@FreddyLA7 So glad you got to experience Buc-ees! Absolutely essential destination on a road trip 😁

Months of work, condensed into seconds. Watch the transformation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool as crews drained, repainted, and refilled one of America's most iconic landmarks ahead of a busy summer season in Washington, D.C.

@CYAssets325 @TheMuppetPastor Yeah, that's been seriously disheartening to read.

@dachsiemoron @thisissavvy1 He knew someone that was on that team

Seven-yr-old, Ellison, has down syndrome and struggles with sensory overload.

His parents used to dread haircuts until they met Vernon Jackson, a local barber.

🚨 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!"

🇺🇸🇺🇸👏🏻

🚨 Meet Doris, she lives in California and is registered as a 126 year old who has voted in 51 elections and has NO IDEA.

California’s voting system is so corrupt that by simply knocking on the door of the “126 year old” proves election fraud.

EXPOSE IT ALL.

@xmsnman @nicksortor In Texas, we don't have different degrees for m*rder charges.

[MandyinTX @Mandolynn13]

@forestvanslyke It's so important to be open to debate, open to reevaluating, open to being wrong. That's the way we develop authentic, strong beliefs. Praying you are open to the truth of Jesus, too... Read the New Testament book of John if you're curious

[Echoes of War @EchoesofWarYT]

250 years ago today, a man stood up in a room full of nervous delegates and said the words that made America inevitable.

Not Thomas Jefferson. Not George Washington. Not Benjamin Franklin.

A Virginia planter named Richard Henry Lee.

It was June 7, 1776. The war had already been going for over a year. Men were dying. Cities were burning. And yet the Continental Congress still had not officially declared independence from Britain.

That morning, Lee rose and read aloud a resolution he had been instructed to deliver by Virginia:

"That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved."

John Adams immediately seconded it.

The room erupted.

The debate that followed was so heated that Congress had to table the vote entirely. New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and South Carolina were not ready. Their delegates had not been authorized to vote for independence. Some feared it was too soon. Some feared it was treason.

So Congress bought time. They postponed the vote for three weeks and quietly appointed a committee to draft a formal declaration, just in case the resolution passed.

That committee included Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman, Robert Livingston, and a soft-spoken 33-year-old Virginia lawyer known for his elegant writing.

Thomas Jefferson.

Jefferson wrote the Declaration. It was adopted July 4. The world celebrated.

And Richard Henry Lee, the man whose words started everything, whose resolution is the reason any of this happened?

He had already gone home to Virginia. He missed the signing entirely.

Jefferson is immortalized. Lee is a footnote.

History is funny that way.

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

This is the PERFECT example of why foreigners should not be allowed to run for office

Zul Mohammed just ran for Mayor of Carrollton, Texas. He’s from Pakistan

“No vet has made any sacrifice. I want to make that clear. I do not support the US military. No, I do not support the United States. I look down on both entities. I want to make that clear”

I can’t think of a better example of why only natural born citizens should be allowed to run for office

Also he is a Muslim, which further enforces the classic “I do not support the United States”

We need new election eligibility laws

[MandyinTX @Mandolynn13]

@ItsRobbAllen I heartily agree. Find a church that preaches from the Bible and mentions current events as little as possible. The thing is, if we are following Jesus and love Him, we will engage our culture as He would.

[Lila Rose @LilaGraceRose]

Every year, Tim Tebow hosts a red carpet event celebrating the humanity of people with disabilities, including those with Down syndrome.

In a culture that too often erases people with disabilities, events like this reflect their God-given dignity and immeasurable worth.

An inability does not determine a person’s humanity.

[Lila Rose @LilaGraceRose]

In a world that destroys children with Down syndrome, listen to this brave girl:

“You can try to kill off everyone with Down syndrome by using abortion, but you won’t be any closer to a perfect society. You will just be closer to a cruel, heartless one."  

Charlotte Helene Fien speaks before the United Nations

[Answered Satyr, GED ✝️🇺🇸 @AnsweredSatyr]

@GatesGarciaFL @McJuggerNuggets What would a person with down syndrome think? It's right here, recorded in a public testimony before government representatives of the people. Not a mystery. On record.
"I am a man with down syndrome. And my life is worth living".

@saltwatrcowboy9 @TheMuppetPastor Genuine question: does everything come back to Trump for y'all? Good grief, this has nothing to do with the president. The whataboutism is insane
