Boy, having more airlines might be a good idea, Senator. I wonder if two smaller airlines merging might create more heft, allowing them to better compete with the big four. (We are often governed by morons who have never created a single job or created a single dollar of profit).
The Shawshank Redemption flopped in theaters, $16 million worldwide on a $25 million budget, opening weekend just $727,000 in 1994, it disappeared almost immediately.
It lost all seven Oscar nominations to Forrest Gump, no awards, no box office, the studio labeled it a failure and the director walked away devastated.
Then something quiet started happening, VHS rentals, cable reruns, someone watching it alone on a Tuesday night and calling a friend the next morning.
People who watched it told their friends, their friends told more people, it spread slowly, one recommendation at a time, no marketing push just genuine word of mouth.
By 2008 it reached number one on IMDb, the audience voted it the greatest film ever made and it has stayed there ever since.
It took 14 years to get there, a box office bomb turned into the highest rated film in history, built entirely by viewers long after the studio had already moved on.
DUSTY MAY WINS IT ALL IN ONLY HIS SECOND YEAR AS MICHIGAN’S HEAD COACH 😤
He’s just the fifth coach in NCAA history to become a champion in his first two seasons at a school 👏
Team of the ages. All season the big guys dominated, but tonight Cadeau Gayle and McKenney made the difference. Great passing, D, and clutch Free Throws. Dusty May you pushed all the right buttons. National Champions!! 〽️🏆
@EricLDaugh Rent prices crashing in Arizona? Turns out basic economics (fewer illegals hogging housing = more for Americans) works when you actually enforce the border.
Who knew “We voted for this” would include 3 months free rent? Next: groceries plummeting too. Keep cooking, 47! 🏠💸🇺🇸
🚨 Here is the full 40 minutes of my crew and I exposing California fraud, Minnesota was big but California is even bigger... We uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences. Like it and share it, the fraud must STOP.
We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any pushback from the public and politicians.
It is time to EXPOSE IT ALL and end America's fraud crisis.
They called him unqualified. They said he didn’t have the experience. He wasn’t a high enough rank. They said Trump only picked him because he was on FOX. They were wrong. ALL of them.
That man, Pete Hegseth. They failed to tell you he had Ivy League school education. They fail to tell you how he was accepted to West Point but declined and went to Princeton University instead.
Right now I don’t give a rats ass what they have to say. Pete Hegseth may go down as one of the best leaders the Dept of War has ever had. Since Hegseth arrived on the scene on day one he returned masculinity and toughness in our military. He ended everything DEI and woke. Men no longer were allowed to dress up like women. He returned discipline through the ranks and restored American might. I’ve never been more proud of our military and we owe Pete Hegseth a giant thank you for returning our military as the clear cut number one world power that we always were before liberal Democrats tried to throw it all away for DEI and woke policies.
Strong leadership starts at the top and there will never be a stronger leader than President Trump. Trump chose Pete Hegseth and to say he’s been impressive is an all time understatement.
He had our military ready on day one. Putting like a well oiled machine. His mastery and precision couldn’t be more evident as when he went into Iran, took out their nuclear operations, by dropping bombs with pinpoint accuracy, destroying everything underground, then leaving before they even knew what hit them, all while losing no American lives.
After such perfection, Hegseth outdid himself when he went into Venezuela, took Maduro and his wife, all while Cuba was on guard protecting Maduro as well as China having military personnel there. He not only went into, grabbed Maduro and wife, but our military showed why our technology is the best in the world. He had our military disable the best technology China had also protecting Maduro, and showed the world, no one fucks with the American military. Once again, we went in, grabbed the prize and we were gone on an instant opening up many eyes in the world. Who was most impressed? China and Russia
It didn’t end there. We tried playing nice with Iran. We pleaded for a deal. Iran spent everything trying to rebuild what we destroyed. The Iran people starving, desperately pleaded by protesting with their leaders. What did their leaders do? They went and massacred 35,000 of it own people. The U.S. once again brought them to the table but Trump had enough. Enough stalling, enough of the games. Once Trump knew they weren’t interested in making any deals, he once again called on his Secretary of War, Hegseth and Pete followed with the combined help from Israel and opened up a can of whoop ass that has never been seen before. In only one week, Irans navy was decimated, their air force decimated, much of their artillery and rocket launchers decimated. Again, crisp, clean, precise and the country that is the most feared in the Middle East is on the brink of defeat. All their leaders are dead and once our military finishes the job, hopefully the Middle East will be a much more stable region. Hopefully the people will enjoy their freedoms without the fear of being executed.
With all going on, with all the hate coming from the Democrats and RINOs, all their negative press, with all the fake MAGA supporters throwing shade on everything the United States just accomplished, this will be remembered on the history books as one of the most impressive, successful military this great country has ever seen.
All under the watch of the greatest President in our history led by the greatest leader of the Dept or War this country has ever seen. Pete Hegseth. I know you’ve been through hell and back from all the scrutiny you’ve received on a daily basis, but I want to thank you along with most of the country for keeping us all safe from a country that vowed Death to America. God Bless. My two cents
🚨 BREAKING: By stroke of pen and flanked by MANY Latin American heads of state, President Trump forms the SHIELD OF AMERICAS coalition, an initiative that will decimate the cartels and narco-terrorists in our hemisphere
Only Trump could pull this off. DEFEND THE AMERICAS! 🇺🇸
Tonight, you are seeing a different @potus at the #stateoftheunion . He is not cocky or a ‘big talker’ which is a hallmark and the funniest part of Trump. Tonight however, he has been funny in different ways, but he is not arrogant, he is confident, he knows who he is, and now WHAT HE HAS DONE. His track record in this last year doesn’t need any boasting. It speaks for itself. Time will tell, but my guess is that in 100 years, it will be George Washington, Father of our country, Lincoln, the savior of the Union and Trump, the REFOUNDING Father of the US. Thank you @realDonaldTrump
In his masterful performance, Cade Cunningham:
▪️ Became the first player in Pistons franchise history to record 40+ PTS, 10+ AST, 5+ REB and 5+ 3PM in a game.
▪️ Joins LeBron James (2x) and Allen Iverson as the only opposing players with 40+ PTS and 10+ AST at Madison Square Garden.
