Tomorrow, on Memorial Day, I’m releasing a special segment with Ron White. From memory alone, Ron recalls every name, by rank, in order, of every U.S. service member killed in the Afghanistan war, from the very first casualty all the way to the final 13. Over two hours straight.
In the full episode (dropping Tuesday), Ron walks through exactly how he did it, including using the studio itself to visually anchor the names of the final 13 to objects around the room.
His closing message is one we should all carry with us. May we never forget their sacrifice.

Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild.
A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute.
Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home.
So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room.
The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely.
The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running.
Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.
I love this kid😂😂😂 got randomly attacked walking feet in front of his parents but handles his news interview like a legend.
These used to be the only viral type videos we got.. i miss them..

You'll only hear my opinion on this once.
Super Bowl LX is engineered to be the most vicious, deliberate middle finger to America in the history of this republic, and they planned every second of it with cold, calculated malice.
They picked Levi’s Stadium in the heart of woke California...ground zero for the cultural demolition crew...to stage this ritual humiliation.
Halftime? Bad Bunny.
A Puerto Rican reggaeton star who will perform mostly in Spanish.
First “Latino” solo headliner, first Spanish-language dominance on the biggest American stage.
Not a coincidence. This is linguistic and cultural replacement in real time, broadcast to 100+ million people.
They want you to feel like a stranger in your own country.
Green Day opening?
The same Billie Joe Armstrong who screamed “Fuck America” and called Trump a Nazi on stage.
They brought him back to piss on the flag again while the crowd sings along.
Psychological warfare: normalize hatred of traditional America, make patriotism feel like the fringe position.
Then the pre-kickoff circus: Coco Jones singing “Lift Every Voice and Sing”...the “Black national anthem” that conservatives correctly call divisive as hell.
Charlie Puth and Brandi Carlile doing the actual anthem and “America the Beautiful,” but sandwiched between identity-politics theater so the real anthem feels like an afterthought.
Even Trump called this shit out...said the entertainment “sows hatred” and he’s skipping the game.
But the NFL doesn’t care. They hate you.
They hate red America, flyover country, the people who built this nation.
This isn’t entertainment; it’s a psyop to erode national cohesion, to make you accept that “American” now means borderless, raceless, rootless global consumer sludge.
They timed it perfectly: peak division, post-election bitterness, immigration wars raging.
Every choice is a blade aimed at your identity.
They want you angry, alienated, and eventually apathetic...so you stop fighting when the next phase of the replacement rolls in.
This Super Bowl isn’t a game.
It’s a declaration of war on the historic American nation.
I'll be starving that fucking beast.
You couldn't pay me to watch a second of it.

So lemme get this straight.
Becomes U.S citizen in 2018 and becomes secret service in 2020?
Voted for Biden.
Divulging extremely classified data about VP and his family.
Speaks out publicly against current policies.
Checks out 👍🏼🤡
BREAKING: U.S. Secret Service Agent Assigned to VP JD Vance Leaks Sensitive Security Information to Undercover Reporter.
Escotto is a holdover from the Biden administration and stated that he voted for Joe Biden, while expressing opposition to ICE & the Trump administration’s immigration policies. “I hate that [ICE] sh*t.”
Tomas Escotto, a current U.S. Secret Service agent on Vice President JD Vance’s protective detail, was recorded on hidden camera providing an undercover journalist with sensitive security information, including protective formations, shift schedules, travel plans, & real-time locations.
The Secret Service agent detailed how the Vice President is physically surrounded, described multiple daily shift changes, & disclosed advance security procedures.
In addition to past movements, the agent revealed future travel plans, sometimes days in advance. Escotto even sent images from Air Force Two while onboard with the Vice President.
Despite acknowledging that he signed paperwork prohibiting the disclosure of sensitive information, the Secret Service agent repeatedly shared details with someone he believed was a casual romantic interest.
While the safety of the Vice President and his family was always our top priority, what OMG uncovered raises serious questions about operational security, protocol compliance, and oversight within the U.S. Secret Service.
Our team coordinated with the U.S. Secret Service ahead of publication, redacted sensitive operational details at their request.
We were just informed Tomas Escotto has been placed on administrative leave with his clearance suspended and access to agency facilities and systems revoked.

🚆 This 'milestone' is utterly laughable and a slap in the face to every California taxpayer! Back in 2008, voters were promised a game-changing high-speed rail linking LA to SF in just 2 h 40 min, fully operational by 2020, at a total cost of only $33 billion. It was sold as a visionary project that would revolutionize travel, cut emissions, & boost the economy. Fast forward 17 years, after blowing through over $13 billion with nothing but half-built viaducts, constant delays, legal battles, & bureaucratic excuses to show for it, & the grand plan has shriveled into a pathetic segment from Palmdale to Gilroy—two obscure endpoints that no one actually wants to go to or from, each still a grueling 2 hour drive away from real destinations like LA or SF. And even this watered-down version might not see the light of day until 2038, while the entire pipe dream now threatens to hit $135 billion or more with no realistic completion date in sight. Let's be real: no one will ever ride this boondoggle. Flying between LA and SF is already quicker and far cheaper, driving gives you flexibility without the hassle, and we have plenty of existing options like Amtrak or buses that don't require sinking billions into a system that's obsolete before it's even built. Amid California's crushing $18 billion+ budget deficit, where we're slashing essential services and scrambling for funds, continuing to pour money into this endless black hole is fiscal insanity. It's time to admit failure, cut our losses, and redirect those resources to things that actually help people—like fixing roads, improving public transit in cities, or addressing homelessness. End this scam once and for all, @GavinNewsom!
@BBiomechanics Respectfully how did he get to UCLA and the NBA with a shot like that? Did it develop into that or has this been a problem from the start?
