant crack in P...
November 8, 2024–Have you felt the 2016 vibe these last three days? No, those flashbacks are not your PTSD acting up. The Left are collectively melting down harder than they did in 2016, and it’s even more hilarious now than it was back then. There are a number of things that are virtually identical, of course—the celebrities threatening to leave the country, for instance—but the Left turned it up to eleven and twisted off the knob this time around. Eight years ago we laughed as the special...
November 6, 2024–It's 12:37 AM on election night, and Pennsylvania has just been called for President Trump. We're waiting for him to speak, and I'm flipping through channels watching what the different networks are saying about the election. MSNBC is still trying to hold out hope for a Harris victory, and it could still break that way, but...they also have a graphic up on their secondary YouTube channel showing President Trump winning the popular vote 65 million to 60 million. There aren't a...
November 11, 2024–I have seen how the world ends. Or, at least the part where sentient AI either enslaves or slaughters us. Saturday I was giving myself a well-deserved break from politics and scrolling through YouTube for something fun to watch when I happened across a video posted by Brainfrog about a week ago. The title caught my eye: “I told SKYRIM AI they’re in a Simulation. Then Offered an Escape!” Briefly, the YouTuber took an NPC (non-player character) from Skyrim (a fantasy game) t...
November 11, 2024–“How will President Trump fix FEMA?” is the question people are asking right now. It’s the wrong question. The question they should be asking is “why not eliminate FEMA and be done?” Why should we bother fixing something that’s so obviously corrupt, incompetent and contrary to its stated purpose? Why not add FEMA to the kill list with the Department of Education, and about a dozen others I can think of right off the top of my head. Yes, that list gets longer when my gout flares...
November 12, 2024 - The story of George Washington Carver, an inductee into the National Inventors Hall of Fame, is inextricably linked with Alabama. As being one of the most prominent African-American scientists of the early 20th Century, he was invited by Booker T. Washington to be the head of the Agriculture Department of Tuskegee University in 1896. And George Washington Carver taught at Tuskegee University in Alabama for forty-seven years. Known for his innovations in crop rotation and...
November 12, 2024–Just when I think the Loonies on the Left can’t get any more unhinged, they go and surprise me. We’ve seen a plethora of liberals—mostly women, but a few putative males—posting their mental breakdowns on social media for the last week. It’s been completely predictable, and the “déjà vu all over again vibe” has been the same toxic stew of rage, angst, disbelief and tearful virtual-signaling we saw in 2016, turned up to 11 and the knob twisted off. I’d never heard of the 4B mov...
November 13, 2024 - Let me state the obvious: Mike Johnson has done a phenomenal job as Speaker of the House. Anyone who says otherwise is either gravely misinformed or refuses to see the truth. When he took the gavel, the media and the Democrat leadership were lined up, ready to tear him down before he even had a chance to breathe. They painted him as inexperienced, a placeholder who could never lead in these turbulent times. But, boy, were they wrong. Mike Johnson stepped into the breach...
November 14, 2024 - First responders are heroes. They stand ready to answer the call in the face of danger to serve and protect our communities. Often, they are the first to arrive to the scene of an emergency, an accident, or other disaster. When we are facing our worst, they are always their best, and they serve an important role as the backbone of emergency services. In Alabama, I have no doubt that we have the best first responders in America. A big reason why first responders in Alabama...
Our 45th President, Donald J. Trump, was elected as our 47th President on November 5. He not only won, he won overwhelmingly. Under the Electoral College system, our President is elected not by popular vote, but by a system where each state casts the same number of votes as they have Representatives and Senators in Congress. We, in Alabama, have seven Congressmen and two Senators. Therefore, we have nine electoral votes. National voters and the media knew in this 2024 Presidential election, ther...
We are witnessing a significant shift in the leadership of the United States Senate, and I can confidently say that we are in great hands. John Thune, who took over as Senate Majority Leader, was the right man to lead our conservative charge at the right time. I also want to take a moment to honor both his remarkable journey and the monumental contributions of his predecessor, Mitch McConnell. First, let us remember how John Thune burst onto the national scene with that stunning upset of Tom...
You reap what you sow, and nowhere is that more apparent than in Donald Trump's new Washington, D.C. For years, the swamp has done everything in its power to tear down President Trump, his allies, and his supporters. From endless investigations to biased media attacks, they've used every trick in the book to keep their stranglehold on power. Now, they're reaping the whirlwind they themselves have stirred. This is precisely how Donald Trump is making his picks to run the people's federal governme...
Based on actual historical events, "I Heard The Bells" is an excellent movie about Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's inspiration to write the poem that would become the Classic Christmas Carol, "I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day". An independent production, the very well done feature film was released in movie theaters across the USA in December of 2022, making it the first ever theatrical release of a feature film production for the "Sight & Sound" ministries. A ministry that focuses on faith...
November 18, 2024–It’s going to be a downer of an inauguration if DC is a glow-in-the-dark parking lot or radioactive swamp. That’s not likely, but with Joe Biden’s handlers pushing hard for World War III? It’s a definite possibility. Sunday, we found out that “President Biden” had authorized Ukraine to use US-made missiles to strike targets deep within Russia. This is a “major policy shift” (read: complete 180 degree turn) and would allow Zelensky’s losing military to further poke the Ru...
I love the Alabama Gazette as it's been the "Voice of Reason" for the last 25 years and the only publication, in Alabama, that has been telling anything even close to the truth lately. After experiencing the last four years I believe that just about everyone realizes that the only reason a person would actually watch the national news/media is to study how psychological manipulation works on the general public. Elected officials, especially local ones, are supposed to be a bulwark against this...
November 19, 2024 - When Senator Tommy Tuberville was elected, the Biden-Woke agenda was implemented in all government facets. He targeted the Department of Defense, which did the most harm. Coach Tuberville comes from a family with strong military ties, including his father, whose stories about his service in World War II played a significant role in shaping Tuberville's values during his formative years. As a football coach, he often emphasized the importance of sacrifice and discipline,...
Biden, Hitler, Scorched Earth, Impeachment and WWIII November 20, 2024–The Biden Regime is trying to do to us what Hitler wanted done to Germany in 1945. It was officially called the “Decree Concerning Demolitions in the Reich Territory” and was signed by Adolf Hitler on March 19th, 1945. It said, in part: “It is a mistake to think that transport and communication facilities, industrial establishments and supply depots, which have not been destroyed, or have only been temporarily put out of...
November 22, 2024–You know it’s going to be a bad day when you wake up, turn on the Keurig, and while the first cup of the day (Death Wish dark roast) is brewing you open up the iPad to see… Russia launches ICBM strike against Ukraine. On the bright side, it was only loaded with conventional warheads (or maybe even dummy rounds), so it just made a mess, maybe started a few small fires. It was only an intermediate range ballistic missile (IRBM), not an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM...
November 22, 2024 - Gore galore is the overriding aspect of "Gladiator II" which is now showing in movie theaters nationwide. A long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott's "Gladiator" which was released twenty-four years ago, "Gladiator II" makes heavy use of themes typically featured in male-oriented movies such as revenge, filling the little-known late father's shoes, and honor through fighting. While those topics can sound interesting in and of themselves, in "Gladiator II" these themes are...
