Memorial Day Calls Americans To Remember The Fallen And Live With Purpose

By Mike Glover | Commentary, Substack Memorial Day means something different once you’ve buried friends. For a lot of Americans, it has become another long weekend. A kickoff to summer. Barbecues, travel plans, sales, days at the lake. And there’s nothing wrong with families spending time together. In fact, that freedom is exactly what generations of American warriors fought to preserve. But Memorial Day was never intended to be casual. It is a day rooted in sacrifice. Not service in general.

‘You got our kids murdered’: Gold Star families lambast Harris for politicizing Trump’s appearance at Arlington Ceremony

Her plot backfired tremendously, however, when several of the family members mourning those murdered during the terrorist attack at Abbey Gate issued statements condemning Harris for politicizing the remnants of a disaster she created. Trump, at the request of the Gold Star families, attended a service at Arlington National Cemetery last week honoring the fallen on the third anniversary of their deaths. According to the families who organized the event, Trump and his team were “respectful” and “lis...
