💔 The body of 19-year-old Marly Kinney has been found after a five-day search at Grayson Lake in eastern Kentucky.
According to officials, Marly was with a group of 10 other people on a rented pontoon boat on Wednesday, June 24. Around 4 p.m., she reportedly got off the boat to use the restroom. The group later left the area and reportedly told investigators they weren't exactly sure where she had gotten off.
As a mother, I can't imagine how heartbreaking this is. There are still so many unanswered questions, and I hope investigators uncover exactly what happened. If anyone's actions contributed to this tragedy or any laws were broken, I hope those responsible are held accountable.
Praying for Marly's family and loved ones as they grieve this unimaginable loss. 🙏💔
September 11, 2001. United Airlines Flight 93.
The flight had departed Newark, New Jersey, bound for San Francisco. Then everything changed.
Hijackers took control of the aircraft. At first, passengers had limited information about what was happening. But through phone calls to family members and authorities, they learned that other hijacked planes had already struck major targets.
Among those passengers was Jeremy Glick, a former collegiate judo champion and young father. He used an onboard phone to call his wife Lyz. During that conversation, he learned about the attacks unfolding elsewhere that morning.
The passengers now understood this was not a typical hijacking. Time was running out.
Several passengers and crew members began discussing what to do. Rather than wait, they decided to act. Working together, they attempted to regain control of the aircraft from the hijackers.
At 10:03 a.m., Flight 93 crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. All 40 passengers and crew members aboard lost their lives. Investigators later concluded that the passengers' resistance disrupted the hijackers' plans and prevented the aircraft from reaching its intended target.
Jeremy Glick was 31 years old. He left behind his wife and young daughter.
They were ordinary people faced with an extraordinary decision. And they chose to act.
Today, they are remembered alongside one another at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania, where their names are inscribed and their courage is preserved.
"They were murdered in cold blood. With bare hands. They used to tell me it didn't matter. That I would get a new wife, new kids. A better wife and kids"
Gazan terrorists murdered Yarden Bibas's wife and kids and tormented him over it while he was held hostage.
Never forget.
United States Army Sergeant Tanner Stone Higgins was killed in action on April 14, 2012 in Logar Province, Afghanistan. Tanner was 23 years old and from Yantis, Texas. 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment. Remember Tanner. Warrior.🇺🇸🎖️
Apparently the scumbags who raped and murdered baby Preston are fearing for their lives in prison after other inmates learned what they're in for.
Good.
The Gestapo broke down her door on a cold morning in October 1943.
Suzanne Spaak did not run. She had been expecting this.
She was born in Brussels in 1905, into a wealthy Belgian banking family. Her husband Claude was a celebrated playwright. Their life in Paris was one of luxury and intellectual company. She knew René Magritte. She dined with the thinkers and artists of Paris. She wore fine clothes and lived in an elegant apartment near the Palais-Royal, neighbors with the novelist Colette.
She was safe, comfortable, and had everything to lose.
Then came 1942, and the Nazis began emptying Paris of Jewish families. Children separated from parents. Families loaded onto trains.
Suzanne could not walk past.
She started small. Took in one child. Fed her. Found her a safe home. Then another came. Then another. By 1943, Suzanne was running a full network. Creating false papers. Moving children across France to families willing to take them in. Working with the Red Orchestra resistance network. Using her wealth, her connections, and her aristocratic privilege to save lives.
In October 1943, the Gestapo broke her network. Someone had talked under torture. Names were given. Addresses exposed.
Before they came for her, Suzanne passed the list of every child she had hidden, every address, every name, to a trusted underground contact. She protected them one last time.
For nine months in Fresnes Prison, she was tortured, interrogated, and condemned to death. She never gave up names. Never betrayed anyone.
On her cell wall, she scratched words that are still quoted today: ""Alone with my thoughts, there is still freedom.""
On August 12, 1944, thirteen days before American tanks rolled into Paris and the city rang with celebration she would never hear, Gestapo officer Heinz Pannwitz walked into her cell and shot her. She was 39 years old.
Every child Suzanne hid survived the war. Some had children of their own. Grandchildren. Great-grandchildren. Families that exist today because one woman looked at suffering and could not ignore it.
In 1985, forty-one years after her death, Yad Vashem recognized Suzanne Spaak as Righteous Among the Nations.
Most people have never heard her name.
