It UNDERSTANDING THE THREAT, is not American strength that’s provocative, it’s American AND AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY weakness that’s provocative. That is the reality the new administration faced in January, Amb. John Bolton, WCS17 and several significant things have been done since then. The president proposed a significant increase in the military budget over the Obama administration proposals, and it looks like the House of Representatives will authorize that increase. While I’m a great believer in reducing and eliminating deficits, we need to build up the military. Doing so doesn’t require larger deficits, it just means there are more wasteful domestic programs that are going to have to be cut. This starts by changing the debate on the level of military readiness we need. We need to recreate and reestablish the missile defense system that the George W. Bush administration began to protect us from rogue nations’ nuclear weapons programs. We need to rebuild the Navy to a suitable level. Under the last John Bolton, National Security Advisor of the United States, speaking at the 2017 Western administration, we watched the number of ships in our Navy Conservative Summit. drop to 285, the smallest number since 1916. Most of our astute military observers think we need a navy of 355 ships, so It roughly six-months since President Trump’s inauguration you can see we have a long way to go.

  • Constant Scholar Strength and Consistency of Hand: Skills Leeds
    spent a lifetime developing since, at age 17, he was accepted as the single disciple of Michael Frimkess, one of the seminal masters of the California clay movement. After Frimkess, Leeds found other teachers and evolved the distinctive body of work that, for 25 years, was exhibited and sold internationally by the gallery of Gumps, San Francisco. Recently, prompted by the sudden death of a close friend, Leeds has created a new body of work that integrates while it departs from all that he has learned before. In this uncharted region, for the first time, he has not sought a master. Born in New York to a father whose artistic ambitions were thwarted by World War II and the inconvenience of a family, Leeds grew up within constant conflict. “I was just checked out. I watched and waited until I could get away.” The family moved to Los Angeles in 1960 and Leeds ran away for the first time (at age 15) to Haight Ashbury where he found work in the shipyards and a home with a self-realisation community, “I was kind of a hippie but with a work ethic.” At age 17 he left for good. “I decided I would be a jeweller, so I went to get tools at a craft shop in downtown Los Angeles.” Above: Spring Landscape. 1983.
