SERVICE
I’ve been trying to put into words what I saw last night.
What struck me most wasn’t the fight, the venue, or the people in attendance.
For one night, the focus was on veterans, service members, first responders, and the men and women who have dedicated their lives to something bigger than themselves. I honestly can’t remember ever seeing an event of that scale centered around honoring them.
As I walked away, one thought stayed with me.
Of all the things I’ve accomplished in my life, the greatest honor I’ve ever earned is knowing that one day, when my time comes, an American flag will be draped over my body.
Not because of who I am, but because of what that flag represents.
Freedom. Opportunity. Love. Faith. Good.
When I think about last night, that’s what it was really about.
A country honoring those who have served it, and a reminder that there is no greater privilege than earning the right to be covered by the flag of the nation you love.
Thank you, President @realDonaldTrump , for opening the White House and creating an opportunity for so many Americans to come together and celebrate this country and the people who have dedicated their lives to serving it.
God Bless America. 🇺🇸
YET EVEN MORE HILLARY
In 97, as their military aide, I accompanied the Clintons on an event in DC. We were on our way to a fundraising event one night. As the motorcade pulled into the hotel loading dock area, I knew it was going to be a bad night when I noticed the Clintons going back and forth in the limo. They were animated and arguing in the backseat…and taking their time.
After a very pregnant pause, the president, the first lady, two Secret Service agents, the WH doctor, and I crowded into the loading dock elevator on our way to the party on the top floor of the hotel. Apparently, Mrs Clinton had just received some bad news about the Whitewater investigation and being denied immunity and she was blaming her husband. As soon as the elevator doors closed, she exploded at the president spewing four-letter words like a machine gun.
Every vulgar word you’ve ever heard, and I’ve heard them all as a vet, poured from her mouth: “Goddammit,” “you bastard,” “it’s your fucking fault!” And on and on and on. I, and the football, tried to blend into the walls of the elevator to avoid any collateral damage. I noticed the alarmed glances of the agents and the doctor. We were just along for the ride.
Bill looked a beaten puppy. He put his head down and said, “Yes, I understand. Yes, dear, I know.” The president, embarrassed, placated her as best he could between the volleys of expletives. He knew better than to fight back. We all did.
We reached the top floor and the elevator doors opened onto a crowded hallway for our arrival. Immediately, Bill and Hillary clasped hands, pulled out the fake smiles, and waved in unison. Same old bullshit. The agents, the doctor and I just looked at each other, rolled our eyes, and sighed.
Just another day in the Clinton White House.

To recall an Alaska state senator, petitioners must first gather signatures equal to 25% of the total votes cast in the preceding general election for that specific senate district. If enough signatures are verified, the recall is placed on a ballot, where a majority of voters must choose to remove the senator.
🚨 THREAD: What do Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Elaine Chao have in common? They were all paid by a Marxist-Islamist Iran group that was designated as terrorist until 2012.
No, this is not a joke.
Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) was founded by leftist Islamists to oppose the western-backed Pahlavi, and participated in his 1979 overthrow. Khomeini barred MEK afterwards. MEK was implicated in multiple bombings, including that of Americans, and remained an openly armed group until 2003.
Since they got de-listed as a terrorist organization in 2012 on procedural grounds, MEK and their fronts have been actively recruiting US politicians selling themselves as a moderate alternative to Khomeini. But RAND Corporation says MEK meets the qualifications for a cult, citing criteria such as forcing their members to work 16+ hour days and forced divorces.
Polls of the Iranian-American community shows that they do NOT accept Rajavi, MeK's leader, as legitimate, with a 46-point net disapproval - numbers nearly as bad as the existing regime.
As Pence's former Chief of Staff, Marc Short, has already weighed against Trump deal, it's helpful to recall this.
Receipts below. As always, patience as I pull the thread together.👇
Here it is:
One of the most intensive election fraud investigations in Arizona election history.
CONFIRMED: The State Government of Arizona has been toppled.
Despite Secretary of State Katie Hobbs and her co-conspirators swearing up and down that 59% of the tabulator machines totaling 446 that shut down on Election Day, had been tested on October 11, system log files CONFIRM they were not. However, the system log files do show without a shadow of a doubt—sedition, conspiracy, and treachery on the 14th, 17th, and 18th—seals were illegally removed and machines reprogrammed, all captured on surveillance video.
Kari Lake is the only candidate in United States history who is simultaneously a governor and a U.S. senator.
📝 Now arrest Katie Hobbs and her co-conspirators, including Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson, at once for the crime of sedition—having conspired to overthrow the State Government of Arizona and covered it all up.
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson should serve in a maximum-security federal prison for the rest of his natural life, but for no less than 59 years—even if death arrives early.
Save the Republic and pass the SAVE 🇺🇸 Act!
This is because your sports team won? No. It’s because once you teach animals they can get away with whatever, they do it over and over and over again.
@FrankPallone But Frank's not counting every nickel. In fact, by any standards, he's rich. They always make their money by "investing", but never disclose where the money came from to invest.
There is nothing more pathetic than the feral behavior of low IQ mobs after a sporting event.
Grown men - fabulously wealthy, many of whom are horrible, barely literate human beings - playing a game with a ball.
And people who watch them - who don’t make any contributions to the outcome - turn into complete animals and destroy their city.
