The raw emotion when they finally meet their hero…
They’ve read about D-Day. But nothing — nothing — prepares you for standing in front of someone who lived it. Watch their emotion as these students meet World War II Veteran Jack Boeki, and you’ll understand why.

#dday #hero #thankyou #neverforget #freedom
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.
Erin Brockovich has launched a new interactive website and map tracking data centers across America — and the response has been overwhelming.
In just the first week, the site logged 1,690 resident complaints, with over 1,800 submissions coming in from 47 states shortly after launch.
Residents are reporting serious issues including:
• Massive water usage draining local supplies
• Sharply rising utility bills for nearby homes
• Constant 24/7 noise from fans and generators disrupting sleep and daily life
• Concerns over e-waste and potential PFAS contamination
This comes from the same Erin Brockovich who famously won a $333 million settlement against PG&E in the 1990s for contaminating drinking water in Hinckley, California.
The map shows operational, under-construction, and proposed AI data centers, allowing people to submit reports with photos and locations.
What the map shows~
• Major AI data centers (operational, under construction, or proposed) across the U.S.
• Overlaid with community-reported concerns (pins from residents emailing in issues).
• You can click markers for details, sources, and reports. It uses a leaflet/OpenStreetMap-based interactive map.
Stats from the site (as of ~May 24, 2026)
• 33 Operational (built & running)
• 44 Under Construction (announced or building)
• 27 Proposed (in pipeline/pending approval)
• Hundreds/thousands of community reports nationwide (earlier reports mentioned 2,700+ submissions from 49 states, with Texas leading heavily).
Many Americans are now asking whether the rapid expansion of data centers is coming at too high a cost to local communities and the environment.

Do you recognize any of these items? LeRoy Police are working to reunite them with their correct gravesites after they were taken from gravestones or vandalized. We have more photos in this story. https://t.co/a8OjgBA3oI
Journalists are the only employees haughty enough to believe their employers work for them.
They expect liberal/progressive owners and editors to support activist liberal reporting. If a centrist (Bari Weiss), or Heaven forbid a conservative becomes the boss, Katie bar the door. They’ll moan, whine and go down kicking (Scott Pelley).
The MSM today is liberals writing for liberal editors in organizations owned by liberals where their work is read by liberals.
And they wonder why they’re losing readers and viewers.
During the month of May, 81 kids signed up to take on The 50 Yard Challenge and begin serving their communities by mowing free lawns for the elderly, disabled individuals, single parents, veterans, and first responders. Since starting this the organization in 2016, we are now up to 6,426 kids who have signed up nationwide for the 50 yard challenge and are closing in on an amazing milestone of 6,500 participants. To every parent who has encouraged their child to get involved, thank you. Together, we’re raising a generation that understands the value of service, hard work, and giving back. If your child is looking for a way to make a real difference in their community, we invite them to take on The 50 Yard Challenge. One act of kindness can change a life—and it all starts with one lawn at a time.

We’re entering a new era for the 50 Yard Challenge.
For years, kids who completed 50 lawns earned their black shirt… but now, we’re taking it to another level.
Introducing The Black Jacket.
Inspired by champions—like the green jacket awarded at The Masters Tournament, every child who completes the 50 Yard Challenge will now be presented with a black and yellow varsity jacket.
This isn’t just something you wear… It’s something you earn.
50 lawns.
50 acts of kindness.
A lifetime impact.
Emmett is the first kid to rock one .
Kids will also soon earn patches /badges to put them on their jackets. Kids from now on Will get one . Kids of previous years can get one too , once we secure a sponsor for the jackets .
