Everybody at that gas station warned me about the dog behind the dumpster.
They said he was really mean and not to get close.
It took me three full days of leaving food before he finally let me sit beside him.
Under all that matted fur, I could barely find his eyes.
The vet shaved off almost 5 pounds (over 2kg) of knots and tangled fur that he had been dragging around for years.
A few months later, I had a completely different dog.
Now he sleeps on my bed, and some nights I look over and he’s already watching me from across the room, like he still can’t believe I came back.
If you have an old rescue dog sleeping near you right now, give him an extra scratch tonight. 🐕❤️
When Venezuelans needed our help, American heroes answered the call.

💥 "AMERICA WILL NEVER BE RULED BY THEM AGAIN." THE U.S. HAS NOW LEFT THE WHO.
History has just been made.
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced that the United States has formally completed its withdrawal from the World Health Organization.
His message was unmistakable:
"We made this decision to reclaim our independence, to protect American sovereignty, and to free our public health policy from a system that no longer serves the American people."
Kennedy accused the WHO of losing its way, citing bureaucracy, conflicts of interest and what he described as failures during the COVID-19 pandemic.
He confirmed:
🇺🇸 U.S. funding to the WHO has ended.
🇺🇸 U.S. government personnel have left the organisation.
🇺🇸 American health policy will be directed by U.S. institutions rather than the WHO.
He closed with a message aimed at those affected by the pandemic and its response:
"America will continue to lead... with science, with integrity, with transparency and with accountability."
Whether you support or oppose this decision, there is no denying its significance.
This marks one of the biggest shifts in U.S. global health policy in decades.
Watch the full statement and decide for yourself.
@Phillies@IBX I am simply amazed by the resilient spirit of the Phillies and its Phans, me included. Of being able to pick up, year after year of devastating near misses. And still able to say with great hope, Maybe This Year will be Our Year! !
