Sent to us from an officer who told us this was filmed last Wednesday afternoon at Riverside Veterinary Clinic in Indianapolis, Indiana. Made us stop in our tracks and left us in TEARS. Here it is, in it's entirety:
"The officer is Sergeant Paul Greer. He's 41 years old. Fourteen-year veteran of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
The dog is Bruno. A ten-year-old German Shepherd who served eight years as Paul's K9 partner before a joint condition ended his working career two years ago.
When Bruno retired from active duty, Paul adopted him immediately. Brought him home. Bruno spent his retirement on Paul's couch, on Paul's bed, in the passenger seat of Paul's personal truck.
The transition from working partner to household companion was seamless. Bruno had always been Paul's dog. The badge and the vest were just part of the job.
Over the past several months, Bruno's condition had declined steadily. The joint condition spread. He had difficulty getting up. Stopped eating regularly.
Paul had been managing Bruno's comfort with guidance from Dr. Angela Reese at Riverside for months. Last Tuesday evening, Bruno stopped getting up entirely. Paul called Dr. Reese that night. Wednesday afternoon, Paul drove Bruno to Riverside.
He carried Bruno in from the truck himself. Wouldn't let the techs take him. Paul's partner, Officer Dana Choi, came with him. She filmed quietly on her phone from the corner of the room.
She told us afterward that she asked Paul's permission before she started recording. He nodded.
Paul sat on the exam table with Bruno cradled across his lap and chest. Bruno's head rested against Paul's shoulder. His eyes were half-open. His breathing was slow and easy. Paul bowed his head and pressed his face into Bruno's fur. Bruno lay still for a long moment.
Then slowly — carefully — he raised both front paws. One at a time. And wrapped them around Paul's shoulders. And held on.
Paul made a sound that Dana said she will never forget. Dr. Reese, who was standing nearby preparing, went completely still. Her assistant took a step back. Nobody moved.
Dana told us: 'Bruno could barely lift his head that morning. But he lifted his paws and he held Paul. In that moment, with everything he had left, he held him. I think he was saying thank you. I think he was saying goodbye on his own terms.'
Paul stayed in that position for a long time. The room stayed quiet. Bruno passed away peacefully a short time later, held in Paul's arms.
Paul sent a message to his precinct group chat that evening. It said: 'Bruno is at rest. He was the best partner I ever had. Eight years on the force and two years at home. He worked hard and he loved hard and he went out the same way. Holding on.'
The precinct held a small informal memorial the following morning. Bruno's vest and badge number were framed and hung in the K9 unit hallway.
Some partners carry you through the hardest years of your life. And in the end, if you're very lucky, they find just enough strength to hold you one last time."

George Burns turned a simple health question into a perfect comedy moment. When someone on live TV asked how many cigars he smoked and what his doctor thought, he replied with flawless timing: “My doctor is dead.”
He delivered the line in the late 1980s, cigar in hand and that familiar sparkle in his eye, and it quickly became comedy history. Burns kept that same wit, charm, and effortless cool all the way to age 100.
Some of the coolest moments captured on camera: https://t.co/wo59YrCdzj
I am in total shock. President Trump surprises fans by bringing an actual BALD EAGLE to Freedom 250 UFC’s Historic Weigh in
FEELS SO GOOD TO BE BACK
Liberals can’t stand this 🔥
Don’t bring a knife to school.
Don’t bring a knife to a track meet.
And let’s say Austin Metcalf was a bully, even though there was no evidence that Austin ever beat that boy up.
That still does not give anyone the right to pull out a knife and stab another kid.
Kids argue. Kids fight. Kids get into it at school and at events. Most of us have seen fights, been in fights, or dealt with bullies growing up.
But a school fight should never end with someone being stabbed to death.
So miss me with the self-defense crap.
Austin lost his life, and his family can never get him back.
Hey Jasmine…
Black pilot here.
I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.
I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.
Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”
That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.
Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.
And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.
They care whether the pilot is qualified.
Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.
And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.
🚨 WOW! Dr. ALVEDA KING just said it PERFECTLY on Capitol Hill
"I still have a dream. I dream that one day we will move beyond black power and white power and embrace GOD'S power and human dignity!"
"I reject the notion that Americans who hold traditional Christian beliefs should be treated as THREATS or TERRORISTS simply because we disagree with a prevailing political thought!" 🙏🏻
"I dream that Americans will one day see each other, not as enemies, but as neighbors. I dream that we will hear each other, see each other, and recognize that every human life has value from the womb to the tomb and beyond."
"We are as scripture teaches, one blood, one human race. And if we remember that truth, we can build a future worthy of the sacrifices made by those who came before us."
