(CNN) Fifteen years ago today, on September 11, 2001, members of the Air National Guard leapt into action -- scrambling F-16s, putting their lives at risk, and serving as the vanguard between our country and its enemies. This should come as no surprise. The first American militia, founded in 1636, consistently lives up to the motto "Always Ready, Always There."

(CNN) As you scrolled through your social media feeds Tuesday night searching for election results, something striking popped up (beyond Hillary Clinton losing Pennsylvania).
