@OrangeTiger1995 @PopeClemson1st Ok, you got me 60 vet students stared the inaugural cohort last month… When should we expect their NIL contributions to start rolling in?

@SenWarren @JetBlue @SpiritAirlines @JusticeATR @USDOT Predictable consequences.. fewer flights & higher fares from the airline going insolvent because they couldn’t get funding & weren’t permitted to merge

@dccommonsense Love your work! This is geopolitical economics. China has been diversifying its oil supply chain to insulate itself from disruptions should it act on its clearly stated commitment to retake Formosa by force. Taking cheap Iranian oil off the table for them inhibits their ability

For the past. For the present. For the future.

With tonight’s win, Lambert Lacrosse reaches a historic milestone — 300 victories in program history.

Tradition never graduates. Brotherhood lasts forever.

@beaverd Deloitte built and administers the software. State employees designed and operate the system. Don’t blame the mechanic when a drunk driver kills a someone

@Lane_Kiffin I hope LSU leaves your sorry ass at the airport this time next year. Loyalty is a two way street.

@JonnyCarrots007 You can’t paint “Best is the Standard “ on your wall and get angry when people hold you to it..

@dccommonsense Top 5 guys that I’d like to have a beer with. Thanks for what you do.

Mike Rowe: “It feels like somebody … shot the First Amendment.”

“I think something extraordinary is going to happen in the days and weeks ahead.”

“Something that never comes through on those videos—you see a guy in a tent … you see somebody on the other side, and you see the very thing the country was built on.”

“Debate, disagreement, and exchange of ideas.”

“[Charlie Kirk] went into the lion’s den. He was brave.”

“I wonder if he was fearless. I wonder if he was scared. I wonder if he just did it anyway.”

@RedditCFB Trolls make money off of you twice with this bullshit. Once when they spew hot takes and you take the bait, and a second time when they are wrong and you show back up to tell them. They don’t care if they are right or wrong. The more they trigger you the more they get paid

@SendMoreLawyers @EWErickson Fairygodboss was the most interesting and confusing 😆

@ClaraMurzynski @UltraDane For context, 51 Navy Crosses & 15 Medals of honor were awarded to men for their actions at Pearl Harbour on Dec 7 1941. Would students recognize photos of any of these heroes?

@jamiedupree Are there not hundreds if not, thousands of more important and timely questions for reporters to ask the speaker? This was a total gotcha attempt.

@HardcoreHistory Very sorry for your loss Dan. I was always impressed with Nick’s art for your works. This is a terrible way to learn his name.

We do not deserve dogs. 🥺💔 🇺🇸
🧵 1/2

“It was the dogs. The dogs are what got me.

A few years ago we visited the 9/11 Memorial Museum, and we saw a lot. Twisted steel girders. Baby-faced portraits of the deceased. Mutilated emergency vehicles.

But it was the dogs that wrecked me.

The dog exhibit is pretty small. Located in the far corner of the museum, with photographs of search and rescue dogs.

You see dogs nosing through rubble, wearing safety harnesses. You see them in their prime. They’re all deceased now. But they were spectacular.

There was Riley. Golden retriever. He was trained to find living people. But, he didn’t find any. Instead, he recovered the remains of firefighters. Riley kept searching for a live survivor, but found none. Riley’s morale tanked.

“I tried my best to tell Riley he was doing his job,” said his handler. “He had no way to know that when firefighters and police officers came over to hug him, and for a split second you can see them crack a smile—that Riley was succeeding at doing an altogether different job. He provided comfort. Or maybe he did know.”

There was Coby and Guiness. Black and yellow Labs. From California. Surfer dogs. They found dozens of human remains.

And Abigail. Golden Lab. Happy. Energetic. Committed. Big fan of bacon.

Sage. A border collie. Cheerful. Endless energy. Her first mission was searching the Pentagon wreckage after the attacks. She recovered the body of the terrorist who piloted American Airlines Flight 77.

Jenner. Black Lab. At age 9, he was one of the oldest dogs on the scene. Jenner’s handler, Ann Wichmann, remembers:

“It was 12 to 15 stories high of rubble and twisted steel. My first thought was, ‘I can't send Jenner into that…’ At one point, [Jenner] disappeared down a hole under the rubble and I was like, ‘Ugggggh!' Such a heart-stopping moment..."

Trakr. German Shepherd. Tireless worker. Worked until he couldn’t stand up anymore. Trakr found Genelle Guzman-McMillan, who was trapped for 27 hours among the debris. Genelle was as good as dead, until the cold nose poked through the mangled steel.

Apollo. German shepherd. An NYPD police dog. Coal-black muzzle. Liquid eyes. The first dog on the scene, only 15 minutes after the attacks. Apollo worked 18-hour days. Once, he was nearly killed in a fire during his search. But Apollo had been drenched in water and he was quick on his feet. No injuries.

Jake. Labrador. As a puppy, Jake was found on the side of the road in Dallas. Abandoned. Left for dead. Like trash. He had a dislocated hip and a broken leg. They made him a rescue dog.

Jake worked until his body threatened to collapse from exhaustion. After his shifts, local New York merchants saw his rescue-dog vest and treated him to free steak dinners in upscale Manhattan restaurants.”
