Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) delivers an incredibly powerful speech about Iran.

Watch every second of this.

"Yesterday we saw the president of the United States and many others at Dover Air Force Base presiding over a ceremony that is very sacred to those of us who served, and that is a dignified return of remains from the war zone.

That process happens beginning in the war zone through Dover to the hometown of our fallen heroes. I participated in many of those ceremonies myself to include carrying friends of mine off the plane.

One of those is on this bracelet. He was cut in half by an Iranian EFP.

This regime that we are fighting does not care about our partisan politics. They don't care who you voted for, who you pray to, or where you live. They want to kill all of us. And they don't just say it, they actually do it, and they've been doing it for forty-seven years.

This is a war of choice. The Democrats are correct. It's a war of choice that was begun by a radical lunatic band of terrorists that took over a beautiful nation 47 years ago, took it over with brutality, force, and savagery. And the second they took it over, they didn't free their people, they didn't unleash the largest oil reserves in the world to build schools and bridges.

They took it over to murder their own people and to spread their disgusting ideology across the world, and that is exactly what they have been doing. They don't just say it and talk about it. You don't have to believe what they say. You can simply watch what they've done.

They have attacked families, women, children, innocent people. They don't just attack them and kill them, they rape them. They skin them alive on camera. They celebrate it. They honor those people who do disgusting things that we would put in jail for the rest of their lives in this country, and they do it for fun, and they pay them money to do it, and they're heroes to that nation.

They've done it to friends of mine. They've done it to families who've been in this chamber. And the fact that we sit here and listen to elected officials of this country defend these lunatics who want us all dead. They want all of you dead. They want all of us dead.

They don't want us to disappear with a snap of a finger. They want us to be raped, burned alive, and cut into pieces. Watch the video from October 7. That's what they want to happen from Maine to San Diego, from Seattle to Miami. They want this country turned into a burning husk of its former self, and you don't have to theorize that.

That's what they do. From the 1983 barracks bombing, where 280 Marines were vaporized in a morning, from USS Cole to the Achille Lauro, to every terrorist attack, from the Houthis, Hezbollah, Hamas. These are not humanitarian freedom organizations. They are death-dealing cults, and they want all of us to die brutal deaths.

William Buckley was abducted in 1985, an American military officer. He was skinned alive on camera by the Iranians. American prisoners of war who were captured. They were never called prisoners of war because they were captured by lunatic terrorists, so they were not subject to the Geneva Convention. They were captured and murdered, power drills through their brains. This is in Iraq. These are families that have dealt with this, and they've never gotten a single dime.

These families have never gotten restitution, and not a single president has ever stood up to them. Love Donald Trump or hate him, love his policies, hate ICE, love ICE, whatever. There's never been a single president who has stood up to Iran and hit back. For 47 years, our troops and our families have been absorbing attack after attack after attack all over the world.

And their radical ideology does not stop at the Persian Gulf. It doesn't stop at Tel Aviv. They want to do this everywhere. It's a global radical ideology, and we've been fighting it for half a century.

We didn't start this war. We did not, but we will finish it. And forever wars are not popular with anybody these days. Both sides of the love to attack our forever wars. And I can promise you, being someone overseas wearing the uniform, when you're fighting for your country, you don't care what party's in office, but you're fighting to defend your country, and you turn on the news and see your elected officials stabbing you in the back, telling you that you're failing, that you've failed every goal of the war, is what I just heard.

Last time I checked, we've wiped these bastards out. An occasional missile strike and boats in the straits, that's not military strength. Those are the flailings of a failing empire. Those are the flailings of a nation in collapse because they deserve it. So I encourage our colleagues on both sides of the aisle, whatever's politically convenient, whatever plays well on Twitter or Facebook, think about the people who are deployed right now, standing on that wall with a loaded weapon, who have volunteered to defend our country and our way of life.

Because they are there defending us in a just war, because we did not start a war with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. They started it with us 47 years ago, and their attacks have gone unanswered for half a century. It's time to fix this problem and make sure another generations of Americans does not have to fight this murderous, savage adversary."

Youth sports is on life support.

If you think it’s fine, you’re not paying attention.

Kids age 10-12 are playing way too many tournaments and travel ball. Parents treat it like the World Series. They need less travel, more rest, fueling, and actual development. They’re 12 YO.

