BREAKING: In an amazing moment, Admiral William McRaven, who led the raid to take out Bin Laden, just slammed Trump and gave an inspiring vision for the nation's future. Every American needs to watch this.

It’s called the Bo French effect

On March 16, 1968, US troops were raping and massacring Vietnamese civilians including children and babies at My Lai.
Then an American helicopter pilot named Hugh Thompson Jr. saw what was happening — and decided he could not stand by.
Thompson was flying a reconnaissance mission in an OH-23 Raven with his two crewmen, Glenn Andreotta and Lawrence Colburn. Their job was to scout ahead of the ground troops and identify enemy positions.
But something was terribly wrong.
From the air, Thompson noticed bodies everywhere — women, children, infants and elderly people. There was virtually no return fire.
He marked wounded civilians with smoke so they could receive medical help.
But when he came back, he discovered that some of the people he had marked as wounded had been shot dead.
He watched a wounded Vietnamese woman lying on the ground. An American soldier approached her, prodded her with his foot — and shot her in the head.
Thompson was horrified.
He then saw a group of 12–15 Vietnamese women and children fleeing toward a bunker while American soldiers pursued them.
He landed his helicopter between the civilians and the soldiers.
Thompson confronted the Americans and ordered his crew to cover the civilians. He told his gunner, Lawrence Colburn, to train his M60 on the American troops and fire if they opened fire on the Vietnamese.
Think about that.
An American soldier had reached the point where he was willing to risk shooting fellow American soldiers to prevent them from committing more war crimes.
Thompson then helped get the civilians out of the bunker and called in other helicopters to evacuate them.
His crew helped rescue Vietnamese survivors and wounded children.
After returning to base, Thompson immediately reported what he had witnessed to his superiors.
Hugh and his men deserve to be remembered, not because they were American soldiers, but because they chose humanity when others had abandoned it.
While others were killing innocent people, these three Americans risked their lives to save them.
That is courage. That is humanity. This is Thompson Hugh Jr.

I firmly stand with law enforcement.
Who I do NOT stand with are trigger happy Proud Boys with zero training gunning down unarmed human beings on the streets of Texas with zero recourse.
1940’s Germany called. They want their Gestapo back.

BREAKING: BRAVO! The New York Times announces it will NOT publish or distribute ANY photos from the White House pool today in protest of Trump's assault on free speech.
This fight has spiraled totally out of control for Donnie...
“The New York Times will not publish or distribute any images taken as part of the White House still photography pool today, in conjunction with the other members of that pool and in a show of support for the news organizations being unfairly targeted by the president’s barring of journalists from the White House," New York Times spokesperson Charlie Stadtlander stated.
"We remain committed to covering the president’s travel to New York City today. Americans deserve a free and independent media covering their government without intimidation, as well as comprehensive coverage of newsworthy events," he added.
The Washington Post released a similar statement—
“The Washington Post will not publish any photographs of today’s presidential events — including Trump’s departure from the White House and his events at the United Nations in New York — until midnight Eastern Time, joining a collective effort with photographers in other newsrooms covering the White House in a show of support of the banned outlets," said Post spokesperson Olivia Petersen.
These new announcements come after major news outlets including CBS News, ABC News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News suspended press pool coverage of Trump over his decision last Friday to ban CNN, Politico, and MS NOW from the White House over their alleged "fake news" stories. That collective pushback resulted in a particularly embarrassing incident for Trump, because there was no audio for his big White House helipad ribbon cutting ceremony today.
With an even bigger week ahead as the United Nations convene in New York, Trump is going to be feeling the burn from his authoritarian power grab. He's drunk with his own power and in obvious cognitive decline, which is why he thought that he could shred the First Amendment without consequence. Thankfully, the media is fighting back — and winning bigly.
Please ❤️ and share to thank the Times and Post!

You deserve the facts about who Max Miller is.
The sheriff of one of Ohio’s largest counties says:
“Thirty-four years in law enforcement tells me: Max Miller does not belong in power.”

This would be an earthquake in Texas politics if true. The conventional wisdom after Rehmet won the special election in January was that the seat would be an autoflip back to Republicans in the fall.
Also, it implies Tarrant County as a whole could be voting for Democrats by double digits, which would have big implications for the statewide races.

