Just seems like an appropriate quote given some of the news of late.

Carrick Rangers FC wishes to place on record our sincere thanks to the Cliftonville supporters and medics who attended to the CRFC fan who took unwell on the Shore Road after Tuesday’s Shield Final. He is now stable and recovering in hospital and sends thanks to all who helped

Interested in my previous role? jobs.dayforcehcm.com/en-US/iaffhq/C… Advocating for fire fighters means more than showing up. It is building policy, moving legislation, and pushing IAFF priorities through Congress and the Administration to protect those who protect others. #IAFF #FireFighters #PublicSafety #GovernmentAffairs #FederalPolicy

From DC, Columbus, and Little Rock, we all made to Cincinnati for the weekend, may as well catch the @FCCincinnati match.

I remember working on this when it passed it 2017. To see cities fighting these claims when sick fire fighters need the support the most is disappointing and gross. It is the exact problem that passing the law was intended to stop. news5cleveland.com/news/local-new…

After six months of intense training, 51 recruits became the newest members of the Cincinnati Fire Department. Among them were 10 women, marking the largest number of female graduates in a single recruit class in the organization's history. wcpo.com/news/local-new…

Nathan’s July 4 Hot Dog Eating Contest: The Grossest Ten Minutes in Sports.

@Avis is it normal to wait over 45 minutes in line (and counting) to pick up a car at DTW?

At the @WatfordFC match and I have never seen poorer officiating. This guy has lost all control of the game. Is it possible to relegate an official? #watford #eflchampionship

@OliviaRayTV @WLWT Who is the second choice? Just get Thad Matta from Butler (again ) and complete the cycle.

I’m told Chris Mack is the “top choice” for Xavier AD Greg Christopher. NCAA transfer portal officially opens on Monday - X is acting quickly to replace Sean Miller. #Xavier | @WLWT

Some saw an oyster. Others saw something unexpected. We see an opportunity to turn viral laughs into positive impact.   In celebration of Women’s History Month, 10% of all Oyster Catchers merch sales will support @IamCervivor. hubs.ly/Q03cXJdk0   #GoBaysox #MerchForGood

Removing TSA workers’ collective bargaining rights is union busting. Period. apnews.com/article/collec…

Amid a growing push to eliminate DEI programs and all activities relating to Black History Month, it is more critical than ever to acknowledge the accomplishments and contributions Black people have made in our nation.

It’s an honor to be at the Capitol for the inauguration of the 47th president, @realDonaldTrump. The @IAFFofficial looks forward to working with the new administration to improve the lives of America’s firefighters, emergency medical workers, and their families.

As governor of Georgia, Jimmy Carter signed Title 25, granting fire fighters in the state the right to collectively bargain with their municipalities. His signature in 1971 gave @IAFFofficial members a better, more secure future today. May he rest in peace.

We should all aspire to be like Jimmy Carter, and outlive people writing our obituary

🔥 WHAT THEY’RE SAYING After the Senate voted to repeal WEP/GPO last week, Republicans & Democrats on Capitol Hill have been praising the legislation as a historic moment for retired #firefighters & other public employees. See what they’re saying ⬇️ iaff.org/news/what-they…
