@YWNReporter Steven Segal was a “chef” in under siege. 🧀

🚨 DEVELOPING: Iranian media is circulating images of ID cards and documents allegedly left behind by U.S. forces during the dramatic rescue of a downed American pilot. The documents are being linked online to “Amanda M. Ryder” — but early analysis raises major doubts about that claim. Officials have been referring to the rescued pilot as a “Colonel,” while the ID shown does not match that rank. In addition, the individual appears to be a maintenance technician — a role considered highly unlikely to be part of a high-risk rescue mission. Sources reviewing the materials say the items were likely recovered from U.S. aircraft destroyed during the operation — reportedly 2 C-130 planes and 3 helicopters — rather than belonging to the rescued airman. Adding to the mystery, one of the documents includes an Israeli B2 entry permit, typically issued for tourism or business purposes. Bottom line: The viral claim about the pilot’s identity appears inconsistent with the known details — and the story behind these documents is only getting more complicated.

@glennbeck The propaganda shift is astounding. There must be a bloodbath in store for our sons.

A man behind enemy lines, stranded on a mountain, and they still went back for him. Because that’s what the American military does. No matter the odds or the risk, they go. This rescue mission is more than just a success story, it’s a reminder of who we are. We are still a country that fights for its own. Because as long as there are Americans willing to risk everything to bring one of their own home, there is still hope.

@Vishal_Songara @GregWAutry @HansMahncke Yall wuz kangs and sheit.

@GregWAutry @HansMahncke Before to that, someone In India already did that. But the World doesn’t know that because it wasn’t published that time.

The story behind the New York Times’ 1903 claim that human flight was between one and ten million years away is even worse than it looks. Once you understand the backstory, you realize that the New York Times story is not really about flight at all but about how elites and credentialed “experts” mistake their own failures for the boundaries of possibility. The New York Times did not dismiss the possibility of powered flight at random. There was a very specific reason behind it. At the time, America’s most prominent scientific authority, Smithsonian Secretary Samuel Langley, had been showered with large amounts of taxpayer funding to build an aircraft, the Langley Aerodrome. Despite all the money, institutional backing, and elite prestige, Langley and his team could not get it to fly, culminating in a series of very public failures, the last on December 8, 1903. So when the New York Times declared that flight was millions of years away, what it was really saying was that if the most credentialed and well-funded “experts” cannot do it, then it cannot be done. A mere nine days later, the elites’ proclamation of impossibility lay in ruins. Two totally unknown bicycle mechanics from Ohio achieved the first powered flight using improvised parts, a few hundred dollars of their own money, and sheer persistence. The story of flight is, at its core, a story of the triumph of American individualism over elite credentialism. The fact that it was the New York Times that inadvertently delivered the proof is the most fitting conclusion imaginable.

@SydneyLWatson Central Washington state. Dead is the culture that is now “cinco de mayo” festivals. Year round.

It's really hard for people who don't live around illegals and mass immigration to understand why the rest of us hate it so fucking much. Of course, from your whitest of white neighbourhood in Vermont, it's difficult to see why those of us in Texas (and other places) are so angry. You can't appreciate how shit it all is until you experience it day in and day out.

@SGTWipper1Each Heeeyyyy! I’m Mr 15 ft Tiger shark at 70 feet deep.

Introduce yourself AS what almost killed you… “Hi, I’m myself.”

@AmmoLand Ah yes, more legislation from unelected bureaucrats.

@APBear76 I love it. Super excited to see the CGI videos.

Does anyone else not really care about the Artemis II launch today? Don’t get me wrong, I love this kinda stuff, but I personally don’t care about a moon mission when we can’t even handle our own bs on earth.

@dmbkparker A cylinder style fan on a medium setting. The pitch is just right for me. iPhone has a white noise generator pre installed that helps when traveling but not as good as the fan.

Anybody have a good solution to turn off the tinnitus when trying to go to sleep? It even overpowers the CPAP.

@thehoffather I left. Took 3 employees and our families with us. Insignificant of course but not imaginary.

Meet Bryan Kirschner, another shill for Gov Bob Ferguson's income tax. He is an AI strategist at IBM who identifies as "Fair housing, tax justice, and health equity advocate. 1990s community policing reformer." He falsely claimed no one is leaving the state because of taxes

@GovBobFerguson All hail King Ferguson!!!

