They understood what was at stake

Today is D-Day. On June 6, 1944, we and our allies landed in Normandy.



AP reports,
French President Emmanuel Macron and U.S. President Donald Trump praised the soldiers, sailors and airmen who took part in the invasion, codenamed Operation Overlord, saying it was the turning point that ended Nazi tyranny and ensured peace for Europe.

“You are the pride of our nation, you are the glory of our republic, and we thank you from the bottom of our heart,” Trump said of the warriors who took part in what he called the ultimate fight of good against evil in World War II.

“They battled not for control and domination, but for liberty, democracy and self-rule,” Trump said in a speech at the Normandy American Cemetery overlooking Omaha Beach, the bloodiest of five landing beaches.

Andrew Klavan points out that there is a reason that Make America Great Again slogan resonates among those of us who support Trump. Yesterday, President Trump read a prayer given by FDR on the occasion of the Normandy invasion. Andrew brings us that video. Andrew points out that, unlike FDR, the Democrats in more recent years have done everything they could to chase God out of the public square.

The Left is a corporate power base. YouTube has now demonetized Stephen Crowder's videos. When you get rid of this idea of life as a spiritual enterprise, what are you left with? More power, more control from the elites, who don't have to sacrifice anything, unlike those who landed amidst machine gun fire in Normandy.
When they come with guns to take your freedom away, people find the courage to fight, but when they suck slowly our freedom, today Stephen Crowder, tomorrow someone on Twitter as we get closer to the 2020 election, who is going to stand up for those individuals who are being silenced by the big tech corporations?
