🚨WOW!!!
A homeless veteran loved his dog so much he gave him up after he couldn't feed him... giving him to a fire station with a note that read, "please help my baby."
The firefighters adopted the dog.
Then they found the vet living in a tent... and GAVE HIM A HOME TOO!!!
Early one morning, firefighters in Fort Worth walked outside their station and found a pitbull named Jake chained to the flagpole and beside him, was a handwritten note.
It was from a 65-year-old disabled veteran named Tom.
He'd been living in a homeless camp for 20 months, ever since his landlord wouldn't renew his lease.
He was trying to claw his way to a better life, but he couldn't do it and care for his dog at the same time.
So he made the hardest decision of his life and in that note, he begged:
"I have nothing but my baby Jake. If you have a soul and really care about helping babies, please help my baby."
He gave up the only thing he had left in this world... because he loved that dog too much to watch him suffer.
The firefighters didn't just take Jake in.
They ADOPTED him. He's the station dog now, showered with love, "a boost in morale," they said.
But they didn't stop there.
The department's homeless outreach team went looking for Tom and they FOUND HIM in his camp.
They got him medical care, and then a veterans nonprofit, Operation Texas Strong, stepped up and gave this old soldier an RV and a place to live.
A man who had NOTHING gave up his last companion to save him...
...and a community turned around and saved them BOTH.
As the man who housed him said: "No veteran should ever be homeless anywhere in the United States."
This is the country I know, the one that doesn't leave a solider or his dog behind!!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Blessed are the ones who help the helpless. 🫶
When Chance and Nova were abandoned, Stephanie Rae stepped up. She opened her home and her heart to them — making it 9 dogs she has taken in, protected, and loved.
They left home as boys 8 decades ago to go out and save the world. Last night they sat at the WWII Memorial together and celebrated their country's 250th. Still heroic.
Unfortunately, the weather may have disrupted parts of the @Freedom250 celebration, but we were grateful to open the beautiful @USDA building to provide shelter. And then this happened… these incredible patriots spontaneously broke into the National Anthem.🇺🇸
I love my country.
The best news you'll hear today? You don't have to earn God's love. He doesn't love you because of what you've done. He loves you because of who He is. His grace is a gift, freely given through Jesus!
So stop striving, stop carrying the weight of trying to be "good enough," and simply receive the love He has for you today. Ephesians 2:8–9 🙏
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Just wrapped filming on Ethan Almighty, a movie about the fierce fight to protect dogs and the inspiring movement behind Ethan’s Law in Kentucky. 🎬🐕
The momentum is clearly growing. Indiana is taking a massive step forward. @GovMikeBraun signed HB 1165 to crack down on animal abuse, and it officially becomes law on July 1st.
And now that all 50 states have made animal torture a felony on the first offense, the next step is making sure those laws are as strong, clear, and enforceable as they need to be.
This is a huge victory, but it can’t be the finish line. I’m going to keep using my platform to help raise the standard everywhere. One state at a time. Let's go!
