Support our troops!
As a retired master sergeant, I love that this young man is more afraid of his sergeant than he is of the secretary of defense. He was following orders and doing exactly what he was trained to do. 🫡

Hegseth is a national disgrace. He has been an abomination to our military.
WATCH: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and his group were scolded by an Army sentinel at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier during a Veterans Day ceremony after a disruption of the solemn atmosphere. “All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.” The chief Pentagon spokesman defended Hegseth’s commitment to honoring the sacrifices of service members while acknowledging the lapse: “While commemorating this solemn day, a soldier correctly and respectfully reminded everyone to maintain decorum.” Get the full story behind the tense exchange: foxnews.com/politics/army-se…

I am ashamed that we could treat those that served our country like this ...😞
Veteran detained by ICE: I identified myself as a US citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out. Even after I complied, I was taken to a detention center and held for 3 days without charges. No phone call, no lawyer, no medical care, even though my skin burned from the chemicals.

Perhaps the greatest individual defensive effort I have seen...
19 Years ago James Harrison had one of the greatest defensive performance ever on Monday Night Football vs the Ravens: 3.5 Sacks 10 tackles 3 FF 1 FR 6 QB hits 1 INT 1 PD #steelers

Young Hoopers TAKE NOTES “Playing hard is a strength. Playing hard is a skill. A lot of people think skill is dunking. Or passing and shooting. No, playing hard is a skill.” I would argue that playing hard might be the most important skill 🗣️

Very sad...one of the finest collegiate players ever.
Now Len Bias is 6-foot-8, 210 out of Maryland, where he plays for Lefty Driesell. Explosive athuhlete, powerful finisher, but don’t get so caught up in the dunks that you miss the jump shot. Beautiful elevation and a soft touch. You back off, he rises right over you. Twenty-three a night as a senior. Boston takes him second in ’86, and imagine putting that talent next to a guy named Larry Bird. We never got to see it, baby. But understand something: the greatness at Maryland was already there.

Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

Prices in our country are totally out of control....insanity. Our politicians need to understand the problems of the average Americans. Totally out of touch with the real world.
Nobody talks about how we're all paying $15 for sandwiches now and just pretending that's normal. Five years ago that same sandwich was $8. The price doubled and the only explanation we got was "supply chain issues" which apparently means "forever."

Been saying this for years, billionaires engineer hate and fear to control the masses to maintain their power.
Hinojosa NAILED IT. This isn’t about left versus right. It’s about 99.9% of us versus 15 billionaire tech guys who think they own our government. THAT’S THE REAL FIGHT. 👏

It means absolutely nothing if you’re the first in the gym and the last one to leave if you’re not productive during that time.

Thank you for your service....RIP
An American legend has taken his final rest. John Kinsel Sr., one of the last original Navajo Code Talkers who used their language to outwit the Japanese in World War II, has died at 107. His passing closes a key chapter in the story of the men whose secret messages helped save countless lives in the Pacific. In 1942, the U.S. Marine Corps recruited Navajo men for a classified mission. Standard codes were being broken, but the complex, unwritten Navajo language—known to fewer than 30 non-Navajos—became the solution. Kinsel, born in Lukachukai, Arizona, was among those who stepped forward. He served with the 9th Marine Regiment in brutal battles including Guam, Bougainville, and Iwo Jima. Under constant fire, the Code Talkers sent fast, accurate radio messages using terms like “turtle” for “tank” and “chicken hawk” for “dive bomber”—a code the Japanese never cracked. The mission remained secret for decades. Kinsel returned home unable to speak of his role until the operation was declassified in 1968. He spent his final years in the log home he built himself and passed away peacefully in his sleep. With his death, we lose a living link to one of America’s most remarkable wartime contributions. As Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren said: “He fought for all of us to have the freedom we enjoy today.” Rest in peace, warrior .. ❤️Thank you for your interest!❤️

Awesome moment...
Today in 1994, 45-year-old George Foreman knocks out Michael Moorer to regain the world heavyweight title over 20 years after losing it to Muhammad Ali. My single most joyous moment as a sports fan. I jumped off the couch and knocked over my coffee table.

BREAKING: In a powerful moment, a Vietnam veteran is suing the Trump Administration for its effort to desecrate Arlington National Cemetery. Every American needs to see this.

So at metro airport, go in a little store, no one in it, buy my Diet Dr Pepper for the flight to Stanford. Everything is automated. Last prompt before I scan my phone to pay, “would you like to tip?” WHO? There is literally no one in the place. I always tip. Not today
