Patriotic History: The Only Kind Worth Teaching

History, as any responsible government will tell you, is not about the messy details of what actually happened. No, history is about making sure your nation looks like the protagonist in every possible scenario. After all, why should schoolchildren be burdened with uncomfortable facts when they could be learning how every decision ever made by their country was, in fact, benevolent, visionary, and just a little bit heroic?

Take, for example, the treatment of Native Americans. While some so-called “historians” will whine about land theft, forced relocation, and broken treaties, the true patriot knows this was simply a centuries-long wellness retreat. Think about it: the Trail of Tears wasn’t a forced march—it was an early version of an endurance fitness challenge, designed to build character and community! Reservations? Not imposed confinement—just government-sponsored Airbnbs with scenic views. And boarding schools? Clearly advanced cultural exchange programs, where children generously traded their languages and traditions for the infinitely superior gift of learning to say “Yes, ma’am” in English.

And this principle can apply everywhere. Colonization? That wasn’t exploitation—it was the world’s most ambitious charity project, bringing the priceless treasures of fork usage and awkward formal clothing to the masses. Slavery? Don’t be ridiculous—it was a comprehensive vocational training initiative, complete with free housing and hands-on experience in agriculture. Sure, the housing was technically a shack and the training was mandatory, but details like that only distract from the larger story: everyone benefited from the arrangement (especially the plantation owners, and aren’t they people too?).

Indeed, if we adopt this approach, the entire record of human history becomes one glorious parade of altruism. Every war becomes a peacekeeping mission, every invasion a neighborhood outreach program, and every act of cultural erasure a thoughtful spring cleaning of outdated traditions. After all, if history doesn’t make you feel warm, fuzzy, and proud, then what’s even the point of remembering it?

So let us proudly declare: from this day forward, textbooks shall contain no failures, no mistakes, and certainly no injustices—only the shining, selfless, perfect actions of a nation that has never, ever done anything wrong. Critics will call this “propaganda,” but we patriots know the truth: it’s simply history the way it was always meant to be told—correctly.

Trump Says Ukraine War Caused by Stolen 2020 Election; Ends Conflict Instantly with Confidence

At a joint press conference this week with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy , U.S. President Donald Trump unveiled a sweeping new theory of international relations, asserting that the Russian invasion of Ukraine would never have occurred if the 2020 U.S. presidential election had not been “stolen from him personally.” “This war,” Trump said, gesturing broadly toward Eastern Europe, “is really about me. Everybody knows it. If I were president, this would not have happened. Putin would have been too scared. Tremendously scared.” Standing beside him, Zelensky maintained a diplomatic expression usually reserved for situations involving translation errors or mild food poisoning. Trump continued, explaining that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was not the result of decades of post-Cold War tension, NATO expansion debates, or Russian imperial ambition, but rather a direct consequence of Trump not being in the White House at the time. “Putin respects strength,” Trump said. “And by streng...

Trump’s Prime-Time Address Assures Americans the Economy Is Perfect—Suggests They’re Just Too Stupid to Notice

In an unexpected return to prime-time television, President Donald J. Trump delivered a 28-minute national address Wednesday night designed, according to his staff, to “clear up confusion about the economy.” The resulting speech instead raised questions about whether he had accidentally wandered onto the soundstage during a pharmaceutical infomercial. “Ladies and gentlemen, the American economy is the strongest, the bigliest, the most incredible it has ever been,” Trump announced, gripping the lectern as if it had personally wronged him. “If you can’t see that, well… maybe you’re just not very smart. Not everyone can be smart. I’m very smart. But most of you, frankly? Not so much.” Economic experts, who had spent the previous week offering cautious optimism mixed with concern about rising costs, were surprised to learn that the entire issue was simply a matter of insufficient national intelligence. “Normally we talk about inflation, interest rates, employment trends,” said economist Da...

Trump Unveils Bold New Healthcare Vision: Trumpcare, Which Is Totally Different From Obamacare Except for the Parts That Are the Same

In a dazzling Rose Garden announcement complete with golden bunting, a fog machine, and a choir humming “Hail to the Chief” in a minor key, President Donald J. Trump unveiled what he called “the most spectacular, most terrific, most everybody-is-saying-so healthcare plan in American history.” He dubbed it Trumpcare™ —a revolutionary system in which the federal government will give money directly to people so that they can better afford their own healthcare. “Folks, it’s simple,” Trump proclaimed, flanked by several cardboard cutouts of himself in a lab coat. “Under Trumpcare, instead of the government being involved—terrible idea, horrible—we’re going to give people money so they can pay for their healthcare. Total freedom. The best freedom.” The audience applauded, though several appeared to be staffers who had been instructed to clap every time Trump paused to breathe. A Reporter Dares to Ask During the Q&A portion—limited to 30 seconds and only reporters who had pre-approved ...
