Nobody talks about how we're all paying $15 for sandwiches now and just pretending that's normal. Five years ago that same sandwich was $8. The price doubled and the only explanation we got was "supply chain issues" which apparently means "forever."

Hinojosa NAILED IT. This isn’t about left versus right. It’s about 99.9% of us versus 15 billionaire tech guys who think they own our government. THAT’S THE REAL FIGHT. 👏

An American legend has taken his final rest. John Kinsel Sr., one of the last original Navajo Code Talkers who used their language to outwit the Japanese in World War II, has died at 107. His passing closes a key chapter in the story of the men whose secret messages helped save countless lives in the Pacific. In 1942, the U.S. Marine Corps recruited Navajo men for a classified mission. Standard codes were being broken, but the complex, unwritten Navajo language—known to fewer than 30 non-Navajos—became the solution. Kinsel, born in Lukachukai, Arizona, was among those who stepped forward. He served with the 9th Marine Regiment in brutal battles including Guam, Bougainville, and Iwo Jima. Under constant fire, the Code Talkers sent fast, accurate radio messages using terms like “turtle” for “tank” and “chicken hawk” for “dive bomber”—a code the Japanese never cracked. The mission remained secret for decades. Kinsel returned home unable to speak of his role until the operation was declassified in 1968. He spent his final years in the log home he built himself and passed away peacefully in his sleep. With his death, we lose a living link to one of America’s most remarkable wartime contributions. As Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren said: “He fought for all of us to have the freedom we enjoy today.” Rest in peace, warrior .. ❤️Thank you for your interest!❤️

Today in 1994, 45-year-old George Foreman knocks out Michael Moorer to regain the world heavyweight title over 20 years after losing it to Muhammad Ali. My single most joyous moment as a sports fan. I jumped off the couch and knocked over my coffee table.

BREAKING: In a powerful moment, a Vietnam veteran is suing the Trump Administration for its effort to desecrate Arlington National Cemetery. Every American needs to see this.

Talarico: "Hate can't teach a child to read. Hate can't build a future. But what hate can't do, love can. Love can turn a student into a scholar. Love can turn a closet into a nursery ... we didn't win this race by alienating our neighbors."

Maybe Trump trying to make Canadians our enemies and the Russians our friends wasn’t the best plan.

Another outcome I love about tonight — billionaires who thought they could buy election outcomes are being repudiated by American voters.

Former U.S. ambassador to Canada: "We're going to have a new Congress. And as the former U.S. ambassador to Canada, I am calling on this new Congress to begin immediately a formal reconciliation process with Canada."

I love the way billionaires spend literally billions to back politicians who won't tax them, thereby proving how easily they could actually absorb being taxed instead of having to buy politicians.
