John McKenzie is on the Pennsylvania State Memorial at Gettysburg. The National Park Service name index for that monument lists him as Private John McKenzie, 23rd Pennsylvania Infantry, Company E. The same search also turns up two other McKenzies on the bronze tablets: Hugh McKenzie, private, 39th Pennsylvania Infantry (10th Pennsylvania Reserves), Company E, and A. B. McKenzie, corporal, 140th Pennsylvania Infantry, Company F. The spelling “Mackenzie” does not appear. The Pennsylvania Memorial, on Cemetery Ridge, is the large state monument with bronze tablets naming the roughly 34,500 Pennsylvania soldiers recorded as present at the battle. An asterisk next to a name marks those killed or mortally wounded; John McKenzie’s entry has no asterisk in the park index. The 23rd Pennsylvania fought on the Union right, on Culp’s Hill, on the morning of July 3. That spot is circled on the battle map. The fishhook is the Union line. North is at the top. The town of Gettysburg sits inside the bend. Cemetery Hill is the hinge. Cemetery Ridge runs south toward Little Round Top and Big Round Top. Culp’s Hill is the eastern barb, just southeast of town, beside the Baltimore Pike. Confederate lines face it from the north and west, with Johnson’s division of Ewell’s corps pressing the hill from the east. John McKenzie’s regiment was not on that hill for the July 2 night fight. The 23rd Pennsylvania, Birney’s Zouaves, belonged to Brig. Gen. Alexander Shaler’s brigade, Third Division, VI Corps, under Maj. Gen. John Sedgwick. The corps finished a long march and stood mostly in reserve on July 2. On the morning of July 3, Shaler’s brigade was sent to reinforce the XII Corps on Culp’s Hill. The 23rd went in on the lower slope, supporting Maj. Gen. John W. Geary’s division, and its monument now stands on Slocum Avenue. The fight there ended about noon, before Pickett’s Charge crossed the open ground farther south. Union commanders, north to south along that line: Meade commanded the Army of the Potomac. Reynolds opened the fight west of town on July 1 and was killed; Newton later led the I Corps. Howard’s XI Corps held Cemetery Hill. Slocum’s XII Corps, with Geary’s division, held Culp’s Hill. Hancock’s II Corps held Cemetery Ridge. Sickles pushed the III Corps out to the Peach Orchard on July 2. Sykes’s V Corps held Little Round Top. Sedgwick’s VI Corps, including the 23rd, was the reserve that fed men onto the hill on July 3. Pleasonton commanded the cavalry. Confederate commanders: Lee commanded the Army of Northern Virginia. Ewell’s II Corps came in from the north; Johnson’s division made the attacks on Culp’s Hill. A.P. Hill’s III Corps faced the Union center from Seminary Ridge. Longstreet’s I Corps struck the Union left on July 2 and sent Pickett, Pettigrew, and Trimble across the fields on July 3. Stuart’s cavalry was largely off this map, to the east. The 23rd Pennsylvania monument stands on Slocum Avenue at Gettysburg, on the lower slope of Culp’s Hill. A Zouave soldier tops the shaft. The base reads “23rd PA. Vols.,” “Birney’s Zouaves,” and “First Brigade, Third Division, Sixth Corps.” The statue was added in 1888, when the monument was moved and rededicated. The figure is in the regiment’s Zouave uniform, the same kit Private John McKenzie’s company wore. It was modeled on Medal of Honor recipient William J. Wray, with the head taken from Corporal Matthew Spence. Pennsylvania State Memorial on Cemetery Ridge, the largest monument on the Gettysburg battlefield. It was dedicated in 1910 and finished in 1914. The bronze figure on the dome is the Goddess of Victory and Peace. Bronze statues of Lincoln, Governor Curtin, and Pennsylvania generals stand in the arches.

A Manhattan therapist who founded an LGBTQ practice has been indicted for anally raping two patients in the office he ran. A second therapist there is charged with r*ping a teen patient READ THAT AGAIN!!! Joseph LoGiudice founded Liberation Psychotherapy. He led the gay men’s group. The patients came to him for therapy. One was in his 30s. He was there because he had just been s*xually assaulted. Prosecutors say he told LoGiudice he did not want sex. He was recovering from surgery on his anus. Prosecutors say LoGiudice kissed him, closed the blinds, and had oral and anal s*x with him in the office. Then told him not to tell his private therapist. A second time in that office, prosecutors say LoGiudice anally r*ped him. The patient had panic attacks. He reported it on August 18, 2026. The second patient came in for an abusive relationship. Prosecutors say LoGiudice told him he was attractive and commented on his penis. November 2025, prosecutors say he texted that patient: “When can I suck on that d—k.” Judge Cori Weston set bail at $100,000 cash. WAIT….It gets worse….. September 16. Another therapist at that same practice. Remington Yhap, 47. Indicted for r*ping a teenage patient. The DA says the patient was a 17-year-old transgender boy. The DA says the teen started therapy in September 2025. Prosecutors say Yhap sent him explicit photos and videos, exposed his penis on a video session, and asked the teen to send explicit photos back. June 2026. Prosecutors say he r*ped the teen during an in-person session. The teen reported it the next month. One of LoGiudice’s patients came forward after hearing about Yhap. Two therapists. One practice. One charged with r*ping adult patients. One indicted for raping a teenage patient. WHEN WILL IT STOP!!!!!!!!!!

Do-gooding wanker has lost his house to the Syrian migrants he rented it to 😂

This is what indoctrination looks like A biological male who became a transgender now making instructional videos telling little kids they can be transgender too and telling little kids to call straight people ‘Cis gender’ He speaks in a tone you would speak to little Kids too “Can you say cisgender? Good job!” This is so sick. We are sitting back and letting these grown men dress up as women and mass indoctrinate the youth of America No society should allow this to happen, what are we even doing

Someday children will study the fall of western civilization, and this woman's photo will be on the front of the textbook.

True Story: On November 21, 2010, twenty-one-year-old Marine Lance Corporal Kyle Carpenter was stationed on a sandbagged rooftop outpost in Marjah, Helmand Province, Afghanistan. During an insurgent attack, an enemy hand grenade bounced onto the roof, landing directly between Carpenter and his fellow Marine, Lance Corporal Nick Eufrazio. Without hesitation, Carpenter threw his body directly over the grenade to shield his friend from the blast. The explosion shattered his body: his right eye was destroyed, his lower jaw was blown away, his collarbone and right arm were broken in dozens of places, and his heart stopped. When the medical evacuation flight landed at Camp Bastion, medics initially classified him as P.E.V. (Patient Expired Upon Arrival). He flatlined three separate times, but doctors and corpsmen refused to give up, reviving him against all odds. Carpenter was flown to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, where he spent roughly three years enduring 40 surgeries. Throughout his hospitalization, his mother, Robin, rarely left his side, sleeping in a chair next to his bed for months. The physical recovery was grueling, but the emotional low point came months into his rehabilitation. Carpenter was sitting up in bed attempting to eat a bowl of cereal by himself. Because severed facial nerves left his mouth and chin completely numb, milk spilled across his chest. Looking into a mirror at his altered face, he broke down weeping and asked his mother, "Who is ever going to love me again?" His mother held his face in her hands and reminded him of his faith: God had kept him alive for a distinct reason, his value was defined by his character rather than his scars, and true family and community would always love him unconditionally. Rather than turning to cynicism or viewing himself as a victim, Carpenter adopted an uncompromising mindset of gratitude, referring to the rest of his life as "the bonus round". He retrained his body, completed the Marine Corps Marathon, earned a four-year college degree from the University of South Carolina, and was awarded the Medal of Honor.
