This WWII hero took on 200 German soldiers—and won.

He held the line alone for over an hour.
Wounded. Frozen. Outgunned.

He calmly called in artillery on his own position—and forced the enemy to retreat.

And yet today, most Americans have never heard of him.
His name was Audie Murphy.

And his story proves the power of an underestimated kid who refuses to back down.

🧵 THREAD

Audie Murphy grew up in rural Texas where he was one of 12 children.

He was a loner with a big temper and he dropped out of school in the fifth grade.

His father ultimately deserted the family, which led to Audie getting a job as a cotton picker as a child to help support the family.

Audie’s mother died when he was only 16 years old, and some of his siblings were sent to an orphanage.

Following the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, all Audie Murphy wanted was to join the U.S. military, but they all turned him down. He was underweight and underage.

So he did what any highly motivated teenager would do—he lied about his age (with help from his sister) and joined the U.S. Army at the age of 17.

Audie went on to become the most decorated World War II combat soldier.

This isn’t a war movie. It really happened.

A U.S. soldier was shot.
Stabbed.
Blown up.

Left for dead in a body bag.
Until he spit in the doctor’s face to prove he was alive.

His name was Roy Benavidez.

And it’s what happened before the body bag that makes him a legend.

Prepare yourself for one of the greatest soldier stories ever told.

🧵 THREAD

Roy Benavidez was a real-life action hero.

During one Vietnam War battle, Roy was shot, hit by shrapnel, and even stabbed by a bayonet—but that didn’t stop him from saving at least eight men.

Roy Benavidez didn’t have an easy life.

The son of a Mexican farmer and Yaqui mother, Roy lost both of his parents to tuberculosis—his dad passing away when Roy was only two, and his mom only five years later.

He was raised by family in the town of El Campo, Texas where he dropped out of school at 15, opting to work full-time instead so he could support his family.

🚨 CCP Targets Shen Yun, NYT Coverage Raises Questions

“Two years ago, we learned the CCP planned to escalate its war on us in America. Now, we’re facing legal weaponization, media smears, and threats to bomb, shoot, and rape our performers.”
— Shen Yun VP Ying Chen

🧵A Thread

Sabotage Campaign. Shen Yun Performing Arts is facing mounting challenges. Recent incidents include bomb threats, sabotage such as tire-slashing, and a wave of disinformation aimed at disrupting its global performances. Evidence points to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as the driving force behind these efforts. Meanwhile, the New York Times’ reporting on the group has drawn scrutiny for its alignment with Beijing’s narrative—here’s what’s happening to the U.S.-based arts group.

Global Tours. Shen Yun tours the world to top theaters to showcase China’s true cultural heritage through classical Chinese dance and music—traditions the CCP has tried to erase for decades. Its popularity has made it a target for attack on U.S. soil and around the world.

THREAD 🧵
Corruption is an “endemic feature” of China under communist rule due to the opaque political system in the party-state and the lack of checks and balances, according to a recent U.S. intelligence report.

The report, released on March 20 by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), states that bribery increases “an official’s legal earnings by four to six times.”

It also reported that Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader Xi Jinping and his family had amassed more than $1 billion in wealth as of 2012.

Since Xi assumed power in 2012, information on corruption among CCP officials has been more challenging to obtain, the report said, adding that Xi’s family is known to have held at least millions in financial investments as of last year.

Link to report: dni.gov/files/ODNI/doc…

The Intelligence Authorization Act of 2023 required the ODNI to produce an unclassified report for the general public on the wealth and corruption of senior CCP leaders. Marco Rubio, currently U.S. secretary of state, inserted that requirement into the bill when he was vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
