@towncriermg I have a minivan and I'm free Tuesday night. It looks like you have it taken care of, but feel free to reach out.

@viking_boer Grapevine is the nicest and has a small town feel, it's most likely also the most expensive of that group.

[Dude-San @AngryTexan89]

@viking_boer Grapevine but it's the most expensive. If you're looking for more rural I'd suggest looking at Weatherford, Peaster, or any of the small towns west of Fort Worth.

Today and everyday, we honor and remember the five officers who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect Dallas. Never forget July 7, 2016 💙

I haven’t seen many headlines about this today but it’s important we never forget the Dallas Massacre of July 7th, 2016 wherein 5 law enforcement officers were ambushed and slaughtered at a BLM protest in Dallas. It was the deadliest incident for US law enforcement since 9/11. Never forget.

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

You know what shook me when I was Muslim?

The story of Hosea. God tells a prophet to marry a woman He knows will betray him.

She does. She runs to other men. She ends up enslaved, sold, used up, worthless to the world.

And God tells Hosea to go BUY HER BACK.

To pay money for his own wife who cheated on him, and love her again. Hosea 3.

I thought it was the most humiliating command in the Bible. Why would any man do that?

Then I realized I was the wife.

I gave my heart to everything but God. I chased other masters. I sold myself cheap. I made myself worthless.

And God looked at me, the betrayer, and didn’t say “you’re not worth it.”

He said, “Name the price. I’m buying her back.”

That’s the Gospel. God doesn’t wait for the unfaithful to come crawling back clean.

He pays to redeem them while they’re still dirty.

Islam told me to make myself worthy of God.

Hosea showed me a God who pays to redeem the unworthy.

The cross was Him naming the price.

Praise the Lord.

John Adams, writing to Abigail, about the Continental Congress' vote in favor of independence on July 2, 1776:

"The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more. You will think me transported with Enthusiasm but I am not. -- I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. -- Yet through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will tryumph in that Days Transaction, even altho We should rue it, which I trust in God We shall not."

Tonight in 1776 the British fleet arrives in New York Harbor setting the stage for one of the most dramatic escapes in American history.

After the massive armada landed and the Battle of Long Island turned against the Americans, George Washington and roughly 9,000 Continental troops were trapped on Brooklyn Heights, outnumbered, outgunned and facing total destruction with the East River at their backs.

Later that night, Washington pulled off a masterful silent evacuation. Soldiers, cannons, horses and supplies were ferried across the river in every available boat, rowed largely by Marblehead mariners. As dawn approached and the operation was still underway, a thick, providential fog rolled in. It blanketed the area, muffled sounds and hid the final crossings from British lookouts just yards away.

When the fog lifted later that morning, the British were stunned to find the American positions completely abandoned. Washington himself was among the last to leave. No army lost, no major supplies abandoned, the Continental Army lived to fight another day.

Without that perfectly timed fog the Revolution might have ended right there in Brooklyn.

250 years ago today, on June 29, 1776, New Yorkers looked out at the water and saw a nightmare on the horizon. The British fleet had arrived, and so many ships filled the bay that witnesses said the masts looked like "a forest of pine trees" growing out of the sea. The timing could not have been more brutal.

This was the empire's answer to the rebellion, and it was overwhelming. The first wave of around 45 warships and transports dropped anchor off Sandy Hook and Staten Island carrying General William Howe and roughly 10,000 troops. Within days it kept growing. Then his brother Admiral Richard Howe arrived with more. It would eventually swell into one of the largest seaborne invasion forces of the entire 18th century, hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of professional soldiers and German mercenaries, aimed at one city.

Now sit with the timing. While that forest of masts was filling the harbor, delegates down in Philadelphia were in the final days of debating whether to declare independence. They voted for it on July 2 and signed off on the wording on July 4. So at the exact moment America was being born on paper, the most powerful military on earth was already anchored off its coast, getting ready to strangle it in the cradle.

The people of New York understood exactly what they were seeing. Alarm bells rang, panic spread through the streets, and soldiers sprinted to their posts to stare at a force they had almost no hope of matching. Washington's army was outnumbered, outgunned, and about to get badly beaten in the battles for New York that followed.

That's the part that gets lost in the fireworks every Fourth of July. Independence wasn't declared from a position of strength. It was declared with an enemy armada already sitting on the doorstep, knowing full well what was coming. They signed their names anyway.

In a nutshell:
An overly-abundant focus on the civil rights movement in schools raised a generation to believe that righteousness comes from "defending the marginalized."

Desperate for our own cause, we turned the LGBT cause into the new civil rights movement because defending these "marginalized" peoples didn't require us to sacrifice anything real. It was instant, easy righteousness.

And when people refuse to fall in line, that forces us to question whether we actually have acquired all the righteousness we thought we had by defending the marginalized. So, to keep the value of our righteousness currency, we punish dissenters.

Berkeley math professor:

“Today, the more successful a public high school is at preparing its students, the lower its graduates' chances of getting into top UC campuses like Berkeley and San Diego.”

Berkeley admitted 45% of applicants from a high school where nearly 94% of “students failed to meet the state standards in mathematics.”

It admitted less than 14% of applicants from a school where “nearly 100 percent of its students in AP Calculus BC pass the national exam with a perfect score of 5.”