"We must speak out for truth and against the forces that would manufacture hate, fear, division, and violence simply to line their pockets and further their political ambitions."
"God bless America, God bless you!"

“It was one of the most monumentally unselfish things one group of people did for another.”
-#DDay veteran Andy Rooney on the young 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇬🇧 soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy 82 years ago.
Required watching for every young person today!
Further, I’ve never seen so many people
out on a Sunday night at the Lincoln Memorial to see the reflection. Decline is a choice - as is refusing decline, putting in the work to keep things beautiful and being proud of our capital city/our incredible country. 🇺🇸
37 years after the Tiananmen Square massacre, the Chinese Communist Party still fears the memory of that night, because it reveals who they truly are.
On June 4 at the Tiananmen Memorial in Washington, DC, I spoke about the slaughter that should have changed everything, the decades of quiet accommodation that followed, and why standing with those who still resist the regime’s demand for total (actual or performative) submission is more urgent than ever.
I also highlighted a remarkable new series of never-before-seen photographs from June 4, 1989, published today on the front page of The Epoch Times. Please take a moment to view them (the link is in the thread below!)
Here are my full remarks 37 years after the Tiananmen Square massacre, at the Victims of Communism (@VoCommunism) Memorial, Washington, DC, June 4, 2026:
Good evening, everybody.
My name is Jan Jekielek. I'm the senior editor at the @EpochTimes and author of a book titled Killed to Order: China's Organ Harvesting Industry and the True Nature of America's Biggest Adversary. And this nature is something that we haven't gotten right, and we should have when Tiananmen Square happened, when the massacre happened.
So, tonight we remember the victims of the Tiananmen Square massacre, the students, the workers, and the ordinary citizens murdered on June 4, 1989 for daring to imagine a freer China.
On the front page of The Epoch Times today we are publishing a whole series of never-before-seen photos that were contributed to us recently. They were taken by a state media photographer 37 years ago. These are very powerful images. I encourage you to check it out. The person who put these together, Eva Fu (@EvaSailEast), she's actually here doing an article on this event, so I hope you get a chance to speak with her later today.
It's a striking historical fact that the same day, June 4, 1989, Poland held its first semi-free parliamentary election since the communist era. Solidarity won a landslide victory, and hope began to spread across Eastern Europe, and the Berlin Wall fell. In Poland, people chose freedom, but in China, the regime chose slaughter.
The massacre itself was monstrous, but hope died twice that year, first in the blood of the streets of Beijing, and again when the United States responded not with sustained accountability but with quiet accommodation.
Just weeks after the killings, the administration at the time secretly dispatched the National Security Advisor and the Deputy Secretary of State to Beijing. Their mission was to signal to the Chinese leadership that America would ride out the storm of public outrage and work to restore the strategic relationship. Most Americans never knew about this back-channel.
For decades, we pursued a policy of engagement, telling ourselves the comforting story that trade and money would change China, that economic integration would liberalize the regime and make it a responsible stakeholder. The opposite happened: The Chinese Communist Party changed us.
It turned us, it turned our openness into vulnerability. It captured influence in our institutions. It made us economically dependent on a system built on lies, on repression, and on brutality.
And then, in the year 2000 the regime launched something even darker, a large-scale industrialized forced organ harvesting industry built on the bodies of Falun Gong practitioners, which they had started persecuting the year before.
The crime rested on two pillars, very vicious dehumanizing propaganda, and also a vast system of mass arbitrary detention that eventually ended up serving as the source of the organs.
For 14 or 15 years, the world largely turned away, and emboldened by this, the regime expanded the same machinery of dehumanization and mass incarceration to the Uyghur people, and perhaps even to others.
This is why the memory of Tiananmen remains so urgent. The Chinese Communist Party has never abandoned its core demand, total submission, or at least the appearance of it. Anyone who refuses, whether through faith, through conscience, or simple human dignity, becomes a target.
That is why we must stand with those who still resist:
• Falun Gong practitioners who continue to practice and speak the truth,
• and the millions who have joined the Quit the CCP or the @TuidangMovement to renounce their ties to the communist party, the youth league and the young pioneers,
• the white paper protesters of 2022 including brave young people like Zhang Junjie who stood alone in Beijing holding a blank sheet of paper a silent indictment of censorship and tyranny and paid a terrible price,
• Christians worshiping in underground churches,
• Tibetans demanding their culture and faith,
• and of course Uyghurs and Kazakhs enduring camps and surveillance,
• and every individual across China who chooses conscience over performative or actual loyalty.
Their courage is living proof that the spirit the regime tried to crush in 1989 is not dead today.
