Veteran’s Day 2017

Saturday (tomorrow) is Veteran's Day.  Several weeks ago, CTP reader John Macky sent us links to his website, so I am pleased to include them here. From one of his posting at Veteran’s Day Guide:

Veterans Day is observed to honor all such war veterans who have put their lives at stake for the safety and freedom of their people. Celebrated on 11^th of November 2017, the Veterans Day is marked to celebrate war veterans who are alive; unlike Memorial Day which is observed to honor the members of the US Armed forces who have sacrificed their lives while fighting for their nation. . . .

  

Cleveland’s Veteran’s Day parade is scheduled to begin downtown at 12:30 midday on Saturday, Nov. 11 in front of City Hall, 601 Lakeside Ave. Details are here.

More Media Fail: Trump in China

Remember when President Obama arrived in Beijing and the formal staircase failed to show up on the tarmac alongside Air Force One, and he was obliged to deplane through the service door at the back?  A not so subtle snub.  When President Trump and Melania arrived in Beijing the other day, not only was the rolling staircase there (see above), Sundance reports:

President Xi Jinping rolled out the red carpet complete with marching band and joyful children for the arrival of President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

The pageantry was the highest level China presents in public display honoring any visiting head of state; and U.S. Media never carried it. 

From DC Whispers: 

Chinese officials have shown the current POTUS every courtesy, including opening up the Forbidden City to him. This act itself is of great historic importance as it makes Mr. Trump the first American president to be allowed to dine in the Forbidden City since the creation of modern China.

To get a sense of the scope of the ceremonial details and show of great respect to President Trump, go to the Conservative Treehouse blogs – for example, here - for photos and videos that most of the media are not running (e.g. USA Media Ignores Historic Prime Time Broadcast of Official Beijing Welcome For President Trump…).

Scream Helplessly At The Sky Day Reports

Suppose they hosted a Scream-a-thon and nobody showed up. Well, hardly anyone. 

Yesterday was the anti-Trump “Scream Helplessly At The Sky Day” and reports have been slow to come in. PJ Media has some "entertaining" videos and photos here. The short video from Salt Lake City is posted by @ Liberal Logic, who wrote: "This whole "scream helplessly at the sky in anniversary of the election" thing is one of the funniest things I've seen #TrumpDerangementSyndrome." Reminded me of Baby Herman in Roger Rabbit:

One Year Ago Today

Two and a half minutes of fun from the 2016 Election, via YouTube:

And earlier today, our President tweeted:

Congratulations to all of the ”DEPLORABLES” and the millions of people who gave us a MASSIVE (304-227) Electoral College landslide victory!

Scream Helplessly At The Sky Day

 Slightly updated Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” at patriotretort.com

  

It’s today! Scream Helplessly At The Sky Day!

Background on this latest anti-Trump protest temper tantrum is at Newsbusters here.

Be sure to watch the short video (30 seconds is plenty!) at the above link for “some really helpless sky screaming from Inauguration Day which all the November 8 [today’s] event participants must measure their helpless sky screams against.”

The Boston Primal Scream Fest is scheduled for 6pm. There’s another one scheduled in Philadelphia. According to Debra Heine at PJ Media, “People who are unable to attend the screamfest in Philly are encouraged to ‘scream in solidarity’ in their own backyards.”

Hope to have a few photos and short videos later on.

Yes, there WAS a Refuse Fascism protest yesterday at Public Square. Here’s some of Cleveland 19's Digital Team News report (h/t Ralph King’s FB page):

An Anti-Trump protest was held at Public Square in Downtown Cleveland on Saturday.  

Around 50 people attended the protest.

Protesters spoke for about 40 minutes before the group marched through Downtown Cleveland.

UPDATE: ZeroHedge has a round-up (""It's A Dud" - Nationwide Soros-Funded, Antifa 'Uprising' To Remove Trump From Office Fails") of protests nationwide, with quite a few photos. Click here.
