August 8, 1982. A line drive foul ball hits a four year old boy in the head at Fenway. Jim Rice, realizing in a flash that it would take EMTs too long to arrive and cut through the crowd, sprang from the dugout and scooped up the boy.
He laid the boy gently on the dugout floor, where the Red Sox medical team began to treat him.
When the boy arrived at the hospital 30 minutes later, doctors said, without a doubt that Jim's prompt actions saved the boy's life. Jim returned to the game in a blood-stained uniform. A real badge of courage.
After visiting the boy in the hospital, and realizing the family was of modest means, he stopped by the business office and instructed that the bill be sent to him.
This is what a sports Hero looks like! ❤
Just now: @PressSec Karine Jean-Pierre releases statement on "House Republicans’ Tax Scam 2.0"
She writes, "The GOP Tax Scam 2.0 once again makes clear the House Republicans’ values: their priority isn’t reducing the deficit or out-competing the world, their priority is giving handouts to rich special interests and corporations at the expense of everyone else. Just days ago, House Republicans were demanding devastating cuts to programs hard-working Americans count on—from health care to public safety to Meals on Wheels—in the name of “deficit reduction.” Today, they are proposing to spend hundreds of billions on tax breaks for big corporations. That means they are prioritizing restoring tax breaks for big corporations over restoring tax credits that helped cut child poverty in half. And they would deliver those tax giveaways to large profitable corporations, while shipping clean energy jobs overseas and raising energy costs on American families by thousands of dollars a year."
Enough is enough!! You can STRIP Marjorie Taylor Greene’s power by chipping in $5 to register and turn enough Gen-Z voters in the closest districts:

Wrong classification! It was first second by Mbongochupi,
For beers- 33Export
Sports: Eto’o
Music: Makossa
The Cameroonian government has been limping on 3 tiny and shaky legs to carry people along and the deceit has failed
The Republicans want to show the true meaning of been typical bourgeoisies in a typical market oriented economy as the USA. The bourgeois class make laws to promote their interests not that of the common people!
Mefo are you surprise?
This is Cameroon which is very divided but used football, Makossa and beer to foster “national unity”
For 63, the economy, politics entire population and Biya have been using the above three shaky and tiny legs to be limping through. Today Biya exposed!
So my brother Kamto was a floating body in the CRM? That’s to say, even within his party, he was not important! No doubt after winning Pau Biya, the President instead locked up his petite fere Kamto Monsieur Le Professeur a Yaoundé 20! Ha-ha-ha!
Cameroun is very interesting!
Because most graduates in Cameroon, Nigeria and Kenya have turned to farming any food item since their governments cannot provide blue collar jobs. No government efforts at food production. It is instead a shame to the trio!!
She is the New Head of State now and after Biya she may handover the Family Presidency to Frank Biya son of Mr. Biya and Frank should not forget to hand over to his own son.
Biya’s family has taken Cameroonians hostage even the mighty Bamilikes shut up when Kamto was jailed! Ha!
Rebecca you are wasting your time teaching primitive people who see the State of Cameroon as CPDM property. Once a tree is bended from growth, it will never be strengthened again no matter how you may try. This mentality starts from the leadership “My CPDM”
L’etat, C’est Moi !
At the same time he calls you ashole people bringing crime and Covid to America and the presidents of your home countries asholes President?
From his words and deeds we all know where he belongs
The President deserves the great reception and Howard University deserves even more for I was taught in far away Africa by very sound academics like Late Professors Uya Lalu Umeh etc. whom I took as my role models to this day! The University has centuries of excellence.
Howard University Class of 2023, I was honored to join you today.
No graduating class gets to choose the world into which it graduates. But few classes enters a point in our history where it has the chance to change the trajectory of the country.
You face that inflection point.
