Our WSO Rescued: So Much to Be Thankful For and Proud Of

Beege Welborn

This is what the country that will cross a frozen river on Christmas will do to rescue one of our precious own.

This is literally what Trump just told you. The US flew in, built a secret US base, landed 2 C130s ran 35 miles to a distant mountain, rescued a severely injured pilot from the mountain travelling 35 miles back by foot across open plain, while engaged in massive night time fire… https://t.co/Qk7G3nSmbo pic.twitter.com/W98pe3nFaE

How it's done.

I’m up in the middle of the night and am about to go back to sleep. But seeing the news of this pilot being rescued after one of the most daring rescue operations in history has me motivated beyond belief.

To the media and the haters who’ve been obsessed with palace intrigue…

...To the media and the haters who’ve been obsessed with palace intrigue stories. Trying to sow division and calling for the heads of our leaders.  I hope this news hurts. I hope it hurts a lot.

I have my finger on the pulse of the information machine these days. And what I’ve seen over the past 48 hours is the weaponization of said machine.

Bots, grifters, and partisan hacks all working in unison literally rooting for our failure. Rabid. Drooling. Damn near praying to satan for our own pilot to be killed or captured. 

Hyenas, the lot of them. All cheering against America.

While they’ve all been groaning like demons for the heads of our leaders and warriors, people like @PeteHegseth, @SeanParnellASW and others have just been busily…. doing the job to get our guy back.

Nothing I type here will matter at 0300. But when the world wakes up in a few hours, it’ll see the fruits of merit based leadership at echelon. All the way down the chain.

An Airman safely home after evading capture for over a day. An epic rescue that will be remembered for generations. Millions inspired by the shear power and conviction of the United States military. And millions more disappointed by it, because they were praying for our national embarrassment.

I’m not sorry you’re witnessing a competent war machine in action.

I’m not sorry that our leadership will never leave anyone behind.

I’m not sorry for any hurt feelings caused by this.

Because you were never on our team anyway.

God Bless America.🇺🇸
