@tyromper My kids are similarly blessed, what do you do to prepare them for tougher times? The Bible obviously is littered with examples but as train said everyone has a plan until you get punched in the mouth.

@MattWalshBlog Remember when LeBron wore a shirt onto the Cavs floor for a game that said "hands up don't shoot" referring the the Michael Brown case when that actually never happened but the media reported nonstop that it did?
Watching Pete Hegseth verbally eviscerate these corrupt career politicians brings tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat — because all of you need to watch this as there are things you all need to understand about what Pete is standing up to fight here.
The Military Industrial Complex can’t stand to see Pete Hegseth in charge of the Pentagon, because he’s unraveling every evil scheme they’ve spent decades building.
During President Trump’s first term, the Swamp forced Mark Esper onto Trump as Secretary of Defense. Mark Esper was Vice President of Government Relations at Raytheon Technologies — a major arm of the Military Industrial Complex.
Mark’s job was to sell bombs for his company in any way he could. As Secretary of Defense, that included dropping those very same bombs during endless wars.
Raytheon is the world’s largest producer of guided missiles. For instance, the reason we dropped 25,000 missiles on Syria in one night during Mark Esper’s tenure — causing our Air Force to literally “run out of bombs to drop,” according to the media — is because Esper’s former company could then sell more missiles to restock the depleted inventory.
See, the Swamp pushed this weapons lobbyist onto President Trump to become his Secretary of Defense because this swamp rat could slide his company’s weapons catalogs across the table at NATO meetings like they were Girl Scout cookie pamphlets.
War is profit. Funding, arming, and training the Taliban makes even more profits, spanning decades.
Those who profit from war and death will profit no longer when President Trump and Pete Hegseth take office and work to end wars by stabilizing peace in the world.
The reason the Biden Administration left all those weapons in Afghanistan is because the private weapons defense contracting companies that made up the Biden Administration — and that lobby the politicians sitting in front of Hegseth here — had already sold all those weapons to our military. If the military comes home empty-handed, those companies get to sell even more to restock the inventory.
The Military Industrial Complex and the fake news media they own don’t want wars to end quickly. They make more money the longer the conflicts persist.
They want the Taliban to cause destruction in the Middle East with all those weapons so the Military Industrial Complex has an excuse to spend another 20 years there — dropping bombs for profit, causing more destruction and destabilization.
They armed our enemies on purpose.
Pete Hegseth stood on the battlefield with blood on his boots and steel in his spine as missiles rained from the skies overhead, while Mark Esper sat in corporate boardrooms engineering those very perpetual wars for profit.
This is the line in the blood soaked sand drawn between a warrior who bleeds for America and the swamp creatures who feeds off the blood of innocents in orchestrated forever wars on behalf of central bankers, weapons manufacturers and oil-igarchs.
Who do you trust to lead the Pentagon: a man who sacrificed his very life to serve this nation, or lobbyists in Washington, D.C., who cash in on endless wars by funding and arming our enemies?
I know who I stand behind — and I’ve got your six from my tiny little drafty hut here in Ohio, @SecWar
🚨 NOW: Secretary Marco Rubio DROPS this incredible Christian message
We are a Christian nation! 🇺🇸
"On this day, two and a half centuries ago, our forefathers gathered for the second time in as many years for a national day of fasting and prayer."
"The resolution of the Continental Congress called on the 13 colonies to humble themselves in preparation for the coming war. The founders were not naive men."
"They had no guarantees of victory. They knew that what they were trying to do had never been done before in human history. But with the dark storm clouds of war looming on the horizon, they did what Christians have always done."
"Across place and time for 2,000 years, they turned their eyes to heaven and placed their fate in the hands of God. This is who we are. It is who we have always been."
"America is still a young nation measured against a record of history, and from the beginning, we have carried the belief that our country represents something new in the world."
"But the soul of our nation has always been rooted in an ancient faith."
FBI Director Kash Patel says ARRESTS are coming over 2020 Election Fraud.
“They tried to rig the entire system. That's something I'm not going to allow. We are going to be making arrests. It's coming. I promise you it's coming soon.”

🚨BREAKING: President Trump just honored JESUS CHRIST by name from the White House.
"He died for all of us... It was a miracle in all of history — the resurrection of Jesus Christ."
God bless you, Mr. Best President!

On September 11, 2001, a 27-year-old woman made a phone call from a hijacked plane and said eight words her family has never forgotten:
“This is going to be so much harder for you than it is for me.”
Her name was Honor Elizabeth Wainio.
Everyone who loved her called her Lizz.
Two days earlier, she had been in Paris.
She had just returned from Europe — a dream trip years in the making. She attended a friend’s wedding in Florence. She walked the Champs-Élysées. She stepped into a church and lit a candle for her grandmother.
She once told her mother that if she ever got to see Paris, she could die happy.
She was 27. A rising district manager for Discovery Channel Stores. Driven. Warm. The kind of person who moved fast in life because she had so much to do.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, Lizz boarded United Airlines Flight 93 at Newark, headed to San Francisco.
There were 40 passengers and crew on board.
At 9:28 a.m., four hijackers stormed the cockpit.
Passengers were forced to the back of the plane. But something critical happened that morning — something that changed history.
Through phone calls, the passengers learned the truth.
The World Trade Center had already been hit. The Pentagon had been struck.
This wasn’t a negotiation.
It was a suicide mission.
And the people on Flight 93 understood before it was too late.
In the chaos, a stranger handed Lizz a phone.
“Call someone you love.”
She reached her stepmother, Esther.
Her voice was steady. Calm. Clear.
She didn’t beg. She didn’t scream.
She tried to comfort the woman who was about to lose her.
“It just hurts me most,” she said, “that this is going to be so much harder for you than it is for me.”
Let that sink in.
A 27-year-old woman, facing death at 30,000 feet… worried about the pain her family would feel.
They spoke for about four minutes. They breathed together. No dramatics. Just love stretched across distance.
Then Lizz said something else:
“I’m gonna be with Grandma.”
Her grandmother had lived near rural Pennsylvania — not far from where the plane would crash. She couldn’t have known that. But in that moment, she found comfort in the thought of reunion.
At 9:57 a.m., the passengers made their decision.
They were going to fight back.
Flight attendant Sandra Bradshaw called her husband and said she was boiling water to throw at the hijackers.
Passenger Todd Beamer prayed the Lord’s Prayer with a phone operator and said the words that would echo across a nation:
“Let’s roll.”
Lizz’s final words came just before the revolt began.
“They’re getting ready to break into the cockpit. I have to go. I love you. Good-bye.”
At 10:03 a.m., Flight 93 crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
Investigators later concluded the hijackers were likely targeting the U.S. Capitol.
Because the passengers fought back, that building still stands.
Thousands of lives were spared.
The 40 passengers and crew were later awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. Today, the crash site is the Flight 93 National Memorial.
There stands the Tower of Voices — 40 wind chimes, each tuned to a different note. When the wind moves across that field, they don’t sound the same.
They sound like individuals.
For years, Lizz’s father would call her cellphone just to hear her voicemail greeting. One day it was gone.
He said losing her voice a second time was devastating.
At the memorial, he listens for one particular chime.
“That’s my daughter,” he says.
Honor Elizabeth Wainio’s story is not only about how she died.
It’s about how she chose to live her final minutes.
She had just seen Paris.
She had just lit a candle for her grandmother.
And when the worst moment imaginable arrived, she didn’t ask for comfort.
She gave it.
“This is going to be so much harder for you than it is for me.”
In a world that remembers the fire and the fear, remember this too:
Thirty thousand feet above the earth, a young woman chose love over panic.
