It’s taken me two full days to respond to all my texts. I hadn’t been on social media until today and I’m overwhelmed by all the messages here too. So much love.

So I can’t help but to be filled completely with gratitude…

My story has been nothing short of remarkable and I am truly blessed to have had such an illustrious, accolade-laden and, most importantly, fun-filled career. I made my childhood dream become the most wonderful reality.

Throughout this journey, I’m so thankful to have been surrounded by great friends and to have built so many unbreakable connections with people that I’m very proud to call my family.

Most people go through life without ever experiencing a love like I have for Woods and E. That bond alone would have made this whole experience worth it.

There are far too many people to mention by name here, but to everyone who has ever supported me, guided me, helped me, taught me, cheered for me, praised me, stood up for me, and even rooted against me: Thank you. I appreciate you more than words can say.

My main mission has always been a simple one: To provide a comfortable life filled with heartwarming memories for my family. And, largely in part to all of you, I can proudly say that I have achieved that goal and more.

This wasn’t supposed to be a novel, so let me wind it down with some advice:

Do your best to live a life without regrets, control what you can control, always give it your all, and fight hard for what you believe in.

Do not ever compromise or accept less than your due when it comes to your worth.

Find the courage to believe in yourself and fearlessly pursue your goals and dreams, because anything is possible.

The kid that was too small, short, skinny, and scrawny was never supposed to make it in this land of giants…yet here we are.

And so…

…as the sun sets on one chapter, so too must it rise in another. Tomorrow is indeed…a New Day. ☀️

NEW: Police airlift a crocodile with the body of a 59-year-old businessman inside.

Local police in South Africa say they suspected the crocodile ate the man after observing it from drones. They then shot it and airlifted it off.

When they landed back on the ground, the crocodile was sliced open, and human remains were found.

The remains are believed to be those of 59-year-old Gabriel Batista, who had previously been swept away in raging floodwaters.

His ring was found inside the animal along with six other pairs of shoes, which authorities fear may belong to other victims.

On Monday, Batista reportedly tried to drive over a flooded bridge to reach his hotel and bar, but he and his truck were swept into the water.

He was then swept down the river, where crocodiles were waiting for prey. It is unclear if Batista was already deceased when he was eaten, but authorities believe some of his other remains may have been eaten by other crocodiles.

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.

The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

HORRIFIC: 31-year-old viral influencer Ashlee Jenae was found dead in her Tanzania hotel room after her white husband, Jon McCann, allegedly strangled her then hung her lifeless body to stage a suicide.

This cold-blooded monster allegedly murdered her right after proposing on her birthday during their luxury vacation.

He then kept posting on social media like nothing happened while Ashlee had him plastered all over her Instagram and he never once acknowledged her on his.

Her parents only found out through passport emergency contacts.

You propose to a woman on her birthday trip, then strangle her and stage her murder as a suicide the same week? Pure evil.

Jon McCann has allegedly been arrested pending charges.

What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.

NBA statement: "The NBA has completed an investigation of the Sacramento Kings and Head Coach Doug Christie's decision to foul intentionally late in the team's game against the Golden State Warriors on April 7. The league's investigation determined that Christie mistakenly believed that the Warriors were not in the penalty and therefore instructed his team to foul in an attempt to stop the clock and utilize one of the team's remaining timeouts. The investigation found that Christie made no intentional effort to give the Warriors a shooting foul, or to cause the Kings to lose the game."

Listen. Unwillingness to hear out others can make us unpleasant, less able to think, and far less able to accept correction in the case we may be wrong.

@dom_lucre Finally, the CIA seems to be putting in real work to cultivate figures like this. Give it a couple of days after those locations are sent and we’ll probably start hearing reports of Houthi figures being eliminated.
