June 26, 1807
Lightning strikes a fortress used by Napoleon’s French army to stockpile gunpowder and ammunition in the tiny European country of Luxembourg-224 powder kegs explode, killing at least 32 people and injuring 120 others, in what may be the deadliest lightning strike in history
June 26, 1956
Congress approves U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Federal Highway Act, which allocates $30 billion for the construction of the interstate highway system, one of the most important public works projects in American history-Eisenhower was inspired to create the system after observing Germany’s autobahn network during World War II
June 26, 1963
U.S. President John F. Kennedy gives one of the most famous speeches of the Cold War in Berlin, a city divided by the Berlin Wall-to a crowd of 120,000 people, he describes how 2,000 years ago, the proudest boast was “civis romanus sum” (“I am a citizen of Rome”), and then he famously declares in the crowd’s native German language, “Ich bin ein Berliner” (“I am a citizen of Berlin”)
June 26, 1974
At a supermarket in Troy, Ohio, a pack of Wrigley’s Juicy Fruit chewing gum becomes the first grocery item scanned with a Universal Product Code (UPC), the result of years of scientific experimentation and years of industry cooperation-10 years later, 33% of grocery stores across the U.S. have barcode scanners, and now billions of UPC barcodes are scanned each day
June 26, 2020
The U.S. House of Representatives passes H.R. 51, a bill intended to make Washington, D.C., the 51st U.S. state-the bill is not advanced in the Senate and does not become law
Why It Matters: Each of these events offers a lesson in courage, resilience, and the power of human spirit. By understanding our past, we gain insight into the present and inspiration for the future.

    LBJ was one of the most racist presidents in modern history, he destroyed the black community, the black nuclear family, took the fathers out of the home and made them dependent on the government.

    Sure, try to revive hatred for something that happened over 60 years ago, that's a perfect way to move ahead. Your part of what is a large problem with leftist idiots trying to perpetuate racism instead of focusing on character like in Mr. king's dream.

    • @jasoncaldwell5627
      @jasoncaldwell5627 Před 18 hodinami

      Democrats like Lyndon Johnson that fought for justice for these three. Democrats like LBJ that passed the Civil Rights Act - while "conservatives" burned crosses and vowed to never vote Democrat again. Now, we have Donald Trump repeating Nazi propaganda about "Immigrants poisoning the blood of our nation". Ask yourself what side you're on.

    Kind of a hard photo to be honest. France invaded first and couldn't handle the Blitz. Germany won despite the numbers disadvantage. However, Hitler did go all winey baby when he lost France and even tried blowing up the Eiffel tower.

      Because he really didn't have his eyes set on conquering France, it was more a kind of had to. His plans were more east facing. Western Europe was more of a sideshow.
