I'll never forget the outpouring of love we received at the fire station after 9/11. We had a large area in our apparatus bay that was filled with posters, cards, and gifts from the community we served - especially children. I kept some of them.
Never forget.
I hate that I have to do this, it’s my least favorite part about my life. I knew my life would get even more dangerous when I announced I am suing California and began accepting invitations to speak on college campuses this semester.
I need to raise money again for security. Doing the right thing and exposing evil now puts your life in danger in today’s society. For example, a UC Irvine “lecturer” (teacher) is insinuating it would be funny to assassinate me and leftist are threatening to kill me constantly.
I will not cower to the radicals or the far left who threaten and plot to kill and destroy our country, yet the $30k–$50k a month it costs me just to stay safe doing my job is unsustainable. I make enough for my needs and my employees, but this added expense produces no return and is unsustainable on my own.

As we approach the sad anniversary of the World Trade Center attack, I'd like for everyone to remember one of the miracles that occured.
I had the honor of hearing this story from Captain Jay Jonas not long after 9/11. It's something I'll never forget.

@amelia_tweetz They didn't take it. We gave it all away. Nobody forced us to allow walmart to destroy smalltown busnesses. Nobody forced us to buy cheap Chinese imitations.
We did it to ourselves, and getting it back will be tough.
Natalie Harp is a 35 year old bone cancer survivor, who credits Trump's 2018 "Right to Try" law for saving her life.
Harp battled stage II bone cancer most of her life.
On November 9, 2015 a medical error left her severely ill, housebound, wheelchair-bound, and in extreme chronic pain.
During that time period, she failed 2 rounds of chemo and was denied clinical trials. She was in her early twenties.
By 2017 she was speaking publicly about the ongoing health issues stemming from the cancer and the 2015 error.
She was running out of options and her quality of life was in steep decline.
She eventually found another oncologist willing to try “an FDA-approved immunotherapy drug for an unapproved use."
She attributes her ability to access experimental options and her subsequent improvement to the federal Right to Try Act, signed by President Trump in May 2018.
In June 2019, she wrote a post praising Trump and the law, then appeared on Fox News to share her story. Trump either saw her appearance or heard about it and phoned into the show around that time and commented positively on her.
This led Trump to invite her to speak at events, including a Faith & Freedom Coalition gathering, and later at the 2020 Republican National Convention. She also joined the advisory board for his 2020 reelection campaign. After working as a host at One America News Network (2020–2022), she formally joined his political team/staff in 2022 and has remained closely involved since.
It is really disgusting that Jon Ossoff, the Pee-Wee Herman lookalike, and leftist media skanks are trying to make her work for Trump into something ugly.
If she was overweight and unattractive, they wouldn't say a word about it.
Never mind that she has multiple degrees. Never mind that she is a devout Christian.
She's pretty so they have to destroy her.
The tool is called ClarityCheck.
It’s a people-search site that offers reverse image search (upload a photo → get possible matches, names, social profiles, etc.)
Tool just left over 9 million face photos sitting wide open on the internet.
Adults. Teenagers. Children.
ClarityCheck’s unsecured Amazon S3 bucket was full of them for months. Anyone who found the link could download the lot.
These companies scrape faces, claim they’re helping people “identify” strangers, then leave biometric data exposed like it’s nothing.
Laken Riley was MURDERED while Jon Ossoff was the Senator from Georgia.
Now, instead of answering for the failures that occurred on his watch, Jon Ossoff is attacking Natalie Harp with baseless accusations.
A cowardly political stunt.
Postpartum depression is real.
My best friend Denise, held her newborn daughter in the hospital room, the soft beeps of monitors filling the quiet. The doctors had confirmed what the prenatal tests had suggested, the baby had Down syndrome. She had prepared herself for many things, but nothing prepared her for the wave that came in the weeks after she brought the baby home.
Postpartum depression settled over her like a heavy fog that refused to lift. It was overpowering. Simple tasks…feeding, changing diapers, even getting out of bed, felt impossible. Joy and love for the baby existed, but they were buried under exhaustion, guilt, and a crushing sense that she was failing.
Some days she stared at the wall for hours. Other days she cried without knowing why. The reality of caring for a child who would need extra support mixed with the chemical storm of hormones and sleep deprivation until it felt larger than she was.
I went every day. Not with grand speeches or fixes, but with the ordinary things that mattered…. I took the baby so she could shower or rest.
I cooked simple meals. I sat beside her in silence when words felt too hard. I reminded her, gently and repeatedly, that this darkness was not her fault and that she was not alone in it. I prayed with her. I made silly jokes and I helped advocate for her wellbeing.
Common sense said what the textbooks and pamphlets also say…postpartum depression is a real medical condition, not a character flaw. It does not mean a mother loves her child less. It means her brain and body are struggling after birth, and that struggle can be especially intense when a baby has special needs. Waiting it out rarely works. Getting help does.
So I stayed a true friend. I did not pretend I could cure it myself. I helped her call her doctor. I drove her to the appointments. I sat in the waiting room while she spoke with the therapist.
I looked up local support groups for parents of children with Down syndrome and offered to go with her the first time. When the medication was prescribed, I made sure the pharmacy run happened. When she felt too tired to keep the next appointment, I showed up anyway and walked her to the car.
Slowly, the fog began to thin. Not all at once, and not without hard days still ahead, but enough that Denise could look at their baby and feel the love rise again without the weight crushing it. She started sleeping a little better. She smiled more. She began to plan small things for the future instead of only surviving the present.
That is what friends do when the overpowering thing arrives… they show up every day, they speak the plain truth that help is needed, and they help make that help happen.
Denise was never weak. She was human. And with steady support, she found her way forward…one ordinary day at a time.
Today, she is not on any medication.
In the quiet moments when the weight of postpartum depression still pressed heavily on Denise, she turned her heart toward Jesus, whispering simple prayers through tears as she held her baby with Down syndrome.
One ordinary afternoon, after weeks of faithful support from her true friend who had walked with her daily and helped her seek help, a profound peace settled over her… Jesus reached into the fog of despair, lifting the crushing darkness as if by divine touch.
The overpowering sadness that had stolen her joy melted away; strength returned to her spirit, love for her child shone clear again, and she knew with quiet certainty that He had cured her depression, restoring her hope and filling the days ahead with renewed light and purpose.

If you know someone in need of help, offer your love, give your support and help them get the treatment they need. If they are on X, I can help cheer them.
