You have probably seen the flags at half-staff around the Commonwealth. Every death in the line of duty is incredibly sad and tragic, and we should mourn and honor the fallen.
In this case, we should also be very angry. Pennsylvania State Trooper Michael Pahira should be alive today. DHS has confirmed the truck driver charged with killing him is an illegal alien who received a CDL from Massachusetts.
Governments and government officials who ignore or actively subvert federal immigration laws should be held accountable. They put us all in danger.
I have repeatedly heard, like we did the last our last Lancaster County Prison Board meeting, statements from individuals saying things like “have sympathy for those impacted by 287G agreements.” (Law enforcement agreements with ICE.)
How about we have sympathy for the law-abiding citizens impacted by those who ignore out laws?
Ironically, and cruelly, the PA State Police itself is prevented from working with ICE.
Speaking at an event to celebrate the launch of his memoir, Governor Shapiro said:
“We do not do ICE’s work for them here in Pennsylvania... Our State Police [don’t] ask for people’s status, and we do not share any of that information with the federal government.”
Simple question, do we refuse to work with the FBI if there is a bank robbery or terrorist incident? Do we refuse to work with any other federal law enforcement when needed?
Of course not.
So why is it ok to prevent law enforcement from ensuring our immigrations laws (which were passed by Republicans & Democrats together in Congress) are enforced?
No one should be willing to put politics above government's first duty to enforce the law and protect the safety of our citizens.
It gets WORSE
Glenn DiTomaso, the MA teacher who posted "8647" on his Facebook, also posted "FreeJamesComey" on his TikTok page,
He then said he wants to "shove liberal policy down the f*cking throats of every Republican in this country."
This person is responsible for your children's education.
When someone shows you who they are, believe them.
Josh Shapiro is no moderate. His views and actions have steadily moved him into the arms of the far-left, radical Democratic Party.
What is the newest far-left position he is taking? Packing the Supreme Court with liberal Justices to sway the highest court in the land for the next generation.
Like usual, Shapiro is putting politics before the will of Pennsylvanians.
Because Shady Josh Shapiro only cares about one thing: Himself.

When can we expect Candace Owens to testify on behalf of Tyler Robinson’s defense during the trial?
I’m told she’s the foremost expert on what REALLY happened and the only person who truly knows what went down. She’s got all the RECEIPTS, as she constantly reminds everyone. Given her expertise, the defense would be crazy not to call her.
Unless of course she’s a cluster B nutjob who just makes crap up and who would be a disaster on the witness stand. But that would be crazy if she had spent months just making crap up out of bitter resentment of the man who eclipsed her and wanted nothing to do with her and out of hatred of the woman he chose to spend his life with.
Anyhow, when can we expect her to be called to the witness stand by the defense? She should be champing at the bit to expose the REAL killer(s) under oath.
With great sadness, we received information about the passing of Dr. Eva V. Ebin, a Hungarian-Jewish Auschwitz Survivor.
Born on 31 October 1926, in Budapest, Dr. Eva V. Ebin, née Eva Szegel, grew up in Munkács, a Jewish community where only about 15 percent survived the Holocaust.
Eva was deported from Munkács to Auschwitz in May 1944 at age 17. Her mother and much of her extended family were murdered upon arrival. In November 1944, she was transferred from Auschwitz to Lenzing, a subcamp of Mauthausen in Austria, where she was liberated in early May 1945.
After the war, she raced to fulfill her childhood dream of becoming a doctor. She completed medical school in Vienna, immigrated to the United States, married, and became Dr. Eva V. Ebin, a board-certified pediatrician and psychiatrist in New York.
She died on July 6, 2026, at 99 years old, and is remembered by three of her four children, 22 grandchildren, 58 great-grandchildren, and friends for her elegance, discipline, high standards, and love.
ON THIS DAY in 2020, at 9:52 AM, Monday morning, we lost the greatest man I've ever known. Charles Edward Daniels was called home on a July morning and turned the world upside down for my Mom and me, While we soldier on, there's never a day that he isn't missed, by us or his millions of fans. I have dedicated my life's work to carrying on his legacy and introducing him and his music to a whole new generation of fans. Dad only changed addresses that day and I know we'll see each other again. Love you, Dad. - CD Jr.

