His friends were able to get the attention of Pirates' outfielder Bryan Reynolds and they went wild after he got thrown a baseball for his birthday 😮🔥

A woman asked an elderly man, "How much do you sell these eggs for?"
The old man replied, "50 cents per egg, lady."
The woman said, "I’ll take 6 eggs for $2.50, or I won’t buy any."
The old seller answered, "You can pay whatever you want. It’s fine. I haven’t sold a single egg today, and I need to sell everything to feed my family."
She bought the eggs at her price, feeling like she had won.
Later, she got into her nice car and went to a fancy restaurant with her boyfriend. They ordered what they wanted, ate a little, and left most of it.
The bill came to €180, and the woman left €200, telling the owner it was a tip.
For the chef of a luxury restaurant, this might seem normal, but for the egg seller, it seems unfair.
The question is:
Why do we always feel the need to show power over a poor seller when we buy from them, yet we are so generous to those who don’t need our help?
I once read something that stayed with me:
“My father would buy goods from the poor at high prices, even when he didn’t need them. He would sometimes pay more than the asking price. I asked him why, and he said, ‘This is charity wrapped in dignity, my daughter.’”
I know most of you might not share this story, but if you’re one of the few who took the time to read it, please consider sharing it. Maybe you’re planting a good seed for someone to see.
This is a disgrace.
A Gulf War Marine veteran named Albert O’Toole who served this country, took a blast that left him with TBI, and was later diagnosed with Alzheimer’s was beaten by his aide Matthew Cox inside the New York State Veterans Home in Montrose, New York.
His wife Angela Sangro became concerned after seeing unexplained bruises and heavy sedation. She installed a hidden camera. The footage shows the aide yanking food out of Albert’s hands, grabbing him by the neck, throwing him into a chair, punching him, and striking him in the head with a broom while he cried out in pain. No one came to help.
The state fired the abuser.
But the federal VA? Still has him employed. Still paying him while the case drags on.
You make veterans fight through hell just to get the benefits and compensation they earned with their blood and sacrifice. You move fast to cut or reduce what’s owed to them.
But when one of your own is caught on camera assaulting a defenseless veteran? You keep him on the federal payroll like it’s nothing.
@SecVetAffairs you talk about accountability. Here it is. Fire this man from the VA now. No pay. No protection. No more dragging it out.
@SecWar our warriors come home broken from fighting for this nation. They deserve better than a system that protects abusers while making veterans fight for every dollar they earned.
@SpeakerJohnson this is on you too. Oversight without teeth is just theater. Do your job.
This isn’t how you treat the men and women who served. This is a betrayal.
Veterans FIRST.
Zero tolerance for those who abuse them.
Immediate action. No excuses.
If you’re not outraged by this, you’re not paying attention.
Semper Fi.

Texas pitcher Sam Cozart says, "Every time I go out and pitch, you'll see it. I kneel behind the mound, I say a prayer, I draw a cross, and I do it so that I'm going to the Lord when I go to the mound. And I use that as my platform every single day."
It’s not superstition. Sam says, “Jesus is my savior. He truly has saved me…Jesus is the one that has given me the strength to be able to continue to go out and pitch every single day and do what I do."

This power level “we don’t have on Earth.”
No paint. No dye. No brush strokes.
Just a burst so insane it only scorched the very top of the linen fibers.
This wasn’t made by human hands.
