Proud to announce that the Army National Guard achieved its FY 2026 recruiting mission of 37,155 guardsmen yesterday.
This marks the THIRD year in a row that the ARNG has hit this achievement and the FIRST time it has achieved this level of sustained recruiting success since FY 2013.
ARNG is postured for another successful recruiting year in FY 2027. Job well done, @USNationalGuard!
I bought a Tesla. The choice was simple; do I want a car or do I want a car + driver.
FSD is as good as everyone says. Moreover, FSD will only get better at driving while I will only get worse.
At similar price point there really is no reason to buy any other car.
@DestinLegarie You’re right and people completely overlook it every time you hear someone say “why buy an Xbox?”. Because you’re buying into an ecosystem where you can play anywhere, including your couch if you buy a console.
The only other ecosystem who can claim that of recent is Steam.
To the Americans:
I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.
And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:
You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.
This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.
Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.
This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.
But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.
This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.
And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:
Thank God for the United States.
Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.
Long may your admirable country dominate the world.
Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.
May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.
Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.
Thank God for the USA.
Happy 250th.
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson
As we commemorate 250 years of independence, I call on our allies and embassies around the world to join us in celebrating the American principles of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Happy Independence Day, and may God bless the United States of America.

I just received a briefing from U.S. Southern Command on the ongoing efforts in Venezuela.
Thank you to our brave servicemen and women and other rescue crews supporting relief and recovery efforts on the ground.
It is critical that all humanitarian aid and resources remain under U.S. oversight. NOT ONE DIME should go to Delcy Rodríguez, Diosdado Cabello, or any part of their brutal and corrupt regime.
The Maduro regime, now led by Delcy, cannot be trusted with a single dollar intended for the Venezuelan people.