Today, we're celebrating a lot of wins thanks to the Millionaires' Tax. A win for working families, with 460,000 additional Washingtonians added to the Working Families Tax Credit, an annual check for between $335 and $1,330. A win for small businesses, with 138,000 seeing their B&O tax reduced or eliminated. A win for kids, with free school breakfast and lunch for every student and investments in affordable childcare. And a win for all Washingtonians, with no sales tax on over-the-counter drugs, hygiene products, and diapers.

@GovBobFerguson You tell em! King!

Important news for voting in Washington state: I recently signed 5 election-related bills, including to respond to federal efforts to access voter data. We established a state-level voting rights preclearance process for jurisdictions that have previously violated voting rights laws. We amended who can challenge a voter’s registration. We clarified the statute that information like a voter’s driver’s license number, Social Security number, or full birth date is confidential, and made unauthorized disclosure of private voter information a class C felony.  We strengthened coordination between elections offices and federally recognized Tribes. And we strengthened the Washington Voting Rights Act by clarifying how voting rights violations are addressed and resolved.

@SGTWipper1Each I got free tinnitus and TBI

Them: "It must be nice to get all that free stuff in the military." The free stuff: - 0400 wake-up calls - Mold in the barracks - "govt issued" bed that ruins your back - Boots that feel like bricks - Life lessons like "never volunteer" and "hurry up and wait"

@BravoKiloActual I served with a guy that got in on an ASVAB waiver. Not a sharp guy. Yeah Steve, talking about you. BUT years later he founded a business and became VERY successful. Some young men just haven’t finished developing until their late 20’s.

“Much of this is due to academic performance on the military’s SAT-style entrance test…” Bro if you can’t pass the ASVAB you are COOKED for LIFE; you’re literally too dumb to exist.

@mattvanswol @TonySeruga He is the wrong color. Thank you, drive through.

🚨#BREAKING: The ONLY Republican running for Mecklenburg County (Charlotte NC) District 1 has just dropped out of the race... ...AFTER NOT A SINGLE PERSON WAS ARRESTED FOR FIRING SHOTS AT HIS HOME WHILE HIS WIFE AND KIDS WERE INSIDE!!!!! Local police CONFIRMED the attack was targeted specifically at Aaron Marin. Bullet holes can be seen in trees, cars, mailbox, and his kid's basketball hoop. Marin's ENTIRE FAMILY was forced to leave their home and Aaron says they live in, "constant fear." He says his kids no longer even feel safe to play outside. CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN WHY ZERO MAINSTREAM MEDIA OUTLET COVERING THIS??????!!!!!! REPUBLICANS ARE LITERALLY BEING SHOT AT AND THERE IS SILENCE FROM THE MEDIA!!!!!! WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE?!!!!!!

@PacificLegal Yakima county ADJUSTED my acreage along the Yakima river. Official statement “ the high water mark means the property in 100yr floodplain is no longer your property “. AFTER I sold at a discount, Yak County RE-Adjusted the acreage to great benefit of new owners.

BREAKING: Washington State hit a multigenerational cattle ranch with a $267,540 penalty and a restoration order costing about $3.7 million — then told the owners they have no right to a jury trial. We filed suit to stop the State from stripping that constitutional guarantee.

@KIRO7Seattle Rookie numbers. How are Washingtontonians going to save the planet without some REAL pain?

WA gas prices hit second-highest in nation at $5+ per gallon, nearly 40% above national average kiro7.com/news/local/wa-…

@JohnStossel @sslivinski One of the top reasons I moved to Alabama. I built my home and one for my daughter. I paid $400 each for septic system permits. NOTHING MORE. When talking to the county before building. “Do I need permits or zoning? They replied “ it’s your land, do what you want”. Freedom!

A quarter of the price of a new home is due to regulations and permits. The process is “so convoluted,” explains economist @sslivinski, “It can take ... years to get simple permits.” That means fewer homes get built, and prices rise. Politicians should focus on that:

@beatnikdr1 It’s going to take a major catastrophe before the dems acquiesce their momentum. I fear that’s precisely what will happen.

I am deeply concerned for the future of Washington state. I cannot stop thinking that things are going to get very bad. A good majority of people I know have left or are planning to leave. It’s real.

@scott4wa It’s like Hawaii. Beautiful to visit. Then go home to freedom. In the south. 4 years a yankee, this week.

The only person/family I recommend move to Seattle is the one that wants to buy my house. They should hurry the fck up, so I can get out of here. Everyone else should stay far, far away from this dangerous dump.
