He thinks O’Malley can take the belt off Petr Yan and McMillen will take the featherweight belt sometime next year. (via @jakenoecker / @Home_of_Fight)

@joeroganhq MAKE HGH guts GREAT AGAIN

Joe Rogan shows Theo Von a clip of him getting in the ice tub. Theo Von: "You look like one of those turkeys that they tie up and it gets all lined up."

Without cheating... who is this?🤔

@zero_lessons Pics looks almost identical to desert one pics from years ago. It’s amazing they haven’t learned anything from all these past “endeavors”

Last night & yesterday was a failed US operation. This mission will be remembered as a dramatic, daring and brave ‘rescue’ operation. Medals will be handed out. Movies and books will follow. #warisaracket

@thecinelost Watching it now actually

Do you remember this series?

@Ne_pas_couvrir Love watching old Buckley shows . GREAT INTERVIEWS

Here’s Ben Stein in 1979 describing television as an engine of cultural demoralization. He argues that a small clique of producers and writers pushed a left-coded inversion of reality onto the public. They despised traditional power centers and hated figures like Buckley. They propagandized the nation into accepting a fake world where businessmen are villains, criminals are the good-guys, small towns are sinister, military officers are proto-fascists, and work barely exists.

@BestMovieMom LC 🔥

This Scooby Doo scene never made it into the final cut because it was considered too frightening. Early test audiences were genuinely unsettled by it. The sequence showed a possessed Velma hunting Daphne’s soul, pushing the tone far darker than expected.

@travelingflying Idk how or why this guy got famous and gets the traction he does. To be kind, he’s way over his head historically in nearly everything he talks about. Steaming horseshit

“Ireland didn’t colonize anybody; they were a colony. They suffered terribly. They were willing to be brutalized, occupied, starved, all of these things for centuries to defend their little slice of the world, and yet Ireland is on track to be a minority Irish by 2070. I don’t like that. People think diversity means every place in the planet should look like Jackson Heights in NYC, but that’s not diversity at all. Diversity is that when I go to Ireland, it’s Irish.”

@flojotube @realstewpeters Lol yeah no shite. It’s where the O&I course is for special forces too

I think Ft Huachuca is far more important than we all know. I think it's the hub national hub for all SpecOps toys and tradecraft where the cutting edge is honed and perfected and the leaders come to see how well it all works before go time. We already know its where both operator and civilian are trained to play covert roles and/or undergo god knows what behavioral manipulation processes. We also know that people from ALL REACHES totally freaked when Ft Huachuca was in the spotlight... From Alex Jones to random obscure internet voices alike, it was all hands on deck to convince the world that nothing goes on there and we are insane if we believe otherwise. So whatever goes on there, its massive.

WHAT ARE THE ODDS?! Pete Hegseth’s plane was at Fort Huachuca on 9-8-25, when Mitch Snow says he saw Erika Kirk. THEN—Pete Hegseth’s plane flew over the AES Explosives Plant the day it blew up, on Oct 10, 2025, after being at Huachuca AGAIN. Probably nothing.

