After 53 years.. the New York Knicks are NBA champs.

Something I rarely say:

Congratulations New York!

Two amazing takeaways from the incredible run by the New York Knicks.

2016 NCAA Champions at NOVA.

2026 NBA Champions with the Knicks.

Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, & Josh Hart are the 1st teammate trio to win both an NCAA title (2016 Villanova) & an NBA title (2026 Knicks).

Rick Brunson (Jalen’s father) was a reserve guard on the 1999 Knicks roster. He appeared in nine playoff games that postseason, including one Finals game (no statistics recorded). The Knicks lost the 1999 Finals to the Spurs. The 2026 Finals rematch ended with the Knicks winning, closing a 27-year circle (2026 − 1999 = 27). Rick Brunson has been part of the Knicks organization (including coaching staff) during this run.

Jalen Brunson just avenged his father’s defeat by the San Antonio Spurs in the 1999 NBA Finals. 27 years.

The Iran conflict and crisis is far more consequential than markets admit and recent days proved it.

Sheesh, near-1,000-point swings have wiped out over $1.2 trillion from the stock market amid the crisis, with inflation stuck at 4.2%.

As Jed Ellerbroek warned, the status quo is a high-stakes gamble: either Trump brokers a deal opening the Strait of Hormuz, or oil prices surge fast. Ignoring the risk won’t help. It only gets worse unless changes are made.

We need deals, not drama. Diplomacy is the only off-ramp or we go to war.

Our leaders need urgency to hammer out an agreement now. The alternative of spiking oil, rising inflation, and crashing markets is unacceptable. Get it done. Again we pray for our President and this administration. But we also urge action.

Americans also have every reason to feel proud and encouraged by the swift, heroic rescue of the Apache crew that showed the unmatched courage, skill, and readiness of our military.

Our forces brought them home safely. Proof that America’s strength and resolve remain rock-solid when it matters most. The unmanned drone boat the Corsair that carried out the rescue further highlights our technological superiority and innovative edge. 🇺🇸🦅

On the morning of June 6, 1944, 23-year-old Staff Sergeant Arnold “Ray” Lambert stormed ashore with the first wave of the 1st Infantry Division on Omaha Beach. Amid the chaos of German bunkers raking the Colville Draw with deadly fire, Ray a well trained combat medic charged straight into danger. At a small patch of concrete now known as Ray’s Rock, he refused to seek cover and instead dragged wounded men to safety one after another, turning that eight-foot-wide obstacle into a fragile lifeline on a beach where few survived.

Wounded by a bullet in the arm and shrapnel in the leg, Ray never stopped. For hours he treated nearly twenty soldiers behind that rock, then waded back into the surf to pull another from the water only to be crushed when a landing craft dropped its ramp across his back, breaking it and leaving him face-down, drowning. Fellow soldiers hauled his unconscious body to safety and evacuated him off the beach. Already bearing two Silver Stars and three Purple Hearts from Sicily and North Africa, Ray’s war ended on D-Day. He awoke the next day in an English hospital, his wounded brother in the next bed.

Ray Lambert lived to 100, passing in 2021, but his quiet words still echo: “I did what I was called to do.” He embodied the unbreakable American grit that turned the tide on Omaha Beach and secured freedom for generations.

Veterans, your service is not forgotten continue to stand tall, share your stories, and keep the watch. The nation you defended still needs your courage, your leadership, and your example today. Honor Ray and all our brothers by living the call: never quit, never forget, and always answer when duty calls. 🇺🇸🦅

Data Center Moratoriums and Water Rights in Montana are so HOT right now.

People are waking up! 🇺🇸🦅

What are my top 5 concerns about Data Centers in Montana?

Well here you go:

1. Massive Strain on Energy Infrastructure and Provably Higher Costs for Residents.

2. Significant Water Consumption in a Resource-Constrained State.

3. Limited Local Economic Benefits vs. Outsized Costs and Risks (Privatize Profits, Socialize Costs).

4.Protecting our Citizens. Proponents of a moratorium on data centers in Montana have concerns about facilitating mass surveillance and major erosion of constitutional rights and privacy, as exemplified in the NSA spy focused Utah data center amplified by a pattern of extreme secrecy in project planning.

5. Lastly, One additional common citizen concern that resonates deeply in Montana is the irreversible damage to rural character, agricultural land, and quality of life.