The data backs it up:
❌70% of kids drop out of organized sports by age 13.
❌Professionalization (year-round single-sport focus, heavy travel/tournaments) drives overuse injuries, overtraining, and burnout.
❌Nearly 1 in 10 youth athletes experience burnout; up to 35% deal with overtraining.
❌Early specialization before 12-13 raises injury and burnout risks significantly.

Multi-sport kids who rest and play for fun stick around longer and develop better.

Let them be kids. Prioritize recovery, fun, and long-term health over trophies. The best athletes often sample multiple sports early and specialize later.

Who else sees this?

[Supersonic Redhead🛫 @Supersonic_Red]

There’s a generation a lot of people forget exists. We were born at the tail end of the Boomers, but we are not culturally the same as people born in the 40s and early 50s. We are Generation Jones.

And honestly, it explains a lot.

We grew up in a world that still felt fundamentally analog, but we were young enough to be dragged headfirst into the digital revolution. We are the bridge generation between rotary phones and smartphones, between slide rules and AI, between Walter Cronkite and algorithm driven media.

We remember when there were only a few television channels and the entire country watched the same thing at the same time. We also adapted to the internet, email, forums, social media, streaming and now artificial intelligence. We lived before and after the technological singularity hit everyday life.

That is not a small thing.

People born in the 40s came of age in a post World War II America that was still industrial, deeply hierarchical and institutionally stable. Their formative years were shaped by the Cold War, Vietnam, the civil rights era and a society where information moved slowly.

Generation Jones came later. We inherited the aftermath of all of that.

We were the kids who watched Watergate destroy blind trust in government. We watched manufacturing begin to collapse. We saw divorce rates explode. We were the first truly latchkey generation in massive numbers. We learned independence early because many of us had to.

We grew up with one foot in old America and one foot in whatever this new thing was becoming.

We played outside until the streetlights came on but we also learned DOS commands. We learned cursive and keyboarding. We had card catalogs and Google searches. We went from vinyl records to cassette tapes to CDs to MP3s to streaming in one lifetime.

We remember maps. We remember memorizing phone numbers. We remember life before GPS and before every human interaction became filtered through a screen.

And because of that, I think Generation Jones developed a very unique perspective. We are adaptable because we had no choice but to adapt. We learned technology as adults instead of being born into it. We remember a slower world but were forced to survive in a rapidly accelerating one.

That creates a very different mindset than either older Boomers or younger Gen X and Millennials.

A lot of us also reject the caricature people now associate with “Boomers.” We were not buying houses for the cost of a sandwich in 1965. The interest rate on my first house was over 14% and that was after buying down a point. Many of us got hit by recessions, outsourcing, pension collapses and economic instability just like younger generations did. We watched promises evaporate in real time.

We understand older generations because we were raised by them. We understand younger generations because we had to evolve alongside them.

That’s why the Jones generation often feels culturally homeless. We are rarely discussed, rarely defined and usually lumped into categories that don’t actually fit us.

But we exist.

We are the human transition point between the industrial age and the digital age.

And frankly, there will probably never be another generation quite like us again.

@RussJoh62988328 @TeamPillen @NEGOP Why didn't they recruit a better option?

[Jeff Moore @jmoore58]

This morning @TeamPillen gave the middle finger to rural Nebraska. @TeamPillen and his cronies on the SAFFAA Board denied every rural community ask that would have driven significant economic value to those communities and the State and ignored the ROI to the State. Of course the boondoggle soccer stadium in Omaha gets approved along with his buddies Lincoln volleyball ask. @NEGOP should be embarrassed this simpleton is their choice for Governor. Iowa, SD, Kansas all thank you for driving business to them.

@POTUS @realDonaldTrump should rethink his endorsement of this clown. @teampillen runs counter to everything @realDonaldtrump would get done from an economic standpoint in Nebraska.

I wasn’t happy when Clinton, Obama or Biden won, but I didn’t call them fascist/dangerous/threat to democracy. I didn’t hope someone would assassinate them. I went on with my life with gratitude. Friends on the left, please try this. Your life and our country will be better.

[InfantryDort @infantrydort]

You can get mad at the strong words on Iran if you want.

