The modern battlefield demands a fundamental shift in how we build and deploy our forces. To maintain maritime dominance, the @USNavy and @USMC are aggressively pursuing a hi-lo mix of capabilities. Drones and autonomous systems are critical force multipliers—lethal, adaptive and built for speed and scale.
South Vietnam didn’t fall because it was beaten. It fell because it was betrayed.
Fifty-one years ago today, April 30, 1975, the last American helicopter lifted off the Saigon embassy roof.
We had won. Nixon and Kissinger’s Paris Peace Accords forced the North to recognize South Vietnam’s sovereignty. America promised air power and supplies if they violated it. The ARVN was finally ready to defend itself.
Then Watergate. Democrats won huge majorities in 1974. They slashed aid by over 75%, banned any U.S. response to Soviet rearmament of the North, and watched as the Communists violated every agreement.
No bullets. No gas. No tires for their Jeeps.
South Vietnam collapsed—not from lack of courage, but abandonment by the same Democrats that sent our sons to die there a decade earlier.
What followed wasn’t peace. It was hell.
The Domino Theory wasn’t wrong. Cambodia and Laos fell. Pol Pot—praised by the American left as “Cambodia’s George Washington”—murdered 1/3 of his own people.
A million sent to re-education camps in Vietnam. Half a million murdered. Two million boat people fled; nearly half a million drowned.
I was eight, standing in a church hall in Arkansas, looking up at a South Vietnamese flag on a refugee’s lapel. I just wept and said “I’m sorry” over and over.
We should all still be sorry.
This wasn’t inevitable. It was engineered in Washington.
Just like the fall of China in 1949. Christian anti-Communist leaders betrayed by Democrats in both cases—Chiang by Truman, Diem by JFK—then the deluge.
Nixon was right in No More Vietnams: When America fights, fight to win with overwhelming force. Never send troops without vital interests at stake. Once committed, keep your word to allies. Peace comes through strength, not weakness.
We forgot those lessons.
In 2021, Biden gave us Saigon 2.0 in Kabul. Allies abandoned. Billions in weapons to the enemy.
Desperate people clinging to aircraft. Women enslaved again. Credibility shattered. Then came Ukraine.
It’s dangerous to be an American ally when Democrats hold power.
The men who fought in Vietnam—American and South Vietnamese—were heroes. They didn’t lose. They were betrayed.
Fifty years on, remember why Saigon fell. Honor that noble cause. Resolve: No more Vietnams. No more Afghanistans. No more betrayals.
America must lead with strength, clarity, and resolve. Freedom isn’t free. The price of abandoning it is always paid in blood.
I wrote a longer essay detailing this. You should read it. Link in my bio.
Never forget.
I can’t believe how lax the security was at the White House correspondents dinner tonight. Upon entering nobody asked to visibly INSPECT my ticket nor asked for my photo identification. All one had to do was flash what appeared to be a ticket and they were fine with that. When you consider you are entering a roomful of fake news media —90% of whom hate the President you would think they would have better security. This is what happened when what sounded like gunfire erupted.
On the way out, I called-out a bunch of the disgusting Media who have been pushing hatred toward President Trump for years. They are a big part of the discord in this country.

The left's verdict? White supremacist.
Because he made a joke in 2024 mocking the absurdity of being called a white supremacist as a Vietnamese man.
They literally proved his point in real time😂
This is also why nobody takes the label seriously anymore...

The Trump administration is now revoking green cards and deporting relatives of Iranian regime officials who are living in America.
Should foreigners who burn the American flag and express hatred for America also be deported?
DETAINED: CONVICTED MURDERER FROM VIETNAM Minh Tieu is a criminal illegal alien from Vietnam convicted of MURDER Jan. 26, 1996, in Fort Wayne, IN. After serving over 25 years of his 45-year sentence in the slammer, he was released. Soon after, ICE placed Tieu on Alternatives to Detention. Tieu violated ATD terms, so he was located by pinging his ankle monitor. ICE re-arrested him in March. He has a final order of removal, but ICE is waiting on Vietnam to issue travel documents to affect his deportation home.
