Dad Buys Car For His Daughter, Finds Note In Glove-box Inside The Vehicle

Published

Kevin Duke of Kentucky was overjoyed to be able to give his daughter her first automobile. He wanted to make sure he got the greatest car possible, so he ended up buying a nice old car. But he had no idea that it wasn’t just “a automobile.” It held a secret that tore at his heartstrings.

Kevin wanted to test the automobile himself because his daughter was only a few weeks away from earning her driver’s license, so he took it for a test drive and meticulously checked it inside and out. He also looked in the glove box, but it wasn’t until he felt a small rubber mat that he realized there was a note inside. “Important Info Inside,” it said, and it was addressed to the new owner…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Kevin posted about his strange event on Facebook to share it with his friends.

“Well, I was in it yesterday messing about and I opened this storage container on top of the dash (which I’ve already opened a half dozen times).” This time, I notice a rubber pad at the bottom of it and pull it out for whatever reason. I find this mail with this letter inside, much to my astonishment. I’m not going to lie, I cried a little.”

He even took a picture of the letter. Needless to say, he was moved to tears by it, and no one who read it was spared from crying.

The following is what it said:

“I simply wanted to let the person who receives this car know what a unique vehicle you’ve purchased. My mother owned this vehicle. She, along with my 6-year-old daughter and aunt, died in a house fire on February 25, 2015. My mother drove this car for the last time on the day she left us. My daughter and I went shopping and had our hair cut.”

The person who wrote the letter cherished that car, but she had no choice but to sell it.

“For me, this car holds a lot of particular memories.” My house and everything in it is gone, and all I had left to do was touch this car. There was a snafu with the paperwork, which resulted in the automobile not being paid off by insurance. It’s quite painful because I’ve lost my family, my home, and now, through no fault of my own, I’m losing this last link I have with my mother and child.”

That car bore testimony to the joy and great memories made by the previous owner and her family over their memorable journeys. It was a witness to their joys and to times that would never be repeated. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

“I’m not angry with you.” I hope you enjoy this vehicle as much as I do. I hope it lasts another 100 years. I’m hoping the backseat is crammed with kids, toys, and other other items. My family crammed a lot of love and other sticky stuff into this automobile. We went on road drives while blasting 80s and country music and rolling down the windows. I can’t tell you how many diapers I’ve changed in the backseat. I’m sure there’s a sucker stick or a crayon somewhere that belonged to my child. Perhaps a whole chicken nugget. HA!”

That car wasn’t the nicest, but the reason for its significance to the woman who sent the letter was.

“I’m not sure if you’ll notice, but there might be a dirty spot on the dashboard.” My kid and I would sit in the driveway and pretend to go on excursions, and she would always place her feet there. My daughter learnt to ride…and crash…her bike a few months before her death in the dent on the rear drivers side fender and the dent in the passenger side door.”

“I understand it’s just a car to you, but it’s so much more to me.” In this car, things happened. In this car, there was love, laughter, and adventure. So now that it’s yours, keep in mind that it’s more than simply a car. It’s only a recollection.

This car, with all of its peculiarities, is my family’s final piece. Treat it with respect. Make it a country tune. My daughter’s favorite song was Big Green Tractor, or maybe Lynyrd Skynyrd Freebird. I played that song at their funerals because it meant so much to us.”

While driving that car, Kevin’s girl will always have “someone” by her side.

“You’re in the company of angels.” My guardian angels. If you want to talk to them, I’m sure they’d be interested in seeing and hearing about any new adventures you have in this car. Sylvia is her name, by the way. When Dr. Hook’s Sylvia’s Mother aired on the radio the same day mom acquired this car, we all rode around and the name just stayed when my daughter stated that’s what we should call the car. So just don’t call her something else.”

The heartfelt letter concluded with a plea.

“Please try to reach me if you ever want to sell Sylvia.” I’ve recently paid for three funerals, so I can’t afford to buy it right now, but hopefully I’ll be in a better financial position later if you feel she’s no longer right for you. Be joyful, be blessed, and live and love as we did. “All the best to you and Sylvia!”

Racist Cops Handcuff Black Female General, Her Call to Pentagon Destroyed Their Careers –

Published

The handcuffs clicked shut with a sound like a gunshot in the quiet street.

“You’re resisting arrest,” the cop snarled, twisting the Black woman’s arm behind her back.

Bystanders gasped as she was forced onto the hood of the cruiser, her military-sharp posture never faltering.

Then, in a voice like steel, she said, “You have no idea who you just handcuffed. But in 20 minutes, these two officers would beg for their careers back.”

And in an hour, the Pentagon would make sure they never wore a badge again.

General Naomi Carter was used to command, not compliance.

A decorated war strategist, she had just returned from a classified overseas mission and was on her way to debrief at the Pentagon when she stopped for coffee…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

She had spent her life fighting battles—just not the kind where the enemy wore a blue uniform.

The cops had been watching her since she stepped out of her car.

“Suspicious vehicle,” one muttered, eyeing her luxury sedan.

When she questioned their unnecessary stop, they escalated.

“You fit a description.”

Then came the cuffs, the shove, the condescending smirk.

