#OTD in 1798, the modern United States Marine Corps was formally established by law. Following the Revolutionary War, the Continental Marines were disbanded. However, recognizing the continued need for a dedicated naval infantry force, Congress passed "An Act for Establishing and Organizing a Marine Corps."
This pivotal legislation created a permanent Marine Corps under the Department of the Navy, solidifying its place as an integral branch of the American military.

🇺🇸 Most Badass Celebrities: Combat Veterans Edition #8 Charles Bronson
Charles Bronson, famous for starring in Death Wish, The Magnificent Seven, and The Dirty Dozen, is a World War II combat veteran and Purple Heart recipient.
He grew up in extreme poverty in a coal-mining family in Pennsylvania.
When he started school at age six, his family was so poor that he had to wear his older sister’s hand-me-down dress because there were no boys’ clothes available.
By the time he was 16, he was already working in the mines, digging coal for just one dollar a ton.
When World War II broke out, Bronson enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Forces and trained as an aerial gunner.
He served as a nose gunner with the 61st Bombardment Squadron on a B-29 Superfortress.
He was sent to the Pacific Theater, where he flew 25 combat missions over Japan.
During one of his missions his B-29 took heavy fire. He was wounded in the arms and shoulder and earned the Purple Heart.
After the war, Bronson was discharged as a corporal and eventually found his way into acting.
His hard, no-nonsense screen presence made him one of the most iconic tough guys in Hollywood.
Thank you, Corporal! 🫡🇺🇸
URGENT: Socialist radicals just laid out their EXACT plan to overthrow the US government and destroy America!
The Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) dropped a webinar spelling out their Marxist Leninist blueprint for revolution. And it has gone mega viral for good reason.
In it they openly call for:
-ABOLISHING the US Constitution (they trash it as written by slave owning capitalists to protect capital)
-Drafting a brand new peoples constitution through mass conventions that puts working class rights first
-Seizing the banks top corporations and means of production under social control
-Smashing the old state and building a brand new socialist state with no professional politicians no electoral college and mass organizations (unions tenant groups) running things
-A Third Reconstruction that fundamentally changes property relations from capitalism to socialism
This is not abstract theory or wishful thinking. This is their actual roadmap for what happens when in their words the workers take power.
These are the same radicals who have been agitating in the streets infiltrating unions (one participant in their training is a NEA teachers union leader) and pushing this stuff for years. They are dead serious about revolutionary overthrow not reform.
America First means shutting this down before it gains any more ground. These people want to burn the Constitution and hand the country to the state.
We will not let that happen.
Are you willing to be loud and speak up so that doesn’t happen?
Want to know why Democrats hate these military flyovers?
Because they send American patriotism to sky high levels and boost our national spirit.
Under Biden, humiliating our military was intentional.
Trans officers in dog masks. Kicking soldiers out for refusing vaccines. Disrespecting religious beliefs.
The only way to defeat America is by weakening us from within.
These low flyovers do the opposite.
🚨 NOW: Border Czar Tom Homan just exposed that Democrat Attorneys General and District Attorneys are quietly DOWNGRADING crimes committed by illegal aliens to shield them from deportation
The party of TRAITORS — and frankly, TREASON.
"You saw the AG in Virginia, he's been called before Congress for treating illegal aliens better on criminal convictions and cases than American citizens. The reason he does that is to make it hard to deport these people."
"Elections MATTER. We need to put the right people in place to enforce the law!"
"Let's pick the candidates that ENFORCE THE LAW. President Trump is about America first and enforcing the law, THAT'S what we need to do!"
Nick Shirley and Dr Oz confront a healthcare company in New York City
On paper they claim to serve 8,000 patients, but when confronted they can’t answer any questions, give any details or confirm any patient totals
Medical clinics that are in very small facilities would typically only see about 150 unique patients per year, yet they are claiming to see 8,000
This is what stealing insane amounts of taxpayer money looks like
Let’s compare this to a medical office that’s more busy, this is a better comparison:
A small primary care doctor’s office that does really well with 1–2 physicians on staff would see more patients, they might see 2,000, even up to 4,000 unique patients per year
But even with these numbers you’re still at just 25%-50% of what this facility is claiming to see….
It’s very clearly fraud
8,000 unique patients per year like they’re claiming would require seeing roughly 22 new patients every single day for 365 days straight
@KevO4188 They have just one shot. All bees die after they sting. All bees flying around gathering pollen are girls. The boys are all drones hanging around the queen hoping to get lucky.
VETERAN SPOTLIGHT!
We remember Technical Sergeant Salvatore J. Salemi of Woodside, Queens, N.Y.!
Born in Manhattan to Sicilian immigrant parents, Salemi began working in his family's fruit and produce business as a young teenager before opening stores of his own by the mid-1930s.
After being inducted into the U.S. Army in November 1942, he graduated from Camp Ritchie's Military Intelligence School and served as an interpreter and interrogator of prisoners of war. His service took him from North Africa and Sicily to Anzio, the liberation of Rome, Southern France, and back to Italy.
In January 1945, he joined the legendary 10th Mountain Division, where he conducted reconnaissance, observed enemy positions, and interrogated thousands of refugees and prisoners throughout the rugged mountains of northern Italy. During the Po Valley campaign, his courage and dedication earned him both the Bronze Star and the Purple Heart.
