King Philip’s War: 17th-Century Hostility Between The Wampanoag and The Pilgrims
On June 20, 1675, the small border town of Swansea, Massachusetts, was attacked by a band of Pokanoket of the Wampanoag tribe . No casualties resulted from the Pokanoket raid that day, except for some dead cattle and homesteads that were raided and robbed. Four days later, the massacre began. On June 24, the Pokanoket returned, and this time they killed none of the inhabitants but wounded seven. After the Pokanoket raid, the call to arms spread throughout the colonies, and the people responded. This was one of the most devastating conflicts in America, and it all started with the murder of John Sassamon and the trial that led to the execution of three Wampanoag warriors. However, there is a more important question. Was it really the trial and execution of the three warriors that gave rise to the war or was there more to the story?

Of Plymouth Plantation is the first-hand account of the voyage of the ship
Mayflower, founding of Plymouth Colony in modern-day Massachusetts, and the further colonization of the region of the United States now known as New England, written between 1630-1651 CE and covering the period c. 1607-1650 CE. William Bradford (l. 1590-1657 CE) was the second governor of the Plymouth Colony (1620-1691 CE) who arrived in North America aboard the
Mayflower and was a central participant in the founding and development of the settlement from the beginning.
Of Plymouth Plantation is, therefore, considered one of the most important works from early Colonial America.

Christopher Krebs, the Department of Homeland Security official who spearheaded a campaign to counter rumors about and eliminating voter fraud, has been fired by Donald Trump. Krebs’s firing came after his agency, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, last week released a statement calling the 2020 election “the most secure in American history.”
CBS “60 Minutes” has featured a segment on this subject. Mr. Krebs gave an enlightening delivery of this committee’s work. Now, the stunner! No one including the media has enlisted the fact that neither Russia, China, or any other invasive country hacked into our election.
