Thanks to God that he gave me stubbornness when I know I am right. - John Adams, Second President of the United States and one of my heroes
NO DMs. Block MAGAs.
Once again: If you are a man and follow me, and in vetting I find that you only follow women, I will remove you as a follower and block you. Just save us both some time.
A firefighter vanished during the 9/11 attacks and was never found. Eight years later, his family discovered a photograph capturing him running toward the World Trade Center as crowds rushed away from danger. The image showed Gary Box in his final known moments, heading into the chaos on September 11, 2001.
The story of firefighter Gary Box is a heartbreaking but true account of courage during the September 11 attacks. A 35-year-old member of FDNY’s Squad 1, Box was among the first responders who raced toward the World Trade Center that morning. For years, his family had no clear understanding of his final moments and believed his unit’s vehicle may have been trapped in the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel when the towers collapsed.
That uncertainty ended in 2009 when a Danish photographer who had been in New York on 9/11 came forward with previously unseen photographs. One image showed Box running through the traffic-clogged tunnel in full firefighting gear, carrying his helmet as he headed toward the burning Twin Towers while civilians and vehicles moved in the opposite direction. For his family, the photograph provided a measure of closure, revealing that he had made it through the tunnel and spent his final moments doing what he had always done—running toward danger in an effort to help others.
Ana Navarro: “I never thought I’d see US citizens killed for exercising their right to protest or 5-year-old children used as human bait. Thousands of children are being held in detention centers in deplorable conditions, they are dying from lack of medical care”
Meiselas: So what’s your message to Trump, who says that he will be attending Game 3 of the Finals at Madison Square Garden?
Jeffries: Stay away. Why does this guy always have to make everything about himself and ruin a good thing? After 27 years of being out of the NBA Finals, we’re now up 2-0. The city is in a frenzy. Everybody’s coming together, and somehow this guy has to parachute in with his divisive self.
I was a U.S. Naval Intelligence Officer, I served proudly in Afghanistan, and I’ve dealt with the Intelligence Community. I can say with confidence that Bill Pulte’s lack of experience is dangerous for our national security. Congress must push back and prevent an inexperienced loyalist from becoming the next Director of National Intelligence.
I'm a grizzly.
They just decided one acre is all I need.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service just redefined "secure habitat" for grizzly bears in Montana.
The science said 2,500 acres minimum.
They changed it to one.
No public input. No new science. Just a rewrite.
And it wasn't random. The change conveniently cleared the way for a 17,700-acre logging project cutting straight through the corridor grizzlies use to travel between two of their last strongholds in North America.
A former Forest Service wildlife biologist said it plainly: "A one-acre island of forest surrounded by roads isn't secure habitat. It's a death trap."
Courts already rejected this same playbook when agencies tried 10-acre patches near Yellowstone. They lost. Then they came back with one acre.
Who's going to tell the grizzly it only gets one acre?
