Quivering Karmelo Anthony is convicted of murdering Austin Metcalf, 17... but now prosecutors have granted him Hail Mary that could see him jailed for as little as TWO YEARS | Daily Mail Online https://t.co/kCqsuLNYsW
But after the verdict was passed at the Collin County courthouse on Tuesday, prosecutors agreed to consider 'sudden passion' as a factor when determining Anthony's sentence.
This is a legal term that allows a criminal to argue they were in an intense emotional state when they committed wrongdoing. If it is granted, it would reduce Anthony's murder to a second-degree felony
@LeaderJohnThune before @POTUS was elected you just represented your own state. Now that you are the Leader of the Senate you represent all 50 states. Since 70% of the people that live in the USA want the SAVE Act passed, so why aren't you doing the will of the people?
He was born in Mexico City. He crossed the border without papers. And the day his green card arrived in the mail — he walked straight to a Marine Corps recruiting office and enlisted.
That was Rafael Peralta. That was who he was from the very beginning.
On November 15, 2004, 25-year-old Sergeant Rafael Peralta was leading his unit through house-to-house combat during the Second Battle of Fallujah — one of the bloodiest urban battles of the entire Iraq War. When he opened a door, insurgents opened fire. He was shot multiple times in the head and fell to the ground.
Then a grenade landed inches from his face.
Seven Marines who were present all say the same thing: despite his critical wounds, Peralta reached out, pulled the grenade beneath his body, and absorbed the full force of the blast.
He died. They lived.
The Marine Corps and the U.S. Navy both recommended him for the Medal of Honor — the nation's highest military decoration. Three different Secretaries of Defense denied it, claiming there was not sufficient proof that he had acted with conscious intent. Yet his own Navy Cross citation states clearly that he pulled the grenade to himself "without hesitation and with complete disregard for his own personal safety."
His mother, Rosa Peralta, refused to accept the Navy Cross for seven years. She believed her son deserved more. She still does.
In 2017, the U.S. Navy commissioned the USS Rafael Peralta — an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer — carrying his name across every ocean on earth.
And now, in May 2026 — more than 21 years after his death — lawmakers in Congress have introduced legislation (H.R. 8973) and the FY2027 National Defense Authorization Act includes a provision authorizing the President to award Sgt. Rafael Peralta the Medal of Honor posthumously. The Pentagon has also made a favorable determination supporting the award. The fight, at last, may finally be reaching its end.
A man who was not yet a citizen fought and died for this country. He became a citizen while in uniform. And for over two decades, Washington debated whether his final act was heroic enough.
We don't debate it. We know what he did.
Did you know? Rafael Peralta had voluntarily requested to join his unit on that mission — it was not even his assigned assignment that day. He chose to be there.
Say his name. Share his story. Make sure the world remembers Sergeant Rafael Peralta.
When I was the Air Force Military Aide to Bill Clinton (and again, that was not a political appointee position, it was a military assignment), I served daily with very young staffers who were appointed because of their efforts in the campaign or who their parents were.
I really enjoyed interacting with most of them. Bright kids from Ivy League school. But their naïveté and lack of experience showed. Dramatically.
One day I was walking across the White House “campus,” the “18 acres,” and I encountered one of the young female staffers. We chatted for a bit, and she asked me, “So, why did you join the military? Were your career options limited or were you forced to by a judge?”
I wanted to throat punch her, but I said, “No, ma’am, I volunteered.”
She asked, “But why? Lack of education? No other options?”
“No, ma’am, I volunteered. Really. Not only do I have a Bachelor’s but also an MBA.”
She asked again, “Then why?”
I shook my head and walked away. They simply can’t understand a higher calling. They are incapable of understanding that another human who would selflessly serve.
Therein lies much of the Democrat vs. military disconnect. They’re missing the patriotism chip.
🔻 EVERY HOSPITAL IN THE UNITED STATES RECEIVED A SEALED ENVELOPE FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE. Monday morning. At 9:00 a.m. Every hospital administrator in the United States—all 6,129—received a hand-delivered envelope marked "DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE — MEDICAL DIRECTIVE 2026-04 — FOR DEPARTMENT USE ONLY." It wasn't emailed. It wasn't faxed. It was hand-delivered. By uniformed military personnel who waited in the lobby until the administrator personally signed for it. No hospital publicly disclosed the contents of the envelope. But four administrators broke the silence on an encrypted forum a few hours later. Their posts all had the same tone: "Everything is about to change." ⟁ The directive is 11 pages long. The first page contains a single instruction: "Effective immediately, all contracts for the procurement of pharmaceutical products with the following entities are suspended pending federal review." The list contains 31 companies. All the major pharmaceutical manufacturers on the planet. Pfizer. Moderna. Johnson & Johnson. Merck. AstraZeneca. Novartis. Roche. All of them. Suspended. Not renegotiated. Not modified. Suspended. Page two introduces the replacement: a new federal medical supply chain operating under military logistics command. The supplies don't come from pharmaceutical labs. They come from facilities operating under Department of Defense classification since 2021. Facilities that produce frequency-based healing devices. Bioregenerative compounds. Cell restoration technology. Equipment that hospital staff have never seen, never been trained on, and never knew existed. Pages three through eight are training protocols. All doctors. All nurses. All technicians. Mandatory 72-hour certification in what the directive calls "Quantum Medical Systems." Not optional. Not voluntary. Mandatory. Page nine is what silenced the administrators. He claims that all patient charges through private insurance companies will be "reduced to zero" in 90 days. No more co-payments. No more deductibles. No more $47 aspirins. No more $300,000 cancer treatments that don't cure cancer. The funding model is shifting entirely to the QFS Medical Allocation System: a pre-funded, asset-backed account assigned to every citizen at birth. An account you were never told about. An account that has been accumulating value since the day your birth certificate was registered. Your birth certificate wasn't just a record. It was a security. Traded on the stock exchange. Valued in the millions. The profits went to the corporation that owned the system. That corporation no longer owns the system. The 90-day countdown has begun. In July, the hospital you walk into won't be the one you remember. The pills will be gone. The equipment will be different. The bill will be zero.
