COMPASSION IN ACTION 💙

On April 1, 2026, Denver Police Officer Borrego, who is assigned to District 2 was patrolling near E. Colfax Avenue and N. Verbena Street when he noticed a mother in clear distress, crying with her child beside her. She explained that she had accidentally left her cell phone on a bus, leaving her without her main source of communication. Officer Borrego immediately stepped in. After tracking down the bus route, he located the phone at the King Soopers on E. 14th Avenue and N. Krameria Street. He retrieved it and returned it to the grateful mother and child, ensuring they could continue their day without further concern.

A small act of kindness can make a big difference, and Officer Borrego’s quick thinking and compassion did exactly that. 👏

President Donald Trump reflects on the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, during an interview with Gowdy on Gowdy America, saying he knew immediately that the world was never going to be the same.

The president also said New York City deserved more credit for how quickly the city was able to recover and rebuild after the devastating tragedy.

NEW: A St. Louis police officer was hospitalized with moderate to serious injuries Sunday after their SUV, with lights and siren on, was struck by another vehicle at the intersection of Chouteau and Jefferson Avenue. The officers were responding to a report of medics being held at gunpoint near South Grand and Magnolia Avenues. The other driver entered the intersection against stopped traffic. One officer was treated for minor injuries, and the other vehicle's occupants had non-life-threatening injuries. Please, praying for all involved🙏🏻

BREAKING: Two national sheriffs’ groups are urging the Supreme Court to overturn Cook County’s assault weapon ban, saying it leaves victims vulnerable when cops are slow to respond to violent situations.

"A violent crime...can occur in seconds."

The National Sheriffs’ Association and Western States Sheriffs’ Association filed a brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn Cook County’s ban on AR-15s, arguing that the weapons are essential for self-defense when police response times are insufficient. In the case Viramontes v. Cook County, which was consolidated with a challenge to Connecticut’s similar ban, the groups contend that AR-15s are commonly owned (estimated at 44 million rifles in circulation) and operate similarly to other semiautomatic rifles. They assert that the ban primarily affects law-abiding citizens rather than criminals and relies on prior Supreme Court decisions protecting widely used firearms. The Seventh Circuit had previously upheld the Cook County ordinance, which has prohibited such "assault weapons" since 1993.

Sheriff Chad Bianco says the real brokenness in California isn't just corrupt politicians, it's a corrupt Attorney General who isn't preventing corruption, crime, or constitutional rights violations.

That's exactly why he's backing me.
