For extraordinary courage and conspicuous heroism above and beyond the call of duty while in charge of a repair party during an attack on the U.S.S. Neosho by enemy Japanese aerial forces on 7 May 1942. Lacking assistance because of injuries to the other members of his repair party and severely wounded himself, Peterson, with no concern for his own life, closed the bulkhead stop valves and in so doing received additional burns which resulted in his death. His spirit of self-sacrifice and loyalty, characteristic of a fine seaman, was in keeping with the highest traditions of the U.S. Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life in the service of his country.[2]
Harvey Bernard Milk was an American politician and the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in California, as a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. Milk was born and raised in New York.
Harvey Milk was a pioneering figure in the LGBTQ+ rights movement. He was the first openly gay man elected to public office in California, serving on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. Milk’s activism focused on achieving legal protections for LGBTQ+ individuals, advocating for their rights in housing, employment, and other areas. He also worked to foster a sense of community and pride among LGBTQ+ people, encouraging them to come out and participate in political and social life.
Not trying to minimize Milk’s contribution to the gay community in the United States; I think naming a building after Milk or honoring his sacrifice to the gay community by erecting a statue in his honor would be more appropriate. But naming a warship in his honor should be reserved for someone who has exceptionally served their military, like Peterson by giving their life in the line of duty.
How are the rest of the Swabbies onboard the ship supposed to feel serving on a ship named ater a gay person???
Why is he doing what he’s doing and could care less about previous precedence set on Capitol Hill?
He doesn’t owe any buddy anything – he is not part of the jet set, corrupted politicians circle, he does not kiss anybody’s ass and doesn’t want his ass kissed – most of all he cannot be bought.
There has never been anyone in American politics or any other industry who has taken the beating or abuse he has but kept bouncing back like the battery-operated bunny. He never seems to run out of gas.
Does he have a lot of faults or shortcomings?? Absolutely, but the $64,000.00 question is, all we should care about are the accomplishments he has made, and admire him for being one of the most patriotic presidents ever to sit in the big chair. America First!!
We have to acknowledge that in the very few months he’s been in office, he has accomplished more then the thieves who came before him.
People are throwing stones and rolling boulders at PDT, but one thing they failed to understand or want to admit, the vast majority of the decisions he is making are to try and rectify and correct the deplorable condition that Backdoor Joe created when he was in office. They are even too monumental and extensive to categorize.
Just the open borders, feasco BDJ created to garner votes (he fell on his face on that one as well), will take years to clean up, if that is even possible. Hands down, Backdoor Joe IS the most corrupt, dishonest, despicable president in the history of the United States. Best of all, so far, he seems to be walking away clean.
Folks, let us all rally around Trump and support his efforts to MAGA.
The View’ co-host Joy Behar wants Trump’s Iran strikes ‘to have been successful’
Despite slamming his rhetoric, Behar wants Trump to succeed in neutralizing Iranian nuclear threat
As much as it kills this old nasty broad, she can not deny the facts and success of bombing Iran.
Although I have no respect for any of the VIEW cast, we have to give credit where it is due.
It is about time the View members take off their blindfolds, take out the earplugs, and acknowledge the good PDT is doing for the USA. The facts are staring them right in the face.
Possibly it is not too late for them to come to their senses. Or maybe not.
Whether or not a person is a fan of PDT, we can not deny the accomplishments he has made since in office.
The View and the rest of the dissidents (anti-Trump) in this country should focus their attention and energy on all of the theft and the laws that were broken by Backdoor Joie, his family and his crew. The numbers are staggering.
The only advice I can give the criminals, they better find a good place to hide, the Sheriff and his posse are hot on their trail. Possibly, North Korea would be a good sanctuary for them.
EXCLUSIVE: Trump admin takes action after massive fraud uncovered at agency Dems tried to protect from DOGE
‘We owe it to America’s small businesses to get this right,’ said SBA
PDT and his crew have uncovered yet another band of thieves fleecing the American taxpayers. He WILL hold them accountable.
Following the uncovering of a massive bribery scandal at USAID, the Small Business Administration (SBA) is ordering a full audit of all government contracting officers who have exercised grant-awarding authority under the agency’s business development program over the last 15 years.
