We lost a hero in Lebanon.

Master Sergeant (res.) Basil Sweid, a driver in the 75th Battalion, was 32 when he fell.

May his memory be a blessing🕯️

Anti-Israel.

Anti-America.

Why am I the only Democrat in the U.S. Senate that refuses to excuse this or defend any of those self-identified communists?

Meet Kali: the guardian stray dog who died battling a venomous cobra to protect over 30 kindergarten children in Odisha, India.

Villagers said Kali fought bravely, refusing to back down even as the snake struck her repeatedly.

Did the UN ever say his name?
Did the Red Cross ever say his name?
Did any world leader ever say his name?
Did any mainstream media ever say his name?
Did any human rights organizations ever say his name?

On one side:
A father, Mohammad Abbasi, sentenced to execution.
His daughter, 25 years in prison.
Their crime: demanding freedom.

On the other side:
A mother and her daughter, relatives of a Qassem Soleimani–linked IRGC commander, in America, enjoying the very freedoms the IRGC denies to millions of Iranians.

Those on death row have no internet. Their families are silenced, unable to speak to save their lives.

But these regime-linked relatives?
They sought asylum in America, traveled back to Iran multiple times, returned, and in America they use social media to promote the IRGC while calling America the “Great Satan.”

This is the Islamic Republic:
It executes ordinary people… and exports privilege to its own.

I support @SecRubio’s decision to revoke their green cards.
But there must be a clear red line:

Do not target Iranian students and legal immigrants who escaped the same criminal Islamic Republic and live by the law in the US.

🇺🇸Remembering Marine Lance Cpl. Timothy M. Bell Jr. 🇺🇸

He was only 22 when he was killed in Iraq on Aug. 3, 2005, after his amphibious assault vehicle was struck by an IED south of Hadithah.

A black belt in judo, Timothy had hoped to buy a motorcycle when he came home that September.

His father said, “My son was the last of the John Waynes, but tougher.”

Timothy had wanted to be a Marine since he was 6. His room was filled with Marine posters and memorabilia, and his family said protecting others—especially his three younger sisters—was part of why he chose to serve.

Before deploying for training, he told his stepmother just one thing:

“This is what I was born to do.”

May we never forget the service and sacrifice of Lance Cpl. Timothy M. Bell Jr. 🙏🇺🇸

Report From Iran ‼️🎯

Beyond words
Reposted from @action_for_iran
Tonight in Dehdasht, ordinary people
did something extraordinary.
By showing up in numbers and taking
over the roads, Iranians blocked the
only route for regime forces to reach
an American pilot after ejection.
With no weapons, no internet for
36 days, and everything at risk,
they still chose courage.
They are doing everything they can to
support what they see as their
only chance to break free from
a regime they cannot fight unarmed.
Proud is an understatement.

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

He died at 30 because he gave his only chance at life to a child he didn’t even know.

His name was Giuseppe Girolamo — a young drummer from Southern Italy who had been living his dream, playing music on the Costa Concordia.

On the night of January 13, 2012, the massive cruise ship was slicing through the calm Tyrrhenian Sea like a floating palace of lights. Glasses were clinking, music was playing, and thousands of passengers were celebrating.

Then came the sickening sound of metal tearing against rocks near Isola del Giglio.

In seconds, celebration turned to chaos. The lights went out. The deck began to tilt at a terrifying angle. Panic swept through the ship as the order to abandon ship was finally given.

People pushed and shouted, desperate to reach the lifeboats.

Giuseppe had a designated spot on one of those boats. As a member of the crew, his place was reserved.

But as he reached the evacuation point, he saw a terrified mother, Antonella, holding her young daughter. The lifeboat was already full. There was no room left for them.

Without hesitation, Giuseppe stepped back.

He looked at the mother and child and calmly said, “Get in, please.”

He gave up his seat — his only guaranteed chance of survival — so they could live.

Giuseppe could not swim.

As the lifeboat pulled away from the listing hull, he stood alone on the tilting deck, watching them disappear into the darkness.

While the world later focused on the captain’s desertion and the chaos that followed, Giuseppe’s quiet act of courage became a beacon of light in one of the darkest maritime disasters of our time.

It took months for divers to recover his body from the wreckage of the Costa Concordia.

But his legacy was already sealed in the lives of the mother and daughter who made it home safely because of him.

In a night defined by fear and self-preservation, one young man chose humanity over survival.

Giuseppe Girolamo didn’t just play rhythm on that ship.

He became the heartbeat of what it truly means to be brave.

Rest in peace, Giuseppe. Your final song was the most powerful one of all.

Share this if you believe stories like this deserve to be remembered.

A Pakistani imam in Italy gave a sermon on national TV defending the right of Muslim men to marry 9-year-old girls.

The next day, PM Giorgia Meloni personally requested that he be deported.

He had lived in Italy for 9 years!

Do you agree with Giorgia’s decision?
