Dave Ramsey explains how manhood and masculinity became "toxic" and why it led to 7.2 million men sitting at home doing NOTHING every day…👀

“Men have been devalued and trivialized and been the villain or the clown of everything for a good 20 years. You don't see a TV commercial where the dad is the hero... he's an idiot. Or a sitcom where the dad is the hero... he's an idiot.

The 12-year-old is the smart one, and they smart off through the whole script. And the dad's a doofus and the mother rolls her eyes at the doofus that she picked as a life partner.

If you do that to any segment of the economy long enough, eventually they begin to believe it. And so we have 7.2 million men that are able-bodied, able-minded, that are not engaged in the workplace right now.

They're doing nothing. They're sitting because the entire culture has said, 'You're a doofus, you're a buffoon, you're valueless. Manhood, masculinity is toxic by its very nature, and so you're of no value.'

And the problem is it's destroying not only economics, but social fabric as well because we do know the data on kids, particularly daughters. The cues they take from their dad are devastatingly impactful, good or bad.

And so an engaged dad who builds confidence and, gives their daughter hugs growing up, until she leaves home and even after she leaves home, builds a confident daughter. A daughter that is not sexually promiscuous. A daughter that finishes college. A daughter that will not be victimized in the marketplace. That comes from their dads. The data shows that.

And so when the dad is not engaged, it's horrible for the social fabric.”

From the Moon to the White House — Artemis II is just the beginning.

Artemis II has reached its maximum distance from Earth.

On the far side of the Moon, 252,756 miles away, Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy have now traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history and now begin their journey home. Before they left, they said they hoped this mission would be forgotten, but it will be remembered as the moment people started to believe that America can once again do the near-impossible and change the world.

Congratulations to this incredible crew and the entire NASA team, our international and commercial partners, but this mission isn’t over until they’re under safe parachutes, splashing down into the Pacific.

My duty officer had the privilege of receiving a phone call last night from Commander Matt “POJO” Dominick (a former Pukin’ Dog) while in orbit. So incredible! Once a Pukin’ dog, always a Pukin’ Dog! Thanks POJO! Your actions are inspirational and impact squadron and morale!

@elonmusk @teslaownersSV How about something the same size of the Ford Expedition Max. I have four kids, my wife and I - family of six. If Tesla had a model that would have the same room, support and potentially towing power, I’d buy one tomorrow. 🇺🇸💪🏼
