I’m gay and I’m exhausted by the idea that everyone must affirm, celebrate, or participate in Pride. A free society means people can disagree. If players are expected to wear Pride-themed gear, they should be free to express their faith too. I’m not offended by God. Why is everyone else?

I have many more issues with Ilhan Omar being worth $30 million than Elon being worth a trillion.

.@BernieSanders , it is a time to celebrate. @elonmusk has created enormous value for society by building @SpaceX, driving down the cost of rocket launches and creating a global satellite communication network that has brought high speed, low-cost internet and communication access to hundreds of millions and eventually billions of people along with critical advantages for our military and our nation’s defense. SpaceX and its technologies will cause an acceleration in the growth of wages and wealth creation globally, including in some of the poorest communities in the U.S. and around the world. Access to low-cost, high speed communications everywhere will allow children around the world to be educated, families to build businesses, and life-saving medical knowledge and care to be available everywhere. SpaceX will materially bring down the cost of compute, advancing AI and humanity. Meanwhile, 4,000 SpaceX employees yesterday became millionaires, including hourly wage employees who you claim you are trying to help. The Elon Musks of the world drive growth, global GDP, and provide access to goods and services at lower cost that would otherwise not exist. Elon’s nominal trillionaire status is due to his ownership of SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, the Boring Company and his other initiatives that have brought new technologies that improve our everyday lives. Elon is not sitting on a trillion dollar pile of cash, jewelry and gold. He is using his controlling stakes in his companies to advance mankind. Elon’s companies don’t pay dividends. They reinvest all of their capital to accelerate innovation and value creation. Elon is working 24/7 for all of us. He deserves respect and appreciation, not smears. Bernie, your socialism would never allow a SpaceX to be built. Socialism has only proven to impoverish mankind and lead to death and destruction. We need to create the conditions for more SpaceXs to be built, not attack the great entrepreneurs who are helping to advance our country.

A wise man once said, if you want to hate America, watch the news. If you want to love America, drive across it. These European World Cup tourists are experiencing the REAL America for the first time: not New York City or LA, but middle America and all its hospitality. 🇺🇸

K-State now has two NCAA National Champions! Selva Prabhu wins the NCAA Championship in the men’s triple jump with a season’s best mark of 16.92 meters (55 feet, 6.25 inches) in Eugene, Oregon.

This has happened before but there was a very different reaction. A Big 12 starting QB bet on his own team, got caught, lost his eligibility — and there was no outcry from Iowa State or Cyclone fans. All parties accepted the one and only outcome.

Stopped listening after the President said TT is supporting a young man who made a mistake but also is pursuing a career! 😂 The abysmal media blitz continues.
A message to the Texas Tech community from our leadership.

This article was written by a 26 yr old college student by the name of Alyssa Ahlgren, who's in grad school for her MBA. What a GREAT perspecitve..👍🏽 My Generation Is Blind to the Prosperity Around Us! I'm sitting in a small coffee shop near Nokomis (Florida) trying to think of what to write about. I scroll through my newsfeed on my phone looking at the latest headlines of presidential candidates calling for policies to "fix" the so-called injustices of capitalism. I put my phone down and continue to look around. I see people talking freely, working on their MacBook's, ordering food they get in an instant, seeing cars go by outside, and it dawned on me. We live in the most privileged time in the most prosperous nation and we've become completely blind to it. Vehicles, food, technology, freedom to associate with whom we choose.These things are so ingrained in our American way of life we don't give them a second thought. We are so well off here in the United States that our poverty line begins 31 times above the global average. Thirty One Times!!! Virtually no one in the United States is considered poor by global standards. Yet, in a time where we can order a product off Amazon with one click and have it at our doorstep the next day, we are unappreciative, unsatisfied, and ungrateful. ?? Our unappreciation is evident as the popularity of socialist policies among my generation continues to grow. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently said to Newsweek talking about the millennial generation, "An entire generation, which is now becoming one of the largest electorates in America, came of age and never saw American prosperity." Never saw American prosperity! Let that sink in. When I first read that statement, I thought to myself, that was quite literally the most entitled and factually illiterate thing I've ever heard in my 26 years on this earth. Many young people agree with her, which is entirely misguided. My generation is being indoctrinated by a mainstream narrative to actually believe we have never seen prosperity. I know this first hand, I went to college, let's just say I didn't have the popular opinion, but I digress. Why then, with all of the overwhelming evidence around us, evidence that I can even see sitting at a coffee shop, do we not view this as prosperity? We have people who are dying to get into our country. People around the world destitute and truly impoverished. Yet, we have a young generation convinced they've never seen prosperity, and as a result, we elect some politicians who are dead set on taking steps towards abolishing capitalism. Why? The answer is this,?? my generation has only seen prosperity. We have no contrast. We didn't live in the great depression, or live through two world wars, the Korean War, The Vietnam War or we didn't see the rise and fall of socialism and communism. We don't know what it's like to live without the internet, without cars, without smartphones. We don't have a lack of prosperity problem. We have an entitlement problem, an ungratefulness problem, and it's spreading like a plague."

I'm not sure Texas Tech is really getting this. Had they just been that scrappy underdog school on the plains with a wacky oil billionaire alumnus who showered them with millions to out-recruit the "blue bloods," I and everybody else would be high-fiving them with glee. But this Sorsby thing is straight up taking a ginormous shit in the punchbowl. Nobody resents you winning, or paying your team well, it's that you are making excuses for someone who committed the ultimate sin in sports. And no, other teams aren't threatening to boycott you because they're "afraid of you," it's that by taking your giant shit in the punchbowl, you effectively voted yourself off the island.

Almost as if they wanted it to fail all along… (so they could break away or at least continue to execute formation of a de facto super-league) Big10 & SEC leaders have been invited to participate and contribute on this bill all along, yet when the bill comes out/to committee, act as if they’ve been purposely kept in the dark (not true) & targeted (true, but avoidable if they had bothered to participate)
Replying to @RossDellenger
ACC, Big 12 and G6 league presidents have held several calls with the senators and their staffs over the last couple weeks - calls that Big Ten and SEC executives were invited to (most have not attended). Story from earlier this week on the drama - yhoo.it/4xqw1W7

CASE UPDATE from @FBIKansasCity @FBISanDiego @FBISacramento @FBINewark @FBIRichmond: Three Arrested in Kansas and California, Charged with Plot to Support ISIS Bisaam Ghafoor, Elias Shamsaldeen, and Bereen Dzayee, three U.S. citizens, were arrested for conspiring to provide material support to terrorism after collectively providing over $2,000 to an individual they understood to be a member of ISIS. The three discussed violent attacks and tried to develop a cryptocurrency scheme to buy RPGs and drones to attack U.S. servicemembers.

thank you FBI and everyone else involved!
A 21-year-old Leawood man was among three people arrested Friday on charges they provided “material support” to ISIS. Included in a court filing this week was a screen shot of a financial app that prosecutors allege shows one of the three men sending money he thought would go to help ISIS.
