Yesterday, we lost a cherished member of our family.

We got Sunny at the start of our second term in the White House, and all of us – including our first dog, Bo – immediately fell in love. We also had trouble keeping up with her, for Sunny was a force of nature. Athletic and full of boundless energy, she leapt over the hedges on the South Lawn like they weren’t even there, chasing squirrels, birds and anything else that moved. And whereas the way to Bo’s heart usually involved a treat, Sunny was more interested in having us run around with her, roll on the floor with her, or have her belly rubbed for as long as we were willing.

She loved the girls, even if they were pestering her when she was napping. She loved our team, and would often follow them around, helping them on the job. She was fiercely protective of Bo, who she rightly sensed wasn’t always as alert and attentive as she was. She had her eccentricities: other than Bo, she preferred people to dogs; she was a loud and sloppy drinker; and despite being a Portuguese Water Dog, she hated getting wet.

But as far as our family was concerned, she was pretty much perfect, and for thirteen years, she would be by our side – always loyal, always sweet, always ready for adventure, still fiery and gorgeous till the very end of her days.

We will miss her terribly, and imagine she’s with her big brother now, making sure he’s okay.

There are absolutely NO circumstances in which a woman deserves to be raped or sexually assaulted.

A woman could be walking down the street naked - & she STILL wouldn’t ‘deserve’ it.

Clothes don’t cause rape - rapist do.

@penelopeessence @ThomasEvansAdur RNLI doesn't task itself - HM Coastguard received the information and determining action was required requested a man RNLI Launch.
So no they are not accomplices as you claim they are doing their jobs as tasked

Sending love to anyone who has ever lost a pet. They are more than just pets. They become family and friends to us when they enter our lives.

My local @RNLI did a fundraising collection this week. I’m proud of my community for their response. It’s what most of us feel despite the haters (a thread to give you hope)

People stopped to thank the volunteers & and lifeboat crews & to tell them how much they value the RNLI

[Citi Field @CitiField]

In honor of the brave first responders who sacrificed their lives on 9/11, we have planted a tree along with @answerthecall in front of the ballpark 🇺🇸

Fascist thugs! We must stand up for decency. God bless the RNLI heroes.

[Dr Emma Harries @DrEmilyHarris]

As a former volunteer RNLI crew member (and HMCG Coastguard Rescue Officer), I have just joined my local Lifeboat fundraising committee in order to boost decency and respect in my community.

Let's all rally round our wonderful RNLI and show what true patriotism looks like.

[Simon Harris @SimonHarrisMBD]

Good news! You’ve all now helped to add an extra FIFTY GRAND to The Flying Farage RNLI Appeal since it all went a bit mad last Sunday. Thank you!

@yesdab @ThomasEvansAdur @RNLI You've got a very warped view of what the definition of what a traitor is.

[Andy @cauterize1750]

@LeftHandedDave @ThomasEvansAdur @RNLI 90% of crossings handled by Border Force or other Agencies - any RNLI assistance calls made by HM Coastguard coordinate directly with Border Force when landing them.
So tell me Dave - who is REALLY at fault here hmmmm

[Andy @cauterize1750]

@lilyhilbo @ThomasEvansAdur @RNLI Just going to point out Border force and other agencies handle over 90% of small boat crossings... so the hate should be at them not the RNLI for the very small number they have assisted

[Thomas Evans @Renewal2030 🇬🇧 @ThomasEvansAdur]

Quick reminder.

During World War II, the @RNLI routinely launched into hazardous waters to rescue downed German 🇩🇪 pilots, strictly upholding their mission to save any life at sea regardless of nation or cause.

Between 1939 and 1945, RNLI volunteer crews saved over 6,300 lives, including hundreds of enemy airmen and sailors.

Humanity always came first 🌊⚓

@Dramallama72 @nickdemarco_ You're right, and it's going to continue to be an issue until someone gets a grip of it - I don't hold much hope

25 years ago today, I was 18 years old on the ramp here in Yellowknife. I saw the news and heard the FAA is closing all its airspace.

My dad had just landed in his DC-3. We had no TV at work and pretty crappy internet, so we were trying to figure out what was happening as the news came in.

Then a massive United 777 diverted into Yellowknife and rumors of a 747 on its way. (The 747 ended up in Whitehorse).

I still remember walking right up to the to engine of that massive 777 and seeing all the faces in the windows looking down at me. We all had no clue the world had just changed forever.

Ladder 3 was one of the first firefighter units to show up at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Sadly, its crew perished in the collapse of the North Tower. Their truck is now displayed in the NYC Memorial.
