Most People Missed National Medal Of Honor Day
The Medal Of Honor is the highest and the most prestigious decoration for valor presented
to members of our armed forces.
But most people are unaware of National Medal Of Honor (MoH) Day.
Congress created National Medal Of Honor Day on Nov. 15, 1990, via Public Law 101-564.
The date of March 25 each year was chosen because the first medals were presented on
this day in 1863 to six soldiers of Andrew's Raiders who participated in the Great Locomotive
Chase.
President Trump became the first president to honor this day at the White House.
In a meeting in the Roosevelt Room with 25 of the 75 living MoH recipients present, he
said,
"It's a great tribute to our nation.
Each of you has risen above and beyond the call of duty in defense of our country, our
people, and our flag.
You have poured out your hearts, your sweat, and your tears like few others.
And importantly, your blood, for the United States of America.
And we thank you very much,"
The Medal of Honor
Is the highest military decoration awarded by the United States government.
It is bestowed by the United States Congress on members of the United States Armed Forces
who distinguish themselves through "conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his
or her life above and beyond the call of duty while engaged in an action against an enemy
of the United States.
Wikipedia lists 21 different conflicts in which the MoH has been awarded.
19 of them are wars, rebellions, occupations, one battle, and the USS Liberty incident.
The two remaining are "peacetime" and "unknown soldiers".
There have been a total of 3,515 recipients in all five of our military forces: U.S. Army,
Navy, Marines, Air Force, and Coast Guard.
All but one were men.
Dr. Mary Walker volunteered with the Union Army during the Civil War.
Although she received the Medal of Honor from President Andrew Johnson in November, 1865,
it was later rescinded in 1917.
However, it was restored to her by President Jimmy Carter in 1977.
And one more interesting fact: nineteen recipients have honored with the Medal of Honor – twice.
Two excellent resources for information about the Medal of Honor are the Congressional Medal
of Honor Society and, of course, Wikipedia.
Because the Medal of Honor is held in such high esteem, Every member of the military,
regardless of rank, will salute any known recipient.
In other words, this means a general will indeed salute a private.Melania Walks In Room
During WH Event And Is Horrified To See Who's Smirking At Her In Crowd
The President and First Lady hosted a beautiful, bipartisan event at the White House earlier
this week.
For all the bad press that the couple has received over their time in the public's
eye, one thing is certain; you couldn't find a man that's more comfortable being
the most important, or a woman that's more confident being the most beautiful person
in the room than this couple.
The goal of this event was to bring the two parties together and help ease the tension
between lawmakers.
To this end, not only the politicians themselves, but their spouses were invited to the event.
Melania made an impressive figure in her $2,390 Whistler stretch-crepe dress designed by Roland
Mouret.
Unfortunately, not all of the participants in the event were excited about reaching across
the isle and making friends with their political enemies.
This was the case with House Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
The angry and slighted Democratic Party leader was none too happy to see the first couple
at their event, and his face told that story.
Schumer has been attempting to undermine Trump from the beginning.
Most recently, he's been calling for punishment for Rep. Nunes over his going straight to
the president about the wiretap information he received.
It's mind boggling how someone could think that they have a good excuse to actually keep
information from the President.
President Trump announced that he wants to work with the Democrats to find a solution
to their differences on the health care deal, even in light of the deal's recent failure.
He also showed how pleased he was that both Republicans and Democrats had decided to attend
the event.
Thankfully President Trump is more worried about taking steps forward for the country
than he is about the snarky faces that Democrats think they can make at him while he speaks.
It would be nice if the politicians that he serves with gave him the respect that he both
earned and deserves, but I don't expect that their rudeness will keep him from doing
his job to the best of his ability.

That Voted For Trump' Then We Learn DISGUSTING Truth!
When ICE showed up to Robert Espino's door in DeSoto, Texas to arrest his father, he
immediately began recording the takedown so he could use it against authorities later.
He's heard in the live footage shouting at the alleged atrocity that was happening
in his home, but also captured something else in the process that he didn't realize until
it was too late.
The issue of deportation of illegals has the country divided in a big way.
While illegals obviously don't deserve to stay just based on their ability to efficiently
break the law, the compassion inside us wants to say that there need to be exceptions for
families and those that have proved they can contribute.
Many in the immigrant community are up in arms about the crack down on illegals and
the deportation that is beginning to happen.
However, the video below is a good example of how things aren't always what they seem.
The man who posted this video is obviously crushed that two of his family members are
being arrested by ICE and sent back to their country of origin.
It's unclear if he's in denial about their past, or if he's just outright lying to
his audience, but there are some things that you need to know about his "law abiding"
family.
His Facebook post reads:
"My brother and brother in law were cuffed and taken away from their families they are
not drug dealers, rapist, thieves, not even a traffic ticket," he wrote in the description
of the video.
"They leave behind wives, sons and daughters.
This what Donald J. Trump supporters wanted, to see families torn apart because of where
you're born."
WARNING: Strong Language
Unfortunately for the pretty PR package that the overly zealous brother/camera man is putting
out there is a little deceptive.
These guys may not have traffic tickets, but that's probably only because you don't
wanna get pulled over when you've got warrants.
"On Feb. 29, 2000, a Denton County (Texas) Criminal Court convicted Diaz Escobedo of
Aggravated Sexual Assault of a Child for which he received a sentence of eight years deferred
adjudication.
On March 22, 2017, ICE officers determined that Diaz Escobedo had an outstanding arrest
warrant for a probation violation related to this conviction.
Consequently, Diaz Escobedo was transferred to the Denton County Jail.
ICE placed an immigration detainer on him so that he will be transferred to ICE custody
following disposition of his criminal charges," the press release read.
"Marquez Linares was deported Dec. 16, 2007.
He illegally re-entered the United States sometime after being deported, which is a
felony.
Marquez Linares is currently in ICE custody pending his removal to Mexico," it added.
I'm sure the goal was to garner support for the cause of illegals everywhere, but
this ignorant display of deception and foul language has done nothing but damage his cause.
This is a person who's trying to turn the arrest of a terrible sex offender into a political
statement.
The only statement that local law enforcement is trying to make is that sex offenders will
be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
If in this case, the fullest extent of the law means that we remove him so he has no
access to harm our citizens then so be it.

