Never would I have imagined, growing up in California, that one day I’d have the honor of helping kick off America’s 250th celebration alongside the President of the United States.

Personal News: I am writing as a mother and living organ donor.
Twenty years ago this month, our youngest son Peter received a life-saving liver transplant at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh @ChildrensPgh
With Peter’s permission, I’m sharing a photo taken with his older brother a few weeks before his 2006 transplant, when he was in liver failure.
Four years later, he won gold at the U.S. Transplant Games in Madison, Wisconsin. And here he is today—healthy, strong, and thriving.
What I didn’t fully appreciate in 2006 was that Peter and I were part of pioneering research aimed at reducing the risk of organ rejection in pediatric patients.
Even though I donated a segment of my liver to Peter—and as mother and son we are genetically similar—the new testing protocol still helped lower his chances of rejection.
Peter and I participated in a research project that developed a simple blood test called Pleximmune @plexision
It predicts the likelihood of rejection in pediatric patients by analyzing the unique immune chemistry of both the child and the donor.
The test also helps doctors determine exactly how much immunosuppression a child needs to keep rejection at bay.
Our family knows firsthand how valuable this early warning system truly is.
When Peter hit his growth spurt in his early teens, like so many pediatric transplant recipients, he needed increased immunosuppression.
The Pleximmune test predicted this need months in advance, giving his doctors time to adjust his care before problems arose.
The threat of rejection is a cloud that hangs over every transplant patient and family.
This test is making a real difference. It helps prevent rejection and can save tens of thousands of dollars for families and insurance companies.
This is where common sense matters.
In early July, the research team is preparing an appeal to Medicare @MedicareGov to price the Pleximmune test "fairly and consistently" with similar diagnostic tests.
Right now, only a small percentage of the cost of the test for pediatric patients is being reimbursed.
As the team told me, “Fair pricing is the lifeblood of a company’s ability to provide patients with more informed care and continued innovation.”
Today, Pleximmune has been used to test roughly 10% of children under age 21 who have received liver or intestine transplants in the U.S.
If you want to support this important work and help more pediatric patients and their families benefit...
Send a note to your senator, let them know to escalate the matter with Medicare so the appeal gets a fair hearing.

