Thanks, Elon! Glad to be back.

🚨 NOW: We’ve discovered THOUSANDS of dollars worth of P100 respirators placed outside of ICE Newark tonight

Each respirator (with their add’l filters) run $75 EACH M

And they’re just LAYING AROUND

Again: WHO is funding this?! Even if it’s MULTIPLE people, who is donating and who is in control of the fund?!

[Mark Reid @MarkMReidisback]

@bmasters46 True. Although: considering the works of both, who would more likely be in need of a good thrashing? And considering the 20 year age difference, Hemingway basically just beat up an old guy (37 v 57). And bragged about it. 🙄 (I admit to bias: Stevens is a fellow alumnus)

🚨 BREAKING: Leftist terrorists are ABSOLUTELY WINNING here outside Delaney Hall in Newark, and civilian staffers are getting NO SUPPORT as their cars are smashed

THIS IS A JOKE.

NATIONALIZE THE GUARD IF THE STATE REFUSES TO ACT

ICE agents and civilian staffers should NOT be subjected to this abuse. PERIOD.

A stained glass window at Washington National Cathedral depicting Lee at the Battle of Chancellorsville in 1863; in 2017, the window was removed because liberals want you to be ashamed of your country's history.

Maybe if Robert E. Lee had held a gun to a pregnant woman we would be allowed to honor him.

Spencer Pratt posted this on Instagram as his nearly double-digit lead to make the runoff in the Mayoral race is slipping away due to “late mail-in ballots.”

“God always wins.”

[Jarvis @jarvis_best]

The Pope is going to issue an Encyclical about this.

[Spencer Pratt @spencerpratt]

Patience.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

🤔

Can’t think of a single time this happened

[The Iceman @the_iceman64]

90% of the soldiers on the first boats to hit the beach didn't live to see the end of the day. Look at those faces. Some of them never made it to 18.

Never forget that they paid the ultimate price for our freedom. We live our lives the way we do because of them.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

Going through the airport in my “I Support ICE” shirt & getting TONS of compliments.

A group of students just went through TSA wearing MAGA hats.

A shift is happening — & enthusiasm is growing — but we need big & beautiful turnout this November.

He says all the right things, but check his voting record.

[Scott McCrea Adventures @ScottMcCreaWest]

Hurray for Go West Magazine! Give it a try!

[Wilfred Reilly @wil_da_beast630]

Did they just openly steal the election from Pratt?

Reading the politics sites, he officially got "zero" out of 24,000 late votes cast in LA - but that might change to "16?"

🚨 JUST IN: The Chicago Bears just APPROVED a massive plan to flee the blue city of Chicago, and Mayor Brandon Johnson is furious and STUNNED

The Bears are headed to RED INDIANA 👏🏻

FAFO 🔥

This is blue policies coming back to severely bite them.

Indiana’s GOP Governor is predictably ecstatic!

Exactly what happens when you destroy your city from within.

[Voices of WW2 @VoicesofWW2]

On the night of June 5, 1944, Eisenhower stood on a tarmac in England and watched 13,000 paratroopers board their planes.

He already knew what Air Marshal Leigh-Mallory had told him in private: up to half of them might not survive the night. 6,500 men. Dead before a single soldier touched the beach. Eisenhower had approved the mission anyway, called the decision "soul-wracking," and said nothing to the men.

Instead he drove out and visited them.

He chatted. Laughed. Asked where they were from. Shook hands. Cracked jokes. Not one of them knew their general had just signed what might be their death warrant.

When the last plane disappeared into the dark sky, his driver Kay Summersby looked over at him.

There were tears running down his face.

He drove back to Telegraph Cottage in silence. Then he sat down, picked up a pencil, and wrote a note he prayed no one would ever read.

"Our landings in the Cherbourg-Havre area have failed to gain a satisfactory foothold and I have withdrawn the troops. My decision to attack at this time and place was based upon the best information available. The troops, the air and the Navy did all that bravery and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt it is mine alone."

Look at what he edited.

He had first written "This particular operation." He crossed it out and replaced it with "My decision to attack." Then he pressed the pencil down hard and drew a long, firm line under the words "mine alone."

He misdated it July 5 instead of June 5.

He was so consumed with dread he had forgotten what month it was.

He folded the note and put it in his wallet. He carried it there as 156,000 men stormed the beaches of Normandy. When word came back that the beachhead had held, he took it out, crumpled it, and threw it in the trash.

An aide quietly pulled it out and saved it.

That note is now behind glass at the Eisenhower Presidential Library in Abilene, Kansas. You can still see where the pencil pressed hardest.

Right under the words "mine alone."

82 years ago tonight.

I like this part of the process of writing poetry, when there's nothing left in the tank and instead of despairing, I turn to the poets who never fail to recharge me: Stevens, Basho, Niedecker, Oppen, Hopkins, and others. It's good to lie low and listen to the dead speak.

4 elderly Republicans have joined Democrats to help stop the SAVE Act.

[Viva Frei @thevivafrei]

Last night, the Los Angeles mayoral race had in 65.8% of expected votes, with 291,000 outstanding.

Today, they have 64.3% of expected votes in (less than yesterday) with an estimated 311,000 outstanding (more than yesterday).

Are they just going to keep increasing the number of remaining votes depending on how many they need to push Nithya Raman past Spencer Pratt?

[MOMof DataRepublican @data_republican]

Yep. I have worked the polls in Florida. No one has ever been turned away. If we have an issue, they are given a "provisional" ballot. Their issue is researched and a determination is made quickly. Voters show IDs. The number of ballots cast are reconciled with the number of people who actually vote.

I always vote absentee because I work on Election Day. I can go on-line after I mail in my ballot and confirm that it has been received. It's up to me to make sure my vote is counted.

See the difference? Florida emphasizes integrity. California over emphasizes access, and it has diluted the trust in our voting process for the entire nation!
