🚨 OMG. President Trump CUTS OFF and WALKS OUT of a Kristen Welker interview
He looks her in the eyes and tells her SHE'S A LIAR, then storms off!
"The elections are like a 3rd world country. YOU'RE CROOKED...let's call it QUITS. I've HAD ENOUGH."
WELKER: Please, I traveled all the way to Wisconsin!
TRUMP: "I've sat in the RAIN with you for an HOUR! I've given you enough time. You ought to straighten out your press. You know what? A country can never be great with a dishonest press. Let's GO."
WELKER: *Whines*
BEST PRESIDENT EVER 🔥🔥🔥
This is Margaret Swan, a great-grandmother stabbed to death 20 TIMES in a random attack in the middle of the day on Atlanta’s public transit. Her murder was the second horrific attack on MARTA in a week.
I want ANSWERS from Atlanta. The number of assaults, robberies, and rapes on MARTA’s trains is MORE THAN THREE TIMES the national average.
MARTA has 15 DAYS from today to provide:
- Security spending
- Safety plans for riders and workers
- Detailed action strategy to prevent crime and fare evasion
Margaret’s family DESERVES ACCOUNTABILITY. No one should be forced to fear for their safety on public transit.
Let’s all pray one more time.
Oh Heavenly Father, place Your shield over President Trump and the entire Trump family. Stand before them as a wall of fire. Send Your angels to guard them in all their ways. Let no darkness touch them, let no evil plan succeed, and let every hidden enemy be exposed before they can do harm.
No weapon formed against him shall prosper.
Though he walks through the valley of the shadow of death, let him fear no evil, for You are with him. Be his refuge, his fortress, his strength, and his deliverer in every storm.
Lord, protect President Trump. Protect Ivanka. Protect his family. Protect the White House.
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” (John 3:16-19)

Back to the Feb incident involving the Beltline murder suspect: I think someone needs to ask MARTA PD why the bloody, unprovoked assault on a passenger mid-morning in a MARTA station was treated as a misdemeanor.
We’re told the city was “shaken,” schools locked down, “massive manhunt,” mayor wanted to “quell fears,” but story is buried on page 8. Feels like @ajc intentionally downplayed this so as not to stoke crime concerns. Mistake. People will remember this.
Six Strings and A Sermon- Eric Church Outdid Every Commencement Speaker In America this Weekend At UNC
Six guitar strings. Six pillars of a life.
Faith. Family. Spouse. Ambition. Community.
Beverly Hills, 1976. Henry Winkler walks into a clothing store. Needs a coat. Leaves with a life.
Stacey Weitzman is behind the counter that day — divorced, raising her young son Jed, simply doing her job. She smiles and asks if he needs help.
“You just did,” he thinks immediately.
They start talking. Ten minutes passes like ten seconds. Later, Henry would admit he didn’t want the conversation to end.
So he stayed.
The next day, he returned pretending he’d forgotten something. He pointed at jackets he clearly didn’t need while searching for another excuse to see her.
Stacey understood exactly what was happening.
At the time, Henry Winkler was already becoming one of the most recognizable faces in America. Happy Days had turned him into Fonzie, the leather-jacketed icon everyone adored.
But Henry wasn’t chasing attention.
He was chasing her.
And Stacey came with a little boy.
Some people might have called that baggage. Henry never did. From the beginning, he embraced both of them completely. Years later, Stacey reflected on it simply:
“He chose all of us on day one.”
In 1978, they married quietly in a small Manhattan ceremony without Hollywood spectacle or media attention. No grand performance. Just vows.
Then came daughter Zoe. Then son Max. Their house filled with noise, children, laundry, routines, and ordinary life.
That was exactly what Henry wanted.
“Fame is loud,” he later said. “Dinner with my kids is quiet. I picked quiet.”
Their marriage wasn’t built on dramatic gestures.
It was built on repetition.
Henry hid handwritten notes everywhere — inside books, purses, beside coffee cups. One note read: “You’re still the girl in the store. Now I just have 45 years of reasons why.”
Stacey saved every one in a shoebox.
At their thirtieth anniversary dinner, she read one aloud: “When I look at you, I see every day we’ve survived. And I’d survive them all again to get here.”
Nobody at the table could hold back tears.
Over the decades, they faced everything real families do — dyslexia struggles, illness, career highs and disappointments, children growing older, grandchildren arriving.
“We didn’t do perfect,” their daughter Zoe once said. “We did team.”
And every morning at 7 a.m., Henry still brings Stacey coffee.
Not out of routine.
Out of intention.
“It’s a proposal,” he says. “I’m asking her to marry me again today.”
No yachts.
No staged romance.
No Hollywood illusion.
Just two people continuing to choose each other long after the spotlight faded.
“People say we fell in love,” Henry once said. “No. We keep falling. On purpose. Every damn day.”
He walked into a store looking for a coat.
And nearly fifty years later, he still acts like he just found home.
Never in our history has one president had so many attempts on their life.
Will you join me in saying a prayer for President Trump?
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up President Donald Trump to Your merciful presence today.
We pray for Your guidance and wisdom to be upon him as he continues his journey of service and leadership.
Grant him strength and courage to uphold righteousness and justice in all his endeavors.
May Your peace encompass his heart, and may he be a beacon of hope and unity for our nation.
Bless him with discernment and clarity of vision in every decision he makes.
Surround him with Your protection and grace.
We ask for Your blessings upon his family and loved ones.
In Your holy name we pray,
Amen.
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.” (Psalm 23:1-3) #Alaska
Please pray with us for those in the path of historic wildfires in South Georgia. The Pineland and Highway 82 fires, which are the largest, have burned over 55,000 acres so far and are only about a third contained. More than 80 houses have been destroyed so far, and thousands haven’t been able to return home as firefighters continue to battle the flames. https://t.co/cwyaNL0Ioa