I started gymnastics in 1974, just two years after Title IX passed.
Gyms were popping up all over the country because 1) Olga Korbut was a sensation at the 1972 Olympics; 2) and Title IX gave busy athletic little girls like me the opportunity to take our passion for sport beyond recreation.
If we worked hard, we could compete on our private club teams at the state and even national level; in our schools, through high school and into college.
I loved the sport instantly. By the time I was 10, I made my first national team. When I was 17, I became the National Champion, just 9 months after breaking my femur at the World Championships.
Every ounce of discipline and perseverance in my soul I owe to what I learned as a young gymnast.
Every little girl deserves this same chance to compete. And to win.
I'm so grateful to the women who came before me, who fought for Title IX which ensured equal opportunity for little girls like the one I was 50 years ago.
I'm going to keep fighting to ensure every little girl has a shot at fair and safe competition in the future.
Please join me. Title IX is worth fighting for.
The ones worried about separating families of illegals getting deported didn’t have a problem separating your family members during COVID.
Never forget that.
When Obama and Biden were presidents, I didn't agree with many of their policies. I was upset when Obamacare passed. I was angry when Biden enacted so many executive orders in the first 100 days to cancel policies that I supported. Oh... and so much more.
But NEVER ONCE did I cheer for the failure of anything. I knew many of their policies were wrong, but I never hoped that our country would not succeed or that their presidencies would fail.
The people desecrating the Reflecting Pool are not only cheering for our country's demise, they are actively promoting it. This goes beyond TDS. They are truly mentally ill people. I hope they are incarcerated for a VERY long time.
Your heart should breaking as you read this. Because you all need to realize something about Usha Vance Karoline Leavitt Jennifer Hegseth and Jeanette Rubio These four women right now are each carrying something that most people will never fully understand. Usha Vance pregnant with her fourth child baby boy coming in July and JD chose no formal leave. She is home. Alone. Counting the days. While her husband carries America. Karoline Leavitt who stood at the most powerful podium in America for 39 weeks pregnant never missed a single day. Came back to work four days after having baby Niko. And today holds baby Vivi knowing another briefing is always just around the corner. Jennifer Hegseth who holds seven children together every single time Pete boards that plane. Every deployment. Every trip. Every morning the kids ask where dad is. She answers. Alone. And Jeanette Rubio who has watched her husband cross three continents in one week away from her away from their children for a country that may never fully know her name.
Four women. Four completely different sacrifices. One identical truth. They never asked America to see them. They never posted about what it costs. They never once made it about themselves. They just held everything together. Quietly. Completely. So their husbands could hold America. And today we just need every American to stop for one moment. And say something these four women have waited too long to hear. Thank you. Not for your husbands. For you. For everything you carry that nobody films.
God cover Usha. Cover Karoline. Cover Jennifer. Cover Jeanette. And remind every one of them America sees you. Even on the days it forgets to say it. Make sure to repost this today. Because these women deserve to be seen.
There’s a fitting irony in the fact that President Donald J. Trump was born on June 14th.
On this day in 1777, the Continental Congress adopted the design of the first American flag: the enduring symbol of our nation’s FREEDOM, COURAGE, and PROMISE.
Generations later, that date would become known as Flag Day, first recognized nationally by President Woodrow Wilson in 1916 and officially established by President Harry Truman in 1949.
As someone who wore the uniform and fought beneath that flag, I understand what it represents. It is more than cloth and colors.
It is sacrifice, opportunity, excellence, and the enduring belief that America remains the greatest force for freedom the world has ever known.
In my lifetime, I have never seen a Commander-in-Chief display a deeper love for this country or a fiercer commitment to defending its people, values, and future than President Trump.
45 and 47.
One of one.
To our leader, our President, and I am proud to say, my friend..
Happy Birthday.
And to the GREATEST flag ever flown and the nation it represents:
Happy Flag Day. 🇺🇸
This is:
The United States Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and Homeland Security Advisor, Stephen Miller:
“The reason why those Americans in North Carolina, those mothers, those fathers, those precious little children, were left to die begging their government for help that never came is because the Democrats turned FEMA into an illegal alien resettlement agency.”
Meaning:
The Democrats said FEMA had NO money and left fathers to die in Maui.
The Democrats said FEMA had NO money and left mothers to die in East Palestine, Ohio.
The Democrats said FEMA had NO money and left children to die in North Carolina.
BUT FEMA had an extra $1 BILLION to spend on illegals, including Social Security, Medicaid, SNAP, and voter registration.
And, as a bonus, they complain that Elon Musk is now a trillionaire.
This is Tyson Goodsell he was a WHITE 17yo football player who was EXECUTED IN COLD BLOOD by a gang of Somalis in Mankato, MN on May 23, 2026.
Ambushed and shot in the head.
Tyson was gunned down execution-style in his Hyundai at 11pm after leaving work.
His car smashed into a townhome.
His mother heard the gunshots from her own house.
Main shooter Abdikhadar Fakhi Mohidin (20, Somali)
Accomplices Ahmed Fuad Mohamud, Ahmed Mohamed Mohamud, and Ryan Wolner also busted.
How many more young White boys get taken from their family before America wakes up?
Media blackout, open borders, soft-on-crime bullshit, and “diversity” flooding White areas….
This stops when we stop importing and tolerating it.
Deport them all.
Cancer is the cruelest disease, because it appears as part of the host body. The reality, of course, is that it is an insidious invader. The hordes of Muslim invaders welcomed by Democrats into America are a Sharia Law cancer.
And it is spreading like only a cancer can.
To you, it's just a Cracker Barrel parking lot. To me, it's where I gave my life to Jesus Christ.
I was 21 years old. I was working at the Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee after some of the worst years of my life. I'd made mistakes. Real ones.
I grew up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, raised by a mom who worked hard and didn't accept excuses. But I made decisions that should have ended my story before it ever really started. By the grace of God, they didn't. But every day, I was carrying them.
One afternoon, a church group came into the restaurant, just back from a revival. I served them their meals like I served any other table. But something happened while I was serving them. I can't fully explain it to you. The Lord spoke to me. He said, “Stop running from Me.”
It knocked me back.
I went to find the table, and they were all gone. I could see through their windows that they were getting on their bus, and I knew deep down that if I let them drive away, I was going to keep running. So I went outside. The last woman, just as she was stepping onto the bus, turned to me and asked, “Are you okay?”
I told her, “No ma’am, I’m not okay.” I told her the Lord was telling me to stop running.
That whole bus emptied out, stood with me in the parking lot of a Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee, Florida, and prayed over me right there.
I gave my life to Christ that day. Right there.
I still get emotional about it. Because I know what I was before that moment, and I know what He's done since. He gave me a wife who shares my faith. He gave me three sons. He gave me a career, a community, a calling I never would have dared to ask for. He took a kid from Crown Heights who’d run out of chances and gave him a life that doesn't make sense apart from grace.
People ask me sometimes why I talk about it. Why I bring up the parking lot. Why I don't just keep that part private and let folks see the polished version.
I'll tell you why.
Because there's a young man out there right now — maybe in Tallahassee, maybe in Tampa, maybe in Miami, maybe in a small town in the Panhandle — who thinks his story is already over. Who thinks the mistakes he's made disqualify him from the life he could have had. Who thinks God doesn't want anything to do with somebody like him.
I'm here to tell him: that's a lie.
In life, you're not who you are at the lowest point. You're who you choose to become after.
The Lord met me in a Cracker Barrel parking lot. He'll meet you wherever you are.
You just have to stop running.
I’m a simple man...
All I wanted from the GOP was to cut waste, fraud, and abuse from government spending + make sure that only Americans were voting.
That’s ALL I wanted, the bar was sooooo low…
…and they couldn’t even do that
WHAT ON EARTH are the GOP actually doing??!!!

Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration.
More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸
JUST IN: Sheridan Gorman's family blames sanctuary policies and "failed removal policies" for the murder of their daughter, allegedly by an illegal immigrant with a criminal background.
Speaking outside the Cook County courthouse following a discovery hearing, Sheridan's father, Thomas Gorman, says failed border enforcement, removal policies, and local cooperation allowed Jose Medina to remain in the country and ultimately cross paths with his daughter.
"Jose Medina is responsible for what he did to Sheridan, but he did not get to Sheridan himself."
"He got there through a broken system, through failed border enforcement, failed removal policies, failed local cooperation, and sanctuary policies that put ideology before safety."
"American families deserve to be protected in their own country."
