🇺🇸 This man served in the Continental Army for 6+ years during the American Revolution.
Agrippa Hull, a free Black man from Stockbridge, Massachusetts, enlisted at age 18 in 1777.
He served as an orderly to Gen. John Paterson and the brilliant Polish engineer Tadeusz Kościuszko.
Hull was at Saratoga to witness Burgoyne’s surrender, wintered at Valley Forge, and fought at Monmouth and in the Southern campaigns.
In July 1783, he mustered out at West Point with a discharge paper signed by George Washington himself.
He lived to 89 years old and sat for this photo in 1844.
Thank you, Agrippa Hull! 🫡🇺🇸
That’s very calming to here! America is now on clean up to get rid of these lazy losers that think they are going to scrounge off the back of hard working Americans. We didn’t sacrifice our family and their lives to allow these small simple minded communists to STEAL OUR COUNTRY!
LFG 🇺🇸🇺🇸👍.
DEMOCRATS ARE COMMUNISTS!👇
Zohran Mamdani has made it clear that he doesn't care what SCOTUS says.... he'll shield illegal Haitians and Syrians from deportation following the Supreme Court TPS decision.
At what point can he be arrested and charged with treason? Asking for a couple hundred million friends.

Currently driving through Vermont. It’s hard to believe that this and Texas, where we were last week, are the same country. It’s like a different world here.
A fumaça de alecrim no galinheiro é um método antigo que ainda funciona.
🌿 Antes dos desinfetantes industriais, os camponeses italianos e os seus homólogos franceses, queimavam molhos de alecrim seco no estábulo e no galinheiro uma vez por mês.
Não era um ritual. Era uma técnica.
O alecrim queimado liberta em fase gasosa cânfora, cineol, alfa-pineno e ácido rosmarínico.
Em espaço fechado, estes compostos atingem concentrações letais para os artrópodes: moscas, mosquitos, ácaros, pulgas e piolhos, sem afetar mamíferos e aves, que toleram concentrações muito superiores.
É esta seletividade que tornava a técnica viável num galinheiro cheio.
— O ácaro vermelho (Dermanyssus gallinae) é o parasita mais temido na avicultura.
Esconde-se nas fendas da madeira dos poleiros durante o dia e suga o sangue das galinhas à noite.
Uma infestação forte provoca anemia, queda na postura e mortalidade dos pintos.
Os camponeses fumigavam o galinheiro vazio (galinhas fora), deixando a fumaça penetrar em cada fenda durante uma hora. O efeito durava 2 a 3 semanas.
As moscas dos estábulos; Stomoxys calcitrans e Musca domestica, caíam em poucos minutos.
A fumigação mensal interrompia progressivamente o ciclo reprodutivo.
A tradição não se limitava ao alecrim:
• Sálvia seca: mesmos princípios ativos, usada onde faltava alecrim.
• Zimbro seco: fumaça resinosa eficaz contra moscas e mosquitos, clássica nos estábulos alpinos.
• Lavanda seca: fumigação dos quartos contra percevejos; o linalol queimado tornava as fendas da madeira inabitáveis.
🌿 A fumigação com ervas também tinha um papel de desodorização.
A fumaça aromática mascarava o amoníaco do estrume; um irritante respiratório real para bovinos, suínos e aves.
Reduzir essa concentração melhorava concretamente o bem-estar dos animais.
🌿 Hoje, para quem gere um pequeno galinheiro biológico onde os tratamentos químicos não são desejáveis, queimar um molho de alecrim seco no galinheiro vazio uma vez por mês continua a ser um tratamento complementar contra o ácaro vermelho: sem resíduos, sem contaminação dos ovos e com o custo de um ramo.
@ZeekArkham How the GOP is treating Scott is disgusting! I can't believe they didn't sanction Thune.
Looks like We the People are going to have to handle this ourselves. 🇺🇸👊🏼
The fact that the Republican Party is actively fighting against a man like Scott Presler , instead of recruiting him and following his lead, tells us all that the swamp runs deeper than we all think.
Where are prominent Republicans backing him up? Why aren’t they giving him some sort of official rank within their organization to make sure he recruits more voters? Why is some random “sergeant-at-arms” so comfortable in being hostile towards one of the most genuinely nicest dudes out there?
To @ScottPresler, you’re supported more than you know. Please keep doing what you’re doing.
It turns out British police never handcuffed the man who murdered Henry Nowak.
Police only handcuffed Henry as he was bleeding out.
And it took police 8 minutes before discovering that he had been wounded.
This should be all over the news.
When did patriotism become partisan … and, when did the Democrats start hating America!
