Although today might feel like a tough day, let's keep some perspective. This was the first F-15 reportedly shot down by Iran after more than 12000 US combat sorties in Operation Epic Fury. Our A-10s and SH-60 Seahawks flew low and aggressive on Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) for the downed pilot, and they got him home safely. Would you rather lose one aircraft or lose the pilot? Our military is hands-down the greatest fighting force on the planet. Have faith in them. Video is from a prior mission, not related to todays events.

Obama once fired the top general in Afghanistan after it was reported he made a joke about Joe Biden

Barack Obama fired nearly 200 Generals and Admirals who had risen through the ranks to earn those positions DURING WARTIME. President Trump is firing Generals who rose through up through the ranks to their positions via DEI during peacetime.

Hegseth has fired over 12 generals.

Russian T-90 MBT blows up into pieces - Old Footage

Canadian Astronaut Humanely Euthanized After Suffering Light Bruise During Takeoff buff.ly/rtDyrKy

Seeing images of a lone Warthog circling low over Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province, Iran, supporting the CSAR for the downed F-15E crew. No heavy ordnance, no ECM pods, just the GAU-8 and a pilot hugging the deck - guarding the survivors. The images remind me of the "Sandy" missions of Vietnam, flown by A-10's granddaddy, the A-1 Skyraider. The tools have changed, but the role remains the same: fly low and slow, fly into the teeth of the danger, watch the treeline, and hold the line until everyone comes home. It was, and still is, the hardest seat in the sky - protecting the life of a brother on the ground at any cost, even your own. CSAR is a ballzy lot!

HOLY COW. Watch this insane close-up video of U.S. strikes absolutely leveling the B1 Bridge in Karaj, Iran. Whoever was filming that is lucky they can still hear anything if they even survived the blast.

Does the @nytimes know what NATO stands for?

Let me show you how this works: It’s Friday morning. You’re in America. Coffee in hand. Half-awake. Scrolling. A headline hits you: “America/Israel bombs residential building, 20 civilians killed, including 5 children.” (These numbers are imaginary) Your stomach drops. You glance at your kid. Or think about your nieces and nephews. Now you’re not just reading anymore, you’re feeling anger, rage, disgust. By the time you get to work, the story has already settled in your mind as truth. At lunch, you bring it up. Your coworkers nod. Of course they do. Why wouldn’t they? It sounds real. Now five more people carry that same anger. They go home. They repeat it. To friends. To family. Online. Just like that, one headline becomes thousands of convictions. But here is what never made it into that headline what you did not see, what no one bothered to check: It wasn’t America. It wasn’t Israel. It was a failed missile fired by the IRGC that fell on its own people. And by the time the truth shows up, if it ever does, the damage is already done. This is what an information war looks like in real time.

“If you kill enough of them, they stop fighting.” - General Curtis LeMay

@Osinttechnical @Caucasuswar Hose those fickers.

Footage of Iranian police firing small arms at a pair of USAF HH-60Ws searching for the downed F-15E crew earlier today.

Pro-Tip: If they got 1 shootdown out of 20,000 sorties, America and Israel are the greatest military force in human history.

Pictured: Orion – 30,000 miles above Earth on the Artemis II mission – separating from the rocket's upper stage. Anduril now has over 400 telescopes around the globe. Advanced space sensing software provides real-time focal plane processing to identify & track objects. Think Sentry Tower software, but for space.

NASA should be extremely embarrassed at how much better Everyday Astronaut's coverage of the launch was compared to theirs.

@sacbee_news Bad news for Fartwell.

Victor Glover absolutely SCHOOLS a woke reporter trying to get a DEI answer out of him.. “I hope one day we can look at this as ‘human history’ — not black history or women’s history..” 👏👏

Calling Bruce Springsteen a "dried up prune" is hilarious in itself, but the fact that Trump fired this gold out at 4:58 AM is killing me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@cptbananas @HQNewsNow Imagine posting something this stupid.

@HQNewsNow Spot on facts from Meryl about the verbiage contained in the unconstitutional ‘SAVE’ act. Imagine living in a rural part of the states, as a married woman you have to go hours out of your way to get an updated/new Birth Certificate to match your married name on your ID. Insane.

Meryl Streep: The SAVE America Act, if that passes, all the married women that have changed their names are going have to go to the registrar and prove who they are. Otherwise, when you get to the voting booth in November, you might be disqualified, because your name on your birth certificate doesn't match the name on the voting rolls. I think that women need to be heard

@sacbee_news Every functioning adult has a government issued ID

The SAVE Act is not about voter ID — it’s about voter suppression | Opinion sacbee.com/opinion/op-ed/…
