John Walton (right) was the son of Walmart founder Sam Walton.

Instead of living as a trust fund baby, he joined the Special Forces and served in Vietnam. He later became a crop duster pilot, boat builder & charter school advocate.

He was a free spirit and man of great talent.

Democrats and Republicans are all hogs gorging themselves at the same taxpayer trough. When the unthinkable happened in 2016, their very existence was threatened by one man. Trump in turn pissed in that trough and said enough is enough.

When he did, they decided he had to go.

DID YOU KNOW? 🚗💨

​In 1968, the Ronson Company invented the "Robot-Liter"—a car dashboard accessory that dispensed an already lit cigarette at the push of a button.

Because who has the energy to fumble with a lighter while driving 60 mph? 😂

​Ironically, it was advertised as a safety feature! 🚬🤖

British Motor Corp, owners of the Mini, refused to donate any cars for "The Italian Job" (1969). The chief of Fiat Motors offered to donate all of the cars needed, including Fiat 500s in place of the Minis. Peter Collinson, the director of the movie decided that, as it was a very British movie, the cars should be British Minis.

Fiat still donated scores of cars for filming, as well as the factory grounds. The authorities refused to close the roads, but the Italian Mafia stepped in and shut whole sections of Turin down for filming. The traffic jams in this movie are real, as are people's actions during them.

P.S: On this day, 56 years ago, "The Italian Job" (1969) premiered in London, UK.
