The Senate to now lose an exceptionally brilliant and creative mind, an MD who chairs healthcare, and a person of character. Bill Cassidy’s departure is a loss for the country.

Spirit customers today may have a difficult time seeing how the blocking of a merger to save the airline was what Elizabeth Warren called "a Biden win for flyers!" Rather than "fewer flights and higher fares" cited by Warren at the time, they now have no flights and no jobs...

@fedex @FedExForum Is this any way for a delivery to be handled? Less than 1 foot from the door, too much trouble to come down the driveway and leave on the porch? One top of plants, as well. This is really just not the way to do business. Do Better!

@BoCamaro Traveled it a lot generally hitting late in day coming from Birmingham, got smart and went north through Chattanooga. It’s bad enough, but not that hellish ride.

I have no idea how the entire area around Atlanta gets anything done. The traffic here is just absolutely insane at all times. Worst I have ever seen.

So, Michigan is good. Really good. They would have beaten us without the assist from the refs, and I am not blaming the loss on the refs, but they had a huge impact. That being said, that blue bunch is a bunch of cocky a..holes and I’m hoping they get out next game.

I've been holding back on this, but I'm just gonna let loose... So many of these "protestors" here in Asheville NC have had their lives DRAMATICALLY improved by President Trump. Trump's FEMA resolved 80% of ALL open Hurricane Helene cases Biden left sitting 116 days... in 5 DAYS. Trump's DOT gave nearly $2 BILLION to fix roads and bridges in WNC, which is the largest Emergency Relief allocation in federal highway history. Trump's DOT reopened I-40 in 5 months. Everyone said it would take years. Trump's HUD approved $1.4 billion for Helene housing recovery so fast that even Democrat Governor Josh Stein publicly thanked him for it. Trump's USDA delivered $221 million directly to WNC farmers who lost everything. Trump gave NC 6 full months of 100% federal cost coverage — one of the longest in FEMA history. The same people driving on rebuilt roads, drinking clean water, living the comeback... are out here protesting the man who made most of it happen. JUST GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE!!! It's not that hard. He knew you hated him before the storm. He knew that when he landed in Asheville. And guess what? HE SHOWED UP AND HELPED YOU ANYWAYS!!!!!! And today you grabbed your little sign and costumes, got in your little Subaru, you drove on those rebuilt roads, over those rebuilt bridges, passed rebuilt houses and rebuilt parks, to protest a man who helped your city. You look stupid, out of touch, and insanely ungrateful.

"There is a version of this story that is easy to romanticize. A famous man stays loyal to his wife. People applaud. The end. But the real version is much harder, much quieter, and far more honest than that. Jay Leno, 75, spent more than two decades as one of the most recognized faces on American television, hosting The Tonight Show night after night for millions of viewers. His wife, Mavis, stood beside him throughout all of it — not as a background figure, but as a woman of genuine accomplishment in her own right. She was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for her advocacy work supporting women living under Taliban rule in Afghanistan. She was fiercely independent, deeply curious, and someone who loved to travel and explore the world. Then, in 2024, Jay filed for conservatorship over her estate. The reason was that Mavis had been diagnosed with advanced dementia and was progressively losing capacity and orientation. Their life changed completely. The restaurants they once visited together are now off the menu. The travel Mavis always loved is no longer possible. The conversations they used to have in the evenings have narrowed and shifted in ways that are hard to fully explain to someone who has not lived it. Dementia does not just take memory. It slowly changes the shape of every moment two people share. Jay has spoken publicly about the hardest part of the journey, and it is not what most people would expect. For years, every single morning, Mavis would wake up believing she had just received news that her mother had died. She experienced that grief fresh, as if hearing it for the first time, every day. Her mother went through that process of dying over and over again, for about three years. Each time, Mavis cried. Each time, Jay held her through it. He described it as truly tricky, and genuinely hard. But he did not leave. He rearranged his life around her needs. He only takes work that allows him to be home the same day or at most one night away. He comes home every evening and cooks her dinner. They watch television together, animal shows and travel documentaries on YouTube since real travel is no longer an option. When he carries her to the bathroom, he has a name for it. He calls it Jay and Mavis at the prom, the two of them dancing back and forth down the hallway, and she thinks it is funny. She still laughs. He still makes her laugh on purpose, every single day. She still knows who he is. She looks at him and smiles. She tells him she loves him. When someone asked Jay if he was going to get a girlfriend now, he was genuinely surprised by the question. He told them he already had one. He was married. Forty-five years. That was not something he considered walking away from. What he said next is the part that has stayed with people. He said that when you get married, you take vows. You say for better or worse. And most people, he noted, never really expect to be called upon to actually act on those words. They say them and hope the worse never arrives. For Jay, it arrived. And he is passing the test. He has said he hopes his situation draws attention not just to his own story, but to the 50 or 60 million people in America who are quietly doing the same thing for a parent, a spouse, a sibling, and doing it completely without recognition. Nobody sees them. Nobody is interviewing them. They are just showing up every single day for someone who needs them, because that is what love actually looks like when it is no longer a feeling but a choice you make again every morning. Jay Leno still makes his wife laugh. She still has the fire, he says. She still growls at the television when something offends her. She still smiles when he walks into the room. For better or worse is not a promise you make on a beautiful day in a beautiful place with everyone watching. It is what you do on a Tuesday evening when you carry the person you love to the bathroom and call it the prom, just to make her smile. That is the whole story." Via @MrPitbull07

WHEN THAT KNOCK COMES ON THE DOOR, time stands still. When you open the door and see the uniforms, the world goes silent. They begin with, “We regret to inform you…” Words that belong in news reports and history books - not in your foyer. You think of your child as they were before the uniform. The scraped knees. The school pictures. The laughter at the dinner table. You remember that last hug or phone call before deployment - you wish it had been longer. You want to ask a thousand questions at once. How? Where? Were they alone? But your voice doesn’t work. After they leave, the house feels unbearably quiet. Every photo on the wall now carries a weight. Every memory feels sharper. The holidays will never feel the same and the phone will never ring with their voice again. And yet, beneath the grief, pride tangled with heartbreak. Your son. Your daughter. Brave enough to serve, loved beyond measure. The enduring pride of a parent who raised a hero🇺🇸❤️🙏
