These are the patriotic soldiers of Company E, the 141st regiment 34th Infantry division. It was the only one that would enlist MX American soldiers. This is outside of the El Paso Museum of History (I take my boys there too). They fought bravely and died for democracy and freedom. #MemorialDay

If you’re tired of watching Chuck Schumer fold while Trump steamrolls everything in his path—do something about it.

You knew I would

A tale of two movies:
Similar deal structures. Similar budgets.
One made $45M from 3300 screens, post pandemic, and won the weekend.
The other made $41M from 3600 screens pre-pandemic, and placed second.
And yet this is the coverage.
