If you care about America’s military, follow this guy. I am long retired from active duty, this gentleman is still serving. Bravery is not just in combat—sometimes bravery comes with just speaking out for what is right. This is what this amazing Army colonel does.

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐤—𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥—𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞?
As one of the few senior officers still active on X, I’ve been attacked, downgraded, and hit with whisper campaigns meant to soften what I’ve seen and said from the front seat of command.
I do it because I care. Deeply. Because I’m committed to authenticity and relentless about truth. Not for clicks or applause, but for one purpose: to build the lethality and warfighting edge our Army will need if the balloon goes up. And more importantly, to strengthen deterrence—so we never have to fight.
Peace comes through real, credible strength. Not dog-and-pony shows.
I’ve been “informed” my authenticity upsets people. Damn right it does. That’s the job. Our profession demands abrasiveness when softness gets Soldiers killed.
I’ve written the professional articles, recorded the podcasts, spoken at the symposiums. Observations from 55 NTC rotations, Blackhorse command, and hard lessons from the modern battlefield. They get filed away like every other rotational AAR—only for us to repeat the same mistakes and ignore the same gaps.

That’s why I stay in the fight here.
Our Army deserves leaders who prioritize winning over comfort. I’m all in on that mission.

Its hard to undersell just how large the demonstration in Belfast was today. It was one of the largest demonstrations i've ever seen in the city.

I wouldn’t be where I am today without the love and support that @MichelleObama has poured into me over the years. Her story — from her South Side roots to the White House and beyond — is a central part of the Obama Presidential Center.

🚨 BREAKING: Multiple NHS services have been told to not detain psychotic African and Caribbean people to lower their "over representation."
Valdo Calocane was one of these psychotic Africans who staff refused to detain because of his race. He went on to murder Barnaby Webber, Grace O'Malley-Kumar and Ian Coates in Nottingham.

Non mais qui avait remarqué ça ???
J’ai vu chacun des films des dizaines de fois, j’avais jamais remarqué.
C’est vraiment une trilogie à part quand même.

Yes, SPLC is a criminal organization
The DoJ announces that the SPLC paid klan members a monthly salary to stay in the KKK and recruit new members. That a non-profit would do this is sick and sad. Just what were they thinking?

Our very special guests! 🧁☕️
The Queen has hosted a tea party for children supported by Dreams and Wishes, a charity dedicated to helping seriously ill children and their families build precious memories.
🫖🥪 After travelling by horse-drawn carriage from The Royal Mews, the children sat down to sandwiches and cakes with Her Majesty at Clarence House.
The Queen’s Equerry, Major Treasure, also set the children to task with a treasure hunt… leading to the stash of chocolate coins hidden under the Grenadier Guards’ hats! 💂
Dreams and Wishes was established in 2011 and is entirely volunteer-run, with a dedicated team committed to making every child’s wish a reality.