Following Germany's surrender, Salemi continued serving with the U.S. Army of Occupation in Austria until his honorable discharge in November 1945.
Salemi died on September 27, 2008.
We thank Mr. Salemi for his service!

The NC State Court of Appeals just ruled that 65,000 ballots in the 2024 election for a NC Supreme Court race should NOT have counted.
This was an election where a Democrat won by only 734 votes.
Secure our elections NOW.
The bravest man in the prison camp did not carry a rifle. He carried a Mass kit and a stolen sack of food, and the Communists were more afraid of him than of any soldier there.
Father Emil Kapaun was a Catholic priest from a tiny farm town in Kansas. Soft spoken, humble, the kind of man who probably should have spent his life doing quiet parish work. Instead he put on an Army uniform and became a chaplain, and he ended up on the front line in Korea in the fall of 1950.
At the battle of Unsan his unit got overrun by a massive Chinese assault. Men were told to pull out and save themselves. Kapaun refused to leave. He walked back and forth through the incoming fire, unarmed, dragging wounded soldiers out of the open, giving last rites to the dying, carrying men on his back. When the position finally fell he could have slipped away. He stayed with the wounded who could not move, knowing it meant capture.
Then came the moment people never forgot. A Chinese soldier stood over a wounded American sergeant named Herbert Miller, about to execute him where he lay. Kapaun walked straight up, pushed the enemy soldier aside, picked the wounded man up off the ground, and carried him away. The enemy was so startled by the sheer nerve of it that they let it happen. Miller lived the rest of his life because a priest refused to let him be shot.
What he did in the prison camp over the next seven months might be the most incredible part. In a filthy, freezing camp where men were dying of starvation and dysentery every day, Kapaun became the heart of the place. He snuck out at night to steal food for the sick. He boiled water in secret to keep men from dying of disease. He gave away his own tiny rations. He washed the filth off dying soldiers with his own hands, and he led prayers out loud in defiance of guards who beat him for it, keeping hope alive in men who had every reason to quit.
The Communists hated him for it, because faith was the one thing they could not take from those prisoners as long as he was breathing. Eventually the beatings and the starvation and a blood clot broke his body. When he got too sick, the guards hauled him off to the death house, a filthy room where they dumped men to die alone. He forgave his guards on the way out. He died there in May 1951 at just thirty five years old.
Sixty two years later they gave him the Medal of Honor. His fellow prisoners, the ones who lived because of him, spent their whole lives telling the world what he did. His body, long lost in an unmarked grave, was finally identified and brought home in 2021. And the Catholic Church is now on the road to declaring the humble priest from Kansas a saint.
Every state and local election official is on notice – knowingly encouraging noncitizens to vote or conspiring to fraudulently register noncitizens is a federal crime. The @CivilRights Division is ready to help with compliance as American citizens deserve free and fair elections!
Let's a show a show of hands.
Who's SURPRISED at this point that the Dept. of Education - or whatever that really was - that Linda McMahon took control of last year is turning out to be a MASSIVE ORGANIZED CRIME FRONT for lots of FRAUD/MONEY-LAUNDERING?
When Trump and his team launched their HOSTILE TAKEOVER BID of that THING that was functioning as the US Federal Government's Executive Branch, how many times did this play out?
How many times?
How many federal agencies turned out to be massive organized crime fronts? The US Treasury, the HHS, the SSA, the State Department, Transportation Dept., etc. etc. ?
Billions and billions in missing money. Sure, the US Treasury and the USAid stuff got most of the attention.
But in the last six months we STARTED to discover how much of the HHS healthcare taxpayer dollars were stolen by fraud, and it's between 9 and 19 billion in Minnesota over the last decade, and it's likely to be even TRIPLE that in California.
I have stated many times, that there is FAR MORE than sufficient evidence that's been made public to sustain this claim:
That 'Executive Branch' that Trump and his team were trying to assume control back in January 2025 was an ORGANIZED CRIME FRONT.
And Trump and his Cabinet officers spent most of 2025 locked in a SILENT WAR with a highly organized criminal cabal of GOVERNMENT GANGSTERS for control of the federal agencies and the US military.
They don't have total and complete and overwhelming control yet, but they have ENOUGH control taken away from the gangsters that the gangsters are forced to watch helplessly as more of their fraud and theft gets exposed.
He was only 11 years old when he performed the task that earned a Medal of Honor.
During the brutal Seven Days Battles retreat in 1862, the army marched through days of rain and mud. Most soldiers dropped anything they didn’t need to survive.
Not the drummer boy from the 3rd Vermont.
Willie Johnston kept his drum the entire way.
When the exhausted troops finally reached Harrison’s Landing, he was the only drummer in his entire division who still had his instrument.
He played for them on the 4th of July.
Word reached President Lincoln and on September 16, 1863, the now 13 year old Willie Johnston was awarded the Medal of Honor. He remains the youngest recipient in U.S. history.
The DSA (Destroying Society Altogether) wants to eliminate the President, eliminate the Senate, and eliminate the United States altogether.
They want to do more to destroy America than Al Qaeda did.
Socialists are terrorists.
