I reread this every year.
I cry like a baby every year.
Todd Beamer died a father, husband, and hero.
Todd: Hello… Operator… listen to me. I can’t speak very loud. This is an emergency. I’m a passenger on a United flight to San Francisco. Our plane has been hijacked.
Lisa: I understand. Can they see you?
Todd: No. There are three that we know of. They have knives — razor knives, like box cutters. Someone announced from the cockpit there was a bomb. It sounded fake.
Lisa: Your name?Todd: Todd Beamer. United Flight 93.Todd: They killed one passenger in first class. They forced most of us back. Fourteen of us here. Five flight attendants. The guy with the bomb ordered us to sit on the floor.
Lisa: Are you okay?
Todd: We’re going down… wait. No. We’re leveling off. We changed directions. We’re flying east again.
Todd: A guy named Jeremy called his wife. She told him two planes hit the World Trade Center. Lisa, is that true?
Lisa: I have to tell you the truth. It’s very bad. Both towers are gone. A third plane hit the Pentagon. Our country is under attack. I’m afraid your plane may be part of their plan.
Todd: Oh God. Lisa, will you do something for me? Call my wife and my kids. Promise me you’ll call.
Lisa: I promise.
Todd: Our home number is… You have the same name as my wife. Lisa. We’ve been married ten years. She’s pregnant with our third child. Tell her I love her. I’ll always love her. We have two boys — David, he’s 3, and Andrew, he’s 1. Tell them their daddy loves them and he is so proud of them. The baby is due January 12th. I saw an ultrasound. We still don’t know if it’s a girl or a boy.
Lisa: I’ll tell them. I promise, Todd.(Lisa patches in the FBI.)
Agent: Todd, your plane is on a course for Washington. Best guess is the White House or the Capitol.
Todd: I understand. I’ll be back.
Todd: Everyone knows this isn’t a normal hijacking. We have decided we will not be pawns in their plot.
Lisa: What are you going to do?
Todd: Four of us are going to rush the one with the bomb. Then the cockpit. A stewardess is getting boiling water. We’ll take them out.
Todd: Would you pray with me?They pray the Lord’s Prayer. Then: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me.
Todd: God help me. Jesus help me.Are you guys ready? Let’s Roll.

🚨#BREAKING: An off-duty firefighter is being hailed as a hero after he rescued TWO CHILDREN FROM A TEXAS LAKE WITH NO PULSE...
...PERFORMED CPR ON THEM AND BROUGHT THEM BOTH BACK TO LIFE ON TOP OF THEIR CAPSIZED BOAT!!!!!
His name is Jason Horne.
He was on Alvarado Lake celebrating the 4th with his 12-year-old daughter Emilie when people started screaming and waving them down.
A boat carrying NINE people had flipped and THREE children were trapped underneath it.
Jason immediately dove in to rescue them.
Under that boat, he found a little boy, he saved him, and then dove back in.
He felt a foot, it was a little girl and Jason tore her loose and brought her back, but she did not have a pulse.
He dragged her ON TOP OF THE CAPSIZED BOAT and performed CPR until she began breathing again.
He and others then flipped the boat and found a little boy with anchor rope WRAPPED AROUND HIS BODY.
The boy also did not have a pulse, he performed CPR on the boy until he got a pulse.
Astonishingly, ALL THREE KIDS SURVIVED!!!!
Every single one went home to their families.
His department said it best: "When others needed help most, Jason did what firefighters do. He stepped up without hesitation."
A 12-year-old girl sat in that boat and watched her father dive into a lake and come back up carrying other people's children.
She will spend the rest of her life knowing EXACTLY what a hero looks like.
He looks like her dad.
GOD BLESS JASON HORNE!!!!!!!🇺🇸

This is a ridiculously over-the-top display of brash arrogant patriotism.

We are in the first stages of secession.
Mamdani considers New York an independent city-state, with it's own foreign policy, immigration policy, and economic policy. He does not recognize the legitimacy of the federal government or even the United States as a nation to any extent beyond that which his party can directly control or benefit from financially.
He does not talk about himself as an American, nor does he speak of New York as a component of the United States. Quite the opposite, in fact.
And aside from his official portraits, he is never voluntarily photographed with or around an American flag. And he is WAY too conscious of optics for that to be anything other than deliberate.
He (and the DSA with him) will use the power of this city to wage a soft civil war against the nation itself.
It is LONG PAST TIME for an appropriately severe reaction from the federal government. The Constitution is not a suicide pact. This is not politics, this is the enemy.

“People hate the Muslim migrants not because they gang raped A QUARTER OF A MILLION White girls in the UK…
…people hate the Muslim migrants because PEOPLE DARED TO TELL THEM about the Muslim migrants gang raping a QUARTER OF A MILLION White girls in the UK.”
Fuck you, Owen.

Another example of why nothing bothers gen x. We were there for the uprising of the Dice Man. After he showed up nothing would be the same. 🤣🤣🤣🎲🎲

Because....because... TRUMP!
Here's far-left New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill... announcing the state is facing a $3 BILLION ‘Structural Deficit’.
But.... wait for it.... she says it’s Trump’s fault she has to raise taxes.
Isn't it funny how these Democrats raise taxes right after getting elected?
REPOST for widespread exposure.
