I warned you in 2008 that the Left would try to erase our history. Under the Biden administration, the National Archives even put trigger warnings on the online versions of the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and other crucial documents. Thankfully, the Trump Administration is working to reverse all of this nonsense. But I'd rather not take any more chances with our history. As much of it as possible MUST be in private hands.

That’s why I am opening a brick-and-mortar @aje1776 museum that will be very different from anything you have ever seen. We are building a place to tell the true, unvarnished story of America. The good, the bad, and yes, progressives, even the very ugly parts. We can’t forget how our nation was built. That's how empires fall.

The Atlantic just ran a piece called "The Age of Reading Is Over." We are literally losing the ability to read anything longer than an Instagram post. This is not good. Think about history for a second. During the slave trade, what was the one thing punishable by death? Teaching a slave to read. Why? Because tyrants have always known that literacy is the ultimate key to human freedom.

Less than half of American adults read a single book in 2022. It’s so bad that a staffer at Harvard actually complained that assigning books to students is "arbitrarily withholding information" because it forces them to use a "difficult medium." Let that sink in. IVY LEAGUE STUDENTS have a hard time reading something and then paraphrasing it.

If we stop reading, we go straight back to the dark ages. We'll be sitting around waiting for a government agency or an AI script to tell us what the Constitution means through a paraphrased post on X.

80% of Americans over 40 have chronic back pain.

Most think they need surgery, injections or medication to fix it.

But the real fix is strengthening the muscles that support and protect your spine.

Here are 7 exercises to bulletproof your back after 40 (bookmark this):🧵

[Brett Boettcher @brettboettcher1]

Women have been lied to about strength training.

High reps and light weights don’t make you “toned”.

If you are a woman over 40, do these 7 exercises to get leaner, stronger and feel 10 years younger:

Played hard all game. MSU came up big late. I didn’t like a few important whistles. Better shooting night (or full squad) and this could have been epic. Go Cards.

You don't need a gym to get in great shape.

You just need 20-30 minutes and your own bodyweight.

Here are the 6 best exercises you can do from home to build muscle, burn fat and stay healthy for life (bookmark this): 🧵

The most fucked up thing about modern life is that being healthy requires you to actively fight everything around you

The default food is poisoned. The default schedule destroys your sleep. The default stress level is chronic. The default medical system manages symptoms instead of finding causes. The default cooking oils are industrial waste. The default response to feeling like shit is a pill

You have to FIGHT to eat real food. FIGHT to sleep properly. FIGHT to find a doctor who investigates instead of prescribes. FIGHT to avoid seed oils at every restaurant. FIGHT to manage stress in a world designed to keep your cortisol maxed 24/7

Your great-grandfather didn't do any of this. He ate what was available and it was real. He worked physically and slept because he was tired. His food came from soil that wasn't depleted. His stress was seasonal. His gut was intact because nothing was designed to destroy it

You're not failing at health because you lack discipline. The entire system you live in is engineered to make you sick and sell you the cure

Processed food creates inflammation. The doctor prescribes an anti-inflammatory. Seed oils wreck your hormones. The clinic prescribes TRT. Sugar crashes destroy your mood. The psychiatrist prescribes an SSRI. Each problem creates a customer

I stopped fighting individual symptoms and started rejecting the whole system. Real food. Enough of it. No seed oils. Gut repair. Sleep

Within months I felt like a different species. And I was just eating the way humans ate for 10,000 years before the last 50 fucked everything up

The system is designed to make you a patient

Opt out

Mikel Brown Jr. & Ryan Conwell of @LouisvilleMBB are the only Division I teammate duo in the last 30 seasons to combine for 75+ points, 15+ rebounds & 15+ threes made in a game.

Only one NBA duo has ever done it: Damian Lillard & Nassir Little during Lillard's 71-point game.

First time in program history we've had two 30-point scorers in a single game:

Good morning.
I can’t stop thinking about this.

[DK🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸 @1Nicdar]

130 schools said no.
He led the losingest program in college football history to a national championship anyway.
Fernando Mendoza was a 2-star recruit from Miami.

He tried to walk on at his hometown school. They passed.
So did FIU.
So did FAU.
So did everyone else.

At 17, he was sitting in his bedroom, crying over a silent recruiting inbox—after driving to 18 camps with his dad and sending highlights to more than 100 programs.
Not one FBS offer.
His only option? Yale. No scholarship. No NFL path.

Everyone told him to be “realistic.”
“Know your place.”
“Be grateful.”
He didn’t listen.
Because Mendoza understood something most people miss:
The worst outcome isn’t failing.
It’s never getting the chance to try.

Two weeks before signing day in 2022, his phone rang.
Cal needed a body. One offer. Out of 134 schools.
He took it.
He arrived as the third-string quarterback.
Spent a year on the scout team.
Lost his first four starts.
Got sacked 41 times behind a broken offensive line.

Still got up. Every time.
Then Cal brought in a transfer instead of building around him.
So Mendoza left the only school that had ever said yes.
He transferred to Indiana—the losingest program in college football history.

People laughed.
“Career suicide.”
“Graveyard program.”
“Nobody wins there.”
One coach told him something different:
“I’m going to make you the best Fernando Mendoza possible.”
That was enough.
Mendoza wasn’t just playing for football.
His mother has battled multiple sclerosis for 18 years.

Before every snap, he thought of her.
“My mother is my why.”
Indiana went 16–0.
Beat six Top-10 teams.
Won their first Big Ten title since 1945.
Mendoza threw 41 touchdowns.
Won the Heisman—first in school history.
First Cuban-American to ever do it.

Then came the title game.
Miami. Near his hometown.
Fourth-and-4. Season on the line.
Quarterback draw.
The kid 134 schools rejected spun through defenders and dove into the end zone.

Game over.
Indiana—national champions.
The losingest program became the best team in America.
All because a 17-year-old refused to believe “no” was the end.

Rankings don’t decide your ceiling.
Gatekeepers don’t write your ending.
Being overlooked isn’t a verdict—it’s a starting point.

Sometimes all you need is one shot…
and the courage to bet on yourself when nobody else will.
Don’t quit.
