Today, as we mark the Army’s 250th birthday, we pause to honor the courage, sacrifice, and unyielding commitment of the soldiers who have served under its colors for two and a half centuries. From the fields of Lexington and Concord to the beaches of Normandy, from the jungles of Vietnam to the deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan, the Army has stood as a bulwark against tyranny and a protector of the freedoms we hold dear.
For 250 years, our soldiers have answered the call, not for glory or personal gain, but because they believed in something greater than themselves: the idea of America. That idea rooted in liberty, justice, and the God-given dignity of every individual has been defended by the blood, sweat, and tears of generations of soldiers who swore an oath to uphold it.
The Army’s story is one of ordinary men and women doing extraordinary things. It is the farmer-turned-soldier at Valley Forge, enduring bitter cold to keep the dream of independence alive. It is the Buffalo Soldier, riding into history with courage in the face of adversity. It is the paratrooper leaping into the darkness over Sainte-Mère-Église, the tanker rolling through the Fulda Gap, and the infantryman patrolling the mountains of Kandahar. Each chapter of the Army’s 250-year history is written by soldiers who prioritized duty over comfort, honor over expediency, and country over self.
As a soldier who had the privilege of serving in this great institution, I know firsthand the weight of the uniform and the strength it demands. The Army is far more than a mere fighting force; it is a sacred brotherhood and sisterhood, united by the timeless values of loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity, and unwavering personal courage. These are not mere words etched into a creed; they are the code by which soldiers live and, when necessary, die. In the last 250 years, more than one million soldiers have given their lives, their names eternally honored in the heart of a thankful nation.
Today, as we celebrate this milestone, we must also look to the future. The challenges of the 21st century whether from adversaries abroad or threats to our values at home require an Army that is as adaptable as it is resolute. Our soldiers must be equipped not only with the finest tools of war but with the moral clarity to defend the principles that have sustained us for 250 years.
To those who wear the uniform today, know this: you carry the legacy of giants. You stand on the shoulders of heroes who turned the tide at Gettysburg, held the line at the Chosin Reservoir, and brought hope to war-torn corners of the globe. Your mission is no less vital, and your courage no less inspiring.
To the American people, I say this: never take for granted the men and women who serve in your Army. They are your sons and daughters, your neighbors and friends, and they stand ready to defend you at a moment’s notice. Honor them not just with words but with actions to support their families, remember their sacrifices, and cherish the nation they protect.
As we commemorate the 250th birthday of the United States Army, let us rededicate ourselves to the ideals that have guided it since its founding.
Let us salute the soldiers of yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and let us pray for God’s continued blessing on this great nation and its Army.
I NEVER thought I could ever agree with Chris Cuomo but this very revealing report is why President Trump cannot ever believe the CCP will be anything but an adversary in the unrestricted war for the heart and soul of America.
President Trump and team must figure out how to achieve peace and most definitely not getting further entangled in this mess in Europe. All these pro-war, anti-Russia voices are attempting to drive America into WWIII.
What’s wrong with PEACE?
For over 33 years, I proudly served in the U.S. Army, defending our nation from threats both abroad and at home. However, nothing could have prepared me for the battle I would face in Washington, D.C.
The Deep State launched a full-scale assault against my family and me, but my commitment to our country never wavered despite their lies, betrayal, and fierce attacks on my freedom.
My memoir, “PARDON OF INNOCENCE”, will be released on June 24th. This inspiring book reveals the raw, unfiltered truth the deep state tried to silence.
Pre-order now and stand with me in preserving our nation's truth! Thank you.

This is outrageous and AG Bondi & FBI Director Patel need to deal with this as an act of domestic terrorism.
Let me tell you something straight up—President Trump’s tariffs are a bold, decisive strike for America’s soul. This isn’t just about trade; it’s about taking back what’s ours—our jobs, industries, and our pride. For too long, we’ve let the globalists and the weak-kneed elites sell us out to foreign powers who don’t give a damn about the American worker.
I’ve just reviewed a bombshell report from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General, dated March 25, 2025, and it’s a gut punch to every American who believes in sovereignty, security, and the rule of law. The title alone says it all: ICE Cannot Effectively Monitor the Location and Status of All Unaccompanied Alien Children After Federal Custody. Let that sink in. Hundreds of thousands of kids—448,000 from 2019 to 2023—crossed our border illegally, were handed off to sponsors, and now ICE, the agency tasked with enforcing our immigration laws, has no clue where many of them are. This isn’t just incompetence; it’s a betrayal of the American people.
I’ve spent my life defending this nation, and I’m here to give it to you straight: the 2025 Annual Threat Assessment from our Intelligence Community (IC) is a wake-up call. Released this month by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, it lays bare the dangers we face—both from beyond our borders and within. This isn’t just a report for policymakers; it’s a battle plan for every patriot who cares about our future. Here’s what you need to know.
