You did it, Indian diaspora, and on Diwali!

My attorney just notified me that I won my case against the Army.

The funds may take as long as February to arrive, so I may still need some assistance until then, but this nightmare is over.

I'm still in too much shock to write more, except to say THANK YOU!

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

Don't worry. He is not gone.

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

Don't worry! @VivekGRamaswamy is not gone from X.

His campaign team had been running his X account. Now that the campaign team has dissolved, the account is currently not actively managed. It is in a holding pattern during this transition period.

@SaraGonzalesTX You are such a patriot!

Still no message from @SaraGonzalesTX for Veterans Day, but she did post about crying over her dead cat. 🙄

[Sara Gonzales @SaraGonzalesTX]

Our cat Hurley crossed the rainbow bridge a few months ago. He was my best friend for nearly 18 years, and he helped raise both my boys.

I was not prepared to ugly cry this morning when I saw my 6 year old’s artwork. But here we are.

You are still so loved, Hurley. ❤️

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

@earned_given May have? 😉

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

Tell me you are a self-hating brown sepoy who doesn't understand Hinduism without telling me.

[Priya Patel @priyaee]

Demonic and has nothing to do with America, a Christian nation.

That all can stay in India.

@MattKRobin @oath1789 @SecWar @grok Please don't ascribe to me things I haven't stated.

This case has been going on since 2014, before Hegseth was even a Fox News host. 🙄

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

One of three things must happen immediately.

@SecWar must resign.

@SecWar must be fired.

@SecWar must be impeached and removed from office.

I prefer the first, but will settle for the others.

@SecWar is unfit to lead the US Armed Forces.

[Dennis Porter @Dennis_Porter_]

Watch the sweat on Pete Hegseth’s brow as Jon Ossoff takes him apart without ever raising his voice.

Now imagine Ossoff on a presidential debate stage.

Then imagine him in the Oval Office, looking Putin or Xi in the eye and pressing them with that same composure.

@voyager7788 Thank you!

On this Veterans Day, I honor my father, Carl Wheless, a US Army WWII combat veteran of the European Theater of Operations.

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

On this anniversary of D-Day, allow me to share my personal connection to this solemn day.

My father landed in Normandy on D-Day +7, a week after that horrible day.

He was in the hedgerows.

He fought his way across Europe.

He got laid in Paris.

He survived the Battle of the Bulge.

He was a simple man, serving as a Combat Engineer and Medic.

He never attained much rank or led anyone.

Growing up, he told me about his experiences, good and bad, to the best of his abilities. We spent years together watching WWII movies and war footage from a very young age.

I learned even more during the dark times, when he was physically with us but was reliving what he'd been through.

I heard him scream to his buddy not to open that door, as he was blown to bits. I heard him lament how he tried to return fire on a ME-109 that fired rockets into their position while on a strafing run, furious that he could not get the safety of his M1 off fast enough before it flew behind a water tower.

Only recently have I come to understand the true horror he endured.

New information and evidence indicate he was most likely moderately autistic at a time when no one even knew what autism was.

After the war, in the 1960s, he endured electroshock 'therapy' at the state mental hospital.

The VA put him on lithium and other strong medications that virtually made him a zombie.

Yet, it took the VA decades to declare his conditions as 'service-connected,' but rated him at 0%, meaning he received health care but never a penny of compensation.

It destroyed his marriage and shattered his family.

My sister and I grew up in institutionalized foster care, as a result, for me from 1974 to 1982, where we were mentally, emotionally, and physically abused and neglected.

Despite all this, I followed in his footsteps and joined the military, serving this nation and spending time in combat.

This is one man, one example of the sacrifices of the Greatest Generation, and he didn't arrive in Normandy until a week later.

Imagine their hell.

You may know him as Private First Class Wheless.

I knew him only as "dad."

@Serenity42062 @grok - Am I a liberal?

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

She has no sense of humor. 🙄

[Priya Patel @priyaee]

Had a lovely evening at the Oasis in Austin, TX — until I saw this.

Let’s ignore gay boy Talarico for a second…

Luigi Mangione… Really?

A cold blooded murder depicted on prayer candles…

Utterly disgusting and completely sacrilegious.

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

@Realalexstone No.

You leave.

This place does not belong to you exclusively.

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

@0liviajulianna Happy birthday to your dad, and bless you for honoring him. 👍

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

@mookjuice To you as well, brother! 🇺🇸

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

@WatchChad Stop being a bigot.

Do better.

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

For all you clowns sharing videos to smear Hindus and claiming you are being replaced, I have news for you.

You aren't in danger of being replaced by Hindu.

[Carl Wheless @carlwheless]

@ArjunNatar48224 I appreciate it. Thank you.
