History was made Friday night as Team USA rolled past Paraguay 4-1 in its 2026 FIFA World Cup opener in Southern California.

The victory was historic in more ways than one. It was the first time the U.S. had won a World Cup match by three goals since 1930 — when America also defeated Paraguay.

The four-goal outburst also marked the first time the United States has scored at least four goals in a World Cup match. Folarin Balogun, 24, also made history, becoming the first American player since 1930 to score multiple goals in a World Cup game.

HORRIFYING: Eight pro-Palestinian students at the University of Michigan have been indicted for allegedly vandalizing the homes of and plotting to poison and murder members and families of the local Jewish and pro-Israeli community.

The opposite would never happen, but can you imagine if it did? The country would be in an uproar. Unfortunately, the extreme violence and terrorism of the pro-Palestinian movement have been too normalized.

Even worse, one of them is a former staffer for Abdul El-Sayed, the Muslim candidate for Senate in Michigan.

They are now facing up to 20 years in prison.

🇺🇸 AMERICA 250 CELEBRATIONS IN MONMOUTH COUNTY, NJ!

Beautiful patriotism on full display!

Middletown painted RED, WHITE & BLUE stripes down the center of historic Kings Highway — a road that played a key role in the American Revolution. Monmouth Beach turned intersections into giant flags and honored local fallen heroes.

Small towns going big for America’s 250th birthday! These celebrations remind us of our shared history and the blessings of freedom.

What a great way to kick off summer and honor our nation.
