June 6, 1944: How D-Day Saved Europe -- Colin's Last Stand (Episode 63)
By June of 1944, it was finally time to halt Nazi Germany's conquest across the European continent. Doing so wouldn't be easy, though. Ending Adolf Hitler's Third Reich would require the perfect execution of the biggest, most complex, and most dangerous military operation in human history. This is the story of Operation Overlord.

The Good Things President Trump Has Accomplished -- Colin's Last Stand (Episode 62)

It’s exceptionally easy to point out everything wrong with Donald Trump’s presidency. I do it all the time. But there’s far more to the story than just that.

    How did I miss this? Interviews like this should be watched by all Americans. That day and days to come are too often twisted for political gains and arguing nonsense. I find the discourse around 9/11 today to be disrespectful to those who fought so hard. Well done. Hopefully there is more in the coming years to commemorate that day.

    So colins stance is support but not really supporting it via tax dollars. I dont think trans-rights activists are out here on the streets just so ppl say yeah im cool with it but i dont support my dollars going to it. If happiness is contingent on medical treatment with a cost to society, i think society should have to burden that cost. Society burdens costs that some may disagree with, that is the point of a communal pot. Kinda a shallow video

    This was hard to watch. So no discussion on US involvement in the coups. No talk about sanctions by the US. Talk about the historical oppression in all of South America and how all of the countries in SA are not doing great. You cant talk about outcome, only look at one variable and blame it on that one variable. Greece's economy collapsed and had to be bailed out. Its government didnt have US-led coups, wasnt being sanctioned - it fell under its own weight. I guess capitalism sucks too then. Zoom out a bit, learn the full histories instead of just Wikipedia. Mexico isnt socialist, why all the corruption and crime there?

    I have heard an interesting take from the channel Knowing Better. The 3rd Ammendment was written during a time when the concept of police didnt exist, the military was the police force of their time. Their job was to enact English law and collect taxes, they served an executive function. The 3rd Ammendment thereby was meant to prohibit a standing professional police force with military grade weapons and would be better served to be made up of volunteers within that community. Police departments are quartered in communities and use local resources (taxes)

    This 300 years is to cover the connection between the hun empire and hungarian kingdom. In theory there was an Avar kingdom in this 300 years period. I am 46 years old. I have never seen any proof or sign,that these people ever lived in Hungary. No building,no words,no names,no tools,nothing.Some bones,that could easily be hungarian bones. Recently there was a text found from "that" period on a comb or something and this text was written in old hungarian. In theory, hungarians lived far avay from today's Hungary in that age. Also think about King Arthur. Same period,but no proof that he lived and many other strange things. I can imagine,that this 297 years are fake. Another thing. The first hungarian king or leader said,that Attila lived like 5 generation before him and he is his ancestor. Without this 297 years,it could be true. We are also told at school,that the word hun and hungarian is only accidentally similiar. Really?

    I have a colleague teaching with me at a school who worked for Niemitz and who is an ardent follower of the theory. My main counter was Occam's razor: what is the motive or necessity of this conspiracy? Cui bono? No one. It's similar to the moon landing theory that is not even denied by the Russians, who have a vested interest to disprove the Americans did it. It also focussed way too much on Franco-Germanic history and ignores the chronicles of Russia (Russian Primary Chronicle), the silver trade from the middle East up to Scandinavia, and basically history from all over the world. It's crazy. They have some good points of evidence, but as science goes there's different models that explain the world and we judge by the evidence. I find that there's less evidence for Phantom Time than other theories.