A DOJ press release said that Britt and Barnes “regularly funneled bribes to Watson, including cash, laptops, thousands of dollars in tickets to a suite at an NBA game, a country club wedding, downpayments on two residential mortgages, cellular phones, and jobs for relatives. The bribes were also often concealed through electronic bank transfers falsely listing Watson on payroll, incorporated shell companies, and false invoices.”
The statement said that Watson is alleged to have received bribes “valued at more than approximately $1 million as part of the scheme.”
The thieves involved in these enormous fraud cases have nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. PDT and his team of bloodhounds are hot on their trail and are taking no prisoners.
It is about time the scumbags who are stealing from the American peole are caught and brought to justice. This action is just one of the many avenues Trump is going down to clean the swamps as he promised.
I will guarantee that this action is just the tip of the icepick.
These disgruntaled MOTHERS could have a loaf of bread under each arm and still find something to bitch about.
If THE MOTHERS put as much effort into cleaning up this country (we certainly need a complete scrubbing) instead of trying to put a perverbial rope around Trump’s neck, this world and country would be much better off.
If he is not willing to take the word of his intelligence staff, what is the purpose of having them??
In critical situations like this , it is no time to be bullheaded.
I hope that this does not open a can of words with Gabby. She is too much of an asset to the country to be eliminated because she disagrees with Trump, a move he is notorious for.
This is an extremely delicate situation that requires a monumental amount of forethought and should not be taken lightly.
Military action such as this may be for all the marbles. Someway, somehow, if not executed with the utmost consideratins it may lead to WW III.
We can bet that Charlie Chan and Putin are sitting back, licking their chops, waiting for an opportunity to take advantage of any miscalculation.
I hope that all the other superpowers (England, Japan, Germany, and the rest) are onboard and share in the responsibility and aftermath, if any. Far too often, the USA is the only country that carries the ball and the entire responsibility, financially and physically, most of the time comes out the loser. Take a good look at our track record. It is pathetic. We do not need any more WARS FOR PROFIT. Leave Dick Chaney and GWB off of the advisory committee.
I hope that PDT exercises the utmost discretion before making a decision and leaves his giant ego in the closet. I am glad the decision is not TOTALLY up to him.
I don’t have a problem with the USA getting financially involved, but I don’t see any benefit or advantage in getting militarily involved unless we are accompanied by an equal amount of involvement by our allies.
So many people aroud the world get up tight, feel insulted or a little uneasy by using the word fuck. That does not seem to be the case with the good people from New Zealand. They use that pearl of a word in everyday conversation, and no one is offended. It is part of their daily conversation
The word fuck to them is A universe word.
It can be used in a general Conversation.
It can be used as a noun, a pronoun, or verb, an Adjective, or an adverb.
How the fuck you doing today.
How’s your fucking wife and kids.
How was that fucking vacation you were on.
Where the fuck are you going.
And so on, and so on, and so on. In the words of one of the finest actors ever to grace the silver screen Yul Brenner, et ceret et cetera et cetera.
Loosen up people, start using the word fuck as part of your everyday conversation. If that is not your cup of tea, do not be offended by people who do not share your sensitivities
If it wasn’t for the physical aspect of the word fuck, none of us would be walking the face of the earth.
It has to be the most universal word in the Webster.
I think the rest of the world should get into step with the blokes down under.
I’ve been started using the word fuck as soon as I popped out of that little warm place I was hibernating for 8 months.
Years ago, my wife used to get upset with me for using the word fuck. Now she doesn’t even pay attention to me.
I told her Eddie Murphy is paid twenty million dollars a movie and every other word he uses his fuck. I use it pro bono.
MY NEPHEW
That’s what I’m talking about. Let us put a little humor in our lives. Let your hair down, it is therapeutic.
I don’t know what the fuck is a matter, why people are so sensitive?
The only fucking thing you’re doing by being so uptight is showing what a WORD SCROOGE you are.
People who don’t agree with me, that is your perogative.
I say tally ho to the people in New Zealand, keep your dialogue going.
