While the world watches the war, the Islamic Republic of Iran hanged a 19-year-old boy today.
His name is Erfan Esfandiari and he was his parents' only child.
He did not kill anyone. He did not carry a weapon. His crime, according to the Islamic Republic, was opening a door. Sheltering protesters who were running from security forces. That was enough to send him to the gallows.
Erfan was one of 12 young men in the Alikhani Square case in Isfahan, arrested during the January 2026 uprising. Yesterday, all 12 were moved to quarantine. Today, the Islamic Republic hanged him.
This is a government that is so terrified of a generation that refuses to be silent, that it executes teenagers for the act of compassion.
Say his name. Because the regime is already trying to erase him. Because his mother and father are left with nothing, not even the right to grieve loudly.
Good morning, Louisiana. Today is Election Day.
Polls are open from 7:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m.
If you haven’t voted yet, please take a few minutes to make your voice heard. Every vote matters.
Thank you to everyone who has supported this campaign, volunteered, prayed for us, encouraged us, and already cast your vote. I truly appreciate it.
Today, the decision belongs to the people of Louisiana.
I’d be honored to earn your vote today.
Thank you, God bless you, and God bless Louisiana.
I genuinely believe that if we all switched to a 4-day workweek with 5–6 hour days, it would fundamentally transform society.
People would be happier, healthier, less angry, and far more present in their daily lives.

UNTIL members of the House and the Senate fund DHS (TSA), they should not be escorted to the front of the TSA lines. They should report to the airport like their constituents and stand in line for 2 plus hours.
RFK Jr. just went off for 2 minutes straight tearing into the politicization of COVID.
The entire room went silent.
Watch:
“The whole process was politicized. Senator, I mean, we were lied to about everything.”
“We were lied to about natural immunity. We were lied to about, you know, we were told again and again, the vaccines would prevent transmission. They'd prevent infection. It wasn't true. They knew it from the start. It wasn't true because that's what the animal studies in the clinical trials showed. We were told that there was science behind cloth masks.”
“The CDC allowed the teachers union to write the order closing our schools, which hurt working people all over the country, and then pretend it was science-based.”
“President Biden said in August, I would never take that vaccine, the Trump vaccine. And he came in, he mandated it, and then he fired the two top health officials at FDA who said, hey, this thing has not been properly tested. So the whole process was politicized even today.”
