The Heroic Saga of the CSS Alabama, CSS Florida, and CSS Shenandoah
Confederate Navy Captain James D. Bulloch, the Confederate government agent who coordinated and supervised the building and launching of the Confederate cruisers Alabama, Florida, and Shenandoah in Liverpool is not a household name among Civil War buffs, but his accomplishments in building a formidable Confederate fleet of commerce raiders in England must be ranked among the most remarkable achievements for the Southern cause.

CIA-Related Agency for Color Revolutions and Regime Changes
The US Agency for International Development (USAID) may sound like the leading edge of a generous and enlightened US foreign Policy. It may have been just that when founded by President John F. Kennedy in 1961. It’s original goal was to counter the influence of the Soviet Union during the Cold War and advance US foreign policy interests through socioeconomic development. It has in the past been funded by Congress as an independent Agency under the supervision of the President, Secretary of State, and National Security Council. Over the years it has become a largely secret and independent Deepstate agency tied to aggressive State Department foreign policy closely tied to the CIA. In this regard, it has evolved into an aggressive funder of Color Revolutions and regime changes designed to maintain US control of international affairs. Color Revolutions are US or allied attempts to overthrow, intimidate, or control nations out-of-step with US foreign and economic policy and assure US military dominance and hegemony. In recent years, USAID has also funded propaganda and training programs for pushing liberal gender ideology and Marxist DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusiveness) ideology. The fiscal year 2025 Congressional budget for USAID is about $40 billion but has been subject only to limited Congressional control.

An Insane Interpretation of an Invalid Amendment
Following the great tragedy of the “Civil War” and the assassination of President Lincoln in April of 1865, national leadership was largely in the hands of a Congress dominated by the “Radical Republicans.” This powerful faction of the Republican majority undermined the new President, Andrew Johnson, at every opportunity, and had little regard for the Supreme Court. They considered the Constitution to be an inconvenience and the Supreme Court to be an annoyance to the will of the people accomplished by Congress. States Rights, having been defeated by the coercion of bayonets, was no longer an effective check on federal power.

Deep State Propaganda versus Truth
President Donald Trump held an impromptu press conference in the Oval Office after the Inauguration ceremonies on January 20. On a press question about Ukraine, he claimed the Ukrainians had lost 700,000 dead, and the Russians had lost over a million dead. The Ukrainian estimate may be fairly accurate, but the Russian estimate was preposterous to anyone who has followed the detail of the Ukraine War and is not a propaganda dupe of the Ukrainian government, the Biden Administration, Deep State, or the captive mainstream media. Who fed Trump this Deep State bunk and why, when he needs and the nation needs hard truth?

Selected Quotes for Understanding the Civil War
Selected Quotes from Confederate President Jefferson Davis
I owe the title of this essay to my mentor, Kenneth Bachand (1931-2021), who was a teacher of both English and history, writer, author, and avid researcher of Civil War history. He was my mentor during my blessed decade in Hendersonville, North Carolina. He was a graduate of Stetson University and taught in the Florida school system for 25 years. Nearly blind in later life, he still managed by modern devices to research, write, and edit. Following the death of his beloved wife, Mary Marguerite Bachand, he moved nearer his two daughters and nine grandchildren near Columbia, South Carolina.

He holds a BS degree from the University of Georgia and an MBA from Stanford University.
