There was a Royal Navy captain in WW2 whose real name was Johnnie Walker.
In 1939 the Navy had given up on him. Passed over for promotion, marked down by his own superiors, quietly being pushed toward early retirement. His career was a dead end.
Then the Atlantic turned into a graveyard. German U-boats were sinking Allied ships faster than they could be built, sailors were drowning in the thousands, and Britain was months from being starved into surrender. Suddenly the Navy remembered the one man who had spent years obsessing over exactly how to kill a submarine.
They finally gave him a ship. He became the deadliest U-boat hunter who has ever lived.
He didn't wait for U-boats to attack. He invented tactics to go get them. His "creeping attack" had one ship silently guide another over the target so the submarine crew couldn't hear death coming until the depth charges were already sinking toward them.
When he charged into battle he blasted "A-Hunting We Will Go" over the loudspeakers. He revived "General Chase," an attack signal so old it hadn't been flown since Nelson's day. And when depth charges weren't enough, he simply drove his ship straight over a surfaced U-boat and rammed it under.
His group once sank 6 U-boats in a single patrol. He helped clear the English Channel so the entire D-Day invasion fleet could cross safely. He was decorated four times, one of the most honored officers in the Royal Navy.
And he carried all of it while broken with grief. In 1943 his own son, a young submariner, was killed when his sub was lost in the Mediterranean. Walker got the news and went straight back to sea to keep hunting.
In the end the war didn't kill him. The work did. Years of standing on that bridge in every storm, refusing to rest, burned him out completely. He collapsed from a stroke and died at 48. The doctors called it exhaustion.
They carried his coffin through the streets of Liverpool while a thousand people stood in silence. Then a warship took him out past the harbor and buried him in the same Atlantic he had spent his life defending.
Uncounted thousands of sailors made it home because of him. His statue still stands on the Liverpool waterfront today, facing the sea, watching for submarines that will never come again.
His name was Johnnie Walker. Don't ever forget it.
🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP DROPS A BOMBSHELL: “DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISM MUST BE CRIMINALIZED; LEADERS DEPORTED”
No mincing words. Trump is calling it exactly like it is, this failed ideology has no place in America. Criminalize it. Deport the leaders pushing it.
He’s right.
The CEO of StubHub exposed in SEC documents to own a hedge fund thats scalping millions of tickets on StubHub making a fortune
Everything is a scam
“StubHub bills itself as an online marketplace for fans where they can buy and sell tickets, but it turns out that StubHub CEO himself also has a hedge fund that is scalping millions of dollars worth of its own tickets”
“The company went public on the New York Stock Exchange last fall. They had to file documents to the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in those SEC filings, we find some interesting information. The CEO, Eric Baker, actually owns and manages a hedge fund by the name of Andro Capital.
Its business: selling millions of dollars worth of tickets on StubHub — So essentially, StubHub and its CEO are in the business of mass scalping”
Here’s a step by step of how the scam works
- StubHub CEO’s Andro Capital buys large numbers of tickets, sometimes in bulk from primary sellers, other brokers and events
- They then list and sell those same tickets on StubHub at much higher prices
- When fans buy the tickets, Andro makes a profit on the price difference, this is the scalping markup
- StubHub helps them by handling the listing, pricing and delivery of the tickets, sometimes with special arrangements or lower fees for Andro
The result is millions of dollars in ticket sales flow through Andro on StubHub, and the profits go back to the hedge fund that StubHub CEO Baker owns and manages
It means with his big money and influence he can move in early, gets the tickets for events, then mark them and rob everyone blind

🚨 WOW! Director Kash Patel's FBI has just FIRED two Atlanta-area FBI analysts because they refused to participate in the Fulton County, Georgia 2020 election investigation — MSNOW
This comes after nearly 200 AGENTS surged for the probe
PURGE THE OBSTRUCTIONIST DEEP STATE! 🔥
“Every employee at this FBI is to uphold our mission and adhere to our standards, any deviation will not be tolerated," the FBI said
@FBIDirectorKash this is what we voted for!

🚨 CRUZ JUST GOT THE KEYS TO THE RULES COMMITTEE. HERE'S EXACTLY WHAT HE CAN DO WITH THEM:
Monday. McConnell absent. Cruz chairs Rules.
Not vague promises. Not "we'll see." NAMED PROCEDURAL LEVERS. Specific committee power. Right now.
🔴 Original sponsor of the SAVE America Act → his own bill
🔴 Publicly said he'd use "every procedural tool" to beat the filibuster
🔴 On record backing nuking the filibuster if leadership blocks it
🔴 McConnell already joined Dems once to kill the last procedural motion
🔴 Bill needs 60 votes → GOP only has ~53
🔴 Texas voter ID → the model he's cited for years
🔴 House already passed it → sitting dead in the Senate for months
💀 The bill requires citizenship proof to register
💀 Requires photo ID to vote
💀 It's been blocked by McConnell + Collins + Murkowski + Tillis + every Democrat
💀 Cruz now temporarily controls the exact committee that can move it
Every excuse he's ever given evaporates Monday morning.
This isn't a hearing. This is the test.
You don't get handed the Rules Committee by accident during the one week your own bill needs a procedural push. You get handed it, and the entire country finds out in real time whether "original sponsor" meant something or was just a talking point.
Cruz's own words are now the ultimatum.
Monday is HOUR ZERO.
I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨

We must leave the EU. 🇪🇺
An Airbnb host showed up to end a party and asked the guests to leave. Instead of walking out, one of them shoved the host straight into the pool.
The moment someone asks you to leave their property, the argument is over. You don’t have to like it, but you don’t get to assault the owner because you didn’t get your way.
Wesley Winter can be thought of as the English Nick Shirley. He documents protests for YouTube and other social media. As a result of his coverage of Antifa, he was brutally beaten in Paris. (There are a lot of empowered, violent Antifa in Europe.) Please read his post:

GEORGIA heats up, as more than 200 FBI agents are on the ground in Fulton County to probe for evidence in the stolen 2020 election.
A deadline of July 17th has been set to bring the findings and evidence forward.
This is EXACTLY what we voted for.
For the sake of our national security, the @FBI and @HouseGOP should tell the American people the identity of the Senior GOP Congressional staffer who is being investigated by the FBI for being an unregistered foreign agent for Qatar.
We deserve to know which Congressional staffers are Islamic agents for a state sponsor of terrorism.
This is disgraceful.
@SpeakerJohnson should tell the American people who is bought and paid for by Qatar.
