Česká reprezentace, která během základní skupiny pobývá v texaském městě Fort Worth, přijala pozvání městské samosprávy k návštěvě místní čtvrti Stockyards. 🇺🇸 Český tým navštívil také tradiční rodeo. Čtvrť Stockyards hrdě odkazuje na místní tradici kovbojství a Divokého západu. Právě zde se v roce 1918 uskutečnilo první halové rodeo na světě. Děkujeme za pozvání! 🐂🫶

Graham Platner encouraged a 15-year-old girl to commit suicide. That's who Democrats are rallying behind.

These guys want to separate children from their parents for no fault of the children.
End child detention. Shut down Dilley!

Blue bags up. Japan 2, Netherlands 2 — an absolute thriller in Arlington. And then the real show started. The Japanese end pulls out thousands of bright blue bags. First they wave them like flags, bouncing and chanting until the whole section is one giant wall of blue. Then — same bags, new mission. They fan out across the stands and scoop up every bottle, wrapper and cup till the seats look brand new. And who's right in the middle of it, grinning with a bag in his hand? Jameis Winston. Giants QB. Heisman winner. Out there cleaning up with the Samurai Blue like it's the best gig of his summer. No chore. No lecture. Just a party that cleans up after itself. Best fans on the planet. 🇯🇵💙

Elon Musk got rejected by Netscape. He walked into the lobby, was too shy to talk to anyone, and walked out. Never got the job. At his first company Zip2, the board demoted him. Twice. They refused to let him be CEO. He got fired from PayPal as CEO while flying to his own honeymoon. The board voted him out mid air. He almost died of malaria in 2000. Ten days in intensive care. Lost 45 pounds. A day from death. His first child died at 10 weeks old. His first rocket exploded. Falcon 1, flight one. Burned on the pad. His second rocket exploded. His third rocket exploded. The last of his money was nearly gone. Tesla nearly went bankrupt in 2008. The closest he ever came to a nervous breakdown. Both companies almost died on the same Christmas Eve. He was sued by investors. Mocked by the people who built cars before him. His childhood heroes, the astronauts who inspired him, testified against his company to Congress. The Cybertruck window shattered on live stage in front of the world. He overpaid for Twitter by his own admission and watched its value collapse. He was beaten unconscious as a child and thrown down a flight of stairs. He has said he goes to sleep alone and it kills him. He failed in public, over and over, for thirty years. He is the richest man in the history of the world. The difference was never the absence of failure. It was the refusal to stop after it.

Alex Soros is interesting because he’s a billionaire heir who dedicates his life to making cities less safe. He’s like a Reverse Batman.

Our 250th Birthday is right around the corner, share this and also POST ur OWN stories!! Let's get this party started!!🥳🫶😻 Francis Scott Key was just a regular lawyer and part-time poet in 1814. He wasn’t even trying to write a national anthem… he was trying to get a friend out of a British prison ship, but what he witnessed that night changed everything!! Picture this, it’s the War of 1812 and the British have already burned Washington D.C. to the ground. Now they’re hammering Fort McHenry all night long with rockets and bombs. Key’s stuck on a ship, watching through the darkness, wondering if the American flag is still flying… or if we just lost everything. Then came the dawn… 🙏
A family from New Zealand (of all places) hearing the real story behind the Star-Spangled Banner for the first time has me in tears even they felt the weight of that unimaginable battle….and they don’t even live here! I’m dropping the video in a few. I just wanted to say hello and have a great Saturday.🫶🏻⭐️🇺🇸⭐️ 🤗👀

Elon is worth a trillion because he sells things people want. Few if any /need/ what he sells but they buy them by choice. Things people /need/ are highly regulated and that’s usually the source of their scarcity.

This is a common rhetorical trick. Suggest that there’s proof of what he’s saying in some course somewhere and then switch topics from economics to philosophy, which is unprovable.
If you are to ask this lot of people who aced Economics 101 in school the answer would be ‘no one gets poorer’ due to the fact that wealth does not sit on a pie. The truth of the matter is that the world is far more complicated than Economics 101. Something you learn in Economics 102 if you stick around for long enough… On a worldwide scale over time the wealth gap continues to increase. It doesn’t matter that a few people became millionaires because of Elon becoming a trillionaire. Do we want to have a society that puts this much wealth into a few or one that tries to accommodate basic human needs for all. If you have one $1 you are significantly closer in wealth to Jeff Bezos than you are to Elon musk… That should say it all.

Every dollar Elon Musk has made is traceable. Every product sold, every service rendered, every government contract awarded, every share of stock bought or sold. It’s all on the record. You, on the other hand, haven’t built a company, invented a product, or created anything people willingly pay for. You’ve spent the last 14 years collecting a $174,000 Senate salary. Yet somehow you managed to buy a luxury D.C. condo, a $4 million Victorian mansion in Cambridge, and saw your net worth balloon by 150% to $12 million. Everyone knows where Musk’s money came from. The same can’t be said for yours.
Elon Musk just became the world's first trillionaire. The typical American household would have to work more than 11 MILLION years to make Elon Musk's level of wealth. We need a wealth tax.

On June 13, 1777, a 19-year-old French teenager landed on a beach in South Carolina, uninvited, to fight in someone else's war. He would become one of the most important men in American history. The Marquis de Lafayette was one of the richest young aristocrats in France. He had a beautiful wife, a fortune, and zero reason to risk any of it. But he believed in the American cause so fiercely that when the French king forbade him from going, Lafayette bought his own ship and sailed anyway. He literally went AWOL from a life of luxury to bleed for a country that didn't exist yet. Congress was annoyed at first. Another foreign officer looking for a paycheck? Then Lafayette offered to serve for free and pay his own way. That got their attention. He met Washington and the two formed one of the great father-son bonds in American history. Washington had no biological children. Lafayette named his only son George Washington Lafayette. He took a bullet in the leg at Brandywine and kept rallying the retreat. He was instrumental at Yorktown, the battle that won the war. He went home a hero on two continents. A foreign teenager believed in America before America did. 249 years ago today.

Elon responded to Warren calling him a “freeloader" in 2021: “I'm actually paying the most tax that any individual in history has ever paid this year. Ever." "And she doesn't pay taxes basically at all. Her salary is paid for by the taxpayer, like me. If you could die by irony, she would be dead."
Jun 12
2021. Elizabeth Warren calls Elon Musk a freeloader and falsely claims that he pays no taxes. A week later it was revealed that Elon would be paying over $11 billion in taxes for the year. Meanwhile Warren continues to contribute nothing to society.

The African immigrant on the left has founded seven companies, directly and indirectly created 800,000 good paying jobs, created thousands of new American millionaires, developed reusable orbital rockets and brain chips that are giving independence to paraplegics, saved free speech, and can’t stop talking about how much he loves America. The African immigrant on the right married her brother to commit immigration fraud, facilitated the theft of money intended to feed hungry kids, has used government to enrich herself, praises terrorists, and can’t stop talking about how much she hates America. Leftists want the African immigrant on the left punished with punitive taxes and deported, but will try to run over law enforcement and get shot in the face in support of the African immigrant on the right.

The US govt spends $7 trillion every year and they don’t solve shit.
A trillion dollars could solve virtually every problem. Any problem at all. But instead it’s all just going to Some Guy

So the $7 trillion of our money that that the government took and spent last year solved every problem seven times over? I think that would’ve made the news.