Look What 13 Defiant States Just Banded Together To Do That's NEVER Been Done Before!
President Trump and his cabinet have had no end of grief on every single measure they
try to enact.
It's almost as if people in America don't expect presidents to actually follow through
on their campaign promises.
Such has been the case with the travel ban that the President deemed needful for national
security.
Even though it's completely within his rights to order such a ban (as presidents before
him have done) every liberal in the country was so infuriated that the name Donald Trump
was signed to the order, that they did their best to block it.
Unfortunately, there were some judges who agreed with them and knocked down the ban
on their behalf.
Now, though, several states have decided to come out in support of the ban.
Via Red State Watcher:
Twelve state attorneys general and Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant filed the amicus brief
which claims the president's immigration order is lawful and well within his authority.
The attorneys general who joined the brief were from Texas, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas,
Florida, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota and West Virginia.
The 36-page amicus brief filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit indicates
that states do not have the authority to "restrict or set the terms of aliens' entry into the
United States for public-safety and national-security reasons."
The federal Executive Branch, pursuant to the laws of Congress, has that authority,
the brief argues.
Their support of this measure is undoubtedly about more than just national security, though
that is the most important part.
President Trump has made huge moves toward giving states back their rights.
This is something that is going to help each area regain its individuality, and its ability
to listen to the needs of the citizens in their particular jurisdiction.
This also is a nod that they know, while some laws should be taken care of by the states,
some issues, like immigration, are not theirs to decide.
The system works best if no one tries to work the system, and working the system is something
that liberals are absolutely GREAT at.
Some might even say exploiting the system with their illegal voters and judge legislators,
bypassing the rule of law seems to be a honed skill within the DNC.
However, they might be in for a big shock when they realize just how much America has
woken up to their games.
Prior to this administration taking power, there was a huge defeatist attitude within
the conservative ranks.
President Trump's Make America Great Again campaign has reminded many of what we were
and could be again.
Now individuals, cities, and states are standing up and doing their part to take back the land
of the free and home of the brave.
Move over illegals, we've got a country to take back.

Rep Michelle DuBois Who Warned Illegals of ICE Raid Just Got Horrible News From Bristol
County Sheriff!
Sanctuary cities have been a hot-button issue for the past few weeks.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions recently told reporters that federal grants would be withheld
from cities who refused to comply with federal authorities.
Now a Massachusetts sheriff is calling for the arrest of elected officials who support
sanctuary city policies.
The sheriff appeared before a House subcommittee in Washington D.C. this past Tuesday.
That won't sit well with one public official.
Bristol County Sheriff Thomas Hodgson noted during the hearing that undocumented immigration,
i.e. illegal immigration, is a serious national security crisis that needs to be handled.
He rightfully noted that sanctuary cities have become more dangerous because violent
criminal aliens know they will be protected by city officials.
Hodgson said,
"If these sanctuary cities are going to harbor and conceal criminal illegal aliens
from ICE, which is in direct violation of Title 8 of the U.S. Code, federal arrest warrants
should be issued for their elected officials."
After his comments before the House of Representatives, a member of the House had the audacity to
alert illegal immigrants where she advised them to stay out of sight for fear of ICE
raids.
Hodgson said the following in response,
"This is the most outrageous, outrageous thing of what I think, example of what is
going on across the United States.
It's undermining my job and every other law enforcement officer in the United States
to keep our communities safe, and that elected official is responsible for protecting the
welfare of the people of their communities."
The warning came from Representative Michelle DuBois.
She even posted a phone number for those needing help in escaping the grasp of ICE officials.
This past Monday evening DuBois held a meeting in her district where legal advice was provided
for undocumented immigrants.
Here is what she posted to her Facebook page.
"ICE raid in Brockton on 3/28 and 29th If you get picked up by ICE call legal services
direct line for immigration help: 774-488-5961
I got the following information from my friend in the Latin community:
"I have a message for the immigrant community of Brockton.
Please be careful on Wednesday 29.
ICE will be in Brockton on that day.
If you are undocumented don't go out on the street.
If there is a knock on the door of your house and you don't know who it is, don't open
the door.
I ask you to be careful."
What she is doing is illegal and amoral.
She is willfully allowing people to break the law and she should be ashamed of herself.
Thanks to Hodgson she could very well be arrested.
Because she endorses sanctuary city policies.
He called for public servants to be arrested and she endorsed sanctuary city policies anyway.
She should be arrested and she likely will.
