A 15 minute view and read about Code Talkers of WWII and shows a vile, racist trump.
The Native American Code Talkers of World War II and some from WWI helped America win. For their bravery and sacrifice, they got nothing until 1968 from America and America's Presidents. These drafted Native Americans helped confuse an enemy so our troops could perform their duties with less danger. They were rewarded afterward with not being given U.S. Citizenship.
Watch the 12 minute video then please read the tribute to them.
The last paragraph shows a vile trump's true lack of humanity.
The Navajo code talkers received no recognition until 1968 when their operation was declassified.[74] In 1982, the code talkers were given a Certificate of Recognition by US President Ronald Reagan, who also named August 14, 1982 as Navajo Code Talkers Day.[75][76][77][78]
On December 21, 2000, President Bill Clinton signed Public Law 106–554, 114 Statute 2763, which awarded the Congressional Gold Medal to the original 29 World War II Navajo code talkers and Silver Medals to each person who qualified as a Navajo code talker (approximately 300). In July 2001, President George W. Bush honored the code talkers by presenting the medals to four surviving original code talkers (the fifth living original code talker was unable to attend) at a ceremony held in the Capitol Rotunda in Washington, DC. Gold medals were presented to the families of the deceased 24 original code talkers.[79][80]
Journalist Patty Talahongva directed and produced a documentary, The Power of Words: Native Languages as Weapons of War, for the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian in 2006, bringing to light the story of Hopi code talkers. In 2011, Arizona established April 23, as an annual recognition day for the Hopi code talkers.[8] The Texas Medal of Valor was awarded posthumously to 18 Choctaw code talkers for their World War II service on September 17, 2007, by the Adjutant General of the State of Texas.[81]
The Code Talkers Recognition Act of 2008 (Public Law 110–420)[82] was signed into law by President George W. Bush on November 15, 2008. The Act recognized every Native American code talker who served in the United States military during WWI or WWII (except the already-awarded Navajo) with a Congressional Gold Medal. Approximately 50 tribes were recognized.[83] The act was designed to be distinct for each tribe, with silver duplicates awarded to the individual code talkers or their next-of-kin.[84] As of 2013, 33 tribes have been identified and been honored at a ceremony at Emancipation Hall at the US Capitol Visitor Center. One surviving code talker was present, Edmond Harjo.[85]
On November 27, 2017, three Navajo code talkers, joined by the President of the Navajo Nation, Russell Begaye, appeared with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office in an official White House ceremony. They were there to "pay tribute to the contributions of the young Native Americans recruited by the United States military to create top-secret coded messages used to communicate during World War II battles."[86] The executive director of the National Congress of American Indians, Jacqueline Pata, noted that Native Americans have "a very high level of participation in the military and veterans' service." A statement by a Navajo Nation Council Delegate and comments by Pata and Begaye, among others, objected to Trump's remarks during the event, including his use "once again ... [of] the word Pocahontas in a negative way towards a political adversary Elizabeth Warren who claims 'Native American heritage'."[86][87][88] The National Congress of American Indians objected to Trump's use of the name Pocahontas, a historical Native American figure, as a derogatory term.[89]
On March 17, 2025, Axios reported that at least 10 articles pertaining to Native American code talkers had disappeared from U.S. Army and Department of Defense websites. Pentagon Press Secretary John Ullyot is quoted in response: "As Secretary [Pete] Hegseth has said, DEI is dead at the Defense Department. ... We are pleased by the rapid compliance across the Department with the directive removing DEI content from all platforms
Our "choices" by law of Succession who could become President IF...
and they aren't close to the best possible replacement.
One of the items for voters to weigh is who will replace the President should something dire happen or in case of adminitrative or political necessity. The Constitution and Congress established a list of positions in order of who should be next in line to the Presidency. Until 2024, Presidents DID take into account people who, as possible successors to the Presidency, were educated, competent and experienced to continue the job. Those selections today were poorly made by Trump and his Republican cohorts.
The people Trump and Republican Congressional Politicians selected run the gamut from washed up, incompetent politicians and judges to inept, greedy billionaires and bumbling, poorly educated Right Wing TV personalities, nearly all of whom have little to no political or even educational experience to be able to make the necessary decisions to competently run the country for us.
America, this is a list of those questionable and/or unqualified Right Wing Politicians, entertainers, mostly greedy corporate billionaire shills and rejects who Trump selected, Republicans and many Democrats approved who could someday become President of the United States and have unlimited Supreme Court decided control over you and your family's lives. These are the people you DIDN'T vote for but could decide how you might live. Do you want them making decisions about you and your family's lives? Are these the people you would want running the country in the event an incompetent, greedy, insane, uncaring man was removed from or died in that office? Be careful for whom you vote. The wrong choice could cost you more than you might imagine.
If you're not familiar with some and their "quaifications", I suggest you look them up.
Things you can't do...
Tell or convince trump, miller or magats that Jesus wasn't white.
Also, you can't get into the driver seat of an American car with your left leg first!
America today must feel like the country after the Civil War.
The Reds and klan types pissed they lost and vowed revenge.
The blue carpet baggers (today's billionaires) worsening the problem.
Seems history repeats...but with help from those who wish it to.
It is to laugh - What's in a name? - A subtle or funny meaning?
These are all "supposed" to be actual names of people that can be reinterpreted or mixed up to give a "cute" meaning to the actual name.
Some of them may be a little tricky such as Mona being short for Monica.
The first six need no "reinterpretation."
The rest, well...
Some may require substituting a first name with a sobriquet, moniker or nickname.
These are only a few. Some may be a little tougher.
See how many you can "rename."

To drive home the reality about fighting troops on the ground...
This 1971 Song by Eric Bogle vividly tells what the aftermath of America invading Iran or any country for that matter WILL be.
It's about the Australians coming home after an unbelievably disastrous campaign in 1915 at Gallipoli. The "allied" forces lost over 220,000 of 500,000 who were SENT to war.
So trump sends our children to war. They won't all make it unscathed...and being dead may be better for many. And if yours is ok, that's great, but this is someone else's reality...just not the reality of those who decide for you or your children. Remember that before it's too late.
Try to watch this and imagine those coming back are your sons, daughters, relative, friends or even a father.
And we're doing this for absolutely no fucking reason other than to make rich people already richer and power hungry people satisfied.
This is what the Republican Politicians in America can stop...but won't. They don't care about you or yours so long as they get what they want.
