June 6, 1944. An American paratrooper jumps into Normandy in the dark and lands on the roof of a church.

By the end of the war he had been declared dead, held a funeral he didn't attend, escaped the Nazis, and fought his way toward Berlin in a Soviet tank unit.

His name was Joseph Beyrle. He's believed to be the only American soldier to serve in both the US Army and the Red Army during World War Two.

Beyrle was from Muskegon, Michigan. He joined the 101st Airborne, the Screaming Eagles. His buddies called him Jumpin' Joe.

On D-Day night his plane was hit by flak and he jumped early. He came down on a church roof, slid off, and lost his unit in the chaos. For a few days he fought on his own, blowing up a power station and cutting German communications.

Then he was captured.

Here's where it gets strange. A German soldier ended up wearing Beyrle's uniform and dog tags. That German was killed. When the body was found, the Americans identified it as Joseph Beyrle.

The army told his parents their son was dead. His hometown held a funeral mass for him. His obituary ran in the local paper.

Meanwhile, he was very much alive, being moved from one German prison camp to another.

He escaped more than once. One time he and two other prisoners jumped off a train heading east. They thought they were heading for Russia and freedom. They got lost and ended up in Berlin, where they were caught by the Gestapo, beaten, and tortured.

In January 1945, from a camp in eastern Germany, he finally made a clean escape. He went east, toward the gunfire. Toward the Soviets.

When he found a Soviet tank unit, he walked out with his hands up, holding a pack of Lucky Strike cigarettes, and shouted the only Russian he knew. American comrade.

It worked.

He asked to join them. And they said yes.

For about a month, an American paratrooper rode with Soviet tank crews as they pushed toward Germany. He used his demolition training. He fought. He was reportedly welcomed by a Soviet officer who was one of the rare women commanding a tank battalion.

Then a German dive bomber attacked. Beyrle was badly wounded.

He was evacuated to a Soviet hospital. Soviet Marshal Georgy Zhukov reportedly visited, heard his story, and gave him papers to get to the American embassy in Moscow.

When he showed up, the embassy didn't believe him. As far as the US was concerned, Joseph Beyrle was dead. They held him under guard until his fingerprints proved who he was.

He made it home to Michigan in April 1945.

In 1946 he got married. In the same church where they'd held his funeral.

Decades later, in 1994, he was honored at the White House by President Bill Clinton and Russian President Boris Yeltsin for serving both countries.

And the last twist. His son, Joseph Beyrle II, grew up to become the United States Ambassador to Russia.

The videos emerging from Africa of Islamists slaughtering Christians are truly satanic.

I have seen a video of Jihadists cutting the limbs off young Christian men and women before beheading them.

I genuinely don't understand why nobody is talking about this.

In London, British scientists have created a frog embryo without a head - a breakthrough that could lead to the production of headless human clones to provide organs and tissue for transplant.

You were regularly in contact with USCIS.

When TPS was cancelled it was not "automatic." The cancellation is effective at the end of the current TPS period, or not less than 60 days later depending on which is longer.

You knew the day of departure was going to come at some point. It was your mistake to treat the situation as if you were suddenly a citizen and could built a life as such.

As a visa holder, you could have started the process to become a permanent resident alien while TPS was in place.

This is why only about 1000 Somalis are subject to removal with the ending of TPS when nearly 100,000 came into the U.S. They normalized their status while under TPS protection.

This is the Hillary Clinton I know.

As some of you know, I was the Air Force Military Aide for Bill Clinton, lived in the White House, traveled everywhere they traveled, and carried the “nuclear football.” As such, I was always in close proximity to both Bill and Hill.

Among the military who served in the White House and the professional White House staff, the Clinton administration was infamously known for its lack of professionalism and courtesy, though few ever spoke about it. But when it came to rudeness, it was Hillary Clinton who was the most feared person in the administration. She set the tone. From the very first day in my assignment.

When I first arrived to work in the White House, my predecessor warned me. “You can get away with pissing off Bill but if you make her mad, she’ll rip your heart out.” I heeded those words. I did make him mad a few times, but I never really pissed her off. I knew the ramifications.

I learned very quickly that the administration’s day-to-day character, whether inside or outside of DC, depended solely on the presence or absence of Hillary. Her reputation preceded her. We used to say that when Hillary was gone, it was a frat party. When she was home, it was “Schindler’s List.”

In my first few days on the job, and remember I essentially lived there, I realized there were different rules for Hillary. She instructed the senior staff, including me, that she didn’t want to be forced to encounter us. We were instructed that “whenever Mrs. Clinton is moving through the halls, be as inconspicuous as possible.” She did not want to see “staff” and be forced to “interact” with anyone. No matter their position in the building.

Many a time, I’d see mature, professional adults, working in the most important building in the world, scurrying into office doorways to escape Hillary’s line of sight. I’d hear whispering, “She’s coming, she’s coming!” I could be walking down a West Wing hallway, midday, busier than hell, people doing the administration’s work whether in the press office, medical unit, wherever. She’d walk in and they’d scatter.

She was the Nazi schoolmarm and the rest of us were expected to hide as though we were kids in trouble. I wasn’t a kid, I was a professional officer and pilot. I said “I’m not doing that.”

