I have the worst news...
A North Carolina father, Lester Jones, has been k*lled after he heard his 16-year-old daughter being beaten by her boyfriend with a pistol.
The father stepped between her and the gun, shielding his daughter from the bullets, ultimately giving his life to save her as the boyfriend opened fire, k*lling him.
His daughter survived due to her father's intervention, but is in the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.
Police say Lester's daughter's 17-year-old boyfriend punched her in the face and pistol-whipped her with a 9mm handgun in Concord, NC.
The father stepped in between them to protect her, taking multiple rounds himself, ultimately giving his life to save her.
The 17 year old, Keshaun Tirrell Degraffenreid, ran from police, but was eventually caught and has been charged with m*rder.
Due to Iryna's Law, he is being held in prison and will not get out. Please pray for the family and for the recovery of Lester's daughter who is in the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.
WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!
California…
91% mail in ballots.
Who handles the mail in ballots?
American Postal Workers Union.
National Postal Mail Handlers Union.
National Association of Letter Carriers.
All 3 have endorsed Democrat candidates for decades.
The voter fraud in California is staggering.
I would just like to point out that I have never once seen a hoard of Amish people destroy any property, anywhere, ever.
Not once in the entire history of the internet.
Dear Lord Above - here we go again....
Hello Congresswoman.....
Sounds like you got this weeks talking points about vanity projects, yada yada yada....
We've already corrected you colleague. Now its your turn it looks like...
The National Mall including the Lincoln Memorial and Reflecting Pool is managed by the National Park Service.
This restoration project is exactly the type of project the Great America Outdoors Act and Legacy Restoration Fund was created to address - maintenance backlogs.
Once again, Congress overwhelmingly voted for it, Democrats and Republicans alike.
We supported it because the oil and gas royalties we pay are directed into both of these funds.
Not entrance fees.
Oil and gas royalties from federal lands.
Once again, the upgrade to the National Mall is brought to you by your friends in the US Oil & Gas Association.
And finally, again -- here is a report from the Congressional Research Service.
Have you staff read it and tell you what it says....

On this night in 1781, one man on a horse saved the American Revolution from losing Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, and half of Virginia's government in a single morning.
You were never taught his name.
June 3, 1781. The British had chased Virginia's entire government out of Richmond. Jefferson, in his final days as governor, and the legislature had fled to Charlottesville, thinking they were safe in the foothills.
They were wrong.
That evening, 26 year old militia captain Jack Jouett was at a tavern in Louisa County when roughly 250 of the most feared cavalry in the British army came pounding down the road. Their commander: Banastre Tarleton, nicknamed "The Butcher," the man whose dragoons had cut down surrendering Americans at Waxhaws.
There was only one place they could be going. Charlottesville. 40 miles away. And the capture of Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence, would be the prize of the war.
Jouett couldn't outrun them on the main road. So he didn't use it.
He swung onto overgrown backwoods trails and the abandoned Old Mountain Road, riding 40 miles through the dark with only the full moon for light. Legend says low hanging branches whipped and scarred his face for life.
Tarleton stopped his men for a 3 hour rest. Jouett never stopped.
Before sunrise on June 4, he came up the mountain to Monticello and woke Jefferson. Then he rode down into Charlottesville and warned the legislature.
Jefferson got out with minutes to spare. British dragoons were coming up his mountain as he left. The legislature escaped over the Blue Ridge to Staunton. Tarleton caught only seven stragglers, one of them a frontiersman serving in the legislature named Daniel Boone.
Paul Revere rode about 12 miles in 1775 and got captured before reaching Concord. Longfellow wrote him a poem and made him immortal.
Jack Jouett rode 40 miles, lost nothing, saved everything, and got a thank you gift of two pistols and a sword from the Virginia Assembly.
No poem. No fame. Almost no memory.
How can Sara Jacobs @RepSaraJacobs be on the House Foreign Affairs Committee when she is dating the grandson of a Palestinian terrorist?
Her boyfriend is Ammar Campa-Najjar @ACampaNajjar. Ammar is running for Congress despite his family’s open Islamic terrorist ties. He deleted Instagram posts in which he praised his terrorist grandfather who murdered 11 innocent Jews at the 1972 Munich Olympics, and reminisced about how Yasser Arafat’s wife fed him soup when he was a baby. Yasser Arafat is the founding father and architect of Palestinian terrorism.
Sara Jacobs should not be allowed to serve on the House Foreign Affairs committee. How do we know she isn’t leaking sensitive national security information to her boyfriend who might be leaking it to Palestinian terror groups that consider his grandfather to be a martyr??
@SecRubio should see if any of @ACampaNajjar’s family members lied on their immigration forms. Maybe they should be deported.
Sara Jacobs comes from a billionaire Jewish family. Sara Jacobs' grandfather is Irwin M. Jacobs, the billionaire co-founder and former chairman of the telecommunications and semiconductor giant Qualcomm. A source told me her family allegedly threatened to take her out of the will if she married her Palestinian, terror tied boyfriend.
I don’t blame them. That type of mixing is diabolical.

