He was 32 years old, on a business trip, with a pregnant wife and two little boys waiting for him at home.
On September 11, 2001, Todd Beamer boarded United Flight 93, headed from Newark to San Francisco. He was supposed to come home to his family. Instead, he became part of a group of ordinary Americans who made an extraordinary decision.
After hijackers took control of the plane, Todd reached a telephone operator on the ground. He told her what was happening, asked her to pray with him, and learned that other planes had already struck the World Trade Center.
The passengers understood that their plane was likely being used as another weapon. They had a choice: remain in their seats and hope for the best, or fight back.
They chose to fight.
Todd and the other passengers and crew members organized an effort to retake the cockpit. At the end of his call, the operator heard him say:
“Are you guys ready? Okay. Let’s roll.”
Minutes later, Flight 93 crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. All 40 passengers and crew members were killed, but the hijackers never reached their intended target.
Todd Beamer never made it home. Neither did the other 39 innocent people aboard that plane. But their courage helped prevent another attack on American soil.
They were not soldiers. They were people going to work, visiting family, and living ordinary lives.
And when the moment came, they fought back.

🚨 JUST NOW: At 5:11AM Elon Musk calls out Fake News for saying AfD is far right. I absolutely agree
Wanting closed borders doesn’t make you far right
Loving your country doesn’t make you far right
Enough with this nonsense

🔥🚨 JUST IN — The judge in the Lindsay Clancy trial is set to question the lone holdout juror this morning.
The jury has already reported a deadlock more than once after she admitted to killing her three children and claimed to have had psychosis.
Court opens at 9:00 a.m. Eastern. The world watches.

I NEVER want to hear another politician say we need to raise taxes again, until you can prove to me that all the waste and fraud is gone.
In fact, we all deserve a huge refund!😉

MAXIMUM PRESSURE IS WORKING.
Iran’s own Parliament Speaker just admitted it: “We are hungry. We cannot survive.”
Even a powerful military can’t protect a regime when its people are starving and the economy is collapsing.
This is what happens when America stops the weak deals and starts enforcing real sanctions.

🚨ICE IS FINALLY SENDING THEM BACK.
The first flight of 161 Haitian migrants just left under the Trump administration after Biden’s Temporary Protected Status was ended.
That still leaves over 329,000 more.
This is what happens when you actually enforce the law instead of inventing new ways to keep people here permanently.

TRAGEDY IN ALASKA.
A charter plane carrying 8 people crashed at a remote military radar site in western Alaska, killing everyone on board.
The Cessna 441 took off from Anchorage headed for Cape Newenham Long Range Radar Site, one of those isolated outposts that help watch our skies as part of the NORAD network. Two pilots and six passengers (including Army Corps of Engineers personnel) never made it.
Recovery is underway. FAA and NTSB investigating. No survivors.
These were dedicated Americans doing hard, necessary work in one of the most unforgiving places on earth. Prayers for their families.

Walz: If Trump pardons Derek Chauvin, we will move him to a state prison to serve out 22.5 years in Minnesota

This is the same man who pardoned a child abuser btw
Walz granted a pardon to Tou Lue Vang, a 42-year-old Laotian national, was convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct for abusing a 10 year old girl to save him from deportation

Muslim Sharia Law condones adult men marrying 6-year-old girls. It is repulsive in every way, shape and form to western values, and it cannot be tolerated in America.

How twisted is the Leftist ideology to badmouth the Country/Culture they live in, and everyone wants to immigrate into, yet demand we accept all other people’s, (even those with open hostility towards us).

🚨WOW!!!
A man spent 19 YEARS in a German orphanage watching other kids get picked up by their parents…
…and every single day he prayed on a rosary to meet the father he'd never met.
Today, more than 50 years later, he put that same rosary around his DAD'S NECK.
His name is Joshua Schneeloch.
He was left at a Catholic convent in Germany as a baby and never adopted. Not once. Nineteen years of watching other children go home.
"When you see other kids be picked up by parents, you start realizing: Hey, why is nobody picking me up?"
So he prayed. Every day. Same prayer, over and over:
Please. One day, I want to meet my father.
A year ago his wife, Nicole, handed him an Ancestry DNA kit.
She knew it might break his heart. She gave it to him anyway, because she believed he belonged to somebody.
A genealogist found a couple of cousins. Then a phone call: I think I found your father.
His name is Arthur Colbert. U.S. military, stationed in Europe in the late 60s. He came home to America in 1970 and had NO IDEA he'd left a son behind.
"I did not know that I had left a baby over there in Germany."
Now here's where it gets crazy…
Joshua didn't say who he was. He called Arthur pretending it was an insurance call, just fishing for answers.
And Arthur opened the door himself: I hear an accent. Where are you from?
Germany.
Were you ever in Germany?
Yes.
When?
Were you ever in Kaiserslautern?
Yes.
And Joshua went completely silent. Because he had just heard his father's voice for the first time in his LIFE.
The DNA came back 99.99%.
They met days later.
"Walking towards my dad was probably the longest walk I've ever done in my life."
Both of them cried.
And then Joshua took the rosary... the one he'd prayed on as a little boy in that orphanage, asking God for this exact moment... and he put it around his father's neck.
He carried it for 50 years so he could hand it to him.
It gets better.
Last Saturday in Joshua walked into a room with more than SIXTY relatives waiting for him.
His uncle met him at the door: "You're home, baby! You're home."
Sixty family members. For a man who grew up with none.
Joshua never gave up. He never stopped praying.
And God answered every word of it.
GOD IS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!

John Fetterman has a problem… every time he opens his mouth, he sounds more reasonable than half his party. Then the Senate vote comes and he falls right back in line.
You can’t build a reputation on common sense and keep voting against the convictions you publicly claim to have. Eventually, you have to choose.
Quit sitting on the damn fence, John. If you know your party has lost its way, have the guts to leave it. You might be shocked how many Americans respect you for it.
