graphic designer & author. tired of all the hypocrisy. FL Gen X--I grew up when things were somewhat normal. I hope and pray the US continues to wake up! ๐ฝ๐บ๐ธ
This is the "do I want to follow this person?" post... And I'm writing it on September 11, 2025. 24 years after 9/11 and just one day after Charlie Kirkโs murder shook me to my core, like the worldโs gone madder than I thought. His voice for truth was silenced, and it woke me up even more to the stakes weโre facing.
Thread below for my story, my views, and why Iโm fighting. Follow if youโre in!

Sorry for what?
You have absolutely nothing to be sorry for. Neither does any member of the team. You guys were amazing.
One bad game. It happens. I'm not hurt over it. Sure, I would've liked for you guys to win. But I'm still very proud of how far you guys went.
You proved that soccer is becoming more of a sport in the US. That every world cup, Team USA gets a little better.
THANK YOU!
For the nation. For the flag. ๐บ๐ธ๐ฆ
P.S. My daughter played soccer for 15 years, from age 5 until age 20 when she had a career ending injury. I lived and breathed soccer during that time. I'm sad to say I now only watch it every 2 years for both world cups. Will always support Team USA!
You mean the headline spin relying on a semantic redefinition by the Judge after the fact. The jury said not rape (legal sense). Judge said "well, sort of rape in common talk." Media ran with the spin.
You mean the grifter Carroll who just wanted to jump on the #MeToo bandwagon in order to sell her book?
You mean the scam of a civil trial where she couldn't remember much and constantly contridicted herself? But she had vividly recalled the dress she wore that day and still had it? Sorry. But as a women if you experienced that, you'd burn that dress. It would be an awful memory.
You mean the case that was funded by Reid Hoffman (a known anti-trumper)?
You mean the grifter Carroll who loved watching the Apprentice? If she was truly raped, there is no way she would enjoy watching a show with the person who supposedly raped her. No way.
You mean the case that was allowed to happen for a one-year window of "Adult Survivors Act" that allowed cases to move forward during a one-year period, even though the statue of limitation had already passed? And the lawsuit was ready on the first day the window opened?
You mean the civil circus case in deep-blue Manhattan?
Anyone with common sense and not suffering from TDS can see the scam of all of this.
@JesterJum Uh no. Absolutely not. I live in Florida. It's 74 when we're home. It's 80 when away (and that's only when we're away for several days in a row). And 72 when sleeping.
Each year 40,000 children are born to mothers who arenโt citizens, who flew to America to have children who get birthright citizenship.
They pay $40k-100k to birth tourism agencies, stay in 5 star hotels, commit visa fraud, then fly home.
Birthright citizenship is being abused.
Yep! For 2.5 years. Started (officially) working at age 15. Luckily, I had a grandparent, mom, and friends who were able to cart me to work. I worked at an amusement park, so I often went in on my mom's way into work. Then would stay until park close (either working or playing in the park).
I even bought my first car before I had my drivers license. Bought the car then we drove it the next day to get my license. A heap of junk Ford Tempo that was a burnt orange/red with dents all over. Paid $1200 cash for it. It got me through my senior year of high school and first year of college.

and if those aluminum ice trays got slightly wet and you stuck your finger to them . . . it's like the flag pole scene from A Christmas Story
@dbongino I was blessed to have all my grandparents up until the age of 27. Lost my last one as age 48. What i wasn't blessed with was having the foresight to sit and ask questions about their journey.
@JebraFaushay The saddest thing about this ... it's Royal Caribbean's Royal Beach Club in the Bahamas. Are they taking over my favorite cruise line now? ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ I go on RC all the time.
@DissentFu I'm 52 years old. Grew up dirt poor. Started working at age 15 and never stopped. I choose to live in a way that allows me to save for the future, including retirement. I own a home. I have a bachelor's but chose not to get a worthless master.
Choices.
