My thoughts on the Apache that was shot down by Iran:
I cannot begin to explain how lucky that Apache crew was that was shot down. Yes, UXOs happen, but that is just part of the luck (especially since it was on fire!).
Apaches have a tandem cockpit, which means the pilots sit one in front of the other, like a fighter jet, rather than side by side like most helicopters.
The fact that the drone hit between the two pilots without actually hitting one of the pilots is just wild…there isn’t that much room for that not to happen.
Then, having to ditch in the Strait of Hormuz after a drone crashes into you and your helicopter is on fire with flames likely filling your line of sight. Sounds like they likely did power-on ditching procedures, but once they jettison the canopy and hit the water things happen fast. Helicopters roll when they hit the water and start to fill up with water. It’s very disorienting and the water is dark. You also still have to worry about the rotor blades.
When train for this. We refer to it as “dunker training.” But in the span of most standard Army pilots careers, they usually only complete the initial training, not the annual follow on training that is preferred.
The pilots were able to get out and find each other and wait in the water for two hours while a drone boat came and rescued them…. Technology that those pilots likely didn’t even know existed until it picked them up.
A lot of things that could have and likely should have gone wrong, didn’t. Things very easily could have ended much differently.
Very grateful those pilots are ok. 🇺🇸🙏
I find it amusing that some people think Trump is just blissfully unaware about the upcoming midterms.
Meanwhile, in reality, Red states have been gaining seats by legally redrawing congressional maps.
Trump is about to sign the Secure America Act, which fully funds ICE/DHS throughout his term, which he has hinted will be involved in election security, a necessary precursor to the Save America Act and/or EO to secure elections.
Trump also planned for our operations in the Middle East to be concluded before the midterms, gas prices will be down, stock market will be up, and Trump will have all the positive optics.
Then there’s also Russia/Ukraine, which if he were to settle a deal between now and the midterms, would be a massive feather in his cap, and huge boost for GOP candidates.
Then there’s all the fraud investigations, criminal referrals for Walz/Ellison in Minnesota, treasonous conspiracy cases, etc., which could be used to damage the Dems’ optics leading up to the midterms. Any matter of exposure, declassification, or “October surprises” could be deployed.
My point is, Trump is setting himself up to be in prime position heading into November, and it’s not an accident. He is extremely aware about the midterms, and pieces are slowly moving into place. Combine all the positive optics with better congressional maps, election security, peace deals, etc., and the Dems are facing a historic bloodbath in November.
Timing is everything. Trump knows exactly what he is doing. Trust.
After two failed attempts to attach the Save America Act to the Senate immigration bill — Republican Senator Susan Collins has now signaled she is willing to bring the original Save America Act to the floor.
If Collins flips, Thun must remove the filibuster. The D's will remove it the moment they get back in power anyway. The time for baby steps is over.
The election integrity law must be passed.
In a world gone mad, where evil is called “good,” darkness is praised as “light,” and bitter is sold as sweet — God’s Word and warnings ring louder than ever:
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!”
Isaiah 5:20-21 (KJV).
Our leaders are fighting wars on multiple fronts at once. Israel is under siege. America is stretched thin. Ukraine is mired in what seems to be a never-ending war.
China, Russia, and Europe are opportunistic players in this global crisis.
Favor from the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is our only hope.
We don’t need another congressional hearing or another speech about red lines.
We need God’s wisdom!
Let’s stop scrolling. Bow our heads and pray as the Lord leads.
Lord Jesus, grant our leaders supernatural wisdom and discernment.
Expose every lie and deception.
Protect the innocent.
Give our leaders humility and the courage to always choose light over darkness and good over evil in both domestic and foreign affairs.
I lift this petition in the name of Jesus.
Amen.

BREAKING: Republicans’ sweeping immigration enforcement and border security package cleared the House, ending a months-long standoff with Democrats over funding Trump's immigration crackdown agenda.
The $70 billion measure passed 214-212 along party lines and now heads to the president's desk for signature.
BOOM💥 — In a jaw-dropping statement, President Trump called for the United States to federalize elections to shut down voter fraud.
Trump declared, “If a state can't run the election honestly, I think the people behind me should do something about it!”
Let’s Make a Deal:
If you want your FISA Section 702 — @LeaderJohnThune — so badly,
then provide for an amendment to require the gov’t to seek a warrant for US citizens
& attach the SAVE America Act.
You get what you want — we get what we want.
Deal?
Investigative journalist Lara Logan Drops BOMBSHELL, Says U.S. Went After Maduro Because They Rightly Knew Venezuela RIGGED The 2020 Election with Iran and the CCP, Claims an EYEWITNESS Is In Custody...
“Venezuela stole the election from Trump, working with Iran, the CCP, and others. We know a lot of the details because there’s a very senior Venezuelan sitting in prison who was actually an eyewitness to the theft.”
“You want to know why President Trump doesn’t get the support he needs from a country like Spain? The cartel in Venezuela that runs the country, Cartel de los Soles, selected the Spanish Prime Minister. Why does America get all this heat from all over the world? The globalist-Marxist-Islamist alliance that uses these cartels as its army all work together.”
“The election in LA isn’t about one enemy, it’s about all of America’s enemies working together.”
