He died. Thanks @PeteHegseth @SecWar for yet another pointless and tragic recruiting spectacle
A U.S. Army officer falls to the field at high speed during a fast rope demonstration gone wrong during the Navy vs UTSA pregame tonight.
The officer was attended to on the field and taken to the hospital on a stretcher. There has been no update on his condition but we pray that he was not seriously injured.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Air Force confirmed the service member, a USAF Airman, died from injuries after the rappelling demonstration. It was not a fast-rope or Army officer.

Just adding my 2 cents to this discourse because it involves some engineering that Hibernaculum deals with;
1) There are what are known as ''mach diamonds'' clearly visible which can only be produced by liquified gases ie rocketry. Not fans. Not compressed gas, or air.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Mach diamonds appear in supersonic exhaust from compressed air cold-gas thrusters, as used in the Tesla Roadster demo; they are not exclusive to rocketry or liquified gases. The vehicle uses an underbody fan suction system for surface adhesion alongside thrusters.

🚨 BREAKING:
Abdul El-Sayed: You don't want to talk about gas prices. You don't want to talk about groceries... You want to stir up all this culture war stuff.
Watters: Do you think men should be allowed to play women's sports?
Abdul El-Sayed: I'm running for the US Senate. This is crazy. I'm here trying to take on the healthcare crisis and Big Pharma, and you're asking me about who gets to play which sport.

Man not to lib out on the timeline but this is really really good framing
.@JamesTalarico: I want to get back to the kind of capitalism we had in the middle of the 20th century in this country.
I want competition, but it’s got to be fair competition.
We’ve got to take on these monopolies, this consolidation, because again it’s fundamentally anti-capitalist.
Right now, our tax system literally taxes work more than it taxes wealth.
I’m advocating for a return to original capitalist principles where we actually reward work instead of wealth—an economy that creates fewer trillionaires and more millionaires.

I will never understand why so many white evangelicals would prefer to vote for someone as corrupt as Ken Paxton instead of a guy like this.
TALARICO: When I left the hospital, I went to Walgreens to pick up my first 30 day supply of insulin—this new medicine that I now needed to live, and it cost me $684. I didn't have that kind of money, so I put it on a credit card. So many Texans with diabetes can't afford their insulin, can't afford the medicine that they need to live. And it's all because big pharma has a monopoly..

I thought Democrats opposed live executions on television.

See, they’re making gay jokes because they can’t find anything real to criticize. Talarico is just a decent person running against a comically corrupt asshole

Looking for a missing child in the dark and immediately mag dumping anything that approaches me while trespassing
A Georgia police officer shoots and kills a beloved 1-year-old miniature donkey named HeeHaw as the animal approaches officers searching a farm for a missing child.
Newly released bodycam footage shows the small donkey moving toward officers before one attempts to use a Taser and another opens fire. HeeHaw runs away before collapsing in the field.
The officer claims the donkey was charging at police, but his devastated owner insists HeeHaw was simply approaching people the way he always did.
The officer is on administrative leave as state investigators examine the shooting.