That’s when Naomi stopped being just a citizen.

“Let me make a call,” she demanded.

The taller cop laughed. “You ain’t calling nobody.”

But Naomi had memorized emergency protocols better than they’d memorized their own badges.

With her hands restrained, she recited a series of numbers to a horrified bystander. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

“Dial it now.”

The phone rang twice before a voice answered: “Pentagon secure line.”

The cops froze. Then came the words that turned their blood to ice.

“This is General Carter. Badge numbers 4,872 and 5,193 just detained me unlawfully. I need immediate confirmation of their authority.”

For the first time, doubt flickered in the officer’s eyes.

The dispatcher’s radio erupted with panic.

“All units, stand down. Stand down.”

Backup arrived, but not for them.

The chief’s voice cracked over the comms. “You just cuffed a Pentagon-level officer. God help you.”

Naomi stood straight as her cuffs were removed.

The cops stammered apologies, but she simply picked up the phone.

“Secretary, I want their records audited. Every stop. Every complaint.”

Then to the officers: “You targeted the wrong woman today.”

By sundown, the officers were suspended. By week’s end, charged.

And as Naomi walked into the Pentagon the next morning, the news played footage of their perp walk.

Proof that even generals in street clothes outrank prejudice.

One of death row’s oldest inmates gave scathing final words before execution by lethal injection –

Published

By

 

Oscar Franklin Smith, a 75-year-old man who had been on death row for decades, was executed in Tennessee by lethal injection. He was found guilty of murdering his wife, Judith Robirds Smith, and her two teenage sons, Chad and Jason Burnett, back in 1989.

But even as he was about to die, Oscar kept saying he didn’t do it. He claimed he was innocent, and he never changed his story in all the years he spent in prison. Just before the execution, he spoke out strongly, criticizing the justice system and the governor of Tennessee, Bill Lee.

He said the system is broken and doesn’t always get it right. He believed that not only was he innocent, but that there are other men like him still sitting in prison, waiting to die for crimes they didn’t commit. He said the governor is foolish if he doesn’t see that. Oscar’s last words included the phrase “I didn’t kill her,” which he reportedly said several times before he died. He was declared dead at 10:47 a.m…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

Oscar had been given a temporary delay in 2022, when the governor called off the execution at the last minute. But that decision was reversed later, and the execution went ahead. Even though he had lived over three decades after the crime while maintaining his innocence, the courts and the state stood by the original conviction. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

After Oscar’s death, the family of the victims spoke to reporters. Judith’s sister, Terri Osborne, said losing her sister and two nephews had left a permanent wound. She said the pain of that loss will always stay with their family. No matter how much time passes, it still hurts deeply.

Terri also used the moment to talk about the issue of domestic violence. She said the murders are a tragic reminder of what can happen in abusive relationships. She wanted people who are in danger at home to know that they are not alone. She understood how hard it is to leave someone who is abusive, but she hoped this tragedy would push others to find safety and support. She also said she hopes more help and resources can be made available to people who are living in fear or dealing with abuse.

Her brother, Mike Robirds, also spoke. He said that no one should have to live the way their sister did — in fear. And no family should have to go through the heartbreak that they have endured. Their words were full of sadness, but also a message of hope for others who might still be suffering in silence.

People in shock after hearing bizarre leaked audio from Trump’s new head of Social Security reacting to job offer –

Published

on

By

 

Frank Bisignano, a former executive from Wall Street, has just taken on a major role leading the Social Security Administration—a huge federal agency that handles benefits for over 70 million Americans. But it turns out he was just as surprised by the job offer as everyone else.

In a meeting with Social Security managers from across the country, held on May 21, Bisignano openly admitted that he hadn’t been looking for a new job and had no idea he was being considered for such a major government role. A recording of this meeting was leaked, and it’s left a lot of people both amused and concerned.

In the audio, Bisignano talks about how he got a phone call out of the blue about the Social Security job. He said he wasn’t job hunting at all, and once he heard about the position, he had to start Googling to figure out what exactly the commissioner of Social Security does. He even joked that he’s one of the best Googlers on the East Coast. At one point, he said something like, “What the heck is the commissioner of Social Security?” showing just how unexpected the appointment was for him…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Ironically, during that same meeting, he complained about people leaking information to the media—while the very meeting itself ended up getting leaked. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Despite the jokes and the lighthearted way he presented himself, many people online didn’t take it well. On social media, some users mocked him for appearing clueless about the job and accused the Trump administration of giving important positions to people who aren’t qualified. One person sarcastically said he must be relying on the “fake it till you make it” approach. Another commented that having actual experience seems to be a disqualifier when it comes to getting hired in the Trump team.

Others, however, defended Bisignano. Some argued that you don’t need a PhD or deep government experience to run the Social Security Administration. Instead, they pointed out that what the agency really needs is someone with real leadership experience—someone who knows how to run big organizations and get results. They said Bisignano fits that bill, having led billion-dollar companies and managed large teams.

All in all, Bisignano’s surprise and honesty about not knowing much about the job have drawn mixed reactions. While some people think it’s refreshing or even funny, others are worried that such an important agency is being led by someone who admits he had to Google what the job even is.
