Unbelievably blessed to work for @glennbeck and with so many amazing co-workers who put their lives on hold and are their way to Moore, Okla

Glenn Beck and his Mercury One charity quickly mobilized to collect supplies for tornado survivors in the devastated Moore, Oklahoma, area. As Twitchy reported on Monday, Beck tapped the power of Twitter to help locate trucks and drivers to deliver the supplies.

Within hours, Beck and his team were on the road in what he dubbed the “convoy of hope.”

Mark just age me a sad stat: in the mid west truck stops are the hub of human trafficking. Reminds me of the special we just did. Such evil.
