Great story from @alexpicfaber on Ben Strinden, who was a UND fan in the stands the last time the program played a Frozen Four game. This program has been a part of my blood ever since I was born. It means that much more, it's everything to me." https://t.co/QePbncv0gJ

✝️ THE EASTER MIRACLE 🇺🇸

On Good Friday, an American F-15E was shot down over Iran. The pilot was rescued within hours. But the second crew member — a Colonel and a man of deep faith — was missing. Wounded. Hunted. Alone in the mountains of Iran with a $60,000 bounty on his head.

He didn't panic. He climbed. He scaled rugged ridges while bleeding, treated his own wounds, found a cave — and waited.

All of Good Friday. All of Saturday. Hidden in a cave.

Meanwhile, the CIA launched a deception campaign to confuse Iranian forces — echoing what God did to the Syrian army in 2 Kings 7, causing the enemy to flee in confusion. 155 aircraft were mobilized. Special operators planned the rescue. As Sec. Hegseth said: "The call never dropped. The meeting never stopped. The planning never ceased."

Then came Easter Sunday morning.

When the Colonel finally activated his transponder, his first words were not coordinates. They were this:

"GOD IS GOOD."

Those who knew him weren't surprised. That's who he is.

Hegseth said it best: "Shot down on a Friday — Good Friday. Hidden in a cave, all of Saturday. Rescued on Sunday, flown out of Iran as the sun was rising on Easter Sunday. A pilot reborn. God is good."

Friends — that is not a coincidence. That is a message.

Jesus was crucified on Friday. In a tomb on Saturday. Risen on Sunday. And maybe you're in your own cave right now — wounded, hunted by your past, afraid the enemy is closing in.

God sees you. He never stopped planning your rescue.

"GOD IS GOOD."

All the time. 🙏✝️

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

He is Risen.

[Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson]

Today, Christians around the world observe Good Friday.

We call it “Good Friday” because what seemed like the darkest day led to the greatest gift of all time — the resurrection of Jesus Christ, His triumph over sin and death, and the gift of eternal life offered freely to all who believe.

For the ninth time, @undmhockey and Quinnipiac will face off, but tonight it's for a trip to the Frozen Four. Ben Strinden watched UND earn their eighth national title against the Bobcats in 2016 and was one of only two current UND players to face them at the Ralph in 2022.

The Budweiser Clydesdales are a six ton reminder of who built this country! Hats off to our farmers—and fourth-generation North Dakota farmer Brian Fransen from Coleharbor who is featured in this year’s Budweiser Super Bowl ad aptly named “American Icons.”

Thank you Brian for what you do and for representing us so well!

[Governor Kelly Armstrong @GovArmstrong]

North Dakota will participate in a new federal program that offers a tax credit for certain donations to Scholarship Granting Organizations that provide K-12 education scholarships and services.

This program incentivizes charitable giving to support our state’s most precious resource – its students.

We look forward to implementing the program with additional federal guidance to empower school choice and support North Dakota students in their education.

[Governor Kelly Armstrong @GovArmstrong]

In this special session, we have a generational opportunity to not only improve how health care is delivered to North Dakota citizens, but also help revitalize communities as people continue to seek out safe places to live with strong health care, great schools and abundant economic opportunity.

The $199M awarded in late December by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will help us strengthen rural health care by improving access, quality and health outcomes in rural communities over the next five years.

The challenges facing rural health care in ND demand bold action. By expanding access, promoting long-term wellness and driving innovation, we have the chance to be the healthiest state in the nation.