But the Iranian regime and the Islamic fundamentalists who run it only understand one language: power.

They worship death and martyrdom. They want to go out in a blaze of glory on their own terms. Soft diplomatic language and veiled threats are seen as weakness, and they exploit it.

Your only chance at any semblance of negotiation must be spoke bluntly, credibly, and with bluster. This morning's message (among others) is proof of that. As uncouth as you think those words are... well.. you need to understand the language of terror. You must become it.

Either way, it worked for now. Iran quickly came back with a 10 point proposal and agreed to a two week ceasefire with safe passage through the Strait.

Hardline regimes don’t come to the table because you’re polite. They come when the alternative is made unbearable. Power is the ONLY thing they respect.

How do you bring an ideology to the table that only worships death? You somehow become more intimidating than death itself.

These words will offend some of you. I don't know what to tell you. It's dangerous out there. Take it from those of us who've locked horns with these people before. You don't have to learn fresh lessons on how they operate.

Your war veterans have learned them for you. And many of those scarred by GWOT advise the president himself today. Sabre rattling is the language of the middle east. Except we don't just rattle it.

America doesn't just bark without a bite.

Adversaries would do well to remember this going forward.

I'm posting my comment on this as a quote tweet in hopes of getting maximum exposure of @JohnKiriakou's treasonous malfeasance. I've never asked for a retweet before and I'm not monetized, but I'm asking now. This is unforgivable.

And for those thinking this may further complicate the issue by putting more eyes on his reckless words - John has become a TikTok idol for similarly irresponsible statements, lies and allegations for months now. Every foreign intelligence agency, including Iran's, has long ago put him on their radar. The deed is long done.

🚨EPSTEIN FILES NOTE🚨

I want every sex offender related to Epstein buried under a prison…right next to the sex offenders I’ve already buried there. As a career prosecutor, I spent nearly my entire adult life fighting for victims of crime and this is no different. What person of conscience could be against bringing sex offenders and rapists to justice?!

That said, the criticism of @TheJusticeDept and @AGPamBondi for not bringing charges is unfounded. Charges require:

✔️provable, admissible evidence
✔️that can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt in court
✔️ brought within the statute of limitations (10 years)
✔️ a cooperating victim
✔️credible victim
✔️corroboration of the accusation (can’t just be her testimony)
✔️jurisdiction of the U.S.

I do not believe that AG Bondi or @DAGToddBlanche or @FBIDirectorKash would bury prosecutable charges after all of the scrutiny they’ve endured.

It’s true we thought there would be more prosecutions. It’s true we thought the “Epstein Files” would contain provable evidence. It’s true that it is disappointing there appears to be uncorroborated accusations that perhaps were worthy of greater investigation 15-20 years ago.

That cannot be the fault of this DOJ!

We must also concede that it is true that the Trump Administration is the ONLY administration to get us this far. People are being held accountable for their relationship with Epstein, albeit not through the justice system. For instance, the files have netted information that revealed other alleged criminal behavior. Just ask Prince Andrew. Many have lost their jobs and influence. Maxwell sits in federal prison! This may be the best we can do…but it’s more accountability brought by the Trump DOJ than every other DOJ combined. It’s also true that many of the allegations made in the files are not credible and simply false. This is why an accusation alone can never predicate a criminal charge. Multiple DOJs from both parties have had decades to analyze evidence and bring charges. Only Trump investigated and charged Epstein and Maxwell for their disgusting human trafficking.

And one more thing…there is no shortage of cameras and column space where any victim can name their abuser directly this very second. That’s not happening, for whatever reason. I’d encourage the loudest among them to do so and be prepared to present credible evidence of the abuse beyond the mere accusation. An accusation cannot morph into an indictment. If it did, it would quickly mutate into an acquittal.

Also, the “pedo protector” tropes are simply defamatory and obnoxious when what I’ve just described is pointed out, often by career prosecutors like me. It’s a disgusting, malign slur that offers no value in discourse. In the same way the false accusations from “victims” harm the credibility of real victims, these tropes all atrophy into cover for real pedo protectors.

There is a special place in Hell for Epstein and those like him. I’m comforted by the fact that justice WILL come to them all…in this life or the next.

Just my $.02.
