🚨🗣️ Lionel Messi reveals the lesson fame taught him:
🗣️ Messi: “When I was younger, I thought winning trophies would make me happy forever. Then I realized happiness doesn’t work like that.”
“You can win everything and still feel pressure the next day. You can become famous and still miss simple moments with your family.”
“Football is my passion, but it is not my entire identity. One day football ends. The person you are remains.”
“That is why I always tried to stay close to the people who knew me before the trophies, before the headlines, before the world knew my name.”

Newly released video from the splashdown of Artemis ll on Friday, April 10, 2026, shows the moment that U.S. Navy Divers cracked the door open and entered the Orion to greet the Astronauts, welcoming them back to Earth after their journey around the Moon.
75K+ flowers -- donated to the Vatican -- came from the Netherlands to decorate St. Peter’s Square for Easter. A 35-person volunteer team assembles the display in three days, and many plants are later replanted or donated.

🚨 INCREDIBLE! This is a stunning drone light show depicting Jesus on the Cross (the Crucifixion)
It was created as part of the “Jesus Jesus Jesus” Holy Week event by The Church on Master’s Road in Manvel, Texas.
Thousands of synchronized drones lit up the night sky during Good Friday to tell the Gospel story in a powerful, modern way.
Absolutely breathtaking!
Over a century later, Belfast watches a full scale Titanic made of drones sail into the night. Titanic was originally built in Belfast, and launched there in 1911.
Reimagined in glowing drones, its
spirit, its echo into the future.
A powerful tribute
Tesla Semi just won over the toughest crowd in transportation: actual truckers.
Drivers who tested the pilot models say it's a game changer.
The cab puts you dead center so there's no right-side blind spot, plus screens show everything around the truck.
It goes 500 miles on a charge while competitors barely hit 225. Charges to 60% in 30 minutes, which is 4x faster than other electric trucks. Costs under $300k, about $100k cheaper than rival EVs.
California trucking companies just ordered over 1,000 Semis.
That's double the number of electric big rigs currently operating in all of Southern California.
The automatic transmission is easier on drivers' bodies compared to wrestling a 13-gear diesel all day.
Less maintenance too since there are fewer moving parts.
Tesla is expected to ship 5,000 to 15,000 Semis this year from the Nevada Gigafactory before ramping to 50,000 annually.
@elonmusk might've actually cracked the trucking code.

🚨 BREAKING
It’s a very dark day in Canada today.
The Liberals just voted down ALL FOUR Conservative public safety bills.
Bill C-246: consecutive sentences for sexual predators. So they serve time for EACH offence. Not a bulk discount.
VOTED DOWN.
Bill C-220: stop judges from giving lighter sentences to rapists and child predators because deportation might be a consequence.
VOTED DOWN.
Bill C-243: end the cycle that forces victims to relive their trauma at parole hearings year after year. Victims begged for this.
VOTED DOWN.
Bill C-242: the Jail Not Bail Act. Repeal catch and release for repeat violent offenders.
VOTED DOWN.
Tougher sentences for sex offenders? No.
Accountability for foreign criminals? No.
Mercy for victims? No.
Keeping dangerous people locked up? No.
Four bills.
Four chances to protect Canadians.
They said NO to all of them.
This is what they stand for.
NOTHING.
PS. What they will do tonight, is vote in favour of their own hate bill.
Because words matter more.
Friends, I was absolutely delighted to hear this morning that the Vatican will beatify Archbishop Fulton Sheen on September 24!
From the very beginning of my work in evangelization through the media, Sheen has been my model and inspiration.
I look forward with enthusiasm to calling on “Blessed Fulton Sheen” as a heavenly friend and intercessor.

🚨 BREAKING: US Treasury just sanctioned a Vancouver company (Seven Seas / 1380892 B.C. LTD) for laundering $100M+ to Hezbollah terrorists.
Canada’s government? Foreign Affairs Minister, PM?
Dead silence. Anita literally sprints past reporters asking about it.
Why is our country a safe haven for terror financing while our leaders cover their ears?
National security isn’t optional. This is dangerous.
Retweet if you want ANSWERS.
Airline pilot here:
I’ve made a few posts, for posterity it seems I should combine them so here goes:
I guess I should lead with the fact that I know LGA really, really well -
And having 1 controller working both ground and tower; late… on a Sunday is straight up normal. Anything you’re hearing about a controller shortage is BS. Should there be 1 guy working? No -
But it’s been that way as long as I can remember.
Second, if you listen to the audio. You can hear the controller try to stop the truck. Which means a few things. The truck took too long to cross after the initial clearance was issued. In LGA shit happens quickly. If you can’t execute you’re immediately stopped. So looking at the truck. He took too long to cross.. which means that he was either in the wrong position when he first called, or he was going too slow. BOTH are wrong. That’s problematic. So if you listen to the guy IN the truck.. he’s nervous. Classic low confidence read back. What that says to me?
He was in training.
Let’s investigate that a little further? If the fire department was going to train someone… you’d do it when it’s “quiet” right? Well, LGA is never more quiet than late, on a Sunday -
You starting to see it yet?
Now, the controller. Was task heavy already (being by himself) working two frequencies in low weather. But again, nothing new there. Especially that guy. I recognize his voice. He’s a rockstar. He can handle it if anyone can.
Now… BEFORE the incident with the truck. It’s important to understand the truck was rolling in response to an emergency.
There was already a United flight that had supposedly aborted a takeoff due to a fume event on the other side of the field.
Usually not something they roll CFR for, BUT if you listen to the earlier audio it’s pretty apparent the United flight crew was basically losing control of the cabin. The flight attendants were running that show.
The United pilots, then respond by (incorrectly) pressing the Controller for a gate -
That’s important to recognize the United crew was pressing the GROUND controller. Because it’s important to recognize that ground IS NOT in charge of gate assignments… so the United crew was pressing the wrong controller, which then put him (the controller) into a spot of trying to coordinate FOR THEM because apparently they don’t know how to do their jobs.
The controller. Went from task heavy to what we call “task saturated.”
Add that little fiasco into the truck moving slower than it should’ve been… poor radio discipline on the truck…
We’re starting to create a scenario, yeah?
Now finally the flight crew.
Could they have gone around?
Should they have gone around?
Now we’re getting into Monday night quarterbacking.
Yes to both… in hindsight.
The reality is. The weather was low. So maybe they couldn’t visually verify that the truck had crossed.
I will say, defacto; a go-around is always an option. Until It’s not. And it’s not once the reversers are out. So to be at 100kts ground speed… the reversers were out.
To see what they saw, you’d have to be in the plane with them or re-create it in a sim.
I will also say.. the truck. DEFINTELY SAW THE LIGHTS COMING DOWN THE RUNWAY.
So, as usual. Multiple things played into it.
…it’s never just one thing, right?
But…
There’s gonna be a lot of focus on the truck -