They kept you sick because healthy people don't generate revenue. This business model just received its termination notice. Delivered personally. CODE: DOD-MED-2026/6129-HOSPITALS/PHARMACEUTICAL-SUSPENDED/QFS-HEALTH The disease treatment system is dead. The healthcare system has just arrived. ♟ Everyone you know needs to see this. Share it now. Sent to me by our dear friend James Stevens 🙏

Steven Spielberg says his new film “Disclosure Day” will leave Christians questioning their faith in God.
No it won’t.
Because once you’ve been touched by His hand as I have knowingly been many times, nothing can shake that faith.
Here’s what happened:
Back in 2015, I had a mini-stroke in my sleep.
I didn’t know it until I woke up, but I distinctly remembered God talking to me and saying “turn your life around and I will give you all the things you want.”
When I woke up, I had lost the use of my right hand - but I was still alive.
3 days later, I had my hand back and I never touched another man again.
Next, somebody gave me a job ghost-writing political content for republican candidates.
I wrote their Twitter accounts and their solicitation emails.
My bank account grew and I started to travel and see the world.
I made all kinds of new friends and my client base increased.
One of them told me I was so good, I should start my own Twitter account.
I did…and here I am.
So no, Stevie, nothing you say, do, or make will shake my faith in God.
He’s kept every promise he ever made to me, and I’ll never stop trusting Him.
Thanx be to God for allowing me to see this day and this life.

This has got to be one of the most wonderful things I've seen in a long time.
This is the kind of creativity that makes you stop scrolling.
No special effects. No fancy equipment.
Just a hose, a driveway, and an imagination that refuses to stay ordinary. ☺️❤️
Sometimes the simplest ideas end up being the most magical.
That is the dumbest question ever - we would be much better off here if every single Somali went back home to their own country. They are cheaters, liars, and theives.
Since when does @stephenasmith get to decide that the President is not allowed to attend a Knicks game? Who of any importance is he? All he is is a sports caster. What a loser.
Dear @stephenasmith shut the fuck up.
Donald Trump is the President . You threw a hissy fit yesterday because he was going to the basketball game.
You are a professional bitch you cry on TV for a living. You couldn't do 1 ounce of what Donald Trump has done in his life and in his presidency.
Donald Trump built New York City skyline you have done nothing.
Donald Trump ran for president three times and won you have done nothing.
Donald Trump has survived three assassination attempts. You have done nothing.
Donald Trump is saving this country from economic collapse. You have done nothing.
Donald Trump secured our border from an invasion of illegal aliens. You have done nothing.
Donald Trump is a great American and a great president you have done nothing.
You sit and bitch for a living on TV on ESPN that nobody watches. Nobody cares about meanwhile Donald Trump is making an impact in the real world.
Shut the fuck up.
He deserves life in prison for what he did.
The jury should also send a message to these other kids to stop treating life like it is worthless or we will make your life worthless as you rot away in a jail cell.
Here’s the biggest takeaway from the Karmelo Anthony murder trial: Karmelo’s parents should be going to prison, too.
At 17 years old, Karmelo committed premeditated murder in cold blood. He then ran and hid the murder weapon and lied about attacking and slaughtering and innocent kid. What kind of family raises a monster like this?
The kind of family that won’t let their son plead guilty so they can fundraise off his murder trial because of tribal, low IQ hatred of white people. Karmelo is using a public defender. Where did the $700K go? New sneakers, a new house, a cruise?
The parents are profiteering of their son’s murder of a white kid. Absolute broken, irredeemable culture.
If Karmelo Anthony’s parents hadn’t failed him, he wouldn’t have committed such a barbaric crime.
If he was raised to not act like an animal, Austin Metcalf would still be alive, and Karmelo wouldn’t be facing a prison sentence.
Unfortunately isn’t a new or rare trend. We see it time and time again.
We need to talk openly and honestly about how we got here. Disproportionate crime rates, broken families, fatherlessness, subcultures that worship violence.
Enough is enough.
>Be a White boy
>Austin Metcalf
>”Fuck Nіggеrs, we are White, we can sit wherever we want”
>Sit under tent of the high school you don’t attend
> Get asked to leave 15 times
>Pulls out a knife
>Stab Black kid Karmelo Anthony in the heart in front of his brother
>Brother‘s name is D’Angelo or something
>Gets arrested
>Claims self-defense
>”Well Shooot, We Didn't Do Anything”
>White people defend him and donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to bail you out
>White people claim he was being bullied as a justification
>Go home, play Madden 27
If the role were reversed Black people will be singing a different fucking tune
Black people will defend murderers, no matter how wrong they are only because they’re Black
Fuck Karmelo
