President Trump's mugshot leaves little doubt, he is in the fight to the end. It is a fight about justice for us all.

@SenWarren Elon Musk has already paid the largest tax bill in American history: $11 Billion
And what did you and the government do with it?
Probably gave it to illegal aliens or Somali fraudsters.
As expected, the appeal to restore the Trump name to the Kennedy Center failed. https://t.co/6yAk05LRLR However, the Administration still has, in my opinion, a strong appeal to reverse the Court's cessation of the two-year renovations. https://t.co/kJhfTggzP2
The hardware store closes at 6PM.. It's 5:58 when a kid walks in. The kid can't be more than sixteen. Soaking wet and shaking from the rain...
"We're closing." Tom says.
"Please. I just need a lock. For a door."
Something in the kid's voice. Terror. Desperation.
"What kind of lock?"
"I don't know. Just one that keeps people out."
The kid's got a black eye. Fresh. The kind that's still swelling.
Tom doesn't ask. Just walks to aisle seven. Shows him the locks. The kid reaches for the cheapest one, $8.99.
"That one's garbage," Tom says, "Won't stop anyone determined."
He hands him a deadbolt. Heavy duty. $34.99.
The kid's face crumbles. "I only have twelve dollars."
They stand there. Store empty except for them.
Tom takes the deadbolt to the register. Rings it up. "Twelve dollars."
"But,"
"Sale price. Today only."
The kid knows there's no sale. Knows this old man is lying. Tries not to cry and fails.
Tom bags it. Adds a screwdriver. Free.
"You know how to install it?"
The kid shakes his head...
They drive in Tom's truck. Don't talk. The kid directs him to a rundown duplex on the east side.
Upstairs apartment. Door frame cracked. Old lock broken, hanging loose.
Tom installs the deadbolt. Takes him fifteen minutes. Tests it. Solid.
Hands the kid both keys.
"Someone tries to get in, you call 911. You hear me?"
The kid nods.
Tom's halfway to his truck when he hears it, "Why?"
He turns around. The kid's standing in the doorway, backlit, holding those keys like they're made of gold.
"Why did you help me?"
Tom thinks about his own son. Twenty years ago. Different city. Same desperate eyes. Didn't make it.
"Because you asked," Tom says simply.
He drives home. Doesn't tell his wife. Doesn't think much about it.
Three weeks pass.
A woman comes into the store. Tired eyes but smiling. "Are you Tom?"
"Yes, Ma'am."
"My son told me about you. The lock you sold him." She's crying now. "His father, my ex-husband, he's not a good man. That lock kept us safe until I could get the restraining order. Until we could breathe."
She hands Tom an envelope. "It's not much. But it's the thirty dollars we owed you, plus a little more."
Tom tries to refuse. She won't let him.
"You didn't just sell him a lock," she says. "You saw him. You saw us. When we were invisible."
After she leaves, Tom opens the envelope. Sixty dollars. And a note from the kid:
"Installed three more locks for neighbors who needed them. Taught myself how...
"Going to trade school next year. Maybe I'll work in a hardware store someday. Be someone like you. -Marcus"
Tom's manager notices him crying by the register.
"You okay?"
"Yeah," Tom says. "Just... yeah."
That night, Tom stayed two minutes past closing. Then five. Then ten.
In case someone walks in at 5:58PM. Soaking wet. Desperate. Needing more than just a lock.
Tom learned something.
The last customer of the day may be the most important one we ever serve.
Tristaun Darius Johnson posted a photo on social media of himself urinating on the grave of Austin Metcalf...
He's also a child abuser.
It's a crime to desecrate a grave..

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day.
400 of them are now worth over $100 million.
These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries.
Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000.
Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous."
The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before.
Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.
Karmelo Anthony's family raised around $625,000–$650,000 for "legal defense and used it mostly on their own expenses
AND NOW...
To appeal he has declared himself a "penniless, destitute, indigent person" who is "too poor to employ counsel."
These people are F*CKING VILE!!
We need to pass Reconciliation 3.0 right now and it must include the SAVE America Act.
We have elections being stolen right in front of our eyes.
This shouldn’t be difficult.
🚨 UPDATE 🚨
This terrorist's big mouth isn't so loud now, huh?
Zainab Hakim is one of eight University of Michigan students now under federal indictment for constructing a campaign of violence against U of M Board regents.
She was the goddamn ringleader.
Hakim led the pro-Hamas movement on campus that targeted and attacked university officials and Jewish students for over two years.
This genius jihadist also faces a charge of witness intimidation, which is a 20-year felony.
She's accused of threatening to murder an unnamed UM student in July 2024, in hopes of preventing the victim from informing a law enforcement about her domestic terrorism.
This is what $1.3 BILLION in federal funding gets you.
.@BillOReilly : “The E. Jean Carroll fraud should be prosecuted… It’s so outrageous that the woman testifies in a deposition under oath that nobody is helping her, no lawyer is helping her, no pro bono, and then we find out she got $7 million.” Spot on.
Electronic services at four major Iranian banks: Melli, Tejarat, Saderat, and Export Development Bank, have been disrupted since this morning, affecting mobile banking, online banking, ATMs, card payments, and other financial services, according to IRGC-affiliated media reports.
Reports indicate the outage may be the result of a cyberattack.