We are finally beginning to move in the right direction, I think, recognizing the true nature of the threat and starting to correct the mistakes of all-out engagement, but we must go further by remembering Tiananmen and standing firmly with all those who resist. We honor the dead and keep the flame of hope alive.
Thank you.

Thank you to all who fought and sacrificed in freedoms defense all those years ago. Incredible footage here. Blessed that both my uncles survived and will never forget the over 400,000 who did not come home.
Today, our current generation is focused on pronouns and pink hair. We’ve let this American spirit fade…
But, it’s not gone…it’s coming back!
Raise a glass to our men who liberated Europe.🍺
We lost 2500 heroes that day. 🇺🇸❤️
Sadly, many in the US have forgotten.
God Bless America!🇺🇸
82 years ago today, on the first boats that hit the beaches of Normandy, most of the young men never made it past the waterline.
They were 18, 19, 20 years old. Farm boys from Iowa🇺🇸 and Saskatchewan🇨🇦. Kids from Brooklyn and Toronto. Someone’s son. Someone’s brother. Someone’s sweetheart. Some were already fathers.
By nightfall the tide was pulling their bodies back out to sea.
They didn’t die for slogans. They died because two totalitarian regimes had plunged Europe into darkness — one of them the immediate enemy storming toward the beaches, the other, considerably more murderous over its history, fighting on the Allied side at the time, only to soon impose its own brutal dictatorship on much of Eastern Europe.
Look at their faces in the photographs. Really look.
These boys stepped off those ramps into withering fire knowing the odds were catastrophic. Many of them had never been in a foreign country. Most had never seen combat. They went anyway.
And because they did — Americans and Canadians fighting side by side, with the Canadians on Juno Beach punching above their weight and advancing farther inland than any other Allied force that day — the world was liberated from one of the darkest tyrannies in history.
Every argument you have online, every meal you eat without fear, every election you complain about, every church you attend or book you read in peace — all of it exists because these young men paid the ultimate price on a single morning in June 1944.
Freedom is never free. It was bought with their blood on those beaches.
The question isn’t whether we remember them.
The question is whether we’re still worthy of what they purchased.

🚨 JUST NOW: Tom Homan says even if rioters shut down Delaney Hall in Newark, ICE will simply take those detainees and fly them to places like Texas
Which means detainees LOSE the privilege of easy family visitation
Rioters CLEARLY haven’t thought this through😆
“If I can't detain them in that city where they're close to their families, then we'll have to move them someplace else. How does that benefit the migrant community?!”
“Because we're going to keep ARRESTING people. We're going to keep DETAINING people. We're going to keep REMOVING
people.”
“You’re NOT going to shut down ICE enforcement. You're certainly not going to abolish ICE. You're not going to stop us from doing our job.”
— @RealTomHoman
37 years ago today, the CCP launched its brutal crackdown on the peaceful student-led protests in Tiananmen Square. What made this atrocity especially shocking was that it unfolded before the eyes of the world, broadcast live on TV.
In the decades since, the CCP has worked relentlessly to erase this chapter of history. Many younger Chinese have little knowledge of this horrific event, and this year, for the first time, authorities banned families from visiting the public cemetery where many victims are buried.
Meanwhile, here in the U.S., leftists attempt to rewrite history by drawing false comparisons between rioters and the Chinese students who stood up to a tyrannical regime, and between ICE enforcing immigration law and the CCP’s military opening fire on protesters.
We must not forget the history and horror of the Tiananmen Square massacre. We must teach future generations about the horrors of communism and how precious liberty truly is.
This is Todd “Let’s Roll” Beamer, who died heroically while trying to retake United Flight 93 from Al Qaeda terrorists on 9/11. His final resting place, is in Cranbury, NJ — where he was living with his wife and children before his murder. Cranbury is located in NJ-12, where the new Democratic nominee for Congress is Adam Hamawy.
Hamawy was a close associate and translator to Omar Abdel-Rahman, aka the ‘Blind Sheikh,’ an arch terrorist convicted of masterminding multiple plots against targets in NYC — including the World Trade Center. Hamawy testified at Adbel-Rahman’s trial, as a defense witness.
It has also been reported that Hamawy traveled to Bosnia to volunteer at an organization that was later unmasked as an Al Qaeda front group.
One of Hamawy’s loudest and most high-profile supporters and endorsers has openly declared that America deserved the 9/11 attacks.
Hamawy is now the prohibitive frontrunner to represent Todd Beamer’s district in the United States Congress.
If the KC Chiefs are still the Chiefs, and the Atlanta Braves are still the Braves, then why are the Cleveland Indians the Guardians and the Washington Redskins the Commanders?
