Retired Sailor Draws on Life Experiences Hunting Somalian Pirates and Creating Nationwide Sign Business to Inspire Others to "Seek Excellence"
CHARLESTON, S.C. - Jan. 20, 2022 - PRLog -- Keynote Speaker Justin Myers recently announced a new speaking presentation that he is taking nationwide. Drawing from his experience in the military and as a successful businessman, this presentation focuses on the need to "master your craft" as you start to create powerful life achievement.
Justin started off as an exceptional student in the Taekwondo Junior Olympics and then the Dixie Youth World Series. As he grew older, he realized his calling to serve his country and joined the US Navy as a Gunner's Mate. In 2010, he made Navy history by directly capturing Somalian pirates leading to their conviction. His efforts while serving in a dangerous and constantly shifting environment were recognized by the Navy with numerous commendations. After military service, Justin started a sign company that quickly grew to nationwide fame. He branched out, going state to state and became a sought after keynote speaker.
"In life, you must always set out to master your craft. It's not enough to show up, you need to be a dynamic leader in all aspects." – Justin Myers, US Navy Gunner's Mate (ret.)

Former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris predicted Wednesday that the Democrats will win both the House of Representatives and Senate in November’s midterm elections, while using a Seoul appearance to deliver a pointed critique of U.S. President Donald Trump’s handling of the South Korea-U.S. alliance and his overtures toward North Korea. Speaking at the 2026 Asan Memorial Lecture, Harris said the electoral map is shifting in Democrats’ favor. “We are facing a lot of obstacles, but the Democrats are going to win. I believe certainly the House and ... each day presents a new reason to think that of winning the Senate as well,” she said, noting that the number of competitive House seats that could flip from Republican to Democrat had grown from 40 to 46 in recent days. When asked about a potential 2028 presidential run, she sidestepped the question. “(The year) 2028, from my perspective, doesn’t matter if we don’t win 2026,” she said. The remarks came as Trump faces declining approval ratings following the outbreak of the U.S.-Iran war in late February, with congressional

"Recently, we sent two North Korean prisoners of war to the Republic of Korea," he said during his U.N. General Assembly speech in New York, referring to the official name of South Korea.

He said the two sides had agreed to keep the transfer a secret because it is a "highly sensitive matter with significant implications for diplomacy, national security and the situation on the Korean Peninsula. Yet Dmytro Lytvyn, communications adviser to Zelenskyy, in a statement on Facebook denied any such agreement existed. In a Sept. 27 statement, Sung Ki-hong, South Korea's senior presidential secretary for public communication, criticized the Ukrainian government's handling of the issu
