Breaking911 @Breaking911 - Video: VP Vance discusses meeting with Gold Star families prior to this evening's event in Iowa: "Every time that a person gives the ultimate sacrifice to the United States of America, we often read about it as a line on a newspaper or online, but there's a father, there's a mother, and there's a grandma, and aunts and uncles, and a whole crew of people who love them... We have to make this country worthy of that sacrifice."

Breaking911 @Breaking911 - TRUMP: Based on the request of Pakistan and other Countries, the tremendous Military Success that we have had during the Campaign against the Country of Iran and, additionally, the fact that Great Progress has been made toward a Complete and Final Agreement with Representatives of Iran, we have mutually agreed that, while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect, Project Freedom (The Movement of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz) will be paused for a short period of time to see whether or not the Agreement can be finalized and signed.

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC - Under President Biden, the FCC revoked an $885 million award that Starlink won to provide high-speed Internet to millions of Americans.
Back then, the agency claimed that it was revoking the award because it was unlikely that Starlink could provide 100/20 Mbps service to 40% of locations by year end 2025.
I dissented at the time, explaining that the FCC's decision could not be squared with any objective application of law, facts, or policy. The data clearly showed that Starlink was on track.
Now, new Ookla data shows that well over that percentage of Speedtest user on Starlink did meet the 100/20 service level by year end 2025.
The Biden era decision to revoke the award only slowed down efforts to bridge the digital divide and raised costs for doing so.

Brendan Carr @BrendanCarrFCC - The FCC is expanding our crackdown on illegal robocalls.
We just voted on a proposal that would require enhanced vetting before any provider can onboard new callers.
These enhaced “Know-Your-Customer” regulations are part of a broader FCC effort to combat illegal calls.

Buzz Patterson @BuzzPatterson - Just an update after realDonaldTrump reposted this tweet yesterday praising our troops in search and rescue.
After some initial push back from unit leadership, the unit has now been bombarded with patch requests! The response has been overwhelming!
The leadership stood down! The troops won!
Let's go, America!

Our baddass search and rescue guys in the Air Force!
They're getting the new HH-60W rescue platform. The last bird that came in has the tail number 4547 so they call it the Trump bird! Classic, boys! Check out the patches!

Cassie Clark @dogwoodblooms - Fun Fact: Randy Travis was born and raised in Marshville, North Carolina.
He was one of the pioneers of the neotradtional country music movement, inspiring other artists to return to their country roots following the country-pop crossovers from the late-1970s.
And today is his 67th birthday. 🥂
