Watching fans from all over the world experience America has been one of the coolest parts of this World Cup. People are losing their minds over things most of us don’t even think about anymore: - Free chips and salsa. - Buc-ee’s. - Massive grocery stores. - Six-lane highways. - Air conditioning everywhere. - Endless refills. Meanwhile, the tournament is being played in world-class stadiums that were already built. No rushed construction. No billion-dollar vanity projects. It’s hard to ignore what visitors keep saying: the infrastructure is incredible, the people are welcoming, and the scale of everything is unlike anything they’ve seen before. Sometimes it takes seeing your country through someone else’s eyes to appreciate what we have. We take a lot of it for granted.

Turns out passing a simple law that says if you want to vote in the USA, you must be a citizen of the USA - is way too difficult for our Senators. But they do have some accomplishments: - Adding $2 Trillion a year to the national debt. - Giving away taxpayer money to other countries. - Using insider information to make themselves rich. - Endlessly talking about legislation without passing it.

Another masterpiece at UFC 250! This event will go down as the turning point in American history. Patriotism is back and it is here to stay 🇺🇸

It is criminal that our government enabled a bat virus to infect and spread between humans. Indeed, it is hard to imagine a bigger betrayal of our species. It is equally troubling that the mad scientists who did this then gaslit all the people of the world about it, including those who CORRECTLY interpreted the evidence. Then, of course, the very same monsters amped up fear of the Covid frankenvirus and steered the panicked public away from safe medicines, and toward an obviously dangerous gene-therapy which they falsely called a vaccine in order to lure us into acceptance. These are among the greatest crimes EVER committed against humanity. We now have persuasive evidence of everything I have said above. If we don't correct the record and hold the perpetrators to account, this pattern will happen again, and again, and again--shortening our life expectancy, and degrading our quality of life each time that it does. This is our Nuremberg moment. We can not simply move on from this ghastly chapter of history. We must finish it. @brownstoneinst

Elon Musk should buy Congress and fire everyone just like he did with Twitter.

America is the greatest country in the world and it’s not even close 🇺🇸

Let me explain why I think Freddy resonates. Lots of Europeans visit the USA as tourists. They visit New York City, or Washington DC, or Hollywood, or Las Vegas, and if they visit natural beauty too, they go to really crowded places like the Grand Canyon or Yellowstone. So while they see our cultural and natural icons, they are mostly in blue cities and they therefore also see the decline, the homeless, the drugs, the dirt and the rude, rude Americans. But Freddy is not doing that. Freddy is driving, and he’s doing it through the heartland, where people are kind and polite, the skies are wide open, and the bounty of Buc-ees and Bass Pro Shops are overwhelming. Freddy is not seeing fentanyl and decline. He is seeing the real, hopeful, patriotic, kind America that European tourists rarely traverse. And he loves it. That’s why Freddy is a phenomenon.

Understanding Western Civilization is understanding that these were built by the same type of people. The most righteous and terrifying force in the world is a people who understand when to pray and when to fight.

Businesses need to relearn proper phone etiquette: If you're calling me, and I don't expect your call, it is proper to announce yourself, what company you're with, and why you are calling after I pick up the phone and say "hello." Asking "Is this Peter?" as the first thing you say is NOT proper etiquette. I will hang up on you, even if we've spoken before. I'm over your rudeness. Enough is enough.

The most shameful part of the murder by Karmelo Anthony is how the black community rallied behind him The most shameful part of the death of George Floyd is how the black community rioted and murdered in response The problem with the black community is that it rallies behind criminals, so long as they are black and they are pitted against whites The black community endorses criminality, and it is openly racist against whites, and the anti-white racism is overwhelming And somehow we are supposed to think this is OK They are racist, and they endorse criminality and even riot and murder, and the worse their behavior is, the more we are supposed to think they are victims That's not how this works When a person murders someone else in cold blood, that person is a predator When a community rallies behind a predator who murders in cold blood, that community is evil A community is not more of a victim the more evil it behaves Evil does not magically transform into victimhood because a person or community is black There is not one standard for right and wrong based on skin color Murdering someone else does make someone a victim It makes someone an evil murderer And white liberals who get this backwards -- who dismiss the blood of innocent victims and who call murderers victims -- these white liberals are evil It would be nice if we could say that this is all a matter of opinion, that good and evil are relative and so on But death, murder, the celebration of death and murder, the excusing of murderers -- all of these have real-world consequences They destroy people's lives These are not theoretical issues These are innocent lives of people who might have someday contributed to society -- taken for no reason in cold blood Murder is not relative or theoretical It's evil Whether or not murder is evil does not depend on skin color Murder is evil Unreal

Everyone is slowly dying inside; - Some stopped taking photos. - Some lost interest in new clothes. - Some hate love now. - Some got used to loneliness. - Some stopped meeting friends. - Some stopped comparing. Some just accepted what they couldn’t achieve. The same people who once dreamed big are now just pushing through days. Check on your people. Not everyone is okay.

“There is no greater indictment of judges than the fact that honest men are afraid to go into court, while criminals swagger out through its revolving doors.” — Thomas Sowell

What’s happening in California is nothing new. It’s the same playbook they used to steal 2020. First they send out mass mail-in ballots, to everyone, even those who didn’t request them, and dead people still on the voter rolls. Then they harvest all these floating ballots. Then they delay counting for day/weeks, in deep blue counties they control, so they can continue to ship all these fraudulent mail-in ballots to the tabulation center, until they have enough to steal the election. And that’s how it’s done. Completely untraceable election fraud. This is why the Dems don’t want voter ID. It’s why they don’t want paper ballots. It’s why they don’t want same-day elections. It’s why they don’t want to clean up voter rolls. This is how just a few deep blue counties in swing states, are able to overturn entire state and federal elections. This is why securing elections is so important, whether that be via the SAVE America Act, or some sort of executive action. Until this problem is solved, we do not have a nation.