He knows what’s coming… listen closely. 👀
TRUMP:
We had a rigged election, we can’t have rigged elections
DEVINE:
So someone has to be punished for that… how do you do that?
TRUMP:
I don’t want to get into it…
DEVINE:
Are you confident that something will happen?
TRUMP:
I don’t want to talk about it.. let’s see what happens. WE KNOW WHO RIGGED the elections. WE KNOW everything now.
Then he dropped a MOAB..
“You know when you get to office all of a sudden people start giving you things.”
I’m telling you right now, they are building a massive Rico conspiracy case dating back to the 2016 election. Trump knows, but it is very noticeable that he is distancing himself from what is coming. That is why Venezuela is in play, that is why we captured Maduro, that is why DNI is focused on Fulton County Georgia and Maricopa County Arizona. The building blocks are being put together for an airtight massive boomerang.

Rep. Al Green (D-TX): “Racists take offense at peaceful protests. A racist, Mr. Secretary, would do what happened to Ruby —”
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin: “Are you calling me a racist?”
Al Green: “Reclaiming my time, ask him to shut up.”
“Shut up! Shut up! It’s my time.”
Markwayne Mullin: “I’m not gonna let anybody call me a racist, chairman.”
“I will continue to interrupt as long as someone’s… calling me a racist.”
“Evidently, his constituents heard enough of him because they voted him out of office.”
Nailed it!
Spain, a NATO ally defended by the U.S. and host to a major U.S. Navy base, has now denied access to U.S. Merchant Marine ships not once, not twice, but THREE times for “ideological reasons”
Maybe it’s time to ask what exactly allies are for.
Hello Mr. Joshi,
Let me clarify the origins of the “civilization destroyer” comment which I believe is what you are alleging is a racial slur.
@infantrydort , yesterday asked me if I knew anything about you.
I pulled up your biography, which shows that you’ve been a career NGO foreign policy wonk, starting by interning for the National Democratic Institute in Russia (of all places) and spending the majority of your career in London being a fellow for Royal United Services Institute.
RUSI is the OG foreign policy thinktank, and as a senior fellow there during the Middle Eastern fallout, you’ve been cheering for America’s downfall for years. And if that weren’t enough, your last job before going to the Economist was to work for “Tony Blair Institute for Global Change.” Tony Blair himself - the man the media named as ending the Westphalia age.
If you’ve spent five minutes researching @infantrydort’s page, this IS exactly what he’s been railing against for months. He doesn’t give a poop about your skin color. He’s certainly never treated me any differently based on gender or disability.
He called you a civilization destroyer because you have been working in the circles that have been pushing to end Americanism all your life.
Don’t flatter yourself thinking he’s ever seen a picture of you. The insult was ideological.
This IS IMPOSSIBLE, and yet, the Senate will not pass the Save America Act.

BREAKING: North Carolina Senate just voted to OVERRIDE Democrat Governor Josh Stein's VETO of a bill opting in to Trump's school choice program.
The vote was 30–19.
The House already voted 73–46.
North Carolina is now the 31st state to opt in to Trump's school choice program.
When manufacturers moved overseas starting in 1971, they couldn't let people see the job losses. So what did they do?
They created GOVERNMENT jobs to replace every manufacturing job lost. Government workers produce nothing — but you can put them on the books without building a factory.
That's how the federal workforce became bloated. Trump is now reversing it — cutting government jobs and rebuilding real private sector ones.
@jamestalarico Hello Mr. Talarico,
I tried to write a reply that would make this post look worse.
After a few minutes I gave up.
You already achieved maximum jestergooning, to use that new GenZ phrase.

LFG! KEEP DOGEING 🔥
"It's been almost impossible to fire a federal employee."
"This treats employees like private sector workers."
"If they mess up, they can be removed quickly rather than taking long."
