Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.
They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.
France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend
OBSESSION was one of if not THE scariest and hardest movies to get through I’ve ever watched in my entire life.
Went to see a 9:30 PM showing by myself. Had no idea what to expect. I’ve never been as drawn in and captivated by a movie in maybe 5+ years.
The people behind me saw me jump out of my seat 10+ times. I was throwing my hands up, gasping, shocked the entire time.
Inde Navarrette gave one of the best performances of modern time. She deserves ALL the awards.
When this movie hits streaming it’s going to do NUMBERS. 🤯
Not a movie to watch with people who talk during movies or to be on your phone for even a second. Needs your full attention.
I just had the craziest experience at the airport.
We are about to board a flight to Atlanta when the pilot from the incoming plane walks out of the jetway. Guy is probably late 50s, salt and pepper hair, military look. The kind of pilot you instantly feel good about seeing on your flight.
Pilot walks over to the counter, gets on the PA system, and starts addressing everyone. “Folks, I’ve been doing this a long time. Flying one of these jets is easy. The hard part is looking at 130 people and telling them their flight is going to be delayed.”
Audible groans throughout the boarding gate. Most people here are flying to Atlanta as a layover before another flight. 130 people just had their day become a complete mess.
The pilot goes on. “I get it, trust me. But here’s the deal: During our landing, we had a small mechanical issue. I’m not your pilot for the next leg, but I don’t feel confident the jet’s safe to fly until we have a mechanical team look it over, and I don’t feel comfortable asking the next pilots to fly you guys until we get confirmation.”
He points at the agents next to him behind the counter: “Now, none of this is the agents’ fault. Please be kind to them. I’m the one who made this decision, not them, so any inconvenience you experience is my fault. Just please know that I don’t do this lightly, and I’m only doing it because I believe it’s in the best interests of everyone’s safety.”
Now this is where the story gets crazy. The pilot puts the microphone down, grabs his suitcase, and all the people in the gate…
Start clapping.
I’m not joking, everyone starts clapping for the guy. 130 people who just had their travel plans ruined give an ovation to the guy who made the decision and delivered the message.
All because he addressed them with decency and transparency, took ownership of the decision, made it clear that it was necessary, and explained why it was in everyone’s best interest.
It’s honestly one of the best examples of strong communication—of strong leadership, for that matter—that I’ve seen in a long time.
@Delta, whoever your Atlanta to Wichita pilot was this morning, he’s one of the good ones. Please tell him the delayed passengers of flight 1637 appreciate what he did.
We got a box here from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and it belongs to one half of the longest rivalry in college football!
It's the Lehigh Mountain Hawks! What a great school with rich tradition and history!
Thank you Coach Nagy and @LehighFootball keep pounding the rock!!
Speedy Clayton sobbing with joy into the arms of his assistant over coaching his alma mater to its first NCAA Tournament in 24 years is why March is the greatest month and college basketball is so beautiful.
This is one local Philly legend that is very, VERY happy tonight he’s retired.
I swear, Channel 6 would send Vernon into the worst possible weather conditions every single time. 😂 God bless this man!

NEW: Newly released Epstein documents reveal FBI agent purposely removed hard drive from jail video recording system, intentionally erasing all prison footage during the time of Epstein’s death.
Epstein ordered hundreds of gallons of sulfuric acid to his island on the same day that an FBI investigation into child sex trafficking was opened?!
The odds of this being a coincidence are virtually impossible.
He was tipped off & dissolved human bodies before the feds raided.
🚨Epstein Files
THIS IS HUGE.
The individual who anonymously posted on 4Chan the morning of Epstein’s death, August 10, 2019 claiming he witnessed weird happenings at the prison before Epstein’s death has been identified in the Epstein files.
Roberto Grijalva, an officer at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York has been identified as the anonymous prison employee who posted on 4Chan claiming Epstein left his cell Friday evening shackled in a medical wheelchair while at the same time an unauthorized trip van arrived at the prison, which he believes took Epstein away the night BEFORE news broke of his death.
The day after Epstein’s death, U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman of the SDNY opened a Grand Jury proceeding and subpoenaed 4Chan, Apple, AT&T and Citibank for records aiming to uncover Grijalva’s identity following the anonymous 4Chan post.
Grijalva’s name is not redacted on his bank records included in the SDNY subpoena response from Citibank for his 4Chan post, and ties to the same Prison Officer Roberto Grijalva whose statements were released as part of the prison’s investigation into Epstein’s death.
This is HUGE. We now have validation the 4Chan post from 8/10/2019 is a legitimate eyewitness account from an MCC prison officer that Epstein may have been switched out before news broke of his alleged suicide.
