The Jonesboro, Arkansas PD released a video of a man trying to cross a very busy intersection in a wheel chair.
Then….out of nowhere, your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man swings into action.😂
He grabs the wheelchair & off to the races they go!
I have so many questions!😆
@walkindead14 AI or not this fee is full of people and don’t have a clue. Donkeys are used as protection animals for cattle, llamas, alpacas, birds anything. A donkey will kill a coyote or a fox or a dog. Donkeys are mean mofos.
🚨😢The Ship That Caught a Baby From the Sky🔥🔥🔥
In 1975, a Vietnamese pilot hovered a giant Chinook over a tiny American warship and dropped his 10-month-old daughter into the arms of a US sailor.
What happened next is the most American thing I've ever read.
April 29, 1975. Saigon is falling.
The USS Kirk, a small escort ship with 260 sailors, watches the horizon fill with South Vietnamese helicopters. Families crammed inside. Fuel running out. Nowhere to land.
The Kirk's deck fits ONE small helicopter.
So the crew makes a call: land them one by one, get the people off, and shove the empty helicopters into the ocean. Millions of dollars of aircraft, pushed overboard like trash.
Because people matter more than machines.
Then a massive CH-47 Chinook appears. Too big to land. The crew waves it off — it would kill everyone on deck.
The pilot, Ba Nguyen, refuses to leave. His wife and three children are on board.
So he hovers over the stern. One by one, his family jumps into the arms of American sailors. His baby daughter is literally dropped from the sky — and caught.
Then he flies off alone, strips off his flight suit while holding the chopper steady, banks it away from the ship, and jumps into the sea as the Chinook crashes beside him.
The Kirk's rescue boat was in the water before he even surfaced.
Then came one more order: "Go back. We forgot the Vietnamese Navy."
So one small American ship turned around, gathered 32 ships carrying 30,000 refugees, and escorted them 1,000 miles to safety.
For 35 years, nobody told this story. America wanted to forget Vietnam.
Then in 2010, the Kirk's crew tracked down Ba Nguyen — and pinned a US Air Medal on his chest.
And in a refugee camp in Guam, a baby girl born after the rescue was given an American name:
Kirk.
🚨Rubio’s speech on what America is has gone viral, it’s the BEST political speech since Reagan. Period.
“America is not a government”
“America is your family, America’s your faith, your community, that’s America”
Freaking unbelievable 🇺🇸
Alguien se acuerda de este video que hizo el Manchester City en 2022, cuando el mundial fue en medio de la temporada y Haaland vio a todos sus compañeros yendo a Qatar y él quedándose en Manchester porque Noruega no se clasificó?
Now that the US is knocked out, I am formally extending an invitation to the American people to support Norway.
Why?
1: The Vikings discovered America before Columbus.
2: There are more ethnic Norwegians in the US than in Norway.
3: Next weekend we can pillage the English peasants together.
4:
CONFESSION: A grown Japanese man SOBBED at YOUR fireworks last night.
That man was me. Zero shame.
Because every July 4th, my heart flies back to March 11.
Your sailors—YOUR sons and daughters—
standing on deck INSIDE the radiation zone,
wrapping blankets around shivering strangers.
We were those strangers.
NOW WE ARE FAMILY.
Cry with me, America. It's your 250th birthday. 🎆😭🇺🇸
@Richard79139714@TheExtremeMusi1 All smarty pants answers aside, I believe it might be a thank you nod to the French for their support (physical and $$$) during OUR revolution. Basically they understood the asignment.
@TheExtremeMusi1 It has cannons. It’s a total bad ass from first note to last. And it annoys the French that we co-opted it for our birthday. What better combination is there?
America turns 250 today.
Let me read back the resume.
We started by telling a king to pound sand, in writing.
By 1803 we bought half a continent from France for about four cents an acre.
We fought a war with ourselves and somehow stayed one country.
We strung a railroad across the entire thing.
We handed the world the lightbulb, the telephone, and the airplane in about thirty years flat.
Then a man named Willis Carrier invented air conditioning and made half the planet actually livable.
You are welcome, Texas. You are welcome, Dubai.
Twice the whole world caught fire, and twice we showed up and helped put it out.
We split the atom.
We put men on the moon in 1969.
Then we went back and hit golf balls up there, because why not.
We invented jazz, blues, rock and roll, and hip-hop, and the whole planet is still dancing to it.
We put a burger and fries on every corner of the earth.
We built rockets that fly themselves home and land standing straight up.
We flew a helicopter on Mars.
We launched a car into actual space and it is still out there cruising.
We also invented ranch dressing and somehow talked the entire world into putting it on pizza.
Priorities.
We even invented three of our own sports so we could win them.
Baseball, basketball, and football.
Real football, the kind with hands, because we named it and we are not taking corrections.
The rest of the planet can keep soccer, which is fine, we are hosting it in our backyard this summer anyway.
And yes, Canadian football exists, wider field, extra man, one fewer down, and we try very hard not to think about it.
Frankly it was generous of us to invent our own games.
If we put all that energy into soccer, nobody else would ever lift that trophy again.
We would win it so often they would just rename it the America’s Cup and hand us the keys.
You are welcome for the suspense.
And in 2026 we threw a birthday so big a German tourist live-tweeted our gas stations to 750,000 people.
Not every chapter was clean.
We argued, we stumbled, we fixed what we broke, and we kept building.
That is the whole trick.
Two hundred and fifty years in, and we are still the loudest, brightest, most improbable experiment on the map.
Not bad for a country that started as a strongly worded letter to a king.
Happy birthday, America.

@LeDindonFiscal As a civilized and polite American, I formally apologize. Apparently this dumbass couldn’t do his homework to realize that AC is not a thing in Europe. There is no excuse for what he said, and we do NOT claim that asshole
@TheCinesthetic The Zulu’s were taunting them with a description of what they were going to do to them. The bravery that it took to stand in defiance and give it right back to them it’s just part of what makes this story absolutely astounding. In many ways, this is very much like the Alamo.
@IamQA1@Thefactsdude Which court? He’s just enumerated how the court system is left out of the equation by Carlos and the international entity. Easy for you to say, but maybe you should go and listen to him again.
