It was a fantastic time speaking with the staff and students to celebrate America 250th at Archē Classical Academy in Carlisle, PA.
I was proud to share the rich history of those who paved the way for the freedoms we enjoy today—many of whom were guided by biblical teachings and a deep reliance on God. Their faith, courage, and leadership helped shape the foundation of our nation.
Engaging with such thoughtful and enthusiastic students made the experience even more meaningful.
Thank you for the warm welcome and for your commitment to learning, faith, and leadership.
It was a fantastic day at the capitol today! I had the privilege of being escorted by two adorable beagles along with receiving the Pennsylvania Humane Leadership Award for my bi-partisan work on the Beagle Bill. What a huge honor!
Check out my interview on RSBN!
On Rudy Giuliani:
“He symbolizes so much…a voice of reason and a voice of courage”
“America’s Mayor”
Here is another incredible student from the Franklin County Career and Technology Center sharing her story.
Okli wasn’t sure what path she wanted to take at first, but she quickly discovered something she is truly passionate about. Stories like hers are a powerful reminder of how career and technical education helps students find direction, build confidence, and pursue meaningful careers.
Keep up the great work, Okli—your journey is inspiring!
Today we celebrate Poland Constitution Day, honoring the adoption of the Constitution of May 3, 1791—the first modern constitution in Europe and the second in the world.
This historic document stood as a bold step toward liberty, self-governance, and national strength, inspiring generations who fought to preserve Poland’s independence and identity.
On this day, we recognize Poland’s rich history, resilient spirit, and enduring commitment to freedom.
May 2, 2011 - U.S. Special Operations Forces killed Osama bin Laden during a raid on his secret compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The raid marked the culmination of a decade-long manhunt for the elusive leader of the al-Qaeda terrorist organization based in the Middle East. Bin Laden had ordered the coordinated aerial attacks of September 11th, 2001, in which four American passenger jets were hijacked then crashed, killing nearly 3,000 persons. Two jets had struck and subsequently collapsed the 110-story Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York, while another struck the Pentagon building in Washington, D.C. A fourth jet also headed toward Washington had crashed into a field in Pennsylvania as passengers attempted to overpower the hijackers on board
I wanted to highlight Cody from yesterday’s roundtable at the Franklin County Career and Technology Center.
His story is a powerful reminder of why technical schools that offer skilled trades are so important and vital to our communities. Programs like these give students the opportunity to build real-world skills, find their path, and create successful futures.
Thank you, Cody, for sharing your inspiring journey.