There is a street in Paris named after her. A plaque where she was executed. A book her daughter wrote documenting her life.
She died just close enough to touch freedom. Just far enough to miss it.
Now you know her name.
🚨WHAT THE HELL?!!!
Two Starbucks employees who FOUGHT OFF ARMED ROBBERS AND HELD THEM FOR THE POLICE...
...have been FIRED for "violating company policy" because they did not just comply.
They risked their lives to defend the store and customers... and Starbucks FIRED THEM for it.
This happened at a St. Louis Starbucks where 2 masked men walked in, pointed a gun, and demanded money.
Everyone hit the floor and one robber shoved a female employee to the ground.
A worker named Michael Harris tried to just give them the cash to make them leave. They pistol-whipped him in the back of the head.
Then his coworker Devin Jones-Ransom made a split-second decision and TACKLED the gunman into the drive-thru window.
The weapon broke... and they realized it was fake. They subdued the robber and held him for police.
Both robbers were convicted and they're sitting in prison right now BECAUSE of these two young men.
And a few weeks later, after the attention died down and Starbucks FIRED BOTH OF THEM.
The reason?
They "violated company policy" by not just complying to being robbed.
Just so we are clear... a man gets a gun smashed into his skull, fears for his life, fights back, helps put two armed robbers in prison...
...and Starbucks FIRES HIM FOR IT?!!!!
WHAT KIND OF CRAP IS THIS?!!!!!!
Little Skye and Rod Stewart were found in the worst possible conditions. Both close to death.

On July 9, 1989, Patricia Stallings rushed her three-month-old son Ryan to a hospital in St. Louis, Missouri.
He refused to feed.
He was weak, breathing rapidly, and clearly in serious distress.
Doctors performed blood tests. The results appeared to show dangerously high levels of ethylene glycol—the main ingredient in antifreeze.
Patricia insisted she had never harmed her son.
No one believed her.
Ryan was immediately placed in foster care. Weeks later, Patricia was allowed only a brief supervised visit. The following day, Ryan became critically ill once again.
On September 4, 1989, he died.
The next day, Patricia was arrested.
To investigators, everything seemed to fit.
The laboratory reported antifreeze in Ryan's blood.
Antifreeze was found in Patricia's basement.
Ryan's condition had worsened after seeing his mother.
The prosecution believed they had found a murderer.
But the evidence never truly fit the facts.
The laboratory readings would have required Ryan to consume an impossible amount of ethylene glycol—hundreds of liters—to produce those results.
No one questioned the calculations.
While waiting for trial, Patricia gave birth in prison to another son, David Jr.
She never even held him.
He was placed directly into foster care.
Then something extraordinary happened.
Within weeks, David Jr. developed the very same symptoms that Ryan had suffered.
Doctors at St. Louis Children's Hospital reached a completely different diagnosis.
David had methylmalonic acidemia, or MMA, a rare inherited metabolic disorder that produces compounds capable of confusing the laboratory tests then used to detect ethylene glycol.
The condition closely mimicked antifreeze poisoning.
Suddenly, everything changed.
If David had inherited MMA, Ryan almost certainly had it too.
That meant Patricia had never poisoned either child.
Despite this, the information was not effectively presented during her trial.
In January 1991, Patricia was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison.
The proof of her innocence already existed.
Then, only months later, the case was featured on *Unsolved Mysteries*.
Professor William S. Sly, a leading biochemist at St. Louis University, watched the broadcast and immediately suspected a metabolic disorder.
He arranged for Ryan's preserved blood samples to be tested again.
The diagnosis was confirmed.
Ryan had MMA.
Additional testing revealed that many laboratories using the same procedures had mistakenly identified MMA as ethylene glycol.
The testing itself was unreliable.
After reviewing the new evidence, prosecutor George McElroy sought independent expert opinions and ultimately moved to overturn Patricia's conviction.
She was released later that same year.
Ryan had never died from poisoning.
He died from an undiagnosed genetic disease.
Patricia had spent months in prison for a crime that never happened.
Today, her case is taught in forensic science, medicine, and law as one of history's clearest examples of how flawed laboratory testing, confirmation bias, and assumptions can combine to send an innocent person to prison.
The system believed it had found the answer.
It simply stopped looking.
And it was wrong.
Happy Birthday to Elon Musk, the man who refuses to quit no matter how hard the machine tries to break him. While most people fold the moment pressure hits, Elon keeps building, keeps fighting, and keeps pushing forward through regulators, legacy powers, media attacks, political mobs, and the same angry crowd that hates anyone who refuses to kneel. He did not just build companies. He bent reality. Electric cars became unstoppable, rockets became reusable, and free speech became non-negotiable again because one man had the courage to risk everything when everyone else was afraid to move. Every time they said it was impossible, he made it real. Every time they tried to crush him, he came back stronger. That is not normal strength. That is the spirit of a man placed here to push humanity forward, no matter the cost. The Bible says, “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles.” Today I pray that over Elon Musk. May God renew his strength, protect his family, sharpen his mind, strengthen his will, and give him total victory in every battle he is facing. May he live to see humanity become multi-planetary, may every ceiling they try to place above him shatter, and may the same people who mocked him be forced to watch him change the future again. Elon Musk is living proof that one man who refuses to quit can change the trajectory of civilization.
We live in a very rural area and have had our share of animals dumped by heartless people. Some we are able to keep and others we find homes for. This pure bred older German Shepherd was dumped on us about 4 years ago. We decided to keep him, named him Shep and gave him food and lots of TLC. But it was weeks before he would allow anyone to touch him. One day I picked up one of our barn cats and Shep ran to me, nuzzled the cat and allowed me to pet him for the very first time. He loves all of our cats and is more comfortable with them than he is with humans. Our vet says he most likely was abused before coming to us. He has a good life now and enjoys snuggling with a kitten we recently adopted…they are best buds.
United States Navy Petty Officer First Class (SEAL) Jeffrey Scott Taylor was killed in action on June 28, 2005 in Kunar Province, Afghanistan. Jeffrey was a 30 year old Corpsman from Midway, West Virginia. SEAL Team 10. Remember Doc Taylor. He is an American Hero.🇺🇸🎖️
In the middle of one of Venezuela's deadliest disasters, a mother's final act became a symbol of unconditional love.
When two powerful earthquakes struck Venezuela on June 24, 2026, entire neighborhoods were reduced to rubble. Buildings collapsed, families were separated, and thousands of people found themselves searching desperately for loved ones.
Among those affected was the family of Venezuelan footballer Héctor "Kike" Bello.
His wife, Andrea, was at home with their daughter Alana, who was just 1 year and 8 months old, when their apartment building in La Guaira collapsed.
As the structure came down around them, Andrea made a decision no mother should ever have to make.
She used her own body to shield her little girl.
Rescue teams worked tirelessly through the debris, hoping to find survivors.
Hours later, they discovered Alana alive beneath the rubble.
Andrea had protected her until the very end.
Sadly, she did not survive.
After the tragedy, Héctor Bello shared an emotional message that touched thousands of people.
He called Andrea "our favourite heroine."
He promised that one day, when Alana was old enough to understand, he would tell her exactly what her mother had done.
That she never stopped protecting her.
That she gave everything so her daughter could live.
That her final act was one of pure love.
Stories like Andrea's remind us that behind every natural disaster are families whose lives change forever.
Statistics tell us how many buildings collapsed.
How many people were injured.
How many lives were lost.
But they can never fully capture the courage, sacrifice, and love shown in moments like these.
A mother's love is often described as unconditional.
Andrea showed the world exactly what those words can mean.
Even in her final moments...
Her only thought was her daughter.
“I want to honor my husband of 31 years, Harry Hegg. He passed away from Pancreatic cancer caused by Agent Orange. 🕊️Bless you, hon. Hope Heaven is fun and you're no longer in pain. Love you.”

I have the worst news...
Sadly, a 2-year-old girl has passed away after "Kevin Kerjean" a migrant from the Central African Republic allegedly r*ped and m*rdered her in Chertsey Surrey.
A TWO-YEAR-OLD GIRL.
People are leaving flowers with notes on them.
This is beyond evil.
THE DOG WOULDN’T LET THEM TAKE HIS HEADLAMP OFF
After the Venezuela earthquake, the rescue team was finally done for the night.
But their search dog sat outside the tent, refusing to settle down. He wouldn’t let anyone take off his headlamp, and kept pulling toward an area they had already combed. His handler was exhausted, but finally said, “Alright, let’s go.” The dog led them straight back into the rubble.
Then they heard it a tiny cry. Under the broken concrete, wrapped in a blue blanket, was a baby still alive. Everyone else thought the search was over.
The dog knew it wasn’t.
