I think what Herr Miller means by 'loving your country' is that there will be no more talking about slavery, or what happened to Native Americans and their culture, or the oppression of women and minorities, the involvement of the USA in supporting right-wing dictators, etc..

Yet Trump fired Waltz for his security leak and you are posting "X" feeds laughing about it too. Isn't that kinda the same thing?
You are ok with the White House firing the lady yet laughing because Trump fired Waltz.
Hummmm...

Was that Biden's intention? I suspect that was her decision, not Biden's. But nice try on the whataboutism. And your retort is not even in the ballpark of addressing my comment.

So pretty much every advance in teaching history since the 1960s is going to be thrown out. Any school systems that still have their 1950s-era US History textbooks might want to dust them off. I can't wait for our new retro public schools Social Studies curriculum that says that the Civil War wasn't really caused by slavery, that blacks were happy as slaves, and Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis are once again elevated to the status of American heroes despite fighting for slavery and secession. Good Times!
 


“…I thought that was rather clever, if you look at what's going on. They get their $5 billion a year, that is not going to be so forthcoming. Wasn't that a clever one?”
 


“… “The attacks are not random. They seem designed to intimidate those of us who serve in this critical capacity,” Jackson told a judges’ conference in Puerto Rico.

“The threats and harassment are attacks on our democracy, on our system of government. And they ultimately risk undermining our Constitution and the rule of law.”

Though she did not mention Trump by name, Jackson said she was addressing “the elephant in the room,” a clear reference to the belligerent language — and calls for impeachment — that Trump and some of his advisers have lobbed at federal judges who rule against his agenda.

Jackson urged her judicial colleagues to show “raw courage” to dispense justice without fear of the results. “I urge you to keep going, keep doing what is right for our country, and I do believe that history will vindicate your service,” the Biden appointee said.

Jackson’s unusually pointed comments received a standing ovation from the judges and lawyers in attendance.…”

Not to quibble, because VE Day is obviously important, but WWII ended for the USA when the Japanese surrendered in August 1945 …

Anyway, May 8 is Victory Day already, Victory in Europe (VE Day), but fine Victory Day it is. November 11 was Armistice Day, then Veteran’s Day and now Victory Day WWI I guess?
