Five days after the LA election, Spencer Pratt falls to third place and a woman who hardly anyone voted for in person, Nithya Raman, totally dominated in mail voting to come in second. No one with a functional brain believes these results.

Ray’s Rock - Omaha Beach

On the morning of June 6, 1944, 23 year old Staff Sergeant Arnold “Ray” Lambert came ashore with the first wave of the 1st Infantry Division on the eastern side of Omaha Beach. At this small patch of concrete he saved nearly 20 lives:

The division came under intense fire from several German bunkers surrounding the entrance to the Colville Draw (one of two exits off Omaha Beach). Ray, a medic, immediately went to work.

He was shot in the arm. Moments later he was hit by shrapnel in the leg, but Ray kept pulling men to safety. He pulled nearly 20 wounded soldiers to cover behind this 8ft wide obstacle, treating each soldier before going out in search of others.

After several hours under fire, while pulling a wounded soldier from the ocean, he was struck by a landing craft. It dropped its ramp on top of him, breaking his back. He fell face down in the water, drowning. The craft backed up and nearby soldiers pulled an unconscious Ray to safety, eventually evacuating him off the beach.

Remarkably, Ray had already earned two Silver Stars and three Purple Hearts in Sicily and North Africa, prior to landing in France. But here in Normandy his war would end.

He awoke in a hospital back in England a day later. In the next bed over was his brother, who had also been wounded at Omaha.

When asked about his work on D-Day, Ray simply said, “I did what I was called to do.”

Ray Lambert passed in 2021 at 100 years old. He exemplified the best of American grit and why remembering this day is so important.

Spencer Pratt just released a POWERFUL new ad showing just how much hell Karen Bass put his family through by allowing their home to burn down

And Pratt’s one of THOUSANDS of innocent families going through this.

If Bass had ANY shame, she’d RESIGN.

Pratt MUST win.

In 458 BC, Rome was on the brink of collapse.

An invading army had trapped the Roman consul and his legion in a mountain pass. Panic spread through the city. The Senate did the only thing they could think of:

They sent messengers to find a 60-year-old farmer plowing his field.

His name was Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus. He had once been a senator, then lost his fortune paying his son's bail. Now he worked his own four-acre plot just to feed his family.

When the Senate's envoys arrived, they found him sweating behind a plow. They asked him to put on his toga so they could deliver an official message.

The message: Rome was making him dictator. Absolute power. Total command of the army. No checks. No oversight. No term limit.

He accepted.

Within 16 days, Cincinnatus had raised an army, marched out, surrounded the enemy, and forced their surrender. The republic was saved.

He had legal authority to rule for six months. He could have stayed. He could have expanded his power. He could have done what every other ruler in human history did when handed unlimited control.

Instead, he resigned on day 16.

He took off the toga, walked back to his farm, and finished plowing the field he'd left half-done.

Twenty years later, when Rome faced another crisis, they called him back. He was 80 years old. He took command, crushed the conspiracy, and resigned again, this time after just 21 days.

He died poor. On his farm.

2,200 years later, when George Washington was offered a kingship after winning the American Revolution, he refused and went home to Mount Vernon. The reason he was hailed as "the American Cincinnatus" is because Europeans literally could not believe a man who had won would willingly give up power.

King George III, on hearing Washington would resign rather than rule, said: "If he does that, he will be the greatest man in the world."

The lesson isn't that Cincinnatus was humble.

The lesson is that for most of human history, the people most qualified to lead were the ones who didn't want to. And the moment a society starts rewarding those who chase power instead of those who flee from it is the moment the republic begins to die.

Cincinnati, Ohio is named after him.

Most people who live there have no idea why.

One of the great political moves by the left in recent years has been convincing a large portion of America that "the rich" don’t pay taxes and it’s all poor people, when the exact opposite is true.

The Top 1% pay 46% of all income taxes.
The Top 10% pay 76% of all income taxes.

President Obama ordered a missile strike on December 17, 2009 in Yemen killing over 41 civilians including 21 children and 12 women, 5 of who were pregnant. Democrats did not call this a war crime nor did they try to remove him via the 25th amendment.

Stephen Colbert in 2022: I'll happily pay $15 a gallon for gas because I drive a Tesla and don't care!

Colbert in 2026: Oil prices are out of control! This is outrageous! Donald Trump is a moron!

That’s the definition of a hypocrite.

Clinton bombed Serbia's power plants for 78 days. Obama destroyed ISIS oil infrastructure serving millions. Neither faced war crime charges.

Now the same media calls Trump's possible Iran strikes a war crime? The legal standard tells a very different story.

Colonel was rescued in Iran

We lost $120M-$200M worth of Planes

We successfully saved our Warfighter

The left loses their mind over the cost

Yet Biden left ~ $90B dollars of equipment behind in Afghanistan and the Left was totally fine

Imagine

[🇺🇸𝕄𝔸𝔾𝔸 𝑵𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒚 ن ♱ @45LVNancy]

They fought the enemy for 13 hours

Multiple requests for help 🆘 DENIED

Obama gave a stand-down despite assets being just 2.5 miles away

They were abandoned to die as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, slept soundly in her bed

Don’t memory hole the betrayal of Benghazi

[Mark Noonan @Mark_E_Noonan]

Reminder: Bill Clinton left our boys hanging in Somalia.

Obama left them hanging in Libya.

Biden left them hanging in Afghanistan.

There isn’t a foul enough word to describe a CinC who does that.

Never seen the fake news media so giddy and excited and along with moronic people about a downed U.S. F15

These people truly hate the United States and our military.

It's sickening to watch.

BREAKING: According to CENTCOM, the second U.S. Air Force CSAR team sent into Iran to rescue the crew of the downed F-15E of the 494th Fighter Squadron has successfully located and rescued the second crew member.

He ejected, survived the crash, and is now safe in Iraq.

This is good news for the 48th Fighter Wing community at RAF Lakenheath—both crew members of the downed F-15E are now safe.

Also, the crew members of the second HH-60W helicopter involved in the rescue operation of the second crew member, which was shot upon by means of MANPADS, are also safe.

Left video below shows the second HC-130J involved in this operation over Khark Island and the right video shows the first one near Yasuj.