There was also a period of time when she attempted to ban military uniforms in the White House. It was the reelection year of 1996, and she was trying to craft the narrative that the military was not a priority in the Clinton administration. As a military aide, carrying the football, and working closely with the Secret Service, I objected to that. It simply wasn’t a matter of her political agenda; it was national security. If the balloon went up, the Secret Service would need to find me as quickly as possible. Seconds matter. Finding the aide in military uniform made complete sense. Besides, what commander in chief wouldn’t want to advertise his leadership and command? She finally relented because the Secret Service weighed in.

The Clintons are corrupt beyond words. Hillary is evil, vindictive, and profane. Hillary is a bitch.

All-star U.S. Ninth Circuit Judge Patrick Bumatay writes a powerful dissent.

The Supreme Court of the United States must intervene, to prevent over 20,000 potential illegal voters in California--a federal crime--from disenfranchising American voters.

Watching Charlie Kirk get murdered on a livestream and then watching left-wingers celebrate the murder was infinitely worse than your friend getting deported for being in the U.S. illegally.

Maybe take a deep breath and calm down. It’s nice that you care about your friends and want to take care of them, but the constant emotional crashouts are embarrassing.

And for someone who claims that the mere concept of the friend-enemy distinction in politics is evil and Nazi-esque, you sure do spend a lot of time carving out legal exceptions for your friends, spreading false information on their behalf, and smearing anyone who disagrees with you as worse than Hitler.

That doesn’t make you evil, but it does make you a hypocrite and an emotionally incontinent mess who maybe should consider taking a break from the Internet for a while.

BREAKING UPDATE: Authorities in Billings, MT, have DECLINED to press felony charges against the student who allegedly stabbed a teacher after a nearly 10-month investigation.

We’re told the student who stabbed a teacher is TRANSGENDER.

The school's superintendent released a statement saying he's "frustrated" that no charges were being filed.

Why are police protecting a violent trans??

After the Palisades and Altadena fires, Karen Bass gloated on social media about her executive order to speed up rebuilding.

But if you actually looked at the executive order, as I did, you saw that it was complete bureaucratic BS.

I had dinner with someone who STILL doesn't have his permits almost two years later. NOTHING is getting built. Meanwhile, scammers are draining elderly victims who’ve already lost everything.

Becerra is the same kind of USELESS career politician as Bass. As governor, I'll get these families their homes back.

UPDATE ON THE OSTROUSHKO CASE: The Ostroushko family, who violently assaulted me back in April, tried to file a “motion to dismiss” their criminal case stating that THEY are experiencing “vindictive and selective prosecution”.

They’re framing their federal charges as “prosecution and harassment” by the Trump administration, for “protesting ICE abuses”, while conveniently leaving out how the whole family took turns attacking me.

They made sure to call me a “right wing provocateur and “troll” and characterized their attack on me as a “scuffle” in which Christopher Ostroushko “shoved me in the back”.

(Reminder, that their attack was so unprovoked and brutal, that even left wing streamers who were on the ground that day were defending me).

The DOJ has responded asking for this motion to be DENIED, stating that the prosecutors on this case have been neutral in prosecuting cases involving both Democrats and Republicans.

Chris, Deyanna and Paige Ostroushko, who took turns attacking me outside of the Whipple ICE facility, have filed restraining orders against me in an attempt to silence my reporting (all of which have since been dismissed), have gone on multiple news shows to slander me and have repeatedly lied in legal documents in an attempt to make public scrutiny of their actions go away.

Luckily for me, everything was caught on camera, including Chris instructing his daughter to attack me, Chris himself slamming me to the ground and Deyanna laughing about how she “tackled me” and then ran.

Their next hearing is in TWO days and will determine if we go to trial or not.

Update to come…

[Spencer Pratt @spencerpratt]

I hate to be this cynical, but I’ll be honest…running for Mayor exposes you to things that make you believe the city is actually being overtaken by demonic energy. Drive south Fig at night. Go to 6th and San Pedro. You see children openly prostituting, drug zombies setting dogs and cats on fire, babies born to crackheads and tossed in a dumpster, dead people just lying in the streets…that’s not even to mention the dozen neighbors of ours who burned alive in what is now a crumbled hellscape.

Many times I wondered if the city’s problems weren’t beyond the reach of any politician’s capacity to actually fix. There is a cultural and spiritual rot that can’t be fixed at the ballot box. Until we fix the culture, we are kinda just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic and the shit we shovel around every 4 years doesn’t really mean a thing.

[mikayla @honeyNonABG]

I am not kidding about the demons in LA btw.

My best friend works at McDonald’s and some dude tried getting her to be his sugar baby while she was handing him his order in the drive thru.

My other friend was on a film set and one of the actors tried getting him to be in her p0rno outta nowhere while he was helping her down a hill.

And I was acting in a film where I learned one of the stuntmen was invited to this house and they were trying to get him into a cult while doing a bunch of demonic rituals.

Bunch of unclothed men in bed. No clothes at all. He immediately left.

Not to mention I’ve been followed and attacked by drug addicts. I know people who were almost killed.

DONT COME TO LA. DONT DO IT.

Notice how she doesn’t tell you HOW he died. If she tells you that, her talking point falls apart. So she leaves it out.

He killed himself.
