Rest in Heaven my brother!
Ambassador Mike Huckabee@GovMikeHuckabee

When I ran for President in 08, @chucknorris endorsed me & he & Gena traveled with @janethuckabee & me for over 4 months. Their Christian faith was authentic & deep as was their love for each other. His love of America was profound and borne out of a patriotism that was part of his upbringing & his military service. He was humble & kind. I'll never forget a visit we made to a Veterans Home in New Hampshire. Chuck & Gena graciously visited with every veteran, listening & caring. Most of these veterans idolized Chuck Norris. He & Gena were patient, warm, & compassionate. When we got in the vehicle after the visit, I looked over at them & they were both weeping having been touched by these aging US veterans & their stories. Chuck Norris took God seriously but never took himself too seriously. We often spent travel time sharing Chuck Norris jokes. We went to his ranch in Texas. We kept in touch after the campaign. His given name is Carlos, but it took a while to get used to using the name Gena & his mother called him because after all, he was CHUCK NORRIS! Got to know his wonderful mother who passed away in 2024. He was a guest multiple times on my TV show. When I was named Ambassador to Israel, he was thrilled. He was a strong friend of Israel & of @IsraeliPM Netanyahu. My heart is broken by his death. My condolences to Gena & his family. The legend may be gone, but the memories will never die. Thank you Chuck. "Well done, good & faithful servant!"

“TO EVERYTHING there is a season, and a time for every matter or purpose under heaven: […] A time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. [Luke 14:26.] […] He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men's hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. […] I know that whatever God does, it endures forever; nothing can be added to it nor anything taken from it. And God does it so that men will [reverently] fear Him [revere and worship Him, knowing that He is]. [Ps. 19:9; James 1:17.]” Ecclesiastes 3:1, 8, 11, 14 AMPC

“Victims of violent crime in California deserve to be protected by our laws, not placed in greater danger because those laws are written in a way that forces judges to release dangerous offenders back into our neighborhoods,” said District Attorney Dan Dow. “Right now, the mental health diversion statute ties the hands of judges, strips them of common-sense discretion, and allows individuals who commit serious and violent crimes—including domestic violence, home invasions, and assaults—to avoid accountability and reoffend. We must fix this law before another victim pays the ultimate price.” Mental health diversion under Penal Code section 1001.36 was intended to offer treatment instead of incarceration to individuals whose mental illness significantly contributed to their criminal behavior. However, court rulings and statutory limitations now require judges to grant diversion once certain criteria are met, even in serious and violent cases, leaving courts with very limited authority to deny diversion based on community safety, prior failures in treatment, or the absence of a viable treatment plan. When a defendant successfully completes diversion, the crime is removed from their record, erasing accountability and endangering victims, law enforcement, and the public if the person reoffends. Assembly Bill 46 would allow courts to consider whether or not a defendant poses a substantial and undue risk to the physical safety of others and whether the proposed treatment plan is clinically appropriate to address the mental health condition that contributed to the offense. “Diversion should be a carefully monitored path to treatment, not a loophole that gives dangerous offenders a free pass and leaves victims feeling abandoned by the system that promised to protect them,” Dow said. “As a concerned prosecutor and as President of the California District Attorneys Association, I am sounding the alarm: we cannot wait for another murder, another brutal domestic violence assault, or another devastating home invasion committed by someone who should never have been granted diversion in the first place,” Dow continued. “The Legislature has a moral obligation to act now and fix this statute so that judges can protect our communities and honor the rights and safety of crime victims.”

.@SECWAR “I’ll close with scripture, drawing strength from Psalm 144: ‘Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle. He is my loving God and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer, my shield, in whom I take refuge.’ May the Lord grant unyielding strength and refuge to our warriors; unbreakable protection to them and our homeland; and total victory over those who seek to harm them.  Amen.

@DanDow pulls back the curtain inside modern prosecutors’ offices. Compared to 10 years ago? The volume of electronic data may be 10 times higher — or more. That’s the reality of 21st-century law enforcement. More data. More complexity. Smarter tools required.

If this is true, it could be an illegal use of public funds for personal or political purposes and a crime under California law. Govt Code 8314

NEW: California taxpayers are paying for Kamala Harris' security detail for her international book tour. Dozens of CHP officers are assigned to it, sources tell me. State officials aren't saying much, her campaign isn't answering questions. Don't taxpayers deserve to know?
