In April 1943, Lieutenant (junior grade) John F. Kennedy assumed command of an 80-foot, 40-ton Elco motor torpedo boat (MTB) at Tulagi in the Solomons. 🆘

Late on the night of August 7, the boats met Kennedy at the rendezvous point, exchanging a prearranged signal of four shots. Kennedy's revolver was down to only three rounds, so he borrowed a rifle from Evans for the fourth. Standing up in the canoe to give the signal, Kennedy did not anticipate the rifle's recoil, which threw him off balance and dumped him in the water. A soaking wet and thoroughly exasperated Navy lieutenant climbed aboard PT 157.
The PT boats crossed Blackett Strait under Kennedy's direction and eased up to Olasana Island early in the morning of August 8. The exhausted men of PT 109 were all asleep. Kennedy began yelling for them, much to the chagrin of his rescuers, who were nervous about the proximity of the Japanese. But the rescue went forward without incident, and the men of PT 109 reached the US base at Rendova at 5:30 a.m. on August 8.
For his courage and leadership, Kennedy was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal, and injuries suffered during the incident also qualified him for a Purple Heart. Ensign Leonard Thom also received the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. But for John F. Kennedy, the consequences of the event were more far-reaching than simple decorations.

These crumbs are not meant to scare anyone but merely inform. Resistance will be dealt with swiftly. The core focus is removing entrenched and fortified bad actors within our federal govt (past and present) as well as others. Simply be diligent - phone numbers will be provided if you witness an uprising or other domestic violence (in addition to 911). Any military seen is for your protection as well as to demonstrate our resolve. Watch for confirmations tomorrow.

🚨 Hot Off The Press (WW3)

This is when I suspect that the market will crash once this crash pops off. So just be ready for potential inconveniences that most of you should get through without any issues. Israel is indeed in a very compromising position.

The OIC

The ICC

The OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) has issued a strong statement condemning the actions, escalating tensions in the region. The potential for broader conflict is increasing as neighboring countries weigh their options.

The ICC (International Criminal Court) is investigating war crimes, further complicating the geopolitical landscape and increasing pressure on international alliances.

The UN Security Council is holding emergency meetings to address the rapidly deteriorating situation, with world powers divided on the best course of action.

Financial markets are responding to the uncertainty, with investors seeking safe havens amid fears of global instability. Commodities like gold are seeing a surge in demand, while stock markets experience volatility. We are watching history unfold in front of us.

Hope everyone is ready. We are on our way.