The Brave may fall. But they never yielded. Memorial Day is more than the start of Summer, this is a day to Honor our Bravest Americans.

We remember our sons and daughters who gave their lives for our country and our freedoms. Their courage and selflessness secured the liberties we cherish today and in their sacred memory we must continue the fight for Freedom. Security and Prosperity.

Our deepest gratitude to our Gold Star Families. God bless those that made the ultimate sacrifice. We may never repay their sacritice, but we can strive to live in a way worthy of it. Honor. Remember. Encourage.

“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” - John 15:13

People are going to be destroyed.

From a concerned Combat Vet watching the numbers:

No large voting bloc in America wants real spending cuts or fiscal discipline. That message came through clear again tonight with the defeat of Tom Massie.

You will never get fiscal restraints from President Trump or this Congress. I am out on that battle. I said the same thing back during the OBBB fight opposing the “big spend” was a fool’s errand best left to the podcast crowd because there is no systemic change and any leader in Congress that says NO is going to be targeted like Massie.

Congress won’t do it, and President Trump won’t do it either. Look at Elon being run out of DC over DOGE.

The national debt and deficit is going to keep climbing. The trajectory is locked in because the biggest programs and the biggest voter groups all protect their share. That’s the math, plain and simple.

Conservatives and Liberty conservatives:

Time to stop pretending otherwise. Focus energies on what we can control: demand better efficiency and accountability in the dollars that do get spent in federal government, especially on entitlements and discretionary. Cut the waste, protect the mission and our Veterans, and get our own households and communities ready for higher taxes or inflation down the road. It isn’t going anywhere. It’s systemic in America.

That’s where the real work is now. Prepare and protect. The battle over the National Debt, Deficits and Spending is OVER. I am very discouraged with the direction of America and need to focus energies elsewhere. 🇺🇸🦅

We waged war against the powerful elite once again. Even my friends and family are mixed about this. God was with me but they may have more power in this battle today. I have faith but I NOW know that darkness is around the White House. There are whisperers, schemers, grifters and agents that have misled our great President.

President Trump was placed in a no-win scenario. If Massie wins, it’s a massive rebuke of the White House. If he loses, it’ll further expose the lengths they will go to protect the Epstein class. This is an Epstein revenge tour.

Ultimately there is a spiritual war for our children. Sometimes you have to rebuke those in power (and those we love) to restore balance and to protect the future. I dumped a lot of resources into this race because I see the dangers here. Those that know me know I am FOR the President and 3x Trump voter and day 1 Trump supporter. We need checks and balances stat. Our country is in trouble. Massie isn’t the prob.

The Truth is Massie gets 95-100% scores with conservative orgs I trust, he votes 91% of the time with the Republican Party and 80% with President Trump. Where he has diverted I have mostly agreed with his votes.

It took:

Deputy Chief of Staff,
Secretary of War,
Vice President,
President of the United States,
and $35 million (A total waste of resources)
Politics of personal destruction
S*x scandal lies

To try to unseat a very strong conservative in Thomas Massie in Kentucky.

For What? Think. 🇺🇸🦅

JD Vance is taking some bold risks. Coming out strong against Massie is not the play I would have advised for 2028.

Of course President Trump is on a revenge tour over Epstein but now JD and SecWar Pete Hegseth going hard against Massie? I cannot ever remember a SecDef campaigning during an active War. Ever.

JD Vance by opposing Massie may have screwed himself with libertarians forever. In my experience they don’t forgive and forget so easy and it’s one of the main reasons I love libertarians. They aren’t easy.

Hopefully Massie pulls out a win and we can all get back into camp together again. Massie has near 100% freedom scores from several orgs I trust and he has voted with President Trump nearly 80% of the time. In fact Trump used to always endorse Massie.

One of my hardest rules in politics is NEVER alienate Libertarians. You may need Freedom fighters in your foxhole in this life. I know many that died for this country. Legions. 🇺🇸🦅

Only Jesus. King of all Earth. Glacier is the region where I was born and is home. But heaven is HOME.

On our National Day of Prayer let us pray for Montana and the United States of America. I am thankful that we were founded as a Christian nation whose founders established a free country, where we can worship freely and our religious liberty is a fundamental cornerstone of the American way of life. 🇺🇸✝️
