It is no courage which is honored by the crowd

One of the reasons I love the World Cup is we see national pride and global community actually coexist in beautiful ways. No one thinks it's weird or evil when the Scots celebrate their culture, or the Japanese sing their own song, or the Germans show their spirit, and suddenly Americans realize loving America is not a bad thing. Yet we all come together to party and celebrate a global event. Don't let the globalists lie to you. You can love your country and care about cross-cultural harmony. We all have notes to play and don't need to be mono-culture. Now let's party!! #worldcup

The ents are waking up

Imagine you pour your heart out in a work of love. Now imagine there are people, so full of hatred and poison, they attack your work, and attack you for wanting others to discover the beauty, inspiration, and healing found in it. But they only attack you, not others who share far less inspirational things. Then imagine people who claim to be your friend, routinely hang out with those who attack you publicly. It is not hard to grasp, if you'll be open to seeing it, why I came to understand there are groups who work to make people never listen to me, to undermine me, and why, many who claimed to be with me, were never with me. To attack a story about overcoming obstacles, dealing with parental abandonment, faith over fear, and hope over despair reveals what is in the heart of the attackers. I watch behaviors, not words. And anyone claiming "apes together strong" while spewing poison at me for writing a hope-filled, real-life-inspired work of uplifting fiction, well, they aren't actually here for togetherness, and have nothing of value to offer me or any of you. They're here for manipulation and control. So I walked a lonelier path, and I am far happier for it. Join me if you dare to stand up to the crowd PS - I'm very proud of Strong Like Wildflowers, and hope some of you will give it a chance. It has a very high rating on Amazon, and I do not think it will disappoint. :-) Love to all the real ones, justice to all the liars.

"We take the stars from heaven, the red from our mother country, separating it by white stripes, thus showing that we have separated from her, and the white stripes shall go down to posterity, representing our liberty." —George Washington

“The flag was still there.” Long before it flew at ballgames and front porches across America, the flag flying over Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine became a symbol of survival during the War of 1812. After enduring hours of British bombardment, the fort’s enormous flag remained standing at sunrise, inspiring “The Star-Spangled Banner.” This Flag Day, we honor the history, sacrifice, and stories behind the stars and stripes. 🇺🇸 Photo of the Great Garrison Flag by NPS

If a group’s answer for everything is to teach what to hate and who to take money from, but never offers solutions to build anything, I don’t bother listening to that group. Destruction, envy, and hatred can’t take us where we need to go. Reject these

Man - Jalen Brunson Class act. Congrats

If I wanted to gain control over a nation’s sentiment and systems, I would make sure you believed loving your country is gross nationalism, I would ensure you believe that those who believe in equal treatment under the law are fascists, and I would make sure that you see normal people as extremists Really really think about that

/You can just do things/ Now add to that /You can just love your country/ It really is ok

And speaking of the FIFA #WorldCup 2026, the exponential growth of football sport in the U.S. is already generating dividends for the host. The broadcast of USA x Paraguay broke the ALL TIME Record viewership for the U.S. Men’s National Team with 16M viewers in the U.S. alone across #Fox, #Tubi & #FoxOne, more than doubling their previous 7.8M record reached during the U.S. x Wales game at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
