This Memorial Day, I honor my uncle, Robert Murphy, a brave soldier in the 22nd Infantry, 4th Division, he gave his life in Luxembourg on January 6, 1945, during the Battle of the Bulge
Thank you for your service and bravery. #MemorialDay#FamilyHero
Never forget when Kyle Busch spotted this fan wearing his hat while driving next to her in traffic 🥹
This is one of the most wholesome interactions you'll ever see.
Remembering Maynard Troyer today

Legendary modified racer and car builder Maynard Troyer, of Spencerport, NY, made 14 Winston Cup starts in 1971 and 1973.
@SecRollins There is a huge need for more abittoirs if you plan on having more smaller local operations. Currently, you need appointments months in advance.
Had an awesome day touring the USS Wisconsin. My dad served on the ship during the Korean War. I was able to visit the area where he worked and the giant mural as you entered the museum, he was in the picture.
Wildfire season is weeks away.
The West is in record drought.
And the Trump administration just announced it is shutting down 57 of the 77 Forest Service research stations that tell us how bad it is going to get and what to do about it.
We already know how this ends.
When Trump moved the Bureau of Land Management out of Washington in his first term, 87 percent of the staff quit rather than relocate. The same thing is happening here. Scientists are not going to uproot their families and abandon university partnerships. They are going to leave.
And when they leave, decades of data, research, and institutional knowledge walk out the door with them.
The Forest Service oversees 193 million acres. It lost nearly 6,000 employees to DOGE cuts in just the first half of last year. Now it is gutting the research operation that tells land managers what is actually happening to those forests in real time.
California alone is losing six research facilities, right before fire season.
There is no version of this that makes the forests safer, the science stronger, or the taxpayer better off.

BREAKING: Republican Senator Kennedy just blamed Trump the government shutdown!
"The Democrats have offered to open up everything but ICE. Ted Cruz and I said, ‘OK let’s accept their offer…’ Senator Thune submitted that to President Trump. As is his right, [Trump] said ‘No! No deals with the Democrats.’ It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week but the President said ‘no deal.’”
This is the DONALD TRUMP SHUTDOWN!
Even Republicans are acknowledging it.
After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.

I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this helps raise awareness. 1/
NEW: The U.S. national debt has increased by over $4 trillion since Trump began his second term.
Let that sink in.
This is the same administration that fired hundreds of thousands of federal employees — including tens of thousands of veterans — claiming it was about “cutting costs” and “government efficiency.”
They gutted agencies.
They dismantled programs.
They pushed experienced public servants out the door.
Many of those workers were veterans who continued serving their country in civilian roles.
And for what?
The debt still exploded by $2.3 trillion.
So veterans lost their jobs.
Public services were weakened.
Communities were destabilized.
And the deficit still skyrocketed.
This was never about fiscal responsibility.
It was about ideology, chaos, and rewarding billionaires while blaming the people who actually keep the government running.
The damage is real.
The consequences will last for years.
And the question that will eventually have to be answered is simple:
Who will be held accountable for it? 🇺🇸
