🚨 Jasmine Crockett completely lost it in a hearing. She couldn’t hold it together for even five minutes. Her behavior left everyone in the room speechless. I’m not sure anyone epitomizes DEI affirmative action culture more than Rep. Jasmine Crockett or Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. This is what happens when identity politics is prioritized over competence and basic decorum What do you think? 👇 #JasmineCrockett #DEI #KetanjiBrownJackson

🚨 Do you understand what happened in the last 24 hours at the White House checkpoint.. > a 21-year-old named Nasire Best walked up to the security post at 17th St and Pennsylvania Ave, pulled a gun from a bag, and opened fire on Secret Service officers.. > this was not his first time.. he had attempted to infiltrate the White House MULTIPLE times in 2025.. Secret Service documented every single encounter.. > after those prior attempts, a court issued a formal stay-away order.. Best was legally barred from approaching the White House.. > he came back anyway.. with a weapon.. > officers returned fire.. Best is now at the coroner's office.. one bystander was wounded in the crossfire.. > reports note he had documented mental health issues and claimed to be the incarnation of Jesus Christ.. authorities were aware of this.. > the White House was briefly locked down.. President Trump was unaffected inside.. > no foreign ties.. no political coordination.. just a man who had been caught, documented, restricted, and released.. repeatedly.. until the pattern turned lethal.. every single institution that touched this case knew his name.. knew his history.. knew the order was in place.. all of it.. and he still made it back to that checkpoint.. if you're not following me you're finding out about this 48 hours late from someone who read my post.. it's only getting crazier from here..

I posted this photo of legendary cowboy Thomas Blasingame, who died while cowboying at he age of 91 once before, but now I have the fantastic AP obituary that was written about him. From 1989: CLARENDON, Texas -- A man believed to have been the oldest working cowboy in Texas died the way he wanted, stretched out in the prairie grass with his boots on, friends said. Thomas Everett Blasingame, 91, was found lying on his back Wednesday by fellow cowhands at the JA Cattle Co. ranch near Clarendon in the Texas Panhandle. His saddled horse was standing nearby. 'If he had written it down on paper, he wouldn't have changed a word,' said Buster McLaury, the cattle foreman on the ranch. About 400 people attended graveside services Saturday at the JA Cattle Co. cemetery near Clarendon. The last burial in the cemetery had been in 1899. Johnny Farrar, the ranch's business manager, said Blasingame was riding a young horse he was training just before his death. 'He must have known he was in trouble, dismounted and just laid down and died,' Farrar said. 'There were no bruises or scratches, so he wasn't bucked off.' Blasingame's son, Thomas E. Blasingame Jr. of Hereford, said the cowboy was laid to rest during a traditional 'cowboy funeral,' with the hearse accompanied to the graveyard by Blasingame's riderless horse and cowboys on horseback. There were lots of people there,' the younger Blasingame said. 'It was a pretty pleasant day. Things went real well.' Blasingame was born in Waxahachie on Feb. 2, 1898, and was a cowboy all his life. He came to the JA Cattle Co. in 1918, then left two years later to go to Southern California, New Mexico and Arizona. He returned in 1934 and remained at the ranch until his death. '(He) had chosen to be a cowboy when he was a little kid,' said Thomas Blasingame Jr. 'The reason he lived so long was because he did what he did for his entire life.' Farrar said Blasingame's job was to look after the cattle and horses, the ranch's fence and windmill. He said Blasingame displayed outstanding qualities for a cowboy of any age. 'It was exceptional for him at age 91, because he performed the job just as all other cowboys do,' Farrar said. Blasingame married his wife, Eleanor, when he was 35. He lived during the week at the Campbell Creek Camp in Palo Duro Canyon, 9 miles south of ranch headquarters. The camp had no electricity or telephone, and his wife lived in nearby Claude. 'He was a good, kind man to everyone,' Eleanor Blasingame said. 'When he died, it was the first time I've ever seen a bunch of cowboys just crying. They were all devastated by his death.'" I told y'all it was a fabulous obituary!

@AlexTran677026 I was 10 years old when this movie came out in 1970. Parents took me to the Trail Drive in Theater in Bowie Texas to see it. One of my fondest memories.

You probably know him from the movie Hacksaw Ridge. The real story is even more extraordinary than the film. A 26 year old American medic refused to carry a weapon into combat on Okinawa in 1945. Alone under enemy fire he lowered 75 wounded American soldiers down a 400 foot cliff face one by one. This is the story of Desmond Doss..🧵1/5

Here's my crazy thought for the day: I think the Golden Cheeked Warbler should replace the mockingbird as the official Texas state bird. I know, I know ... mockingbirds are awesome, but hear me out: 1) Mockingbirds are the official state bird of not only Texas but also Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Florida. 2) The Golden Cheeked Warbler is the only bird species that is endemic to Texas. That means it nests only here ... not in any other state or Mexico. Every other species of birds that nests in Texas also nests someplace else. 3) The mockingbird is a gray, non-descript bird. The golden-cheeked warbler? See photo. 4) Golden-cheeked warblers don't spend half the day sitting on a fencepost yelling at cats, as a mockingbird is doing outside my window at this very moment. 😀

If you behaved at your workplace like Democrats behave in the Minnesota House, you'd be fired immediately. Republicans endure harassment and threats from our co-workers, then share space with them again the next day. Here's the truth the media has downplayed.

22 seconds. That is how long it took for a 23 year old staff sergeant from Alabama to save the lives of his entire B-29 crew on a mission to Japan in 1945. He had to carry a burning phosphorus bomb 25 feet through the aircraft. He held it against his body while it burned through to the bone. This is the story of Red Erwin...🧵1/5

🧵 5/5 The City of Los Angeles diverted to the recently captured island of Iwo Jima. The crew extinguished what was left of Red Erwin's burning uniform. The medics at the field hospital examined him and did not believe he would survive. He was conscious the entire time. He only asked about his crew. General Curtis LeMay heard what had happened. He wanted Red to receive the Medal of Honor before he died. The only available Medal of Honor in the entire Pacific Theater was in a display case at US Army headquarters in Hawaii. LeMay sent a B-29 crew to retrieve it. They arrived at the office and found the commanding general was not there. They broke open the display case and took the medal. On April 19 1945, exactly one week after the incident, Major General Willis Hale pinned the Medal of Honor on Red Erwin's bandaged chest in a hospital bed on Guam after LeMay pushed for the award to be rushed. LeMay said: "Your effort to save the lives of your fellow airmen is the most extraordinary kind of heroism I know." General Hap Arnold wrote that the act was "one of the bravest in the records of the war." Red Erwin did not die. He spent 30 months in military hospitals. He underwent 41 surgical procedures. The phosphorus particles in his body continued smoldering for months. He lost an eye, an ear, his nose, and several fingers. Doctors eventually rebuilt his face. They restored his sight in one eye. He regained the use of his left arm. He was discharged in October 1947. He went home to Alabama. He raised four children with Betty. He worked for the next 37 years as a benefits counselor for the Department of Veterans Affairs in Birmingham, helping other wounded American servicemen receive their care. He died on January 16 2002 at the age of 80. He was the only B-29 crew member in the entire Second World War to receive the Medal of Honor. I post a story like this every single day. Most people never see them. Follow so you don't miss the next one.
