To the caregivers nobody checks on… The wife helping her vaccine injured husband get dressed. The husband lifting his disabled wife into bed every night. The parents caring for a medically complex child. The daughter looking after a parent with dementia. The son spending every weekend at the nursing home. The people who haven’t had a full day off in years. We see the patient. We see the diagnosis. We see the wheelchair. But we rarely see the person carrying it all. The sleepless nights.
The missed vacations.
The financial stress.
The grief.
The exhaustion. Some of the strongest people on earth aren’t famous, wealthy, or celebrated. They’re quietly holding someone together while nobody notices they’re falling apart too. Today, send some love to the caregivers. They need it more than they will ever admit. ❤️ This is a MUST repost

Eight American airmen lost their lives this morning, not in combat, but conducting a flight test here in the US from Edwards AFB. Doing what they loved, making sure the planes are safe and lethal. They were from my old squadron, flying the BUFF just like I did. The sick TDS crowd can’t restrain themselves from attacking the SoW. I really hope @CynicalPublius or @GBNT1952 can amplify and use their rhetorical skill to properly put into words what, in my grief, I am unable to find. My God, they haven’t even recovered the bodies.

Why do American's seem so anxious right now? @DanaPerino and @ColintReed describe the seemingly low national morale, even following a massive weekend of sports and patriotic events.

China doesn’t need to outwork American scientists when it can just raid their files instead. Why is Congress making that easier?

This man who (incredibly) is still trying to cover up the ongoing mass rape of English girls by Muslims wants us to believe that he cares about children’s safety.

These monstrous wind farms—every one of which exists solely based on federal subsidy—are a visual assault on God’s creation that weaken the grid, disrupt marine ecosystems, and force reliance on foreign fuel when have near-limitless reserves of our own.

They’re going to Madagascar

When @PeteButtigieg got $1.2 TRILLION to fix America’s roads and bridges… then said the money would be used to tear down racist roads. A moment so absurdly woke even Al Sharpton shot him a look that said, “Brother…. you crazy.”

Hospitals should be helping people heal, NOT slowly poisoning them...

RT @BWLH_: No. We saw what Somalis did to Americans in 1993. There shouldn’t be one Somali in America. There were virtually none in Minneso…

Today in 1973, the greatest horse race in history was run. Secretariat won the Belmont Stakes by 31 lengths to become the Triple Crown winner and set a world record time that has never been beaten! 🎥: CBS Broadcast

A dog was rescued from a kayak lost at sea after being separated from his owner off the east coast of England.

Every 'e' in 'Mercedes' is pronounced differently.

"...A nation can not claim to be a seapower if it will not risk its naval power in order to protect the merchant mariner..." From historian, strategist & philosopher of seapower, Sir Julian Corbett's [1854-1922] unreleased records that Prof Andrew Lambert & I are working on. Context: In the 1920s, Corbett sought to update his work on maritime strategy, reflecting on the experience of the First World War and evolutions in warfare technologies such as air power and submarine warfare. His argument centres onto protection of civilian shipping through key arguments of lines of communication, or in short the protection of logistic pathways for national prosperity, global stability and equally times of war and conflict to advance the prosecution of warfare.

On this day in 1966, a routine photo op turned into one of the most devastating tragedies in military aviation history. Here's a short video of what happened to Prototype No. 2 of the North American XB-70 Valkyrie.

If you want to hate America watch the news, if you want to love America drive across it. 🇺🇸

Marines on D-DAY #OTD, Allied forces launched the D-Day invasion of Normandy, a decisive turning point in World War II. Though frequently overshadowed by the Pacific campaign, the Marine Corps made vital contributions to this monumental assault. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the majority of Marines were deployed to the Pacific. However, specialized cadres remained to provide crucial amphibious warfare expertise to Allied forces in Europe for the duration of the war. These amphibious trainings would eventually make significant contributions to major amphibious assaults throughout the European Theater of Operations, including Operation Torch in North Africa in 1942, Operation Husky in Sicily in 1943, and Operation Overlord in 1944. Beginning in 1942, numerous Marines were embedded with Allied command staffs to advise on and coordinate major amphibious landings. Key figures like Col. Robert O. Bare served as leading strategists for naval gunfire and training and went ashore on D-Day itself. Marines actively supported the grueling assault on Omaha Beach, manning the 5-inch guns off warships like the USS Texas to provide critical fire support for the troops storming ashore. Other Marines scanned the skies above while manning anti-aircraft guns ensuring the German air force was kept at bay. In total a little over 800 Marines participated in Operation Overlord on D-Day with approximately a squad of Marines landing on Omaha Beach itself, helping to transport the wounded and captured prisoners of war, and coordinate fires for the USS Texas’s 14-inch heavy guns. ✍️ (U.S. Marine Corps graphic by Lance Cpl.

RIGHT NOW in 1944, this is the scene in Normandy. The liberation of France is underway #DDay

Most people don't even begin until they're convinced it's too late. I know this because I have been around writers all my life, and I'm one myself. Deadlines are treated as starting lines. Yet the books and articles do get done. There is a general lesson here. It's all over, my friends, so I guess it's time to get going.
