248 years ago this morning, the most famous American commando of the Revolutionary War took a musket ball through the body in a running fight at the edge of Mount Hope Bay. His name was Colonel William Barton, and ten months earlier he had pulled off one of the most audacious raids in American military history. On the night of July 9, 1777, Barton had picked 40 volunteers from his Rhode Island militia. He put them in five whaleboats. He rowed them out of Warwick Neck in the dark. He slipped past three British frigates that were anchored in Narragansett Bay specifically to keep American whaleboats from doing exactly what he was doing. He landed near the Portsmouth-Middletown line on the British-held island of Aquidneck. His target was a house called the Overing place, about a mile inland. Sleeping inside that house was Major General Richard Prescott, the British commander of all of Rhode Island. Prescott had spent the previous six months making himself the most hated occupier in the colonies, beating American prisoners with his cane, jailing civilians for trifles, generally behaving like he could not be touched. Barton's men subdued the sentries. They broke in the door. They dragged Prescott out of bed in his nightshirt, half dressed, and marched him barefoot to the boats. They rowed him back across the bay before the British navy knew anything was wrong. The Americans then traded Prescott back to the British in exchange for Major General Charles Lee, the second highest ranking officer in the entire Continental Army, who had himself been captured the previous December while still in his nightclothes. The Continental Congress promoted Barton to colonel. The British officer and diarist Frederick Mackenzie, who hated Americans on principle, wrote in his journal that the raid had been "executed in a masterly manner." Barton became, in the summer of 1777, the closest thing the American Revolution had to a celebrity special operator. Then, on the morning of May 25, 1778, the British came back across Mount Hope Bay in whaleboats. They had learned from Barton's own playbook. Five hundred British and Hessian troops under Lieutenant Colonel John Campbell of the 22nd Regiment had crossed in the dark to burn the Continental supplies stockpiled at Warren and Bristol. By dawn the powder magazine was a crater, the meetinghouse was rubble, 58 American boats were destroyed, and the militia was racing toward the smoke from every direction. Barton was one of the first officers to engage them. The skirmish that followed was small, ugly, and brief. The British were already retreating to their boats. Barton was hit in the body by a musket ball that lodged somewhere it could not be cut out. He fought through the rest of the morning. He survived. He never fully recovered. He never commanded troops in the field again. The Revolution's most spectacular raider was taken off the board by a raid that copied his own tactics, fought on the same water, in the same kind of boats, by the same kind of men. There is a word for that in literature. There is not really a word for it in war. Barton lived another 53 years. He died in Providence in 1831, having spent 14 of those years confined in Danville, Vermont, over a land judgment he refused on principle to pay, until the Marquis de Lafayette personally paid the debt during his 1825 farewell tour of America. Most Americans alive today have never heard his name. Who is the most important forgotten American of the Revolution?

🚨 NOW: Instead of following the original schedule to chopper to Trump National in Bedminster, NJ, President Trump has just stepped off Marine One to jump back on Air Force One en route to DC This was NOT part of the plan, which is causing a TON of speculation as to why 👀 As usual, 47 also showed his support for our Marines, presenting one a challenge coin. Truly a great Commander-in-Chief 🇺🇸

BREAKING: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump is now on the verge to attack Iran once again, per Axios, citing U.S. officials ‘Trump has grown increasingly frustrated in the past few days over the current state of negotiations with Iran and has raised the possibility of one final major military operation, after which he would unilaterally declare victory and end the war. A U.S. official briefed on the diplomatic efforts described the negotiations as ‘agonizing’, saying draft proposals are ‘going back and forth every day’ with little meaningful progress being made.’
