- Captain Haun was killed by Iranian IRGC on 25 June 1996 at the Khobar Tower bombing in Saudi Arabia. He is one of the approximate 1,000 people killed by the Iranians over last 47 years. Justice was overdue.
- We are blessed to have Canada as an ally & trading partner. Iโve spoken with local businesses, and talking down to our neighbor or making โ51st stateโ comments has not helped Nebraska or gained America one advantage. We should treat this relationship with the seriousness &
