The federal Homestead Act, which was enacted in 1862, offered free 160-acre parcels of land to anyone willing to settle on them. After five years, these "homesteaders" would become the owners of the land, as long as certain conditio https://t.co/alu6YtAMVX
What I've learned from World Cup travelers this week.
- Apparently the US is the only country with A/C
- Other countries don't use seasoning on their food
- You can only buy a gallon of milk in the USA
- You have to pay for a 2nd or 3rd pop at a restaurant outside of America. No free refills
- They love to party just like us and boy are they fun!
- Only we do flyovers before games
- America's spring is hotter than Europe's summer
-We have a lot to learn when it comes to soccer chants
- Ranch Dressing is a delicacy to be treasured
- Their media lies to them just like ours does to us
Can we keep em?
Can I tell you something honest? You just get a bad rap from the media. The media makes it out as there is always something bad going on.
It's a fantastic country, you made us feel welcomed.
A German fan said it best:
“If you want to hate America, watch the news. If you want to love America, drive through it.”
Over 3.6 million fans packed stadiums for the World Cup, breaking attendance records. Millions came from every corner of the globe and experienced what the headlines never show: welcoming people, incredible hospitality, and a country unlike any other.
The media sells outrage. America sells itself.
Elon Musk has created massive wealth. It’s wealth, it’s not cash. It represents an accumulation of assets that are being used to create goods and services for all. Some want to take this and give it away to be consumed by others. It’s called “eating your seed corn.” A perfect way to guarantee a smaller crop, less growth and lower standards of living for everyone. Socialism creates more equality by making “everyone” poor. Except for the leaders, of course, who will somehow take more from this system.
…answer to their problems, not the cause of them. The crazy housing bill in Congress is a case in point. It will make things worse, not better. Both sides keep growing government and creating new elites, while simultaneously hating elites.
This is a huge dilemma to me.
as long as they are “my kind of elites” then I’ll support them.
The Founders hated “elites,” so they gave us freedom from them, and a small “g” government.
George Washington went home!
It seems both sides have completely shifted and now view a big “G” government as the…
I agree with @MarkHalperin today in @TheFP “Distrust of elites has become a defining feature of both the right and the left.” Why then can’t we drain the swamp or cut spending? Giving “new elites” even more money to fight the “old elites” seems counterproductive. So, I guess…

Mamdani is getting a brutal reality check now that the same socialist fantasy he sold to voters is running straight into the people who actually keep New York’s economy alive. It is easy to scream about taxing billionaires into oblivion when you are campaigning, but it looks very different when JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, Ken Griffin, and the business world start making it clear that capital can walk, jobs can move, and the people who pay the bills are not trapped inside your ideology. Jeff Bezos nailed the entire problem with one line: if Amazon ran like New York City schools, packages would take six weeks, cost extra fees, and still show up wrong. That is exactly the difference between people who build things and politicians who think broken systems can be fixed by punishing everyone successful. Socialism always sounds compassionate until the money starts leaving, the services get worse, the taxpayers get squeezed, and the same politicians who promised a revolution end up begging the rich not to leave.
If you have a child or other loved one with special needs you may want to establish a special needs trust. A special needs trust (or supplemental needs trust) is an estate planning tool that can help provide for the needs of an ind https://t.co/A6GPhN9Qfn
