I guess we could connect dots: Italian plays American Indian; there were & are many tribes in the desert Southwest; spaghetti westerns (meant to represent the desert Southwest) were made in Italy, so there you go 🤪
And probably all of the “American Indians” over there were played by Italians too!
Jenna, thanks for your insight. It is amazing that the left doesn't even seem to love America. Everything is doom and gloom. That is unless they're promoting their own version of doom and gloom packaged as a fight for democracy.
We ought (have) to be proud of our country since it's the greatest country ever. We need to stand up and defend it against the evil that is constantly nipping at its heels (and so often takes a bite!). God bless America and God bless President Trump. 🇺🇸 🦅 🕊️
Why in God’s name do we have to keep reminding people that they are so blessed? Every single other country on the planet is but a joke when compared to the United States of America. If you think I am wrong, please exit and embark on another journey. I am staying to defend our beloved Constitution and Declaration of Independence.
The Poor Chinada is taking applications as I speak!
It seemed we lost an actor every other movie or so. But Wesley, poor sweet Wesley cured us of that fear in the fire swamp.
Well, myth busters helped too. Try as he might, Jaime just couldn't get Adam to get sucked under. Something about density - an unflattering line for Michael J Fox's father in Back to the Future as he tried to woo his mother. (Was meant to be "You are my DESTINY", but came out as an anagram of that instead.)
Tune in tomorrow for a totally random walk through TV/movie references.
Agreed. The fact that we have to spend so much time and money on elections are an indication that the government is too big and too powerful. The government that governs least governs best.
The PSAs are a brilliant way to force our mega corporate media behemoths to mention Obamacare and the Covid response fiasco. Now, we get to watch Mega Media™️ tie itself in knots trying to avoid any mentions of past administrations doing any such thing, during this latest phase of Trump outrage theater (TOT).
I say it's a worthy endeavor, just for the entertainment value alone. 🍿
For the last decade(s), Americans were "taught" to hate America. The Patriarchy of it all. White Supremacy. Racist. All the phobes and isms there are. We don't even get to choose who and how we love who and how we do.
The actual last time Americans were patriotic was when the towers were attacked.
[They] made America ugly, inside and out.
President Trump is changing that, reminding The People that America IS Beautiful, IS the Beacon on the Hill, IS in pursuit of freedom, liberty and happiness for realz, and IS worth fighting for.
Land of the Free. Home of the Brave.
If being proud of one's own country is what comes out of these 'paid for by the US Government" ads, I say make MORE!!
I Jesus name! Where the eff are you going to go! Chinada is taking names and applications. Please, take leave and let those of us who respect what we have some much needed peace.
Is that a serious question? Chinada (Canada) is allowing millions of people into the country. I would be off the scale happy if a whole lot of the insane, pink and blue haired midwits signed up for their one way ticket to Chinada.
Here's an idea that would cost next to nothing. Like the MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) campaign in the 1980s that had people coming in to schools to tell their personal stories across the country, we could have immigrants who lived in communist countries tell their stories throughout the schools across the country.
Venezuala is a great example b/c it was the 4th wealthiest country in the world in the mid 20th century and look at it now after communism.
@Liz- and yet, kids are still driving drunk and killing others. So are adults. Like the DARE program: all that taught them was HOW to use drugs. And it's still being taught in 5th grade. People won't listen if it doesn't directly involve them.
Google AI says: Since Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) was founded in 1980, annual U.S. drunk driving fatalities have been cut by more than 50%, dropping from an estimated 21,000 to 25,000 deaths per year down to roughly 11,000 to 13,000 annually in recent reporting.
IDK. There are so many other factors affecting careless driving since the 1980s. Cell phones/texting, more people are on prescription drugs, more people in general, and more people from non-western countries who can’t read road signs, etc.
But, communism kills people DEAD and that message is not heard by kids voting for socialists.
@Mary Ann- I JUST got on to say that. Since the lagalization of pot in NY, it's all we smell driving down the road. Even in a store- someone comes in and reeks of pot. I, more than once, have said out loud "Air out before you come in." They're so stoned they don't even hear it.
Great idea, Liz. I am sure, here at our small school, that would be a great speaker for a history class or Veterans Day. I am going to have to look into that.
I don't watch TV so missed the brouhaha. Weird that Dems are big mad about patriotism, but it's on brand for them to be outraged over anything he says or does. He makes trolling them look easy.
Spot-on. They just cannot apprehend how predictable they are. They *always* react, and typically they act in the same ways e.g. faux outrage, canned over-repeated and worn message points, etc.
In essence, the Knee-Jerk Party. They wear thick smartypants eyeglasses to protect against black eyes caused by sudden violent knee jerking.
They could benefit from two phrases that have helped me in recovery from alcoholism:
Democrats and media are one in the same and they complain about anything and everything Trump does. Their complaining has become so reflexive that they are easily manipulated into revealing they are communists, or hate America, or want to upend the constitution, or pack the Supreme Court, etc., etc. This is a weakness and Trump is taking advantage of it.
Americans have a short and limited attention span. If you watch all 17 of the videos, they are a good reminder of where we have been and what’s happened. It’s a good way to educate people, show people. And hopefully drum up some much needed patriotism.
Trump's "Love America" campaign counters the Democrat's "America is Bad" campaign. Whenever the Democratic propaganda machine attacks the "Love America" campaign, their hypocrisy and deceptive messaging is further exposed. Trump knows how to press their buttons. Give me more "Love America" messaging!
Has anybody heard of the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act that was quietly slipped in to a bill in 2012 and signed into law by Obama that legalized propaganda to be directed at the American public? Maybe this is Trump's way to get that steamrolled by making people on the other side so upset that they want it repealed.
If Democrats didn’t have hypocrisy, what would they have? Disingenuousness maybe? Obfuscation for sure. Prevarication certainly. The donkey party are masters of all of these, and more. I cannot wait to see how the oleaginous pretty boy Newsome and his slavering media lackeys spin his absolute failure to govern CA properly as he campaigns for president. Somehow, Trump and Republicans will be to blame.
He is 100% running, regardless of how many people view him negatively. He’s got a built in 30% vote share from the “vote blue, no matter who” crowd. Throw in “independent” AWFLs, now you’re getting somewhere. It will be amusing to see how he handles a debate with AOC though. Gotta be careful not to trash a Latina, don’t want to lose the illegal vote.
So the ads put out by the ad council, whoever they are, pushing love everyone, get your covid/flu shots etc, feel sorrow for illegals are ok...along with multi spots pushing socialism etc..and the media telling lies about anything Trump related..then you have football players etc pushing products for just about everything..along with all ads pushing mixed marriage, same sex relationships, etc...all of it needs to stop..but because our resident cia/socialist Obama said propaganda is ok and legal to be spewed out on Americans, we have more BS than we can swim thru. At least the WH ads are positive messages.
I use ROKU to watch Telly. When I watch Tampa 13 News in the AM or FOX Weather Station, ROKU ads subject me to “PLAY NOW WIN BIG BUCKS” or to watch TV shows that I don’t want with an occasional ad for a politician in Georgia or Colorado (I am in Florida on the Nature Coast-which the developers are attempting to pave over😡). Therefore I never see these PSAs. Of note though, the DemocratSlaveryParty doesn’t need the Gub’ment to advertise for them. They have MISERYNOW, ABC, CBS, etc., and the horde of ‘influencers’ on FB with their disgusting, communist, reels.
You forgot the crying Indian and litter. 1971 ... "Keep America Beautiful".
And I think that guy was actually Italian 😂. They couldn’t find an actual American Indian in the whole country?? Talk about “cultural appropriation” 🤣
I forgot about that! Back then they didn’t care so much as long as the actor looked the part. 😂🙄
I guess we could connect dots: Italian plays American Indian; there were & are many tribes in the desert Southwest; spaghetti westerns (meant to represent the desert Southwest) were made in Italy, so there you go 🤪
And probably all of the “American Indians” over there were played by Italians too!
That ad affected me so much...I wrote a whole article about it!
"Moonshine kills" too. That one was 40% to 60% effective for me.
The Italian fellow.
Iron Eyes Cody. I never forgot and can't when I see the PTB letting garbage take over and push climate changy cr*p instead.

