Prodigy!

12-year-old bird-calling prodigy Samuel Henderson just dropped the ultimate patriotic flex. 🦅 🇺🇸

He kicks it off with a heartfelt “Happy 250th Birthday, America” — then unleashes an insane medley of bird calls so spot-on they summon the real deal.

After Samuel nails a cardinal call perfectly, a local cardinal in the background sings right back at him. 😆

That’s talent! This kid doesn’t just imitate nature — he talks to it. 🐦 💥

@Katie_Classique They wasted one of the best secondary characters on that show by killing her off.

Who needs autopilot when you've got a manual transmission and 100% more country? 😂

DO YOU LIKE BENCH SEATS?

​Can your electric car hold hands and shift gears, Elon? 🤠🚗💨

@OfMikeAndMen I did. After about an hour and a half playing with it, I realized it was way too basic for what I wanted to learn about. My dad took it back and bought me a couple of Heath kits. Strobe light, radio, etc. That’s what got me my start.

Communism through (my) ages:
1) When I was 15, a teacher told me "It isn't as bad as they say, and makes a lot of sense."
2) At about 19, college friends, "Socialism isn't communism."
3) At 20, on meeting my grandfather-in-law, "They are evil. We escaped in 1949."
4) At 30, "China is a wonderful developing Democracy"
5) At 35, I was sent to communist China on business. It was a crowded, smelly, dirty, factory of despair and hopelessness. This I saw with my own eyes.
6) At 36, "China doesn't count. Successful socialism is in northern Europe."
7) I moved to northern Europe when I was 40. It was much nicer than China, but also felt like I was living in the past. I had to wait 6 months for a hernia operation.
8) When I was about 45, the migrant crisis began. The socialist/globalist/pacifist allowed them entry into every country, regardless how many crimes they committed along the way. Just 20 minutes from my house, in Calais, I was shocked to see migrants jumping onto trucks, breaking open the doors, scattering the contents across the highway, then climbing in. They went through the Chunnel and got out in England.
9) At 52, the soft socialism around me had transformed into globalism. I was told I had to call people by their preferred pronouns, though it was a lie, and even if I didn't know what the preferences were. I quit.
10) I returned to the US, and am now 60. "Socialism" is no longer a dirty word here. People openly espouse the virtues of it. Politicians run as socialists and win.

Socialism has taken many forms, from the Bolshevism of Russia, to the CCP in China, the Nazis in Germany, Fascists in Italy, and the many forms of it found in Latin America. It is one of the two most destructive ideologies on earth. It is designed to deprive, despirit, and murder everything that comes in contact with it.

Socialism is a great lie at every level. It helps no one, not even those who benefit the most. This is because the cost is the imposition of one's will on everyone else, and that destroys the soul of the usurper and the life of the oppressed.

Socialism always fails on its own, but only after destroying almost everything in its train. It can also be conquered. Those are the options.

@HistorianUSA1 My son was afraid to defend himself. He was afraid of having to go to detention. I said if you get sent to detention for defending yourself, I will sit in there with you for as long as you are. He smiled, gave me a hug, and defended himself the next day. No detention.

@BuzzPatterson Dad was a crew chief on one of those tankers. He used to talk about the skill those pilots had to have. He wanted to be a pilot, but his eyes were jacked up. He did get to taxi around the runway which always made his day.

@Survival__skill Wood Badge training weekend 1. Rained so long and hard, 18 inch spikes pulled themselves sideways through the ground from the guide lines. 62 years, and that’s the worst weather I have ever camped in.
