National Police Week
363 names were added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial this year. 363 dads, mothers, brothers, sisters, beloved uncles and aunts...neighbors who won't there when you need them anymore.
No beers over the fence or waves at the mailbox.
Who can't be there in the dark when the kids are frightened anymore.
Or when a heartbroken parent or spouse just wants to hear their precious voices that one more time.
Just one more time.
Police Week 2026:

As we mark Police Week, the nation remembers and honors our fallen law enforcement officers from across the country this evening during the 38th Annual Candlelight Vigil in Washington, D.C.
Unfortunately 363 names of U.S. law enforcement officers, who have… pic.twitter.com/a3KBpvcEmS
... who have died in the line of duty, are added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial this year. 363 Heroes. Please remember them and the sacrifice they paid in the name of public safety and service.
Please remember them. The good guys, and not just with the guns.
The guys who talk you off the ledge.
This is National Police Week which honors law enforcement officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice and thanking those who currently serve. Watch this unbelievably heroic act by @NYPDnews saving a women threatening to jump from the 30th floor in Brooklyn last week.… pic.twitter.com/ft6pDjJKFB

Or take it to the edge to save you and yours, no matter the risk to themselves.

Selfless.
Determined.
A missing 16-year-old from Florida was rescued in Charlotte after cops pulled over a speeding car—only to find her with 37-year-old Joshua Magraff, who lied and called her his “cousin.” The vehicle was loaded with counterfeit cash, drugs, and paraphernalia. He’s now facing… pic.twitter.com/Ovue7TzqzH

Compassionate.
Are cops perfect? Of course not. And no one should expect them to be. But every single day, under the most difficult conditions, the police protect us from the bad guys.https://t.co/VaiopPk6am pic.twitter.com/9jfhisiOYj

Patient.
God bless the folks who saw those babies and called police. And the cops who were SO good with those little ones. https://t.co/kR01lHAFIt

Beloved and mourned.
So many good cops are willing to do whatever the situation calls for, even if it means they don't come home.
They want you to.

The Trump White House had a Back the Blue Xweet out to celebrate the week, and J.D. was doing events with officers, who seemed pretty tickled to be with him.
BACK THE BLUE.

Not one.

"When I was standing at that vigil last night and you saw half a dozen, several dozen members of Congress, it struck me I couldn't count a single Democrat that was there... It's a shame that you didn't have bipartisan support for something so important, like supporting our law enforcement officers." BRIAN
@kilmead: "REALLY???"
@ainsleyearhardt: "Wow."
The craven, despicable cowards suck.
That's all there is to it.
That's all there is to them.
Thank you, Blue.
Stay safe, and God bless you.
