@MargoinWNC Why don't they have random road checks that move around the counties? From Avery, definitely people moving hard drugs around, from Tennessee and from the South. Need more drug enforcement officers. Maybe with the new budget, they can do this!
Robin Williams’ emotional tribute to the American Flag leaves an entire stadium speechless — then in tears.
Is there a single Hollywood star who would give this performance today?
Total Patriot.
RIP Legend 🇺🇸
@MargoinWNC I passed this today on I-40, somewhere between Greensboro and Winston-Salem. Weird, it's from New Mexico, I guess. Wonder why it's here and probably coming from Raleigh unless cutting down from DC. Wish I had a clearer pic of license plate.
@Mets Well, pretty much the year is about done with who we have to play next. With a lockout next year, be awhile until we could watch a solid team. Looking forward to the trade deadline.
June 10: Preventing terrorism during the 2026 FIFA World Cup
For the FBI and its partners, preventing terrorist attacks is job #1 during the upcoming 2026 @FIFAWorldCup
Extremists have used major global sporting events in the past to do harm and spread their twisted ideologies. We are totally determined to head off any potential incidents and ensure the safety of players, fans, and all Americans and visitors during the tournament.
With 78 matches planned in 11 U.S. cities across 39 days, we are working nonstop to meet the challenge in concert with partner agencies such as @DHSgov and law enforcement at every level. This FBI is bringing to bear the full range of our counterterrorism expertise, crisis management, and other specialized resources honed over many decades and countless investigations.
Our approximately 200 multi-agency Joint Terrorism Task Forces across the nation and our 63 legal attaché offices overseas are fully engaged and assisting the government-wide security effort. Our bomb technicians will respond to calls about items such as suspicious packages, and our divers will search hulls for devices such as explosives and other hazards. Our experts are outfitting and staffing event operations centers, intelligence operations centers, and mobile command posts designed to stay on top of threats. We also have analysts performing thousands of background checks and examining and distributing numerous intelligence reports.
Be safe, stay alert, and report any suspicious activity you may see at https://t.co/m55w5cqC7Y or 1-800-CALL-FBI.
🚨 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!"
🇺🇸🇺🇸👏🏻
Hey Chicago Bears Fans,
Your blood is about to boil reading this:
I just did some research. The state of Illinois has spent over $2.5 BILLION on free benefits for illegals last year.
At the same time Illinois Governor @JBPritzker was telling the Bears there’s “no money” for tax relief on a new stadium.
Let that sink in.
For $2.5 billion the state of Illinois could have PAID for a new stadium for the Chicago Bears.
Instead, they spent it paying for lavish benefits for aliens, while running a $3 billion deficit and losing a franchise they've had for over 100 years.
This is what Democrat priorities look like. They hate you and will destroy your state for power.
This is insane. The House needs to take up my bill which will eliminate the H-1B program entirely. Thank you @kayleighmcenany for bringing attention to this issue.
Pass the EXILE Act!
