The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.
And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.
Here is what they are discovering:
Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.
Then they found the grocery stores.
Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.
The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.
They finally understand why we do not have trains.
We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.
Why would we need trains.
The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.
Welcome to America!
The greatest country on earth.
Has anybody thought through the possibility that @realDonaldTrump understood that drawing attention to what the Pope and his liberal cardinals were saying and doing about foreign policy and illegal aliens was going to make Catholics realize just how much their church leaders were interfering in politics in favor of leftist agenda items?
The whole billions in funding designed to import illegals thing is not going to be popular, but until now, how many people really understood it? And now that I understand it, it’s entirely possible they’ll be more irritated with the Church for doing those things than with Trump for pointing out that the church is doing those things.
And do you think Catholics aren’t going to see the hypocrisy of abortion fanatics suddenly getting down on their knees and genuflecting?
I don’t know for sure. I’m a protestant. We have dumb guitars in church. It’s a Catholic thing. But I’m betting that a lot of Catholics don’t like what a Church liberal hierarchy is using their clerical positions to push.
The 𝕏 algorithm is open source and updated frequently, but you do not point to any alleged bias or suggest corrections, choosing instead to leave for platforms that everyone knows have a strong bias for political correctness, which just another way of saying “lies”.
You used to be about freedom and truth, but now you want to destroy freedom of speech and artificially suppress viewpoints that run contrary to the lunatic-left activism that drives your every action.
Shame on you.

Ted...shut the fuck up.
Your latest tweet isn’t just stupid; it’s a masterclass in legal malpractice from a former JAG who apparently slept through every briefing on the Law of Armed Conflict, the UCMJ, and basic constitutional order.
Striking an enemy’s bridges and power plants...dual-use infrastructure that moves troops, fuels missile factories, powers command nodes, and sustains the very war machine choking the Strait of Hormuz…is not a war crime.
It is textbook military necessity under customary international law, the Hague and Geneva frameworks we actually follow, and every U.S. operational precedent from the Gulf War to Kosovo.
Civilian hardship is tragic.
It is also lawful collateral when the target offers a definite military advantage, proportionality is assessed in real time, and distinction is maintained.
The mullahs turned their own civilians into human shields around those sites while they slaughter their people and arm proxies killing Americans.
That doesn’t magically immunize the targets.
You know this, or you damn well should.
So either your intellectual horsepower has atrophied from years of performative swamp politics, or this is calculated partisan sabotage designed to fracture the chain of command and erode good order and discipline in the ranks right when it matters most.
You, a sitting Congressman, publicly ordering the Joint Chiefs to disobey lawful orders from the Commander-in-Chief?
That isn’t oversight.
That’s reckless subversion of Article II authority, the very thing UCMJ Articles 92 and 94 were written to crush. Troops don’t get to cherry-pick orders based on whatever partisan fever dream a Twitter JAG cosplayer tweets from Capitol Hill.
Lawful orders are obeyed.
Manifestly illegal ones are not.
“Decimating enemy logistics” is not illegal…it’s how you win wars without bleeding forever.
How the hell did someone of your demonstrably low intellectual caliber ever claw his way into Congress?
The psychology is brutally simple:
your voters form a self-selecting echo chamber of even lower-information, ideologically captured citizens who crave theatrical moral preening over strategic competence or constitutional fidelity.
They don’t elect statesmen; they anoint Twitter therapists to soothe their Trump Derangement Syndrome and signal their superiority while the real world burns.
Every single day you wake up and commit to posting the most brain-dead, legally bankrupt, treason-adjacent drivel imaginable, then pat yourself on the back for “empathy.”
The Republic deserves far better than performative clowns like you pretending to lecture warfighters from the safety of a microphone.
Sit down, Counselor.
The adults are handling the enemy. You’re just embarrassing yourself…and every service member who actually understands the law you pretend to cite.

There it is again! 👀
Trump calls NATO a “paper tiger”, then criticizes South Korea, Japan, and Australia, for not helping us, despite benefiting from our protection.
I’ve been suggesting that Trump is setting up a withdrawal of our military footprint abroad, and will consolidate our military presence to the Western hemisphere. Trump appears to be laying the ground work.
I think the end goal is to withdraw from NATO, which will in turn end the war between Ukraine/Russia, then bring all the troops home to our region, then leave the areas of influence in the hands of the nations in each respective region. After Deep State destabilization assets, i.e. terrorists/cartels, have been neutralized, the need for our military presence around the globe, will no longer be necessary.
I think Trump is leveraging the situation in Iran, to show the public why we need to withdraw from NATO and bring the troops home from Germany, South Korea, Japan, Australia, and more.
I think Trump is using Iran to end the Cold War between the US and Russia/China, and prevent full-scale WW3 from ever happening in the future. Trump wants to make a deal with Russia and China, and this surely will include removing our standing armies from their doorstep.
I think Trump is using Iran to reshape the global order to a “multi-polar world”, where a variety of nations hold spheres of influence, as opposed to the complete US hegemony. A world where we are allies/trade partners with Russia and China, not enemies on a collision course for world war.
I think we are witnessing a historic global transformation.