Thank you for remembering us...
Of course! Happy to oblige.
If you want to join us, Graphite, please do so. We would embrace your presence.
Traveled a lot this year and you are eleventy million times spot on.
I stand proud with you, Randy! 💯🙏❤️🇺🇸
🎯🎯🎯
I remember the PSAs from the 70s. Also, did anyone else think quicksand was going to be a bigger threat than it has been?
That and someone murdering you by injecting air bubbles in the IV bag in the hospital.
@Kristen- you're allowed up to 1cc of air. After that, you're on your own.
I was terrified of quicksand
It seemed we lost an actor every other movie or so. But Wesley, poor sweet Wesley cured us of that fear in the fire swamp.

I'm here til Thursday. Try the veal!
@Justin- HAHAHAHAHA!!
My parents were convinced if I wandered off on my grandparents rural property I would definitely be swallowed up by quicksand. 🤣😆
Yep. I spent way too much time practicing quick sand escapes. I think that was the movies though, not PSAs.
Yes! I thought about that while reading this article.
Yes! I immediately thought of that as Jenna went through the list of things we were told to worry about.
@Dr.- LOL!!
The best government is a government you don't notice. Just quietly doing things like repairing roads.
Agreed. The fact that we have to spend so much time and money on elections are an indication that the government is too big and too powerful. The government that governs least governs best.
As a former baseball umpire, I support this message.
@Keith- a true athletic supporter!
Why, thank you. We used to say, the best umpire is the one you don't remember from the game.
Hahaha...

In the words of the wise old Cuban immigrant “where else are you going to go?”
I Jesus name! Where the eff are you going to go! Chinada is taking names and applications. Please, take leave and let those of us who respect what we have some much needed peace.

Add people driving stoned.
That's a big one!

And fun!
Short-term memory…a bunch of goldfish.
It's the pot... smoking wrecks your err.. short-term... uh... So, what's everyone been up to then?
"Continuous short term memory loss will lead to long term memory loss." me, in a cannabis stupor in college. 😂
Love the guy. It's so much fun to have a President who is...so much fun. This guy knows FUN.

All part of the strategy, laid out step by step. Planned during the four year exile.
Has anybody heard of the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act that was quietly slipped in to a bill in 2012 and signed into law by Obama that legalized propaganda to be directed at the American public? Maybe this is Trump's way to get that steamrolled by making people on the other side so upset that they want it repealed.
It is PAST time to repeal that ridiculous Act.

I guarantee you that Newsom will not run for President. He is loathed by everyone, everywhere! 🎯💯🤩
He is 100% running, regardless of how many people view him negatively. He’s got a built in 30% vote share from the “vote blue, no matter who” crowd. Throw in “independent” AWFLs, now you’re getting somewhere. It will be amusing to see how he handles a debate with AOC though.

Holy Shite! You got er all figured out! May I please exit right stage?! I have got to find a way to deal with all this nonsense in Commie Cali.
Not to those of us who have lived in Cali for a long time and experienced the total wreckage of a great state by that sleeze!
