Artillery deploying to the Middle East is for routine support of anti-ISIS operations. Sen. Cotton's post two hours ago sparked a frenzy among OSINT accounts and antisemites. The 142nd Brigade is deploying only 130 soldiers, and today they went to Ft. Bliss TX for processing.

NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman@NASAAdmin·4h

Artemis II has reached its maximum distance from Earth. On the far side of the Moon, 252,756 miles away, Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy have now traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history and now begin their journey home. Before they left, they said they hoped this mission would be forgotten, but it will be remembered as the moment people started to believe that America can once again do the near-impossible and change the world. Congratulations to this incredible crew and the entire NASA team, our international and commercial partners, but this mission isn’t over until they’re under safe parachutes, splashing down into the Pacific.

The Last Homely House@AHomelyHouse·3h

"I had a mother who read to me Sagas of pirates who scoured the sea, Cutlasses clenched in their yellow teeth, "Blackbirds" stowed in the hold beneath. I had a Mother who read me lays Of ancient and gallant and golden days; Stories of Marmion and Ivanhoe, Which every boy has a right to know. I had a Mother who read me tales Of Gelert the hound of the hills of Wales, True to his trust till his tragic death, Faithfulness blent with his final breath. I had a Mother who read me the things That wholesome life to the boy heart brings-- Stories that stir with an upward touch, Oh, that each mother of boys were such! You may have tangible wealth untold; Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold. Richer than I you can never be-- I had a Mother who read to me." - by Strickland Gillilan Painting by James Sant

History With Jacob@HistoryWJacob·8h

🇬🇧 VS 🇺🇸 Round 5: Achievements America’s crowning achievement is the Constitution. The world’s oldest written national charter still in force. Brilliant framework of limited government and checks & balances that launched our great experiment. We’ve been battered and bruised, attacked from within and abroad. But we are still standing as the best hope for mankind. And by God, the best is yet to come 🇺🇸 “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

Historical Chronicles@HistoriaJack

🇬🇧 VS 🇺🇸 Round 5: Achievements Britain had the largest empire in history, this alone is achievement enough, but importantly we opted to cash in our imperial might to abolish one of humanity's oldest and gravest practices - The Slave Trade. In 1807, the British Parliament passed the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act prohibiting the buying and selling of enslaved peoples, and in 1833 passed The Slavery Abolition Act freeing existing slaves. Britain did more than just pass laws, we backed these up, throwing about both our poltical and military weight to suppress the Transatlantic Slave Trade. British anti slavery crusading continued well into the 19th century, with diplomatic pressure eventually leading to the end of the East African Trade too. "A trade founded in iniquity, and carried on as this was, must be abolished, let the policy be what it might, let the consequences be what they would" - William Wilberforce MP

@StopAntisemites That is good news, the thought process of a "mental health provider" to do this must be truly... unhealthy.

StopAntisemitism@StopAntisemites·14h

NYC - Mental health provider Jennifer Koonings filmed herself shouting antisemitic slurs - "baby killers" and "f*ck Israel" - at Jewish individuals peacefully going about their day. This isn’t a lapse in judgment. It raises serious concerns about her fitness to treat patients, especially Jewish clients. She's affiliated with Inspire Mental Health Services.

Rabbi Poupko@RabbiPoupko·11h

Antisemites may lose their minds over this, but this is what a true American hero 🇺🇸 looks like: General Lucian King Truscott Jr. commanded the 3rd Infantry Division 🇺🇸 during World War II and after World War II. When the War was won General Truscott saw that Nazi destruction of Jewish life left to Jews without any holy books and copies of the Tamud. So he ordered a printing of the Talmud, the first Talmud to be printed after the Holocaust. Where did he choose to print it? In the Nazi Party’s publishing house in Munich, Franz Eher Verlag--the same place Hitler's first edition of Mein Kampf was published. Judaism teaches that "a little bit of light can expel a great deal of darkness". The Jewish people will forever remember "The Survivors Talmud" and everything General Lucian King Truscott has done to defeat and dispel the darkness of Nazism.

RodeoProfessor@RodeoProfessor·14h

What’s neat about being an American is, even in civilian life, if you’re ever in a place where the shit is *really* hitting the fan (e.g. a bad guy decides to take control of the army and turn the internet off in an entire country, roads are getting blocked, buildings on fire, food stores close down, commercial air travel stops) the U.S. government will aggressively help locate us and help us leave. They answer and won’t abandon you to your fate. When this happens and you’re saying good byes in the hotel lobby there’s always some forlorn French or South Africans just like “we can’t get ahold of anyone and have no idea what to do.” People who don’t constantly marvel at American greatness aren’t living in reality.

@RodeoProfessor You got that right. We are truly blessed to be American, which also means we owe a debt to the Founders and to our children and grandchildren.

A good citizen does more than abide by the laws. A good citizen is able to give a morally compelling account of his country. He is able to justify its defense against its enemies, and to recommend its virtues to citizens of the next generation. - Richard John Neuhaus

Helo buddy of mine trained to do a one-armed pull-up in the event he ever needed to extricate himself from a crash with one arm. It saved his life when he actually needed to do just that.
