Today I have had enough of the doom and gloom in the humdrum of the daily news. So if you wish some enlightenment and wish to hear a shocking, but uplifting speech, listen to Vice President J.D. Vance’s speech on 2/14/25 at the Munich Security Conference. I just finished watching the entire 18+ minute speech … BOOM!
The multiple views of the audience suggested that what J.D.Vance was saying was not what they expected to hear. Yes there was a few smatterings of applause, but for the most part the crowd was silent … stunned … and possibly aghast that this relatively young whippersnapper could talk to them like that! He did not pick favorites as he blasted England, Germany, Romania, and more with both barrels.
The gist of his speech was that Europe’s main problem was a problem, not from foreign adversaries, but a problem from within. Through most of the speech you could have heard a pin drop. He talked about how real democratic values do not label the thoughts of others as ‘misinformation’ or ‘dis-information’ as the voice of the people matters. He queried how silent thought crimes could actually be crimes in certain countries. He stressed how unfettered immigration was destroying the European continent, especially in Germany.
At the beginning of the speech he pointed out that in America there is a new sheriff in town, and by this speech he indicated that the rules would no longer be the same.
If any of you have a spare twenty minutes today or any time this week, I would strongly encourage you to listen to this speech.
It will certainly be interesting to see if are any significant changes in the actions of Europe in general and in specific countries in particular.