Texas Railroad Commissioner Candidate Bo French LIVES THAT DOUBLE LIFE, has sugar in his tank, and parties with gay bad boys; indicative of today’s Republican Party.
Bo French is pictured in this photo with Florida Republican Rep Fabian Basabe (that velvet blazer though) at a New York perfume launch.
In 2021, while running for Miami Beach City Commission, Fabian Basabe told the Florida LGBTQ Democratic Caucus: “I am a Republican, and I am a gay candidate running for office in Miami Beach.” Multiple outlets (Page Six, New York Post, The Advocate, Miami New Times, LGBTQ Nation) have reported that he has identified as gay, that it was widely known in Miami/New York social circles.
He has also been the subject of multiple accusations from men involving sexual advances, groping, propositions for sex with men, and comments about being a “bottom.” In July 2026 a jury found him liable for sexually harassing two male staffers and awarded $450,000.
As Tarrant County GOP chair Bo French repeatedly used “gay,” “homo,” and similar terms as slurs on X—calling a Democratic ad “the gayest ad in history,” saying the men in it were “homos,” including “Gay” as one of the poll options for people who preferred Harris’s policies to Trump’s, and using the word as a one-word reply to posts by gay officials.
The MAN IN RED is Cody Franchetti. Cody is a musician, model, and writer who comes from an aristocratic family with ties to the Rothschild and Milliken textile dynasties.
I repeat THE ROTHSCHILDS!
Do your thing Bo, but don’t pretend to hate all that you really are and then attack opposing views that merely are showing you a mirror. No hate for gays, but PLENTY OF DISTAIN FOR DECEIVERS, MARRIAGE POLLUTERS, and RACISTS!
I knew Fabian Basabe from gay bars in NYC in the early 2000s and am rather shocked to learn he’s a ‘straight’ married Republican lawmaker in Florida who voted for the Don’t Say Gay bills. thedailybeast.com/florida-re…

Your dog carries your stress in its body for months. A 2019 study in Scientific Reports measured cortisol in the hair of 58 dogs and their owners over a full year and found that the two rose and fell together. When you are stressed, your dog is stressed. When you calm down, so does it.
The synchrony was not driven by walks, weather, or the dog's own life events. It was driven by the owner. Dogs whose owners scored higher on personality measures of anxiety showed higher cortisol year-round. The dog's body was tracking the owner's emotional state over months, not moments.
The bond between a human and a dog is not a one-way relationship where the human provides and the dog receives. The dog is absorbing the household's emotional weather and carrying it in its endocrine system. Your bad month is its bad month.
This is what 15,000 years of co-evolution looks like. The dog did not just learn to read your face. It learned to sync its chemistry to yours, and the hair on its back is keeping a record of how you have been feeling since the last time it was groomed.
The next time someone says "it's just a dog," the cortisol data says otherwise. The dog is a mirror with a heartbeat, and the reflection goes deeper than behaviour. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3117…

This is truly a great man. He has invested more in Ukraine than 185 countries combined.
Meet Howard Buffett, Warren Buffett’s middle son. He is 71 years old. He dropped out of college three times. He drinks Dr Pepper and looks for a McDonald’s wherever he travels.
Since the beginning of the war, his foundation has become the largest private donor to Ukraine: $1.4 billion.
Over four years, he has personally visited Ukraine 27 times.
In April 2022, he saw burned-out agricultural machinery and called the president of John Deere:
“How many combines are available in Europe?”
“Fifteen. All of them were supposed to go to Russia.”
“I’ll take them all.”
Then came all the available New Holland equipment in Europe. Altogether, more than 100 tractors and combines were provided to Ukrainian farmers.
He even tested demining equipment himself - on his own farm in Illinois, detonating explosives beneath rollers. When a Ukrainian deputy minister expressed doubts, Buffett told him:
“Stop counting my tractors. If necessary, I’ll blow up a thousand of them.”
Andriy Stavnitser initially asked him for $1 million for Superhumans. Buffett asked how much was needed to build the entire center.
“$14 million.”
“Okay. And what do you expect in return?”
“Nothing. Build it.”
Today, his support for Superhumans has reached $77 million, and the center has treated more than 1,700 patients.
But his largest area of spending is neither agricultural machinery nor prosthetics.
It is food: 642 million meals.
And that is only part of it:
* 344,000 windows replaced after Russian attacks;
* 9 bridges, 4 power plants, 2,500 generators, and 18 DNA laboratories;
* Much of Bucha rebuilt with his funding.
“I already have more friends in Ukraine than I do at home,” he says.
He celebrates birthdays in Ukraine, comes for Christmas, and even has a Ukrainian godson.
Friends, this is truly a great man - someone who understands that he cannot take all his money with him when he leaves this world.
I simply want to thank him and wish him well.
Whatever else one may say, this is real help from a person who had no personal obligation to Ukraine.
He simply chose to help.

The Netherlands has become the first country in the world to successfully eliminate stray dogs, ensuring that every dog has a home.
This remarkable achievement stems from a combination of strict animal welfare laws, large-scale spaying and neutering programs, and a strong culture of responsible pet ownership. The Dutch government has long supported widespread sterilization initiatives and enforces tough penalties for animal abuse and abandonment.
While an estimated 200 million stray dogs exist worldwide, the Netherlands stands out as a global leader. In Dutch cities, it is common to see dogs riding in bicycle baskets, relaxing under café tables, and even joining their owners on public transport, a reflection of how deeply integrated pets are into everyday life.
The country now serves as an inspiring model for animal welfare, demonstrating how coordinated policy, cultural awareness, and compassion can effectively solve a challenge that continues to affect many other nations.
