Out of 16.4 million Americans who served in WWII, only about 40,000 are still alive.

They’re dying at a rate of ~100 per day.

These are the heroes who saved the world from tyranny.

Find one. Thank one. Listen to their stories.

While you still can.

An update on Pnut the Squirrel

Lawsuits were filed against The State of New York, DEC, and Department of Health concerning the euthanization of Pnut & Fred the raccoon in 2025

As of late May 2026. The cases are moving through the normal New York court process.

There must be justice for Pnut & Fred, Kathy Hochul's overreaching dept of health and DEC must be put in their place.

This video demonstrates that Pnut was fully domesticated

US Army Spc. Lori Piestewa, a member of the Hopi Tribe, was the first American woman to be killed in the Iraq War. On March 23, 2003, at age 23, she died after an ambush on her convoy in Nasiriyah. She was posthumously awarded the Purple Heart. Rest in peace, Lori. 🇺🇸❤️🙏🪖💜

Remembering Sergeant First Class Alwyn C. Cashe 🇺🇸

SFC Alwyn Cashe grew up in Oviedo, FL. He enlisted in the United States Army right out of high school in 1988, spending the next 17 years becoming the type of leader the Army builds its foundation on.

A Gulf War veteran, drill sergeant, and eventual platoon sergeant.

On his third combat tour in Iraq, he was serving with the 1st Battalion, 15th Infantry Regiment near Samarra. The night of October 17, 2005, his Bradley Fighting Vehicle was struck by an IED, setting the vehicle on fire. Despite sustaining severe burns he went back in three times.

He pulled six U.S. service members and an Iraqi interpreter from the vehicle, refusing evacuation until every single one of his men had been medevaced.

He suffered burns to over 72% of his body and tragically passed away on November 8, 2005, in San Antonio, TX. He was 35.

It took 16 years for his Silver Star to be upgraded to the Medal of Honor he always deserved. 🇺🇸

On this day 13 years ago, my only son was sworn in to the US Army. In ten days, it will be 12 years since he was killed in Afghanistan 2 weeks before he was due to come home. He was just 21. This week is also Memorial Day. My greatest fear now is that he will be forgotten. Please help me remember my boy during this tough week of special dates (share if you feel inspired. It never gets easier but the love and support always helps. ♥️🇺🇸

Jake was a Christian, an athlete, a patriot, an artist, dog lover, a friend to all and the funniest, happiest guy in the platoon. Jake, you’ve left a huge void in our lives, but we will see you one day and there will no more heartache and no more goodbyes ♥️🇺🇸

One minute to save a kudu’s life.

During a targeted patrol, our SWT/KWS Anti-Poaching Team found four medium-game snares, and then a fifth, tethered to a tree, with its quarry still alive. The wire had wrapped around the kudu’s horns and face, tightening with each attempt to pull free.

Every minute mattered. The team alerted Kaluku Headquarters and a plan was hatched. One that would involve lassoing the kudu and then quickly cutting away the wire.

For this kudu, our team’s patrol made the difference between life and death, and because of the snares collected that day, other lives were spared, too. Full story: https://t.co/sAu42I1Isc

@CHold @Jrue_Holiday11 @toomany_buckets See you in Phoenix #ripcity

[Sheldrick Wildlife Trust @SheldrickTrust]

Latika was found at a waterhole in Tsavo East with a snare around her neck and no herd in sight. She was around 18 months old. She arrived at the Nairobi Nursery with her characteristic short trunk, big head, and — as the Keepers quickly discovered — an even bigger heart.

She turns 6 this week. In December, she graduated to our Umani Springs Reintegration Unit alongside Kerrio and Kamili, taking her next steps on the path back to the wild.

Happy birthday, Latika.

MSCI is a New York based, pubco ( $MSCI) with ~$5.3B in assets on its balance sheet.

70% ($3.7B) of MSCI's assets are classified as “intangible” (goodwill and other intangible assets).​

At the same time, MSCI is proposing to exclude companies whose digital asset holdings represent 50% or more of its total assets from the MSCI Global Investable Market Indexes...

Ironic that the “intangible” digital assets being targeted are exponentially more liquid, observable, and tradeable than goodwill and other legacy intangibles sitting on the rest of the worlds balance sheets....

We need to continue educating the world on Bitcoin, digital capital and digital credit.

Every setback is a setup for a comeback.

A single Facebook post can change your entire life — and for me, it truly did. It’s humbling to look back and realize that everything I’m doing today started with one simple post I made in 2015.

Long before any of this happened, I remember praying and asking God to use me as His vessel. He didn’t answer that day… or that month… or even that year. But a few years later, on a day I never saw coming, He showed me exactly what He had been preparing me for.

I’m still in awe of everything that has unfolded since. If you ask God to use you, He will — but it won’t always be on your timeline. During the waiting, He’s shaping you, strengthening you, and getting you ready for the moment your purpose unfolds. Trust the process.

My fourth self published children’s book, The 50 Yard Challenge: How a Simple Act Became a Nationwide Movement, is here! My first three books — One Lawn at a Time, Leaves, Litter & Leadership, and The Snow Squad’s Winter Rescue — reimagined parts of my real-life story as if I were a kid growing up today. But this new book is different — it’s me in the present day, running Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service and sharing real stories from my journey. It’s filled with heart, purpose, and the same message that started it all: that one act of kindness can spark a movement.

I had the honor of teaming up once again with the incredibly talented, award-winning children’s book illustrator Valeria Kornus, who has brought this story to life with her amazing artwork. Working with her again has been such a joy — she captured the spirit, emotion, and mission behind every page perfectly.

This book means so much to me, and I’m so proud of how it turned out. It’s more than just a story — it’s a celebration of service, growth, and the power of giving back.

Tonight I had the honor of being invited to Quay’s senior night. Can you believe he’s one of our longest-serving members of the 50 Yard Challenge? He joined when he was just nine or ten years old, and now he’s about to graduate high school and head off to college to study information technology. Watching his journey from a young boy mowing lawns to a young man preparing for his future truly fills my heart with pride.

Quay is in the school band.

Quay, as you finish this school year and step into this next chapter, remember this — the same dedication, kindness, and perseverance that carried you through 50 free lawns will carry you through life. Every lawn you mowed was a seed of service, and those seeds have grown into the strong, grounded, and purpose-driven person you’ve become.

Keep believing in yourself, keep serving others, and never forget that greatness isn’t about where you start — it’s about how you use your gifts to make a difference. You’ve already proven that you can change the world, one act of kindness at a time. The best is yet to come.

What do these 6 kids have in common ? They all completed our 50 yard challenge by mowing 50 FREE lawns in their cities for the elderly,disabled, single parents & veterans . Every 10 lawns they received a new color shirt & once they mow 50 they received their black shirt(like a black belt in karate) along with brand new mowers, weed eaters & blowers . Will your child be next to take on the 50 yard challenge ?

Raking leaves & snow shoveling included .

Kids can take part in any city/state . Raking leaves & snow shoveling counts too in the fall & winter.
