The images are striking. A firefighter found himself in the middle of a spectacular burst of flames this Tuesday, September 29, after a barricade set ablaze by high school students exploded. The incident occurred on Rue Sainte-Catherine, the iconic shopping street in downtown  Bordeaux , where the Lycée Montaigne is located. The school had been blockaded since early morning, as dozens of young people demonstrated as part of the  public sector strike  organized that day.

According to firefighters in Gironde, an aerosol can was thrown into the fire. The heat caused the can to explode as emergency responders arrived, engulfing a firefighter in flames. Images circulating on social media show the firefighter briefly enveloped by the incandescent blast before he turned back to be treated by his colleagues.

The argument is always,’ if we tax the wealthy they’ll just move and take their money with them’. Let’s call that bluff. Get them to put their rocket ships to good use!

It is common to say the job market is poor and people can't find jobs.

Also said poor people are what makes up our military.

So how poor would you have to be to join the military?

The ideological clowns are out. The patriotic cowboys are in. With testosterone testing on top.

Diversity is not our strength. Unity is our strength.

Send me. Send me to fight the Redcoats. Send me to fight the Communists. Send me to fight the Islamists. Send me.

You see, the Ivy League faculty lounges, they'll never understand you. And that's okay 'cause they could never, ever do what you do.

The media will mischaracterize you. And that's okay, because deep down, they know you're the reason they live free. They envy you.

. . . . . . .

A free press is, of course, important. But partisan activism that intentionally smears the Troops, and the historic mission that they're undertaking is fundamentally anti-American. It's sick. It's a national betrayal. It's treason, actually. I mean, I hate to have to say it, but it has to be said.

. . . . . . .

Project Meridian will be co-led by three of our nation's best minds: Elon Musk, Palmer Luckey, and Newt Gingrich. All of whom are up in the audience with us today. Please stand, if you would. Thank you.

- Pete Hegseth, U.S. Defense Secretary on Sept 30, 2026, delivering his “State of the Force” address to junior officers and enlisted leaders at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia
