The Siege of the Alamo began February 23, 1836, when General Santa Anna's forces surrounded the fortified mission in San Antonio, home to leaders like James Bowie and Davy Crockett. For 13 days, the outnumbered defenders held out under heavy fire until a pre-dawn assault on March 6 overwhelmed them, killing nearly all. Though a loss, their stand inspired the 'Remember the Alamo!' cry that led to Texas victory at San Jacinto. Today, the 190th anniversary draws reflections on the chapel's legacy, family visits, and planned reenactments through March 6.

On a crisp morning in 1836, about 200 Texian defenders inside the old mission faced down 1,500 Mexican troops demanding surrender. Lt. Col. William B. Travis fired back—with a cannon shot and his 'Victory or Death' letter.

A video of the eagle on the flag quickly spread, seen by many as symbolic payback, though locals noted the bird has perched there for months guarding her nest. The flag flew low due to a tragic mass shooting in B.C. on February 10 that killed at least eight. Skeptics joked about coincidences while fans embraced the rivalry fun.

President Trump toured a steel facility, likely Coosa Steel, where the owner explained how tariffs let his racks compete against $90 Chinese imports despite $150 U.S. costs, calling it a game changer after near layoffs. He then stopped at a Whataburger to highlight the new no-tax-on-tips policy, now law through 2028, allowing deductions up to $25,000 for tipped workers. The trip followed major downward job revisions for 2025, with Trump claiming his policies conquered inflation amid partisan clashes, including Democrats citing Georgia's farm bankruptcies and layoffs.

The Republican-controlled Arizona Senate approved Senate Bill 1010 on February 18, designating the 78-mile Loop 202 freeway as the 'Charlie Kirk Highway' in memory of Kirk, who was assassinated on September 10, 2025, while speaking at Utah Valley University. Sponsored by senators like Rick Petersen and Jake Hoffman, the bill passed on party lines and now awaits House approval; it requires signage from the Arizona Department of Transportation without changing other names. Lawmakers also advanced a specialty license plate memorializing Kirk, with proceeds partly funding a Turning Point USA-aligned nonprofit, amid a divided government where Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs' office offered no comment.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Nearly six months after conservative activist Charlie Kirk was killed by a sniper, Arizona Republicans moved to honor him by renaming a major Phoenix freeway after the Turning Point USA founder.
