I just checked in at the Atlanta airport and the kiosk wanted me to show a "passport or permanent residence card."

The airline rep who was helping me said "I don't know why it's doing this it's been doing it all morning."

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

Somebody in my office full of Southern People has brought fried chicken for their lunch, and honestly I would be less bitter if they just microwaved some tuna. Come on, man. That’s just mean.

Did you know David Gilmour once sold his £3 million London mansion and donated every penny to a homeless charity called Crisis? He said, "I don't need all this luxury while others are fighting for a roof."
No media catwalk, no rockstar egos-just pure generosity.
He quietly changed lives❤️

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Don’t be tempted to trust Bannon bc he doesn’t like Musk. It’s jealousy, not a change of heart.
All of us — no matter your religious identity or background — should be disgusted by the recent resurgence of Nazi symbolism and rhetoric in the United States.

As people of diverse faiths, we are united against antisemitism and hate in all forms.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"
