President Trump Had 1-Word Response For Danica Patrick Question
President Trump Had 1-Word Response For Danica Patrick Question originally appeared on The Spun. If you're not familiar with Danica Patrick's social media activity, she often voices her support for President Donald Trump. Leading up to the 2024 presidential election, Patrick took a handful of jabs at former Vice President Kamala Harris. She even made a passionate speech about Trump during a rally in Lititz, Pennsylvania. After Trump won the election in November, the former NASCAR driver posted this message on Instagram: "The work is not done until we can wear or fly an American flag, say we want to make America great again, and say I LOVE THIS COUNTRY….. and have that make us American, not Republican." Last weekend, Trump received a lot of criticism from the public for successfully bombing Iran. He wrote on Truth Social that a "full payload of BOMBS" were dropped on three nuclear sites. Patrick applauded that move from Trump. She said, "Thank you to all that keep America safe and strong." However, she still had a question for the 47th president of the United States. On Friday night, Patrick revealed that she spent time with Trump at a rally in Michigan. "I asked President Trump on the flight home from the last rally in Michigan... what is the most important quality of being in office was," Patrick wrote on Instagram. Trump had a one-word response to that question from Patrick: courage. While plenty of people have ripped Trump in the past, a former Bill Clinton National Security Council staffer applauded his decision to bomb Iran. He referred to it as a courageous action. "I am not a fan of many of Donald Trump's actions, but I will speak openly and honestly when he takes bold steps defending America's interests, as he did tonight," Jamie Metzl said. Suffice to say, courage is important to have when you're running a Trump Had 1-Word Response For Danica Patrick Question first appeared on The Spun on Jun 28, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Jun 28, 2025, where it first appeared.

From firearms to samurai swords, why fewer people carrying them through TSA at Harrisburg Int'l end up in handcuffs
HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) — The signs couldn't be any clearer: A red circle/slash over a gun and, for avoidance of doubt, the words, 'Do not bring your firearm through the checkpoint.' Still, whether on purpose or not, people try. Others — last month alone — have been caught at Harrisburg International Airport with a samurai sword and a batman-style batarang. Caught — but not arrested. Not those people, and not even — for example — the Lititz owner of a loaded handgun last year, one of four people caught at the airport with firearms in 2024 (up from two in 2023). Scott Miller, the airport's spokesman, confirmed an anecdotal observation by abc27 News that more than ever, people caught with weapons get the opportunity to either return the weapon to a parked car for safe keeping, put it in a checked bag or surrender it — but in all of those cases, not be led away in handcuffs. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checkpoint agents invariably detect the weapons 'If someone shows up with a firearm at a checkpoint, we contact the police who come to the checkpoint and take possession of the gun,' Lori Farbstein, a Philadelphia-based spokesperson for the agency, said in an email. In Harrisburg International's case, the local police are airport's own police force. (Other airports use state, county or municipal police departments.) 'Now the question is, is the gun registered? Is it for the legal owner? Do they have a concealed carry permit? Is everything legal and on the up and up?' Miller said, other than that the gun was in a carry-on bag. 'If it is, is there a warrant or anything like that? If none of that is found, and the gun owner is cooperative and they take it back to the vehicle and secure it, then there will be no charges.'

The only certain way to not be arrested for carrying a weapon through a TSA checkpoint is to not carry a weapon through a TSA checkpoint. Gary Mathews, an engineer beginning a business trip to Salt Lake City, said he wished people would be more careful about leaving even more mundane prohibited items out of their carry-on bags. 'People like us who follow the rules have to wait for TSA to go through the bags and get through the whole process of ensuring people are safe,' Mathews said. 'So it's quite annoying.'
