Ruth Reed, a substitute teacher working in New Jersey, loves helping people. So much so that she seeks out those down on their luck and gives them a few bucks.


No doubt that unsuspecting people are surprised by Reed's generosity, but this week it was Reed who received the big surprise. Standing in line at a New Jersey gas station/convenience store Wawa, Reed overheard a man in line turn to the woman with him and ask if she had any money. That's when Reed stepped in to pay what the man owed.

Reed asked the man what his name was, and when he answered, "Keith," she told him he looked like country singer Keith Urban. That when he replied he was Keith Urban.

At first Reed didn't believe he was the Keith Urban, but his bodyguard confirmed it was true. The two then took a photo outside that Reed posted on social media.

One of Reed's former students shared Reed's Facebook post on Twitter, and it went viral.

Trump Ripped After Griping About 'Sissy' New NFL Kickoff Rule In Unhinged Rant

President Donald Trump was criticized after he complained about the NFL's new "Dynamic Kickoff" rule that is designed to make playing football safer, calling it "sissy" football in a Monday morning post on Truth Social.

Under the previous rules, kickoffs began at the kicking team’s 35-yard line, with the goal of sending the ball as far as possible to pin the opposing offense deep in its own territory. The receiving team would try to advance the ball, which would often lead to high-speed collisions as players sprinted directly at each other.

Political Commentator Epically Fact-Checks Vance's Baseless Claims About Political Violence

In the wake of far-right activist Charlie Kirk's assassination, Vice President JD Vance has stepped up his attacks on leftists, this time by baselessly claiming that the far-left is more likely to commit political violence than the far-right.

Vance hosted a special episode of Kirk's podcast to attack what he referred to as “the lunatics in American politics" and said without any evidence that the suspect in Kirk's killing was motivated by far-left ideology.
