Exactly 80 years ago tomorrow (Nov. 30, 1945), German submarine commander Heinz-Wilhelm Eck and two of his former subordinates on the U-852 were shot by Allies in Hamburg for killing the survivors of a ship they had sunk. Pete Hagueseth should be very worried. www.executedtoday.com/2009/11/30/1...

Who knew the president of the United States could just order the closing of air space over other countries with just the click of a phone button?

Bet those who are celebrating Trump for his use of the word now are the very same people screaming for Rahm Emmanuel to be fired from Obama’s staff back when he used it. These people are just parodies of lemmings now.
