Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration.
More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸

Welp the neighbor got back to me and this is not her dog. The puppy was abandoned and she's been feeding him but she doesn't want him. She said she called animal control twice. He looks to be a Pit/Lab mix very smart, very sweet. I guess I have a new dog? Yall...idk.
I called the vet and made an appointment for a puppy check up. I do not want another puppy but also they'll kill this dog if I take him to the shelter I think as bully breeds are illegal in my county. What to do?
I have the worst news...
A North Carolina father, Lester Jones, has been k*lled after he heard his 16-year-old daughter being beaten by her boyfriend with a pistol.
The father stepped between her and the gun, shielding his daughter from the bullets, ultimately giving his life to save her as the boyfriend opened fire, k*lling him.
His daughter survived due to her father's intervention, but is in the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.
Police say Lester's daughter's 17-year-old boyfriend punched her in the face and pistol-whipped her with a 9mm handgun in Concord, NC.
The father stepped in between them to protect her, taking multiple rounds himself, ultimately giving his life to save her.
The 17 year old, Keshaun Tirrell Degraffenreid, ran from police, but was eventually caught and has been charged with m*rder.
Due to Iryna's Law, he is being held in prison and will not get out. Please pray for the family and for the recovery of Lester's daughter who is in the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.

🆘 HOUSTON, THIS DOG NEEDS HELP NOW 🆘
A concerned citizen has been reporting this situation for over a week and has been making a nearly 2-hour commute every day to check on this dog.
According to reports, the dog is being left outside in extreme heat and is showing signs of distress, including excessive panting. Water that is placed outside quickly becomes extremely hot due to direct sun exposure, raising serious concerns about the dog's welfare and risk of heat-related illness.
This dog cannot speak for himself. The community's voice may be the only thing that gets him help.

Dog rescuer says that heartless predators are paying homeless people cash to throw their innocent dogs into savage, blood-soaked fighting rings for profit and entertainment.
This is pure evil. Defenseless dogs are being tortured and killed while current leadership looks the other way.
