For all of history, evil has threatened to take over the created order and spread chaos everywhere, and for all of history, men have risen from the ashes to confront and destroy that evil. Those men — those dragon-slayers — understood the uncompromisable importance of total victory, but few expressed it as well as Winston Churchill.
Churchill was a man the world needed in one of its darkest hours, and he’s a man who showed up and led the world in the face of blood-thirsty armies and unthinkable terror. When the British faced the Nazis, Churchill spoke a message to his people that has echoed through the annals of our time.
“We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender,” Churchill said in his historic speech before the House of Commons on June 4, 1940.
We should never forget those words of courage. And now, thanks to the strength, courage, and victory of another man who was confronted with the evil of our day, Churchill’s bust is back in the Oval Office. President Donald Trump returned the Churchill bust to the Oval Office immediately after being sworn in last week, The Independent reported.
President Joe Biden had swapped Churchill’s bust for busts of civil rights leaders Rosa Parks and Cesar Chavez, per The Independent, but Trump, a huge fan of Churchill, wasn’t going to let the British Bulldog’s bust collect dust in some White House storage closet.
Oh, and this wasn’t the first time Trump moved Churchill’s bust back into the Oval Office. He did the same thing after President Barack Obama gave Churchill the boot from 2009 to 2017.
Trump’s move, while not covered much by the legacy media, gained some attention when British political commentator Piers Morgan thanked the president for moving Churchill back into the Oval Office.
“President @realDonaldTrump has (again) returned Sir Winston Churchill to the Oval Office. Both Obama & Biden removed him. Thank you, Mr President – we Brits are very appreciative,” Morgan wrote.

As Churchill said, “Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.”
