White House Press Secretary Dana White would go so hard ๐ฅ
Flashback to when a reporter suggested he should try to control what UFC Fighters say:
โYou canโt control what people say. I don't f*cking tell any other human being what to say or think. Free speech. People can say whatever they want and they can believe whatever they wantโ

Greetings, connoisseurs of beauty! Today's Dave's Car ID Service appreciates the female form in its most radiant representation - the chrome hood ornament.
Nothing purient of course, DCIDS is a high class joint dedicated to tasteful aesthetics. And when it comes to high class hoodtop ladies we must start with Rolls-Royce and their iconic Spirit of Ecstasy, sculpted by Charles Sykes, who has graced every Rolls since 1911. His muse? Eleanor Velasco "Nellie" Thornton (2), who at the dawn of the 1900s was a secretary at the British motoring magazine The Car Illustrated.
In 1905 she and the magazine's editor John, 2nd Baron Montagu of Beaulieu, began a secret love affair. Kept secret as much for their difference in class as for his marriage. In 1909 Beaulieu desired a sly custom keepsake radiator mascot for his Rolls, and commissionsed Sykes to sculpt one using Nellie as his model. That initial custom mascot was not "The Spirit of Ecstasy," it was "The Whisper," portraying Nellie hush-hushing with finger to her lips (3). Sort of a subtle declaration of scandalous love for his mistress. Only 4 original castings of it were made.
At the time customized radiator mascots were all the rage for the British upper crust, and Rolls-Royce wanted to standardized them. RR Managing Director Claude Johnson admired Montagu's "Whisper," and in 1911 commissioned Sykes to sculpt another pose as the official RR mascot. Again Nellie was the model, and her graceful form in billowing windswept robes became the iconic Spirit of Ecstasy still used today (albeit as an electric retracting hideaway item to pass snuff with safety laws).
The earliest versions were silver plated, and after 1914 chrome. And there one variant pre and post WW2, used on 1934-39 and 1946-55, depicting her kneeling, but in 1956 they returned to the Sykes original.
Sadly, Nellie's life came to an end in 1915 in the Mediterranean at age 35. She and Montagu were aboard the steamship SS Persia, en route to India, when it was struck by a German U-boat torpedo. Montagu survived, but not her. Or did she? Honestly, in some respects, Nellie has achieved immortality.

What happened in America is what Islamists call โBallot-Box Jihad.โ Muslim Brotherhood mosques in Michigan and elsewhere urged people to vote for candidates because they were Muslim, not because of their policies, qualifications, or whether they were Democrats or Republicans. This is where democracy becomes dangerously vulnerable: when the religious authority of the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood is used to dictate political loyalty, the ballot box risks becoming an extension of the pulpit. Islamists decided who would represent you in Congress.
The long voting lines of Muslim women and men: what should have been a celebration of democratic freedom was instead a religious Islamist mobilization. Those voters were pressured with a cruel message: vote for Abdul El-Sayed or risk being branded a traitor to your faith.
When a vote becomes a religious obligation, democracy loses its freedom. When a mosque dictates political allegiance, conscience becomes a hostage.
America was built on freedom of religion, not freedom for Islamist jihadists to command the ballot box.
A democracy must protect the right to worship God and, equally, the right to vote without fearing those who claim to speak for Him.

๐บ๐ฆ๐ท๐บ Ukrainian soldier CUTS OFF own foot before historic DRONE RESCUE
Kostiantyn Vlasenko, 49, survived 491 days on the front line, including months alone beneath a bombed-out school.
A Russian drone strike killed his comrade and injured his left foot, which later rotted away. His right leg was badly injured in a fall, and he deteriorated so severely that he amputated his right foot.
โI put it on a brick and took a knife. Tears were flowing; I had to cut it.โ
Russian drones made evacuation nearly impossible. After 6 months of planning, Ukrainian forces delivered a harness and video instructions by drone.
On Oct. 4, a giant 6-rotor drone lifted him roughly 230 feet into the air and carried him 9 miles to safety. Commanders described it as the first known aerial drone rescue of a wounded soldier.
Drones are no longer just TAKING LIVES on the front lines; they're SAVING THEM, too.

President Trumpโs decision to attack Iran was a courageous act and we should thank our lucky stars. He was president and willing to act.
I think we shouldโve finished them off and that wouldโve solved the problem, but he knew the potential costs and did what he had to do anyway.

๐จ๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ท Know Iran's Secret Nuclear Sites? Washington Offers $20 Million for Tips
The U.S. State Department is offering up to $20 MILLION and possible relocation to anyone providing valuable intelligence on Iran's nuclear facilities, equipment, scientists or personnel.
Through its Rewards for Justice program, Washington is accepting confidential tips through secure channels, including Tor.
The announcement comes amid uncertainty over whether Trump will resume military strikes against Iran.
With nuclear negotiations unresolved, Washington is now putting a multimillion-dollar price tag on information from inside Iran's nuclear establishment.

Someone let @StephenM know I found his wallet.

President Trump nominated U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas Lee Rudofsky to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit.
This appellate court covers Arkansas, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota.
There is a very limited window to confirm Rudofsky--before Senate Democrats block him.
Arkansas' two Republican home-state senators--@JohnBoozman and @TomCottonAR--are blocking Rudofsky, as they wanted someone else.
(They have @JohnCornyn and @SenThomTillis doing their bidding for them.)
They need to change their minds--and fast--or Republicans will lose this key appellate court seat.
Cornyn and Tillis are leaving the Senate.
But this is an unforgivable sin for Boozman and Cotton.
It's bad enough already, but do read this . . .
Replying to @ProudUSNvet67 @SenMikeLee
UNANIMOUS CONSENT! They all agreed to the proforma dates and times beforehand. Even if they refused, someone would do it. That's why I say EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN SENATOR is responsible for losing the midterms.