A BIG THANK YOU 🇺🇸
(apologies for the very long post)
Tonight we head home after what has been the trip of a lifetime for me and Mrs T.
When we landed in Chicago four weeks ago we had an itinerary, an RV booking and some World Cup tickets. As I sit here in the same airport waiting for our flight home (and for England v Mexico to begin) I realise what we didn’t plan for was how much we’d fall in love with America.
We’ve driven over 3,000 miles across 12 incredible states, cruised down Route 66, encountered tornadoes and heatwaves, camped under the stars, wandered through world-class cities, explored small towns we’d never heard of before, eaten some of the best barbecue, Cajun food, deep dish, cheesesteaks and burgers we’ve ever had, sampled fantastic local beers, celebrated the 4th of July in Philadelphia, spotted license plates from 41 states and watched 5 unforgettable World Cup matches alongside fans from all over the world.
But what has made this trip truly special hasn’t been the places.
It’s been the people.
To everyone who stopped to chat, welcomed us, recommended a restaurant, suggested a hidden gem, answered one of my many questions on here, shared advice, wished us safe travels, or simply took an interest in our journey… THANK YOU 🫶.
Like Keith from Louisiana, who I chatted with whilst filling up with gas at Buc-ee’s in Leeds, AL. Keith owns a couple of farms and took the time to educate me on the plans for huge data centers in his home state and also the origins of the Eisenhower interstate system. Thank you Keith.
Or the lady from South Carolina who we chatted to whilst sititng on the bleachers at the Field of Dreams. She was also on a road trip with her family and whose husband had briefly left that trip to fly to LA to watch the USMNT’s opening game.
And so many more encounters like these along the way.
The warmth, humour and generosity we’ve experienced everywhere we’ve gone has been overwhelming. I’ve learnt that many Americans feel their country has a negative reputation elsewhere but for us that couldn’t be further from the truth. Everywhere we have been there has been nothing but friendliness, good humour and love.
In my experience social media can often feel divided, but over the past few weeks our experience on here has reminded me just how brilliant it can be. I’ve loved the conversations, the recommendations, the laughs, and getting to share this adventure with so many people.
This World Cup trip has given us memories we’ll treasure forever, but it’s the people we’ve met, both in person and online, that we’ll remember most.
Thank you, America, for your hospitality, your kindness, and for making us feel so welcome. We leave with incredible memories, phones full of photos, suitcases that are heavier than when we arrived, and already a growing list of places we want to come back and visit.
This won’t be goodbye.
Just… see you next time.
🇺🇸🤍
(and I’m forever sorry for mistaking biscuits and gravy for scones and mushrooms)
Life update: I am currently a full-time caregiver for my parents and my sister. Balancing their daily health, care, and household expenses is a massive responsibility, making traditional full-time work incredibly tough to maintain right now plus I have three kids that I support on my own no child support just me.
If you enjoy my posts or want to support my caregiving journey, I set up a donation page to help cover our essential bills, groceries, and medical needs.Any help means the world to my family.

They both survived Hamas captivity as hostages in Gaza.
Tonight, they married each other.
We will always celebrate life and love.

United Stated Navy Petty Officer First Class (SEAL) Joshua Thomas Harris died on August 30, 2008 while conducting combat operations in Bagram, Afghanistan. Joshua was 36 years old and from Lexington, North Carolina. Remember Joshua. Warrior. American Hero.🇺🇸🎖️
They left home as boys 8 decades ago to go out and save the world. Last night they sat at the WWII Memorial together and celebrated their country's 250th. Still heroic.
🇺🇸 On this IndependenceDay, while America celebrates freedom, one of our own is fighting for his personal independence — the freedom to walk again.
Covington County, Mississippi Deputy Rodney was shot in the line of duty on June 8th. The bullet went through his back left shoulder, lodged under his right clavicle, and struck his spinal cord at C3-C4.
From his hospital bed at the Shepherd Center in Atlanta, he looks straight into the camera and says it’s an incomplete tear, so he does believe he’ll walk again — although it will take a miracle.
He can’t feel from his chest down, but he’s already feeling sensation in his feet here and there. He’s choosing faith over fear, working as hard as he can every single day, and committing to daily updates to inspire others.
This young warrior (recently married) is trusting God through it all.
On the day we honor throwing off tyranny, let’s rally behind a hero throwing off paralysis.
Pray for his miracle. Share his story. Back the blue by lifting him up.
So were mine. I know their names and where they’re buried.
However…
Their descendant is free. He has an education. He worked a job making people safe. He bought a house. He has a family. He can read and write. He can walk around wherever he wants. He takes care of himself, his family, and his neighborhood.
My ancestors would be proud of me and the country I live in. They would be proud of the progress that was made. They would be proud of the freedoms we all have today.
You’re mad just for the sake of being mad. I’m happy and free because that’s what I am.
Do you know why I'm pissed off on this July 4th? Because I'm seeing the greatest country in the history of the world increasingly bathing in the infinity pool of parasitic suicidal empathy (as has occurred with much of the West). PLEASE activate your inner honey badger and defend American freedom. Do not take American Exceptionalism for granted. Fight! Fight! Fight!
🚨#BREAKING: A 28-year-old confirms he has spent the last 10 YEARS of his life interviewing World War II combat veterans to keep their stories alive...
...in fact, for the last 10 years, he has interviewed World War 2 veterans EVERY SINGLE DAY
He started as a teenager, ditching school to ride his BIKE to the local retirement home, walking up to the front desk and asking to, "meet some World War II heroes."
His name is Rishi Sharma.
He's crossed all 50 states and half the world.
He's slept in his car and lived on gas-station food to afford it.
He asks these men for hours of their memories, and then he hands the entire recording to their families...
...FOR FREE
So that 200 years from now, a great-great-grandchild will know not just their hero's name, but how he laughed, how he cried, and what he sacrificed.
Rishi has no military family, his parents immigrated here from India.
He does it out of pure gratitude.
In his words:
"My parents were given the opportunity to immigrate and raise a family because of veterans like these. It's a debt of love I'll spend my entire life trying to repay..."
As one 100-year-old Marine who stormed Iwo Jima told him, remembering the flag going up:
"The hair on my arms still stands up when I think about how beautiful it was."
THAT is America.
250 years of ordinary people doing extraordinary things...
God bless our veterans. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Believing these absolutely idiotic conspiracy theories peddled by people who make tons of money off of taking people’s attention away from the lethal violence of the left is an IQ test many are failing. Be smarter. I am embarrassed and disgusted at the idiocy on display and how it harms Kirk’s legacy.
