Trump: Mr. Kroger. You have stores in Washington. You see a big difference? Kroger CEO Greg Foran: We do. Trump: You said the right thing. That would have been the end of Kroger.

@sculptorguy8 If anything this shares awareness of the importance of routine exams. I think that’s always a consideration with these announcements.

Vanessa Trump — girlfriend of golf legend Tiger Woods — shared today that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer at age 48. In her Instagram statement, she wrote: “I’ve recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. While this isn’t news anyone expects, I’m working closely with my medical team on a treatment plan.” She thanked her doctors and asked for privacy as she focuses on recovery with her family and children by her side. Sending Vanessa strength, healing, and positive thoughts during this fight. Early detection is so important — a reminder for everyone to stay on top of health screenings. ❤️ (Video: AI)

I told my wife that the #TucciInItaly series was going to be the death of me. Then I made spinach and ricotta ravioli in brown butter sauce with torn prosciutto and dressed arugula for dinner.

This morning the Inspector General for the Federal Reserve has been asked to scrutinize the building costs overruns – in the billions of dollars – that have been borne by taxpayers. The IG has the authority to hold the Federal Reserve accountable to American taxpayers. I expect a comprehensive report in short order and am confident the outcome will assist in resolving, once and for all, the questions that led this office to issue subpoenas. Accordingly, I have directed my office to close our investigation as the IG undertakes this inquiry. Note well, however, that I will not hesitate to restart a criminal investigation should the facts warrant doing so.

@RobertJCosta94 @Ruminations01 @TheIntelFrog It would be very possible for an adversary to want to and likely find bets made by active duty spec ops guys... Imagine if Russia or China had warned the Venezuelans in advance or sent extra manpads etc. Its just a slippery slope

If the economy keeps roaring, inflation stays tamed, and America-first policies deliver (no new wars, strong military, opportunity for working families), turnout will favor the side that actually governs for citizens—not the party of open borders, identity politics, and government overreach. Worried Republicans should focus on delivering wins, not doom-scrolling polls. History shows momentum can shift fast when people see their paychecks and safety improve. 2026 is about results, not fearmongering.”

Here's an excerpt from the article I wrote, and a couple of my photos: The rescue teams are nonchalant about the threats they face. Almost all are veterans of previous combat deployments, and they display no visible evidence of fear or stress. In fact, despite what is at stake, the mood at this barebones base is relaxed. The troops spend their days in workout shorts, T-shirts, baseball caps and flip-flops. Some are clean-shaven; some have a deployment moustache. Their personal lockers in the ready room are filled with piles of body armor, weapons, ammunition and protein powder. Soldiers who have earned some of the military’s highest awards for combat valor blend into the mix with no special treatment or distinction. They bristle with annoyed humility when their medals are mentioned, claiming their heroic acts were “blown way out of proportion.” Combat experience is the norm, not the exception. Out of 11 special operators deployed to this remote base in Iraq, only one has never deployed as a rescue operator. When it’s time for a mission, even if just for training, the laid-back attitudes disappear. They still joke and act calm, but their body language is purposeful. Their movements are a replay of skills practiced thousands of times and deeply ingrained by the stress of training and combat. The rescuers wear their uniforms and kit in individualized, unique ways, based on personal preferences honed during training and combat, as well as expressions of their personalities. They have written their blood type in permanent marker on their helmets and have it stitched on name patches. They wear their harnesses and have carabiners arranged in the most efficient ways to avoid any fumbling or unnecessary movements. Some wear shoulder patches with their home state’s flag; others sport American flag bandanas. They all have their sleeves rolled up. Time between missions is spent working out, reading, or keeping up to date on an eclectic professional skillset, including weekly briefings on emergency medical care and going out to the range to shoot. There is usually a chance to jump on a helicopter for a weekly training mission. The special operators live like a tribe. They eat together, hang out together, and treat outsiders with polite indifference. Years of intense training followed by years of shared combat experiences have forged an unbending faith in one another and a sense of brotherhood. The resulting condition is a demeanor of complete ease and confidence, and a laid-back attitude to the deadly serious threats faced on every flight outside the wire. At any moment, these special operators know, they could be called on to fly hundreds of miles into enemy territory to rescue a downed pilot. “We’re hanging it out there,” a pararescueman said.

Back in the summer of 2015, during the air campaign against ISIS, I visited a group of U.S. Air Force pararescuemen and combat rescue officers at their base in northern Iraq. They were on call 24/7, ready within 15 minutes to rescue downed U.S. or coalition pilots in northern Iraq and Syria. These guys were the best of the best. Brave beyond measure. To cut down on rescue times they often pre-positioned their helos at landing sites deep within ISIS territory. “We take fire every time we go out,” one combat rescue officer told me. He added: “We are a reactive force but there are things we can do to lean forward to be able to be more effective. We have to get close if you want us to have a chance.” These guys weren't used to having a journalist around. But they let me visit with one caveat. Now that they had a real, live (albeit former) U.S. Air Force pilot on hand, they decided to use me for some hands-on training. They deposited me, signaling device in hand, at the end of an old runway and swept in with their helicopter to simulate a rescue. Then they did it again and again. I got a few rides up the hoist that day. Loved every minute of it. When I was deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan as an Air Force pilot, I just took it for granted that there was a group of elite badasses somewhere out there ready to come rescue me if I went down in enemy territory. I'm grateful I got to see these guys in action from ground level, for I realized how fortunate I truly was. Events over the past day in Iran have rekindled those memories from a decade ago in Iraq, and reminded me of the nonrepayable debt that every American combat pilot has for those brave operators who are always ready to risk their lives so that we may live. A few photos below of that "training day" in Iraq in 2015. I'm the dude in the black shirt.