One of my favorite stories… It’s even caught on film by a CBS camera 🎥 This is courtesy of @KreggJorgenson 25 March 1970 our Apache Troop, 1st of the 9th CAV 'Blues' Recon platoon got a mission briefing that we were going back up to the Dog's Head region of Tay Ninh Province to scout out a jungle area. That morning a CBS News crew of Ricard Threldkel, Skip Brown (cameraman), and a Vietnamese sound man had permission from someone way higher up to join us. We loaded into three outbound Apache Troop Huey's and flew north toward the Dog's Head and the Cambodian border where 6 days earlier we were involved with an all-day fire fight with the 272nd VC/NVA regiment where four of us were wounded. I only received a concussion and some minor shell fragment wounds while my Ranger buddy, Ed Beal had an Ak-47 round slice across his head in what he shrugged off as a 'grazing' wound, although it bled like a waterfall. Anyway, because he wasn't bowing out of the mission, neither was I. Needless to say, the entire platoon was armed to the proverbial teeth in the very likely possibility we'd encounter elements of the enemy Regiment again. When the three Huey's touched down in a natural clearing near the targeted site Ed and I and Sgt. Hue took a look around and discovered numerous enemy bootprints, gun positions, and bunkers. After Ed suggested a possibility that I agreed to, we went to our Platoon Leader Jack Hugele and asked if we two could do a stay behind by hiding just inside the line of travel the platoon would take in order to ambush anyone who'd be tracking the platoon. Jack being wiser than we were, said he wanted to keep the platoon together, so we returned to our squads as Dennis Henderson took point. As the platoon worked our way closer to the border, less than a mile away, Dennis had spotted more enemy fighting positions and checked them out. After a good hour of that he came over and asked if I would take over on Point as he felt he was missing other fighting positions. I agreed and took over. Moving out again the Platoon got the call to move back to the pickup zone. Paralleling the trail we'd approached from I took another thin route back. On the way I looked over at the trail we had previously used and saw something out of the ordinary. An NVA bootprint was crisscrossing one of ours. I moved in closer to check it out and saw an NVA soldier less than 10 feet away. He screamed and fired and I returned fire. We both went down and a firefight soon followed. I was shot through both thighs and managed to crawl behind a big tree thanks to the cover fore of Sgt. Hue. Our medic, Doc Delvalle raced up to rebandage my wound as my small bandage wasn't big enough for the injuries and I had to use my shirt to tie off the wound. Doc wanted to haul me back, I said, no because incoming rounds were still a thing, and because he'd given me a shot of morphine, I wasn't feeling any pain and illogically figured I could run. He objected and I said I could do it. Doc took off and when I got up to run my legs didn't work and I fell face first into the dirt. Dennis Henderson scooped me up and hauled me back to the Platoon leader. Long story short the CBS news people got their film, with one minor thing wrong. I didn't get a one way ticket out of the war. I was back to Apache Troop a month and change later. I was surrounded by some great people who took great care of me, Lt. Jack Hugele, Jim Braun, Doc DelValle, Ed Beal, Sgt. Hue, Dennis Henderson, Tony Cortez, Kenny May, and so many others who made all the difference then on that no name mission in the Dog's Head on 25 March 1970. Six leg operations later I appreciate everyone of them even more today. -Kregg Interview -youtube.com/live/OvP4q7U5V… Ed Beal Interview - youtube.com/live/snQCu2HQG…

@4GrahamWilliams @LewisWetzel5 Couldn’t agree more

@TheReconCast @LewisWetzel5 He deserves it.

Dude accidentally got into a road rage altercation with Jon Jones 😳💀 “I was almost hit 3 times so I flipped him off. He stopped in the middle of the road, backed up, and came into the same parking lot. I didn't know who it was when I flipped him off.” (via bryanbeltran06/IG)

@DavidLambertArt I learned this on the sopranos

Iron Eyes Cody was born 122 years ago today. His real name was Espera Oscar de Corti & he was Sicilian, not Indigenous

@LewisWetzel5 Damn good spot! I thought he got it posthumously. Thanks for that catch

@TheReconCast Are you sure about that MoH?

@AaronTh56004740 Plane Behind them I’d imagine and it’s from a A-1 pilot I know. He didn’t have the particulars on who took it, he just had it and others in his collection he gave me access to

@TheReconCast How and who took that? Gorgeous photo.

@AnnieJacobsen @26thYankee Absolutely a legend !! Thank you for sharing so much information about him in your books Annie

Hard to believe Billy Waugh died three years ago. Started as a source, became a friend. One day, you will see SURPRISE, KILL, VANISH on the screen and it will blow your mind.

It’s his entire view point has changed to the point of him lying about things he spoke about years ago , show being turned into a politico dumping ground like all these vet bro channels and his personality has become unbearable since pre covid . Along with him being the most annoying person on the UFC broadcast

@TheReconCast @joerogan Why?

Honestly I just remembered it wrong. I was elk hunting when Jimmy Kimmel was getting people angry at him for joking about the assassination and blaming it on MAGA. I would never “lie” about that. I just had a dumb memory moment.

@StarchyKid @joerogan Eat me

@TheReconCast @joerogan Stick to SF wannabe content.

I’m not going through it. It’s well documented what she did while 1st lady here and overseas. It’s why her and JFK have more memorials to them than any other president and 1st lady in history . Live up to here being a dynamo . Kinda sounds like you are mixing them up with our current president

@TheReconCast @HistoryUnd Live up to what exactly? Her husband treated her like a door mat for the world to see. He slept with everyone and had no respect for her.
